Empress Dowager Princess Beloved Husband Story

Chapter 25: The Assassination of Yuwen Kingdom at the Banquet (1)

Because Duguhong knew the road conditions in this area, they passed the cliff smoothly. At this time, there was an extra carriage belonging to Duguhong. Now there were four carriages, and the scene of walking together was quite spectacular.

Fifth Fanxi and Baili Fengting were still riding side by side, and the men were all sitting in the carriage.

The road was fairly smooth, and they had already arrived at the capital of Yuwen Kingdom, Bacheng, and the group of them drove to the post station in a mighty carriage.

At this time, officials from Yuwen Kingdom were already here to welcome them. Seeing them coming in a mighty manner, they hurried forward and saluted, "Young Minister of Yuwen Kingdom, Yu Hao, sees the princess."

She turned off her horse with a smile, cupped her hands and said, "Master Yu, you don't need to be too polite."

"The princess has been exhausted all the way...Her Majesty has prepared a reception banquet for the princess. You can wash up and go to the palace with me for the banquet." Yu Hao said politely.

"Okay... everything will be done according to Master Yu's wishes." She said with a smile.

"This is..." Yu Hao saw Baili Fengting beside him, so he asked.

"Oh...this is my sworn sister Feng Ting..." She intentionally left out the word "Baili" to avoid wasting words.

"It turned out to be Miss Feng, it's a pleasure to meet you..." Yu Hao saluted.

Baili Fengting waved her hands and said, "Master Yu, you don't need to be too polite."

"Since that's the case, Miss Feng Ting will go to the palace with you for the banquet." Yu Hao said with a smile.

"Is it impolite..." Baili smiled.

"Miss Feng is serious, she won't be out of etiquette."

"Princess, you go to freshen up first, and I will wait for you later." Yu Hao arched his hands.

"Okay... Your Excellency, please go ahead." After saying that, she ordered Bai Yu to drive the carriage into the post station.She and Baili got on their horses and went straight to the stable.

At this time, a woman dressed in short clothes reported, "My lord... this time the Fifth Princess seems to be prepared... Can we take precautions in advance?"

"Bawu, tell me to go on...don't act rashly, if the queen blames you, I can't bear it." Yu Hao said with a gloomy face.

"But... my lord... my subordinates are worried..." Bawu was interrupted by Yu Hao before she finished speaking, and she said angrily, "There are so many people talking here, do you want to lose your head?"

"My lord... this subordinate is too impatient." Bawu saluted.

"Hurry up and wait here, everything will be arranged by the queen." Yu Hao ordered.

"Yes... this subordinate understands." After finishing the words, he stood aside politely.

The shopkeeper of the inn hurriedly welcomed them in respectfully, and said with a smile, "The princess has worked hard all the way... The room you need is ready, and the villain will send someone to bring hot water in a while, and you go back to the room Take a rest, Xiaoge will take the princess to rest." The shopkeeper said enthusiastically.

"Come on, princess, please come with me..." A plump woman said with a smile.

Fifth Fanxi saw that this woman was particularly happy, so he took out a piece of gold leaf and handed it to her, "I reward you with this, it's so nice to serve you..."

"Thank you princess for the reward... the little one will definitely serve you well." After saying that, she led the way.

The scale of this station is very large, it is a courtyard with five entrances, and there are dozens of rooms inside and outside.

Turning all the way to a courtyard, it looks very elegant, with the main house on the north, side rooms on both sides, and wing rooms on the east and west sides. The name of the courtyard is "Luoyuan".

"Princess, this is your yard, please..." Xiaoge said with a smile.

"Okay..." A group of people entered the yard with a whoosh.

Xiaoge cleverly arranged the residences of all the people, and then said respectfully, "Princess, please rest first, and I will bring you hot water for you to wash later."

"Hmm..." Fifth Fanxi nodded in satisfaction.

Xiao Ge turned and left, thinking, "These are distinguished guests, you must not neglect them, maybe you can get some benefits..." Thinking in his heart, his steps became much lighter.

Everyone went back to the room to rest, and then Xiaoge sent hot water for them to wash up and they looked much more refreshed.

Fifth Fanxi told her husband some things, telling them not to go out and walk around so as not to get into trouble, Sanmei nodded in agreement.

Then they came towards the gate of the inn together with Baili. From a long distance, they saw Yu Hao and others holding their necks and looking around. When they saw them come out, they hurried forward and said, "Princess, Jiaozi is ready for you, please... Miss Feng Please…"

She saluted casually, "Your Excellency, you are polite..." Then she stepped into the sedan chair.Baili then stepped into another Jiaozi.

"Get up..." Someone yelled, and the group left the station slowly and went straight to the Yuwen Kingdom Palace.

***
The Imperial Palace of Yuwen Kingdom is simple and atmospheric, with a strong historical atmosphere. The main hall here is very similar to the product of the Tang Dynasty, which is relatively simple.Fifth Fanxi looked at it carefully and gave a favorable evaluation.

The man in eunuch uniform said, "Princess Longyu, Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time, please come with the miscellaneous family..." After saying that, he turned and walked in front.

"Thank you..." Fifth Fanxi and Baili Fengting strode up to follow.

