The First Daughter Reborn: The Snake Queen is not easy to mess with

Chapter 115 The King of Filial Piety Washing the Dust Banquet (2)

After Qi Sheng returned to the mansion, he was stopped by Qi Meizhen, who was guarding the door early, and she laughed and took Qi Sheng's arm, and said expectantly, "Daddy, how are you? Did you talk about the cleansing banquet?" "

All of a sudden, they would talk about the cleansing feast, and it was all Qi Meizhen's idea. She told Qi Sheng that it was the queen's idea for her, but Qi Meizhen didn't tell Qi Sheng about the specific idea, she just begged Qi Sheng It is enough to propose to the emperor in the early court.

"Now that I've said it, can you still leave your business behind?" Qi Sheng looked at his precious daughter helplessly, and said.

Qi Meizhen heard a satisfied smile appearing on the back, and said: "Daddy is so kind." After that, she got rid of Qi Sheng, and walked away happily, seeing Qi Sheng shaking his head for a while.

As the protagonist, Li Xiaochuan only found out about this matter the next day, and it was the servants of the Governor's Mansion who informed him of Li Xiaochuan's matter. Hearing that what the servants said was the emperor's will, Li Xiaochuan couldn't help but sneer. Without looking at the servant, he said, "The emperor's will? I thought it was the order given to me by the father-in-law."

The servant who was sent did not dare to speak, and waited silently for Li Xiaochuan's response with his head down.

Li Xiaochuan played with the fan in his hand, and after a while he said lightly: "I will go, you can go."

"Yes."

After that servant returned to the mansion of the head of the state, he told Qi Sheng everything that Li Xiaochuan said back word for word. After hearing this, Qi Sheng narrowed his scheming eyes, and after a while he snorted and said: " The meaning of Prince Xiao's words is really very interesting."

Some things are not said, but everyone knows it very clearly.

Prince Xiao returned from the frontier fortress with a great victory. He specially invited all the ministers in the palace to celebrate together, and all the female relatives can participate together. Even Meng Yizhen was included in the invitation list. The dust-cleaning banquet was held in the imperial garden. The atmosphere, specially decorated with lanterns, looks very atmospheric.

Meng Yizhen entered the imperial garden in a white dress, and immediately saw some pretty acquaintances in the crowd. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Meng Yizhen hid in an inconspicuous place as soon as he came in. He kept his head down and ate his snacks.

Seeing that even the emperor and empress had arrived, yet Prince Xiao had not yet arrived, this made the crowd inevitably suspicious. Just when the emperor was a little impatient and called the eunuch to call Li Xiaochuan, There was a sound of notification from outside.

"Prince Xiao is here!"

It was only at this time that Meng Yizhen was willing to raise his head. Following the eyes of everyone, a white figure appeared in sight. He was wearing a white robe, holding a lupine, with a hypocritical smile on his face, walking step by step. When he came in, he didn't look like the God of War prince who frightened the enemy on the battlefield, but an ordinary handsome young man.

Thinking about it, Meng Yi couldn't help curling the corners of his lips.

The moment she was in a daze, you walked straight towards her without a trace of your figure, and under everyone's gaze, you slowly sat beside her, and it was only at this time that other people discovered that Meng Yi really existed.

The emperor didn't expect Li Xiaochuan to sit directly next to Meng Yizhen like this, coughed lightly and said: "Xiaochuan, today is your dust-cleaning banquet, it seems inappropriate for you to sit there, why don't you sit next to me Come down."

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Li Xiaochuan smiled indifferently and refused: "No problem, since it is a cleansing banquet, I hope the emperor can let me come as I feel comfortable."

Although the emperor was very upset seeing Li Xiaochuan sitting in that position, there was no other way, the other party had already spoken like this, the emperor could only follow Li Xiaochuan's wishes.

According to the arrangement, Li Xiaochuan sat in the first seat next to the emperor, and beside her was Qi Meizhen who had been arranged by Qi Sheng. It's just that she didn't expect that the other party not only didn't look at her, but also went to Meng Yizhen in the corner, and Dang even stared at Meng Yizhen fiercely for a long time.

Now even if Meng Yizhen wanted to keep a low profile, he couldn't keep a low profile.

He couldn't help but sighed, and said in a voice that could be heard by the two of them: "It's such a wonderful dust-cleaning banquet, but it was disturbed because of the prince's randomness." Meng Yi really saw the reaction of the people and knew it well.

Hearing Meng Yizhen's sigh, Li Xiaochuan couldn't help but twitched his lips, turned his head to look at Meng Yizhen and said: "My wangfei and this king really have a good understanding, and they are both dressed in plain white today, it's not a loss that I am my wangfei."

A suspicious blush flashed across Meng Yizhen's cheeks when he was told by Li Xiaochuan, so he had no choice but to hold the wine glass to cover up his embarrassing look, then he gave Li Xiaochuan a sneaky look, Li Xiaochuan was stared at by Meng Yizhen, he was in a very good mood, drink a glass of wine Belly refreshed.

