Princess Regent

Chapter 67
Shangguan Erlan ate the whole bowl of noodles, heaved a sigh of relief, and turned to look at the two people around him.

"Hey, Mother." Seeing that Shangguan Erlan had finally finished eating, Xiao Lezi simply handed over the chopsticks and spoon in his hand to Shangguan Erlan. After all, it was difficult for him to let him eat a bowl of hot noodles as a child.

Shangguan Erlan took it, she was in a good mood when she was full, and treated Xiaolezi with much more enthusiasm.After feeding Xiaolezi a few mouthfuls, she finally looked at Xi Jinye, pretending to be plain and asking, "Why did the regent choose to eat noodles like this princess today?" It's the best, actually stooping over to eat her noodles, huh?Can she feel honored?

"Noodles are good." Xi Jinye replied.

It's just that it's hard to say whether the noodles are good or the person who cooks the noodles is good.

Xiao Lezi also nodded, "My mother-in-law makes the best and most delicious food!"

"Huh? The mouth is so sweet, what did you eat?" Shangguan Erlan pointed over meaningfully, causing Xiao Lezi to giggle happily, "Eat my mother's noodles!"

"It turned out to be a cannibal with a short mouth." Shangguan Erlan finally understood, the boy also understands the ways of the world, yes, it was all taught by his father.She secretly glanced at Xi Jinye and smiled.

Except for Xiao Lezi who couldn't eat a big bowl of noodles by himself, both Shangguan Erlan and Xi Jinye ate up all the noodles in the bowl, but Xi Jinye just couldn't eat enough from the bowl, so he took another bowl with Shangguan Erlan .She simply gave him all the rest of the pot, and the latter also ate it up, she was very satisfied.

After serving the belly, the sun has set, and the palace banquet is about to begin.

"Let's go." Xi Jinye got up and said, Shangguan Erlan's noodles today can be said to whet his appetite, he ate a lot, and he should drink less for a while.

Another main reason is that Xi Jinye had the idea of ​​asking Shangguan Erlan to cook him a supper after the palace banquet. This woman's craftsmanship is really good!
"My mother's hug." Xiao Lezi sat on the chair and stretched out her hand to Shangguan Erlan.

She didn't put on shoes for Xiao Lezi just now, but after thinking about it, she picked him up and followed Xi Jinye all the way to the main hall while talking.

They didn't know that behind them, there was a line of sight staring at them all the time.

Li Mengxuan learned from the maid that the regent had gone to the small kitchen, and planned to meet the regent somewhere, but unexpectedly, she saw a scene that was enough to break her heart!The regent and that Chu Xianglan actually wanted to dine at the same table as a family, and they still ate the cheap noodles!
She gritted her silver teeth with hatred, and stared fiercely at Shangguan Erlan's figure, becoming more and more ruthless!

Back in the main hall, the maids came up in turn to fix Shangguan Erlan's dress and comb her hair. Xi Jinye was also being changed by the maids. Xiao Lezi, it was the easiest for him. He put on his outer robe and shoes, and sat down Looking at Shangguan Erlan from the imperial concubine chair, she was afraid that she would disappear if she turned around.

It is said that women are troublesome, but it is not true, Xi Jinye's clothes are all put on, and Shangguan Erlan's head is only half done.

When her hair is coffined and tied with a few hairpins, the outfit will be considered complete.

Although the palace banquet is a formal banquet, it mainly pays attention to a comfortable one.Shangguan Erlan was only dressed in red gauze, her hair was puffed up, and a few hairpins were stuck in her hair, she looked like a lazy beauty.

She got up, stretched her waist, ignored the astonishment of the people around her, smiled and walked towards Xiao Lezi who was so surprised that she opened her mouth, "Okay, we can go now."

"En." Xi Jinye put down the book in his hand, glanced at Shangguan Erlan, nodded in satisfaction, got up and walked ahead.

Xiao Lezi obediently ran up to grab Shangguan Erlan's two fingers, followed her footsteps and swaggered out of the main hall gate.

Outside the hall, Li Mengxuan was dressed in a white dress, with golden, red and green hairpins all over his head. At first glance, he looked like a lady from the nobility.But as soon as Shangguan Erlan walked out, she was instantly compared to her luxury.

