Chapter 184

King Chu's insinuating words shocked everyone, and the hall couldn't help but sigh.

The face of the second prince also showed a contemptuous smile, his vicious eyes were fixed on Chu Huan's tense expression and the deep cold eyes that still couldn't see through his mind, his eyes narrowed, the provocative intention was very obvious .Now, he already has the assistance of the prime minister and many ministers. Even if he cannot be canonized as a prince, his status and power are already higher than Chu Huan, His Highness Duke Huai. The most important thing is that he still has the support of the King of Chu. .

The melodious sound of the zither was flowing slowly above the main hall, and the gentle sound of the zither contained a touch of sadness. Concubine Jiang played the qin with both hands, her face calm, but her dark and beautiful eyes could not hide her misery.

When Yun Qing saw such a sad woman who was begging for perfection, she couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in her heart. She looked at Chu Huan again, only to see that he had silently poured down a few large glasses of strong wine, but his calm face never showed the slightest hint of pain. mood.In fact, Northern Chu was close to the Xiongnu, and many bad habits have been contaminated. For example, after the death of the husband, the wife must marry the husband's younger brother, or marry the husband's eldest son if there is no blood relationship.

However, this is the royal family of Northern Chu after all, it would be indecent to do such an astonishing move, let alone a Central Plains woman with three obediences and four virtues.Maybe others couldn't see why she did this, but Yun Qing could tell from the sadness in her eyes that she was just a mother who used her delicate body to protect her child.

For the sake of Chu Huan, as a mother, she would rather be despised by the world and bear the notoriety of being a dissatisfied woman in the court for showing favor to her husband's eldest son.

The emperor's eyes were also a little cold. Although he had heard many rumors about these similar things, he was still a little stunned when he saw it with his own eyes. His sword eyebrows were slightly lowered, but he never said a word.

Chu Huan and King Chu, these two people are people he can't tolerate, they fight, and Xuanye Kingdom will benefit the most, so he is willing to watch them fight and kill each other...

The music of the zither came to an end slowly. Concubine Jiang never looked at her son, maybe she was afraid of revealing her emotions or offending the King of Chu, so she just lowered her head, then slowly got up, She said gracefully: "This is the only song for the mourning family. I wish the king a long life and good health.

"Okay, okay, hahaha..." King Chu laughed loudly, in a very happy mood, and then motioned to Gong'e, who was serving the banquet beside him, to pour wine, got up and said, "My king, thank you, Concubine Jiang, for your kindness. Come and give us wine. This king respects Concubine Jiang's mother." As he said, he raised his head and drank a glass of wine, very carefree.

Concubine Jiang took the wine that Gong'e handed over, her expression darkened, but she still drank it slowly, and then said lightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Ai family."

In the main hall, the atmosphere was strange, dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at Concubine Jiang's charming and charming figure, her stunning appearance and King Chuhuai's deep complexion, watching the changes quietly.Although they all know that the folks in Northern Chu were exaggerated by the Xiongnu, but this was the first time in the royal family. It cannot be said that it is unreasonable to do so, but after all, King Huai of Chu The first marshal of the country, if this is really the case, then wouldn't Chu Huan be laughed at by the world?
As a result, some of them sighed and sneered, some sneered triumphantly, and some even shook their heads in pity, all with different expressions.However, their minds are all the same, that is: King Chuhuai is afraid that he will no longer have a foothold in the court. Although he has the military power now, it is difficult to predict the rise and fall of the future.

However, when everyone had their own thoughts and secretly speculated and sighed that the prince who was originally a high-ranking and powerful prince who was hailed as the son of a god would lose his power from now on, he suddenly heard a faint laughter from above the high position in the hall. .

Everyone was startled, and they immediately came back to their senses. They turned their gazes to the gentle and gentle little queen at the same time. Even the king of Chu who was so joyful that he almost showed his true colors just now, and the second prince Chu Yan who was coldly looking at Chu Huan and Concubine Jiang turned back immediately. God, all looked towards Yunqing.I saw that Yun Qing was looking lazily under the hall, her amber eyes were shining with an indistinct luster, and her red lips were smiling, seemingly gentle, delicate and beautiful, but there was also a hint of The coldness and deterrence that cannot be ignored.

Concubine Jiang also raised her head. When she saw Yun Qing's deep and intelligent eyes, her aggrieved eyes were startled for a moment, and then her expression froze.This girl is full of danger and cunning, is she the rumored little queen Leng Wan'er?

Even Concubine Jiang, who lives in the deep palace of Northern Chu, has heard about the three words Leng Wan'er, but she has never been able to believe that a middle-earth woman can be so arrogant, but today's glance made her There was a shudder in my heart. Is she really a 14-year-old girl?Why are those eyes as deep as the wisdom that has been silent for a hundred years?
"Concubine Jiang plays the piano really well," Yun Qing said indifferently, as if talking about homework.

"Ai Jia thanked the empress for her praise. I haven't played the piano for many years, and the tune is boring, which made my empress laugh." Concubine Jiang replied very politely. She has the unique gentle temperament of Central Plains women, and she presumably came from a scholarly family.

These two extremely plain words stunned the people in the hall for a moment. Everyone lingered, observing the expressions of Yun Qing and Concubine Jiang, because the two women seemed to hit it off.The king of Chu on the side raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face disappeared. He looked at Yun Qing silently, and the golden cup in his hand also stopped, as if he was guessing what the little queen wanted.

Chu Huan's face was indifferent, he didn't know how many glasses of strong wine he had drunk, and his expression was a little drunk, but his eyes were cold and deep, but only Yun Qing could see that his hand holding the wine glass had turned white, as if he had used a lot of alcohol. Great strength.Perhaps, he is a strong man on the battlefield, but in the face of power disputes, he is still a weak prince.

"Even though Concubine Jiang and Ben Gong are not old acquaintances, 'bridal chamber festive night, when the gold list is named, and meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land' are indeed the three great happy events in our Central Plains people's life. Today's King of Chu's birthday banquet, it is already a great joy to marry the second prince." , Now in the palace of Northern Chu, you can still see Concubine Jiang, who was originally from the Central Plains, and this palace can be said to have two great happy events today." Yun Qing said shallowly, with an indifferent expression, and then said to Zhao An beside him: "Eunuch Zhao , Ben Gong and Concubine Jiang hit it off immediately, and put the table on the table."

"Yes" Eunuch Zhao immediately responded, and immediately, an ebony desk with a raised head was placed beside Yun Qing.

The courtiers in the main hall were all a little surprised, and the King of Chu's eyes were also gloomy, not understanding what Yun Qing wanted to do, but after his heart turned and he thought about it, he thought that this little queen might understand the political situation of Chu State at all, and had always only Concubine Jiang was only from the Central Plains, so she felt relieved and smiled as before.
