Chapter 201 The Fourth Sister's Contribution (Part [-])
The Liangguo ethnic group is a nomadic people, and the ancestors of the Liangguo conquered mountains and rivers on horseback.Therefore, compared to other palaces of the Three Kingdoms, the Imperial Palace of the Liang Kingdom is obviously much more rugged.

This was not Song Qinghuan's first time entering Liangguo's palace, so after a few cursory glances, he withdrew his gaze.

Everything is still as it is in memory, blue tiles and gray walls, towering palace, due to the severe cold climate and scarcity of water, most of the plants in the palace are low shrubs and green plants, showing a sense of simplicity and desolation.

Today's palace banquet is held in Yupeng Hall, which is the palace where guests are entertained with banquets on weekdays.

Zhou Ya led them all the way to Yupeng Hall.

"Shen Xiang and Di Ji are really talented and beautiful!" Zhou Ya turned his head, looked at the two of them seriously, and complimented them.

Shen Chuhan glanced at him, gave a soft "um", and didn't answer.

Song Qinghuan smiled politely, "Grandpa Zhou is overrated."

Seeing Shen Chuhan's icy expression, Zhou Ya's eyes darkened, he didn't say any more, and led them to the Yupeng Hall without saying anything.

"Master Shen, Emperor Ji, please." Zhou Ya bowed his hands and invited the two into the hall.

The servant at the door sang loudly with a shrill voice, "Lord Shen Xiang has arrived——Emperor Wuyang has arrived—"

Accompanied by the loud announcement, Shen Chuhan and Song Qinghuan stepped into the Yupeng Hall together.

There were already many people sitting on the left and right rows of seats in the hall. The servant's voice fell, and the originally bustling hall suddenly fell silent.

I saw the two people who came wearing light, both of them had the demeanor of exiled immortals. The breeze blew the corners of their brocade-colored clothes, their auras were leisurely and clear, and their faces were exquisite.

Shen Chuhan's handsome face was well known to everyone, so those complicated and examining eyes fell more on Song Qinghuan who was beside him.

Song Qinghuan, Empress of Wuyang, these words were born in the past two years, and instantly resounded across the four countries, making people have to re-examine this Empress who has been unknown for more than ten years.

This woman is only sixteen or seventeen years old, her skin is creamy, her eyebrows are like emerald feathers, her face is lightly powdered, her red lips are dyed, and her eyes are full of flamboyant charm.The glamorous amorous feelings revealed in the facial features are wonderfully blended with the Qinghua's cool aura around him, and his figure is thin and moving, like a ray of clear light, illuminating the entire hall in an instant.

Before seeing her, everyone was curious, what kind of woman is it that makes Shen Xiang, who has never been close to women and cold and ruthless, insist on asking for marriage at the risk of offending Emperor Liang?
But today, after seeing Song Qinghuan, everyone was stunned.

Such a graceful and beautiful woman is indeed worthy of Shen Xiang's act of "becoming a beauty with anger".

What's more, in addition to her outstanding and astonishing appearance, she was also the winner of the sword-grabbing contest that was rumored a while ago, and the legendary owner of the Cangxie Sword who "gets the world if you get it".

However, in this way, the relationship between Shen Xiang and Emperor Liang became more and more delicate.

Shen Chuhan asked to marry Empress Wuyang before the birth of Cangxie Sword. At that time, the two countries had already agreed to the marriage between the two, but they didn't want the matter of Cangxie Sword to happen suddenly——

When Empress Wuyang married the Liang Kingdom, Cangxie Sword must follow her master.After the two got married, Cang Xie Sword naturally fell into the prime minister's residence.Emperor Liang was already jealous of Shen Chuhan, now that Shen Chuhan got the Cangxie Sword again, it would definitely arouse even greater dissatisfaction and suspicion from Emperor Liang, and the relationship between the monarch and his ministers could be said to be in jeopardy.

However, even so, Shen Xiang had no intention of canceling the marriage at all.

Is it because Shen Xiang's nature is too arrogant, or is he so deeply attached to Empress Wuyang that he has no time to consider other factors?Everyone guessed, and looked at Song Qinghuan with more curiosity and complexity.

Song Qinghuan and Shen Chuhan turned a blind eye to these skeptical, scrutinizing, and hostile gazes, walking unhurriedly, and led by the maids to the front of the seats.

I don't know if it was a deliberate arrangement, but Song Qinghuan's seat was placed first in the right column, followed by Ning Le Changdi Ji Yin Qingrong, while Shen Chuhan's seat was arranged in the left column.

Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with this arrangement.

Yun Qing Dalu respects the right, and to show respect, he arranged Song Qinghuan's seat in the right column.Although Shen Chuhan has a high position and authority, he is still only a courtier after all. Yin Zhan's move clearly meant to beat him up.

After hearing the maid's words, Shen Chuhan's expression did not change, and without stopping, he walked straight to Yin Qingrong.He lowered his head slightly, looked directly at Yin Qingrong who was blushing a little, and said in a cold voice, "Your Highness, can I change seats with you?"

Yin Qingrong twitched her brows, somewhat astonished.

Although she had given up on Shen Chuhan, but under such a pair of deep eyes, she couldn't say the word of rejection, she just stared blankly at Shen Chuhan, with waves in her eyes.

It is no longer a secret that Ning Le Chang Diji has intentions for Shen Xiang. Seeing Yin Qingrong's shy expression at this time, everyone's heart became more and more aware, and they looked at the few people calmly, waiting to see a good show up.

Those who have good things frequently look at Song Qinghuan's face, as if they want to see her lose her composure or displeasure.But to their disappointment, Empress Wuyang's expression didn't fluctuate at all, she stood there with a half-smile, as if she was out of the matter.

"Your Highness?" Shen Chuhan spoke again, with a slightly deep end, as if a little displeased.

Yin Qingrong suddenly came back to her senses, blinked her long eyelashes, and responded in a panic, "Okay...okay." Saying that, she hurriedly got up, and led the maid to Shen Chuhan's seat.

"Thank you." Shen Chuhan saluted lightly, first invited Song Qinghuan to the table, and then sat down himself.

The good people look disappointed.

I thought I could see a scene where two women competed for one man, no matter how bad it was, there should be some swordsmanship, but I didn't want this matter to be resolved without any disturbance.

I have to sigh in my heart, Xiang Shen is Xiang Xiang after all.

Shen Chuhan took his seat, and his cool eyes swept away, making those who had small thoughts froze suddenly, as if all their thoughts had nowhere to hide, they lowered their eyes in a panic, not daring to look any more.

Maybe Shen Chuhan has been away from Shengjing for too long, so long that they have begun to forget how violent Shen Chuhan used to be, how he killed people without blinking an eye, how dare they try to watch Shen Xiang's good show?
As a result, the hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone felt insecure, holding their breath and concentrating on it, without squinting.

But the instigator, Shen Chuhan, didn't seem to notice it at all, and only looked at Song Qinghuan with a slight smile, signaling her to be at ease.Fortunately, everyone didn't dare to look at it anymore, otherwise, if they saw the light smile on the corner of Shen Chuhan's mouth at this moment, their jaws would drop in shock.

The weird atmosphere in the hall didn't last long, because soon Yin Zhan came.

"The emperor is here—the Concubine Shu is here—"

Yin Zhan has not yet become a queen, and he is not a person of lust. The harem is vacant and there are not many concubines. Now Song Qingyu is naturally respected.

What's more, Song Qingyu is Song Qinghuan's sister, and she should come to this palace banquet due to emotion and reason.

After the servant's voice fell, the figures of Yin Zhan and Song Qingyu appeared at the entrance of the hall.Yin Zhan is wearing a silver-purple brocade robe embroidered with dragon and cloud patterns today, which complements his tall and handsome figure, but his expression is always cloudy, and his eyes are covered with an elusive thick fog.

Song Qingyu next to him could see that he had been carefully dressed.

The palace attire is a silk-colored cloud brocade, the waist is tied with a brocade belt around the waist, the breasts are half exposed, and the skirt is graceful and swaying when walking.

It has to be said that after Song Qingyu came to Liangguo, his temperament and appearance were a little better than before.Maybe it's because Zai Yu lived under Song Qingyi's shadow before, so he didn't dare or have the right to dress up as Sheng.

But now that she is in the position of concubine Shu, no matter whether Yin Zhanxi likes her or not, just because of her status as the concubine of the Yu Kingdom, she will give her the favor and face she deserves, and she will never give her a little less.With a good mood and piles of wealth, it is normal for Song Qinghuan to become beautiful.

However, everyone was still immersed in the shock left by Song Qinghuan, and Song Qingyu's entry did not cause much sensation.

Among the three imperial concubines of Yu Kingdom, Song Qingyu had the most ordinary appearance.Her facial features can only be considered delicate, and now even under her best clothes, she can't reach the level of stunning.

