The king was wrong

"Oh, my lord, you have come, the emperor has been waiting in Fenglai Palace for a long time!"

Seeing Wei Yanxi and Qi Yaoqing coming in from the palace gate from a distance, Ji Hong, the consul and eunuch of the palace, rushed forward with a smile on his face and led them towards Fenglai Palace.

"Humph."

Wei Yanxi glanced at Ji Hong who was smiling all over his face, and snorted disdainfully.On weekdays, he couldn't get used to the hypocritical faces of these eunuchs in the palace, and he didn't know if the emperor's brother would feel uncomfortable being surrounded by these people and serving him every day.

Seeing that King Yong didn't bother to talk to him, Ji Hong didn't move up too much. He smiled embarrassingly and turned his attention to Qi Yaoqing who was one step behind him.

"This must be Concubine Yong, tsk tsk, you are such an excellent Mr. Miao, no wonder the empress praised you like an exile!"

Qi Yaoqing had never met Ji Hong before, and didn't know his identity at all, but judging by his exquisite brocade suit and familiar appearance with Wei Yanxi, he probably had a high status in the palace, and he was someone who could not be easily offended. characters.So even though he was praised in a cloud of mist at the moment, Qi Yaoqing still nodded politely at Jihong, and thanked Jihong with a smile: "Thank you for your praise, father-in-law, but Yaoqing is really ashamed of the word 'banished immortal'." .”

The sound of clear mountain streams and springs echoed in my ears, and it was very comfortable to hear in summer.

Seeing Qi Yaoqing's modesty, Ji Hong didn't make things difficult for him any more. After showing an equally kind smile, he turned around and concentrated on leading the way, but he couldn't help muttering in his heart: This princess looks really a modest gentleman with self-cultivation. The Empress Empress's younger brother is such an outstanding figure, no wonder she dared to recommend it to the Holy Majesty so swearingly before.

Maybe... King Yong is not as bad as he imagined after marrying him.

Sometimes just a word or an action can leave a deep impression on people.Because of Qi Yaoqing's elegance and humility, Ji Hong left a good impression of restraint, gentleness and courtesy, but it was not until many years later that he suddenly understood how much this seemingly casual thank you today would help him in the years to come busy.

Of course, right now Ji Hong is thinking about what Qi Yaoqing is, but he has no energy to pay attention to it at all, because all his attention is focused on Wei Yanxi who is only one step away from him.

I don't know what stimulated Wei Yanxi, since he said a word to Ji Hong, he has been looking at him with a strange look, as if he wants to see a flower in him.

Qi Yaoqing frowned calmly. It would be fine if Wei Yanxi was looking at him secretly, but his eyes were undisguised, just staring at him like this, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.

"My lord, what's wrong with this subject...?"

Seeing that Fenglai Palace was close at hand, but Wei Yanxi's eyes were still fixed on her body, showing no sign of shifting, Qi Yaoqing finally couldn't help asking.

"Huh? Ah, no, no..."

Wei Yanxi was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head immediately, barely looking away, feeling extremely annoyed.As the most honorable prince of the Lan Dynasty, Wei Yanxi holds the military power and is famous far and wide. Now, it is just a somewhat similar face that makes him lose his soul. The self-control and calmness that he was proud of before are gone. Where did you go!

But then again, I don't know if it was an illusion, but just now he saw a trace of familiarity in Qi Yaoqing's smile.

That was the warm smile that only belonged to Little Seven in my memory...

Wei Yanxi felt that since seeing Qi Yaoqing's face, he had fallen into a boundless demon. It was just a somewhat similar face, but he couldn't help but want to look at him, look at him, and even want to go to He took his hand, took him into his arms, and whispered in his ear the deep-seated thoughts of the past ten years.

But he is clearly not her!

Wei Yanxi told herself repeatedly that he was not her.This person is Qi Yaoqing, the second son of Duke Sheng's mansion, the queen's younger brother, and he is not the little seven sister in his memory at all.His little seven sister is gentle and kind, wearing a crimson dress can vividly depict her beauty, so that he can never forget her for nearly ten years just by looking at her, how can this man in front of him be comparable?

That was the most perfect little sister Qi in his memory, how could it be the same as the cheap princess that the emperor brother forced him to marry in front of him!

It's just similar, similar... that's all.

"After returning home tomorrow, find a free day and let's go to your uncle's house."

Wei Yanxi settled down, forced herself to look away, put away all the tenderness in her heart.When he finally regained his previous aloofness, he stopped looking at Qi Yaoqing, said something in a cold voice, and stepped into the gate of Fenglai Palace first.

Qi Yaoqing looked helplessly at His Royal Highness King Yong, who was still somewhat popular before, and instantly regained his usual coffin face, and he didn't know what to feel in his heart.He sighed deeply, answered "I understand" and followed quickly.No matter what Wei Yanxi wants to do, seeing the emperor cannot be ambiguous.

"The younger brother has met the emperor's brother and his sister-in-law."

"The minister Qi Yaoqing kowtowed to the emperor and the empress, long live my emperor, long live, long live, empress, thousand years old."

see?This is the difference between people.Wei Yanxi only needs to bow his head slightly and say a short greeting, but Qi Yaoqing has to lift his robe and kneel on the ground, bow respectfully and then say a long series of greetings, and then maintain this posture and kneel just to wait for the emperor to say hello "flat body".

"My family doesn't need to be too polite, just get flat."

Wei Chengtian didn't make Qi Yaoqing kneel too much, and raised his hand kindly, signaling him to get up.

