Chapter 17: She Is She
The three of them talked for a long time, and there was a palace maid in the front hall to say that the envoy of the great cause had arrived, and His Majesty sent someone to invite.
The three of them didn't dare to slack off, Song Xing took Ruan Mingjiao to say goodbye first, Xiao Ruohan was the protagonist of tonight, and he couldn't be with them.
Under the guidance of the palace maid, the two sang in the palace road of Yongchang, and after turning two corners, they saw that the lights were bright in front of them, and the Chaoqing Hall under the moonlight became more and more magnificent, with an unsympathetic coldness and chill.
Ruan Mingjiao and Song Xing's positions were next to each other, and the two of them sat down before they had time to see the situation in front of them, and the hall was already full of people.
On the side closest to the emperor were the princes and ministers of Beilili, and they were opposite the people of the Great Cause, all of them were majestic and mighty dressed in foreign costumes, and the men led by them were tall, dressed in dark clothes, and had a long animal hair tied on their shoulders, and the women around him were also extremely gorgeous.
"Emperor Beili said, the queen mother said, Princess Anle said."
Ruan Mingjiao peeked, a very sharp and thin voice sounded in the hall, everyone ordered to get up, Ruan Mingjiao bowed with everyone and saluted: I have seen Your Majesty. ”
Xiao Yi's crowned yellow robe today is extremely majestic, the smile on his face is very high, and next to him is a queen in a phoenix robe, with a beautiful appearance, there is no trace of time on her face, and her grace and luxury are very compatible with Your Majesty.
"Zhongqing is flat."
Everyone thanked and sat down again, Xiao Ruohan returned to the nearest low table and sat down, Ruan Mingjiao just saluted and took the opportunity to look at her, her expression was indifferent, but she was not happy, the cold and helpless at the end of her eyes, but this was a fate that she could not escape.
After Ruan Mingjiao sat down, her thoughts were even worse, and she raised her hand to pour herself a glass of wine, the liquor was a little choking in her throat, so spicy that her throat hurt, penetrating to the point of shock, tears swirling in her eyes, but she couldn't bear to let it fall.
Seeing this, Song Xing hurriedly poured her a cup of tea, and asked in a suppressed voice, "Why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Ruan Mingjiao took the tea and took a few sips, although the discomfort in her throat did not completely dissipate, but it was better than just now, she shook her head and did not make a sound.
Why, she doesn't know, Xu respects Xiao Ruohan and respects her for the calmness of sacrificing herself for righteousness, but why does she want to maintain peace but let women take advantage of their own happiness, even if she is a princess who is extremely respected.
She didn't know why she was so emotional, Xu was Fan Qingqing who originally took away the original owner's lover, but the next moment on top of the conflict of interest, the woman always had to sacrifice, and the man could turn around and meet Huanyan again, but the woman has been trapped here, which is really embarrassing.
"Emperor Beili, I am Achatu, the general of the left division of the Great Cause, and I have asked His Majesty Beili Li on behalf of the Emperor of the Great Cause."
Yan Zheng's gaze fell on her from time to time when Ruan Mingjiao entered the hall, seeing that her face was pale, and then he drank a cup of strong tea and looked bad, and the man on the other side who was hesitating suddenly got up and bowed to Emperor Xiao Yi, and then he hid the confusion in his heart and looked at the opposite side.
Achatu was half-shirted, unusually tall with tendons and flesh, and a very thick whip on top of his head.
"General Achatu is polite, and I also say hello on behalf of your majesty." The Emperor said and leveled Achatu's salute.
Achatu thanked him, and then invited the man and woman who Ruan Mingjiao was looking at just now, and introduced them to His Majesty in turn, "This is His Royal Highness Chail, the second prince of my great cause, and His Royal Highness Chali, Princess Xiaofeng. ”
The figure of one blue and one red bowed down, and the figure of the handsome man and beautiful woman made Ruan Mingjiao can't help but look at it twice, especially Caire, whose posture is not as rough as Achatu, and has a little more literati clarity.
Chali next to him has a graceful waist, very beautiful, extremely tall, with black hair tied into small braids tied up at will, just looking at the figure knows that it is a beauty, just a glance at his beautiful appearance, it is really the demeanor of a princess of a country.
