For the luncheon banquet for all the ministers, and the dinner banquet for the emperor's family and internal officials, I'm afraid it will be very late today before I can leave the palace.At noon, the ministers displayed their proud birthday presents. There was a dazzling array of beautiful things, and there were too many of them on the same level of rarity. The queen mother was satisfied with the things everyone presented, but no one could see what she really liked. Yiran thought about the rare treasures that the Empress Dowager had never seen in the palace for a long time. Now that she is old, it might not be these gold, silver, pearls and jade that can really impress her. What she is really looking forward to is only she knows.

After the luncheon, there was a well-arranged entertainment program. The royal family built a platform surrounded by well-shaped buildings. The building corridor was separated by a screen and used as a grandstand. Although each seat is very large, the best viewing seat is naturally only against the guardrail. There are only seats on the side, so there is only one table and two chairs in the seat separated by the screen for two people.

Compared with singing, dancing and opera, the Queen Mother seemed to prefer folk juggling gadgets, so the emperor specially sent people to find the two most famous juggling classes.If it was in the past, Qiao Yiran might still have the slightest interest, but now that he is a martial artist, the difficult moves of juggling are really nothing to watch in his eyes.

How about reading a book and sitting here all afternoon?Qiao Yiran was so bored, he sent the servants out, picked up the teapot and poured tea by himself, Qiao Jin who was sitting opposite him took a look, "It's getting cold, let someone come up to change the tea."

Cang Ye turned his head very actively and shouted: "Come here."

Qiao Yiran put down the teapot, "So, what are you doing at our seats?"

It comes standard with a table and two chairs, but Qiao Yiran and Qiao Jin's seats attracted a few more people. When Cang Ye came, he brought his own chairs, so that's fine with him. Qin Yao and Xiao Pan asked people to add more seats. I bought a table and came to join in the fun with them.

By the way, Xiao Pan is still holding Concubine Xiao's little princess, babbling and waving her little hands.

"Exactly," Cang Ye said to Qin Yao and Xiao Pan, "What are you doing here?"

Qiao Jin didn't give him any face, "Yiran's 'you' also include you, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"The Empress Dowager told the juniors to be more casual, didn't I come to catch up with you?" Cang Ye easily found a reason to prevaricate.

Qin Yao was a little embarrassed, "Before going out, my father told me that I'd better stay with the juniors of the other four great princes." Of course, his father's original words were more than that, and there were more things to say - stay with them, so as not to What trouble have you caused.

Xiao Pan then said: "I saw that you are all here, and I thought there was something wrong, so I came here." He shook the little princess's two white hands, and the little princess laughed.

"Besides," Cang Ye said, "Didn't the two of you also change seats and get together, we're all right?"

The two brothers of the Qiao family coughed dryly. Originally, they were all young women at the table. After discussing, the two brothers switched together. Fortunately, the two girls are both easy to talk and funny. The situation of Qin Yao and Xiao Pan is probably similar. Seeing that the Qiao family brothers were out of their clutches, they simply moved here. Although it is not the best seat to watch the show near the corridor, they are not interested in boring plays anyway.At that time, when someone asked, at worst, the children of the four major princes would pack it up and push it out as an excuse. Anyway, they were not the only ones who did this.

Qiao Jin glanced at Cang Ye, "What about you, did you tell the person at the other table?"

"I've said it." Cang Ye put down his cup, "That girl is likely to become my concubine."

Qiao Jin paused, "...Really."

Cang Ye smiled wryly: "I am different from you. People with high spiritual strength can live at least a hundred years old, but I can probably live at most a hundred years old. Even if no one is fanning the wind, when I reach a certain age, my father will also tell me to live a hundred years old." I married a concubine."

"Then I must congratulate you then."

Qiao Yiran somehow felt that Qiao Jin's tone didn't sound very happy.

"Hey, let's not talk about this today. Come on, brother Ajin, do you know that Ajin liked a girl before, and I thought it must be his wife."

Qiao Jin gritted her teeth: "Your Highness!"

Qiao Yiran was surprised: "It's true, why haven't I seen such a girl." If it was someone Qiao Jin cared about, it's impossible for Qiao Yiran to not have noticed the clue for so long.Given Qiao Jin's character of being nice to others, she would wholeheartedly treat him well. If there was such a girl, Qiao Yiran must have seen her many times. How could she have never heard of it.

Cang Ye was not forced by the evil forces, even though Qiao Jin had pinched him around the waist until he grinned, Cang Ye patted his hands and said, "Really, I'm telling you..."

Qiao Yiran showed full interest in her brother's gossip and listened attentively.

