Chapter 123 Birthday Banquet (2)

Shen Mingjiao noticed that there was a scorching and malicious gaze staring at her, and turned her head following the gaze.Through the people coming and going, a window was opened, and a man in a purple robe was vaguely seen standing in the window.

She just frowned slightly, then turned her head and left with Cui Lingling indifferently.After all, because of her appearance, she has been used to all kinds of gazes since she was a child.

In a relatively remote palace not far away, the man stared at the slender figure who was getting further and further away.Regretfully looking away.

A bearded follower beside him cautiously advised:
"Master, the king told you before coming..."

The man interrupted him impatiently: "You know, we are a defeated country, and we must endure everything we can, and we must never conflict with the people of Great Xia!"

While speaking, his eyes were violent and vicious, and he lifted his foot and kicked down one side of the table and chair:
"Be patient, big brother is useless, the relationship between the two countries has become like this, why bother pretending to be a grandson here!"

The entourage seemed to be used to it long ago, but they just closed the doors and windows tightly.

The man smashed it, and the tone in his heart was finally smooth.The horrifying glimpse just now could not help appearing in my mind,
He is Cheng Geer, the second prince of Beidi, who is different from the generally dark and rough appearance of the grassland tribes.His mother is a princess of the Great Xia Kingdom, so his appearance is more Han Chinese, but his facial features are deeper.

He took out a piece of paper from his purse, on which it was written, "King Su's wife is a stunning beauty in the world."

This was found in his room when he first entered the post house.

Thinking of something, his eyes turned scarlet, and the blood in his body seemed to be roaring with excitement.

He doesn't care if someone did it on purpose, he only knows that if there is no Feng Lisheng, how could their grassland tribe be reduced to such a state!

……

Shen Mingjiao and the two wandered around the palace for a while, and the palace banquet was finally about to begin.

All the female relatives followed the guidance of the maids to the large banquet hall arranged in the front palace.

Except for the two emperors and empresses, the rest are men and women sitting separately.It wasn't until everyone was present that Jing and Di came out with the Queen at the finale.

After everyone stopped saluting, Jing and Emperor made an emotional and majestic opening speech according to the procedure, and then announced that the envoys from various countries came to the hall to have an audience.

Rao Shen Mingjiao felt that she had seen many good things, and she was shocked by these rare treasures brought up in front of her eyes.

There are eight-foot-high red corals, beautiful flowers that have never been seen before, and exquisite mechanisms that make a picture. The most fascinating thing for her is the two pairs of peacocks that Dawa Kingdom paid tribute to.

When the screen is opened, the gorgeous feathers spread out, which is indescribably stunning.

Shen Mingjiao reluctantly looked at the cage being carried down by the workers.

He was thinking about the possibility of brazenly asking the emperor's wife for a couple after the banquet was over.

At this time, it was the turn of the envoys of Gaochang Kingdom to have an audience, and the envoys of Gaochang Kingdom performed their own national etiquette with Chao Jing and the emperor.Said in broken Chinese:

"Dear His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom, this time we came to Great Xia, and we brought the most noble and beautiful princess Xiyue of my Gaochang Kingdom. The princess loved Han culture since she was a child, and specially practiced a dance with great pains, intending to dedicate it to His Majesty the Emperor. I wonder what His Majesty the Emperor thinks?"

When everyone heard it, it was planned to send the princess to marry.

Jing and Di frowned, but since people came all the way here, it's not easy to refuse in public, no.He waved his hand with the same face to indicate that there was no problem.

The messenger gestured to the outside of the store.Immediately there was rhythmic drumming from the main hall, accompanied by the sound of clang and zither,

The first to enter the stage were four women in plain dance gowns, their veils fluttering in an indescribably elegant way.

The four of them slowly separated with tulle, revealing a graceful woman in a white gauze.With the sound of the drums, the woman lifted her bare hands lightly, her waist flexed and rotated softly,
Some knowledgeable people immediately recognized that she was dancing the Dunhuang Flying Dance.It's not that no one can dance, it's just that some of the dance moves are too difficult, and it's not easy to dance well.

Obviously, the woman danced beautifully on the field, with a slim waist and long legs, and a graceful figure.Her temperament should be charming, but she was dressed in a plain gauze dress, coupled with her demeanor, which added to her the watery gentleness of a Jiangnan woman.

Everyone held their breath unconsciously, and even Jing and Di watched with burning eyes.The only two people on the field who were not attracted were Feng Lisheng and the prince.

