Houmen Dixiu

Chapter 90
Princess Daming relied on her status, so naturally she would not try to curry favor with the queen.

"That's all."

The corner of the empress's lips lifted, and she didn't say anything anymore. She raised her head and drank the glass of wine with her wide sleeves in the way. She glanced at the ladies and ladies present one by one, and said with a smile: "It's my palace's birthday today. I heard that There are quite a few young ladies in each family who are good at poetry, singing and fu, and even music and dancing, I wonder if this palace has the honor to see it in person?"

As soon as the empress's voice fell, there was a commotion in the middle of the field. This was an opportunity to show off, and everyone would not let it go easily.

Mrs. Du's lips curled up slightly, she turned to Wang's side and said, "It seems that the empress wants to make a few more couples again."

"That's not true," Wang said with a low laugh, "It's just that I haven't seen the talents and skills of the young ladies, so it's not easy to mess with the mandarin ducks, is it?"

Xiao Huaisu, who were behind the conversation between the two, listened to their ears, turned around and saw Song Simiao who was beside him excitedly, a smile could not help but rise from the corner of his lips, the good show is yet to come.

"Looks like it's time for the crown prince and the other princes to show up."

Mrs. Du's eyes turned to the entrance of the main hall thoughtfully. It's impossible to only give the young ladies a chance to perform, and the people who really watch it don't show up, right?That doesn't make sense.

"They have come."

Wang Shi nodded with a smile and turned his gaze.

At this moment, there seemed to be several figures standing at the entrance of the main hall, only to hear the court ladies singing loudly, "The prince is here, the third prince, the seventh prince, and the ninth prince are here, the sons of Duke Jing are here, the sons of Guangenbo are here, and the sons of Jichangbo are here... "

Hearing the maid's singing and drinking, countless eyes turned to the entrance of the hall, full of fiery expectations.

There, a group of men in jade crowns and robes are stepping in one by one. They are full of spirits and dazzling brilliance. They are the youngest royals and nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They are the ideal husbands of countless ladies. Then he received the fiery gazes from all sides, and he stepped forward like stars.

"them……"

Du Yanyun looked at the people who came in one after the other in surprise, her mouth closed in surprise, her face blushed when her gaze caught sight of Gu Qingyang, and she lowered her head shyly, she didn't expect to see him here.

Although Xiao Huaisu was a little surprised, he could understand it. It was only natural for a group of juniors to pay respects to the empress on her birthday. These people are undoubtedly not the darlings of heaven, and which one of the wives and ladies here would not want to climb up to such a family?

Under this kind of psychological troubles, and on such occasions, the ladies have more reasons to show themselves openly, so why should they shy away from it?

No wonder everyone's eyes looked like wolves, Xiao Huaisu couldn't help covering his lips and chuckling.

It was just that when he saw Ye Guanlan, he hesitated slightly, and couldn't help but gritted his teeth secretly. This kid really came back. Seeing the casualness and freedom with which he dared to show up in the palace today, Xiao Huaisu was 100% sure that it was Ye Guanlan who let her enter the palace. idea.

Ye Guanlan's gaze swept away, and naturally he had noticed Xiao Huaisu long ago. Although he was saluting to the empress at the moment, he could still wink at Xiao Huaisu through the air.

"This kid!"

Xiao Huaisu snorted lightly, but his heart was full of joy.

Ye Guanlan finally came back, which is a good thing.

Today, however, he is wearing a navy blue royal robe. His thin figure is slightly loose in the robe, but his pair of peach blossom eyes are particularly bright, shining like stars. Judging from his complexion, although he is still slightly She was pale, but she was in good spirits, and she walked very steadily, which made her slightly relieved.

Gu Qingyang also seemed to have noticed Ye Guanlan's small movements beside him, and turned his eyes. When he saw Xiao Huaisu, his eyes lit up, but then they dimmed again when he thought of something. dead?

Gu Qingyang's complexion instantly became ugly. He and Xiao Huaisu knew each other first, but sometimes this girl gave him an indescribable feeling that guarding against him was like guarding against wolves, for fear of eating a little in front of him. deficit.

But Ye Guanlan has only known her for a long time, but the relationship between the two is so close, even he can feel the indescribable harmony and harmony between the two of them, just thinking about it makes people grit their teeth with envy.

Du Yanyun's eyes followed Gu Qingyang all the time, seeing him looking over at this moment, he felt a little moved in his heart. It can be seen that when he didn't notice himself at all but just looked at Xiao Huaisu, the loss in his heart spontaneously arose, and the gaze he looked at Xiao Huaisu also felt a little bit moved. It got complicated.

Du Yanyun's face darkened slightly, and he slowly clenched the palms of his sleeves. Xiao Huaisu was only four years old this year, but Gu Qingyang was already fifteen. It's impossible for him to have any thoughts about a little girl, right?

Such a person... what kind of woman cannot be found?

A trace of unwillingness flashed in Du Yanyun's eyes, and he gritted his teeth secretly.

Gu Qingyang was dressed in a dark black prince's robe embroidered with cloud patterns and gold borders. He was tall and handsome, and he was just standing beside the princes, but he was more dazzling than them!
Not only herself, but Du Yanyun also noticed that many ladies' eyes were on Gu Qingyang, even Song Simiao.

After the princes were seated, the empress specially invited the prince and Ye Guanlan to come over.

Xiao Huaisu took the opportunity to look at the prince. He was just a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a bright yellow brocade robe embroidered with dragon patterns on his body. He was neither short nor tall, and his appearance was fair. , but the difference is not a star and a half. It can only be described as mediocre, and there is nothing outstanding.

On the other hand, the Seventh Prince who sits under Concubine Shu, with his flying eyebrows and sharp eyes, is supposed to have the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix among people. No wonder the entire Jingguo Palace has high hopes for the Seventh Prince No wonder Gu Qingyang always stood beside him firmly and silently.

The remaining third prince was about the same age as the prince, but he looked a bit gloomy, and he didn't say anything after sitting down, just kept drinking.

The Ninth Prince is the youngest prince today, but he is still twelve or thirteen years old. His appearance is very handsome, his eyes look shrewd and smart, and everyone seems to have a gentle smile, but his mother and concubine are already Even if he died, his mother clan was not prominent, so it didn't help him at all.

The Eastern Palace is weak, so even though the crown prince has been canonized now, Concubine Shu and the Seventh Prince are still eyeing the throne, and they really have some reliance on it.

Xiao Huaisu frowned in deep thought, and happened to see Ye Guanlan stretch out her hand to point this way, the empress and the prince all looked over, she quickly lowered her head, her heart beating non-stop, the palm of her hand There was also a layer of sweat.

"Huai Su is getting ready to meet the empress."

Mrs. Du reminded her in a low voice, Xiao Huaisu raised her head suddenly, and sure enough, she saw a palace maid coming over, politely bowed to Mrs. Du and Mrs. Wang, and then said: "The Empress, please go and see Miss Xiao."