"That's not what I said!" Qiao Jin took a rare heavy breath, "It's just a playmate for a while, she was the niece of a servant from afar, and she came here with no one to take care of her during that time, and she was still young at that time , How could I get confused."

"Oh, look, you've become angry from embarrassment." Cang Ye smiled at Qiao Yiran, "Obviously when I arrived at Qiao's house, I saw you staring at her little sister and couldn't take your eyes off him. Brother Ajin, dare you believe it, this guy just kept silent. Look, I guess [-]% didn't even hold the little hand, which young master is so timid."

Qin Yao, who was forced to hear from the side, thought, I have never touched a girl's little hand.

At that time, Cang Ye could still go out of the palace with others, and he was freer than now. He remembered that little Qiao Jin was smiling, watching a little girl fluttering butterflies in the yard. He probably thought the picture of the little girl fluttering butterflies was very beautiful. But Ye felt that the picture of him standing there quietly was more eye-catching.

Qiao Yiran asked, "What happened next?"

"Later..." Cang Ye laughed rascally: "I don't know either."

"whispering sound--"

How can the half of the story be unappetizing, Cang Ye explained, "I really don't know."

"Don't look at him, he really doesn't know." Qiao Jin looked at the tea leaves floating in the cup, "The little girl went back later, and I heard that when she was 14 years old, she wanted to join relatives and become a servant of our family. I lost track on the way. I only found out when I asked about it by chance, and when I found out...she had been missing for two years."

"Forehead……"

Cang Ye didn't expect the story to end like this, Qiao Yiran glanced at him, Cang Ye apologized angrily: "I'm sorry, I don't know..."

"It's nothing, anyway, it's not bad for you to feel sorry for me."

Cang Ye was embarrassed, and Qiao Yiran was also embarrassed. If he had known earlier, it would be better not to gossip. He said weakly, "Brother...I'm sorry..."

"Yiran is not wrong." Qiao Jin put on a smile: "It was someone who was wrong, right?"

Cang Ye complained with tears in his eyes: "You son of a bitch!"

Qiao Jin: "Huh?"

Cang Ye: "I mean, I was wrong, it's all my fault."

The guards brought by each family cannot hide in the dark or stick to the master as usual. There are palace rules in the palace, and the well-shaped buildings have layers. seats.This is not the best place to watch a play, and of course they are not here to watch a show, as long as the line of sight can catch the owner at any time, it is a good place. Therefore, the guards of the four great princes are crowded in the same place.

The territory designated for the guards is not so refined but more spacious. The four princes are in one place, and they can be divided into four factions clearly. It is not so much the intentional separation, as it is that the atmosphere is so consciously separated.

The guards of the Xiao family were in a mess; the guards of the Qin family were making wild jokes and sneers that couldn't be laughed at; the guards of the Bai family had no communication at all, they stood upright and sat upright, and the surrounding air It's cold; the Qiao family...Although there is almost no communication, it is also rigorous and upright, but there is a group of tricksters, which makes the atmosphere of the guards of the Qiao family completely different from that of the Bai family.

Fudou was playing with an empty cup in his hand. The fox in the guards of Qiao's family, he could confirm at a glance that it was exactly the same as the fox in the Colosseum that burned Qin Yao's iron-clawed lion to ashes, except for the extra The tail, and the rest are the same.Due to the training he received since he was a child, Fudou is not only good at hearing, but also good at eyesight.

I don't know if the tail grew out later, or if it was just two foxes that happened to be similar, but even if he was really the fox that burned the Iron Clawed Lion, Fudou didn't plan to do anything, let alone this The fox still belongs to Qiao's family, so the young master can only mourn for his Iron Claw Wild Lion.

"Hey, Fudouzi, look, there's another beauty here, that one over there, please look good."

"I won't be looking at you." Fudou snorted, and the most eye-catching thing here was the indifferent beauty guard of Qiao's family.When Fudou saw him, he had an idea, there is really someone in this world who can look so good-looking.

"That man is my favorite, that face, that figure, tsk tsk."

The person who was talking to Fudou happened to glance over the system inadvertently, and Fudou immediately understood who he was talking about. The guards of the Qin family made jokes without covering their mouths, but they knew how to measure when talking about outsiders. At least except for the Fudou he just signaled, no one else could tell who he meant to belong to.

"Come on, it's just you," Fudou said unceremoniously, "Your face and figure, no one wants to pay you back."

"Why is it like this," the man howled and wanted to pounce on him, "you don't want to either?"

Fudou smiled and kicked him, not lightly, "No. I'm the young master's bodyguard, and I'm different from you flirtatious bastards."

"You have changed. You used to be crying and clamoring to warm my bed, but you changed your mind in a blink of an eye."

