Chapter 77: It's not like this to add fuel to the fire
The people who should have arrived, almost all of them.
The banquet is about to begin.
"Is there anyone here?"
Yun Wanyao was chatting with Mo Zhaozhao when a low voice suddenly sounded in her ears, and her heartbeat instantly lost its frequency.
Turning her head, she saw Mo Yuanlin appear beside her at some point, looking at her with a pair of ancient eyes looking at her in deep darkness.
The fists in her sleeves tightened, Yun Wanyao's whole body tightened, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she kept cheering herself up in her heart, but when she opened her mouth to speak, she couldn't help but stutter.
"Go back, go back to the emperor, no, no one ......"
"Oh."
The young and handsome emperor raised his eyebrows in response, walked to the seat beside her and sat down.
"Brother Huang, why are you here here?"
Mo Zhaozhao poked his head out and looked at Mo Yuanlin with curiosity on his face.
She, Yun Wanyao, and Jiang Zitang sat side by side, Yun Wanyao was on the far left, she was in the center, and then Jiang Zitang and Xie Xuanyong.
There was no vacancy between the four of them, so Mo Yuanlin sat on Yun Wanyao's left side.
"Well, I think you're in a good position here."
Mo Yuanlin lowered his eyelids and responded lightly, and Mo Zhaozhao suddenly became arrogant.
"Of course, this position is the first place I chose, can it be good?"
When the words fell, she suddenly thought of something, and said, "But Brother Huang, that position is reserved for Brother Wang, where do you sit, let Brother Wang sit?" Didn't you separate Brother Wang and A-Yao? β
"Really?"
Mo Yuanlin turned his head to look at Yun Wanyao and said, "Fang Cai, you clearly told me that there is no one here, now, do you need me to give way to Yuan Hao?" β
Hearing this, Yun Wanyao's scalp tingled for a while, and she subconsciously shook her head.
"No, no, the emperor just sits here."
He suddenly came over and asked her if there was anyone next to her, she was nervous for a while, her brain was blank, where could she still think of Mo Yuanhao?
Besides, Mo Yuanhao didn't say that he wanted to sit here with her, he has been here for so long, and the emperor has come over for a long time, but he has not seen anyone for a long time, does she still have to occupy a seat for him?
Now, the emperor is sitting here, and she doesn't have the courage to let him give way.
Even if Mo Yuanhao is a prince, he is not qualified to let the king of a country give way for him.
However, what about Mo Yuanhao?
Yun Wanyao turned her head to look around for him, but saw him standing next to the main platform, looking in one direction with an uncertain expression, and following his line of sight, Yun Wanyao's pupils constricted.
In that direction...... It's the heroine!
How could he look at the heroine so intently?
Could it be that you really can't escape that fate?
"In that case, then I'm welcome."
Mo Yuanlin's eyes moved, and a smile crossed the corner of his lips without a trace, causing Mo Zhaozhao to roll his eyes constantly.
The royal brother is really, knowing that Ah Yao is afraid of him, he deliberately asked Ah Yao like that.
When he sat there, didn't he know the relationship between Brother Wang and Ah Yao?
"Your Majesty."
Jiang Zitang and Xie Xuanyong finally had a chance to greet Mo Yuanlin, and Mo Yuanlin answered, turned his head and chatted with Xie Xuanyong.
"What is Yao looking at?"
Sandwiched in the middle, Mo Zhaozhao didn't have the slightest interest in the content of their chat, turned his head to look at Yun Wanyao, and saw her biting her lip and looking in one direction, her expression was a little indescribably complicated.
After following her line of sight, she saw Mo Yuanhao.
Mo Zhaozhao didn't think much about it, hooked his lips and quipped, "Oh, it turned out that he was looking at Brother Wang, in other words, the winter banquet doesn't need Brother Wang to preside, why is he standing there?" β
Hearing her words, everyone looked in the direction of Mo Yuanhao, but Mo Yuanhao didn't realize it.
He squinted his eyes and looked inquiringly at the woman in white with delicate eyebrows and a lazy expression not far away, and the whole person was surrounded by an indescribable sense of weirdness.
That is, Su Qianxue?
How can it be as if it is a different person?
In the past, Su Qianxue had a stupid face, why hadn't she seen her these days, she seemed to be reborn, and she couldn't find the feeling she had in her body anymore?
I suddenly remembered that the straw bale fool who had stalked him, done all the stupid things, and lost face had not appeared in front of him for a long time.
During this time, she never came to pester him again.
This is obviously a good thing, but Mo Yuanhao now feels that things are very wrong.
The woman who loves him to death or live, for him, does not hesitate to break off the marriage contract with Yun Wanchen again and again, how could she suddenly give up on him?
The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change.
