Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?

Chapter 388 The Stupid Queen 1

At the end of the month and the beginning of the evening, Empress Li Zhao held a grand banquet in the Chongxiao Palace to entertain all her ministers in order to celebrate the victory of Xiao Lie, Marquis of Zhenbei.

In the main hall, there was singing and dancing, and fine wine and delicious food were delivered like a stream.

It's a celebration banquet.

It was also the Hongmen Banquet.

Xiao Lie held military power and had achieved greater success than his master. After three years of intermittent battles, he subdued the northern barbarians and became even more famous. The empress was very wary of him, so she set up the Hongmen Banquet to test him.

In the hall, a beauty was dancing in gauze, twisting her waist in a charming way. She was not wearing boots or socks, her feet were white and plump, and her toes were lightly tapping the ground. Her dance was graceful, and a strange fragrance wafted out.

It was a beautiful painting, and the ministers were fascinated by it. But in the hall, the empress was not interested at all. She only stared at the Marquis of Zhenbei who was sitting at the seat below. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at him blatantly.

[Host! The transmission was wrong!] 250 looked at the somewhat confusing spatial data and let out a loud roar.

Someone tampered with his data!

The corners of the empress' mouth twitched, and her head ached: "I know, stop arguing."

The empress is Hua Xia.

The data originally transmitted by the system should be that of a minister's daughter. In short, the identity could be anyone, but it could never be the empress. Xiao Lie is a villain and has an irreconcilable feud with the empress. It would be better to wait for Xiao Lie to kill her.

Li Zhao favored eunuchs and appointed treacherous officials, which led to the eunuchs' enormous power. The head of the eunuchs, Gao Huang, the governor of the Eastern Depot, was known as the "Nine Thousand Year Old Man". He was truly second to none and above ten thousand people. Over time, his people among the court officials were promoted, while others were suppressed, and thus his power became even greater.

The Xiao family suffered a disaster and Xiao Lie's father Xiao Qi died in battle. Gao Huang was involved in all of this, and naturally Li Zhao was also involved.

250 After calming down, it is not difficult to guess that it is the Lord God's sinister intention. He dare not say it openly for fear that he will be destroyed before he returns.

Hua Xia looked at Xiao Lie. From the beginning of the banquet till now, he had not touched any of the wine and food in the palace. When ministers came to toast him, Xiao Lie only touched the cup lightly and did not drink any. He was very cautious.

In the hall, after Meiji finished her dance, she held the white porcelain cup in her bright red lips and seductively presented it to Xiao Lie. The beauty prostrated herself on the ground, looking around, very alluring.

The ministers beside him were very envious: "Your Majesty is so lucky that His Majesty has bestowed upon you such a beauty. You are really the envy of others, the envy of others!"

Hua Xia: “…”

My goodness, Xiao Lie returned victoriously after five years of fighting, but instead of being granted a title, he was given a beauty first. How...

Xiao Lie did not refuse the beauty's offer. He took the wine glass with the bright red lipstick on it, but did not drink it. He put it beside him.

At this time, another sight came from the left, a tall man with a face as white as if he had applied white powder stood up and said: "The beauty holds a glass of wine to the hero, Your Majesty, why don't you drink a cup with the marquis and the ministers."

Hua Xia didn't even bother to look at this fake eunuch. The person who spoke was Gao Huang, the male protagonist of the plane. How could the male protagonist be a real eunuch?

He is still nine thousand years old, Hua Xia wants to help him now.

The ministers even stood up in their seats, but Hua Xia remained motionless, exuding a cold aura that frightened the ministers for a moment, but in a moment, that frightening feeling suddenly disappeared.

She leaned back, her posture lazy, her fingertips tapping on the sandalwood square table, and said in a leisurely tone: "Seeing that Eunuch Gao likes the beauty so much, why not let the beauty bring you another drink?"

Everyone was stunned. The empress gave an order, and the dancer did not dare to disobey the imperial decree and brought a cup to Gao Huang.

However, the difference is that the cup sent to Xiao Lie contained the deadly Gelsemium elegans, while the one given to Gao Huang was non-toxic.

Gao Huang frowned slightly, and felt that the empress seemed to have become a different person. He was a little confused and after drinking the wine, he said nothing.

The banquet became lively again with the music. The host of the celebration banquet was Xiao Lie. Many people came to toast him. It was unknown which eunuch replaced his original cup, leaving only the cup of Goutian. Xiao Lie was not stupid, so how could he be fooled easily? Hua Xia sat on a high seat, fiddling with the colored glass on the table out of boredom.

After a while, a man was called over and was ordered to leave.

Xiao Lie took in this scene. He lowered his eyes slightly to hide the cold light in his eyes. The kiss was not enough. He wondered what tricks this empress would play next.

But in a moment, the cups in front of Xiao Lie were taken away, including the cup of Gelsemium elegans, and replaced with a new set. The colored crystal was transparent and beautiful, and the size was not small. It was the emperor's personal item.

Xiao Lie frowned slightly, refilled the wine glass, and placed a pot of peach blossom wine beside him.

He suddenly raised his eyes to look at the high seat. The empress did not sit like an emperor, but rather like a gangster. One leg was bent on the dragon throne, and her elbow was supported on her knee. She lowered her eyes and swung the same glass cup in her hand with her fingertips. The pink liquid swayed lightly, and she did not care if it spilled on her hands.

It seems like he has no energy and is also sleepy.

Xiao Lie didn't know what she was up to, he just thought that this person was very weird.

Hua Xia was sighing over there, Xiao Lie's deep eyes were filled with murderous intent, all focused on her, it was hard to play...

The dancer was given by the empress, and Xiao Lie was going to take her back after the banquet. After the dance, she was now lying beside him serving him. Hua Xia was thinking about how to get her back. It was impossible for her to really let Xiao Lie take her back. While thinking about it, she looked over there again.

The dancer received her gaze and misunderstood it, so she served Xiao Lie even more attentively, almost pressing her body against him.

Gao Huang on Hua Xia's left gave her an admiring look, while Xiao Lie gave her a hateful and obscure look. Hua Xia choked. What was she looking at? That woman was Gao Huang's woman, okay...

Although it was given by her hand...

We can't put all the blame on her...

Can you please be reasonable?

Xiao Lie accidentally broke a cup, which was the one Hua Xiaxin had sent. The broken pieces were stained with pink peach wine, and the aroma of wine became stronger in the hall. At this time, several palace servants came in from outside, cleaned the floor and replaced the dishes for the banquet with fresh ones.

A humble palace servant walked in with a wooden tray, glanced in Xiao Lie's direction, and then walked straight towards Hua Xia.

Hua Xia's mouth twitched: "..." It was obvious at first glance that this guy had no experience, and his intention to assassinate was too obvious.

As expected, when she got closer to the steps, a palace servant suddenly pulled out a dagger with a cold glow from under a tray and stabbed it straight at her. Hua Xia didn't even look at the man, her eyes fell on Xiao Lie.

The two men looked into each other's eyes, creating a picture of a wise king and virtuous ministers, and of the king and his ministers being of one mind.

She gave him poisoned wine, and he found an assassin...

That's what we were thinking of.

They both want the other to die.
