Chapter 7: Toast at the Birthday Banquet
The 60th birthday of the queen mother, the scene of the birthday celebration of Cishou Palace is quite grand, the emperor, the prince, and the emperor's grandsons all kneel down in turn to salute the birthday toast, and the concubines in the palace are also scrambling to toast the birthday.
The queen mother celebrated her birthday, and the ministers of the court and the central government could bring their families to the palace to congratulate her birthday, and Xiao Yurou also dressed up with her parents to attend, and danced a solo dance during the banquet, which attracted great attention from someone.
King Xuan hurriedly walked into the imperial garden, and the pretty figure among the flowers, the pink clothes were better than plums, and the delicate face was shy. A ripple rippled in his heart, and blood was surging all over his body.
"Yurou, your dancing is beautiful. He leaned over slowly, praising her affectionately,
"Lord Wang, is it true that Yu Rouguang is beautiful in dancing and not beautiful in people?" Yu Rou flashed her bright eyes and smiled, and the beautiful closed moon shy flowers made King Xuan's pulse stop for half a beat.
"It's beautiful, you are the most beautiful woman in the Han Dynasty, Yurou, are you willing to marry this king?"
"Lord Wang, Yu Rou's heart has long belonged to the prince, if you don't marry the prince, who else can the slave family marry?" Yu Rou lowered her head in disgust and blushed with shame.
"You agreed, you promised to marry this king!" King Xuan grabbed Yurou's jade hands, his handsome face was full of spring, his smile bloomed, and his beautiful phoenix eyes were shining.
"Lord Wang, Yurou will be by your side for the rest of your life. "The rain is as delicate as water, and she speaks softly.
"Yurou, only you can make this king lose his soul, and after the banquet is over, this king will immediately ask his father to marry us. Marry this king, you will be happy!" King Xuan opened his arms and gently hugged her in his arms.
In the Cishou Palace, the beautiful women who came to celebrate their birthday still sang and danced, showed their skills, and made themselves dazzling, hoping to attract the favor of the young and handsome princes on the seats.
The queen sat beside the queen mother, graceful and noble, smiling softly, and her beautiful eyes glanced at King Xuan and King Hao from time to time, as if she was expecting something.
Is the drug ineffective?
No way!
The queen thought to herself, if she really drank the Yin family's private poison, she wouldn't be so relaxed, didn't he drink the birthday wine? Seeing that King Xuan was light and talking and laughing, she had to believe that King Xuan didn't even drink the birthday wine for the Queen Mother.
This little fox is so cunning and protects himself seamlessly, and Bengong really underestimates him.
Hmph! In the palace, as long as the palace makes a move, no one can escape from the palm of the palace!
This King Xuan, blame him for being too good, he has only been back to the dynasty for more than two years, and his light has already covered Hao'er's brilliance, in this case, this palace will make you disappear, like his mother, disappear forever in front of the emperor.
King Xuan's face was unwavering, smiling and smiling freely with the few brothers sitting beside him, as if he was not alert to the queen's sinister attention.
A few dressed beauties came to toast to their favorite princes, and King Xuan was displeased to sink down and a few princes, entertaining the beautiful wines that the beauties came over.
Xiao Yurou stood behind her father's seat, looking at King Xuan from afar, her sight was almost blocked, she hated that this position was too far away from King Xuan.
Daddy's three-grade official position is too small in the court, at this time is the smallest official rank in this Cishou Palace, his status is very different from those of the emperor's relatives and the young ladies of the first-class ministers, I didn't expect to be favored by the prince, when King Xuan asked her to meet in the imperial garden for the first time, she was ecstatic, she was really lucky, she was actually favored by King Xuan.
Ah, the incomparably handsome Prince Xuan, that is the noble royal prince she could never dream of! She must seize the opportunity......
Xiao Yurou really couldn't hold back her heart, she couldn't care about the jealous eyes that wanted to swallow her, so she walked to the front of the banquet shyly, and toasted King Xuan with a wine glass in her hand.
"Courtesy Xiao Yurou knocks on Prince Xuan!" Yurou fluttered down, King Xuan hurriedly stood up and said in a low voice: "Excuse me, get up quickly!"
"Lord Wang, please make this glass of wine, this glass of wine represents a piece of the courtier's heart, the courtier wishes the prince all the best!" Yu Rou shyly handed over the wine glass.
"Second brother, just take the wine glass! This young lady is sincere, haha!" The Nine Emperor Princes stood behind King Xuan and laughed.
The queen mother was overjoyed, looking at Xuanhuang's grandson's eyes were shining, her face was slightly red, and she was very polite to the toasting lady, it turned out that Xuan'er also had a favorite woman, Xuan'er was almost twenty years old, and it was time to marry a concubine and have children.
"Queen, whose lady is this?"
"The queen mother is Xiao Yurou, the eldest daughter of Lord Xiao. ”
A sly smile flashed in the queen's eyes, because she saw that King Xuan's tenderness had come out of her eyes, he liked Xiao Yurou very much, and Xiao Yurou was his weakness.
The queen is gambling, this cup of wine King Xuan will not be secretly hidden, he will definitely drink it.
Since ancient times, heroes love beauties, and King Xuan is not a god, he is also a mortal.
Oh, what a slender lady and gentleman!
King Xuan smiled, looked at her affectionately with a slightly red handsome face, took the wine glass from Yurou's hand and drank it all. Yurou blushed and bowed her head and retreated. King Xuan looked at her distant figure stupidly, just withdrew his gaze, suddenly there was a cramp in his abdomen, his eyes lit up, and he glanced at the queen with great sharpness, the queen looked at his angry eyes, raised his eyebrows, and sent a smug smile.
Boy, fight with this palace, you are still a little tender!
King Xuan secretly closed several of his big holes, endured strong abdominal pain, and quietly withdrew from the main hall of Cishou Palace without waves, and staggered out of the gate of Cishou Palace.
In order not to disturb this festive birthday banquet, in order to keep his beloved from being suspected, and in order to prevent the murderer from continuing to put him to death near the water, at this time, he must not fall in the palace of the Queen Mother.
"Lord Wang!" Xuan Wangfu and several other personal guards outside the Cishou Palace were shocked when they saw the prince walking out with a pale face. There was a commotion outside Cishou Palace, and many people who were waiting were anxious, for fear that their masters would not be able to escape this fate.
"Come back home!" King Xuan's eyes were dilated, and he leaned weakly on the body of his personal guard, and barely issued a low order.
The guards hurriedly carried King Xuan into the carriage, walked out of the palace gate, and rushed to the palace. As soon as he was helped into the gate of the palace, King Xuan vomited blood from his mouth, and could no longer support it, his eyes were closed, and he fell to the ground, unconscious.
