Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 1145

At such a lively and extraordinary moment, no one noticed whether any of them left or returned.

Therefore, Pang Zhijing and Xiao Hou left and returned successively, which did not attract much attention.

Amidst the eunuch's singing, the Empress Xixuan appeared hand in hand.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, empress, thousand years old, thousand years old!"

Everyone knelt down and saluted, with a mighty voice and incomparable style.

Emperor Xixuan sat on the head with Empress Liang, looked at the officials and female relatives below, and waved his hand, "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone stood up and retreated to their seats.

Emperor Xixuan looked at the seat on the right, which was specially set up for the Nancang envoys. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Did the envoys of your country have a good rest these days?"

Tori cupped his hands and said loudly, "Thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, I will eat, drink and sleep well in the inn, just like at my own home. Thanks to Your Majesty for your hospitality."

Emperor Xixuan nodded happily, "It's as it should be. Anyone who comes is a guest. I'm still worried that the hospitality will not be good, so that's good."

After saying that, Emperor Xixuan's eyes turned to Pang Zhijing who was sitting quietly beside him, and he showed a friendly smile, "Princess, I heard that you have also wandered around the capital these few days, what did you gain?"

Pang Zhijing was taken aback when her name was suddenly called, but soon she replied generously, "Xixuan has outstanding people and beautiful scenery everywhere, which is much more fun than our Nancang. During the period, Zhijing also met a lot My friend, this trip is really worthwhile."

"The princess speaks a little more savagely than our Xixuan girls. She is a heroic girl. She is worthy of being the pearl princess carefully cultivated by King Nancang. She is graceful and not inferior to Fang Erlang," Emperor Xixuan exchanged a few words, and then changed his mouth. He said, "Then, please let the princesses and envoys enjoy the wonderful program specially prepared by our country for you, so as to comfort the hard work along the way."

As soon as Emperor Xixuan finished speaking, singers and dancers poured in outside the palace, and the music on both sides burst into the air, making the whole hall extremely lively.

When Chu Qingyan was watching the performance seriously, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the corner of her eyes. She couldn't help turning her head to look, and saw a figure sneaking up to her seat, as if sensing that someone had spotted him, he turned around and tried to face her. She squeezed her eyes to keep her silent.

Isn't this Xiao Yao?
Xiao Xu also noticed him, "Why is it so late?"

Xiao Yao's position was just below him, and it was very convenient for the two of them to talk.

"Don't mention it, I'm exhausted these days." Xiao Yao waved his hands with a look of complete sadness.

"Could it be that you were bullied by someone?" Xiao Yao has been drinking her good wine recently, and Chu Qingyan is not so unfamiliar with him anymore, because Xiao Xu's relationship with him is much closer, and he can also open up with him. It's a joke.

Xiao Yao turned a blind eye to his royal brother when he heard the words, "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, your family dares to tease me!"

"Elder sister-in-law is like a mother. She will be higher in seniority than you in the future. Shouldn't she care about you?" The wine glasses were intertwined, the lights were dark and dark, in such a leisurely and lively atmosphere, Xiao Xu's body was a little less serious, a little more soft, and he spoke relaxedly. Quite a lot.

Xiao Yao shook his head again and again, sighing that the world is getting worse, "Sure enough, I forgot about my brother after having a sister-in-law. I am so pitiful. I don't know what my father is thinking these days. He asks me to stay at the post station every day. I have contributed to the friendship between the two countries, but in fact, people simply ignore me, I can’t see anyone all day long, and I get rejected every day.”

Hearing these words, Xiao Xu and Chu Qingyan couldn't help but look at each other, Xiao Xu pondered for a while, "Father intends to let you marry Princess Nancang?"

"I don't know about that," Xiao Yao immediately waved his hands when he heard the words, and he said with a smile, "You also know that I'm used to being free and unrestrained, and it's too difficult to tie me up with a marriage contract. Besides, it's about I am not blessed to enjoy such a marriage."

Nancang people are ruthless, maybe this princess is savage by nature, he doesn't want to marry a tigress to make offerings in the mansion, that would be too much to suffer!

"Your Majesty's fate is hard to break, maybe that's what His Majesty intends." Chu Qingyan said, she rolled her eyes, intending to speak for Pang Zhijing, "Besides, I have met this princess several times, she is a lovely and innocent girl, maybe you will get along well."

This topic will be handled by the little guy, and Xiao Xu will not get involved.

Xiao Yao shook his head resolutely, then approached mysteriously and said, "No matter who the final marriage partner is, I have a gossip here, I wonder if you want to listen to it?"

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Xu drank the wine in front of him without interest, and only Chu Qingyan looked at him leisurely.

Xiao Yao looked frustrated, "Hey, you two...forget it, I'll tell you," he said in a low voice, "I think Princess Nancang and the third brother are tricky."

After finishing speaking, I thought I would be surprised by the two of them, but unexpectedly, one is still not interested, and the other is still full of leisure.

"Hey, don't bring such a thing, anyway, I also shared such secret news with you." Xiao Yao muttered.

"It's not that we don't support you, it's just that we have already heard the news." Chu Qingyan kindly explained that although the relationship between Pang Zhijing and Xiao Hou is unclear, judging from their private contacts, If you say it doesn't matter, then you can't justify it.

"Did you discover anything?" At this time, Xiao Xu asked.

Hearing this, Xiao Yao raised his eyebrows and nodded, "That's right, didn't I go to the post station again yesterday? It's a pity that I didn't see the princess, so I just drank nearby, and then I saw the princess came back in a daze, as if she had suffered some serious injury. I inquired about it, and she came back in the direction of the third brother's mansion, do you think it was a coincidence?"

This surprised Chu Qingyan, because Pang Zhijing just went to their palace yesterday, and she was happy when she left, why did she suddenly go to Xiao Hou's side?
"Second prince, according to what you say, the person who will marry the princess today is a bit uncertain." Could it be that Pang Zhijing likes Xiao Hou?

Xiao Yao chuckled, raised his legs and said to his elder brother, "I have a bold guess, do you want to listen?"

After finishing speaking, he remembered the virtues of the two of them before, shook his head, stopped asking for trouble, and went straight to the point, "I am the emperor's candidate, but you are the emperor's candidate for Nancang."

"How is it possible?" Chu Qingyan frowned subconsciously and asked back.

Xiao Yao smiled mysteriously, "Based on the deep friendship between the third brother and Nan Cang, this is not impossible, after all, we can take the opportunity to remove the military power from the great emperor brother."

Nancang is a big country and a fierce opponent, the imperial court will not hand over such important soldiers and horses to the big emperor brother.

So embracing a beautiful woman is equivalent to giving up power.

"That depends on whether I agree or not!" Xiao Xu said coldly.
