The emperor's husband wants to hug

Chapter 138 Are You Back?
"That's inevitable."

Hearing Hua Mujin's question, Shangguan Yi wanted to leave, but sat back.

He took a sip of the tea poured from the green bamboo, looked at the flowers and hibiscus and said, "Although the southern country is small, it is far superior to other countries in terms of economy and trade. It can be regarded as the richest country. Other countries will send people."

Upon hearing this, Hua Hibiscus became interested.

She walked over and sat next to Bai Zhanke, and asked, "You mean, people from other countries want to cling to this national code in the southern country and ask for a piece of it?"

Shangguan Yi nodded, agreeing with Hua Mujin's words.

"However, not all of them are here to ask for a piece of the pie. There are a few small foreign countries that have been friends with the Southern Kingdom for a hundred years. Their purpose of coming is pure, except to congratulate the national code. However, the purpose of the Amaterasu Kingdom sending people here is not It would be so simple."

Hua Hibiscus really didn't understand the affairs between countries, but after hearing what Shangguan Yi said, she always felt that something big would happen when she came to the southern country this time.

"By the way, what is the Nanguo Guodian celebrating?"

For a long time, Hua Mujin never asked what Guodian meant.

Literally, she can only understand that it is a grand ceremony of a country, but she doesn't quite understand what it is.

"You don't even know that?"

Frowning, Shangguan Yi showed dislike for Hua Mujin.

"You never said that, how do I know?"

"Ping'er sees that you are very smart, but you don't even know the 'Guodian'? You should ask him, I don't even bother to talk to you."

With that said, Shangguan Yi stood up, and this time he really left without stopping.

Turning her head, Hua Mujin looked at Bai Zhanke and raised her eyebrows, intending to ask him what "Guo Dian" meant.

"The so-called National Ceremony is a century-old grand ceremony. Once in a hundred years, I pray to the heavens that the family and the country will not be destroyed and will last forever in the world."

century?

A grand ceremony held only once in 100 years?

"Then isn't it rare for us to be able to participate in the Southern Kingdom National Ceremony?"

"It is."

"Then how many national ceremonies are held in Nanguo? It won't be the first, right?"

She remembered that the Zhou Dynasty lasted the longest in history, about 800 years ago, and was later destroyed by the Qin State.

If calculated according to the national ceremony of this other world, it can only hold eight national ceremony at most.

Think about it, maybe some people have never participated in the national ceremony in their whole life, right?

"No, it's the seventh national code."

"The seventh time?"

Hua Mujin was shocked by Bai Zhanke.

Unexpectedly, a small southern country has existed for such a long time, which is a bit unbelievable.

Looking at Bai Zhanke, she asked tentatively, "Then, what about Huanyue Kingdom?"

Looking up, he looked at her and moved his lips after a long time.

"After 40 years, it's the third time."

Hua Hibiscus is a little unbelievable. The Huanyue Kingdom can be considered a big country, but it has only existed for more than 200 years, which is more than half worse than the Southern Kingdom.

It is unreasonable for a small country to survive for a long time, and to survive in the world among so many big countries. No one dares to destroy it.

"This southern country, isn't it..."

"Jin'er, you don't need to know too much."

Hua Mujin just asked again, but was interrupted by Bai Zhanke.

Seeing his somewhat cold expression, Hua Mujin knew that there were some things she shouldn't know.

So, I didn't ask again.

The sky gradually darkened.

The Nanwang Palace was brightly lit, and there were busy figures of palace people everywhere.

The reception banquet was arranged in the North Hall of the Royal Palace, which is not a big but not a small place.

Hua Mujin and the others were led by the palace servants and went.

Halfway through the walk, Shangguan Yi suddenly stopped and looked at Hua Mujin.

"The general suddenly remembered something, should you cover up your face?"

Frowning, Hua Hibiscus was a little displeased.

She asked: "It's not that I can't see people, why should I cover it?"

"Did you forget that when the prince saw you, he said that you look like a person? If you cause any unnecessary trouble because of your face, wouldn't it destroy the friendly relationship between the two countries?"

"..."

Hua Hibiscus was speechless.

Feelings, she came to this southern country, really can't see people?
"Are you too sensitive? It's just a resemblance, but it's not. Besides, I came to the southern country to check the identity of my mother. If someone knows my mother, wouldn't it be good?"

Hua Mujin doesn't think that the relationship between the two countries will be affected by a face that looks like someone.

If she is really affected, then she will question why this southern country that has existed for 700 years has existed for so long.

"Jin'er, you should wear a veil."

"What?"

Hua Hibiscus looked at Bai Zhanke in disbelief, never expecting him to say the same.

"I don't wear it. If you really think that I will affect the relationship between the two countries, why don't I go? Luzhu, let's go back to the West Palace."

Glancing at the two men, Hua Mujin just felt that they were inexplicable.

Turning around, I want to go back the same way.

However, she was held back by Bai Zhanke.

"I don't want other people to look at you with strange eyes."