She will definitely not give up easily, so there must be something hidden in this.
Sensing his inquiring gaze, Su Qianxue looked over, and after seeing that he didn't avoid it at all, she rolled her eyes at him with disdain.
This male protagonist, although he has a handsome and good appearance, is really not a good thing.
The original owner didn't care about his face and identity, he loved him to death or live, humbled to the dust, and did all kinds of good things, but he never looked at the original owner squarely.
Every time, the original owner is treated as bed bug garbage.,Disgusted to the extreme.,In the end, it's for the heroine.,The original owner was brutally killed.γ
She will cross over, also because he taught the original owner a lesson, and scared the original owner into a serious illness.
Falling in love with such a ruthless and hateful guy, the original owner really fell for eight lifetimes of blood mold.
Taking in her disgusted and disdainful expression, Mo Yuanhao's eyes sank slightly, it really changed, how could Su Qianxue, who was in the past, look at him like this?
But how can a good person say that he will change?
"Brother Wang, he ......"
Mo Zhaozhao licked his lips and wanted to say something to excuse Mo Yuanhao, or to comfort Yun Wanyao, but after only saying three words, he couldn't go on.
Even she felt that Brother Wang was looking at Su Qianxue's hateful woman, and after watching it for a long time, how could Ah Yao not think that?
Brother Wang, is he full of food and has nothing to do?
What are you doing with that Su Qianxue?
What's there to see?
Thinking of the expression of the noble prince in the audience when he saw Su Qianxue today, Mo Zhaozhao suddenly chuckled fiercely in his heart, no, no, Brother Wang won't be so superficial, right?
"Miss Su is very beautiful today, my fair lady and gentleman are good, no wonder Yuan Hao will be fascinated by it."
Mo Yuanlin smiled slightly and said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Yun Wanyao's fists couldn't help but tighten a little, and her eyes darkened.
Glancing at Yun Wanyao with worry, Mo Zhaozhao gritted his teeth, eager to rush over and sew up Mo Yuanlin's big mouth.
My Fair Lady and Gentleman, Brother Wang, he asks for a yarn, he already has a fiancΓ©e, okay?
Don't you know that his fiancΓ©e is sitting among us?
It's really a pot that doesn't open and which pot to mention, and it's not like this to pour oil on the fire, don't you see that Ah Yao's mood is wrong?
If you want to dismantle A-Yao and Brother Wang, you will make it clear that there is no need to fan the flames like this.
"Heh, my fair lady and gentleman, why does the imperial brother also take a fancy to Su Qianxue? I can leave the words here, I don't share the sky with Su Qianxue, and I don't agree with the fact that the imperial brother wants to welcome Su Qianxue into the palace. β
Mo Yuanlin: "......"
"I'm just expressing my opinion objectively, when did I say that I was going to welcome her into the palace? Zhao Zhao is not allowed to talk nonsense, lest gossip end badly. β
"Hmph, who let the royal brother praise her for being beautiful, the imperial brother has never praised a woman like this, I always thought that in the eyes of the imperial brother, women are all the same, and there is no difference between beauty and ugliness."
Mo Zhaozhao was unconvinced.
Mo Yuanlin sighed helplessly, "I have long eyes, how can I not tell the difference between beauty and ugliness?" β
After a while, he looked at Yun Wanyao with bright eyes and continued, "Miss Yun, Cousin Jiang, and Zhao Zhao are all beautiful today. β
"Thank you for the compliment."
Jiang Zitang smiled slightly and hurriedly thanked him.
Yun Wanyao was stunned, and after hearing Jiang Zitang's words, she quickly came back to her senses and stumbled, "Much, thank you for the emperor's compliment." β
"Heh~"
Mo Yuanlin looked away and laughed softly, although he didn't know what he was laughing at, he could see that he was in a good mood.
"That's pretty much it."
The three of them were all praised, Mo Zhaozhao became happy, snorted arrogantly, and then heard the priest calling Jiang Zitang.
She stretched out her hand and patted Jiang Zitang gently, and said, "Cousin, the banquet is about to start, the sacrificial wine lord called you, go quickly, talented girl." β
As the first talented woman appointed by the first emperor, every winter banquet in the future, unless there is something important that cannot be escaped, Jiang Zitang must attend and present the new work handwritten at the beginning to start for everyone.
"Hmm."
Jiang Zitang replied with a red face, turned his head to look at Xie Xuanyong, and said, "Ayong, then I'll go." β
"Well, go ahead."
Xie Xuanyong replied softly, and watched her walk towards the middle.
"Brother Huang, why are you sitting here?"
Mo Yuanhao walked over and stood in front of Mo Yuanlin, frowning at him.
