Dusk began to fall, and in the banquet hall, the palace lanterns were shining high, people were drinking and laughing, and beauties in red makeup and gorgeous clothes were dancing on the dance floor;

It was cold and quiet outside, with thousands of bright lights swaying in the wind, and palace maids shuttled back and forth carrying plates from time to time.

The palace maid quickly took Chu Yunyan to the rest room, then closed the door thoughtfully and exited. Although it is just a temporary resting place, it is a suite and has all the necessary things.

Ningyue helped Chu Yunyan sit down on the bed, then poured a cup of tea on the table, and after checking it to confirm it was safe, let Chu Yunyan drink some.

Chu Yunyan lay down and squinted her eyes. She felt that her heartbeat was a little too fast. She pressed her chest with her hand and took a few deep breaths.

Ning Yue looked at Chu Yunyan nervously and asked, "Princess, you feel uncomfortable in your heart? Do you want to call Lord Rufeng?"

Chu Yunyan shook her head slightly. After about a quarter of an hour, she felt that the heat in her body was no longer so severe, and her heartbeat also tended to slow down.

Ningyue hurriedly soaked the handkerchief in water, then wrung it out and handed it to Chu Yunyan.

Chu Yunyan took the handkerchief and gently wiped the thin sweat from her forehead and nose.

After she calmed down, she began to think about what caused her discomfort. After thinking about it, she said to Ningyue: "Maybe it's a normal reaction of the medicine she just took. We've been out for a while, let's go back now."

In the palace, things can easily go wrong when you are alone, so you have to rush back to the palace banquet as soon as possible to avoid trouble.

Just as Chu Yunyan was about to get up, she heard a knock on the door.

Ning Yue hurriedly went out to check and saw that the person who came was Concubine Ning. She hurriedly opened the door and saluted: "Concubine Ning!"

"I come here to see how Ayan is doing." Concubine Ning walked in with a worried look on her face.

Looking at Chu Yunyan who was sitting on the edge of the bed, her face flushed, she asked, "Is Ayan too drunk?"

"Some of them make the queen worried," Chu Yunyan replied.

"Do you feel any other discomfort? If so, please tell me in time." Concubine Ning said.

Chu Yunyan shook her head and said, "Thank you for your concern, I'm much better now."

"That's good. I'm a little worried. After all, he doesn't do things according to ordinary people's thinking." Concubine Ning said with something in mind.

When Chu Yunyan heard this, she guessed in her mind whether she was referring to Emperor Hui or the third prince? It shouldn't be Emperor Hui. After all, Emperor Hui didn't say anything to him tonight, nor did he do anything specifically.

If it were the third prince, what reason would this person have for targeting him? But now there is no basis for it, and I can't think of it at all.

Rufeng could only stay outside, not knowing the specific situation inside. Yeying hid in the dark and sent a message to Rufeng: "I don't know what's going on with the princess."

Rufeng shook his head gently, feeling worried in his heart.

Chu Yunyan stood up and said, "I feel much more comfortable now. You can go back."

Concubine Ning saw that Chu Yunyan was really in good condition, and she affectionately took Chu Yunyan's hand and walked towards the banquet.

Chu Yunyan didn't understand why Concubine Ning was so enthusiastic about her, so it was safer to be on guard.

Before I could reach the banquet, I saw a palace maid hurriedly coming to report: "Your Majesty, the Queen said she has something urgent to discuss with you."

Concubine Ning glanced at the palace maid, and then said to Chu Yunyan: "Ayan, you go back to the banquet by yourself first, and then go back after I have solved the problem."

"Yes." Chu Yunyan replied.

Seeing Concubine Ning walking away accompanied by the palace maid, Chu Yunyan was ready to move forward.

"Auntie Huang." A voice suddenly came from the darkness next to her.

Chu Yunyan paused when she heard the words. She felt that the voice was very familiar. She remembered that it was the third prince's voice and immediately decided to pretend not to hear it and continue moving forward.

