This kind of banquet is not easy to wear too plain. The girl who took off her cloak wore a honey-colored cardigan and a garnet-red skirt, and because she lowered her head, she only saw a simple golden hairpin in her hair and two round pearls of different lengths hanging down.

Emperor Xingyuan was curious in his heart, and his face was full of surprise: "No courtesy."

Xin Yu stood up straight, still half-bowing her head.

It was rude to look directly at Tianyan, but at this time, Emperor Xingyuan was a little dissatisfied with this rule.

He came all the way to see what Miss Kou looked like. Just look at the top of your head, and let the palace maid lower her head in the palace.

"Miss Kou donated 50,000 taels of silver to the disaster area, which touched me. Miss Kou should look up, don't be restrained."

A thick blanket was spread on the ground in the hall, and I don't know which palace lady dropped a small silk flower, which was in the sight of Xin Yu's drooping eyes.

Listening to Emperor Xingyuan's words, her heart was full of turmoil, but her face was silent, and she slowly raised her head.

Seeing Xin Yu's appearance clearly, Emperor Xingyuan was stunned for a moment.

That face is so familiar, especially a pair of long and big eyes, with thin eyelids and slightly upturned tails, and there is a cold sense of distance for no reason.

Emperor Xingyuan was in a daze for a moment.

This girl was born too much like him.

Xin Yu looked at Emperor Xingyuan, and his eyes fluctuated.

She knew that she was somewhat similar to the eldest princess of Zhaoyang, and she couldn't help but guess that she might also have similarities with this person.

But when it was really face-to-face, this excessive resemblance from blood made her panic from the bottom of her heart.

It's really too similar.

The two made eye contact, and the hall was quiet for a short time.

The people present vaguely noticed that the atmosphere was strange, but they didn't dare to stare at the Son of Heaven carefully. Most of the people stared at the ground in a regular manner, and the few who were bold quietly swept with their afterglow, and they couldn't sweep too much.

This is also the reason why although there are rumors that Miss Kou and the eldest princess of Zhaoyang look alike, not many people think about Emperor Xingyuan.

It was Emperor Xingyuan who came back to his senses first, nodded and said, "Miss Kou's righteous act, the people of Dingbei will remember it."

"As a citizen of Great Xia, this is what a folk girl should do."

The two words "people" made Emperor Xingyuan's heart move: "I remember that Miss Kou is the niece of Duan Shaoqing of Taifu Temple."

Duan Shaoqing immediately stood up: "Weichen has seen Your Majesty."

"Duan Shaoqing is exempt." Emperor Xingyuan looked at Duan Shaoqing and looked at it carefully, but found that there was no similarity between the two nephews.

"Miss Kou's father is—"

Duan Shaoqing hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, my sister-in-law Kou Tianming, a Jinshi in the fifth year of Xingyuan, was transferred to the prefect of Wanyang four years ago, and unfortunately passed away......

"I have an impression." Emperor Xingyuan remembered Kou Tianming's appearance, and although he was not impressed, he also made comparisons.

Miss Kou is nothing like her father.

Emperor Xingyuan realized that something was wrong with him, but he couldn't dispel his closeness to the girl in front of him.

He has a lot of children, but his appearance follows his biological mother, and seeing a little girl so similar to him, even if he knows that it has nothing to do with him, he can't help but have a good feeling.

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, he even wanted to give this little girl a small pestle to chat about leisure.

Emperor Xingyuan was still sane, and sighed softly: "Kou Qing was able to raise such an outstanding daughter, which shows his character, and his untimely death is a loss for Great Xia."

Duan Shaoqing nodded with a smile, secretly waiting for Emperor Xingyuan to praise Shaoqing's mansion.

Qingqing was still young when she came to Shaoqing Mansion, could she leave the credit of Shaoqing Mansion in terms of upbringing?