A lazy beauty with a proud body, she can make people's eyes unable to move away from her figure just by standing there and doing nothing.One is dressed in a luxurious way, but this is not the case, this "nobility" is dressed up, it is entrusted by the golden hairpin and silk, and the person looks pale.Compared with Shangguan Erlan's pure natural temperament, she looks lonely and vulgar.

"Follow." Shangguan Erlan led Xiao Lezi past Li Mengxuan, and said something indifferent, without giving him a look.

With the Prince Regent present, Li Mengxuan didn't dare to make mistakes, so he had to answer with his head bowed respectfully: "Yes."

Following behind Shangguan Erlan, watching her take Xiao Lezi for a few quick steps and then grabbing the regent's arm with one hand, the two walked side by side, plus there was a Xiao Lezi beside her, this scene became Li Mengxuan's favorite again. hatred!
She stared fiercely at Shangguan Erlan's back, wishing she could immediately stare at a blood hole from her back!
damn it!How dare she walk side by side with the regent, what is she!What is she, Chu Xianglan? !

No matter how much she hated Li Mengxuan at this moment, she dared not rush up to trouble Shangguan Erlan. She turned her head and gave the maid beside her a look.It's just that the maid didn't rush to follow, but turned around and walked in another direction.

The royal banquets are usually hosted by the emperor, and this time the envoys from the other four major countries were visiting, and they were given gifts and tributes by the Lianyang Kingdom.It's just that the current emperor of Lianyang Kingdom has seldom appeared in front of people since he ascended the throne. All the affairs of Lianyang Kingdom are handled by the Regent, so it can be said that Lianyang Kingdom is in the hands of the Regent.

The emperor of Lianyang Kingdom was named Xi Jinyao, and before succeeding to the throne, he was the second prince of Lianyang Kingdom, and Xi Jinye was the fourth.Although the emperor bears the title of emperor, the power is in the hands of the regent, who has been detained and trapped in the palace by the regent all year round.Many people don't understand that the king regent can dethrone the emperor and ascend the throne himself, but after many years, he has been the king regent himself. Under his rule, the country of Lianyang is safe and peaceful.

As for the emperor, he is rarely mentioned, even if he does not exist.Although Xi Jinye is the regent, many people have long respected him as the Dark Emperor, and he also accepted the title of Dark Emperor.

At this point, Shangguan Erlan couldn't help but think, isn't this Xi Jinye a sullen man?Otherwise, why would he let the upright emperor not be a dark emperor?

The reason why the dark emperor is called the dark emperor is because he is not an emperor, but holds real power.

Tsk, it seems that she knows a little bit why Xi Jinye didn't take the throne anymore. How cool it is to be the dark emperor, much more enjoyable than being the emperor!
When she and Xi Jinye walked up to the high seats set up in the front hall to enjoy the kneeling of ministers and Shi Chen, the corner of Shangguan Erlan's mouth twitched, she was sure that Xi Jinye was a coquette! !

Li Mengxuan didn't dare to go up to the high seat, walked to the bottom closest to the high seat, and knelt down with everyone.Of course, it was not Shangguan Erlan who knelt in her heart, but the regent.

The envoys and princes of the other four major powers did not bow down directly, but bowed slightly as a salute.

"Get up, all the envoys of the four countries are invited to a banquet today. You don't have to be strict." Xi Jinye said, holding Shangguan Erlan's hand and sitting in the two seats that had been set up.

"Give me a seat!"

The envoys expressed their thanks one after another, and the palace servants led them into the seat nearest to the high position and sat upright.

Li Mengxuan was arranged in the second row behind the minister, sitting with the minister's wives.Facing the inquiries from the wives, she secretly looked at the high-spirited Shangguan Erlan in the high position, and swallowed her hatred in her heart.

The fifth prince of Huanyue Kingdom, Yunzui, stared at Shangguan Erlan, who was in the high position, with a smile that was not a smile. He was thinking of some tricks to fix this stinky woman who dared to molested him!
Yun Xiao turned his head and saw Yun Zui's eyes were on a high position, he took advantage of the situation and looked at Guan Erlan's face again, his heart suddenly felt sudden, but he didn't know why.He had no choice but to look away, and turned to Nalan'an diagonally opposite.

Seeing that she was also looking at Shangguan Erlan with searching eyes, he was suddenly surprised.