After paying a respect, Chail raised his glass to pay tribute to Xiao Yi, "Your Majesty Beili is full of spirit and will be of great help to our country, and Chail wishes your country prosperity and eternal reconciliation between the two countries." ”
He spoke like a clear spring in the mountains, and he spoke very gently, Xiao Yi nodded, raised his glass and drank it with the prince and princess of the great cause, and the others also got up one after another, "May the two countries be reconciled forever!" ”
"Play music, dance!" The atmosphere was just right, and Gonggong Cao, who was beside Xiao Yi, called out with a sharp voice.
After a while, the sound of playing the sheng and playing the piano sounded in the hall, the music was clear and melodious, and a group of dancers wearing gorgeous and refreshing dance clothes came to the sound of the sound, dancing gracefully, and the figure was beautiful.
The atmosphere in the hall is very good, and everyone raises their glasses and pushes the lamp, and they appreciate this rare leisure and elegance. Princess Charlie got up and looked at His Majesty Xiao Yi, then turned around and joined in, a blue-clothed figure was extremely dazzling in the hall, a group of dancing girls surrounded her, but she was not affected, tactful and soft, and swept through the air as clear as the evening breeze.
Daye's unique dance posture is indeed more charming than Beili, Cha Li turned around, raised his legs a tall, lower waist, extremely soft, and then turned around to Yan Zheng's side, stretching out his slender hand to Yan Zheng.
Ruan Mingjiao was originally not in high spirits, but when Cha Li walked in front of Yan Zheng, her eyes suddenly lit up when she boldly invited, the great cause and the people's customs were open, and the girl was bold, it was really not a lie.
She stared at Yan Zheng with bated breath like everyone else, and for some reason she was inexplicably looking forward to how Yan Zheng's temperament would react, and would she bend her waist for the beauty?
Song Xing on the side was also very excited, took Ruan Mingjiao's hand, and said with a little excitement: "I am like this for the opening of this great cause and people's customs, and I really admire it in front of everyone, but ......" she said for a moment, pursed her lips and shook her head, "She has found the wrong person, the high-ranking immortals of Lord Yan are not at the same level as those of us, and they don't eat the fireworks of the world." ”
Ruan Mingjiao raised her eyebrows, and was about to ask her why she was so determined, when there was a murky sound around her, she raised her eyes and looked at Yan Zheng half-up, her long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, as if she was a little drunk, and she smiled on her lips but never ignored Charley's invitation.
Cha Li was stunned for a while, but turned around and went to Pei Jing's side on the side, he had already rejected the princess once, if he refused again, it would be too faceless, Pei Jing froze in place for a while, and didn't know how to react.
After a long while, he poured a glass of wine and handed it to Charley, who took it and bent down to drink it, and returned the glass.
Pei Jingfa should be fast, he didn't save people's face, Xiao Yi originally saw Cha Li walking towards Yan Zheng, so he was a little uneasy, but he didn't expect this guy to really give no face, but when Pei Jing finally didn't have any accidents, his brows finally stretched.
After the dance, everyone retreated, Song Xing was very proud, and raised his eyebrows at Ruan Mingjiao, as if to say, look, what I said is good, right?
Ruan Mingjiao sneered lightly, shook her head helplessly, and in a blink of an eye, she met the eyes of a person, Yan Zheng's eyes went straight to and fro, and she was slightly aggressive, so shocked that her body was stunned, did Yan Zheng know that she was watching his joke?
Her heart was empty, and Chali bowed down in front of the palace, "Your Majesty Beili, Chali is ugly!" ”
"Princess Charlie is generous and decent, reward!" Xiao Yi smiled unabatedly and said loudly.
Cha Li looked proud, and bowed again, "Your Majesty, but Cha Li heard that Princess Anle of your country has a good hand on the piano, I don't know if I have the honor to hear good news today." ”
This is to try Xiao Ruohan, everyone's hearts are like mirrors, Xiao Ruohan got up calmly, walked to the front of the hall and bowed to Xiao Yifu, "Father, the son is willing to play a song on the piano for all distinguished guests." ”
She is decent and generous, quite the demeanor of a princess of a country, Xiao Yi's years of careful maintenance have not been in vain, he is happy in his heart, but his face is not showing, and he waved his big hand, "Lift the piano!" ”
Under the collar, someone has moved the table and stool and the Yueqin, the relics of the previous dynasty, the sound is pleasant, and it can be called the best.
