The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 656 Mid-Autumn Festival Killing Night (1)
Mentioning this matter, the faces of orange red and light green also became obviously gloomy.

"It's none of your business, just pretend you don't know!" Chu Xunyang said, but with a completely indifferent expression, he just leaned back in the sedan chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Seeing her like this, the girls really had nothing to do, so they could only shut up resentfully.

In order to facilitate the viewing of the moon at night, this day's banquet was directly held in the imperial garden.

When they arrived at the place, Chu Xunyang and Chu Yuexin got out of the sedan chair one after another, and they parted ways tacitly, each going their own way.

It was still early for the banquet, and the ladies in twos and threes in the garden gathered together to chat and laugh.

Seeing the sedan chairs of Chu Xunyang and Chu Yuexin arriving, many people immediately looked sideways at them. Baptized by many ill-intentioned gazes, the girls couldn't help but turn black again.

Chu Xunyang did not go into the crowd, but turned a corner and entered the garden next to him.

A few ladies who were whispering together came to welcome Chu Yuexin, and a group of people jokingly asked for news.

"I heard that Prince Nanhua has visited His Highness many times before. Could it be that he went for Princess Xunyang at that time?" Miss Kong, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, asked with her veil covered, her tone half joking. , and the other half has a sour taste that can't be concealed.

Although no one wants to leave their hometown and marry far away, the meaning of marrying the prince of a country is completely different.

"I think it's probably done." Another Miss Li came up to her and echoed her. She gave Chu Yuexin a meaningful look and said, "Why don't we all say that Princess Xunyang is blessed? We will be here when we are in the boudoir. The favor and love of His Royal Highness, even the marriage is extraordinary, once this matter is facilitated, she will soar into the sky in the future, isn't that the mother of a country?"

"Who says it's not!" Miss Kong interjected, she rolled her eyes as she spoke, stepped forward and tugged on Chu Yuexin's sleeve, looked around, and lowered her voice, "Second Princess, didn't someone say that Xunyang County Do the lord and Master Yanling agree? Why do you want to discuss marriage with Prince Nanhua now? What is going on here?"

Chu Yuexin frowned, and said in a low voice with displeasure: "Ladies and gentlemen, be careful, my father did not admit this matter, it is all rumors, if your reputation of ruining Xunyang reaches my father's ears Rico is not good."

Her tone was not harsh, nor was there any momentum in her expression.

The ladies just looked at her identity, so they were polite, but no one took her advice seriously, but they didn't dare to be careless when they heard her mention Chu Yi'an. The weak and incompetent appearance also felt boring, and they all dispersed.

When these people dispersed, she was accompanied by the big maidservant Rushui and said gloatingly: "Now that the outside world has spread like that, even the Emperor and His Royal Highness may not be able to suppress it if they want to suppress it. Just now what the ladies said It's not unreasonable, if Princess Xunyang really married far away - so what if she has a higher status there? In our mansion, only the princess is the real golden branch and jade leaf!"

The former servant girl next to Chu Yuexin was executed for breaking the scandal of Concubine Qing. Rushui only brought this up recently, and she spared no effort to please her master.

Chu Yuexin had a lot of complaints about Chu Xunyang in her heart, but she didn't reprimand her, but she just sneered coldly when she heard the words, and said: "No matter who she is going to marry, she will leave the house sooner or later. What are you fighting with her for?"

Rushui has always known that she is dissatisfied with Chu Xunyang, but she never thought that she would be so careless about this matter. Just as she was surprised, another gust of fragrant wind hit her.

Chu Yuexin hurriedly gathered her mind and looked up, only to see Shi Shiran, who was dressed up, walked over with the help of her maidservant.

Zheng Duo was rewarded by the emperor for leading the troops to quell Changshun Fan, and the Zheng family followed suit, so Zheng Yan also had the potential to rise with the tide, with high spirits on her face.

"Auspicious princess!" Zheng Yan came over and bowed her knees, her expression was very enthusiastic.

"Miss Zheng!" Chu Yuexin smiled softly, and nodded to her.

Zheng Yan looked around and said, "Is the Princess alone? I happen to be alone too. There are so many people here, let's go for a walk somewhere else?"

Chu Yuexin has a dull temper and doesn't have many friends outside, it's no accident that Zheng Yan would take the initiative to find her.

Looking at the smiling face of the other party, she thought to herself for a moment, then nodded shyly and said: "Okay!"

Zheng Yan smiled, her eyes flashed, then she chatted enthusiastically with her and walked to the garden next to her.

It was exactly this road that Chu Xunyang took before, and Chu Yuexin just pretended not to notice, and walked forward while listening to Zheng Yan's words.

The two walked forward for a while, and suddenly Zheng Yan let out an exclamation, pointing to a small path hidden among flowers in the distance and said: "Over there—it seems to be Princess Xunyang and Miss Huo!"

Chu Yuexin originally thought that the person Chu Xunyang wanted to meet here would be Mr. Yanling, but she didn't expect to run into her with Huo Qing'er.

The two of them over there didn't know if they met by chance or had been chatting for a while, anyway, when Chu Yuexin looked over, it happened that Huo Qing'er strayed away from Chu Xunyang's side and walked quickly towards this side with his head lowered.

Chu Xunyang stood where he was but didn't move, and then continued to walk forward.

This is the only way to go to the Royal Garden, Huo Qing'er walked very quickly, and inevitably met the two of them face to face.

At that time, she was walking quickly with her head buried, never expecting to meet someone here, when she suddenly looked up and saw Zheng Yan and Chu Yuexin——

She and Zheng Yan had long been enmity, but she missed the two of them without saying a word, and walked away quickly with a slightly embarrassed expression.

"Why are Ms. Huo's eye circles red?" Zheng Yan stared at her back, murmuring in confusion.

However, Chu Yuexin was only thinking in her heart and didn't pick up the fight.

When the moon slowly emerged from the western sky, the banquet in the imperial garden was about to start. People walking around walked back in groups, laughing and laughing endlessly, and there was a festive atmosphere in the festival.

Just when everyone was unprepared, someone's maid suddenly let out a shrill scream, breaking the tranquility of the night.

The moonlight in the sky seemed to be torn in two by the shrill scream.

Everyone's footsteps froze, and although the whole imperial garden was crowded with people, it was still and there was no human voice.

"Ah—" After a while, the sharp female voice with infinite fear sounded again, "Dead—dead! There—there seems to be a dead person!"
