Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 300

However, this gave Su Hanxiao a good solution. He went directly to the Marshal's Mansion and took Lan Chenyan into the palace. Everyone was happy.
When all the people arrived, the queen said some congratulations as usual and announced the opening of the banquet. It was already the time when the sky was full of stars.
Su Hanxiao sighed. Fortunately, he was well prepared and had already filled his stomach before coming.The queen gave a banquet, no matter how exquisite the dishes are, who would dare to eat and drink?Not to mention unsightly, the most important thing is, if the empress gets interested and asks a few words, wouldn't this answer with a mouthful of food be a disgrace?
At the same time, it was a different scene in the East Palace.
Under the starry sky, reflecting the white snow that has not completely melted, coupled with the red colored lights specially hung up to express the celebration, even a place as cold as Xizhuyuan can't help but show a bit of festive flavor.
Qin Yue looked helplessly at the few people who occupied his place.
Bailiqing is indeed a frequent visitor to Xizhu Garden, and Mei Ruoshui will also come here often. Although it is inevitable to do a few tricks every time, when did Han Shumo, who was afraid of him when he saw him, also come?Followed by two oil bottles, Yun Qian and Su Jin.
The princess is not here, the masters of the East Palace are all concentrated here, it is impossible to have only two attendants in the Xizhu Garden, so Qixian brought Yuxiao and a few well-behaved attendants to serve together.
Logically speaking, Su Jin should also attend the banquet given by Fengning Palace, but who knows that the Seventh Prince is not welcomed by the Queen, and when he complains of illness, the attendants in charge of the banquet are naturally happy to not make arrangements.
"It's a beautiful day, what are you doing with a straight face?" Bailiqing was enjoying himself while drinking tea, "Anyway, there is no master in the palace today, so it doesn't matter if you are out of line."
"Yes, I heard that there will be fireworks in the palace, what a pity to miss it!" Han Shumo eagerly said.
"Okay, there's gunpowder in that thing, just take a look, put it yourself, if you get hurt, there's no place to cry." Bailiqing said.
"What about you?" Qin Yue tilted her head, and glanced coldly at Mei Ruoshui who was also standing aside, as if she was out of tune with the excitement.
"Killed Tang Lan with a smile," Mei Ruoshui said.
Qin Yue was silent for a while, looking at the night sky outside the window, speechless.
He knew what Su Hanxiao was up to, but he had nothing to say. After a long time, he whispered: "I'm not from Dayong."
Mei Ruoshui suddenly heard such a sentence, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment, but immediately realized what he wanted to express.
In the Mingyue Pass incident, in theory, Qin Yue is the culprit, and Shui Rou and Tang Lan can only be regarded as an accomplice. However... Qin Yue is not from Dayong, that is to say, to him, there is no such thing as treason. The claim of treason.None of them are from this country, so what kind of enemy did he know, and whose country did he sell?
Shui Rou, Tang Lan, and maybe others, even though there are elements of threat, but if they are not interested in the benefits after success, they will die anyway, who would be willing to do such a thing to punish the nine clans?In the final analysis, it is still greed.
"What exactly do you want?" Mei Ruoshui asked lightly.
"What do you want..." Qin Yue lowered her head, looked at the two swords at her waist that would never leave her body even during the New Year, and said with a wry smile, "Before I met her, I just wanted to live. After that... maybe I still want There's more to it."
"If one day... I will kill you." Mei Ruoshui said.
"That's up to you." Qin Yue smiled coldly.
"You two, what are you doing hiding in the corner?" Bailiqing turned around at this moment, and raised his voice to them, "Even if we usually want to fight when we meet, anyway, today is New Year's Eve, so let's stop for a day !"
The two looked at each other, tacitly suppressed the topic they were talking about just now, and walked over slowly.
"Boom!" Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the sky.
"Fireworks are set off!" Han Shumo slammed down his chopsticks and ran out the door excitedly.
The colorful fireworks bloomed in the dark night, and the brilliance attracted even the servants to stare at them intently, but at this time, no one reprimanded them for their impoliteness.
"Ruoshui, be careful." Bailiqing whispered.
"I know." Mei Ruoshui nodded, looked at Qin Yue again, and stepped back slowly. He was used to being dressed in black, but at this time no one paid attention to him, so he easily disappeared in the night .
Qin Yue glanced at the direction in which he was leaving, and then looked at Bailiqing who had brought a large group of people to the door and turned a blind eye at this moment, a thoughtful look flashed in her eyes.
The fireworks in the palace would last for an hour, and Mei Ruoshui easily slipped out of the palace gate.
After all, it was the New Year's Eve, and no one would wander the streets without incident. Even the beggars gathered together to find a shelter from the wind to eat the buns sent by the government.
Mei Ruoshui passed several houses, landed in a simple alley, and knocked on a door.
"The Palace Master is here?" Soon, a young man opened the door and quickly welcomed him in.
"Where is the person?" Mei Ruoshui asked as soon as she entered the door.
"It's in the back room." The young man replied, and said with some doubts, "Master, it's not easy to bring a corpse into the city. What is it?"
"You shouldn't know, don't talk too much." Mei Ruoshui frowned and said coldly.
"Yes." The boy stuck out his tongue, but he didn't dare to say more.
Mei Ruoshui asked him to watch the door, and walked into the inner room alone.
The back room was not lit, and with the starlight coming in through the window, the person lying on the bed could be vaguely seen.
His face was so pale that there was no trace of blood, his chest did not rise and fall, and he looked almost dead.
Mei Ruoshui probed his breath, and sure enough there was nothing there, which made him a little uneasy.
