Chapter 290

"Yanyan, my stomach hurts."

Xiyan rested her chin and fell into deep thought. Her eyes widened and widened on Emperor Jing. Other people in the palace had already focused their attention on her, some even pointed at her, and talked a lot, but she didn't realize it until Xia Yebai pulled her clothes vigorously with those oily hands, and only then did she regain her senses.

"what happened?"

Seeing Xia Yebai covering her stomach with her hands and frowning, Xi Yan immediately guessed: "Who told you to eat so much?"

I don't know if he really has a stomachache or is just pretending, but there are so many people here, Xiyan naturally treats him as a fool, her actions are the same as before, gentle and careful.

"Does my stomach really hurt? I can't leave for a while."

Xi Yan lay next to his ear, and carefully looked around: "If you can bear it, you can bear it."

The place of the imperial palace is no better than the outside, but he knows his abilities, but he is not around, so he is always worried.

"Go out and do some errands. You should handle it carefully. I'll be back soon."

Xia Yebai was lying on the table, and he yelled out, quite realistically.

The rest of the people thought he was a fool, and when they saw his popularity just now, they didn't make a fuss, covered their mouths, and laughed secretly.

"What happened to Seventh?"

Emperor Jing who was in the middle saw Xia Yebai lying on the table, clutching his stomach, and asked, while the rest of the people saw that Emperor Jing spoke, and hurriedly suppressed the contempt in their eyes.

"Maybe I ate too much, and my stomach feels a little uncomfortable."

Xiyan was not afraid of embarrassment, and confessed honestly.

"Haha."

Emperor Jing laughed happily, turned around, and could vaguely hear the smile in his words: "It's still the same as before."

That voice actually carried the memory of the past: "Zhou Qiang, take the Seventh Prince there, don't let him run around, don't get lost."

Any maidservant in Xuelan Palace can do such a small matter. Although Zhou Qiang is a eunuch, he has served Emperor Jing since he was a child, and he has watched him grow up. He was only occasionally asked to run errands for urgent matters.

When everyone saw that Emperor Jing actually did such a thing, Zhou Qiang couldn't help being a little curious, not to mention them, but even Xi Yan, who didn't react for a while.

Xia Yebai seemed to be telling her something with his actions today, and none of Jingdi's reactions confirmed it. Xiyan couldn't help but think of what Hongyu said to her that day. Ten years ago, the emperor's favorite It was the Seventh Prince who sent him out of the palace suddenly. Could it be that there was something really deep about it? Did he know that Xiaobai's stupidity was not just pretending?Or even if he is a fool, he still loves and loves him. Is everything he had to do back then, or is there another reason?
But no matter what, with Emperor Jing's personal attendant following Xia Yebai, Xi Yan felt relieved, no matter how bold those people were in this palace, they would definitely not dare to break ground on Wan Sui's head.

After drinking for three rounds, most of the people present were drunk. Those singing and dancing were fine at first, but it was like this every time there was a banquet. After watching, they got tired. The lights were dazzling and swaying in the wind. The eyes of the people who were shaking were uncomfortable, and Xiyan was always energetic, so she couldn't help feeling drowsy, but she was still able to put on a show, and reluctantly continued to hold on, her heart was still alert.

"Princess Gong is not feeling well, should I find an imperial doctor to have a look?"

Xiyan propped her chin with her hands, her long eyelashes were raised, her eyes were slightly closed, and when she heard that she was called, she quickly sat up straight and looked at Concubine Lan who spoke.

"Could it be that after the Seventh Prince left for a while, the princess began to miss him."

Li Fei laughed and joked, but the meaning was unclear.

"My prince likes to join in the fun. He knew he was going to enter the palace yesterday. He was so excited that he couldn't sleep. He was making noise all night and didn't sleep well."

So, let her and Xiaobai go back, this kind of palace banquet is really boring.

During this period of time, it was Xia Yebai who was making noise, it was clearly her who was trying to prevent him from sleeping. She couldn't say that the singing and dancing were too boring, causing her to fall asleep.

Concubine Li smiled slightly at Emperor Jing Yingying: "Although today's singing and dancing is grand, it's just too rigid and lacks any new ideas. The concubines can't help but feel sleepy after watching it. All of you here are relatives, so why don't you think about it more easily?" How about something interesting?"

Emperor Jing nodded, turned around and said to Concubine Lan at the side: "You are the rightful lord today, Concubine Ai, tell me what you have in mind."

Concubine Lan pursed her lips and smiled. That smile was really just right. A little more would be too much, and a little less would not show her softness. She frowned slightly and thought for a moment: "The sisters in the palace serve the saint Jia must have a good skill, and many ministers and daughters in the court today are all talented. How about writing their names on paper and casting lots, and whoever catches them will perform in public. Compared with the singing and dancing It's not very interesting, what does the emperor think?"

Concubine Lan leaned against Emperor Jing's arms, rubbing against her slightly, she really was a master who could act like a baby.

Emperor Jing nodded and said with a smile: "It's a fresh idea, it's indeed much more interesting than the dull singing and dancing, as you can tell."

Concubine Lan accepted her favor with a smile, and went down to prepare. Not long after, she held a vase with blue patterns in her hands. The rest of the eunuchs prepared their pens and ink, and prepared a small piece of paper for the female relatives present. Everyone took turns to write After putting his name on it, another eunuch collected these things and finally put them into the blue and white porcelain vase.

"Today, the concubine is the host, so let the concubine take the lottery. What does the emperor think?"

Emperor Jing nodded and hummed lightly.

Performing song and dance?Xi Yan moved her body, and bumped against the blunt and rough thing on her hand, thinking of the little note that the eunuch handed her just now, she raised her heart, glanced around, and saw that the other female relatives present were all in the same place. There are three thousand beauties in the palace, but there is only one Emperor Jing, and there are many monks and few meats. These women have always competed for favor and beauty, and even used all means, how could they let go of such a good opportunity.

Of course, the most excited ones are those official ladies who are still waiting to be married. They all look like they have beaten eggs and blood. This is not difficult to understand. Although Emperor Jing is over forty years old, he is well maintained. Yes, refined and elegant, quite handsome, and the other princes, especially the position of the mistress of the Dongchen Mansion, is still pending. Today, the emperor and empress are present, and Concubine Li is also here. If they are outstanding, they can be regarded as long-faced Now, which woman does not have the dream of flying on a branch and becoming a phoenix.

The first one to be drawn was the queen. As the eldest daughter of the Wang family, the queen is a top-notch player in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and needlework, especially in calligraphy and painting. Lan jumped on the paper, lifelike, and Concubine Lan was delighted, and everyone was full of praise.
