Moonlight Allure

Chapter 186
In the hall, the luminous pearl is dazzling, the flowers of various colors are fragrant, the clothes are enchanting, the dancing steps are graceful, the wine and food are delicious, and the beauties are like flowers.It looks like a beautiful country, like a feast of joy.

However, the several people in power in this hall have their own considerations in their hearts. Xiao Mingjing's rigid facial features are slightly softened, and there is a faint smile on his face, which seems to be in a good mood.But those eyes were dark and deep, making it impossible to see to the bottom at a glance.Concubine Yao beside her had a noble smile on her face, her face flickered with a dark light of unknown meaning, and her eyes occasionally flashed coldly.

Yao Yuanzheng below has a proud face, his sophisticated black eyes are like deep ancient pools, hiding sharpness.Xiao Ziqiu on the opposite side had a calm and calm face, but there was no usual gentle smile on Zhi Shi's face.The eyes that are as warm as obsidian are surrounded by a thick sadness, and the surroundings also exude a sense of loneliness and sadness.Xiao Ziqi on the left looked at the talent performances of the daughters of various families, and the corners of his mouth evoked a faint smile.His eyes were dark and deep, and a sigh and sadness flashed between his brows.

Xiao Junyi still had an expression of indifference, everything in the hall was nothing in his eyes.Xiao Yuche also admired the singing and dancing with great interest, but occasionally a dark light flashed in his eyes.

On the opposite side, Ouyang Hen sat quietly, his face was indifferent, but his eyes, which were as calm as autumn wind, glanced at Luo Qingyan's figure from time to time.She was watching the performance on the field with great interest, and the wine glass in her hand was dangling casually.Those twinkling phoenix eyes seemed to be a clear source, sparkling and shining brightly.

Luo Qingyan didn't notice that Ouyang Hen looked at her differently, but Xiao Moli who was beside him had already noticed it.His eyes, as deep as glazed glass, were pitch-black, and there was a gloomy aura in his eyes.The hand holding the wine glass was also slightly tightened, and the thin lips were tightly pursed, as if holding back something.

The sudden familiar smell in the air shook his mind, and he listened to the news from the dark guard, and the corner of his mouth twitched sarcastically.

Until the breath disappeared, Luo Qingyan leaned lazily on Xiao Moli's body, and asked softly, "Has the situation changed?"

Xiao Moli lowered her head, looking at her face flushed from drinking, a trace of doting flashed across her eyes.His lips moved close to her ear, and in a posture that seemed to be whispering between lovers, he said softly: "Everything is carried out according to the original plan."

Luo Qingyan curled her lips into a slight smile, her eyes filled with smiles, her face was stained with crimson, and her phoenix eyes were stained with misty color.From the perspective of others, she was shy because of what Xiao Moli said.

At this time, Xiao Mingjing who was sitting high spoke.

"Today's palace banquet, apart from celebrating the return of General Yao, there is another thing."

As soon as his words fell, the hall immediately fell silent, waiting for Xiao Mingjing's next words.

Xiao Mingjing's eyes slightly scanned the expressions of everyone below, his eyes were dark and deep.He said in a loud voice: "A few days ago, Ouyang Cheng of Wuyou City majored in studying books in me. He sincerely made friends with the Celestial Dynasty. To show his sincerity, he would like to make friends with Qin and Jin." His eyes fell on Ouyang Hen.

"Therefore, the young city master of Wuyou City is also here today."

Following Xiao Mingjing's gaze, the gazes of many ministers' daughters also fell on Tsinghua University's indifferent Ouyang Hen.One after another, they were ashamed, their eyes rolled, and their affection flowed.This Ouyang Hen is also dignified and imposing.Although they are not relatives of the emperor, Wuyou City and the Celestial Dynasty have been separated for a hundred years, and they have already become their own country, which can be regarded as a small country, and Ouyang Hen is equivalent to a prince.

Such a young man, with such a handsome face and a temperament beyond the dust.Naturally won the favor of many girls.Originally, as soon as the palace banquet started, the daughters of many ministers noticed Ouyang Hen.It's just that I don't understand the identity of the other party, and because of the constraints of etiquette, I have to pretend to be reserved.Now, Xiao Mingjing's words made them feel elated.

To marry Qin and Jin, that is a marriage!Although Wuyou City is far away from the capital city, but I heard that Wuyou City is picturesque and the folk customs are simple, and there has always been an ancient motto of the Ouyang family in Wuyou City: Anyone who inherits the position of the city lord of Wuyou City can only have one wife for life, which must not be violated.

