Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 363

Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua stood side by side, their faces were both calm, and they looked very similar at first glance.

The third prince was so angry that his chest was stuffy, and his eyes swept over Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi fiercely: "Okay, okay, you are right, I made a big fuss!"

Baili Junyi didn't pay attention to the tone of the third prince's gritted teeth at all. He could use animals to harm others, but it would be a heinous crime for others to fight back. Where did the fallacy come from? Hmph, he just treated others in his own way. If he was injured, he was unlucky!

Baili Jinchuan slowly let go of his clenched hands, the meridians in his body were excruciatingly painful, but there was nothing unusual on his face.

A good New Year's banquet almost became the scene of a murder, Baili Qingcang's brows were almost knotted: "Shut up!"

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua also turned around to salute. Under the cover of their wide sleeves, Shen Ninghua held Baili Jinchuan's hand and quickly wrote a few words on his palm.Baili Junyi focused his eyes and nodded slightly.

On the throne, Baili Junyi rubbed his forehead: "Okay, I will let people check whether these animals have been drugged, so let's put this matter aside for a while, and the good New Year banquet will be disturbed!" The anger in Li Qingcang's heart became more and more vigorous, and he slapped the table in front of him with a slap, which made the hall become more and more silent.

Baili Jinchuan suddenly said: "Father, the performance at this year's banquet is indeed unlucky, but I still suggest that Father should not pursue the faults of a few artists too much."

"Huh? Why is that?"

"Father, in fact, when the third brother was looking for a folk artist to perform for you in the palace, I heard about it. At that time, I also had doubts in my heart, but in the end I still didn't stop the third brother. "

Baili Qingcang lowered his gaze: "Why?"

"Because my son learned that many people were extremely happy when they heard that these artists were going to enter the palace to perform for the father. Many people even cried with joy. They thought that the father was close to the people, which was very different from the previous dynasty. The people explained the attachment of the bereaved family of the previous dynasty. With the fact that the three emperors invited folk artists, the people loved the father's rule even more. If the father disposes of these artists, the people will know that this is their emperor. Dishonored and deserved, I am afraid that I will be sad."

Baili Qingcang pondered, his eyes fell on several trembling entertainers, and a dark light flashed in his eyes: Jin Chuan is right, he may not care about the lives and deaths of these people, but he must care about the thoughts of the people. He had high hopes for the artist's entry into the palace, and there must be many speculations about the tragic ending. It would be better to use this incident to show the royal family's tolerance. Thinking of this, he sighed:

"You all get up, I know you didn't do it on purpose, and the second prince pleaded for you, let's forget about this time, go to the Department of Internal Affairs to collect the reward, and go back to have a good New Year."

"Yes, Caomin and others thank the Lord for your kindness, long live the emperor, long live, long live!" Several artists were grateful, and after three kneelings and nine kowtows to Baili Qingcang, they got up and walked out. Before leaving, they couldn't help being grateful Look at the second prince.

Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes slightly, and a mocking smile flashed in her eyes: The third prince probably made a wedding dress for someone else this time.He called people into the palace to perform. He originally wanted to win a jackpot, but he didn't expect that there was a problem in the middle, and his good performance was disturbed, and he even got dropped because of it.On the contrary, the second prince made favors with a few words. After these artists went out, the second prince's reputation of being considerate and kind-hearted to the common people would soon spread. At that time, the third prince should be even more worried.

At this time, the third prince's face was extremely difficult to see. At this moment, how could he not understand that he had wasted his efforts in vain and helped others increase his reputation!Yin Wu's eyes could not help but fall on Baili Jinchuan, wishing to kill him with his sight!
Baili Jinchuan condensed his face and didn't care about the eyes of the third prince at all: "Father, seeing blood at today's New Year's banquet is an extremely unlucky sign. Father is destined by heaven to protect his body with a golden dragon. Naturally, I am not afraid of the bloodshed, but the common people will inevitably talk about it, and I feel that I should find a way to remedy it."

Baili Qingcang nodded: "You are right, what good idea do you have?"

Baili Jinchuan shook his head slightly: "Reporting to Father, this son-in-law just had this idea, I really didn't think of the specific idea, please forgive me."

Baili Qingcang waved his hand: "You can relieve my father's worries, which has already made me feel extra relieved. Do you have any good ideas?"

Shen Ninghua raised his head and swept over Baili Jinchuan, and when he noticed the return, he lowered his eyes.Baili Jinchuan didn't have an idea, he was afraid that he had already made a plan in his heart, but he didn't speak directly to avoid making the emperor suspicious, so he shirked it. When Baili Qingcang asked the minister's opinion, he could naturally pass the proposal through his confidantes. present.It is really thoughtful to be able to clear one's suspicion without being a rafter.

"Your Majesty, today is the New Year's Eve feast, the last night of last year. What happened today should be last year, not New Year's."

"Oh?" Baili Qingcang's eyes moved slightly when he heard the words. Although this statement is novel, it also makes sense, "Tell me in detail."