Seeing the mediocre response from the crowd, Song Qingyu gritted his teeth resentfully, lowered his eyes to cover his displeasure, followed Yin Zhan, walked to the head and sat down.

As soon as she sat down, her eyes were glued to Song Qinghuan's body, her eyes were burning with jealousy, and her face was ferocious for a moment.

Yin Zhan also looked at Song Qinghuan as if he didn't know anything, and a look of amazement flashed in his eyes, but he turned his eyes quickly and landed on Shen Chuhan's face on her left side, his brows could not help but frown.

The crowd saluted.

Yin Zhan raised his hand to signal his disrespect, and his eyes fell back on Shen Chuhan's face, "It seems that Prime Minister Shen's seat is not here?" There was a dark current in the bottom of his eyes, with a hint of displeasure.

When he went to meet him at the city gate yesterday, he was a little dissatisfied that Shen Chuhan and Song Qinghuan were in the same car.In fact, Liang's national customs are open, and it is the country with the loosest defenses between men and women among the four countries. It is not a big deal for unmarried men and women to ride in the same car, not to mention that Shen Chuhan and Song Qinghuan are already engaged, but Yin Zhan is very upset.

In his subconscious mind, he always thought that Shen Chuhan deliberately avoided choosing Song Qinghuan, and casually asked someone else to marry him in order to keep Empress Wuyang to himself, so seeing the intimate behavior of the two, he couldn't help feeling jealous.

Therefore, at this palace banquet, he deliberately ordered someone to separate the seats between the two, but he never expected that Shen Chuhan would be so bold as to change seats with Yin Qingrong on his own initiative.

Shen Chuhan raised his eyes, and said in an unhurried tone, "Emperor Ji doesn't recognize people when she first arrives, and it's convenient for me to sit next to her to mention something, so I decided to change without authorization, and please don't be offended by the emperor."

He said apologetic words in his mouth, but his expression was not half apologetic. In Yin Zhan's eyes, he just felt angry and rushed up.

"What? Does the emperor want the humble minister to return? If so, I'm afraid I will trouble the Changdi Ji again." Shen Chuhan continued.

Yin Zhan clenched his fists. Originally, the number of seats was not an important matter. If he insisted on asking Shen Chuhan to change his seat back, it would inevitably make the atmosphere on the field stiff.Now he doesn't have the capital to confront Shen Chuhan head-on, although he is unhappy, he has no choice but to swallow his breath and squeeze out a half-hearted smile, "It's not necessary, it's just a trivial matter."

The gloomy eyes flashed across Song Qinghuan's face, and he said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "It seems... Shen Xiang is really moved." He sighed, "In this way, so many noble ladies in Shengjing should be saddened."

Shen Chuhan smiled, but didn't answer.

Song Qingyu's eyes turned, and his words were not kind, "Isn't it the emperor? Prime Minister Shen, I'm afraid he fell in love with Wu Yang very early. Otherwise, the emperor would give Xiang Xiang a marriage at that time, why would he not want to?"

What she said was true.

At that time, Song Qingyu had just married to Liang Country, and Yin Zhan had already become jealous of Shen Chuhan. In order to win him over and place his own people by his side, Yin Zhan mentioned several times that he would give Shen Chuhan a marriage. Shen Chuhan blocked her back.

At that time, Yin Zhan only thought that Shen Chuhan was not willing to be manipulated by him, but now that Song Qingyu mentioned it, he suddenly had a different idea.

What if at that time...Shen Chuhan had already taken a fancy to Song Qinghuan?This confirmed his own thoughts, he did indeed stuff the person he didn't want into himself!
Yin Zhan is a king, so he naturally has the common problems of a king - arrogance, suspicion, and strong self-esteem.

If this was the case, it meant that Shen Chuhan didn't take him seriously as the emperor at all.

Today is a woman, what about tomorrow, will I be sitting on the throne myself?
His breath suddenly sank, and he looked at Shen Chuhan with sharp eyes.

Before Shen Chuhan could reply, Song Qinghuan, who was on the side, spoke in a clear and gentle voice, "Sister Sihuang, don't you know what's going on? Shen Xiangneng and I can walk together. Speaking of which, you can be regarded as Sihuangjie thanks to

Song Qingyu frowned, staring at her vigilantly, "What do you mean?"

Song Qinghuan slightly pursed her lips, and said in a cold voice, "Back then, Prime Minister Shen went to Yu Country to ask for marriage, if you hadn't been crying and begging Father to marry you to Liang Country, perhaps, the situation would indeed be different now .”
