Killer Pretty Queen

Chapter 125 The Art of Flanking Attack

Driven by Xiao Li and Huangfu Haotian, the hall was ebullient.

Although there were only a few simple lyrics, and even without music, the feeling of shock caused by the participation of the audience moved the emperor's heart incomparably.

"Okay... that's great! Ladies and gentlemen, I am really happy to receive such sincere blessings from you all today. Today is undoubtedly the happiest birthday I have ever had in my life. Thank you, Thank you, everyone. Of course, Xiaoli Xiaoqing’s family should be the one I should be most grateful to. Xiaoqing’s family, you are indeed worthy of being the number one talented woman in Beijing, a true all-rounder in civil and military affairs, and you deserve your name. !"

After receiving the emperor's praise, Xiao Li's heart was also sweet.In addition, at this time Huangfu Haotian was smiling at her tenderly with his head down, how could he keep her heart from being filled with happiness and sweetness?

However, Xiao Li only cared about her own happiness, so how could she have imagined that even in a situation like today, there are also people who are happy and others who are sad.

Just like this time, when she met Huangfu Haotian and smiled after receiving the emperor's praise.But he didn't see that at a certain position in the hall, there was someone secretly frowning, looking at Xiao Li and Huangfu Haotian's happy appearance in the field, what was revealed in his eyes, even more It's a vague hatred.

Prince Wu Huangfu Haobo looked at the fourth prince under the high platform, and the hatred in his heart became more and more intense.If today was not the birthday banquet of his father, he would even have murderous intentions towards Huangfu Haotian.

Fortunately, after all, Huangfu Haobo can be regarded as a man with a city in his heart.He naturally knew in his heart that at a time like this, being angry would make things worse.It would be better if he was still the same as before, still showing a benevolent and magnanimous kingly demeanor.Anyway, he and Huangfu Haotian are brothers after all, especially in front of his father, he can't be too aggressive, after all, right now is the critical moment for him to successfully succeed to the crown prince.

In short, no matter what, in Huangfu Haobo's heart, of course he doesn't want to let go of either beauty or country.However, it is precisely because of this that, as Prince Wu, he has to maintain his image in front of the emperor and all his officials.Just like the previous one, being impulsive in a hurry was indeed a big failure for him.

But this time, Huangfu Haobo believed in himself, and would never make such a low-level and stupid mistake again.

However, this does not mean that the relationship between him and Huangfu Haotian will end here.After all, what Huangfu Haotian is fighting with him is nothing but Xiao Li, whom he has already taken a fancy to.Na Xiaoli is Princess Wu, but he has already made up his mind.

So, this time, he couldn't give up easily no matter what.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Haobo couldn't help but suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled, then stood up again from the banquet, but this time, on his face, he had already put on a bright smile.

I saw him lightly crossing the table, and came to the high platform with a smile, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahaha... It seems that Miss Li'er is indeed a genius in the world, and she was able to cause so many people in the hall in such a short period of time. Human resonance——fourth brother, this time, you are a little opportunistic. But this king thinks that you should thank Miss Li'er well."

When he heard Huangfu Haobo's words, Huangfu Haotian couldn't help being startled secretly.But who is Huangfu Haotian?He is naturally an extremely smart and sensitive person, especially at this time, he only needs to look at Prince Wu, and quickly understand what Huangfu Haobo means at this time without thinking too much.

However, since Prince Wu didn't want to tear himself apart at this time, Huangfu Haotian naturally wouldn't do that either.What's more, today is the birthday of the emperor father, and they can maintain a harmonious relationship between brothers, all this is what the emperor likes to hear.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Haotian had already smiled at Prince Wu: "Brother Erhuang is right at all, this time my brother has indeed taken advantage of General Xiao a lot." Speaking of this, I saw Hastily took another step back, bowed down to Xiao Li, and said with a smile: "Marshal Xiao, I thank you very much from the Governor."

Looking at Huangfu Haotian's appearance, Xiao Li couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing: "Your Highness is serious, I am entrusted by Your Highness, so naturally I have to do my best to help His Highness."

Huangfu Haotian even smiled at her when he heard the words: "Anyway, General Xiao has always done me a big favor this time. Otherwise, it would be a little difficult for me to show my filial piety in front of my father. "

Hearing this, Prince Wu couldn't help laughing suddenly: "Hahaha, what the fourth brother said is true. Miss Li'er, you don't know that the fourth brother usually keeps a low profile. I've never seen him sing so loudly on any big occasion. However, since the fourth brother mentions his filial piety in front of the father, then naturally the elder brother can't just let it go."

When the emperor on the high platform saw this scene, he couldn't help but gently raised his hand to stroke the beard on his chin, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

Before, when he saw Prince Wu suddenly walked out of the banquet again, he was still a little worried.But when he saw Prince Wu's appearance, he was able to get along with Huangfu Haotian in harmony, for a while, he couldn't help but stabilize himself.

And at this time, when the emperor heard that Prince Wu actually proposed that he wanted to show off his talents at his birthday banquet like King Mingcheng to show his filial piety, the emperor couldn't help but feel happy again.

So the emperor said: "I am so relieved that Huang'er Haobo has such a heart! As far as I know, Huang'er Haobo is in our Ling country, but he is known as the most beautiful man in the world in dancing skills. If I guess correctly , will the Emperor want to dance a song for my birthday in Tianshou Palace today?"

After hearing the words, Huangfu Haobo slowly bowed to the emperor: "What the father said is true, and this minister has exactly the intention."

"Yeah!" The emperor couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing out loud when he heard it: "Hahaha, good! I just don't know, what kind of dance will the emperor bring to me today?"

Huangfu Haobo heard the words, but suddenly turned his head and smiled at Xiao Li, and then said: "Return to father, this dance is called "Falling Flowers and Snow"."