Chail was deeply attracted at the first sight of Xiao Ruohan, she is extremely beautiful, can be described as a national posture, calm and calm every step is elegant, the face is delicate and beautiful, he is very happy, his heart is horizontal and he got up and bowed: "Your Majesty, the princess has excellent piano sound, Chail has been yearning for the great cause, I don't know if Your Majesty can allow Chail to dance the sword to match." ”
Originally, it was the marriage of Chail and Xiao Ruohan, and Chail took the initiative to dance the sword to promote the relationship between the two, Xiao Yi naturally had no reason to refuse, and immediately asked people to come to the long sword.
Xiao Ruohan sat down and looked at Chail, but he didn't expect him to look at him, his eyes were light blue, quite bewitching, his face was evil with a bit of juvenile spirit, and the long feather earrings in his left ear were a little more free, her face was red, and she gestured to Chail.
Xiao Ruohan's piano sound was tactful, sometimes the subordinates had a solemn atmosphere, and the sword blade of Chail suddenly flashed in the main hall, and the sound of the piano suddenly turned sharply, sad and gloomy.
At the sound of the piano, Cha Li suddenly got up and walked to Yan Zheng with a wine glass, "Are you Yan Zheng Yan Yushi?" ”
Yan Zheng raised his glass to his lips, but Cha Li walked over, sat down beside him unceremoniously, stretched out his hand to raise the glass, and said, "My name is Cha Li." ”
Yan Zheng didn't hear it, but his eyes were staring at somewhere, his eyes were deep and a little confused, and he raised his head and drank the wine in his hand.
was rejected when dancing, Cha Li only thought that he was anxious, and the men in Beili liked gentle girls, so she came with the appearance of a small jasper, in order to make Yan Zheng change his opinion of himself, but he didn't expect that he still didn't give himself face.
Cha Li looked at him, and the woman diagonally opposite him looked elegant, combed her hair in a clean bun, and wore a floor-length skirt that was even more clean, and her words and smiles were bright, and the candle flame flashed on her face with a fluctuating light.
Cha Li's breathing stagnated, and after a while, the corners of her mouth turned around and a subtle arc appeared, she knew who it was, Ruan Mingjiao, the most ridiculous county lord in Beili, she heard a lot about her, and when she entered the city, she also learned that she and Yan Zheng were in the same room, saying that the two of them were already dark Chen Cang, and originally didn't believe that seeing Yan Zheng at this moment was a rumor.
"It is rumored that Lord Yan is cold and glamorous, and he has never been bent by the love of his children, but now it seems that what he said is not true. When I entered Beijing, I heard a lot of strange things, and I wonder if Lord Yan is interested in hearing about them. ”
"The strange things in Beili, will the princess laugh with me again? What kind of anecdote I don't know, but the princess knows. Yan Zheng snorted lightly and said impatiently.
"Naturally, it's Lord Yan's affair, how dare others say it into your ears." Cha Li was not affected by him, she said that she moved her gaze to Ruan Mingjiao in the distance, and sneered: "They said that Lord Yan and Lord Pingyang were happy to see each other, and they had secretly promised it for life. I don't believe it, Lord Yan's pride in the sky, a county lord with bad conduct, how did a woman who almost became your sister-in-law get into the eyes of Lord Yan, I heard that she used to feel a lot of sorry for Lord Yan, Lord Yan would not like a ...... who humiliated herself"
She paused, moved her gaze to Yan Zheng, and looked at him meaningfully.
Yan Zheng poured himself a glass of wine again, his eyes regained a little clarity, and he looked up at Ruan Mingjiao, his beautiful figure seemed to be in his eyes, "When did Princess Chari care about the affairs of others." ”
"Because I'm interested in Lord Yan." Charlie is not shy about what she thinks of him.
Yan Zheng snorted lightly, drank another glass, his voice was hoarse, and he said slowly: "But I'm not interested in the princess, you want to know?" ”
"Nature." Charlie replied.
Yan Zheng smiled on his lips, his eyes were confused as if he was drunk, but the words he said didn't bend a little, "Then listen well, in my eyes, she is not the county lord, nor my sister-in-law, she is her!" As long as she stands, there are thousands of beauties in the world, and none of them can compare to her! ”
