Chapter 929 Palace Banquet ([-])

Chapter 929: Palace Banquet ([-])

Zhang Shangshu whispered in his daughter's ear and said anxiously: "Now is the best opportunity. After the emperor returns to the imperial capital, it will be extremely difficult to see Shengyan again. Daughter, you must fight for the Zhang family."

"I, I..." Zhang Xiner hesitated, her heart beating wildly.

She raised her head, glanced quickly at the man in black in the upper position, then shook her head desperately with a blushing face, "No, my daughter really can't!"

"You..." Zhang Shangshu looked at his daughter sullenly, with a look of indisputable disappointment, staring secretly at Zhang Xiner, shaking his head and sighing, "Hey, I can't live up to it!"

Xin'er's eyes were full of grievances, "I'm sorry father, my daughter doesn't want to, it's just, it's just that my daughter really can't control herself."

"My lord, our emperor is a little different from other emperors. I think we should not be self-defeating." Mrs. Zhang next to her said, although she also wanted her daughter to marry the best Mr. Ruyi in the world.

But the premise is that this Ruyi Langjun must also have a heart.

"My concubine's humble opinion, our emperor is full of eyes only for the queen, and we can't tolerate other women at all. We'd better stick to our duty, and don't cause chaos because of temporary lust." Mrs. Zhang whispered to her husband. He raised it in his ear, while holding his daughter's trembling hand, stroking and comforting her.

But Zhang Shangshu didn't take it seriously, and reprimanded in a low voice, "A woman's opinion."

A woman doesn't understand a man's heart. In this world, as long as a man of some status, who doesn't have three wives and four concubines?

What's more, the Ninth Five-Year Lord, the lord of the world, he can love the queen alone. Of course, their queen is indeed worthy of the Sacred Heart's sole favor. There is only one person in the middle palace.

Don't say anything else, what's the proper way?

Mrs. Zhang only smiled slightly, and did not argue with her husband again.

Zhang Xiner is not the only woman in this situation at the banquet below. In such an occasion, everyone wants to win the top spot, but facing this man, no one has the guts to guarantee that they can deal with it freely...

Just like Zhang Xin'er, when they appeared within his field of vision, they didn't even breathe their own!

This man is like the Yeye sun, standing above the sky and the earth, so dazzling, that only the bright moon can stand beside him.

Everyone below had their own thoughts, but Bei Chenyan, who was in charge, was in high spirits, as if he was a little absent-minded, and even a little tired of coping with the toasts of the courtiers, his eyes glanced out from time to time, and with the melodious music, his thoughts flew to nowhere .

After a while, the sound of silk and bamboo stopped, and the players playing music in the hall retreated.

Prince Heng Tantaiqing exchanged glances with several ministers around him, and Qi Qi looked at Bei Chenyan.

Under the signal of Tan Taiqing's eyes, Wei Sicheng got up, cupped his hands towards Bei Chenyan and said, "Your Majesty, I dare to ask, why I haven't seen the Queen Empress, and I haven't seen the Empress at the palace banquet for several days, but What dissatisfaction do you have with the ministers?"

Bei Chenyan glanced down.

Wei Sicheng felt a high mountain pressing down on his head, and suddenly had difficulty breathing, and a slight chill appeared on his back uncontrollably. Under Bei Chenyan's light glance, he felt a sense of embarrassment that his mind had been completely separated in the world.

He really wanted to take back the slightly suspicious words just now, but he also knew that at this time, it's better not to say anything.

Bei Chenyan looked at him expressionlessly for a few seconds, and then said in a soft voice, "The empress likes to be quiet, but doesn't like places where people are noisy. What objection does Wei Qing have?"

Although the voice was light, everyone could hear the murderous aura hidden in it, as well as the undeniable voice of maintenance.

The atmosphere of Qianqing Hall, where singing and dancing was originally peaceful, was suddenly cold, and everyone quickly stopped the smiles on their faces.

"My minister is terrified, but I dare not." Wei Sicheng's heart skipped a beat!
He hurriedly attended and stood in the center of the hall, knelt down and kowtowed and said, "I have heard about the queen's empress for a long time, and I respect her in my heart, but I have never been lucky enough to see Tianyan. I think that the emperor and empress will return to the imperial capital soon. It’s a pity, that’s why I asked this question.”

Bei Chenyan's dark eyes seemed to be deep, and he sat on the high seat, looking at Wei Sicheng without saying a word, making it impossible to see his thoughts.

Wei Sicheng lowered his head, the beating frequency of his heart gradually increased, and there was faint sweat on his forehead.

All the ministers exchanged glances silently, and the hall was completely silent.

Tan Taiqing did not expect that just a small temptation would provoke Bei Chenyan to be so angry.

Ling Xiyue, as the queen of the middle palace, unless she is seriously ill and unable to get up, or is not in the palace, it is inappropriate not to show up, and it will be detrimental to the queen's virtue.

The courtiers in the court also knew that Ling Xiyue had always been in the royal city, and there was no discomfort at all.If she didn't show up once, she might be involved in urgent matters, which is reasonable, but in the past few days of palace banquets, she has not been seen every time, because she has greatly lost her post as a queen, and it is very inappropriate.

What's more, people have to doubt in their hearts, is it because the emperor and empress are at odds?
How else could it be so!

Not only Tan Taiqing, but all the ministers didn't expect that Bei Chenyan would be so displeased just by insinuating and probing. Originally, the whole night was considered to be a joy for Jun Anchen, but after such a sentence, the atmosphere turned sharply down.

And Bei Chenyan's words directly blocked everyone's chaotic speculation.

There is no complicated reason, just because she likes to be quiet, he just let her be at ease, the implication of "do not like people's noise", there is a big warning, don't let people who don't have eyes approach her, chatter Noisy meaning!
It wasn't until the sweat on Wei Sicheng's forehead began to drip to the ground that Bei Chenyan said, "Just do what you want."

"Yes—" Wei Sicheng got up tremblingly, and went back to the seat with trembling legs, still feeling uneasy.

Next time, please don't let him come out like this, Bei Chenyan is not Tantai Hanze!
Wei Sicheng gave Tan Taiqing a dark look, with lingering fear in his heart.

Tan Taiqing received Wei Sicheng's eyes, and flickered slightly. In the next second, a warm smile quickly appeared on his face, and he stood up with a wine bottle in his hand and said respectfully to Beichen: "The emperor calms down, the queen's empress is famous far and wide, all ministers I just want to pay my respects to the empress's face, I don't mean to offend."

It's time for him to stand up and ease the stiff atmosphere in the Qianqing Palace.

"The little girl is not talented, so I prepared a song and dance for the emperor and the empress." He also specifically mentioned Ling Xiyue, and said with a smile: "I also ask the emperor to allow it."

Of course, all the ministers also bought Tan Taiqing's face, and immediately laughed happily, and someone said: "I have heard for a long time that Princess Yuyao's piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry, books, rituals and music are all familiar with everything, and her dancing skills are even better. Absolutely."

Many people echoed: "Yes, yes."

……

Everyone was looking forward to it, and the scene of harmony just now quickly resumed during the palace banquet.

But at this moment, a long voice suddenly came from outside the palace door: "The empress has arrived—"