"Yes, I obey the order. I believe that although the bloodshed happened today, it happened last year, not the New Year. If this is the case, then just leave it alone. Tomorrow is the New Year. Wouldn't it be better to pray again in the New Year?" it is good?"

"Your Majesty, I agree with what Lord Wang said. The New Year's Eve feast is meant to get rid of the old and usher in the new. Now that it's not over yet, everything happens during the time of getting rid of the old and has nothing to do with welcoming the new. If that's the case, just have a good time. To welcome the new year, we can naturally have a safe and smooth new year."

"Although I said so, the truth is a bit far-fetched, and over the years, the annual banquet is to pray for the New Year. The more safe and smooth the better, but now it has suddenly changed..."

"This is wrong. Since the founding of our dynasty, in order to let the people feel that life has not changed much, many customs and rules have been inherited from the previous dynasty. The same is true for this New Year's Eve feast. The previous emperors were very different, so why not create a new way to welcome the New Year?"

"What you said is justified. Your Majesty is very talented and broad-minded. You shouldn't be troubled by old customs. But all the great emperors in history dare to break old customs and create new rules. My emperor will definitely do this."

"Wei Chen..."

All of a sudden, the court was full of quarrels, and Baili Qingcang listened to the arguments of the people, and his eyes lit up. Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to say that he was old. I used to fight everywhere to stabilize the country, and the means were iron and blood tough enough, but not many people could really be accepted and praised by the people.This time, the right time, place and people are undoubtedly a good opportunity.

Baili Qingcang said: "It's a good idea to get rid of the old and welcome the new, but are there any specific measures, how to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new?"

The ministers below started discussing one after another, and the hall was buzzing.

Suddenly a soft female voice sounded: "Father, although the hall has been tidied up, all the female relatives need to go down to fix their appearance. I wonder if Father can allow us to rest for a while?"

Only then did Baili Qingcang notice the women's side. The commotion just now was too serious. Many people ran away in a hurry and overturned the tables. They spilled dishes, tea and snacks all over their bodies. Some people were accidentally injured. It's time to clean up: "Well, come here, clean up the Xuanhua Palace, and let the female family members clean up and repair it first."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Many female family members could no longer bear the messy dresses, and they were grateful when they heard this, and hurriedly followed the palace staff to Xuanhua Hall.

Yang Yingxue looked at Shen Ninghua, her skirt was stained with blood, but this did not make her look embarrassed at all, but added a bit of gaudy color to the originally dignified and elegant palace dress, making her even more beautiful and flamboyant: "Sister Ninghua, you should clean up too, this skirt..."

Shen Ninghua glanced down at the hem of the skirt, nodded and said, "Okay, thank you cousin for reminding me."

Yang Yingxue smiled, stepped forward to hold her hand, and the two walked out hand in hand, with an extremely intimate attitude.

The discussion in the main hall is still going on. On the side of the Xuanhua Palace, Shen Ninghua and others came to the Xuanhua Palace, and immediately a maid greeted them: "My servant has seen Princess Zhaohua, and the palace has been cleaned up. If there is anything you need, please tell the princess as much as you want." .”

The Xuanhua Palace is said to be a palace, but it is actually a small courtyard. It was originally built for ornamental flowers, so the courtyard is extraordinarily large and has many rooms. Otherwise, so many female relatives would come here one by one to tidy up their dresses and make-up. , I don't know how long it will take.

Shen Ninghua ordered a female officer to come out to maintain order, and chose a room to walk in.Not long after closing the door, Yang Yingxue knocked on the door: "Sister Ninghua, can you open the door?"

"Cousin, but what's the matter?"

Yang Yingxue was a little embarrassed: "Cousin, the rooms are fully arranged, I have no room, but my skirt is really..."

Tea was splashed on her skirt, and it was still dripping down. She really needed to find a place to clean it up immediately.

Shen Ninghua opened the door: "Cousin, come in."

Yang Yingxue smiled gratefully: "Thank you, sister."

The hem of the skirt was already stained with blood and couldn't be cleaned. Shen Ninghua didn't have much to trim if he wanted to.

"Sister Ninghua, you tidy it up so quickly, but this dress of mine is completely ruined..." Yang Yingxue said, almost crying, Da'an Kingdom has extremely strict requirements on etiquette, and she has already become a woman after leaving the court , You must not show your feet during actions, otherwise you will be disobeying women.

"There's nothing to replace here..."

Yang Yingxue bit her lips: "Sister Ninghua, I can't go out like this now, can you trouble me to find someone to go to the gate of the palace to find the maids of the Prince's Mansion, I asked them to prepare dresses, and they are on the carriage."

Shen Ninghua nodded: "Okay, just wait for a while." After she finished speaking, she went out to call for someone.

Yang Yingxue bit her lips and let go of her white teeth slightly, a trace of apology flashed in her eyes: Shen Ninghua, take what you need, don't blame me.
