The enchanting prince and the sweet concubine

The two walked side by side, not very close, and did not say anything, and after a while, they arrived at the Hall of Music where the banquet was held today.

It was relatively early, and only some invited officials were present in the huge hall. Prime Minister Mu's family also came, sitting and drinking tea and chatting, and him, Prince Ruiqing of Chudu——Du Zirui, he was alone One person was sitting at the farthest corner of the hall, eating peanuts and drinking wine.Hearing the eunuch's announcement, all the officials stood up and saluted Xiao Yi. Du Zirui also raised his eyelids, and after just a glance, he frowned and lowered his eyelids again, his eyes flashed with disappointment for a moment.

Xiao Yi walked slowly to his own seat, accepted the courtesy and compliments from a group of officials, and Du Zirui, who was slightly off the corner of his eyes, felt a flash of pleasure in his heart.

When Mu Ziqian heard the eunuch's announcement, she raised her head and saw Xiao Yi and Lou Muqin appearing together, feeling displeased for a while.Compared to Lan Duoduo, she hated seeing Lou Muqin even more, but she had to know that no one would hinder her from becoming Xiao Yi's side concubine.Mu Ziqian wasn't surprised that Lan Duoduo didn't show up, she had already inquired that she and Gu Ruyan were very close, maybe she would show up with the princess.

Lou Muqin also accepted the compliments from the officials, and glanced towards Du Zirui. He was sitting too far away, and if there were too many people waiting, she would definitely not see him, so she simply couldn't go over to greet him.Since she was 12 years old, she has often seen him in Fudu. It is also very strange. He is obviously the prince of Chudu, but Xiaohuang treats him unusually well. Although he is still Xiao Yi's cousin, the two have never interacted with each other. .He naturally knew about his romantic name and bad deeds.She, too, couldn't understand such a dude.She has always been proud and arrogant. Looking at the men in the world, she looks down on them except Xiao Yi. In her heart, other men are not perfect.She turned around and sat in the most visible position, just facing Xiao Yi.

Today's palace banquet was originally set up for her, so it's because of her honor that everyone can sit here.

"Mother, look..." Mu Ziqian became anxious. Since the Lou xyloqin is sitting opposite Xiao Yi, the two of them are only separated by a table, and she can only sit on the Lou xylophone. The next few positions depend on looking at Xiao Yi, and you have to lean over to see half of his face.

"Qian'er, Lou girl likes to wield knives and guns, just like a man. Many men don't like such a woman. How can we, Qian'er, be the number one talented woman in Xiao Zhanguo, and she is also a dignified lady? How can we compare with her? "Mu Ziqian frowned, pouted, and listened to his mother's words, and felt a little better.

Looking at Lou Muqin's oval face and smiling at Xiao Yi opposite, she felt uncomfortable all over; "Mother, she is so close to him, and I am so far away from him, she preempted her."

"Is it useful to sit close?" Madam Mu said with a smile, "Look, the princess of the Lanling Kingdom married Prince Yi and lived in the same mansion every day. Isn't it closer, but Prince Yi didn't even let her come to the dinner party." Although Mrs. Mu comforted her daughter a little, her own daughter was unmatched in her heart. Since her daughter liked Prince Yi, let her go, not to mention that Prince Yi might become the future heir apparent.

Following the cry of the eunuch, she was wearing a white tube top embroidered with pale pink lotus flowers, a skirt of flowers dragging the floor around her waist, holding a misty smoky green smoke veil dragging the floor, her hair was combed in a hibiscus bun, and a beaded hairpin was pinned in her hair. Gu Ruyan, who has a godly, charming face with a smile on her face, and Prince Xiao Feng, who is dressed in bright yellow and dark court clothes, walked in hand in hand.

Everyone looked over and couldn't help being amazed, Gu Ruyan was so beautiful today, she could tell that the gorgeous skirt was from the Splendid Palace, even Mu Ziqian couldn't help but stare at her, this Xiao Zhanguo's number one The beauty is really amazing.Lou Muqin, on the other hand, just glanced at her, she never liked such a delicate woman like Gu Ruyan.

She got up and went forward to salute, "Xylophone has met His Royal Highness, and seen the Crown Princess."

"General Lou, you don't need to be too polite, you are the protagonist tonight!" Xiao Feng said with a faint smile, and smiled at Gu Ruyan.