Fudou: "Hehe, if you are capable, come again at night, and I will live in the young master's front wing, waiting for you at any time."

"Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee."

Just listening to the unaffected and even hooligan conversations, others would never have guessed that this group of guards from the Qin family who looked so unscrupulous had all practiced one-hit killing operations since childhood.

The Qin family shared most of the emperor's worries about some shady matters, and if it was inconvenient for the emperor to take action, it was all up to them.The Qin family has cultivated many people who have lived in the dark and practiced killing techniques since they were young. When selecting guards, select some young ones from these people and re-teach the guards what they should learn.

Fudou felt that he was lucky. From the moment Miss Qin brought him up in the killer camp, he felt that he was truly living under the sun. Miss Qin told him that he would aim to become Young Master Qin's personal bodyguard in the future Come and fight, this is different from the previous goal, in the past it was just to kill, but now what he has to learn is to protect.

Although Fudou officially became Qin Yao's guard for a short time, he has already put in years of hard work for it. He originally had a killer code name, Honest General. Although it is a code name, it sounds much cooler than the word Fudou. .

But, he quite liked the name Qin Yao gave him.

The monster fox of the Qiao family did not know what to say, and it amused the guards of the Qiao family almost at the same time. Several guards of the Qin family looked directly at Fudou, and one of them hung on Fudou, muttering: "Douzi, tell me, Qiao family Does choosing a guard still depend on the face, all of them are quite eye-catching when they smile."

Fudou scolded: "Forget it, just sell it to them."

"Do you think I want to strike up a conversation?"

"get out."

No matter how many men and women these handsome guards have attracted, they don't have time to talk about love on such occasions. Everyone's minds are on the masters of each family, and this is what they must protect.

To be honest, Qiao Yiran just felt physically and mentally exhausted after sitting down like this throughout the day, not because of anything else. Firstly, it was boring, and secondly... to add to the fun. About an hour after the performance, many ministers brought their daughters, granddaughters or imperial daughters to find him. They came to their seats and said they came to meet and greet, but in fact everyone knew what their intentions were. Qiao Yiran felt that just keeping smiling would make his face go stiff.

It was a wrong decision for the juniors of the four princes to get together, because the goal was too obvious, and it was very convenient to find someone. Don't worry.

The little princess squeezed Xiao Pan's face, "Jiujiu (uncle), yay, happy..."

Xiao Pan smiled wryly, he was too tired to be happy at all.

Cang Ye poured himself a glass of wine, looked at the seat where the emperor was, "I don't know how many people's daughters will enter the palace, and they are all rushing to send their own girls to the palace, really..."

The corner of Cang Ye's mouth curled into a mocking smile.Three thousand beauties, six palaces of pink and daisy, the resplendent imperial palace, looks like a fairyland on earth, but he knows that this is just a luxurious cage, he locks people's hearts and locks time and life, if he has daughters, he will never give them away Send it to this place where countless young girls are buried.

The emperor still looks very energetic and mighty, but even if he is very old, there are probably many people who are willing to send young girls to him.

Cang Ye is already like an ordinary person, wearing cold clothes, holding a wine glass in his hand, with an indescribably lonely look in his eyes, after a while he said: "A Jin, stay with me in the palace today Well, we haven't talked for a long time, you go and act coquettishly with the queen mother, she will agree."

Qiao Jin said angrily, "Why don't you go?"

"Me? Oh, I'm already past the age of acting like a baby. Oh, I'm getting old."

Qiao Jin was silent for a while: "...I will talk to my father after the dinner."

"Hey, Ah Jin is the best, come and give me a hug."

"Be cautious in your words and deeds, Your Royal Highness!"

Qin Yao observed for a long time, and finally haha ​​said to Xiao Pan who was sitting opposite: "The relationship between His Royal Highness and the young master of the Qiao family is very good?"

Xiao Pan gave him a strange look, "It's not the first time I've seen you."

Except for Qiao Yiran and the others, who saw each other for the first time this year, the people here are very familiar with each other. The queen mother's birthday banquet, the emperor's birthday banquet, and large-scale celebration banquets are all like this, so it's not surprising.

Qin Yao got bored and muttered in a low voice, "But I always feel, um... feels better?"

Xiao Pan was teasing his little niece, the little princess seemed to be tired, blinking her eyes and going to sleep, he changed into a comfortable position to hug her, he also heard Qin Yao's muttering.

"I'm not familiar with it on weekdays, so I don't know. If you want to know, you can ask."

"Forget it." Qin Yao will tie his hands and feet when he gets involved with the royal family, it's better not to provoke him, so as not to cause any trouble, and he can't afford to go around.
