marry the princess

Chapter 30
When the guards carefully took out the whole box, which was still surrounded by a whole piece of white silk cloth, Murong Yunnuo walked to the front with a mischievous smile, "Queen Mother, this is what Lao Jiu specially brought back for you." nice one."

After finishing speaking, Murong Yunnuo grabbed a corner of the silk cloth, and when he pulled it, the whole piece of silk cloth slid down, revealing the secret hidden in it——a tall, fairy-like, and budding giant indigo plant. lotus.

The bewitching blue color is particularly eye-catching under the moonlight, and the swollen bones make people unable to hold their breath and concentrate, for fear that their own breath will crack this enchanting and fairy-like flower.And during this breath-holding gaze, the swollen bone gradually stretched out in the swaying breeze, one piece, two pieces, three pieces... the petals that were as cool as jade spread out one by one, and finally fell under the moonlight. Freeze the most beautiful posture.

"This, this is..." The Empress Dowager Chengyuan was a little dumbfounded.

"This is the blue lotus of Xiyun."

This blue lotus blooming in the moonlight stands on top of the large and round green lotus leaves, with crystal green stems protruding high out of the water, with a noble and graceful figure, like a bathing girl wearing a transparent dress. The white veil dances on the surface of the water, and the blue lotus blossoms are in full bloom, just like the sweet smile of a young girl.

All the people present watched intently and were deeply attracted.This lotus is still kept in a large porcelain vat with white glaze. It is obvious that Murong Yunnuo has put in a lot of effort to present it in such a perfect posture at this moment.

"Beautiful, so beautiful." The queen mother repeatedly praised, "Nuoer put a lot of thought into it, right? It's hard for Nuoer to be so caring. Aijia is really happy."

"It's good that the queen mother is happy, and the old nine is not in vain." Murong Yunnuo said happily.

"This flower is the most beautiful at the moment, but it will take you three days to travel from Xiyun to the Dynasty, but I don't know how the ninth brother did it?" Emperor Murong Qingyu asked curiously.

"When I chose the blue lotus in Xiyun, I chose a budding one. Although it took three days on the road, I would not miss the moment of blooming when I arrived at the Dynasty. And this blue lotus has a special Where it is, it will only bloom at night, and it will close petal by petal in the morning, so there is a scene of blooming before our eyes just now."

"It's amazing, this flower is really amazing." The Empress Dowager Chengyuan was amazed.

"The ninth brother really puts his heart into favoring the queen mother. Although the fifth sister is old, she is really ashamed of herself. At this moment, she can only see the beauty of this wonderful thing through the light of the queen mother." The fifth princess finished watching the flowers on the side. , very humble to the Queen Mother.

"Lao Jiu wanders around the mountains and rivers without doing his job, Fifth Sister can't laugh at her."

"The ninth younger brother always remembers the queen mother when he sees something novel, and his filial piety is rare." Murong Yu also praised beside him, "If the ninth younger brother has such deep thoughts in other aspects, he will definitely achieve great achievements."

Emperor Murong Qing Yu looked at Murong Yu, and felt that there was something in his words, but he didn't answer, but Murong Huayi looked at Murong Yu with interest, and took the words he didn't provoke, "Seventh brother, what's wrong with you?" The words are a bit interesting, Brother Ninth is used to being carefree, and he doesn't even have a nominal position, I don't know where Brother Seven hopes that Brother Nine will have a great achievement?"

Sitting next to Murong Yu, Luo Suyun felt the aggressiveness in Murong Huayi's words, and couldn't help but look at Murong Yu anxiously, but Murong Yu was very indifferent, drinking slowly with a glass of wine, "I just looked at Jiu My brother is so thoughtful, so I thought that if he could put some effort into national achievements, he would probably be able to achieve something."

"Lao Qi is right." The Empress Dowager agreed deeply after hearing this, "Although Lao Jiu is very childish, this kindness is extremely rare. The Ai family also believes that if Lao Jiu can apply such thoughts to state affairs , will make a difference.”

"The Empress Dowager invited us here today to admire the moon. This wonderful flower is a surprise. Lao Jiu's tricks have never disappointed." Emperor Murong Qingyu looked at Murong Yu, and smiled, "Since the Empress Dowager I also opened my mouth, I don't know what kind of gift the emperor brother can give the ninth brother to be worthy of this strange flower."