After the banquet was announced, a group of dancers came up to dance, and then the ministers laughed and drank and chatted. The atmosphere was very harmonious, except for a few people with ulterior motives.

Among the people who participated in the cleansing banquet this time, Prince Li Qichuan and Eighth Prince Li Yuchuan were with Shengli. Shengli hadn't seen Meng Yizhen for a long time. Pulling back, he couldn't help but look at him with some doubts.

The reason why Li Yuchuan brought Shengli here this time was also because he wanted to show her the scene in the palace, but he didn't expect that Shengli was a girl who didn't understand any rules, and she almost caused trouble for him as soon as she came in. He could only pull her along every step of the way, otherwise, following her casual appearance, it would be a matter of time before she got caught.

As soon as Li Yuchuan came in, he was looking for Meng Yizhen's shadow. He had seen the white figure earlier, and kept paying attention to that direction after he sat down. Don't care about what's going on around you.

But Li Qichuan didn't bring Meng Yiwan over this time, and wanted to sit next to Meng Yizhen several times, but he never had the courage, and just as he was hesitating, someone had already taken the seat first, which made Li Qichuan extremely frustrated.

"Your Majesty, Empress, my daughter has always worshiped Prince Xiao, and today I specially prepared a song for Prince Xiao."

When the dancer girl retreated, Qi Meizhen boldly walked up, and looked shyly at Li Xiaochuan's direction while talking. Unfortunately, the other party kept drooping his eyes and drinking wine as if he had never heard of it, and didn't appreciate it. A little sad.

Qi Meizhen is the empress's niece, who doesn't appreciate it this time, she has the essentials, and said jokingly: "On weekdays, my aunt wants to listen to you play a piece of music, but she excuses it with the excuse that she is not feeling well. It is the turn of Prince Xiao. Why did you take the initiative, it seems that my aunt is not half as good as Prince Xiao."

The queen's ridicule made Qi Meizhen blush, and she called her aunt coquettishly, her eyes seemed to fall on Li Xiaochuan's body, the meaning was unclear.

"Okay, okay, since it's prepared for Prince Xiao, let's start." The queen stopped joking with Qi Meizhen and said with a smile.

Qi Meizhen blessed her body, took the pipa handed over by the maid, hugged it in her arms, and lightly changed the angle, forming an appearance of still holding the pipa half-hidden, very pleasing to the eye.

The clear and deep voice of the pipa came out from Qi Meizhen's fingertips, and then, accompanied by Qi Meizhen's singing, the entire imperial garden fell silent.

Those who are interested will be able to tell that what Qi Meizhen is singing this time is a lovesickness.

It's a song about love, when she sings, her eyes are always on Li Xiaochuan, even a simple-minded person can see what's on Qi Meizhen's mind.

Unfortunately, Li Xiaochuan, who is the protagonist, not only did not take a look at Qi Meizhen from the beginning to the end, but also took a piece of snack for Meng Yizhen from his table and put it on the plate in front of her, and turned his head to Meng Yizhen. Come on with a nice smile.

And it was just such a smile that made Qi Meizhen's rhythm a little off, which directly lowered the quality of the whole song.

Even so, after the end, everyone present gave Qi Meizhen a warm applause, but Qi Meizhen lowered her eyes to bless the emperor and empress, and then walked back to her place without saying a word, her hurt expression couldn't be more obvious .

"I'm leaving for a while."

Meng Yizhen saw that after Qi Meizhen there were other girls in the boudoir eager to try on the stage, after whispering to Li Xiaochuan, he quietly left the imperial garden.

Just by looking at the eyes of people looking at her from time to time, one can tell that if she stays tonight, she will inevitably compete with a bunch of ladies in the boudoir for Li Xiaochuan. said her head, and left directly, she believed that even if other people asked, Li Xiaochuan would be able to solve it very well.

After leaving the imperial garden, Meng Yizhen wandered around, finally sat on a stone in the dark, rested his feet, and then went straight back to the bedroom.

Meng Yizhen, who was resting, suddenly heard a rush of footsteps followed by the voices of two maidservants.

"Hurry up and stop messing around, if something goes wrong later, the lady will punish us again!"

A servant girl accidentally tripped and almost spilled the wine in the jug in her hand. Another servant girl hurriedly supported her and blamed her.

The maid who almost tripped looked nervously at the other party and said tremblingly: "Do you think we will offend Prince Xiao afterwards and snap us in a fit of anger?"

After hearing this, the fierce maid slapped the timid maid, stared at her eyes and said solemnly: "If the prince of Xiao gets involved with our young lady, he will definitely marry her by then, so why would he blame the two of us?" Little maid? Well, let's go!"

After finishing speaking, the fierce servant girl pushed the timid servant girl away in a hurry.

Meng Yizhen came out of the grass at this time, looked thoughtfully at the figures of the two servant girls in the dark, thought for a while, and followed behind them.

She was rather curious as to who it was that even the majestic Prince Xiao dared to plot against.
