A cold dream is not a dream come true

It is said that every year on the second day of February, there will be a royal banquet of picking vegetables in the palace.First, the vermilion dendrobium was prepared in the inner garden, and Luobo was placed underneath to make a small roll. The name of the dish was written on the roll, and it was tied with red silk. Some rare lettuce, shepherd's flower, or fresh fish were planted on it.The royal family and the nobles are rewarding and entertaining at the banquet. From the middle hall to the second, each picks it with a golden grate...

So, on the second day of February this year, at dawn, I dressed up and went to the palace with Prince Xi for the banquet.

This time, the number of people who came to the Royal Banquet of Picking Vegetables was obviously more than that of the family banquet during the Spring Festival.Since entering the palace, I have met many unfamiliar faces. Prince Xi is a prince, so there will be people greeting you wherever you go. I followed Prince Xi carefully. Only Prince Xi introduced me to each other. I dared to go forward and salute only when I was in trouble, and I didn't dare to act without authorization at other times.

Stop and go all the way, finally came to the palace hall.The hall was even more crowded and lively.While saying hello to the old man, Prince Xi protected me and brought me to the empress.

At this time, the empress was holding a wine glass and talking with several ministers, looking a little happy.Seeing Prince Xi walking towards her, she dismissed the minister.

"The imperial sister is auspicious, and my sister greets the imperial sister." Prince Xi bent down and bowed.

I also imitated Prince Xi and saluted, and said, "Little girl, pay your respects to Sister Huang."

"Oh, please get up, Prince Xi." The empress nodded with a smile, and helped Prince Xi up.Then she looked at me again and helped me up.

"You are now Prince Xi's concubine, and you should call yourself a 'concubine'." The empress said to me with a smile.

"Call yourself 'Chen Qie'?" I asked with my head tilted.

"Haha! That's right!" The empress laughed and nodded, she slid the hand that supported me to mine, and caressed it as if nothing had happened.

The feeling of being touched by the empress was disgusting, and I immediately withdrew my hand in fright.I cautiously raised my head and glanced at the female emperor, but seeing that the female emperor still did not change her face, there was no embarrassment.

Prince Xi, who was beside me, probably saw this scene, and she immediately stepped forward to smooth things over: "Sister Huang, this is the first time for my wife to participate in such a large imperial banquet, and I may not be used to it, please forgive me, Miss Huang."

The empress didn't say much, she nodded and replied, "It's easy to talk about."

"Then sister is going to visit other adults first." Prince Xi saluted the empress, then took my hand and walked to the side.

After passing a few people, he came to Prince Qian Su Tianyuan and Prince Kang Su Tianzheng.At this time, the two kings of Qiankang were drinking each other, and Su Zimo was sitting at the table frowning and drinking dull wine.

When Prince Gan saw Prince Xi coming over, he put down his wine glass, and Prince Kang immediately turned his head.I took a closer look and found that the two brothers looked very similar in appearance, but this younger brother, Prince Kang, was a bit feminine, not as masculine as his elder brother.

Su Zimo also saw me, and jumped off the table with his glass in hand.

"I have met Prince Qian and Prince Kang." Prince Xi bowed to the two.

I followed suit and bowed.

"Quickly please, why is Seventh Sister so oblivious?" The voice was a little weak, I looked up, and the person who spoke was my younger brother, Prince Kang.

"Mo'er, come and meet your Seventh Auntie." Prince Gan turned to greet Su Zimo.

Su Zimo has been staring at me, probably because she is curious why I appear here.

"I've met Seventh Emperor Aunt." Su Zimo's voice was lazy and extremely reluctant.

Prince Xi didn't care, and nodded to Su Zimo as an answer.

"I haven't been to the mansion for a long time, how are the third brother and the fourth brother?" Su Luobing asked.

When Prince Kang heard this, he looked away and replied vaguely: "Ahahaha, fourth brother and I are okay..."

"Hello...Meng Chuhan..." Su Zimo called me softly from the side. I looked up and found that she was winking at me.

I shook my head slightly, motioning her to keep quiet.

Unexpectedly, not only did Su Zimo not understand what I meant, but he even raised his voice and said, "Come with me..."

Prince Xi was beside me, I glanced at her nervously, then shook my head vigorously at Su Zimo.

Prince Qian probably saw Su Zimo and I's small movements, and cast a reproachful glance at Su Zimo, coughed loudly, then smiled and said to Prince Xi: "Hahaha, look at my eyes, old people just don't care Useful," he said, looked at me and asked, "Seventh Sister brought this for the girl..."

Prince Xi immediately replied: "This is my new concubine, Meng Chuhan."

Su Zimo on the opposite side of me stared wide-eyed, pointed at me and shouted loudly: "What?! Are you the new concubine of Qihuanggu?"

Su Zimo's voice was so loud that as soon as her words came out, the palace suddenly fell silent.

All eyes are on us.To be precise, it focused on me.

Suddenly I feel so embarrassed.

I looked at Su Zimo reproachfully. Su Zimo didn't expect such a thing to happen, so he scratched his head and giggled.

At this time, Prince Xi turned around, clasped his fists with both hands, and said to the people in the hall: "It is a great honor to meet Prince Xi today. I can introduce my new princess to everyone. Please take care of me, my lords."