Su Leyan was a little dazed looking at the current situation. There seemed to be some subtle changes between the three brothers. On the surface, they seemed to be brothers and sisters, but Su Leyan felt very awkward.

"Second brother was joking, Lao Jiu brought these flowers just to show everyone, and I don't ask for any return from the emperor." Murong Yunnuo refused completely, looked at Emperor Murong Qingyu and the Queen Mother, and finally looked at Murong Yu , Said, "Seventh brother is flattering me. Second brother and Manchu civil and military achievements have made national achievements. Naturally, I don't have to worry about it."

Murong Yunnuo himself opened his mouth, and Murong Yu just smiled and didn't say much.

After admiring the flowers, the Empress Dowager ordered someone to move Lan Lian Haosheng to her palace. A group of dancers with fluttering skirts slid into the courtyard and danced for a while in the center accompanied by the melodious music of the piano.

At this moment, everyone is sitting in their seats, watching the singing and dancing. Su Leyan is sitting next to Murong Huayi. On the throne directly above the steps, the two of them spoke a few words from time to time, and the emperor smiled respectfully; the fifth princess and the son-in-law were very at ease, touching their heads and whispering a few words, with a faint smile on their faces. Smiling, very happy appearance; the Seventh Princess Luo Suyun is next to Murong Yu, she is full of charm, every frown and smile is irresistible attraction, but Murong Yu is very deserted, sitting quietly, He always holds a wine glass in his hand; Murong Yunnuo sits alone, but concentrates on watching the song and dance performance, occasionally holding a wine glass to drink a sip or two or eat some snacks in front of him; while the young Sixteenth Princess and Seventeenth Prince After admiring the flowers, they all went back to the palace led by their aunts.

Su Leyan was not interested in the princes and princes of the royal family at first, but sitting here, in order to blend into the atmosphere, she had to pay attention to their actions and conversations at all times.Always paying attention to others, Su Leyan naturally took more effort.Murong Huayi saw Su Leyan sitting next to him, but he was concentrating on looking away, instead of focusing on his side, he glanced at the singing and dancing in front of him with a frown.

This looks good?Look so hard...

Murong Huayi personally poured her a glass of wine and handed it to her, and Su Leyan picked it up, "Thank you, my lord." But when she took a sip, Su Leyan almost screamed, did she take a sip of chili water?
Seeing that she was startled suddenly, but still calmed down with good self-control, Murong Huayi put back the smile on his lips and said worriedly: "Why, this wine is too strong?"

Su Leyan frowned and nodded, she was so hot that she wanted to stick out her tongue to cool off, but in such a large crowd, she had no choice but to tighten her mouth and nod to him uncomfortable.

So, Murong Huayi took Su Leyan out for a walk temporarily.

"Is it okay for us to come out like this?" Su Leyan asked a little worried, Murong Huayi put his hands behind his back, "The princess drank too much, so I will take you out to blow some air to sober up, so that there will be no delay."

Su Leyan felt that what he said was reasonable.Staying there all the time, Su Leyan always felt that she seemed to be wearing shackles all over her body. No matter if she said a word or took a step, she was under the heavy gaze, extremely uncomfortable, and came out beside Murong Huayi Walking around, most of that uncomfortable feeling faded away.

Su Leyan exhaled a few breaths easily, feeling really comfortable.

The two of them walked without saying a word. After walking for a while, they reached a lake. Murong Huayi stopped and said, "Wait for me here, I'll be back soon."

Su Leyan was a little surprised, "Where are you going?"

"Are you reluctant to let this king leave your side?" Murong Huayi made fun of Su Leyan and silenced her.

After Murong Huayi left, Su Leyan secretly reflected on herself, her question just now had already overstepped, she shouldn't ask, they don't interfere with each other, and there is no need to act when no one is present, what he wants to do has nothing to do with her, at that time she But she opened her mouth in a hurry and subconsciously, but at this moment she is alone here, staying in this empty and strange palace, Su Leyan is more or less insecure, and it is reasonable to ask her just now.
