No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 67 Gao Yu vs Qi Clan (Part [-])
"You guys came so early." Luo Jun shook his head and leaned on Shen Hongxiu's shoulder.

Shen Hongxiu raised her hand angrily and poked her on the shoulder, "You also said that you went to chase a thief last night and never came back. The next day, the Luo family said that you had contracted a cold, and we were still guessing." Are you injured?"

Luo Junyao stood up straight, turned twice on the spot, and showed them with his upper arms, "I'm fine, what can a little thief do to me? Huihui didn't come today."

Song Xuan said: "She is still young, the Xu family does not have a headed wife, she has never attended this kind of banquet."

Luo Junyao thought about it, this kind of banquet in the palace is actually quite boring, and it doesn't matter if Xu Hui is a child or not.

There was a lot of chaos at the banquet, and if something happened, it would be troublesome.

"Ah Ning hasn't arrived yet."

Liang Shufeng said with a smile: "She followed the eldest princess to the harem to visit the Empress Dowager. I heard that the Empress Dowager is better these two days. I wonder if she will attend tonight's palace banquet."

Speaking of the eldest princess of Changling, Luo Junyao remembered what happened in the princess mansion before.

It's just that after so many days, the Princess Chang's Mansion is still peaceful and peaceful. Could it be that Princess Changling really chose to forgive that concubine Qin?

Luo Junyao felt a little itchy.

"Oh, that Prince Gao Yu is here!" Several girls were sitting on the edge of the white marble railing under the eaves of the main hall, chatting and laughing, and Liang Shufeng, who was facing the steps, said in a deep voice with a slightly changed expression.

Everyone turned their heads together, and sure enough, they saw several men in Gao Yu's costumes coming up.

Shen Hongxiu frowned and said, "Tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, what are they doing here?"

On the contrary, Song Jue said with a smile: "The visitor is a guest, so we can't celebrate the festival and leave the guests in the post house?"

"Who is that person? It looks more powerful than that second prince."

Walking beside the second prince of Gaoyu, He Ruoqiuti, was a very tall young man. He looked like 26, and his skin color was different from the fairness of the Central Plains and the brown color of Gaoyu. It was an intermediate color between the two. , The facial features are deep and three-dimensional.

Compared with He Ruoqiuti who was standing next to him, he was a little more meticulous.

The most striking thing is that his eyes are not Gao Yuren's light brown, but grey-green.The hair color does not seem to be pure black, but a bit dark red, which is very eye-catching under the bright daylight of Yutai Terrace.

Liang Shufeng said: "He is He Ruomuti, the eldest prince of Gaoyu. I heard that his mother is a orchid from the Western Regions, so his skin color and eyes are different from ordinary Gaoyu people."

Luo Junyao whispered: "Much better looking than that second prince."

Everyone turned their heads to look at her. Luo Junyao blinked and said innocently, "I'm not wrong."

"……"really.

The second prince Gao Yu was naturally not ugly, he could even be said to be somewhat handsome.But this eldest prince is too good-looking, making people think that he is not someone who can be found in a place with dangerous mountains and rivers like Gao Yu.

The eldest prince Gao Yu seemed to have noticed that someone was looking at him, and turned his head to look at him.

Luo Junyao happened to meet his gaze, He Ruomuti smiled very friendly, and nodded to Luo Junyao.

But he was quickly pulled away by the impatient He Ruoqiu, leaving only a lot of people around to discuss quietly.

Everyone has a love of beauty, and this great prince Gao Yu is indeed extraordinary, worthy of people's private discussion and evaluation.

As soon as Gao Yuren went to the palace, several foreigners were brought up.

"Are there any other foreigners participating tonight?" Luo Junyao was a little surprised.

Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival for Dasheng people, but not for foreigners.

Not to mention that no one would specially send envoys to participate, but the people who came up at this time seemed to be different from Gao Yuren.

Song Jin sighed, and couldn't help poking her forehead, "What are you studying, you're from the Qi people!"

Hearing this, Luo Jun shook his eyes and stared at the foreigners who came up.

These people were obviously not as confident and relaxed as the previous Gao Yu people, they seemed very cautious and guarded.

The young man Luo Junyao who was walking in the middle of the front had once met the prince named Ji Rong whom she met on the street a few days ago.

At this time, the young man changed into white clothes and wore a gold-woven narrow-sleeved brocade gown of the Qi clan, which made him look even paler and sicker.

Shen Hongxiu said: "That is the proton sent by the Qi tribe to Shangyong? Why does it look like a sick child?"

In the eyes of the people of Dasheng, the Qi people are ferocious and violent, and the image is naturally mostly like this. This young man looks really different.

Song Yu nodded and said: "It should be. Five years ago, the Qi tribe invaded the border city of Dasheng when the first emperor died and the three kings rebelled. Within half a month, they slaughtered the three cities of Danrong, Wulan and Changwu in the northwest of Dasheng. Once, General Luo and the Regent attacked on both sides, and the Qi people were beaten to death, and even the royal court of the Qi people was occupied. Now the Qi people can only retreat into the depths of the vast sea to survive, and offer their hostages for peace. If the fight continues , maybe the family will be wiped out."