Only then did the people in the hall react, and after saying a few words of blessing, they got busy with their own affairs again.

Standing beside Prince Xi, I suddenly felt that it was really a kind of happiness to be introduced by Prince Xi like this.

Prince Kang looked at me and smiled, and said to Prince Xi, "Congratulations, Seventh Sister, you must cherish this Princess Xi."

But Su Zimo kept staring at me with wide eyes.

I couldn't say anything, so I stared back.Unexpectedly, Su Zimo said to me: "Meng Chuhan, aren't you a servant of Prince Xi's mansion? Now you fly up the branches and become a phoenix? No wonder I asked you to come to the Prince's mansion as my personal maid a few days ago , you don't agree, so you are waiting for the day when you will be the princess?"

Prince Qian immediately scolded: "Mo'er!"

Su Zimo didn't stop, pointed at me and frowned and said, "I, Su Zimo, can get whatever kind of maid I want. What are you? Who cares?" After finishing speaking, he put down the wine cup and ran away out.

I looked at Prince Xi nervously, and found that she was not angry.

Prince Qian shook his head and said to Prince Xi, "I'm really sorry, Seventh Sister, Mo'er is young and ignorant, causing Princess Xi to be wronged..."

Prince Xi shook his head and responded, "Third brother, it's okay."

Just as I was talking, there was a chuckle behind me, I turned around and saw Prince Cheng whom I hadn't seen for a long time.Prince Cheng strode forward and said to the crowd, "I have seen the third brother, the fourth brother, and the seventh sister."

After several people exchanged greetings, Prince Cheng turned around and smiled at me: "Miss Meng is now Princess Xi? Congratulations!"

I didn't know how to answer, so I echoed: "We are happy together."

Just as I was talking, I caught a glimpse of a petite figure in a purple gauze skirt from the corner of my eye, but it disappeared in a blink of an eye.This figure is very similar to my sister Meng Di. I was about to turn around and chase after me when Prince Xi grabbed my wrist.

"Where are you going?"

"Luo Bing, I seem to have met a relative in Shengle City. I'll come back as soon as I go."

Prince Xi did not object either, and instructed: "Be careful."

I went through the crowd and squeezed outside the hall, and found that there were still so many people outside the hall, but I didn't see any purple clothes.I looked around, then turned a corner, and walked to the pool that I didn't fall into when I entered the palace last time. I wanted to see if there were any clues, but I saw Su Zimo sitting on the ground playing with a straw stick.

Su Zimo looked up at me, frowned and said, "Princess Xi! Why are you here? Aren't you accompanying your Prince Xi?"

Su Zimo's ending sound was very long. I didn't know what she was awkward about. I ignored her emotions and asked her self-consciously, "Did you see a woman in a purple gauze dress come here?"

Su Zimo stood up from the ground, shook his head and said, "Princess Xi, are you dizzy when you are a princess? Will someone come out wearing a gauze skirt in this weather?"

I thought about it carefully, and it was indeed the case. It is still cold in February, and no one would come out wearing gauze skirts.

I must be thinking too much recently, otherwise why do I always have hallucinations?

I shook my head and was about to turn around to leave when Su Zimo stepped forward and grabbed my wrist.

"My lord?" I looked at her suspiciously.

"Why are you with Qi Huanggu?" She lowered her voice and asked hoarsely.

Because I like Prince Hee.

But I didn't say this sentence, I thought about it for a while, and then said slowly: "I have been with her for almost a year."

"What?" Su Zimo asked with wide-eyed eyes, "You were already together when we first met by this pool?"

"Yes."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Did you ask me?" I asked back.

Su Zimo was so angry that he couldn't speak, he shook off my hand.

I rubbed my wrists, frowned and said, "During the Spring Festival family banquet, I sat next to Prince Xi, and I attended as a family member."

Su Zimo shook his head and shouted, "There are also servants sitting beside me! For example, Uncle Eighth Emperor..."

"Prince Cheng has no family, so he brought a housekeeper."

"I don't care, you lied to me anyway!" Su Zimo shouted loudly.

I covered my ears, glanced at her inexplicably, and left here quickly.

What a strange person.

Forget it, dimple didn't find it, so hurry back to Prince Xi's side.

At this time, Prince Xi and the others were still chatting, seeing me come back, Prince Xi asked in a low voice: "How is it?"

I shook my head, indicating that there was no gain.

At this time, Prince Kang looked at me, then at Prince Cheng and asked, "By the way, eighth brother, why don't you see the prince?"

Unexpectedly, when Prince Cheng heard this, he immediately blushed and said with a smile: "Fourth Brother, don't joke, how can Eighth Brother know the Prince's whereabouts?"

Prince Gan also laughed: "The eighth younger brother doesn't even know, so who would know?"

Speaking of which, the two brothers burst out laughing.Prince Cheng's face turned red and he was at a loss.

Just as they were talking, they heard everyone's chatting and laughing voices become quieter, replaced by sighs one after another.

……

"Are they coming?"

"Who?"

"Princess of the Hiwa Kingdom."

"really?"

……

Everyone's eyes focused on the entrance of the main hall, and I followed suit.I saw that at the entrance of the main hall were the prince Su Yu and the princess Murong Ranshu of the Rihe Kingdom. They walked into the main hall one after the other and went straight to the empress.
