Chapter 22: The Knife at the Banquet

On the day of the birthday banquet, Lixiao deliberately put on his best-looking clothes, tied his favorite hairband, and deliberately smeared hair oil, so fine that every strand of hair was in the most perfect state.

Then he carefully placed the bag of candy he had made in the middle of the garment, so that the sugar would not melt or be lost.

When he was ready, he trotted all the way to the Imperial Garden, full of joy.

It's already overcrowded.

When many people saw him, they would still show disdain, if it was in the past, Lixiao would definitely make them roll their eyes and pay the price.

But today, he has only one goal, and that is to find the girl in his memory.

In the past five years, although he wanted to go out to meet her more than once, the old emperor kept a very close eye on him, and even asked for his permission to go to the imperial garden every day, so gradually, Lixiao also dispelled this idea.

He could only rely on what he remembered to imagine what she would look like when she grew up.

"Why are you here?"

A voice with a deep sense of disgust sounded.

The second prince, Qin Yue, led a group of followers to swagger and blocked the way away from Xiaoxiao.

Li Xiao frowned: "Get out of the way, I don't want to quarrel with you today, don't bother me." ”

Qin Yue relied on the fact that he was a birthday star today, and he was arrogant: "Coincidentally, I want to quarrel with you today!" ”

"I'm just inviting you on a routine basis, don't you know who you are? It's really embarrassing to lick your face to come to my birthday party. ”

Li Xiao said coldly: "I thought that you would not say such childish words again when you are an adult today, but I didn't expect you to go back the more you live." ”

Qin Yue said angrily: "You are so bold! Look at me if I don't teach you a good lesson today! ”

As he spoke, he beckoned his classmates to go up with him.

Li Xiao subconsciously covered the sugar in his arms, took half a step back and said: "You can think clearly, it is bright in broad daylight, if you hurt me, even the queen mother will not be able to protect you!" ”

Qin Yue narrowed his eyes, stared at his hand and said, "What is hidden in your arms?" Take it out! ”

"Nothing!"

"Okay, you, I said why did you suddenly come to the banquet and do it for a long time to steal something!" Qin Yue grabbed Lixiao's hand with a wicked smile, "Hand it over!" ”

Li Xiao covered the sugar in his arms with one hand, and pulled desperately with Qin Yue with the other hand, and in a hurry, he actually scratched Qin Yue's face with one claw.

Qin Yue cried on the spot, and no matter how old and tall he was than Lixiao, he just cried and went to find the queen to be coquettish.

Li Xiao let out a long sigh of relief, tidied up his appearance, and continued to search for Su Yunting's figure in the crowd.

The queen was so angry that she was about to call someone to find Lixiao, when she heard a boy weakly say, "Queen Mother, it's better not to make a big deal about it." ”

It was Qin Chuan who spoke.

He was fourteen or fifteen years old at that time, thin and lean, a lot shorter than the other princes standing together, but there was an unyielding look on his face, which made him look very special.

The queen gave him a blank look: "How can you speak here?" ”

Qin Chuan saluted again and said: "Queen Mother, this was originally just a child's fight, and it is normal to have bumps, not to mention that the imperial brother is older than him but lost to him, if this matter is made big, it will make people laugh." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about! This prince didn't lose! Qin Yue shouted unconvinced.

"The second emperor brother is naturally wise and martial, but as we all know, the prince is a monster ......"

The queen's eyes lit up suddenly: "Good emperor, I'll leave this matter to you, don't let the queen mother down." ”

Qin Chuan immediately took the order: "Yes." ”

Out of the pavilion, a teenage girl blocked Qin Chuan's way.

"My name is Su Yunting, your eyes are so bright, as beautiful as the stars in the sky, can I be friends with you?"

Qin Chuan said coldly: "I still have something, don't bother me." ”

The young Su Yunting only felt that the little brother in front of her was so cold, she liked it so much!

"What's your name?" Su Yunting didn't care about his indifference, and followed in a hurry.

Qin Chuan walked all the way, and she asked all the way, from name to preference, birthday, and even asked twice about how many times his foot clothes were wrapped.

"You're so long-winded!" Qin Chuan really couldn't bear it anymore.

She pestered him like this and chattered, how could she let him complete the queen's commission, how could she brush up on her presence in front of the queen?

If you want to blame his biological mother Concubine Li, who was born from a humble background and was not favored, she died early, leaving him alone and miserable in the palace where he was most interested in bloodline.

He must earn a piece of the world on his own!

Su Yunting said aggrievedly: "The first time I participated in this kind of banquet, no one paid attention to me, and I didn't follow you because I liked you!" ”

Qin Chuan was stunned: "The first time? Whose lady are you? ”

"My father is the richest medicinal herb emperor in the whole capital!" Su Yunting looked proud.

Qin Chuan's heart was full of disdain: "You are the one who came in by stuffing money into the queen's mother's house." ”

"That's right!" Su Yunting didn't seem to notice the disdain in his tone, and still said proudly.

Qin Chuan looked at Lixiao not far away, and his eyes rolled and said, "You like me?" ”

Su Yunting nodded again and again: "Your eyes are very good-looking, I like it very much!" ”

He pointed to Lixiao and said, "I don't like him, if you can help me teach him, I will be friends with you." ”

Su Yunting agreed without thinking about it.

Li Xiao craned his neck to look in the crowd, and suddenly, his eyes lit up.

His intuition told him that the girl who was walking towards him was Su Yunting.

"Do you remember me!" He greeted him excitedly, took out the bag of candy and stuffed it into Su Yunting's hand, "I'm ......"

However, before he finished speaking, he saw Su Yunting throw the candy on the ground: "I don't care who you are!" In the future, if you dare to provoke Brother Qin Chuan and them again, I, Su Yunting, will definitely not let you go! ”

He didn't know why things had turned out the way they were.

"I'm talking to you, are you deaf?" Su Yunting said viciously.

Lixiao lowered his head and saw that the sugar he had worked so hard to make was scattered all over the ground, and he only said blankly: "My sugar ......"

"Make an offer!" Su Yunting said disdainfully, "Isn't it just a few pieces of candy, my father has money!" ”

"Why are you ...... like this" Lixiao's eyes were full of tears, he didn't believe that he had waited so long, but what he had waited for was such a result.

"What, why? Don't you understand people? Look at what kind of clothes you are wearing, the style is old-fashioned, and the workmanship is very poor! Well? Do you still use hair oil? Oh my God, men still use hair oil, do you have a habit of breaking sleeves? Hahaha! ”

These words were like a sharp knife, piercing into Lixiao's heart.

He covered his ears and fled the noisy banquet amid Su Yunting's merciless ridicule......