The crown prince's heart and eyes were full of Su Qing, Feng Lisheng only took a serious look around at the beginning, and after confirming that he was not doing the assassination in the name of dancing, he withdrew his gaze without much interest, and continued to lower his eyes and feel restless.

Shen Mingjiao couldn't take his eyes off her eyes even more. With the sound of the drums, everyone gradually saw the woman's face clearly. The woman's facial features were exquisite and small, but just looking at them was not so amazing.However, the most prominent thing is a pair of purple eyes.

Shen Mingjiao stared at the woman's eyes for a long time, only felt that there was a special charm, in short, she was very good-looking.

As it got closer, she smelled a very pleasant fragrance.I wondered if this is the self-contained body fragrance written in the scriptures!

The corners of the mouths of several Gaochang Kingdom envoys couldn't help but twitched triumphantly when they saw everyone's reaction.There are two people who know the inside story and have begun to secretly look forward to the scene where brothers and sons fight for Yimei.

As soon as the dance was over, Princess Xiyue bowed down, her voice soft and timid: "Xiyue wishes Your Majesty a blessing like the East Sea, and a long life without bounds!"

He speaks Chinese very fluently, obviously practiced on purpose.

Jing and Di smiled and nodded, habitually preparing to ask for a reward.Just listen to the Gaochang envoy on the side saying emotionally:
"To show my respect and submission to Great Xia from Gao Chang, our majesty has decided to dedicate the most beloved Princess Xiyue to His Majesty."

Jing and Di smiled, accepting that it must be impossible, and were about to find a tactful excuse to decline, and glanced up at the prince.With a flash in his eyes, he immediately changed his words, coughed lightly and said:

"I appreciate King Gaochang's kindness, but I'm over forty years old, it's really not good to delay the princess's prime time,"

In the unbelievable eyes of the envoy, Jing and Emperor continued to smile and say:

"I don't think it's better than this. The prince is just young, and the age of the princess is also suitable. If the princess doesn't mind, she can be the prince Liangdi."

After a little regret, the envoy felt that this proposal was not bad. Although he could not enter the emperor's harem, the prince is the future heir. With their princess's appearance and means, maybe he could be a queen in the future?
When the prince heard this, he quickly stood up and waved his hands and said, "Father is joking, my son and minister are already married, how can you wrong the princess to be a concubine?"

Su Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, after what happened last time, it took her several days to coax the prince back.She was really afraid that the prince would take people into the East Palace just to be angry.

Seeing the envoy's eyes widen in disbelief again, the prince glanced at Jing and the emperor, and felt that although the father was dishonest, he could not make things difficult for the mother.So he glanced at the princes sitting on the other side.

"The emperor's uncles are in their prime. If the princess really likes Han culture, why don't you consider the lonely emperor's uncles, so that you don't have to be trapped in the palace, and you can fully appreciate our Daxia culture."

Envoy: "..." Who the hell cares about your Daxia culture!

When the princes heard this, they waved their hands again and again, saying that they were too old to be worthy of the princess.

It was as if what he was facing was not a peerless beauty, but a scourge.

King Yu even shrunk his neck and looked at Princess Yu on the other side of the screen, not to be too obviously afraid of guilt.

Jing and Di coughed lightly, and smiled at the envoy whose eyes were widened to stiff:
"It seems that the princess has no destiny with my Daxia royal family! But it doesn't matter, my Daxia country has a lot of Haoerlang, the princess might as well stay in Beijing for a while, maybe someday this fate will come!"

What else could the envoy say?He could only respond with a stiff face.

He didn't understand why things turned out like this, as soon as the promised princess appeared.Are the princes and princes of the Great Xia Kingdom fascinated?

In their view, with the princess's peerless appearance, even if she can't become a disastrous concubine like Su Daji, she should be like Concubine Xishi Diaochan and Yang Guifei, who will fascinate the king from now on!
But why, the members of the royal family of the Great Xia Kingdom play their cards so unreasonably?
Oh, there is still a normal person, and that is the always lustful King Chu.

When the King of Chu saw Princess Xiyue, he straightened his eyes. After hearing the prince's words, he knelt down first and shouted that he was willing.

It's a pity that Jing and Di seem to think that he doesn't exist at all.Naturally, Gao Changguo didn't want their well-cultivated princess to choose such an idiot.

In fact, all this has to be attributed to the late emperor,
why?Because there are too many beauties in the late emperor's harem!The royal princes who have been used to seeing all kinds of beauties since childhood.I am absolutely tired of beauties.

