The reborn woman returns

Chapter 68

Huo Hanyan looked away angrily, and lifted the curtain to let the wind dissipate the blush on her cheeks.Seeing the red light hanging high outside, I suddenly remembered: "But today is the Queen Mother's birthday, I'm afraid I can't promise you."

In the afternoon, I will go into the palace with my mother and concubine to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday, even if I leave the palace, it will be already late at night.

Seeing Xue Yan's knowing expression, he understood the true meaning of his words of letting me stay with him for the night.After the carriage left the city from Yihe Gate, circled around and re-entered from Jinyang Gate, until the carriage entered Long Street, Xue Yan didn't say a word during the process. Occasionally, Huo Hanyan glanced away, and found that his eyes were deep and he didn't know what to think. What, Huo Hanyan told the carriage to stop when passing by Xianfulu.When Huo Hanyan got out of the car, the corners of Xue Yancai's lips curled up, "What I want is tonight, it is tonight. I will wait outside Liufang Pavilion until you come."

Huo Hanyan was shocked, with a wry smile on the corner of her mouth, "Xue Shaochen, why are you making things difficult for me?"

Xue Yan looked at Huo Hanyan's lips slightly curled up, and slowly lowered the curtain, a voice came from inside the carriage, "The princess is making things difficult for me this time."

Huo Hanyan couldn't help frowning as the carriage moved forward slowly without stopping at all after saying that, Xue Shaochen seemed a little weird today.

When the sun was setting, the entire imperial palace began to light up the big red lanterns one by one, and the most lively and grand dinner party on the Empress Dowager's birthday was about to begin.

On the Empress Dowager's birthday, court officials of the second rank and above and all the relatives of the emperor will come in to congratulate her. In the imperial garden, the court ladies carry delicacies and delicious wines.Huo Hanyan noticed with sharp eyes that there was no shadow of Xue Shaochen beside Wei Guogong. Could it be that he did not enter the palace?Suddenly recalling his actions and words today, his heart skipped a beat, he wouldn't be in Liufang Pavilion, would he?

Originally, King Huo was supposed to rush back to the imperial capital before the Queen Mother's birthday, but unfortunately there was a letter that Liu Fenggu, the owner of Lanyue Mountain Villa in Huaixiu Mansion, passed away yesterday, leaving some extremely urgent matters waiting to be dealt with.So before returning, Princess Huo specially confessed to the queen mother and the emperor.The Empress Dowager was naturally delighted to see their family coming, especially when she saw Huo Haoxuan, her peaceful eyes suddenly glowed.

Huo Haoxuan was dressed in a light purple prince's suit, with a dragon body inlaid with gold threads, a bright jade flying dragon crown on his head, and a dragon and a phoenix posture.When he just entered the palace, everyone's eyes had already been fixed on him. There are quite a few unmarried men in the imperial capital with outstanding looks.

Ling Yuncong, the eldest son of King Yun, is handsome and clear, but unfortunately he still has childishness;
Xue Yan, Marquis of Ningyuan, has an extraordinary bearing, how can he sigh that he is romantic;
The virtuous king Ling Jiangyu is gentle and elegant, but he is engaged in a marriage contract.

Neither is a good match!

Now that there is such a handsome young man who looks like a banished fairy, all the ladies start to think about their own thoughts, and all the ladies who understand their mother's eyes are all shy.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he came forward to salute respectfully with exclamations from all around. "Haoxuan wishes the queen mother a long life and peace, and the pines and cypresses stay here forever."

"Good... good... good!" The queen mother said three good words in satisfaction, looked from top to bottom with her loving eyes, and smiled at the emperor, "When Haoxuan left the imperial capital, he was just a smile. The childish child has such an outstanding temperament now. Come here and let my aunt have a good look."

"The empress dowager praises it, Haoxuan is ashamed." Huo Haoxuan smiled very gently and nodded slightly.

Emperor Yongtai smiled and shook his head, his dragon eyebrows slightly raised. "King Huo must be very pleased to have such a son."

Now Huo Wangfu's relationship with the royal family is already very delicate because of Han Yan and Ling Jiangyu, but Huo Wangfei is superficial, and her every move is flawless.Han Yan also immediately went forward to pay respects to the emperor, and wished the queen mother a happy birthday. The queen mother praised a few words in comfort, and then turned her eyes to Ruan Qiluo, whom she had heard about for a long time.

"This is Miss Qiluo?" The Empress Dowager looked at Ruan Qiluo with a full smile.

In fact, Huo Hanyan was a little worried. Since the Queen Mother cared so much about Sister Qiluo, whether she had sent someone to check.If the identity of Sister Qiluo is discovered, then... no, the secret guards of Duke Wei's mansion have been trained carefully since childhood, and they also wear silver masks when they go out on missions on weekdays.

Ruan Qiluo squatted and half-kneeled calmly. "Ruan Qiluo, the daughter of the people, has met the Empress Dowager. I wish the Empress Dowager good luck and health." Although it is not a perfect court ceremony, it is very rare for Princess Huo to be like this in just a few hours.He treated the Queen Mother's questioning well, without any panic.After the next wave of people came forward to celebrate her birthday, Huo Hanyan retreated to her seat and sat down, her nervous heart gradually relaxed.Looking at Ruan Qiluo beside him with indifferent eyes, he couldn't help but sigh that the leader of the country's secret guards is really extraordinary, and he is also very good at coping with situations quickly.

As if aware of Huo Hanyan's gaze, Ruan Qiluo looked towards her, saw her slightly worried eyes smiled, stretched out his hand to hold her, and then suddenly thought of something, seeing that there was no one around for a while, the maid left again When he was far away, he turned sideways and whispered in Huo Hanyan's ear, which made Huo Hanyan's eyes slightly open, a little surprised.

Huo Hanyan pointed at her elder brother in disbelief, speechless.Meaning that this is really what the elder brother meant?Is this too big a game? !

"The prince said that the power of the Duke of Wei is currently in the court, and the royal family must be very worried about the recent frequent encounters with King Yun. At present, the guard is not in good health. Even if he enters the court in peace, his reputation will not be as good as before. Now the fledglings are fledgling, and the surroundings are almost full of civil servants. In order to balance the court structure, the royal family will not agree to the princess and the virtuous king's termination of engagement anyway." Even Master Xuanshu's order was forcibly suppressed by the royal family. It can be seen that there is no room for change in the hearts of the royal family. Even if Master Xuanshu's order is true, the combination of the two is more than one death, and they will ignore it for the sake of the country.

"That's why big brother came up with this idea?" It's not that she hasn't thought about it, but the changes in the court structure are hard to guard against, and she herself is not good at it.Thinking that Ling Jiangyu was able to go so smoothly in the previous life, it must be the royal family who took the balance. in this way.But now Wei Guogong's lineage is in full swing, with such a one-sided situation, it is no wonder that the royal family has even abandoned the bloody orders.

Eldest Brother's plan is slanted forward, but it happens to hit Qicun, it will definitely work.But to act like this for the sake of breaking the engagement, what if the trouble is too big to be recovered?
