The Fox Comes from Outer World

With that, I turned around and left, continuing to let the palace maids dress me up.

Imperial Concubine Yi and the other Imperial Concubine Yi's faces revealed an awkward expression as they were frozen on the spot. Finally, Imperial Concubine Yi smiled and said, "Little sister Chan Fei is also good for Little sister Bai Jun. However, as the ambassador, the rules are naturally different from those of others. Little Sister Chan, don't be too fussy. "

These words of hers meant that she was being a peacemaker. Chan Concubine immediately understood the meaning behind those words and shut her mouth, not saying a word. Naturally, I borrowed the ladder and left the stage. I didn't want to go head to head with the imperial concubine anymore. After all, he had just arrived and there was no one here to help him. Although he did not wish to stay here for a long time, he still had to live his days.

I invited Senior Concubine Yi to the court for tea. The Chan Consort was bitter on the side. She couldn't leave, nor could she stay. In the end, she found an excuse and sent her away.

I know that Fei Fei must hate me so much in her heart. However, there was someone stronger to deal with in front of me, so I couldn't help but focus my attention.

I pretended to be humble and chatted with Imperial Consort Yi, discussing matters that were neither good nor bad. But at this time, Yan Hua's head palace maid came to visit me again, because Yan Hua heard that I was unwilling to wear the gown of Cang Wu Country, so he sent his head palace maid to come to me in person to deliver the funeral dress that I was going to wear on the day of my wedding.

The dress was shiny red, and the whole thing was embroidered with birds. The beautiful wings were both dignified and noble. I had seen it before in a picture book. It was the queen's uniform of Cang Wu Country. Only the empress was qualified to wear a funeral uniform and wear a phoenix crown. In other words, Yan Hua was really prepared to marry me.

When Imperial Concubine Yi saw the clothes, her eyes were filled with shock. She sat on the chair, stunned, not moving at all. I think I might as well goad her a bit more. So, obediently let the palace maid help me put on my clothes. It wasn't until I had changed my clothes that Imperial Consort Yi came back to her senses. She couldn't hide the jealousy on her face.

With great difficulty, she exclaimed, "What beautiful clothes! My younger sister really fits perfectly when she wears them!"

Her manner had become humble, no longer as imposing as when she first came here. The ladies she brought with her were also somewhat discouraged.

The harem had always been like this. No matter how beautiful, noble, or scheming a woman was, if she could not get favored by the emperor, then it would be useless no matter how outstanding she was.

Imperial Concubine Yi clearly understood this logic, so her anger was suppressed.

In the end, she reluctantly sat down and left in a depressed manner. As soon as she was gone, I took off my suit, dismissed the others, and sat in front of the window in a daze.

Actually, I had no intention of competing with the later concubine for the favor. Naturally, I didn't have the mood to try on that silk clothing either. Just now, it was only to reveal his identity that he did that.

What was Yueze doing now that the palace was already brightly lit?

It had been a long time since he left the country of Nan Yu, how was he now? Would he really let me marry Yan Hua?

Looking at the bustling scene before me, my heart suddenly felt a little desolate.

The palace's nightly feast was held in Fehongtai.

The Feihong Platform was located in the southern side of Cang Wu Palace's imperial garden. It was a hundred zhang tall platform made of white marble. It was so wide that it could accommodate hundreds of people at the same time. Standing on the high platform, cool breeze, can look down at the sky, can touch the birds, hence the name "Hongtai."

Hearing the introduction of the palace maids in the Golden Lotus Palace, it was common for the palace to host a banquet here.

At this moment, the flags on the Fluttering Flood Dragon Platform were waving, and precious treasures were gathered there. Silk bamboo was floating in the air, and fragrance lingered in the air. From afar, it looked like a brightly lit place. It looked extremely rich and beautiful, just like the Immortal pavilion in the sky. Under the guidance of the palace maids, I slowly stepped onto the stage.

The seating arrangements for this banquet had already been prepared on the high platform … The Emperor's seat was already set up on the throne of the Nine Dragons Golden Glow, while on the other side was the golden phoenix jade case, which was supposed to be the empress's seat. Below it were the qilin case and the peony case, which were the seats of concubines, while on the other side was the official's seat.