But Qi Yaoqing didn't dare to lose his courtesy just because of the emperor's kind treatment, he politely replied "Thank you, your majesty", and then slowly stood up.

"Hehe, you are indeed a handsome and gentle handsome man, no wonder the queen and I have praised you so many times." After Qi Yaoqing stood still, Wei Chengtian saw his face clearly, raised his eyebrows, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"I don't dare to be a minister. It's the emperor who praised me." Qi Yaoqing accepted the emperor's praise without being surprised, and then bowed to the queen sitting next to Wei Chengtian: "I also thank the queen for her appreciation."

Qi Songjin was a well-known beauty in the capital before entering the palace, but now she is only 26, and has been well maintained, so her appearance does not look old.Not only that, she has both the delicacy of a young woman and the charm of an older woman, and she is very pleasing to the eye if one looks at her appearance alone regardless of her heart.

Right now, when Qi Songjin heard Qi Yaoqing thank him, he got up with a smile and walked towards him.

"Brother, what are you talking about? What's the point of being polite with Elder Sister? Your kindness is obvious to all. Elder Sister just added a few words in front of the emperor."

Speaking of this, the empress suddenly paused, looked back at Wei Chengtian, who was still sitting high in the hall, and asked half coquettishly and half angrily: "The emperor thinks that the ministers and concubines are meddling in their own business, so he insisted on putting his younger brother in front of him." To be a concubine for King Yong?"

Hearing what she said, Wei Chengtian would not understand what she meant, but he just wanted to use himself to suppress Wei Yanxi.Such a simple little thing, even if it goes according to her wishes, so what?

He smiled indulgently, and replied: "The queen is so kind, how can I blame you? You are willing to give up your love and marry your younger brother to my younger brother, and it is too late for me to be happy."

Wei Chengtian's words reached Qi Songjin's heart, and she smiled shyly and contentedly, half of her face blushed suddenly, this young girl's posture was very beautiful against the backdrop of the golden phoenix embroidered dress.

"Your majesty can understand the painstaking efforts of the concubine, and the concubine is really worth everything! It's a pity..." She changed the subject and looked at Wei Yanxi apologetically, "Oh, it's a pity to see King Yong like this. I am very dissatisfied with the concubine's self-assertion. I wonder if it is because I don't like Yaoqing, and I blame the concubine in my heart."

She said she was wronged, her brows were deeply furrowed, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her beautiful almond eyes seemed to be about to overflow with tears in the next moment.

She is obviously a unparalleled beauty, and even a slight frown can make many men feel sorry for her, but Qi Songjin's pretentious appearance only leaves disgust in Wei Yanxi's eyes.Wei Yanxi really couldn't understand, where did this poison queen have so many grievances to pretend to be!

He turned his head slightly in disgust, glanced at Qi Yaoqing from the corner of his eye, and saw that although he didn't show it obviously, he also lowered his eyes, and even frowned slightly inadvertently.

Since entering the gate of Fenglai Palace, Qi Yaoqing has been very silent, indifferent to everything, even the empress, the eldest sister, refused to give any more face, and seemed to be very alienated from this elder sister.

Thinking of this, Wei Yanxi suddenly felt much better.

"Emperor's sister-in-law was joking, how could such a good concubine, the king, not like it?"

The corner of Wei Yanxi's mouth twitched into a faint smile, his eyebrows raised, and the next moment, he suddenly made a movement that shocked everyone.

He bypassed the queen standing in front of him, walked straight to Qi Yaoqing who was standing quietly not far away, then grabbed Qi Yaoqing's shoulders under everyone's suspicious eyes, and brought him into his arms.

"The concubine is beautiful, she is very intelligent, and she is very suitable for the king. It is too late for the king to love him, so how can he blame the emperor's wife? Well, to put it this way, the emperor's wife has worked hard to facilitate such a good marriage for the king. , I should thank you very much!"

As soon as this remark was made, no one responded for a long time. Wei Yanxi managed to see the cracks on Qi Songjin's delicate and beautiful face.

Qi Songjin stared blankly at Wei Yanxi for a long time, as if he was confirming whether this person was still that arrogant and mighty King Yong.In her perception, it was a miracle that Wei Yanxi could agree to marry Qi Yaoqing into the family with Wei Yanxi's temperament. What does he mean by saying this now?Could it be that his unlucky younger brother really fell in love with him?

how can that be!

Here Qi Songjin was dizzy and couldn't believe it, while Wei Chengtian was no less surprised than her over there, wondering if marrying a princess could make Wei Yanxi change his personality?It's just because he and Wei Yanxi grew up together, they have an unusual relationship, and he knows how this younger brother behaves, so he knows that Wei Yanxi's words can't be from the heart.

"Haha, as long as you like it, as long as you like it! It's not in vain that Brother Huang has overcome all difficulties to propose marriage to you."

After all, as an emperor, how can Wei Chengtian's calmness and alertness be comparable to ordinary people?He quickly adjusted his mentality, and said according to Wei Yanxi's words: "You are a rare talent. His sister-in-law said that he was smarter than ordinary people since he was a child. He entered the school at the age of five and studied under Dong Fangzhou, a well-known university scholar in Kyoto. name."

"Oh? I don't know that the princess has such a great ability?" Wei Yanxi didn't rush to respond when he heard his brother praise his princess, but took Qi Yaoqing, who was stiff all over, into his arms again, and whispered in his ear Asked in a low voice.

Qi Yaoqing frowned uncontrollably upon hearing the words.He really doesn't know what's wrong with Wei Yanxi, he didn't even want to look at him during the big wedding last night, why is he showing such an intimate attitude now.Is it just for the emperor and queen to see?
