Chapter 37: The Birthday Banquet

"Nan, Gong, Jue......" Gu Xi gritted his teeth and called Nangong Jue's name.

"Madam, what are your husband's orders here?" Nangong Jue asked facelessly.

"Get the hell out of here. Gu Xi wiped the tea on his face with his sleeve, stood up and pulled Nangong Jue to drag him out of the door, opened the door and pushed him out.

Gu Xi was about to close the door, but was stopped by Nangong Jue: "Madam, what is this doing?"

"Can't you see that?" Gu Xi said and made a gesture to kick Nangong Jue, Nangong Jue flashed, and Gu Xi took the opportunity to close the door.

"This girl. Nangong Jue shook his head with a smile and sat down on the stone bench outside the room.

Then the green kite who came over saw that Nangong Jue was not in the house, and instantly breathed a sigh of relief, walked in front of Nangong Jue, blessed his body and said, "Lord Pavilion Master, how is the owner of my family?"

"She's so good. Nangong Jue looked up at the green kite and said. This girl is much more mature than before, and her output is becoming more and more standard.

"Then I'll go in and have a look. After saying that, the green kite ran into the room.

"What's the matter with this girl, Qing Kite, I look terrible, don't I?" Nangong Jue said to herself.

"Squeak...... The door was opened, and Gu Xi, who was lying on the bed, frowned a little unhappily and said, "Didn't I tell you to get out." ”

"It's me, Sister Xi. The blue kite quickly closed the door and replied.

"Kites. Gu Xi got up from the bed excitedly, walked to the green kite and said, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, what about you?" the green kite grabbed Gu Xi's hand and looked at it.

"It's okay, it's just that this Nangong Jue is not as simple as imagined, this person's martial arts are unfathomable, and what is even more terrifying is that he also has spiritual power. ”

"What?" said the kite, her eyes widened in disbelief.

"Hmm...... Don't worry, let's see what he's going to do. Gu Xi comforted the green kite.

Night

The birthday banquet of the lord of Jinsu was arranged in the imperial garden in the palace, and exquisite palace lamps were placed on both sides of the aisle of the imperial garden, and the candles inside were lit at night.

There was a large area in the middle of the feast, and it seemed that tonight's show would be a pleasant surprise.

Guests entered the Imperial Garden one after another to sit in the banquet, including Nangong Jue and Gu Xi, of course.

"The lord of the country and Concubine Chen have arrived. With the voice of the palace people, everyone's eyes looked towards the entrance of the imperial garden, and saw Mu Shangze wearing a golden robe, and beside him was Shen Yue, the concubine with a beautiful face. Shen Yue wore a light yellow palace dress with a delicate phoenix hairpin on her head, if it weren't for the palace people saying Concubine Chen, it is estimated that everyone here would think that Shen Yue was the queen.

Mu Shangze took Shen Yue to sit down on the main seat under the eyes of everyone, and after Mu Shangze personally helped Shen Yue to take a seat, he sat down.

"This lord of the Jinsu Kingdom loves this Concubine Chen, but it's strange, what about the queen of the Jinsu Kingdom?" Gu Xi muttered in a low voice.

"Maybe it will come out later, it is said that this Mu Shangze does not like this queen very much, this queen has no name, but in fact she is snubbed. Nangong Jue somehow heard Gu Xi's muttering, tilted his head and said close to Gu Xi's ear.

"Then why do you want to be crowned queen?" Gu Xi raised his eyes and glanced at Nangong Jue who came over, pushed his face aside and asked.

"Qin Jinzhi is good, you know. Nangong Jue said with an evil smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Thank you for coming to my birthday banquet, you have come from far and wide for your hard work. Mu Shangze said and raised the wine glass in his hand.

"The lord of the country is gracious. Everyone at the feast also raised their glasses and said.

"You don't lift it?" Gu Xi looked at Nangong Jue, who was indifferent on the side, and asked with some doubts. It would be nice if it was in the back, they were sitting so far in front that everyone was watching.

"I don't lift it, I don't lift it, shouldn't Mrs. know best?" Nangong Jue still sat there and said motionlessly.

"Poof......" Gu Xi almost squirted out the wine in his mouth, rolled his eyes, and thought to himself that this Nangong Jue was really a talent.

"Not necessarily. Nangong Jue continued, "This Jinsu country lord still has a request for me. ”

"I'll just say, it's a bargaining chip. After Gu Xi finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Nangong Jue, drank the wine by himself, and his face began to flush after drinking a few glasses.

"Don't drink too much. Nangong Jue looked at the slightly drunk Gu Xi and reminded, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he didn't want so many people to see Gu Xi so charming.

"You, drinking is also in your way?" Gu Xi put down his wine glass with some displeasure. Strange to say, he has never been greedy for a cup, just because this Jin Suguo's wine is really delicious, he drank a few more glasses.

"I'm afraid you're drunk. Nangong Jue felt Gu Xi's displeasure and explained.

"I'm not that bad at drinking. Gu Xi retorted.

"There's something in this wine. Nangong Jue continued.

Gu Xi's face changed, he turned his head and squinted at Nangong Jue who was wearing a mask, gritting his teeth and saying, "Then you didn't say it earlier?"

After Gu Xi finished speaking, he probed his pulse, Nangong Jue looked at Gu Xi's actions and was a little funny, and pulled Gu Xi's hand to press Gu Xi's pulse.

Gu Xi wanted to break free, but Nangong Jue's voice came again: "I'll take a look." ”

Well, life matters, Gu Xi is no longer struggling, and Nangong Jue is still holding his pulse.

