Chapter 93 Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet
This scene was inserted into Murong Xun's eyes like a thorn. She hurriedly looked away, but couldn't help looking at the backs of the two leaving. In her opinion, the two are such a good match.
After drinking a sip of tea, Murong Xun was irritable again at the strange eyes cast by Lu Ranzhi. He planned to leave first. Before he could say anything, he heard that Lu Ranzhi said, "That woman is the princess of the Yue Kingdom. The last time the King of Qin destroyed Hu Yue, it was the help of the Yue Kingdom. This time the Yue family also made friends with Daxiang. The meaning is to send this little princess to come, which is also to marry Daxiang!" With that, he took a meaningful look at Murong Xun.
What he said is naturally unknown to Murong Xun, and listening to the meaning of what he said, it seems that the candidate for marriage in this Yue's country is Zhao Ling!
Somehow, Murong Xun felt uncomfortable.
Lu Ranzhi took a look at Murong Xun and said, "I also heard the princess mention it. Why didn't the King of Qin tell you about this?"
Murong Xun shook his head. He didn't know whether Lu Ranzhi's eyes were sarcastic or worried. He just smiled faintly and said, "I believe him!"
Lu Ran was stunned. His eyes seemed to darken, and he smiled and said, "This is the best!"
The two talked a few more words, and Murong Xun had no intention. After saying goodbye to Lu Ranzhi, he went back to his house.
When he went back, Zhao Ling did not come back. He thought he was leading the little princess into the palace to see Zhao Che. Murong Xun was not energetic, as if he was missing something, but he didn't know what was missing.
I heard from Yan Yu that Zhao Ling came back very late and went out again early the next morning, and the same was true the next day. Murong Xun didn't say anything, but she could still see that she still cared about it, so Yan Yu and Ying Ge were also careful to serve her.
In the end, Yan Yu couldn't help it. She looked at Murong Xun and asked tentatively, "The prince and the two of them are inseparable from the little princess for a moment. Does the young lady mind at all?"
Murong Xun glanced at her and didn't answer. The air contains the coolness of autumn, which shallowly penetrates into the skin.
"The maidservant thinks that there is still a young lady in the prince's heart, but the young lady doesn't say anything. Since the young lady doesn't say anything, how should the prince guess? Miss, feelings are not hide-and-seek. If Miss also has the words of the King of Qin in her heart, why don't you make it clear to the King of Qin?
Murong Xun's heart moved slightly. On the one hand, it was soft at the touch, and on the other hand, it was the bottomless abyss of revenge. How could she not suffer?
She was determined to walk on the same road, but there were so many ** on the road that she gradually almost forgot her original intention. That's how she is. She will gradually lose her direction, and in the end, it is not easy to figure out what she wants in her heart.
What exactly does she want!
She doesn't know either!
Until the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, tonight was the day when people from the clan gathered to enjoy the moon building. Naturally, Murong Xun also wanted to participate, but he did not expect that Zhao Ling would go to Zijin Palace first, but asked Zhao Hui to pick up Murong Xun into the palace.
In this regard, although Murong Xun's face reacted faintly, his heart was inevitably frustrated. Yan Yu beside him was a little angry. He looked at Zhao Hui and asked, "Where's the prince!"
Zhao Hui said, "The little princess of the Yue Kingdom is entangled with the prince. He has been traveling in Chang'an these days. Today, he was also pulled away. The prince couldn't get rid of himself for a moment, and he just ordered him to pick up the princess. The prince said that he would meet with the princess in Zijin Palace!"
After Murong Xun answered, he got into the carriage.
The rules in the palace are strict, and Yingge Yanyu and Zhao Hui are not allowed to enter. Outside the palace gate, Murong Xun was taken in by a father-in-law.
After walking for a while, the little eunuch took Murong Xun to a courtyard not far from the Moon Appreciation Building, saying that all the women were temporarily resting here. Only after His Majesty Yu was summoned, he entered the Moon Appreciation Building.
This is the first time that Murong Xun has stepped into the Zijin Palace after eight years. The Zijin Palace has not changed, just like the luxury and splendor of yesterday, showing the unattainability of imperial power.
Murong Xun couldn't help remember that nine years ago, she first stepped into the Zijin Palace. At that time, she had the longing to enjoy the beautiful scenery with Zhao Che, and the pride of being the queen's mother. Today, her mood has completely changed.
Entering the courtyard hall, there were already several noble ladies sitting in it. The highest grade was Princess Qi Huangfu Yuhua. Today, she was wearing a light yellow gown, dignified and beautiful. She thought that because she was pregnant, she was a little plump. Looking at Murong Xun's figure, she got up to meet her and grabbed Murong Xun and said. He said, "You're here!"
She looked at Murong Xun with gentle eyes and a little worried, and asked, "Is your injury better?"