A couple for life, this is something that many wealthy daughters dare not even think about.But now that such a god-sent opportunity is in front of them, how can we not make them excited?Besides, from Xiao Mingjing's words, this Wuyou City will definitely belong to the territory of the Celestial Dynasty in the future, and then Ouyang Hen will be a veritable prince by then.

Think about it, if you can marry Ouyang Hen, you will have glory, wealth, and happiness.Compared with the princes present here, many ministers' daughters like Ouyang Hen more in their hearts.

Although Ouyang Hen is not a royal relative, there is no possibility of inheriting the great line.But on the other hand, there will be no harem beauties in the future.Wouldn't it be a good match for him to stand alone?
Thinking of this, those women who were jealous in their hearts just now felt a burst of rejoicing.So what if Luo Qingyan has a peerless appearance?So what if King Li is infatuated with her?In the future, King Li will still be surrounded by three wives and four concubines after all, so how can a single flower stand out when all the flowers bloom together?
Xiao Mingjing's dark and deep eyes swept across the daughters who were jumping up and down below, and looked at Yao Yuanzheng's flickering face.A dark light flashed across his eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled up.Facing Ouyang Hen, he said, "Master Ouyang"

Ouyang Hen raised his eyes, his eyes were as calm as a pool of water.He stood up lightly, dressed in green, like a green lotus in a pond.That proud and pine figure seemed to have a vague loneliness, and he walked towards the center of the hall step by step.

Neither humble nor arrogant: "My father once said that if there are changes in the frontier in the future, if the people of Wuyou City can be kept safe, then Wuyou City is willing to belong to the Celestial Dynasty in the future, and the people of Wuyou City will serve the emperor of the Tian Dynasty as their master." His eyes flickered , A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes.

"In order to show sincerity and peace in the future, my father sent me here to make peace with the Celestial Dynasty, and I hope His Majesty will make it happen."

Luo Qingyan's eyes darkened, and it was another political marriage.Ouyang Hen was proud, but for the sake of his family, he had to sacrifice his lifelong happiness.Sad, deplorable!
Xiao Moli, who was beside her, sensed her instant emotional change, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Luo Qingyan raised her eyes and smiled, desolation and happiness flashed across her eyes.

"Mo, fortunately we are not victims of political marriage. Fortunately, we have the right to choose."

Xiao Moli's eyes hurt, and he hugged her in his arms.The two of them are deeply affectionate here, but some people can't see their long-lasting love.

"I heard that Princess Li has an outstanding literary talent and superb talent." Yao Yuanzheng's low and high voice rang out.

"I wonder if I'm lucky enough to have a look?"

As soon as the words fell, all eyes in the hall fell on Luo Qingyan.Watching the show, envious, jealous, indifferent...

Xiao Moli's eyes sank, and there was a glint in his eyes.Concubine Yao's eyes showed sarcasm and sarcasm, Xiao Mingjing's expression was unclear and he didn't make a sound.The Empress Dowager's face was as usual, but there was a flash of light in her eyes.

Xiao Ziqi's sluggish figure was shaken, and his sparkling eyes suddenly became deep, with a dark light flowing in his eyes.Xiao Ziqiu's eyes flashed, and there was worry and helplessness in his eyes.Ling Jueshang was angry, and Luo Yunzhi's face was solemn.

Luo Qingyan came out of Xiao Moli's embrace with lowered eyes, her long eyelashes drooping down, covering up the glint in her eyes.

She waved her sleeves, raised her eyes, and there was a smile in her eyes.

"The general's words are wrong." She wanted to perform, but she couldn't be too eager, otherwise the other party would notice something strange.

"Oh?" Yao Yuanzheng raised his eyebrows thickly, and there seemed to be disdain in his eyes. "I wonder what Princess Li's opinion is?"

Luo Qingyan smiled, and stood up gracefully, with a casual and lazy expression, but noble and generous.There are thousands of styles and styles in every gesture.All the women present stared red with envy.

"Father said just now that the young city lord of Wuyou City came to form a friendship between Qin and Jin with the Celestial Dynasty. In this way, all the unmarried women present here can perform and perform, so that Mr. Ouyang can find someone who can sing and sing." Her eyes fluttered. Turning around, the light in his eyes suddenly turned cold, and his voice raised slightly: "This concubine has already married into the palace. On such an occasion, how can she be so ignorant of etiquette? What is the general's intention in saying this?"

She is no longer calm and indifferent, but a little more cold and fierce.The clear phoenix eyes were dotted with ice, as if they were about to turn into ice skates and shoot through Yao Yuanzheng's body.