"By the way, His Highness King Yi, why didn't Xiaoduo come?" Gu Ruyan looked at Xiao Yi who was sitting firmly like a mountain. The seat next to him was empty. When Gu Ruyan asked him, his expression became a little uncomfortable.

"Brother Yi, why don't you see the little concubine?" Xiao Feng also stared at him with a puzzled look on his face, but that day the emperor specially reminded her to come, and all the clothes made by Jinxiu Palace were sent by eunuchs.

Mu Ziqian also noticed that Lan Duoduo did not appear with Gu Ruyan, she stood up from her seat and walked over, "Prince Yi, why didn't the concubine and sister come, I thought she came in to find the princess first!" Mu Ziqian Qian asked with a smile, her eyes still squinting at Lou Muqin who was standing beside her. She just wanted to come out on purpose to signal that she had a relationship with Princess Yi.

Sure enough, Lou Muqin's expression became displeased, and she forced a smile and said, "Yes! I heard that His Royal Highness Yi Wang has married a concubine, but today Xiao Huang took over the xylophone to clean up the dust, why does His Highness Yi not bring the princess to show the xylophone?" She It's a special reminder that she is the real protagonist tonight!Although she didn't know whether the princess deliberately looked down on her as a female general, or Xiao Yi didn't want her to come, but seeing Mu Ziqian's face, she thought she was ridiculous, and a woman without brains owed her to Xiao Zhanguo The first talented woman.

In the corner, Du Zirui, who had been drinking by himself, suddenly put down the cup in his hand, and looked coldly at Xiao Yi, who was the most conspicuous in the hall. will be able to see.

Why does he hate him so much?I can't tell, but it's probably his hair that makes him feel like a donkey.

He shook his head and smiled bitterly, the soreness in his stomach made him unable to drink down the fine wine.He hates Xiao Yi, but why is his third younger brother his concubine? Why doesn't she come tonight?

People just like to have trouble with themselves. They don't care about so many beautiful people and things around them, but they just miss things that don't belong to them.God gave her to him, so what can he complain about!Blame God for never caring for him, seeing whether other people have a mother who dotes on him; or blame God for giving him a father who regards his son as an enemy.He can't complain, because this is life.

No matter how strong a person is, he is not as strong as his life, let alone he is not strong.

"The emperor is here! The empress is here!" The eunuch's voice sounded in front of the palace gate, Lou Muqin and the others stood in front of their seats, Du Zirui also stood up, and together with the Civil and Military Palace, faced the most distinguished two salute.

Xiao Huang was still smiling as usual, sitting at the top, with Queen Gu sitting beside him.His eyes swept across the people in the hall, and he frowned suddenly: "Yi'er, why didn't Xiaoduo come?"

Xiao Yi got up from his seat calmly, with a trembling voice, "Father, Xiaoduo is sick." His peach blossom eyes suddenly paled, Lou Muqin looked at him thoughtfully, Gu Ruyan heard Xiaoduo Yi's words showed worry on her face, she looked at Xiao Feng who was at the side, Xiao Feng just patted her hand to comfort her.

"Sick? I wasn't alive and kicking the day before yesterday, why did I get sick all of a sudden?" Xiao Huang frowned, with a bit of blame in his tone, and even Empress Gu's face became slightly worried.

"It's a cold, it's okay, I've taken the medicine, but my son saw that it was raining, so I told her not to come." Xiao Yi replied with a faint smile, Xiao Huang nodded helplessly, and Xiao Yi sat down with peace of mind.

Du Zirui was stunned, seeing that she was fine yesterday, why did she fall ill all of a sudden, Xiao Yi, a donkey, is so considerate?

"Where's Zirui? Why do you always like to sit in the corner? Come on, sit in the front and let me see you!" Xiao Huangyang smiled, with a kind face on his face. This Du Zirui likes to sit in the corner at every banquet. , Xiao Huang called him every time, which made many people dissatisfied with him and felt that he did it on purpose.

Du Zirui, who was in a daze, woke up suddenly, regained his proud smile, raised his eyebrows a little, walked obediently and quickly to the front of the hall, and sat on Xiao Yi's lower head, which happened to be the third brother's place.Xiao Yi and Du Zirui are three points alike, especially Du Zirui's phoenix eyes, inherited from his beautiful mother, every time Xiao Huang sees him, he always smiles.Although Du Zirui knew that Xiao Huang was so kind to him, half of it was because of his status, but he was also happy, at least compared to his so-called father, Xiao Huang did not know how much more kind.