Luo Jun frowned and said, "That proton looks like someone from the Central Plains."

There was a moment of silence, and Luo Junyao was a little puzzled, "I...did I ask something wrong?"

Liang Shufeng said: "That's Ji Rong, the ninth prince of the Qi clan. His mother is Mrs. Rong, the most beloved king of the Qi clan, Ji Sui, who is from the Central Plains."

"Central Plains?"

Song Xie also whispered: "Let's just talk about it in private. There are not many people talking about it now, no wonder you don't know about it. More than 30 years ago, Mrs. Rong and the current Princess Mu both called Dongling stunning. It's just that Mrs. Rong's elder brother fought against Gaozu, and formed an alliance with the Qi people at that time and married Mrs. Rong to the king of the Qi tribe. Later, the man committed suicide after defeating the army, and Mrs. Rong stayed in the Qi tribe. Not only the ninth prince is her She also has an eldest son who is the prince of the Qi tribe and the fourth prince. Five years ago, the massacre of the city at the border was done by the fourth prince. Last year, the fourth prince was shot blind by General Luo on the battlefield. One eye, unfortunately let him escape. Originally, the regent asked the Qi tribe to hand over the fourth prince, but for some reason, it was the ninth prince who was sent."

"I heard that the regent had just returned to Beijing, and he had a bad fight with several auxiliary ministers because of this matter."

Luo Junyao thought for a while, then whispered, "Is it possible that someone in the court overstepped the regent and agreed to replace the fourth prince with the ninth prince?"

No one answered, but everyone knew that nine out of ten times that was the case.The fourth prince of the Qi tribe is a well-known fierce general of the Qi tribe, but the ninth prince is a little-known sick man.

Shen Hongxiu frowned and said: "It took the regent and General Luo all these years to drive the Qi people to a desperate situation, and now..." Sooner or later, the Qi people will make a comeback and it will be troublesome.

But now it is impossible for Dasheng to send troops to attack the Qi people again.

Not to mention that it is difficult for the Qi people to retreat into the vast sea and desert to march. After careful calculation, from the last year of Dongling to the present, there has been almost no year without troops in Dasheng for more than 30 years.In the early years, it was internal, and then it was external. Both the common people and the soldiers have long been overwhelmed.

It is precisely because of this that the Regent King and General Luo are trying their best to do their best in one battle, in order to give the world time to recuperate.

Under such circumstances, no one in the ruling and opposition parties will support the proposal of soldiers just because of the proton candidate.

Liang Shufeng shrugged his shoulders and said: "We all understand the truth, how can those important figures in the court not understand?" It's just that what you understand is not as important as your own interests after all.

"His Majesty is here!"

"The Prince Regent is here!"

The shrill voice of the servants in the palace sounded from under the jade terrace, and the people who were talking leisurely in twos and threes immediately stood up straight and turned to the direction of the jade steps, welcoming the arrival of His Majesty the Emperor and the Regent.

Following the steady and orderly footsteps of the two lines of guards, there was silence outside the main hall on the Jade Terrace.

I don't know how long I waited until I saw a tall figure walking up leading a small child.

Xie Yan tonight was different from what Luo Junyao had seen before. He was wearing a black court dress embroidered with gold dragon patterns, and his hair was pulled back with a golden crown.On the high platform, the autumn wind swayed his clothes, as if he was looking down on the world, almost making people breathless.

On the other hand, the little emperor held by him was wearing a dragon robe. Although he tried his best to look serious and dignified, he was too small, and his appearance was exquisite and cute. He looked like a soft and cute little boy. Dolls, people have the urge to squeeze two hands.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Congratulations, His Royal Highness the Regent!"

The people waiting outside the hall greeted him in unison.

After a while, the little emperor's immature voice sounded, "Everyone is flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Then everyone stood up one after another.

Xie Yan held the little emperor with one hand, glanced at the people outside the hall, paused for a moment on Luo Junyao, then quickly moved away, and said in a deep voice, "The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager have not yet arrived, so please do as you please."

"Yes, my lord."

Seeing Xie Yan go in holding the little emperor's hand, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that Xie Yan said it was free, but no one was free.

So everyone turned around and walked into the main hall. After all, His Majesty and the Regent have arrived, and it is inappropriate for them to hang around outside after all.

Luo Junyao couldn't help laughing secretly in his heart, thinking that His Royal Highness the Regent is really a killer of large-scale events.

As long as he appeared, even if he didn't do anything, he could instantly cool down the originally lively scene.

"You're still laughing!" Shen Hongxiu couldn't help but glared at Luo Jun and said in a low voice, "You really aren't afraid at all."

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "What's there to be afraid of? No matter how powerful the regent is, he wouldn't suddenly draw his sword and chop me off."

"..." Several girls gave her the look of "you are too young to understand".

After seeing or hearing about the great achievements of the Regent during the Three Kings Rebellion, it is not a normal person who is not afraid, right?
"……"baffling!
　Today is a peaceful day, tomorrow I will start to make troubles~~~(*￣3)(ε￣*)