Not to mention the Dunhuang Feitian Dance, it is the legendary Zhao Feiyan's Drum Dance.It's not like they haven't seen it.

Shen Mingjiao was not surprised by this reversal at all, and continued to stare at Princess Xiyue's eyes with her chin up.

After hearing what Jing and Di said, Princess Xiyue seemed relieved.

Seeing this, Shen Mingjiao only thought that Princess Xiyue was forced to come to Daxia to get married, and even made up countless sadomasochistic stories about childhood sweethearts being forced to separate, and felt more and more sympathy for this beautiful princess.

In the end, Princess Xiyue turned around and walked slowly towards the seat where Nan Bin was.Finally, he stopped in front of Feng Lisheng, his eyes seemed to be soaked with soft spring water, and his voice seemed to be filled with honey:
"His Royal Highness King Su, Xiyue has come all the way just for you."

Shen Mingjiao: "..."

On the side of the female relatives, everyone's eyes turned to Shen Mingjiao, Cui Lingling directly stood up and walked over the crowd to Shen Mingjiao's side.

Feng Lisheng, who was sipping tea with his head down, raised his head and thought to himself, how could he be involved in this!

He lowered his eyes, did not look at the woman in front of him at all, and said lightly:
"The princess doesn't know, this king has already married a wife." It means you stay where you are cool!

Princess Xiyue bit her lips, her eyes became more clear: "It doesn't matter, Xiyue only wants to serve His Highness as a slave, and dare not ask for anything else."

Feng Lisheng frowned impatiently, "There is no shortage of slaves in the palace, and this king will only have a woman, the princess, in this lifetime, do you understand, princess?"

When all the female relatives heard this, they looked at Shen Mingjiao from sympathy and gloating to full of envy.

His Royal Highness Su Wang said such words in public, which is equivalent to a promise that he will never take concubines or accept houses in the future.

When Shen Mingjiao heard these words, her heart beat a little faster for no reason, and the tone of his words was not very solemn, but a little casual, as if it should be the case.

At this moment, Shen Mingjiao only felt that Feng Lisheng's voice was really nice!
It's just that Princess Xiyue in front of her is getting more and more annoying.

Cui Lingling tugged at her sleeve worriedly, "It's okay, Your Highness didn't look at that woman at all."

Shen Mingjiao sighed leisurely: "You're a pretty girl, why can't you just think about being a third child?"

Cui Lingling sneered disdainfully: "Just her? My green tea sister Tong Yuyao looks better than her! Oh, don't be fooled by her eyes, they are actually dyed with potion."

Shen Mingjiao was surprised: "You mean, her purple eyes are fake?"

She remembered the potion that Feng Lisheng used to change the color of his eyes when he was in Luodu.

Cui Lingling nodded: "It's all tricks, and the fragrance on her body, it's the fragrance of enchantment, which is specially used to seduce men."

She took a closer look again and sighed: "This woman is really hardworking! Her figure is actually only average. She should have used Bingjiwan to improve her figure."

Shen Mingjiao: "Is it the musk pill that is said to be used by Zhao Feiyan?"

"It's almost the same, but the Bingji Pill is more powerful. After taking it, ordinary people will experience unbearable pain and will never be pregnant."

The two spoke in a loud voice, and several wives around heard them, and they couldn't help but glance at Princess Xiyue who lowered her head and was weeping slowly.

Princess Xiyue bit her lips in disbelief, she didn't understand how her unfavorable beauty in the past was frustrated after Daxia!
She stared at Feng Lisheng's face obsessively, her voice mournful:

"His Royal Highness Su, have you forgotten? Five years ago at the border gate, you and I lived in the same tent, and you promised me that you would marry me when I grew up,"

As soon as the words fell, the whole hall was in an uproar, and everyone stared at the two with burning eyes.Secretly speculate that this woman is His Royal Highness Su's former good friend!

Shen Mingjiao on the other side of the screen couldn't sit still anymore, stood up with a sullen face, walked around the screen and walked towards Feng Lisheng.

The eyes of all the female relatives were excited immediately, seeing this angry posture, this is the rhythm of tearing up the white lotus!

Just as Feng Lisheng was about to open his mouth to pull him down, when he looked up, he saw his princess walking towards him with an angry face.Then he glanced at the crying woman beside him,

What do you think?The original indifferent eyes suddenly brightened, is the princess jealous?