Mo Yuanlin raised his head and said indifferently, "I saw that there was no one here, so I sat here, why did the second brother come here now?" β
Mo Yuanhao: "......"
How could there be no one?
Isn't he human?
"Yes, Brother Wang, why did you come here now? Are you dazzled by something? β
Mo Zhaozhao put his hands around his chest, and made a strange voice, hearing her words, Mo Yuanhao was slightly stunned, and immediately realized that when he looked at Su Qianxue, he was probably seen by them.
Something suddenly crossed his mind, and he subconsciously looked at Yun Wanyao in the middle of the two brothers and sisters, and saw that the beautiful and delicate girl also looked up at him.
Mo Yuanhao's throat suddenly became a little dry, and a rare trace of nervousness crossed his heart.
"Yao'er, things are not what you think, this king just thinks that Su Qianxue is a little weird, so he will be distracted for a while."
"Oh," Yun Wanyao replied lightly, and then said with a smile, "What does the prince think I think?" β
Mo Yuanhao: "......"
Does his words count as a self-confession?
She obviously didn't say anything, and he was so eager to start proving his innocence, I'm afraid, it will only get darker and darker.
"Heh, this king thinks that Yao'er has always been sensible and will definitely understand this king, and will not speculate and misunderstand this king at will."
Yun Wanyao: "??? β
So, if she continues to ask, is she unreasonable and messing around?
All right.
"Zhaozhao, you go over and sit down."
Mo Yuanhao lowered his head and looked at Mo Zhaozhao, trying to get her to give way, and then, he would be next to Yun Wanyao.
Compared with Mo Yuanlin, it is obvious that Mo Zhaozhao is the soft persimmon.
But now, even if Mo Zhaozhao is a soft persimmon, he won't pinch him.
"This is my cousin's seat, I'll sit down, where will my cousin sit when she comes back in a while? Since Brother Wang is late, let's find a new position. β
"Zhaozhao, obedient."
Mo Yuanhao's voice sank for a minute, Mo Zhaozhao snorted coldly, and then turned his head to look at Mo Yuanlin, blatantly complaining.
"Brother Huang, look at it, Brother Wang threatens me."
Hmph, Brother Wang, a big bastard, dared to look at the woman she hated the most in front of everyone for so long, which made her very angry, so she didn't listen to him.
Since you love that woman so much, just sit next to that woman and take a good look, why are you still here?
"There are so many seats, the second brother should go and find another one."
Mo Yuanlin said lightly, as soon as these words came out, it was clear that he would not give way to him, Mo Yuanhao sighed, and had to sit on Mo Yuanlin's left side.
A good pair of little lovers, just like that, separated by the man in the middle.
"Brother Huang, Zhao Zhao is naΓ―ve and willful, and unreasonable, why do you deliberately embarrass your brother?"
The royal brother could obviously give up a position, but he sat motionless and made up his mind not to give up his position.
Although there has never been a reason for the emperor to give up his seat to his courtiers, they are brothers of the same mother, and today is not a formal occasion, so what if the imperial brother gives up?
In this regard, Mo Yuanhao was very dissatisfied in his heart.
Mo Yuanlin's expression did not change, and he said lightly, "I didn't embarrass you, come first and come later, you came late by yourself, it's good to have a position, why do you still want to let others give you a seat?" β
"Although this winter banquet is not an important occasion, but so many sons and nobles are watching, how can I give you a place?"
"If I let it, what do you think they will say in private?"
"Although you and I are brothers, the king is the king, and the minister is the minister, and we can't mess with the outline of the monarch and the minister."
Mo Yuanhao: "......"
Such a big thing, you have to say it so seriously, right?
What can these sons and daughters say in private? At most, it means that their brothers have a good relationship.
But the words have already come to this, and Mo Yuanhao can't continue to hold on to this matter, so he has to rest and coax Yun Wanyao's thoughts.
Originally, he still thought that after sitting with her, he would coax her well, but now it seems that he can only wait until the banquet is over, or when she leaves the venue halfway.
On the stage, the priest stroked his beard and spoke impassionedly, Jiang Zitang wrote in the middle, and beside her were four university scholars full of wealth.
The scholars looked at the gradually enthusiastic words on the rice paper in front of her, and kept nodding in satisfaction.
It can be seen from the expressions of several people that Jiang Zitang's poems today are probably quite level.
Offstage, Su Qianxue hooked her lips and looked at the girl who was seriously waving her pen casually, with a faint disdain in her eyes.
She wanted to see what peerless masterpieces this talented woman in the Great Martial Kingdom could write.
However, what is certain is that no matter what kind of masterpiece this first talented woman writes today, there is only one result, that is, she stepped on the soles of her feet and became a stepping stone for her to turn over.
She asked for the title of the first talented woman!!