There are only two positions in the high position, Xi Jinye and Shangguan Erlan are sitting, and the little fun is gone.Shangguan Erlan saw that there was an empty seat next to her, and she knew it was reserved for him. She pointed to that seat and said, "Go, your seat is there."

Xiao Lezi turned her head to look, dissatisfied and wanted to squeeze into Shangguan Erlan's arms in front of everyone, "Where you go, you want to be here."

"Don't mess around." Xi Jinye said calmly.

Normally, Xiao Lezi would have been obedient and sat down below, but today, he has a wife!Still afraid of you?He ignored Xi Jinye, insisted on squeezing into Shangguan Erlan's arms, pouted his mouth, and looked like he would cry if you didn't hug me.

Shangguan Erlan couldn't help but roll his eyes in public, he waved helplessly, and said to the palace: "Put a seat here, and he will sit here." This little guy, why didn't he guess that he was so clingy earlier!Can't shake it off.

Xiao Lezi got the position and could rely on his mother-in-law to do it, and he became obedient.He knew that if he was disobedient, his father would probably be sentenced to death.

Seeing Xi Jinlin below, he smiled in surprise.

"Hehe, I heard earlier that the country of Lianyang is safe and peaceful, and the people live together happily, but I didn't expect that the regent, the princess and the young master are the models, they can be called model families!" The family of three praised with a smile.

The words of the envoy also aroused the support of the other three countries. Only the ministers and families of Lianyang Kingdom who knew the "truth" smiled awkwardly, and the most embarrassing one was none other than the Chu family.model?Model family?This slap was done quietly, but its strength broke the Chu family's white teeth!Who is Chu Xianglan in Lianyang Kingdom?Such a person is worthy of being the regent?Is she worthy to be a member of Lianyang Country's model family?

"Damn Chu Xianglan, why don't you just stay in that broken courtyard and stand out!" Chu Xiangliu said bitterly, and the Chu family next to her could hear it clearly.

Xi Yaoyun patted Chu Xiangliu's hand to tell her not to get too excited.

Chu Zhenxuan turned his head to the side, and said: "I'm in charge of your words and deeds." The tone was very light, but very veiled, he warned Chu Xiangliu to let her know.No matter how bad Chu Xianglan is, she is still the regent princess. As long as the regent likes her, she will not be allowed to make irresponsible remarks!
Chu Xiangliu didn't dare not listen to Chu Zhenxuan, so she had to give the woman in the high position a hard look, and drank the wine on the table as if venting her anger.

Facing the compliment, Shangguan Erlan was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and smiled faintly, "Thank you for the envoy's compliment, this model family, my princess is willing to get it." After she finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows and smiled flamboyantly.

"That's it, that's it." The envoy smiled and left.

Really thick-skinned!Yun Zui hooked his lips, and asked in surprise, "Eh? Regent Princess, Xiao Wang has a question, I don't know if I should ask it or not." That's what he said, but his expression was quite brilliant, with elated.

Shangguan Erlan saw that the little brother next door was asking herself, so she also smiled, and said: "If you have a question, you should ask it. This is called not being ashamed to ask your subordinates. But knowing that this question is not appropriate to ask, you still want to ask it, huh? This princess is going to doubt your intentions." With this expression and demeanor, it is clear that he wants to set her up, isn't it?

Could it be that she has an "I'm an idiot" face?Why does it seem like everyone likes to tease her?

Shangguan Erlan was feeling sad again, there was no other way, it was indeed an eyesore for a person like her to live in this world, she was smart and capable, tsk, blocked the way of many people.It would be strange if he didn't hate her to death!

Geniuses are indeed envied and lonely.

Shangguan Erlan's narcissism has gone up to a higher level.

Yun Zui didn't like Shangguan Erlan's set, he was used to domineering in Huanyue Kingdom with his Three Emperor Brothers.She wouldn't let him speak, but he just wanted to!He sat in a straight posture and asked solemnly: "Princess, Xiao Wang just heard rumors that although you are a princess, you have a waste physique and no fighting spirit to protect yourself. Ah, there must be no secret about this issue, Xiao Wang. Naturally, this is not what Xiao Wang wants to ask, Wangfei, you have no virtue or talent, how can you take on the role of regent princess? Or is it only the princess of Lianyang Kingdom who is allowed to be a waste?"

As soon as Yun Zui finished speaking, everyone in the hall changed their expressions, as if they were facing a formidable enemy!