Suddenly, there was a sound of the piano, and the dancers slowly walked towards the center of the feast, and in the middle of them were a woman with a graceful figure, who was none other than Princess Lanxiang.

I saw Princess Lanxiang wearing a red dance dress, dancing in front of everyone, suddenly the water sleeves were about to be thrown away, the sleeves danced, as if there were countless petals fluttering down in the air, swaying, and many people present were stunned.

As the music ended, Princess Lan Xiang took the dance steps and walked to Mu Shangze, knelt down and said, "Lan Xiang wishes the imperial brother a happy birthday and a long blessing." ”

"Okay, okay, Lan Xiang hurry up, hurry up and sit down. Mu Shangze looked at Lan Xiang and said with a smile on his lips, seemingly satisfied with Lan Xiang's performance just now.

"Brother Emperor Xie. Lan Xiang thanked her and returned to her seat.

Lan Xiang's seat was just opposite to Nangong Jue's seat in Guxi, Lan Xiang couldn't help but look at Nangong Jue as soon as she sat down, but found that Nangong Jue was not sitting next to a green kite, Lan Xiang looked at Gu Xi carefully, and couldn't help but tremble in her heart, how could there be such a stunning person in the world, although in the night, Lan Xiang still saw the appearance of Gu Xi clearly.

A resentful gaze appeared in Lan Xiang's eyes, but it happened to meet Nangong Jue's sudden gaze, Nangong Jue squinted at Lan Xiang and nodded, Lan Xiang hurriedly lowered her head, thinking about whether her expression just now was seen by Nangong Jue.

"It's so lively. Suddenly, a black figure appeared at the gate of the imperial garden, Jun Moyan was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe, a golden crown and jade belt, the brocade robe was inlaid with gorgeous gold edges, the needlework was meticulous, and the brocade robe was embroidered with a flying dragon pattern, and the pattern was also extremely careful and lifelike, and the powerful king's breath came to his face.

Jun Moyan, the lord of Si Yin Country, has a strong military force, has the ambition to recover all countries, and has strong strength in all countries, ordinary small countries dare not provoke easily, Jun Moyan is only afraid that it is not as simple as celebrating his birthday this time.

Jun Moyan gradually got closer, and Gu Xi saw his appearance clearly, only to see Jun Moyan's tall nose, thin lips, and sword-like eyebrows flying obliquely into a few strands of black hair under the corner of his sideburns. Handsome side face with impeccable facial contours.

Nangong Jue looked at Gu Xi and looked at Jun Moyan blankly, and his heart was instantly jealous. looked at Jun Moyan, with a hint of indifference in his eyes.

"It turned out that the lord of Si Yinguo arrived, and there was a loss of welcome. Mu Shangze didn't dare to offend Jun Moyan, so he quickly stepped down from his seat, came to Jun Moyan's side and said respectfully.

Jun Moyan sneered and said: "The lord of Jinsu doesn't have to be polite, this monarch came here this time to congratulate his birthday, and the lord of the country doesn't have to be nervous." ”

"Hahaha, it's an honor, it's an honor, please take a seat. Mu Shangze said with a grin.

I have to say that the efficiency of this Jin Suguo is indeed high, and at this time when Mu Shangze was talking to Jun Moyan, the palace people had already added a new table of banquets next to Princess Lanxiang.

"Please. Jun Moyan made a gesture of invitation, motioning for Mu Shangze to return to his seat as well.

From the moment Jun Moyan came in, Lan Xiang's eyes never left Jun Moyan, this man is too good-looking, ice blue eyes, indifference reveals a trace of affection, high nose bridge, plus the whole person exudes a charming kingly atmosphere, people are reluctant to take their eyes off his face.

The dance that Lan Xiang prepared at the beginning originally wanted to dance for Nangong Jue, wanting to attract Nangong Jue with her beauty and dancing posture, but when Lan Xiang saw Jun Moyan, the whole person was stunned, and Lan Xiang looked at Jun Moyan and lowered her head shyly.

Sitting on the opposite side, Gu Xi took in Lanxiang's movements. He shook the wine glass in front of him and spit out three words in his mouth: "Interesting." ”

"I also find it interesting. Nangong Jue heard Gu Xi's words and hurriedly answered.

Gu Xi turned his head and glanced at Nangong Jue beside him and said, "Why are you everywhere." ”

"Didn't the queen attend this birthday banquet for the lord of the Jinsu Kingdom?" Jun Moyan asked after glancing at Concubine Chen, who was sitting next to Mu Shangze.

"Oh, the queen she was not feeling well, so she did not attend. Mu Shangze heard Jun Moyan ask Gu Qingyan and hurriedly explained.

"Oh...... Is it unwell? That's really not a coincidence, I heard that Empress Jin Suguo danced a must, and I wanted to see the style, but it seems that I can't appreciate it. Jun Moyan said and held the wine glass in his hand hard, as if he was about to crush it.

"This ......" Mu Shangze looked at Jun Moyan with some embarrassment.

Concubine Chen on the side said to Mu Shangze: "Your Majesty, if my sister hears that she can dance for the lord of Siyin Country, I believe that there will be no illness." ”

When Mu Shangze heard Concubine Chen say this, although he felt a little inappropriate in his heart, it was not easy to refute it, so he smiled and said to Jun Moyan: "Yes, yes, yes." ”

"Come on, go and invite the queen. Mu Shangze immediately ordered the palace people to invite Gu Qingyan.
