General and Princess
Chapter 44:
The palace banquet in three days will arrive in a blink of an eye.
In the palace with carved beams and painted buildings, the huge antlers are placed in the center.
It is surrounded by round luminous pearls.
It is reflected on the surrounding white night pearls, and the pearls are also reflected in a brilliant light, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.
The ministers were deeply attracted by the sight in front of them.
"The country of Xiao has great luck." The Minister of Rites echoed this sentence.
The emperor looked at the expressions of the surrounding ministers and nodded with satisfaction.
The Empress and Concubine Wan sat next to the emperor, while Concubine Li sat next to Concubine Wan.
The surrounding ministers looked at this scene, originally felt that the fourth prince was out of power, and he had concerns in his heart.
The third prince's eyes were gloomy. He thought he had the upper hand, but he did not expect to be chased by the fourth prince.
Di Shengyue took everyone's reaction into her eyes and hooked her lips slightly.
The sound of silk and bamboo is endless, the table is full of sea delicacies, and two identical silver pots are placed in front.
In the cup, the transparent liquid glows with a lustrous luster.
Di Shengyue picked up a cup, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed, there was only a faint fruity fragrance.
She looked at the two silver pots placed in front of her, and there was a flash of light in her eyes.
Although the two silver pots are exactly the same, one holds fruit tea and the other holds fine wine.
It is the most famous sweet-scented osmanthus wine in Xiao country.
This wine only smells of sweet-scented osmanthus, but the wine is strong.
She was about to pour herself a glass, but she was caught by a small white hand halfway.
Di Shengyue turned her head to look, and met Xiao Yinxue's slightly angry eyes.
"Why didn't I know you were good at wine!" Xiao Yinxue said.
"Princess, I'm just curious and want to try it." Di Shengyue said.
"Drunken mistake!" Xiao Yinxue snatched the jug from Di Shengyue and put it back in place.
"Princess, I have already made arrangements." Di Shengyue said.
"That won't work either." Xiao Yinxue pushed the jug farther, thought about it, and ordered Luoxiang to put the jug down, but found that Luoxiang was not there.
"Where is Luoxiang?" Xiao Yinxue looked around and found that Luoxiang disappeared for some time, frowned, and asked You Taodao.
"Back to the princess, Luoxiang said to go back to Fengxi Palace to get some things for the princess." You Tao replied, "Princess, do you want to pass Luoxiang back now?"
"No need." Xiao Yinxue shook her head, knowing that Luo Xiang has always been a measured person, and she didn't think too much.
"Then put away the jug." Xiao Yinxue instructed You Tao.
"Yes." You Tao nodded.
Di Shengyue obediently handed the jug to You Tao.
"Why are you so obedient today?" Xiao Yinxue raised her eyebrows and looked at Di Shengyue.
According to Di Shengyue's temperament, she must struggle a few more times.
"After all, it's a palace banquet." Di Shengyue's eyes hidden a hint of a smile, and said, "Outside, the princess is the biggest, I have to listen to the princess." But inside, It's hard to say.
Xiao Yinxue snorted lightly and heard Di Shengyue's implication.
It's hard to tell who's listening.
"Princess, let me serve you well." Di Shengyue picked up the pot on the table and poured a cup for Xiao Yinxue.
Xiao Yinxue took the cup and hadn't taken a sip.
The sound of the music suddenly became heated.
Dancers in red gauze dresses entered the palace banquet venue, enchanting figures dancing around the antlers.
The waist of the dancer headed by her is extremely slender and flexible, not enough to hold.
It's like walking in the air.
Her beautiful eyes shone like the stars, touching the soul.
The surrounding ministers were deeply attracted.
This dancer is so beautiful!
It's just that the waist is a little slender, the waist is a little more flexible, and the figure is slender!
She is a little worse in every way!
Di Shengyue is watching so intently!
Feeling the fiery gaze from the side, Di Shengyue looked back subconsciously.
Just met those sullen eyes.
After thinking for a while, she knew where Xiao Yinxue's anger came from.
"Princess, look at your little mouth, you can hang a teapot." Di Shengyue smiled, and her index finger gently scratched Xiao Yinxue's little mouth, "I Look at that dancer, not because that dancer is good-looking. That dancer is a meticulous work."
"How did you see it?" Xiao Yinxue blinked curiously.
"The princess thought, why did the emperor want to hold this palace banquet?" Di Shengyue asked rhetorically.
"In order to show auspiciousness, the whole world celebrates." Xiao Yinxue thought for a while and said.
"Yes, no." Di Shengyue's eyes showed a hint of wisdom, and said, "Princess, what do you think of the guards at the venue?"
Thinking about the scene where Luo Xiang easily went out, Xiao Yinxue said, "It's very slack."
"That's right."Di Shengyue laughed, "Why is the guard so lax about something so important as auspiciousness? Could it be that the emperor is the one who would forget about it because he was excited for a while? The one who arranged the guards?"
"Naturally not." Xiao Yinxue shook her head, she knew better than anyone how suspicious and cautious her father was.
The defense is so lax, it can only be the father's intention.
Xiao Yinxue thought about it, and suddenly understood her father's plan.
The father did this deliberately, just to lure those fine tricks in the palace to take the bait.
Last time I didn’t succeed on my way back to Beijing, so this generous palace banquet is a chance to start with these fine works.
"It's just that using auspicious auspiciousness as bait is too much..." Xiao Yinxue suddenly reacted, "My father already knew that it was a fake auspicious auspiciousness?"
If this is not the case, who would dare to gamble with something that represents the fortune of the country. ,
"You said that you had an idea, I thought it was a good idea." Thinking that the father already knew that Di Shengyue was playing tricks, Xiao Yinxue couldn't help but feel anxious, "The crime of deceiving the king, It's a capital crime! You, how can you..."
