Chapter 42 The Gap
"Second brother, today is the reception banquet for Prince Liang's son, you should hurry to the banquet." As soon as Emperor Tianqi finished speaking, a warm and soft voice came from his left.The voice was like a spring breeze, blowing into people's hearts through the eardrums with a gentle warmth.

Hearing this, Huo Ruge behind Murong Heng followed the sound subconsciously, and saw a man wearing a bright yellow brocade robe with a pattern of golden dragons playing with pearls embroidered on his chest slowly moving his lips.The man's face was like a jade crown, and he wore a golden crown with hair tied on his head. The golden crown was adorned with twelve oriental beads, each of which exuded a lustrous luster, which complemented his handsome appearance with delicate features.It's just that the color of her lips was slightly lighter than ordinary people's, which made her a little absent-minded for a while.

Sensing Huo Ruge's gaze towards the prince, Murong Heng's complexion remained unchanged, and the mocking smile on the corners of his bright red lips remained the same, he said: "Our Tianqi Kingdom has always been hospitable, since it is the reception banquet for Prince Liang's son, if we don't Wouldn't it be impolite to treat you well!" He said, he let go of Huo Ruge, and slapped each other's palms twice, and immediately after that, ten court ladies walked in from the gilded gate of Jingyang Palace. They stood in two rows in the middle of the spacious hall behind Murong Heng, and each of them held a large black tray with golden lacquer depicting the pattern of flowing clouds in their hands. On the tray, there were still steaming steamers.

"Second brother!"

"Second brother!"

At the same time, the prince Murong Jue and the sixth prince Murong Qi both stood up, while the Emperor Tianqi who was sitting in the middle of the two princes, whose face was sinking like water, was staring coldly at Murong Heng with a pair of dragon eyes.On his wrinkled forehead, blue veins can be seen faintly.

Seeing the big eyes and small eyes of this big family, blushing and thick neck, the cold sweat on Huo Ruge's back was breaking out again and again. Although she definitely came to repay the debt of love sincerely, she definitely didn't want to pay off because of Murong Heng. That pervert who was different from ordinary people was implicated for no reason and risked his life.How unjust it is!

The resplendent and bright palace is so quiet that you can hardly even hear your breathing. All the ministers buried their heads deeply, like ostriches trying to hide their heads in the sand. They are really naive!
Suddenly, at this very moment, Feng Xuanji, the heir son of King Liang who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised her eyebrows that slanted into her temples, stood up and bowed to Emperor Tianqi, and said in a tunnel: "Don't blame your majesty, Prince Jing has a heart. How can the son have no intentions. If so, could it be that the face of your country is brushed off, and the diplomatic relations between the two countries are hurt."

After hearing this, Emperor Tianqi's gloomy and dark complexion gradually began to ease, and even the dark and sullen face began to break down into strange expressions of uneven shades.

Seeing that Emperor Tianqi's expression had softened, the crown prince and the sixth prince returned to their seats, and all the ministers were slightly relieved.Only Murong Heng still maintained his previous arrogant appearance, as if he was not under the pressure of the emperor at all, that calm and calm appearance was enough for Emperor Tianqi to punish him for ten or eight serious crimes.

Swallowing his saliva hard, Huo Ruge stared at Murong Heng who didn't change his expression, he had already cursed him no less than a thousand times in his heart, even including his uncertain emperor father, It was poked all over with a needle.

"You made the prince laugh..." After a long while, he forced out some gentle words. Emperor Tianqi's eyes only stayed on Feng Xuanji for a while, then turned to Murong Heng again, and continued in a deep voice: "You What have you prepared? So that I can open my eyes too."

Hearing the sound, Murong Heng's eyes, which were as dark as the night sky with a faint blue halo, lit up slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.He strolled up to a court lady who was closest to him, lifted the top cover of the steamer, and shouted loudly: "Tianqi Country's special product, corrupt official-flavored buns with human flesh, is it a great gift?"

Hearing the words "Human flesh buns", including Emperor Tianqi, all the people in the palace, whether it was the battle-tested general or the concubine who lived in the deep palace for a long time, were all overwhelmed with panic. .What's more, several officials who had visited Prince Jing's mansion couldn't bear it for a while, and retched on the main hall.

Staring at the fluffy, white and plump steamed buns, Huo Ruge felt a severe spasm in his stomach.Looking at Murong Heng's thick black phoenix eyes full of evil light, her good impression of all kinds of meat, cabbage and barbecued pork buns in her life was destroyed by this pervert in an instant, leaving no scum left.

"Prince Jing!" Forcibly squeezed out two words from between his teeth, Emperor Tianqi was trying his best to control the anger that had already been roiling wildly in his internal organs, and a pair of old but stern dragon eyes almost spewed fire.

"Human flesh buns, it seems that this son is indeed highly valued by your country." Suddenly, when the conflict between Emperor Tianqi and Murong Heng, the old and the young, was on the verge of breaking out, Feng Xuanji, the son of Prince Liang, was a little sinister and arrogant. The arrogant voice sounded neither salty nor dull, like a splash of warm and cool water, directly extinguishing the ferocious anger in Emperor Tianqi's heart.

After hearing this, Emperor Tianqi's dark gray dragon beard trembled slightly, then he straightened his lips, and after a long time, he looked away from Murong Heng.

Seeing this, the sharp-eyed and quick-talking national teacher immediately yelled at the maids who were shaking like chaff but did not dare to throw away the tray: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you step back!"

The voice of the national teacher is not loud, but it has an irresistible sharpness. The voice erupting from behind the wooden mask seems to have a more breathtaking penetrating power than the enraged Emperor Tianqi.

After the sound of clothes rubbing against each other and the sound of messy footsteps, the main hall of Jingyang Palace suddenly returned to calm.

Undisguisedly, he swept his dark blue eyes towards the national teacher who was covering his face with a mask, and Murong Heng suddenly showed a faint smile, then looked at Liang Wang's son Feng Xuanji, nodded and said: " As long as the son likes it."

After finishing speaking, he turned around, held Huo Ruge's wrist again, and took his seat.

And at this moment, Huo Ruge caught a glimpse of a somewhat familiar pretty figure.The owner of that figure is none other than the Princess Mingyue disguised as a white-faced scholar she met not long ago who was kicked out by the bustard of the No. [-] brothel in the capital.At the same time, Princess Mingyue, who is wearing brocade clothes and jingling rings, seems to have noticed her gaze. Although the eyes of the two have quickly separated the moment they collided, Princess Mingyue's eyes are as clear as water. Still couldn't restrain a trace of shock.

On the dragon chair, Emperor Tianqi saw that Murong Heng's face was pale, as if he would not cause any more trouble, so he took a deep breath, cleared his throat, raised the golden wine glass in front of him with both hands, and said: "I am here today The banquet, firstly, is to welcome the prince of Liang; secondly, to hope that the two countries will have a good relationship from generation to generation and never go to war." After saying that, Emperor Tianqi leaned back, and then turned the empty golden cup in front of everyone. The innate imperial spirit is very comparable.
