Moonlight Allure

Chapter 180
When they arrived at the imperial palace, they first went to the Longevity Palace of the Empress Dowager. The emperor Xiao Mingjing had already descended to the Longevity Palace, surrounded by a small number of concubines and several princes.

The queen mother seemed to be in a good mood, chatting with Xiao Mingjing beside her, and Xiao Mingjing also responded from time to time.

A report from the eunuch came from the door: "King Li is here, and Princess Li is here!"

In an instant, everyone in the hall looked at the door.

At the door, two people walked in slowly, holding hands.The man Qiongshuang has a jade face, with a smile on his brows, and is peerless.She was wearing gold silk embroidered sea-pattern shoes, wearing a moon-white purple gold luxurious robe, and pinned a delicate emerald green jade pendant around her waist.With steady and slow footsteps, the yellow tassels sway and sway, like a spring breeze supporting a willow.

Beside her, the woman has picturesque eyebrows and eyes, a beautiful nose and cherry lips, and a little peach blossom between her brows.Wearing a water-blue flowing smoke dress, the skirt is embroidered with magnolia flowers, and a few lotus leaves are drawn with light green silk thread on the wide sleeves, which makes her look like the clear flower in the pool. Lotus, spotless, can only be viewed from a distance and not be desecrated.

The two stood together so harmoniously, so well-matched, that the splendor in the room was dimmed.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but their eyes brightened, and then they thought about each other. There is no lack of jealousy or envy among the concubines in the harem.Looking back at the princes, Xiao Ziqiu's eyes flashed with pain after being amazed.Xiao Ziqi's long and narrow peach eyes flashed with a quiet luster, and the corners of his mouth raised an arc of unknown meaning.Xiao Junyi glanced coldly at random, and was slightly startled when he touched the water-blue figure, with a clear luster flowing through his eyes.Only Xiao Yuche's eyes were shining, full of admiration.

"Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, when the two of you come, some people around here are overshadowed."

Ignoring him, Xiao Moli walked to the center with Luo Qingyan, cupped his hands and said: "My son (daughter-in-law) pays my respects to my father."

"Free of courtesy" Xiao Mingjing was obviously in a very good mood, with smiles on his brows and eyes.

There was also a smile in the Queen Mother's eyes, "Well, Li'er is finally married. Come!" She changed her voice.

Immediately a nun walked in, holding a tray with teacups and utensils in it.

"The Queen Mother"

The queen mother took a look at Luo Qingyan, "Yan'er, you are Princess Li now, and you want to serve tea to the emperor and all the concubines."

"Yes" Luo Qingyan bowed her knees and walked to the side of the nanny, holding the teapot in her white as jade hand and pouring tea into the cup.From time to time, her movements were graceful and calm, and the lingering white mist smudged her absolutely beautiful face, making her look a little dazed and mysterious.The fragrance of tea lingered continuously, and the green tea seemed to become much more fragrant after passing through her hands.

She took the first cup of tea and walked in front of Xiao Mingjing, with her left foot slightly bent and placed behind her right knee, Qingyue's voice was full of respect.

"Please invite father to drink tea!"

Xiao Ming nodded, took the teacup, took a sip, and put down the teacup.

Luo Qingyan poured another cup of tea and walked to the Empress Dowager.

"Grandmother invited to drink tea!"

The queen mother also drank tea, with a faint satisfaction on her expression.

Next came the concubines, first of all Concubine Yao, the largest in the harem.

Luo Qingyan picked up the teacup, walked towards Yao Sihan unhurriedly, glanced at her casually out of the corner of her eye.Yao Sihan passed on a red peony embroidered palace dress today, with pearls and jade accessories on her head, bells everywhere, a string of jadeite necklaces around her white jade neck, and a suet jade bracelet on her wrist.

The face is gorgeous and charming, the eyes are full of affection, the vermilion lips are slightly pursed, and the whole person is radiant from top to bottom, domineering.

The empress was abolished, and Concubine Yao is now in charge of the harem, so the aura is even greater than before.

She looked at Luo Qingyan with a pair of bright autumn pupils, there was a gloomy glint in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled into a nice curve.

"Concubine Li is truly stunning, no wonder King Li treats her like a treasure." She said with a smile on her face.

Xiao Moli's deep eyes froze for a moment, and he glanced at Yao Sihan with a knife-like sharp gaze. Yao Sihan's spine felt cold all of a sudden, and the smile at the corner of his mouth froze for a moment, before quietly disappearing.Annoyance and resentment flashed in his eyes.

Luo Qingyan looked calm, and the teacup in her hand was already in front of Yao Sihan.With a smile on her face, her red lips parted slightly: "The flowers in the imperial garden are colorful and colorful, and they can't stand the wind and rain and wither wantonly. Therefore, even if they are stunningly beautiful, they can't escape the ravages of time." She pursed her lips and smiled. , the tea in his hand moved a little closer.

"The imperial concubine is so skillful in her appearance, she doesn't see any trace of wind and rain, her beauty is so envious!"

