Chapter 99

The next day, Shangguan Lianniang slept until Sishi before being put up by Qi Muyuan.Originally, Shangguan Lianniang had woken up a long time ago, but Qi Muyuan refused to let her get up. Shangguan Lianniang excused that she was hungry, so Qi Muyuan brought food to the bedside, fed it to Shangguan Lianniang, and let Shangguan Lianniang eat again. Mother sleeps.

Shangguan Lianniang had never seen such a rascal Qi Muyuan before, she couldn't hold back him, so she fell asleep on the bed again.Fortunately, her mind is still not very clear, and she can sleep well.

When she got up at Sishi, Shangguan Lianniang was fed a bowl of light lean meat porridge by Qi Muyuan, and then she began to dress up and prepare to go to the palace.

Because the palace cannot bring many people in, Shangguan Lianniang takes Yingsui with her.It's not that she doesn't want Yeyuan to be with her, but because the King Xian will definitely be present at the celebration banquet. Shangguan Lianniang doesn't know if King Xian doubts Yingsui, so she takes Yingsui with her. Regain the trust of the virtuous king.

In this way, after getting ready, it was three o'clock, Qi Muyuan took Lu Lianying, Shangguan Lianniang took Yingsui, and the four went to the palace together.

When they arrived, many carriages had already parked outside the palace, presumably many people were already sitting inside and waiting.After all, it was the emperor's banquet, and everyone was eager to arrive early, so how could they dare to make a grand finale?

When Qi Muyuan and Shangguan Lianniang got off the carriage, they happened to see Zhang Cheng and Zhang Xuan.

Today's Zhang Xuan is dressed fresh and bright, showing all the beauty of a woman of this age.When Zhang Xuan saw Shangguan Lianniang, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across Zhang Xuan's face, but when he saw Qi Muyuan, this unnaturalness turned into stiffness.Obviously, Zhang Xuan still remembered the kick that Qi Muyuan kicked her that day.

There was nothing unusual about Zhang Cheng, seeing Qi Muyuan was still smiling: "General Qi, what a coincidence!"

Hearing this, Qi Muyuan nodded coldly, seeing that Shangguan Lianniang wanted to laugh.

Zhang Cheng was not annoyed by Qi Muyuan's slap in the face. As the saying goes, a dog that bites does not bark, and Zhang Cheng really interpreted this sentence vividly.

"General Qi is really young, promising and brave! This celebration banquet was specially held by the emperor for General Qi. I think in the emperor's heart, General Qi's status is getting higher and higher. In the future, if there is something to rely on General Qi, please invite General Qi, don't refuse!"

"Your Prime Minister is joking." Qi Muyuan replied indifferently, and Qi Muyuan didn't even want to look at Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng knew that Qi Muyuan didn't want to talk to him, so he didn't bother him any more, and after being polite again, he led Zhang Xuan into the palace first.Qi Muyuan and Shangguan Lianniang followed unhurriedly, looking at the buildings of the palace from time to time, as if they were here to enjoy the scenery.

The celebration banquet was held in the Daming Palace, and when Qi Muyuan and his party arrived at the Daming Palace, there were already many people sitting inside.

When they reached their seats and sat down, Qi Muyuan and Shangguan Lianniang nodded their greetings to Shangguan Zhenyu one after another, and then stayed quietly in their seats waiting for the emperor's arrival without saying a word.

"The emperor is here! The empress is here! The jade concubine is here!"

The voice of Eunuch Liu, the great eunuch, sounded from outside, and as the sharp voice fell, two figures of bright yellow and one of lavender slowly approached.

The Empress and Concubine Yu walked on both sides of the Emperor. Compared with the Empress, Concubine Yu looked more confident.If it wasn't for the bright yellow and lavender, others would think that Concubine Yugui is the master of the palace and the mother of the world.

The three of them walked to the main seat and sat down. The emperor glanced at everyone, stayed on Qi Muyuan for a while, and then retracted his gaze without a trace.

"Today is a celebration banquet held to celebrate the victory of General Qi Muyuan in suppressing the bandits! Qi Aiqing was brave and resourceful, and with the force of thunder, wiped out the bandits that many people in the court could not get rid of. For the peace of the capital. You have contributed a lot! Now, raise your glass to Qi Aiqing!"

After the words were finished, the emperor raised the wine glass first, and everyone dared not lag behind, so they quickly raised the wine glass to signal to Qi Muyuan.Only the Xian Wang had a gloomy expression, and looked at Qi Muyuan with malicious intent, but when his eyes fell on Shangguan Lianniang, a little complexity appeared in the Xian Wang's eyes.Obviously, King Xian still remembered Shangguan Lianniang pleading for him.On one side, the King of Chu sat on a chair tiltedly, looking at the various living beings in the Daming Palace with a playful face, and the interest in his eyes was extremely strong.

Seeing this, Qi Muyuan's expression was indifferent, but he also drank the glass of wine.

The emperor seemed to be in a good mood today, he laughed and said, "Okay! In the future, all Ai Qing should learn more from Qi Aiqing!"

Hearing this, everyone smiled and said yes.Only they themselves know whether they are sincere or fake.

After some polite words, the singing and dancing came up.Young women, wearing pink gauze skirts, danced lightly in the center of Daming Palace, their movements were soft, and their eyes were as charming as silk.Such a beautiful scene made many people's hearts flutter when they saw it.

Just as they were excited, a guard ran in from outside the Daming Palace.

The emperor raised his hand and stopped singing and dancing, his expression was very displeased: "Today is a celebration banquet, didn't I say that you should not disturb if you have nothing to do?"

Hearing these words, the guard lowered his head and said: "Go back to the emperor, the envoys of Xicang are out to see you."

"Oh? Really? Hurry up, please come in!" That's what he said, but the emperor's face was full of indifference, as if he knew that the envoy from Xi Cang would come now.

The guards received the order and quickly invited the Xicang envoys in.

There were two people who came in, the one in front was about fifty years old, his gray beard showed the vicissitudes he had seen.There is also a younger one following behind. Although the young man looks ordinary, he has an extraordinary demeanor in his gestures, and he has an aura that cannot be ignored.

Almost at a glance, Shangguan Lianniang recognized that the young man was the one who spoke for her in Tianxiangju!
The man seemed to have sensed Shangguan Lianniang's gaze. The moment he saw Shangguan Lianniang, the man's eyes lit up, and they were burning hot.Then thinking of the current environment, he immediately lowered his head again, but his eyes still glanced at Shangguan Lianniang from time to time, which made Qi Muyuan furious.

When Qi Muyuan left that day, the man had already quietly disappeared, so Qi Muyuan didn't know that this man had spoken for Shangguan Lianniang.Seeing the fiery gaze of the man now, Qi Muyuan thought that the man was moved by Shangguan Lianniang's appearance, and his teeth itched with anger.

Fortunately, everyone's eyes fell on the old man in front, and no one noticed the weird atmosphere circulating among the three.

Of course, there is one exception.

Zhang Xuan has always been a vengeful person, that day when the man came out to defend Shangguan Lianniang, her plan failed, so she kept him in her heart.Seeing the man today, Zhang Xuan recognized him instantly.Seeing the man's eyes looking at Shangguan Lianniang again, Zhang Xuan felt concerned.
