The warm sunset made Feng Qingchen's figure long, and those charming eyes cast a large shadow under the dark color that Shen Yunxi could not see.

Shen Yunxi stopped suddenly, stood where she was, watching him walking towards her step by step.

Seeing that the people behind him didn't keep up, Xiao Yihan became suspicious, turned his head and saw her standing there, looking straight ahead, he looked over and saw Feng Qingchen walking towards them.

Thinking of her words 'this is not what I want', Xiao Yihan couldn't help but feel uneasy for Shen Yunxi, if Feng Qingchen heard these words, I'm afraid there would be no peace again.

Feng Qingchen stood still in front of Shen Yunxi, he didn't say a word, just stood like this, the shadow cast down, there was a sense of oppression that was a little hard to resist.

Shen Yunxi sighed secretly, and asked softly: "Is everything finished?"

"En." Feng Qingchen only hummed lightly, without too many words.There were no emotional fluctuations in his dark eyes, and even his tone was flat as usual.

Then, he turned around, looked at Xiao Yihan, and asked in a low voice: "Are Han and Wangfei old acquaintances?"

"I've met twice before outside the palace, so I'm not familiar with it." Xiao Yihan nodded, and answered in a non-essential way.

"Really?" Feng Qingchen glanced at Shen Yunxi, and replied coldly, but Shen Yunxi felt that his words were a bit yin and yang, and the chill permeated people.

The corners of Xiao Yihan's lips curled slightly, and he nodded.The next moment, when he thought of something, he smiled and said to Feng Qingchen: "Chen, you didn't come to the mansion to congratulate your wedding for a few days after returning to Beijing, you don't blame me, do you?"

"No." His tone was neither salty nor weak, and no one could hear the slightest emotion.

Then, she turned to Shen Yunxi and said, "Let's go. The dinner party is about to begin." After finishing speaking, he walked forward and took her hand and walked forward.Be intimate.

Xiao Yihan turned around, looked at their figures, looked at their hands holding each other, thinking about what she said before, he couldn't help frowning slightly, but he still couldn't figure it out.

Shaking his head helplessly, maybe he was too caring, then raised his feet and quickly chased after them.

Shen Yunxi let Feng Qingchen hold his hand without struggling.No struggle, just because this is in the palace, a little struggle is just to attract the attention of passers-by.So, it's better to let him hold it like this.His gaze was fixed on their intertwined hands.

This is the second time he has held her hand.

It's so confusing, it seems that their relationship is so close, but can they really go on like this?

However, his palm was still slightly cold and could not feel warmth.

Her heart cannot be settled.

Anxiety surged in my heart, I raised my head and looked at him. His profile was resolute and tight, and there seemed to be a faint cold aura entrenched around him, which made people feel a little suffocated.

However, she just looked at him like this, and after all, she didn't say a word, walking into Yongning Hall, both of them were silent.

In the Yongning Hall, the princes, concubines and ministers were sitting in their seats, whispering to the neighbors from time to time.

As soon as Feng Qingchen and the others walked to their seats, Su Lianrong and Ling Shuiyao walked in, their eyes fell on Shen Yunxi, and they cast a cold glance, Shen Yunxi withdrew his gaze indistinctly, as if he hadn't seen her Usually, she turned her head and smiled at Feng Qingchen before sitting down.

Su Lianrong stared at Shen Yunxi tremblingly with anger, the anger in her eyes seemed to burn her.Immediately, as if thinking of something, his eyes flashed, his eyes were full of cunning, he turned his head slightly, and said to Ling Shuiyao: "Go and sit down."

Ling Shuiyao hummed softly, and sat down on the seat under the guidance of the maid.

Feng Qingchen sipped tea, glanced at Su Lianrong at the other end, put down the teacup lightly, and said, "When did you become enmity with Su Jieyu?"

Shen Yunxi was playing with the teacup on the table with lowered eyebrows, when she heard Feng Qingchen's words, she was startled, and it took a while to realize that he was asking her.

As expected of the God of War of the Tianqi Dynasty, she saw the grievances between them clearly with just one glance, then Shen Yunxi sighed, still playing with the teacup with her fingers, she said: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that they are in the back garden. Su Jieyu just misunderstood me at the time."

"Really?" Feng Qingchen replied indifferently, as if what he said just now was just a random question from him, and she didn't need to answer it.

Shen Yunxi turned her head, his indifferent expression showed no emotion at all, she lowered her eyes and smiled slightly, with a wry smile.She thought he was caring about her, but it turned out that she was just thinking too much.

However, his hot and cold attitude really confused her, Shen Yunxi thought to himself, maybe it is necessary to sit down with him and have a good talk.

Just thinking about this, the eunuch announced loudly from outside: "The emperor is here! The empress dowager is here!"

Shen Yunxi hurriedly got up, and together with other concubines and princes in the palace, greeted the emperor and empress dowager.

"Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet. All the relatives don't need to present such a big gift. Get up!" Feng Linye helped the Empress Dowager into the hall, looked down at the people in the hall, and said in a deep voice.The empress dowager standing beside him had kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and was dressed in gorgeous clothes, so noble.

Everyone shouted gratitude again before standing up.

With the support of the emperor, the empress dowager walked up the steps steadily, reached the highest point, turned around and stood up, and everyone knelt down again, shouting: "I wish the empress dowager a happy life and a healthy life, long live forever!"

"Okay, okay!" The empress dowager's excitement was beyond words, and after saying three good words, everyone stood up and took their seats.

There is a stage in the south of the hall, and the large gold-plated birthday characters on the stage wall are shining golden under the lights of the room. Eunuch Li waved the floating dust in his hand, and the music of Chaohe was played, and the singer's loud voice sang along with the music. Congratulations on birthday and wine.

Encouraged by the singing, concubines, princes and ministers came forward in groups of congratulations. The empress dowager always sat tall with a smile on her lips, enjoying the glory and pride that no one could appreciate.

Every time she sees a gift she is satisfied with, she raises her fingers slightly, which is a good reward for the presenter.

Shen Yunxi sat at the table and looked at the people who were constantly offering gifts, and then glanced at the people in the hall. She couldn't help but frowned slightly. Even Jing Xuan, who was empty-handed at the gate of the palace before, also brought gifts in her hands, only she was really empty-handed And enter.

"What's wrong? Don't you like this scene?!" Feng Qingchen's indifferent voice suddenly rang in Shen Yunxi's ear.

Shen Yunxi turned her head, and said with a slight complaint: "Since you know that today is the Empress Dowager's birthday, why didn't you tell me earlier, wouldn't I give someone who has a heart a chance to make trouble when I come here empty-handed?"
