Outside the palace gate, a sharp summons came from the palace: The foreign envoy is here.

Everyone looked out of the door, the emperor's increasingly thin face showed a bit of joy, under his leadership, the Daji Dynasty grew stronger, prosperous, stable, thriving, even the foreign invasion that had plagued several generations of the emperor, now bowed down at his feet.

The envoy at the head was tall and mighty, with a dark face and deep facial features, which was probably caused by the living environment outside the Guan, which was in sharp contrast to the officials who were prosperous and honorable in the court.

The envoy made a big salute to the emperor, and the eunuch read the items of this tribute on the side, a long page, representing the sincerity of the foreign car.

Even His Majesty who was sitting on the high seat nodded frequently, and the people followed the spirit a little bit and waved their seats.

The envoy arched his hand and bowed, and said: "This time I entered Beijing to pay tribute to the holy daughter of my clan for my emperor, so that the Daji Dynasty will be prosperous for thousands of generations, and my emperor will be safe and healthy." ”

That's it.

Two bright red cuffs outside the door flew in, full of strange fragrance, in the sound of the silk piano, the cuffs fell on the jade arm that was as white as jade, the saint was boldly dressed, revealing a slender waist, soft as a willow, and her posture was graceful as a swimming dragon, light as a wing.

After the sound of silk and bamboo, the eyes of the saint in front of her were black and bright, her eyes were like autumn water, she was looking forward to shining, her charm was rippling, her small and erect nose bridge, and her delicate lips were glowing with a layer of seductive light.

The hall was silent, immersed in the dance just now, with His Majesty's voice: "There are beautiful women in the north, but they are driving Cailuan, and they have a few times in the world." Reward! ”

The holy maiden Ying Ying bowed: "Ah Wu thank you, Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty." ”

Only then did everyone come back to their senses, and bursts of cheers came.

"Ah Wu to my emperor to offer our people's medicinal incense, burning it to sleep can calm the mind, nourish the dragon body, this medicinal fragrance is unique to our clan, and this thin gift is offered."

The big eunuch beside the emperor took the incense box in the hand of the saint and passed it to the imperial doctor on the side for identification.

His Majesty held the open incense box, and a faint fragrance hit him, slowly spreading to the entire palace, as if even the smell of medicine on his body had been diluted a little.

His Majesty gave a few words of simple reward, led the hundred officials to drink a cup of elixir, and got up and left.

The banquet began to be lively again, staggered with staggered and singing and dancing.

It wasn't until the second half of the night that the palace feast dispersed.

Inside the palace of the second prince.

After the eldest prince injured his leg, he was depressed, and he did not appear in front of people much after that.

Now the first emperor is the second prince Li Min, who dominates the lead, and the third prince is under him, but the third prince is not visible in front of people, he is from a humble background, and he can't set off the wind and waves, and then there are a few young princes.

Originally, Li Min felt that the situation in front of him was very good, the emperor was about to fall, and that seat was simply close at hand.

At this time, the emperor added the Marquis of Zhenbei, wanting the two of them to contain each other and achieve balance.

Old and immortal, at this time, he still holds on to his rights.

Li Min's eyes were gloomy.

……

In the blink of an eye, the spring banquet has passed for more than three months.

The emperor's illness is getting worse and worse, and the various factions in the court are in full swing.

Although Qi Zheng behaved as usual in front of Qiao Yuan, Qiao Yuan still vaguely felt a bit of gunsmoke.

The time spent in the study is getting longer and longer, and there are constant visitors to the house every day.

It was dinner time, but Qi Cun still didn't come back.

The little beauty became interested, and asked the maid to pack the meal, and she sent it to the study.

There was a candle burning in the study, and the little maid saw the lady coming with a lantern from a distance, and hurried to meet it.

"Master Hou and a few adults have been in the study for a day, and the food sent in at noon has not been touched much, and those adults have just left."

He was not taboo at all, and he thoroughly understood the whereabouts of the Hou Ye.

Who in the house doesn't know that Mrs. is the tip of the Hou Ye's heart, and it is better to please anyone than to please Mrs. has a future.

Qiao Yuan frowned, took the food box from the maid's hand, and gently pushed the door in.

Qi Cun lowered his head to deal with the folds, and looked up at it as if he had a heart in his heart.

It's like slow play.

Qiao Yuan watched as the expression on Qi Cun's face changed from impatience to surprise, and there were stars in his dark eyes.

She thought that Qi Cun always praised her for her good eyes, and his own eyes were also good. Like obsidian, it seems to have a streamer.

Qi Cun curled the corners of his lips and watched her walk in a little bit.

Beauty is like a flower across the clouds.

She seemed to come from the moonlight, wearing a cloak of hibiscus and golden branches, and her snowy skin was like a fragrant freesia.

Qiao Yuan put the food box on the desk, and saw a folded book spread out, with ink characters written on it.

She picked it up and looked at it for a moment, it seemed to be an official appointment.

Qi Cun didn't stop her, and held his head lazily: "It's a little troublesome." “

The personnel transfer of core officials will affect the whole body, and there are so many seats in total, either yours or his, especially at this juncture, you must be more cautious.

Qiao Yuan didn't understand it, so he hesitated and said, "What is the relationship between Lord Gong and Lord Zhu between the DPRK and China?" “

Her watery eyes were more moving than the moonlight outside the window.

Qi Cun sneered: "Why did you suddenly ask about this, you still don't know Xianggong's ability?" “

This man will not be able to stand for a quarter of an hour before his true form will be revealed.

Qiao Yuan threw the fold into his arms, his slender white fingers touched the food box, and he was about to open it, but he sat on his lap with his arms.

"Not really, it's just that when I went to listen to the play some time ago, these two ladies were in the same room, but at banquets on weekdays, the two don't look like they are friends, which is very strange." Qiao Yuan wanted to break Qi Cun's arm, but in exchange for a deeper restraint.

The furnishings in the study are cold and simple, the faint fragrance of paper and ink fills the tip of the nose, and there is a large character on the wall that reads "Righteous and Strict".

But Qi Cun's behavior is not dignified at all.

In the past few days, there are often officials here to discuss matters, and Qiao Yuan always feels a kind of intimate uneasiness under the noses of others.

She hurriedly pressed Qi Cun's hand, her face flushed, "Eat quickly, if you don't eat again, it will be cold." “

Qi Cun buried in her neck socket, and her voice was hoarse: "We haven't tried to be in the study yet." “

The little beauty looked at him with wide eyes and disbelief.

Qi Cun looked back calmly, without a trace of shame.

Qiao Yuan's fingers curled up for a long time, and he said embarrassedly: "Is it okay to go to the living room in the back?" “

Her voice was barely audible.

There was a small living room at the back of the study, where Qi had slept before he was allowed to enter the bedroom.

The answer, of course, is no.

The study is a place to deal with official business, not to enjoy, so the tables and chairs are cold and hard.

Even if the clothes are padded, red plums are still knocked out of the snow skin.

Through the misty mist, the "upright and strict" above looms.

Qiao Yuan couldn't help it, his eyelashes were moist, and his lips were about to bite and bleed.

Qi Cun made a move.

The little beauty breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that his conscience had finally found out, but the next moment he felt that his eyes were dark.

The man tied her with a cloth strap to cover her eyes.

The cloth band is black, and the skin is as white as snow.

The overly long fabric hangs down at the back of the head, mingling in the waterfall-like hair, swaying.

"It's all going to work now."

Qi Cun said a little proudly.

What answered him was the hot pain coming from behind.
