Chapter 94: Wine and Wine
The stars are dotted, and the lotus leaves are deep.
The lights are shining brightly, and the voices are shouting.
At the end of the night feast, there was another grand event at the end of the feast, that is, the leader of the sword dance was ordered to be rewarded and perform a wine banquet on behalf of the people.
When Tao Xin'er knelt respectfully in the center of the Pujia platform, Yue Xingyun was still unsure of what to reward.
This Taoxin'er identity is extremely special, I can't tell whether it is a person from Bailuyuan or a person who has no heart, and Shuyi's attitude towards her has always been unpredictable, so the reward is generous for fear of raising the arrogance of Bai Dye, and the reward is thin and afraid of hitting Shuyi's face, which is very difficult to decide for a while.
"If the Moon Pavilion Lord feels embarrassed and doesn't know what to reward, it is better to wait and think about it when he goes back tonight, maybe tomorrow morning, he will know what to reward. ”
Shuyi's words, the four were in an uproar.
Over the years, the Mid-Autumn Festival Night Banquet has been rewarded in court, how can there be such an exception, and I don't know if His Royal Highness King Yi really dislikes Tao Xin'er and deliberately spoils her good deeds, or if he cares about the old feelings, he deliberately takes care of Tao Xin'er and secretly puts pressure on Yue Xingyun.
Naturally, there is a deep meaning here, and everyone in the court is just figuring out one or two, and the right to joke and talk, mainly relying on Yue Xingyun to taste it himself.
Others don't know what Shuyi means, but Tao Xin'er is very clear in her heart, he has never had love for her, where did the old love come from?
But who can tell you about those things in the past? As long as she insists that Shuyi is having an affair with her, how can Shuyi tolerate her? Tao Xin'er put away the grim smile on the corner of her lips, and Shi Shiran raised her head.
"Xin'er Xie Gongzi remembers, but don't embarrass the Moon Pavilion Lord, the Pavilion Master will come according to the old practice, no matter what is rewarded, it is the glory of Xin'er. ”
Tao Xin'er smiled and smiled, cleverly making everyone think that Shuyi still had grace for her, and even Yue Xingyun almost believed her.
"Then reward ......"
As soon as Yue Xing Yunfu spoke, Shu Yi immediately interrupted, "This king feels that the Moon Pavilion Lord should go back and think about it for a night, and tomorrow morning, it's not too late to make a reward." ”
Shuyi's face was gloomy, his words were not good, and he repeatedly emphasized that he was thinking about it all night, Yue Xingyun was originally a smart person, and he immediately understood Shuyi's meaning, and he was afraid that something was going to happen tonight.
"There are a lot of affairs in the cabinet these days, Yue Mou has indeed neglected this matter, it is not easy for the peach girl to win the top spot this year, how can she give it at will, or His Royal Highness King Yi is thoughtful, Yue Mou still goes back to think about it, and tomorrow morning he will give the reward to Bailu Yuan. ”
Yue Xingyun still seems to have a consistent style, humble and polite, no one refutes face, and what he says seems to be fair, but in fact he is sleek, and he takes care of each other.
Tao Xin'er smiled decently, pretending not to care at all, and thanked respectfully, "Thank you Pavilion Master for bothering"
"Peach girl doesn't have to be polite. Yue Xingyun nodded lightly in return.
"It is rumored that the glow-in-the-dark glass of grape wine, Elder Fei Ci happened to have obtained a new fine wine from another city, and specially asked me to give it to the princess to taste. Tao Xin'er shook her head, holding the jade dragon pot Shi Shiran and walked towards the chief banquet table.
Everyone thought that Tao Xin'er's first wine would definitely be given to Shuyi, whether it was from the status or from Tao Xin'er's affection, it should be none other than Shuyi. But I didn't expect that Tao Xin'er actually paid tribute to her rival Yihong Gongzi for the first time, is she broad-minded or does she have other plans?
