The rough guy who wears it fast is too strong

Chu's mother's eyes were sparkling, and she was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear. She pulled Chu Li around and kept mumbling.

"Not bad, not bad. I wonder who can fall in love with you when you are dressed like this, hahaha!"

Chu Li was speechless. She wanted to say that it didn't have to be like this. No one would like her if she didn't dress like this. But she didn't feel ashamed to dress like this because she was thick-skinned.

After a simple breakfast, Chu Li followed Chu's father and mother into the palace. In fact, Chu Li still had two sisters who were not married. The third sister, Chu Yan, was seventeen years old and was already engaged. The fourth sister, Chu Xin, had just gotten haircut at the age of sixteen and had not yet been engaged. Chu Li had been persuading her parents to get Chu Xin engaged as soon as possible, and the engagement was only made a month ago, so they did not have to attend the palace banquet.

The main reason is that it is not as bad as marrying a daughter. If something happens to the family again, the two sisters can escape by getting married early. Another reason is that Chu Yu is the Minister of Household Affairs, and all the princes are eyeing his legitimate daughter. If Chu Li gets the top prize again, then the fourth sister's marriage may not be decided by her father.

Marrying a prince is not a good thing. Each prince has one main concubine, two side concubines, and a bunch of concubines. If he can succeed in becoming the emperor, it will be fine. If he fails, he may not even be able to save his life. Emperors have been ruthless since ancient times. , the superior beheads his brothers first, how can he allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the bed...

Soon, Chu Li and the other three arrived at the palace.

Entering the banquet courtyard, the first thing that caught your eye was the rows of seats and the courtiers and family members who were basically seated. As soon as Chu Li came in, everyone's eyes immediately focused on him. Their expressions were either surprised, frowning, confused, or contemptuous, and they all slandered in their hearts. What kind of outfit is this?

Young men from aristocratic families generally wear light colors, mostly white or silver. There are also some who dress a little more gorgeously, but they are all generous and decent.Only Chu Li was wearing flashy clothes, red and yellow and green, and she had a confident look on her face and an imposing chin, just like a colorful-feathered rooster...

Is this Jieyuan? The legitimate daughters of high-ranking officials were originally looking forward to seeing the appearance of Jie Yuan of the Imperial Academy, and some had even begun to inquire about Chu Li. As a result, everyone started to lower their heads, covering their faces with handkerchiefs, as if they were afraid of being spotted by Chu Li.

Chu Li's eyes were cunning, and she was secretly happy that the effect he wanted was achieved, and Chu's mother also breathed a sigh of relief.

After the three of them sat down, Chu Yu exchanged greetings with his colleagues, Chu's mother chatted with familiar close friends, and Chu Li was the only one who concentrated on eating pastries. Banquets are held in family units, and seats are allocated according to official position or status. The more distinguished the person, the closer they are to the emperor. Men and women could sit at the same table. This dynasty was relatively open.

After a while, a familiar figure appeared on the stage, causing all the ladies to look at her sideways, with a blush on their faces and whispers.

"Which family does this young master belong to? His appearance is so outstanding, but his red clothes are too low-key."

"This seems to be the legitimate son of the general's family, his name is Lu An."

"Lu An? So it's him? I originally wanted to pay more attention to him, but I didn't expect it to be the bastard who was expelled from the Imperial College."

"Oh, what a pity for this appearance..."

Lu An, dressed in scarlet clothes and uninhibited with a bit of a ruffian's temperament, walked up to Chu Li, raised his eyebrows at Chu Li, and sat down on the seat next to Chu Li.

Next, the princesses and princes also came in one after another. A total of eight princesses and eleven princes came. The princesses were all dressed up luxuriously. They were choosing their son-in-law today, and they didn't want to be left behind. After they sat down, they began to observe the young masters present without any secret...

The old emperor, the queen and the concubines came in last. As soon as they came in, they motioned for everyone to get up, and then Concubine Cao announced that the banquet had begun.

The first performer was Su Luoying, the daughter of the Minister of Rites, who had a reputation as a talented woman among the noble ladies in the capital. She played a pipa, and she lived up to her reputation as a talented woman. It was as clear and clear as flowing water, as if a young girl was playing the pipa. Dancing in the rain.

The old emperor and the queen and concubines all spoke highly of it.