As soon as the words fell, the hall was quiet, and the landing could be heard.Appreciation flashed across Xiao Mingjing's eyes, and Luo Yunzhi glared at Yao Yuanzheng angrily, as if he wanted to cut him into pieces.

However, Xiao Moli's expression suddenly darkened, his eyes were full of anger, and his hand holding the wine glass tightened slightly.It's a pity that a smile flashed in her eyes, she really wanted to be strong, and Yao Yuanzheng's move was clearly in her favor, but she wanted to belittle Yao Yuanzheng verbally.

When the atmosphere was awkward, Ling Jueshang suddenly stood up, before he could say anything.Concubine Yao, who was seated above, spoke. She looked at Luo Qingyan with a smile on her face and said, "Why should Princess Li be angry? Last year, Princess Li shocked everyone with her mausoleum song. General Yao just wanted to show off Princess Li's demeanor that day. Believe me Not only General Yao, but many people here are very appreciative of Princess Li's talent." Her seductive eyes were full of smiles, but her eyes were full of cold persecution and ridicule.

"Last year, I saw that Princess Li's piano skills are superb, and I like it very much. Princess Li plays the piano well. It can be seen that the prime minister and his wife must have taught them carefully. It must be proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I don't know if Princess Li is giving Ben Gong some face, so that Ben Gong can feast his eyes again."

Concubine Yao's words are good, first give Luo Qingyan a high hat, and bring in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion.Let Luo Qingyan have no reason to refuse, and if she doesn't perform well, her parents will be hurt.

Luo Qingyan sneered inwardly, she really deserves to be a woman in the deep palace!

She raised her head, and took a deep look at Concubine Yao Gui with her phoenix eyes, and a captivating smile curled up at the corner of her mouth.Concubine Yao's pupils shrank when she saw it, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

Luo Qing's eyes that looked like a smile but not a smile glanced over the expressions of worry, sneer, sympathy or disdain, and suddenly smiled softly, the laughter was like pearls falling on a jade plate, and the sound was clear and crisp.That peerless Tsinghua's face showed a dazzling brilliance.

Under the dumbfounded eyes of everyone, she walked slowly to the center.The delicate figure has a straight back and a noble and elegant expression, which makes people dare not look directly at her, but can only look up.

"The imperial concubine really listens to all directions, even the teachings of my Luojia family are clear." Yao Guifei's face froze, and a fierce gleam flashed in her eyes.

"However?" Luo Qingyan's voice changed, and Qingyue said: "What you said just now makes sense, the great general returned from a great victory, and the whole country celebrates. Although I am a little girl, I am not worthy of any big event, but this is a sign Congratulations, but you can do your best." She smiled calmly, with a lazy and casual demeanor.

"However, these piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings have always been used to cultivate sentiments. General Yao is out all year round, holding a sword in his hand, so he probably won't like these arty things."

As soon as these words fell, the faces of all the women in the field changed, especially those women who had performed talents just now, there was shame and anger in their eyes.Doesn't Luo Qingyan's words mean that they deliberately show off and have no shame?
Yao Yuanzheng's face was slightly gloomy, what Luo Qingyan said was that he was just a reckless man who only knew how to kill with a sword but didn't understand the elegant things, and called him brave and foolish.Suddenly the corner of his mouth curled up, and he looked at Luo Qingyan playfully.

"Princess Li is really different!" The wine glass in her hand moved closer to her lips, a dark, deep and strange light brewed in her eyes.This woman, he really underestimated her.

"Don't dare!" Luo Qing's face was indifferent, with a warm smile on his lips.

"Then..." Yao Yuanzheng raised his voice, his eyes full of coldness and arrogance. "Presumably Princess Li's performance must be ingenious and stunning."

Luo Qingyan smiled softly, "Ingenuity can't be called ingenuity, it's just a trick of the class, please give me a lot of advice from the general."

As soon as she finished speaking, someone brought up a sword immediately.The doubts in the eyes of the daughters of the four ministers also became clear.

Xiao Ziqi stared at the sword, his eyes darkened slightly, and there were waves flying in his eyes.The hand holding the wine glass slowly tightened, and the thin lips were already pursed into a straight line.He glanced at Xiao Ziqiu who was beside him, and saw the sudden sadness and helplessness in his eyes.His eyes flickered slightly, and the day finally came.Putting down the wine glass indifferently, he lowered his head, the corner of his mouth was full of bitter taste.

Luo Qingyan took the sword and glanced at Yao Yuanzheng.

"My concubine has heard for a long time that General Yao is highly skilled in martial arts and has few opponents. Today, my concubine will perform a sword dance, and I ask General Yao to give me some advice."
