Playful Queen

Chapter 46

Zi Moyu teased Brother Huang a few more times, but finally felt that it was really boring, so she turned around to find her own seat.

At this moment, Shen Aoyun, who was wearing an iron gray brocade robe and a black belt around his waist, got up and respectfully said: "The final general will see Prince Rui."

"I said Aoyun, why did you become as boring as him after you went to the frontier with Uncle Huang, don't do this with me, I have something to ask you..."

"what's up?"

Zi Moyu approached Ao Yun's ear slowly, and asked: "Zi Xuan has been missing for a long time, have you seen her?"

"Why do you ask me?" Ao Yun frowned when he heard the girl's name, "I have nothing to do with her disappearance, she..."

"The emperor is here..." Ao Yun's words were interrupted by a high-pitched voice, everyone's complexion changed, and they immediately walked out, saying respectfully.

"Everyone, get up." A deep voice sounded slowly from above, and the slightly hoarse voice immediately covered the sky with the heavy power like a sea wave.

Zi Yechen was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe with colorful clouds and dragons. He walked steadily, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry, and walked slowly.

The left and right sides are the masters of the East and West Palaces. Concubine Yun of the Eastern Palace is wearing a pink emerald green smoked sweater, a white pleated skirt scattered with water mist, and a thin pink smoked veil. Natural skin has become the most beautiful scenery, making people forget the always indifferent Concubine Hui beside her.

Shen Aoyun looked at the two of them, his handsome eyebrows were slightly frowned, why didn't Meng Li appear?

"Your Majesty, what are you..." Xi'er asked in puzzlement when she saw the queen stop walking as she was about to reach the banquet hall.

"Your Majesty, if you don't go in, the banquet is about to begin." Xiao Guizi said respectfully at the side, feeling a little anxious in his heart, it's not good to be late.

Meng Li thought about it in her mind, raised her eyes slightly, and said to Xiao Guizi: "Little Guizi, you go in right away and tell the emperor that I am unwell and cannot attend this banquet."

"Your Majesty, aren't you doing well? Why are you..."

"Go as soon as I tell you to go, don't talk so much nonsense!" She weighed it carefully, she can't attend this banquet, and it's the best policy for her not to meet Prince Duan as much as possible, anyway, she also entrusts Dongxigong to take full responsibility for this banquet, she Attendance or not doesn't matter much.

Just when Mengli turned around and was about to turn back, a familiar voice suddenly came from the front, "Li'er?"

Mengli withdrew her thoughts, raised her eyes, and her face gradually became clear and enlarged. Yan Qinghou stopped thinking and stopped.

The empress dowager is dressed in a black robe with a golden crown, her bearing is graceful, and there is still a faint smile on her charming face, but she can't hide the sharpness that flashes from time to time in her eyes, "Aren't you going in?"

Damn it, how did you meet the Queen Mother at this time?Isn't it hard to go even if you want to go?
Mengli's heart wrinkled into a ball, but her usual smile was on her face, "No, I just..."

"Okay, okay, Li'er, since we met, let's go in with Ai's family." The queen mother interrupted Mengli's explanation, but showed a shallow and loving smile, and took her hand, not at all. When she was given any chance to resist, she was led into the banquet hall by the queen mother like a duck on the shelf. Xi'er and Xiao Guizi were immediately relieved when they saw the situation, and hurried to keep up.

Shen Aoyun didn't see the Queen's appearance, so he wanted to ask, but unexpectedly, he was preempted by a deep voice...

"Why don't you see the queen tonight?" Duan Wang slightly raised his black jade-like eyes, and asked without emotion.

As soon as these words came out, the officials and soldiers below were discussing one after another.

"Why isn't the queen here?"

"This is too outrageous, how can the emperor wait for the queen?"

Zi Yechen frowned, and her originally good mood fell instantly. Doesn't Mengli know that tonight is an important banquet?If you don't show up at this time, is it to embarrass him?Seeing the situation, Yun Xi bowed her body, looked at King Duan with a pair of beautiful eyes like water, and said softly: "The Empress is still dressing up, she will be here in a while."

As soon as these words fell, there was a communication at the door...

"The queen mother is here, the queen is here..."

Mengli was dragged in by the Queen Mother.

"My son, pay respects to the queen mother." The emperor took a step forward to welcome the queen mother, and cast a cold glance at the woman beside the queen mother.

Mengli met those icy eyes, and immediately withdrew her gaze, Fushen said: "My concubine pays my respects to the emperor."

"My minister kowtowed to the queen mother, and the queen is a thousand years old."

"Yingxuan kowtowed to see the queen mother." But she disdained Mengli, from the moment she came in, those eyes were like a cold knife, ready to cut her into pieces at any time.

Mengli avoided seeing her, her heart was already beating extremely hard, because she could feel an unbearable oppressive force restraining her out of breath, after all, even she was ashamed to hear about it, Mengli, you How many earth-shattering one-time confessions are left to give her time to figure out how to deal with it.

At this time, the queen mother waved her hand, "Get up." Then she took Mengli's hand again, with a relieved smile on her face, and said, "The queen is really considerate, knowing that Ai's family is unwell, she specially went to the Compassion Palace to accompany her. The Ai family came together, but the old bones of the Ai family were delayed, well, this is also the time, let the banquet begin."

The queen mother's words calmed down the doubts in everyone's mind.

Zi Yechen didn't say anything anymore, and looked at Concubine Yun gently, "Yun'er, let's start."

Concubine Yun's elegant blessing body nodded slightly towards Eunuch Hai, only to hear a high-pitched voice: "The banquet begins!"

The sound of silk and bamboo musical instruments sounded immediately, and the maids in palace uniforms entered from both sides one after another, continuously like flowing water, and each of them was holding various delicacies in their hands, and put them on the table one by one.

Zi Yingxuan's eyes were dark and indifferent, before taking his seat, he stared fiercely at the face that seemed to have changed a little, snorted coldly, turned around to take his seat, flicked his sleeves, and brought a trace of coldness wind.

Mengli was frozen by his gaze, and a strange emotion sublimated in her heart, which not only made her frown, but then glanced at her face, and saw her brother's concerned eyes. Such tenderness was not like an experience at all. The general on the battlefield, although his eyes are gentle, but they are no longer full of luster because of the loss of his true love. Thinking of this, Mengli actually feels a little bit sad. Brother is so infatuated?
A hand was placed on her shoulder suddenly, and a deep voice sounded from her right side: "Sit down yet?"

Meng Li didn't speak, took a deep breath, and sat down by the emperor's side.