Xiao Moli's gloomy face was like a breeze blowing, and the spring was bright in an instant, and there was a hint of doting in the eyes looking at Luo Qingyan.Concubine Yao's complexion changed, and a cold knife light flashed in her eyes.

Luo Qingyan didn't seem to see it, "I invite you to drink tea!"

Staring at the cup of tea, Yao Sihan's eyes were extremely glared by that white jade soft hand. Her eyes flickered, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.The same white fingers gently took the cup of tea, and the moment Luo Qingyan let go.

Yao Sihan suddenly said "Oops", and the teacup in his hand fell in response, and the hot tea was about to be splashed on Luo Qingyan Baiyu Wuxia's hand.

The next moment, Luo Qingyan moved her fingers slightly, and the teacup that had been overturned in mid-air suddenly stood upright.Before Yao Sihan could see clearly what was going on, he could only hear the sound of water falling into the teacup.She raised her eyes suddenly, but Luo Qingyan had already handed the cup of tea to her intact.

"The tea is no longer hot, invite the imperial concubine to drink tea!"

Xiao Moli let go of the heart in his throat, and let go of the hand hidden in his sleeve.With a flash in his eyes, he couldn't help but smile wryly.With her skill, how could Yao Sihan's little trick hurt her?

but--

Squinting his eyes, Xiao Moli's cold eyes were like weapons buried under the snow peaks of thousands of years, sweeping towards Yao Sihan with the cold wind, his eyes suddenly embraced with a murderous aura.This woman, sooner or later, he will let her know what it means to regret.

Below, Xiao Ziqiu's tense heart was slightly relieved, Xiao Ziqi's eyes flashed, and his perfect lips curled into a helpless arc.Peach Blossom Eyes hidden a cold and sharp light and glanced at Yao Sihan, with a slight disappointment in his eyes.

The mother concubine's move was too stupid, didn't she have seen Yan Yan's martial arts that night?Now that she is doing these little tricks in full view, is it true that Yan Yan is those ignorant women in the harem?Or did he think that his father was afraid of the power of his Yao family and dared not do anything to her?Didn't she see it?Father is already angry.

Yao Sihan's face froze, and there was surprise in her eyes, just now she didn't see clearly that Luo Qingyan made a move, and the tea returned to the teacup without a single drop left.Suddenly, Luo Qingyan poisoned the Queen that night...

Her complexion paled slightly, and when she received the cold and gloomy gaze cast from above by Xiao Mingjing, her complexion turned even paler, and she even forgot to take the teacup.

The Empress Dowager's face darkened, and displeasure flashed across her brows: "Concubine Yao!"

Yao Sihan woke up like a dream, and immediately took the teacup Luo Qingyan handed over, but she knocked over the teacup in a moment of panic.The warm tea immediately splashed all over the body, soaking the bright red and magnificent palace attire.She yelled 'ah' and stood up immediately.With a flash of Xiao Moli's figure, she immediately embraced Luo Qingyan in her arms to protect her from harm.

The empress dowager's eyebrows darkened, and anger suddenly flashed in her eyes.

"Concubine Yao, pay attention to your image! As the head of all the concubines, how can you be so ignorant of etiquette in front of so many juniors? How decent is this?"

Emperor Xiao Mingjing's eyes were also brewing with cold anger, and the sharp and frozen eyes fell on her body like sharpened knives, making her feel like a thorn in her back, and her face paled in fright.Looking at the Queen Mother aggrievedly, "The Queen Mother..."

"Okay!" The Empress Dowager interrupted her in a deep voice, "It's not been a day or two since you entered the palace, why are you still so ignorant?"

The concubines below Concubine Yao were all secretly proud. Yao Sihan was used to being arrogant and domineering in the harem and offended many people, so seeing the Queen Mother scolding her at this time, these people were not to mention how happy they were.

"The Queen Mother, not a concubine..." Concubine Yao still wanted to defend herself.

"That's enough," the Queen Mother sneered, "The Ai family doesn't want to listen to your explanation. Li'er and Yan'er just got married, and the Ai family doesn't want to argue with you." Is it true that she is too old to see her small movements?This woman is restless at all times.

"Imperial Grandmother" Xiao Ziqiu stood up, her brows were clear, and the corner of her mouth was smiling as usual.

"Perhaps my concubine was just careless, please don't blame the emperor." His voice was clear and refined, making people smell like a spring breeze.The empress dowager's anger also eased a little.

"Okay, let's all sit down."

Yao Sihan's teeth were itching with hatred, but he couldn't get angry. He scolded Luo Qingyan all over the place in his heart, so he had to sit swallowing his anger.

Luo Qingyan looked as usual, and continued to serve tea to the concubines.With the example of Yao Sihan, no one dared to be presumptuous anymore.Besides, they don't have the capital to dare to embarrass them.Everyone knows that the emperor's favorite son is King Li, and King Li loves his new wife like a treasure.Dare to fight against these two people, unless their brains are almost flooded.They are not Concubine Yao, and they don't have such a huge family to rely on.

After a while, after serving tea, Luo Qingyan and Xiao Moli sat side by side.