I don't know how many times Murong Xun answered this question. He sighed slightly in his heart and felt the strong power of public opinion again. He whispered, "It's nothing serious. It's almost better!"
Huangfu Yuhua nodded and pulled Murong Xun to sit next to her.
Murong Xun looked at it. The women in this room were almost all members of the royal family, and there were few ministers' family members. He vaguely thought that it was different from previous years.
After chatting with the woman in this room, I don't know who said, "Have you heard about it? Princess Zhao Qi seems to be back!"
As soon as this said, the room suddenly became quiet. Several people who knew the inside story raised their eyes and secretly looked at Murong Xun. Even Huangfu Yuhua beside them looked at her with a sad face. Seeing that Murong Xun's face was not different, they unconsciously said in their hearts, did she not know what happened to Princess Zhao Qi!
One person said, "This is not good. You can't call her princess at this time. It's different from the past. She is now after a country!"
Although Murong Xun didn't respond, his heart was not so calm. Zhao Qi came back? However, I was a little curious about the princess. Chen Yu was somewhat similar to her, and she could treat Zhao Ling differently. What about her?
These upper-class ladies have a boring and tight life. Tonight, not only will Zhao Qi return from Yan to visit their relatives, but also the little princess of the Yue Kingdom, and this calm princess, I don't know if there will be a good show? Thinking of this, I'm looking forward to tonight's banquet.
After about half an hour, a group of women in a small eunuch Xuan's house came to the moon appreciation building. Murong Xun and Huangfu Yuhua took the lead in front, and the rest of them came out in turn and entered the moon appreciation building.
Zhao Che, the empress dowager and several empresses have not arrived yet. Naturally, there is no one in the upper seat, but the bottom is full of people. As soon as they arrived at the moon-appreciating building, the women behind them looked for their men or fathers, and Murong Xun glanced at him and did not find Zhao Ling's figure. He was stunned for a moment, and there was a little more doubt in his heart. The little eunuch waiting beside him was good at observing words and colors, and immediately led Murong Xun to the position where she should sit, but she was a little embarrassed.
After a while, I heard a spies' voice and shouted, "The emperor is here, the empress dowager is here, the queen swallow is here, and the noble concubine is here!"
Everyone immediately got up and knelt down to meet. Murong Xun quietly raised his head and took a look. Zhao Ling came out with Zhao Che. Murong Xun was inexplicably relieved. It turned out that he was pulled by Zhao Che, but suddenly he was stunned again. Next to Zhao Ling stood the little princess of the Yue Kingdom. She changed into Daxiang's clothes, but her style But it was still the same, looking at Zhao Ling with a smile. Murong Xun turned his eyes to the beautiful woman holding the Empress Dowager again. He thought that this person was Zhao Qi. Now it seems that the sinking fish is really five points similar to this Zhao Qi. Although the beauty is not the same, Zhao Qi's temperament and calmness are far better than the sinking fish. In this way, it is the difference between clouds and mud. This woman is noble and cold, as if she does not belong to the mortal world.
After Zhao Che asked everyone to get up, Murong Xun quietly returned to the original seat. At this time, Zhao Ling strode towards Murong Xun and sat down beside her. He saw that Murong Xun's face was not very good. He was a little anxious and smiled and said, "Let the princess wait for a long time. I will apologize to you for my husband!"
Murong Xun looked at Zhao Ling faintly and sneered, "How dare I!"
"This is Princess Qin!" I only heard a crisp voice above my head.
Murong Xun looked up and stood in front of him. The little princess of Yue's country was looking at her provocatively. Murong Xun smiled and said, "That's right!"
The little princess smiled and said, "I've been listening to Brother Ling mention you all the way. I've been yearning for it for a long time. It's really beautiful to see you today!"
"My concubine is just the color of willow, which is as good as the princess!" Murong Xun said lightly.
As soon as the little princess talked to Murong Xun, she immediately attracted everyone's attention. Even Zhao Qi, who was on the top, couldn't help looking here.
"Ziling, don't mess around!" After looking at Murong Xun, Zhao Ling scolded the beautiful woman in front of him softly.
Ziling Meimu glanced at Zhao Ling's face, showing a little aggrievedness. She smiled and said, "Princes Qin and I are the same as before. The princess doesn't mind if I sit here!" She grabbed Murong Xun's hand and said with a little coquettishness, "The princess wants to know that in Chang'an City except for Brother Ling, I don't have any acquaintances!"
The temperature of Ziling's hand was very high. When he first came into contact with Murong Xun's hand, Murong Xun's heart was cold, but he said faintly on his face: "When the prince was at the border gate, he was grateful for the princess's kindness and the princess's kindness. At this time, the princess was not familiar with Daxiang, and the prince accompanied him. It's also what he should do to accompany the princess to see Daxiang's local customs! If the princess doesn't dislike it, let's have a table with us!" After saying that, Murong Xun turned his head and looked at Zhao Ling again, "Does the prince have any problem?"