Su Luoying is not particularly stunning in appearance, but she is a delicate and gentle type. She is very elegant and attractive, and she is also well-dressed and well-dressed.After finishing playing, Su Luoying glanced at Mu Qinghan inadvertently, and this glance was keenly caught by Chu Li.

Oh, it seems that you are interested in Mu Qinghan?However, Mu Qinghan couldn't tell what his attitude was, his face was expressionless.

However, several other young masters couldn't help but look at Su Luoying, as if they were interested in her.

It was said that Mu Qinghan was a popular candidate to compete with her to solve the problem. Unexpectedly, he failed. When she heard the news, she was shocked and felt a little bit unusual.

When Princess Wenxuan saw Su Luoying's eyes, her eyes were filled with coldness. She dared to look at the person she liked? With a sinister look in his eyes, he smiled and said, "Miss Su plays the pipa really well."

Su Luoying was startled, then stood up and bowed slightly, "Thank you for the compliment, princess."

Princess Wenxuan did not respond to her asking her to sit down. Instead, she turned to face the second prince and smiled: "Second brother, I think this young lady from the Su family is really good. Second brother, what do you think?"

The second prince immediately looked at Su Luoying, glanced at her whole body, as if looking at a plate of food, and then nodded, "That's good, sit down."

Su Luoying's face turned pale, and she sat down in a daze.

Concubine Cao rolled her eyes, chuckled, and looked at the old emperor: "It seems that the second child has another concubine today. I look at it, and the two of them are really well matched."

The old emperor nodded and said only: "Yes, this girl can be a concubine."

Hearing this, Chu Li felt sick in her heart. The second prince must be almost forty, and Su Luoying has just turned sixteen. How is this a good match?

The second prince was born to Concubine Cao. Of course she was happy for her son to accept the daughter of the Minister of Rites as a concubine. The Minister of Rites' official position was not big or small, so she could be a concubine and give her son an extra boost.

Immediately afterwards, several noble ladies performed their talents, but they were all mediocre, and the audience praised them politely.

When it was Mu Qingyu's turn, as soon as she came on the stage, everyone's eyes immediately focused on her. She was not dressed deliberately, and even seemed to be dressed plainly, but her appearance was too bright and attractive. No matter how plain she is, she can't hide her face.

She lowered her head and played a simple guzheng song, and then was about to bow and leave when the old emperor spoke.

"The ladies of the Mu family are indeed worthy of their reputation. This reminds me of a poem, looking back and smiling, the pink and white in the sixth palace have no color~"

As soon as these words came out, Mu Qingyu's heart skipped a beat and her expression suddenly changed.

When Concubine Cao heard this, she immediately understood what the emperor meant. She smiled and took out a pair of white marble bracelets, "These bracelets were given by the emperor as a reward to my concubine. Now that I am older, these good things will be left to my sister." Bar."

After saying that, he looked at Mu Qingyu and said, "Miss Mu's guzheng is so beautiful. I will give you these bracelets."

Mu Qingyu thanked her tremblingly and took the bracelet. Before she could step back, the queen smiled and took Mu Qingyu's arm, "I'll give this hairpin to Qingyu too." Then she turned to face the emperor and smiled: "I think it's better to choose a day than to meet the sun. Why don't you accept Qingyu as your concubine today? What do you think, Your Majesty?"

The old emperor was waiting for someone to say this to him. He laughed and said, "Yes!" After saying that, he stared at Mu Qingyu's whole body with a lewd look, and then glanced at Lu An inadvertently.

Chu Li stopped breathing for a moment, this dog emperor!

He couldn't help but look at Lu An, and saw Lu An's gloomy face. This was his elder brother's beloved person.

Lu An pursed his lips tightly, and his hands had already been clenched into fists under the table. When he looked at Mu Qinghan, his expression was dim and expressionless, but Chu Li could feel his low pressure.

The first empress was Mu Qinghan's biological aunt, and now she wants to adopt his biological sister as his concubine...

The reason why Princess Wenxuan called Mu Qinghan her cousin was because Princess Wenxuan was the daughter of the new queen, so Mu Qinghan replied that she was ‘not a relative’...

Chu Li thought to herself, this old emperor is no longer good at that, why is he still thinking about the little girl? He is really an old man. However, thanks to her early drugging of the Dog Emperor...