Who knew that Emperor Xingyuan didn't mean to praise Shaoqing's Mansion at all, and his eyes fell back to Xin Yu's face: "Miss Kou has a pure heart and is good-natured, so she should be rewarded." Give a jade Ruyi and a pair of golden hairpins......

As soon as these words came out, everyone didn't dare to look at Emperor Xingyuan openly, and their eyes were on Xin Yu.

50,000 taels of silver in exchange for so many royal gifts, Miss Kou really earned!

Regrets, a hundred regrets.

Among those who regret it, He Qingxiao is not included.

he

Standing in an inconspicuous place, silently observing Emperor Xingyuan, it was easy to discover the emperor's abnormality.

It's because ...... What does Miss Kou look like?

At present, it seems that the emperor has a good impression of Miss Kou because of her resemblance to him, but this good impression is too fragile in front of Miss Kou's secret.

Until now, He Qingxiao couldn't think of any way for Xin Yu to let Emperor Xingyuan take the initiative to investigate Wanyang's affairs, but there was another voice in his heart that made him choose to believe it.

Emperor Xingyuan also knew that his appearance was restrained, and since he satisfied his curiosity to see Miss Kou, it was time to return to the palace.

"Treat you well." It was only at this time that Emperor Xingyuan said the first words to King Xiu since he came in.

King Xiu respectfully should be.

Emperor Xingyuan glanced at Xin Yu again and walked out.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty—" the crowd shouted.

After that, many people went to Xinyu with wine glasses.

King Xiu spoke out at the right time: "Xiao Wang toasts you with a glass."

Only then did people realize that this was a royal banquet, not a usual drinking party.

"His Royal Highness King Jingxiu."

Xin Yu raised his glass and touched his lips, his mind was still with the departing Emperor Xingyuan.

King Xiu's eyes were always on her, and he saw that her expression was calm to the point of almost numbness, and her eyes were heavy and did not show emotion.

After the banquet was dispersed, the snow had not stopped, and King Xiu stepped on the snow to send the guests out, and got a sincere goodbye.

Xin Yu also said goodbye to King Xiu: "Thank you for your hospitality today."

"It's snowy and slippery, Miss Kou be careful." King Xiu gently admonished.

Xin Yu bent her knees and turned to walk to the carriage that was parked not far away.

Xiaolian walked beside her, holding up a bamboo umbrella.

King Xiu watched the snow fall on the blue umbrella in the distance, and the apricot cloak stretched freely behind the girl, and his mood was difficult to distinguish for a while.

He Qingxiao chuckled in his heart.

The king of the show didn't think about Miss Kou-

This speculation sent chills through his body.

He had no position to interfere in the matter of Miss Kou's marriage, but when he thought of the possible relationship between King Xiu and Miss Kou, it was difficult to calm down.

Finding that He Qingxiao stopped, King Xiu politely bowed his hand: "Xiao Wang didn't greet him well today, and he will invite Hou Ye to drink another day."

Because he was not treated by Emperor Xingyuan, King Xiu has always been humble in front of hundreds of officials.

"His Royal Highness King Xiu is too polite, it is the ministers who invite His Highness." After saying the scene, He Qingxiao said goodbye and left.

The carriages and sedan chairs left the lotus garden one after another, from lively to deserted in just a moment.

"Lin Hu."

"The little ones are."

King Xiu glanced back at the Lotus Garden and asked softly, "Is my father very special to Miss Kou?"

He said this unheardly, as if he were speaking to himself.

Emperor Xingyuan returned to the palace, changed his clothes, and also mentioned Miss Kou: "Sun Yan, what do you think when you see Miss Kou?"

The great eunuch Sun Yan looked up blankly.

What could he think when he saw Miss Kou?

Seeing that the emperor was very serious, Sun Yan couldn't understand the holy intention for a while, and said tentatively: "Miss Kou has a noble appearance and a noble character, which makes people feel happy——"

Emperor Xingyuan frowned and interrupted Gonggong Sun's nonsense: "Don't you think that Miss Kou and I look very similar?"
