The abandoned queen is reborn: she makes the prince cry and seizes the throne!

Wu Xian touched her sister's hand and said, "I appreciate your kindness, but you know, this is the banquet I'm hosting today. If anything goes wrong, I can't guarantee you safety."

Wu Ya smiled again, "Don't worry, sister. He Hui will take care of everything. She will never make things difficult for you."

The women over there had already gathered around, "Oh, Miss He's dress is really beautiful. I've seen this material in clothing shops before, it's very expensive. Only General He would love his sister so much."

"My lady, you are joking. In my opinion, the embroidered patterned cape you are wearing is made of rare wild fox fur. It is a rare treasure."

She had already grasped the essence of the official language among these women in the inner court. When a woman speaks, she can maintain the high status of the He family and cut off the thoughts of those scoundrels who want to get close to her, but she can't let others think that you are pretending. The distance should be neither too far nor too close. It takes time to learn to strike a balance between the two.

Sure enough, He Hui recognized the preciousness of the wild fox fur at a glance. Her casual remark really made the lady secretly happy. The other few people who couldn't recognize the quality of the fur, after being enlightened, also surrounded the lady and asked her all kinds of questions.

After finally finding a gap to get out, across the wooden bridge, I saw a young man in a crescent-shaped white lingerie with cloud-embroidered red satin walking towards me from afar. Who else in the whole of Kyoto could be so wanton and ostentatious except Wei Zheng?

He Hui glanced over and was about to say hello when suddenly a light blue figure appeared in her sight. The woman was pretty and wore a light blue cloak. Her jade-like face was as beautiful as any other noble lady from an aristocratic family. She was holding up her skirt and walking towards Wei Zheng step by step.

There is nothing to be taboo about.

He Hui stopped, turned around and pretended to look at the frozen lake.

There were a few people standing next to Wei Zheng, seemingly talking to him. The latter listened incoherently, responding from time to time, but with a look of impatience on their faces.

Just now, his eyes touched He Hui's body that turned away. He could no longer hold back and interrupted the man, "I have something else to do... Excuse me."

He walked away, leaving several people looking at each other in bewilderment. One of them pointed at his back and said, "You said this..."

The person next to him also shook his head. What else could he do? He was born as the son of the Chengyang Marquis's Mansion. It was fine if he was a little arrogant, but if he didn't take him seriously, wouldn't he be losing face?

Wei Zheng was about to go over when he was stopped by a girl in green. The girl spoke in a familiar voice, "Wei Zheng, I heard that you accidentally injured the young master of the palace some time ago. You look so pale. Are you okay?"

After saying that, he was about to reach out to touch him, but Wei Zheng frowned and moved away with some disgust. He said coldly, "This prince is fine."

They passed each other and left, leaving Zhou Yun alone in the awkward situation. The fingers that were stretched out slowly clenched into fists. Zhou Muzhe saw this scene, strolled over, and saw Zhou Yun's face as if a fly had been eaten, and said, "Oh, my dear sister, you know that Wei is arrogant, just wait for marriage and leave the rest to me."

Zhou Yun snorted coldly. Although her Zhou family could not compare to the Chengyang Marquis Mansion, her father was also the Guiyang Marquis, the legitimate daughter of a dignified marquis. How could he look down on her?

He Hui nodded to him secretly from a distance, which was considered a greeting. During the time when Wei Zheng was recovering from his injury, he had been living in her private residence. She was under strict surveillance by her family recently and had not gone out for a long time. She didn't know how the poison in his body was doing now.

I was thinking about finding a time to ask her about it, but then the Empress Dowager arrived first.

The Emperor and Empress Xian were by his side. After two Pan Wang rebellions, the young emperor now looked a little calmer and finally looked like an emperor.

The Queen Mother was supported over and looked fine.

Everyone present knelt and bowed, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, and Concubine Xian, may your Majesty live long and healthy, and may the Empress Dowager live forever and ever!"

The wide sleeves of the robe were lifted up, and the precious clothes were casually piled at the knees. Ning Huaixuan looked around and said lightly, "Everyone, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Everyone looked up, no longer daring to move their gazes around, for fear that they would accidentally violate the royal taboo.

The sharp-eyed people had already noticed the twelve golden hairpins on Concubine Xian's head, and they discussed secretly, "Those twelve golden hairpins are so finely crafted, there is no other pair like them in the entire Dali Dynasty!"

"Such an exquisite headdress was awarded to Empress Xian. It shows how much Empress Xian is favored. When the one from the He family marries into the palace, maybe—"

"Ahem! Madams, please be careful with your words."

Wei Zheng was close enough to hear every word of their gossiping conversation. He looked at He Hui and saw that she was lowering her head with a calm expression. Was she really not worried at all? Or did she also want to marry the emperor?

The guests at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet were all distinguished figures that ordinary people rarely see. But now they were sitting here chatting and laughing, saying flattering words in the officialdom.

"Today is the Royal Grandmother's birthday banquet. To celebrate her birthday, and to celebrate the peace and prosperity in the Dali Dynasty, I would like to offer a toast to you all."

"I am terrified..."

How could anyone dare not drink when the emperor offered a toast? Empress Xian took a sip of the wine with her wide sleeves, then put it down and her eyes fell on He Hui.

Although He Hui's face is not the most beautiful in the world, she has a pretty appearance and is a rare beauty.

If such a person entered the harem, there was no guarantee that she would not take away her favor. Whenever Wu Xian saw He Hui, she would be a little worried.

After three rounds of drinking, the Queen Mother said, "I heard that something happened in Kyoto today. Where is the Marquis of Chengyang?"

"I'm here." Marquis Chengyang stood up from his seat and bowed to the Queen Mother.

"I heard that the son of Chengyang Marquis intends to marry the daughter of Guiyang Marquis. Is this true?"

Marquis Chengyang's mind quickly flashed over what had happened in Kyoto recently, and finally he said cautiously, "Yes, this matter happened. My son has reached the age of aging, and his stepmother wants to find a marriage for him. This little thing has reached the ears of the Queen Mother, and I am really terrified."

"Although I am old, I have sharp ears and eyes. How could I not know what happened in the capital?" The Queen Mother looked at the girls who were like a cluster of flowers below and asked, "Which one is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Guiyang?"

Zhou Yun held back the corners of his lips and pursed them in a very reserved manner.