The seats were filled to the brim with guests. Senior Concubine Yi, Chan Concubine and company had already arrived. Since the imperial harem of Yan Hua was empty, the seat of four concubines was equivalent to his entire harem. Senior Concubine Yi, as the first concubine, naturally took the first seat in the Peony Case. It was said that the Golden Phoenix Jade Case had always been empty because Yan Hua did not establish the Queen.

I stood at the table hesitantly... My current identity is a bit awkward, where should I sit? There didn't seem to be anyone at the scene who specially came to claim my seat. The imperial physician and others had arrived a long time ago and were sitting there solemnly. When they saw me, they didn't even bat an eyelid, as if I was air.

I stood up a little, and the ladies at the side lowered their heads, not daring to look at me. None of them wanted to stand up for me. On the other hand, Imperial Concubine Yi, Imperial Concubine Chan, and the others all looked at me with glee, as if they were very happy to see that Imperial Physician Shangguan and the other ministers didn't like me.

I thought for a moment, then walked to the edge of the dais, leaving the palace maid behind. The cool breeze blew across their faces and the starry sky shone brightly. It was actually a scenic spot. Since Yan Hua's still in the future, I might as well wait for him here. Moreover, this place also has a temporary resting place, on the seat of the roast chicken wine, to hook my appetite. If it weren't for the thought that my every movement now represented Nan Yu, I really would have sat on the floor and eaten the chicken wings. However, hundreds of eyes were staring straight at me from behind, waiting to see me embarrassed. I desperately resisted the urge to immediately enjoy delicious food.

At this moment, the elegant music finally came from behind me. I turned around and saw Yan Hua walking over.

He had already changed into a new set of dragon robes, and his hair was tied up in a golden crown. The jade wall hung at his waist, and his purple eyes were beautiful. It was the first time I had seen him dressed so grandly, and I was stunned.

Beautiful woman, my heart beat wildly, a sweet and sour taste hit me …

I swallowed hard. He thought to himself, Ancient books, beautiful women to eat, sincere not to bully me. When I saw Yan Hua, I felt a sudden urge to starve.

Princess Jingshu followed behind Yan Hua. Of all the guests present, she was the only one besides Yan Hua. Only she dared to come with His Majesty because she was greatly doted on by Yan Hua.

All the officials and concubines present stood up and knelt down to pay their respects. Yan Hua waved his hand and said a few kind words before sitting down.

On the way to the Venerable One, he saw me standing at the edge of the dais. His face lit up, and he extended his hand towards me.

"My beloved concubine, come with me."

Gasps could be heard from the crowd. Even before the marriage, they had already addressed each other as "beloved concubines". They had probably blinded the dog eyes of those pedantic old officials, right? Although I was unwilling to be addressed like that, I couldn't help but feel proud when I saw the jealousy in the eyes of Imperial Concubine Yi and the rest. I moved towards Yan Hua.

Yan Hua took my hand and led me directly to the Phoenix Seat, which was the main seat on the high platform. Even Princess Jingshu was only sitting next to Senior Concubine Yi. His action undoubtedly solidified my status in Cang Wu Country. I saw everyone's expression change.

At the beginning of the banquet, Yan Hua took good care of me. Although the old officials were still angry at my identity, the Emperor had already expressed his stance. Who would dare to cause any more trouble? So, even if Chan Fei and the others were to hiddenly grind their teeth into pieces, on the surface, they would still pretend to fawn on me.

I was bored, so I gave him a perfunctory response and then made an excuse to slip away.

Yan Hua knew that I came all the way here, so he didn't force me, and even told the palace to take good care of me.

After leaving the Soaring Sky Platform, I immediately returned to the Golden Lotus Palace. I really don't like this kind of banquet. I can't eat well, I can't drink well, and I have to pretend to be a Bodhisattva. If I eat a few more meals, I will definitely get stomach ulcers. I'd rather go back to the Golden Lotus Palace and sleep.