She didn't want to get involved with a junior man of about the same age.

Just as Chu Yunyan took two more steps forward, a figure suddenly appeared quickly from behind and blocked the way.

Ning Yue immediately moved her body and stood in front of Chu Yunyan, looking at the third prince warily.

The third prince stood in the dim light, making it difficult to see his face clearly, giving him an elusive feeling.

Chu Yunyan frowned slightly and said, "It turns out to be the third prince."

Gu Yuanjun stared straight at Chu Yunyan and said softly: "Why did the imperial aunt leave in such a hurry? She didn't even hear what my nephew said."

Chu Yunyan turned a blind eye to his unscrupulous gaze and asked directly: "Does the Third Prince have something to say?"

"My nephew just saw that Aunt Huang seemed a little uncomfortable. How is he doing now?" Gu Yuanjun asked with concern.

"I didn't expect the third prince to be so considerate, but everything is fine with me, so I'm sorry for the trouble." Chu Yunyan responded.

The third prince raised his eyebrows when he heard this, raised one corner of his mouth slightly, and said with a half-smile, "Uncle Sixth Emperor is not in the capital, so it is right for my nephew to care about Auntie Huang on behalf of Uncle Sixth Emperor."

After hearing this, Chu Yunyan resisted the urge to punch the third prince in the face and said directly: "I want to go back to the banquet. Third prince, please get out of the way if nothing happens."

Gu Yuanjun looked at Chu Yunyan in front of him. Her dignified and beautiful face, swaying figure, and noble hairpin made her more colorful and attractive under the light. Compared with the Yingying Yanyan who surrounds him every day, she has a lot of personality. It seems that he was attracted to her when he saw her for the first time.

"My nephew is sending Auntie Huang back." Gu Yuanjun pretended to be polite and considerate, moved to the side to get out of the way, and made an inviting gesture.

Chu Yunyan walked forward with Ningyue regardless.

Gu Yuanjun also raised his feet and walked towards the banquet together.

Returning to the banquet scene, Chu Yunyan sat back down, and the third prince also sat back down on the opposite seat, still looking at Chu Yunyan from time to time.

Chu Yunyan looked at the guests and found that the Queen still maintained a dignified expression, but Concubine Ning had not returned yet.

It's strange. Just now, a palace maid said that the Queen has something to do with Concubine Ning. How come the Queen is still at the banquet but the Concubine is missing?

Chu Yunyan thought about it secretly.

The sky was completely dark and the banquet was coming to an end. Emperor Hui looked at the seat next to him and found that Concubine Ning was not beside him. He frowned slightly, then called the chamberlain behind him and whispered something, and the chamberlain hurried away.

At this time, the Queen Mother suddenly said: "The Ai family has never seen the sixth brother and sister since they married the King of War. It is because the Ai family has not done well enough. Today, I will take the opportunity of the palace banquet to make up for this." fault."

As she said that, she saw the chamberlain behind her handing over a box. The queen took the box and said, "If the sixth brother and sister don't dislike it, then they will accept the Ai family's offer."

Chu Yunyan hurriedly stood up and walked to the middle of the banquet. She bowed her head and said in salute, "The Queen said something serious. It was my concubine who was rude first. The Queen is showing mercy by not pursuing my fault."

The queen sat upright, looking at Chu Yunyan, who was young but well-established, with a pair of scrutinizing eyes. Her heart moved slightly, and she didn't expect that Gu Qingxuan accidentally picked up a pretty good princess.

Soon, the queen said kindly: "Sixth brother and sister are virtuous at first sight. I will definitely be very satisfied if I can marry you."

After saying that, he asked the chamberlain to take the box to Chu Yunyan.

Chu Yunyan took the box and thanked: "Thank you, Queen, for the reward."

Chu Yunyan took the box and returned to her seat. She did not open it and look at it, but quietly waited for the palace banquet to end.