Not long after, they came to the 'Taiji Palace' where the queen entertained distinguished guests. After bringing them here, the father-in-law said loudly, "The fifth princess is here..." Then, he stood by the door and waited for dispatch.

Fifth Fanxi and Baili Fengting strode into the hall, and the head manager Xu Ying hurriedly greeted them, and said with a salute, "The Princess is exhausted, the empress is here to host a banquet for the Princess...Please, the Princess..." Then lead them into the VIP seats.

"Princess, wait a moment, the queen will arrive soon." Xu Ying smiled.

Fifth Fanxi nodded politely, and said, "Thank you, father-in-law..."

It was some officials from Yuwen Kingdom who had been waiting here early, and they came forward to greet her after seeing her, which made her a little embarrassed.

"Uh... Xiao Wuer, what do you think these officials are doing here?" Baili was puzzled.

"Probably to join in the fun, or to attend the banquet at the Queen's order." Fifth Fanxi whispered to her.

"Hmm...I hate such occasions the most." Baili waved his hand helplessly.

"Okay...we're not here for a banquet, you know our purpose, first find out what this Empress Yuwen is really thinking about when making a decision." Fifth Fanxi said.

"Well, I know this is about the safety of tens of thousands of people, so I must figure it out this time." Baili said seriously at the moment.

"Yes... I mean the same thing." Wu Fanxi patted her on the shoulder and said.

"Sisters who are united in one mind can cut through gold." Baili said nonchalantly.

Fifth Fanxi smiled and felt that it was a lot of joy to have Baili as a treasure in her presence.

At this moment, the eunuch shouted outside, "Her Majesty has arrived, everyone will welcome you..."

When the courtiers heard the words, they all flocked to the door and knelt down to receive him.

Fifth, Fanxi and Baili sat there leisurely drinking tea without moving a muscle, and then heard a loud voice saying, "Everyone is flat..." Then they saw a woman in a yellow robe coming from outside the hall. walked in gracefully.

At this moment Wu Fanxi and Baili stood up to show their respect, bowed their hands and said, "Fifth Fanxi pays homage to Your Majesty the Empress of Yuwen Kingdom, long live, long live, long live..." This is an eternal drama, which emperor doesn't like it Long live…

"You don't have to be polite...Please sit down..." The queen smiled and sat on the dragon chair.

Wu Fanxi looked carefully, and suddenly found that the appearance of this Empress Yuwen was very similar to that of a modern old drama character 'Liu Xiaoqing'. This discovery made her suddenly feel that she had entered a chaotic time and space, and she could see familiar characters everywhere. faces.

"Hey... Xiao Wuer, why are you in a daze?" Baili pushed her and said.

"Eh..." Turning around, she saw Baili Fengting with a Xu Qing face, which made her even more speechless.

"It must be hard work for the Princess to come all the way, and we won't return tonight if we don't get drunk." The Queen said happily.

"Thank... Your Majesty." She said respectfully.

All the courtiers sat in their seats properly. Wu Fanxi looked left and right, and saw a bunch of expressionless old women. Hey... I feel deeply unfortunate.

"Come here... to dance..." The queen called, and the dancer came.

A group of men dressed in tulle came into view, all of them covered their faces with red veils, their bodies were more enchanting than modern women, saluted the queen, and then danced lightly, their graceful dancing posture can be described as coquettish*** The queen was in high spirits, this dance had just finished and the next dance started, the queen toasted Wu Fanxi with a glass of wine from time to time, and the scene was harmonious.

"Princess, what do you think of these dancers?" The queen asked with a half-smile.

"Eh... these dancers dance very well, very well." She smiled.

Fifth Fanxi has been secretly observing the queen since the beginning, and found that she neither intentionally pleases her nor deliberately indifferent to her, which is really puzzling.

"This is a friend of the princess, what do you think?" the queen said leisurely.

"Eh... I think what the princess said is quite right, these dancers dance very well." Baili said neither humble nor overbearing.

"Hahaha... In that case, how about choosing a few to go back and appreciate slowly?" the queen suggested.

"Uh...Your Majesty is really joking, I appreciate your kindness, but I am not blessed to accept the beauty's favor? Hahaha..." She evaded it with good words.

"Oh... what does the princess mean?" The queen looked at her puzzled.

"Hahaha... I'm not afraid of your jokes. I'm very afraid of guilt. My husbands are all tough, so I'd better be cautious...Be cautious." Her words really hit the nail on the head.

Baili almost laughed out loud when he heard the words, and thought, "Your husband is gentle, okay? He's not as tough as you say..."

"Hahaha..." All the courtiers couldn't stop laughing when they heard this.

"Princess...fear of internal affairs...this statement is not false..." Baili came out to disturb it at the right time.

"Hahaha... If that's the case, then I won't be hard on lovers, let's enjoy it here..." the queen said meaningfully.

Fifth Fanxi saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty..."

Baili Fengting whispered in her ear, "When are you afraid of guilt, hahaha..."

The two chatted happily, and the courtiers on the left and right were all serious looking at the enchanting dancing poses of the dancers.

"Princess, be careful..." Before she could speak, a dancer in green stabbed at her with a sword.

She dodged to dodge his assassination, but her arm was still bleeding from the stabbing. The queen yelled, "Catch this villain." Who knew that the man in green and his accomplices dropped a smoke bomb, almost People disappeared together.