Xiao Li couldn't help being taken aback when she heard the words, but at this moment, Prince Wu suddenly said to her: "Miss Li'er, I still remember the first time I saw Miss Li'er dancing this dance, For a moment, I couldn't help but be shocked as a heavenly being."

"Oh? There is such a thing?" When the emperor heard it, he couldn't help being interested: "I have seen many talents of Xiao Aiqing, but I never knew that Xiao Aiqing can actually dance. ?”

When Prince Wu heard this, he turned around and smiled at the emperor, "My father doesn't know something, but Miss Li'er is a true all-rounder. It is said that she has been proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, and she is omnipotent in poetry and music."

"This, of course I believe it." The emperor nodded with a smile after hearing this.

"Before this, my father has seen a lot of Miss Li'er's talents, but I am afraid that my father has never seen Miss Li'er's own song "Falling Flowers and Snow Dance". However, It is precisely because of this that Erchen has to mention that this dance can be described as the essence of Miss Li'er's dance, not to mention its dexterity and elegance, it is even more unforgettable."

The emperor became even more interested when he heard it, and couldn't help asking: "Oh? According to what you said, how does her dance compare to that of A Xue and the others?"

However, Huangfu Haobo smiled slightly: "I can only say that these two dances are two extremes, and the dancing posture of the two cousins ​​is the best in the world. And Miss Li'er's dance naturally has a uniqueness that cannot be ignored. of stunning beauty."

"There is still such a thing?" After hearing Huangfu Haobo's introduction, the emperor's interest became even higher: "After what the emperor said, I feel a little impatient in my heart."

This was exactly what Huangfu Haobo was waiting for.At this moment, hearing the words, I couldn't help bowing to the emperor: "Since this is the case, I would like to ask my father to allow my father to accompany Miss Li'er and dance a brand new song "Falling Flowers and Snow" together to celebrate my father's birthday .”

"Sure!" This Emperor Ling Hui is a person who likes singing and dancing very much, not to mention that today is another rare and happy day for him.So at this time, Huangfu Haobo only needed to fan him a little, and Emperor Hui immediately agreed.

Only the empress, who was sitting next to the emperor at this time, had a hint of worry hidden between her brows, and she couldn't help but whispered to the emperor for a while: "Your Majesty, could it be that you really plan to make Huang'er Haobo and Xiao Do you want to dance with the general?"

The emperor gave her a comforting smile: "I know what the empress is worried about, but today is my birthday. What's more, Prince Wu is the empress' son. I think the empress should trust him more than I do."

After hearing this, the empress could not help but lower her head to look at Huangfu Haobo.But I saw the look on his face, it was very calm and safe.Although the empress is still a little uneasy, as the emperor said just now, Huangfu Haobo is her own son.And for so many years, he has indeed always been very good, and he has never made any major mistakes.

What's more, at this time, the emperor was in a good mood, so even though the empress was still a little worried, she really didn't want to dampen the emperor's interest.So in the end, the Empress decided it was better to keep her breath.

At this time, after Huangfu Haobo got the emperor's will, he couldn't help showing a brighter smile on his face.

"Miss Li'er, since my father has already agreed to this king's request, but I don't know Miss Li'er, are you willing to give this king some face?" Having said this, Prince Wu laughed softly at Huangfu Haotian. Said: "There is also the fourth brother, the second brother will borrow Miss Li'er for a while, and dance together for the father, but I don't know if the fourth brother has any opinions?"

Xiao Li was annoyed, she really wanted to scold her in front of all the civil and military ministers.But she couldn't.Because companions are like companions to tigers since ancient times, don't look at the fact that the emperor was still calling her little love one at a time, but if Xiao Li really made a small mistake in the next moment, it might annoy the emperor. Happy.But Xiao Li is not Huangfu Haotian, let alone the Prince Wu in front of him, the two of them are the emperor's sons after all, but Xiao Li is clearly just a courtier.

So at the end, Xiao Li could only grit her teeth fiercely, then lowered her head until she calmed down, then a smile appeared on her face, and she raised her head and said to him: "Since it is the emperor's order, Then it is natural for a humble minister to be respectful rather than obedient."

In fact, compared to Xiao Li, Huangfu Haotian is not much better at this time.

Although it is true that he is the real prince, but in comparison, Huangfu Haotian is a very scheming prince.Just as Huangfu Haobo was staring at the country of the Daling Kingdom with all his heart, Huangfu Haotian has made up his mind a long time ago.

Otherwise, for so many years, why did he need to live such a life of humiliation every day?He is obviously full of talent and ambition, but he just wants to be a low-key and unknown prince.

It was not until the last few months, under the behest of the crown prince, that he began to slowly try to emerge.Facts have proved that his move is indeed a superior move, and the emperor has gradually begun to pay attention to him.

It is precisely because of this that Huangfu Haotian should be careful at every step at this time, and he must not be easily caught because of a small mistake.Especially the Prince Wu in front of him, after all, in this dynasty, he is the only one who is the biggest obstacle for Huangfu Haotian to move forward.

"Where did the Second Emperor's words go? Since General Xiao has already agreed, what can I say?" After finishing speaking, Huangfu Haotian slowly bowed to the high platform: " The emperor father, the empress mother, and the sons and ministers withdrew."

The emperor and the empress smiled at each other, and then said to him: "The emperor has worked hard, go down and rest!"

"I obey." Huangfu Haotian had a smile on his face, and then he clasped his fists at Lord Wu and Xiao Li again: "My brother is here, I wish the second brother Huang and General Xiao good results in advance, so as to thank my father Huang Huanyan."

Lord Wu clasped his fists and replied: "Thanks to the praise of the fourth brother, the second brother will definitely try his best not to let everyone down."