The eyes of the banquet were focused on the glow-in-the-dark glass of grape wine held in Tao Xin'er's hand. The moonlight is warm and clean, and the peach heart is like jade. Huaxin looked at Tao Xin'er a few more times fixedly, lazily raised her finger to take the luminous cup from her hand, shook it gently, and played with it carefully.
"It's been many years since I've drunk the wine you poured yourself, and now you're a little noble, but I didn't expect this servant to be so skillful, but he hasn't been wasted for a day. ”
Huaxin curled his lips lightly, smiled lightly, and sneered lowly, mocking Taoxin'er that a slave is like a slave, and he will never be able to ascend to the hall of elegance. It's not that Huaxin regards identity and status as very important, but he doesn't like Taoxin'er's fake deference, and he can't help but hurt her.
doesn't put Tao Xin'er in her eyes, and she doesn't even bother to figure out the reason why Tao Xin'er served her wine, and no matter what the mystery is in this wine, she lazily raises her glass and wants to drink it all.
Shuyi immediately reached out and held it, took the wine cup from Huaxin's hand, Tao Xin'er's heart tightened slightly, thinking that Shuyi was going to drink for Huaxin, but saw Shuyi pour the wine in the luminous cup into the ordinary gold cup and handed it to her, "The princess has not cleared the poison, it is not suitable to drink, it is rare for the elder Fei Ci to bother, it is a waste to live up to his good intentions, it is better for you to drink for the princess." ”
"This is the princess's wine, how can the heart drink it. Tao Xin'er sneered.
"This king says that you can drink, and you will drink. Shuyi sent the golden cup to Tao Xin'er again.
Shuyi's eyes were cold, and Tao Xin'er's face was pale, Tao Xin'er didn't dare to reach out to pick it up, the two were deadlocked, and the tip of Tao Xin'er's nose was oozing cold sweat.
Fei Ci has to serve some fresh things every Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, grape wine is said to be the most treasured holy wine in the southern wine city, it has the effect of nourishing the beauty of women, it is not easy to brew, and it is not easy to get it in the outer city, only smelling this fragrant wine, but also knowing that this wine is precious, I think it should be that Fei Ci wants to win over Yihong Gongzi, the upstart in the pavilion, so he specially took out the treasure.
And Shuyi gave the wine that Fei Ci gave to Huaxin, which is nothing more than a gift in the eyes of most people, but I feel that Shuyi still misses Taoxin'er's old feelings.
Only Tao Xin'er knows that there should have been something passive in this wine.
"What, you dare to give this wine to the princess, but you don't dare to drink it?" Shuyi snorted at Tao Xin'er.
Tao Xin'er trembled and took the wine cup. Looking at Shuyi's eyes were complicated and indescribable, a heartbroken pain, he noticed that there was something wrong with the wine, and he spilled it, how could he force her to drink so ruthlessly?
Yun Yi saw Tao Xin'er holding a cup and wanted to drink, so he immediately left the table and walked to Tao Xin'er's side and stretched out his hand to stop it, and pleaded for Tao Xin'er, "Your Royal Highness King Yi, Xin'er is also an old illness that has not been cured, and it is not suitable to drink, and I hope Your Highness will be compassionate." ”
"The emperor's grace is vast, how can it be unreasonable, if Elder Yun Yi really wants to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, this king will allow you to drink half a cup on her behalf. "The first day of taking office, the prince of Yida, was full of royal majesty, and he was not unfamiliar at all.
The attendant on the side was ordered to immediately divide the wine in the golden cup into two, one cup to Yun Yi, and one to Tao Xin'er. Yun Yi took the wine cup and put it to his lips, and smiled at Tao Xin'er, "I'll drink first, and you will drink again." ”
Tao Xin'er understood what Yun Yi meant, the king wanted the minister to die, the minister had to die, after all, it was necessary to die a person to end the battle, if Yun Yi died of poison first, she could be saved.
Tao Xin'er didn't expect that Yun Yi would be able to do this for her!
For a moment, Tao Xin'er wanted to stop Yun Yi, but because of the slightest hesitation, Yun Yi had already raised his glass and drank it all.
