Chapter 505: The Sick Prince's Little Wild Cat (21)
Xie Sui slowly walked into the main hall with the cat in his arms.
He sat at the last table on his right, with a table of delicate snacks and wines.
Soon, the princes and princesses arrived one after another.
The pomp is bigger than the other, and probably the most humble is Xie Sui, the seventh prince, who doesn't even have a palace person to serve.
"Brother Seventh Emperor, have you been in better shape lately?" As soon as Xie Junheng arrived, he greeted Xie Sui.
Xie Sui covered his mouth: "Ahem, cough, cough......" After a heart-rending cough, he waved his hand, "It's still the same, thank you Brother Huang for your concern." ”
This look, no matter how you look at it, is sick and weak Xizi.
He hadn't drunk water since morning, so that his lips looked chapped and his sick face looked more realistic, so that these people could not see the slightest flaw.
That's right, Xie Sui is pretending to be sick.
He came out of the fetus, and he did have a little weakness, but after eating the tonic stolen by the kitten in the past few years, he has been recuperated for a long time, and he has already recovered.
He used to think it was the effect of tonic, but since he suspected that the cat he raised was a demon, he felt more and more that his health had nothing to do with her.
Xie Sui, who has a deputy personality, has long known that this third emperor brother has bad intentions, after all, this person covets his cat, and only the fool of the master Ge will believe that this person has no scheming.
He and the master's personality do not communicate with each other, and the communication is through letters.
Two years ago, Xie Junheng sent a doctor to see him and sent him some precious tonics.
He never believed that there would be such a thing as brotherhood in the royal family, brotherhood and brotherhood, so he kept an eye on it when he took the medicine, and secretly gave the medicine to the rat to eat, but within a month, the rat died.
The third prince has wolf ambitions and wants to get rid of himself, he knows it, but now he is helpless in the palace, and it is not good to turn his face with him.
As a result, Xie Sui did not let his body be safe, and his weakness disappeared, but his "condition" worsened a little, and he put this huge weakness in front of Xie Junheng to reassure the other party.
The reason why his face was pale was because he had applied a thick layer of odorless ointment, which looked as if he was sick and weak, and he would choke at any time.
-
The eldest prince has also entered the palace, and his temper has become more and more irritable over the years, and his face is full of anger: "Third Emperor Brother, you can beware of this sick man who has passed the illness to you, it is better to stay away from him." ”
Xie Sui only appeared twice in public, and the ministers and young ladies of the family sitting opposite were curious about his identity, and when they heard that it was a sick man in the cold palace, they immediately lost interest, and most of the people who looked at him were disdainful and disdainful.
However, there are many royal affairs, so they obediently watch the excitement as a melon-eating crowd.
Xie Junheng had a fake smile on his face, and he didn't care at all: "How could it be ......?"
He looked at the teenagers in front of him and smiled incomprehensibly.
Over the years, he has grown in strength, and these people are no longer to be feared.
However, even if he could take their lives, Xie Junheng would not kill them easily.
He wants to let them live to see him ascend to the throne, and let them know that the light of fireflies is difficult to compete with the sun and the moon.
Suddenly, Xie Junheng's eyes fell on the cat in Xie Sui's arms, "Hey, this cat is so familiar." ”
As he spoke, Xie Junheng was about to touch it.
Xie Sui hugged Shi Yu and dodged away without a trace: "Ah Hua is afraid of life, and when she encounters a living person, she will scratch people, and it is not good to accidentally hurt the imperial brother." ”
Xie Junheng looked at Shi Yu suspiciously: "Oh? Is it? ”
Xie Junheng didn't say anything more, but his gaze became deeper when he stared at Shi Yu.
How did this cat look so much like the one who ran away?
And Shi Yu behaved like an ordinary cat at this time, only licking her paws, as if she couldn't understand human words.
But no matter what Shi Yu does, in Xie Sui's eyes, she is cute and loving.
-
finally made it to the emperor's appearance.
"The emperor has arrived! The Queen Mother has arrived! The Queen Mother has arrived! ”
As a shrill voice of a eunuch sounded, in an instant, the hall was silent, and everyone bowed down to salute, "Weichen knocks to see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the queen mother, the queen mother, the queen mother, the queen ”
The voice resounded through the hall, and I saw the bright yellow figure slowly sit down, and then raised his hand again, "You don't have to be polite. ”
"Emperor Xie!"
The emperor said two opening words succinctly.
Then the eunuch read the list of gifts sent by the courtiers, a very long volume, and I don't know how long it was.
After reading the gift list, it was half an hour, which also included the birthday gifts sent by the envoys of various countries, the sound of silk and bamboo gradually rose, and the dancers entered the venue, and the hall slowly became lively for a while.
The banquet is very boring, it is nothing more than the emperor saying a few words, then toasting, and then letting the minister's children perform, observing whose son is handsome and has good morals, and then observing whose daughter is good-looking and talented, and it is convenient to marry in the future.
Although they are still young, there are some marriageable ones.
Shi Yu stared at the pastries on the table with a pair of cat pupils, stretched out his tongue and licked his little paws, looking like a greedy cat.
The young man took a piece of pastry, his fingers were slender and jade-white, and he looked like a pampered nobleman, and put the pastry in front of her: "Ah Hua, do you want to eat it?" ”
The boy's voice was also clear.
Shi Yu's little head nodded.
The boy fed her the peach blossom crisp.
A small round one, she swallowed it all in one gulp, and swallowed it without chewing, but it was stuck in her throat, and her cat face was red.
She saw the fruit wine next to it, and licked it without thinking about it.
When the fruit wine went down, Shi Yu felt that she was getting hotter and hotter, and the big hands under her neck were also hot, and the hair on her whole body was about to burn.
Some have a dry mouth.
She looked at Xie Sui and thought to her for some reason, he looked delicious.
The kitten's blue eyes were misty.
-
Before Xie Sui could see the abnormality of the kitten's body, the emperor spoke: "A few days ago, the queen talked to me about the marriage of Lao Qi, and she has already seen several noble girls?" ”
The queen smiled cooperatively: "Isn't it, the health of the Seventh Prince is not good, and this palace thinks it may be useful to follow the folk custom of Chongxi." ”
Xie Sui lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes covered the dark light in his eyes, and he hurriedly stood up and said to forgive: "Queen Xie's mother is beautiful, but her sons really have no intention of marrying." ”
But no one listened to him carefully, and the queen said to herself: "Miss Li Ruyu of the Li family is just at the marriageable age, mellow and full, honest and lovely, and the palace looks good." ”
Hearing this, a chubby and bulging girl who was gnawing on chicken legs on the opposite side hurriedly got up and saluted: "Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother, I like the Seventh Prince to be so soft and weak." ”
This caused a burst of laughter.
Li Ruyu, the third girl of the Li family, grew up in the frontier since she was a child, and only returned to the imperial city last year.
The folk customs of the frontier are already strong, and Li Ruyu likes to eat, drink and have fun, so he gradually raised himself into the figure of a chubby girl.
She doesn't know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, nor embroidery and flower arrangement, but loves to dance knives and guns, and tease cats and dogs.
In addition, Dayi is beautiful for being slender and fair-skinned, and Li Yiyu is fat and dark-skinned......
Like her, she is simply an outlier among the nobles of the family.
Master Li is still afraid that she will not be able to get married, and the dowry is ready, and he will find a good husband for her.