Originally, Hua Mujin thought that Bai Zhanke had the same idea as Shangguan Yi, but he didn't expect that his idea was to not allow other men to look at him.

This is in line with his domineering.

In the end, Hua Hibiscus put on the veil and attended the so-called reception banquet.

"Ma'am, this is..."

As soon as he entered the main hall, the prince came forward and looked at the veil on Hua Mujin's face, feeling a little puzzled.

Shangguan Yi smiled, and explained for Hua Mujin: "Your Majesty occasionally has a cold, and she is afraid of passing it on to others, so she put on a veil, isn't it wrong?"

The prince shook his head and smiled lightly.

"Of course not, I would like to invite Huan Yue Huang and Empress to be seated."

Bai Zhanke and Hua Mujin were arranged to be at the front, and next to them was the prince.

"I heard that Heng'er went to disturb the empress today. Heng'er is young, if he behaves rudely to the empress, my highness will apologize to the empress on his behalf."

Under the veil, Hua Hibiscus hooked the corners of her lips.

"The crown prince is serious. Heng'er is smart and cute. I like it very much."

"That's good."

"Your Majesty, drive back to..."

At this moment, the eunuch's voice sounded, and everyone present stood up and looked towards the dragon chair at the top of the stairs.

She has seen Hua Mujin, the king of the southern kingdom, and she is very curious about the only queen.

The moment she saw the queen walking out, Hua Mujin frowned.

"Sit down, everyone, today is Emperor Huanyue's welcome banquet, all lovers must accompany you, but don't let Emperor Huanyue think that we are rude in the southern country."

Sitting down, Hua Mujin's eyes still stayed on the queen.

Because this queen really surprised her. A woman who is over [-] years old doesn't even see a few wrinkles on her face, and her facial features are extremely beautiful. She really wants to ask her about this childlike face. How is it maintained.

"Play music, dance..."

The banquets of the ancients were actually very boring.

Apart from singing and dancing, there is nothing new.

However, at the moment when the music started, Hua Mujin was stunned.

Then, she stood up abruptly, attracting everyone's attention.

"Jin'er?"

Turning around, she looked at the Southern King and back, Wei Fu saluted, and asked: "Your Majesty, Queen, may I ask who composed the song "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix"?"

Hua Hibiscus is from the Conservatory of Music, and the master is also Guzheng.

When I first started learning, the first piece the teacher taught was "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix".

Moreover, this is a song that only exists in the present.

"You, the concubine of Emperor Huanyue?"

Looking at the flower hibiscus, the king asked in a deep voice.

"She has always been so unruly, which made the king laugh."

Bai Zhanke got up, pulled Hua Mujin to sit down.

Hua Mujin's actions made the dinner silent, and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs looked at her with strange eyes.

"Sister, so you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time."

Heng'er suddenly appeared, ran up to Hua Mujin, and looked at her with big eyes blinking.

"Sister, what are you doing wearing a veil? You are so beautiful, wouldn't it be a pity to wear a veil? Let me take it off for you."

As he said that, Heng'er stretched out his hand and tore off the veil on Hua Mujin's face.

When the veil was torn off, Hua Mujin's face was revealed in everyone's eyes.

"Qing, Qingcheng..."

The king and queen stood up from the dragon and phoenix chairs at the same time, with shock and disbelief mixed on their faces.

"Qingcheng, are you back? Is it really you?"

Holding the hem of her skirt, the queen walked straight down the steps and came to Hua Mujin.

The nanny behind her wanted to help her, but she couldn't walk as fast as her, so she could only nervously follow behind her.

"Queen, I, I am not..."

"I already know that you will definitely come back, as long as you come back, as long as you come back."

Approaching, the queen did not intend to listen to Hua Mujin's words at all, and hugged her directly.

She was a little overwhelmed, turned her head to look at Bai Zhanke at the side, and asked him for help.

"Queen, she is my concubine, not the Qingcheng you mentioned. Please let the queen let her go."

"No, she is the allure of this palace, and she will never be wrong."

Loosening the flower hibiscus, the queen stretched out her hand to caress the flower hibiscus's face, her eyes were doting and distressed.

"She is exactly the same as Qingcheng. She is the Qingcheng of my palace. She is. If you don't believe me, look, there is a peony birthmark on her arm."

The queen said excitedly, she raised Hua Mujin's hand, and lifted her sleeves up.

However, when the sleeves were lifted, Hua Mujin's arm was flawless, let alone a peony birthmark.

"No, no? Why, no?"

"Queen, she is not the Qingcheng you said, I think you have misunderstood the person."

Looking at the excited queen, Bai Zhanke pulled Hua Mujin behind him to protect her.

"Queen, don't get excited. She is indeed similar to Huang Jie, but she is not Huang Jie. Calm down."

"Grandma Huang, what's wrong with you? Don't scare Heng'er."

Looking at the queen, Heng'er's eyes welled up with tears.

He only felt that it was because he tore off the veil from his sister's face that the queen became like this.