The royal father did not convict at this moment, but it was only to elicit the fine work. When the fine work was caught, Di Shengyue's crime would be issued.
"Bullying you?" Di Shengyue hooked her lips and smiled, "Where is the evidence?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a faint smoke suddenly filled the surroundings of the dancer.
The dancer headed by the dancer suddenly rose in the air, with the lingering smoke, like a fairy descending to the earth.
Her hands were inserted into the coiled bun, and the black hair fell like a waterfall.
Her fingertips faintly flickered with silver light, and upon closer inspection, there were dozens of steel needles!
Di Shengyue reacted the fastest, she shouted: "escort!"
Then stopped in front of the emperor with great speed.
Dozens of steel needles shot straight at Di Shengyue.
Xiao Yinxue looked at this scene and covered her mouth nervously, she felt that she was about to breathe out.
The dark guards hiding everywhere suddenly appeared, guarding in front of the emperor, completely blocking these steel needles.
Seeing that Di Shengyue was all right, Xiao Yinxue breathed a sigh of relief.
She was almost scared to death by Di Shengyue just now, how could she be so impulsive!
"There are assassins! Escort!" The **** only reacted at this time, shouting loudly, as he moved closer to the emperor.
The emperor looked at Di Shengyue with soft eyes.
At the most critical moment, it was Di Shengyue who rushed to save him.
On the basis of this move, the emperor confirmed Di Shengyue's heartfelt heart.
Perhaps, he shouldn't let Di Shengyue into the family.
Such a loyal minister, if placed on the battlefield, will surely succeed.
But this thought only appeared in my mind for a moment.
Taking advantage of this chaos, the dancer threw the long sleeves in her hands to the beams of the high place, and with this force, the whole person rushed out of the hall.
"Auspiciousness, auspiciousness is gone!" In the chaos, I don't know who shouted.
Everyone turned their attention to the antlers in the middle and found that it was already empty.
The assassin's attack was too sudden, everyone's eyes were focused on the emperor, and when he came back to his senses, the antlers had already been taken away.
The Queen was the first to react and said: "The assassin must not have gone far now, the Royal Forest Army, guard the radius of ten miles, and search for this palace! Be sure to catch this assassin!"
Dancer, you can't let one go."
When the dancers heard the words, they fell to their knees and shivered.
"Your Majesty." Di Shengyue bowed and said, "Wei Chen thought that auspiciousness would not be on these dancers."
"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows, looked at Di Shengyue, and said, "What do you think?"
"Report to the emperor." Di Shengyue said, "the other party has spent all their energy arranging such a dance, and then used such a wonderful prelude. Don't you expect that we will Detain all the remaining dancers? So it is absolutely impossible for auspiciousness to be on these dancers."
Di Shengyue turned her gaze on the surrounding ministers and said, "Then the auspiciousness must be on the surrounding ministers or concubines."
The current atmosphere suddenly solidified.
"How can I find it?" asked the emperor.
"Report to the emperor, in fact, as long as this auspiciousness is still in the palace, it is not difficult to find." Di Shengyue smiled and said, "Wei Chen has done a lot of spice business with the princess these days, and he It is stained with a strong smell of spices. Among them, there is the most famous Soho incense in Wei State, if it gets a little on it, the fragrance will last for three days." She said that, in fact, she touched a lot of spices on the antlers .
Di Shengyue doesn't need to say the rest, the emperor also knows.
Everyone present, as long as anyone is contaminated with this fragrance, it is a person who steals auspiciousness.
It's just that the aroma is not very strong, and there are not no people who have been in contact with Di Shengyue.
"Your Majesty, my son will remember that Concubine Rou raised a Xuanfeng." Xiao Ning took a step forward and said, "Xuanfeng loves spices the most, and likes to put them in spices. drilled."
"In that case, let Concubine Rou bring that Xuanfeng." The emperor ordered someone to call Concubine Rou.
Concubine Rou soon appeared at the palace banquet.
Seeing such a serious scene, she was stunned for a moment, and hesitated at the door a little timidly, until the emperor was about to get impatient before entering the hall.
"The concubine sees the emperor." Concubine Rou bowed respectfully, and then patted Xuanfeng on the shoulder.
Xuanfeng fluttered her wings and circled in the hall, suddenly turned sharply down, and flew straight towards the Minister of the Ministry of Housing.
The sharp claws slashed fiercely on the court clothes of the Minister of the Ministry of Commerce, and made several openings on it.
"I like it! I like it!" Xuanfeng's sharp voice sounded.
Hubu Shangshu's complexion suddenly changed greatly, he waved his sleeves desperately, but Xuanfeng seemed to recognize him and kept grabbing on him.
"Take him down!" Di Shengyue shouted fiercely and rushed out first.
Hubu Shangshu was just about to escape, but for some reason, a flame suddenly burst into his clothes.
The Minister of Household hurriedly took off his court clothes and threw it out.
Two things are completely involved.
Before everyone could even react, they had already turned into a pile of ashes.
Everyone looked at the pile of ashes and couldn't recover for a while.
The emperor seemed to be in a hurry, and ordered the Minister of the Household to be detained and executed on another day.
The other assassin has not been caught yet, so the minister can only stay in the hall.
The ministers present had lingering fears and lowered their heads.
The auspiciousness was destroyed, and everyone was afraid to speak.
Di Shengyue returned to Xiao Yinxue, but met Xiao Yinxue's angry eyes: "Just now, you are very powerful, aren't you?"
"Princess, first drink a cup of fruit tea to cool off?" Di Shengyue picked up the cup in front of Xiao Yinxue and handed it to Xiao Yinxue.
