Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 25
The palace banquet continued, and the guests drank to their heart's content, which was regarded as a bond of affection.

Emperor Zhaoyi, who was seated above, also had a chat with Empress Yuan, accepting toasts from the family from time to time, and the hall was full of excitement and voices.

Baili Jiuge didn't want to mix anything up, and he didn't even want to meet the people in Fengguo General's Mansion face to face. He just ate food quietly with Yin Liehuo and chatted briefly.

Just when everyone was full of wine and food, I saw Rong Hui coming out after tidying up his appearance, smiling like peaches and plums, eyes like apricot blossoms with radio waves, and a coquettish and extravagant appearance, which caused many young ladies to stare at him. he.

Satisfied with this feeling of being envied, Rong Hui bowed to Emperor Zhaoyi, who was sitting in the seat, and asked for instructions in that soft and greasy voice: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask for."

"Oh?" Emperor Zhaoyi hummed with great interest.

Rong Hui said: "I have a crush on the third lady of Fengguo General's Mansion, and I want to marry her as a concubine. I also ask the emperor to issue an order to make it happen."

All was silent for a moment, and everyone thought that the raging rumors in the neighborhood recently were really nothing compared to seeing Mr. Rong beg for a marriage with their own eyes, but what is so good about the third lady of Baili's family that she can be married to Mr. Rong? The eye of a master.

Everyone would rather think that this young master Rong is tired of aesthetics, so he just wants to find a rough girl who can't be more ordinary than ordinary for a change.

Just waiting for Emperor Zhaoyi to speak, who would have thought that suddenly a handsome figure rushed up quickly, screaming: "Brother Emperor, no marriage is allowed! No marriage is allowed!"

I saw Yin Ruyi rushing up like he had eaten gunpowder, and yelled at Emperor Zhaoyi: "Sister Chen, you are not allowed to marry that ugly bastard Baili Jiuge to Rong Hui, even if you are a roommate!"

Everyone immediately became interested, watching this seemingly good show of "taking the husband" without blinking an eye.Only Yin Haochen, who was drinking heavily during the banquet, frowned and stared at Yin Ruyi dissatisfied.

Emperor Zhaoyi seemed troubled, "Ruyi, what are you doing?"

"Don't do anything, there is no need to discuss this matter anyway, otherwise I will cry for you!" Yin Ruyi yelled wildly.

Upon hearing the word "cry", Emperor Zhaoyi became frightened.He has always loved this younger sister very much, although her temper is really a bit arrogant, but as long as it is not an important matter of the country, he will rely on her, but it seems that it is not appropriate to save Rong Hui's face like this.

During the banquet, Prime Minister Rong You just got up and said, "Your Majesty, the kid is messing around. It's because of the lax discipline of the old minister. Please don't accept him." His son is going to marry that ugly girl of Baili Jiuge?impossible!His Rong family would not let such a woman into the house.

As soon as Emperor Zhaoyi saw that Prime Minister Rong You had paved the steps for him, he quickly said: "Master You is too serious, young people, young and vigorous, I understand." Then he said to Yin Ruyi: "Don't make trouble, I understand." Promise you are."

Yin Ruyi immediately smiled, then gave Baili Jiuge a sideways look with contempt, turned and went back to the seat.

Rong Hui was turned away, and had to pretend to be magnanimous, and kept laughing, but in his heart he wished that Yin Ruyi could be strangled to death and thrown to the dogs.

This time, all eyes fell on Baili Jiuge's face again. This was a more sarcastic, more mocking, and more contemptuous look than ever before, overwhelming her slender body, and filled her body like a tide. ribcage.They laughed at how her marriage had been ruined twice, at being scolded as an "ugly monster" over and over again, and at how she still pretended to be calm even now.

Baili Jiuge hummed lightly, as if he didn't realize it.

She didn't pretend to be calm, but she was so disappointed that she wouldn't feel anything anymore.

Anyway, she doesn't want to marry Rong Hui's flirtatious kind, it's better if she doesn't marry, and she has to thank that domineering Yin Ruyi for messing things up!

In the main hall, there were finally some people who couldn't bear to see how Baili Jiuge was treated, and the deep and cold voice broke through the sighs: "Brother Emperor, I think that Baili Jiuge should be compensated."

When the voice sounded, Baili Jiuge was also a little dazed.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw a pair of gloomy and cold eyes staring at her, but looked away because of her bright eyes looking directly at her. The deep eyes were filled with the color of guilt, which was particularly dazzling in the firelight.

Baili Jiuge smiled helplessly.Yin Haochen, why are you so guilty?You are just like the worldly people.

Empress Yuan, who was seated in the seat, also spoke, with a majestic but considerate voice: "The concubine thinks that the king's words are reasonable, and he should give Baili Jiuge some compensation."

Emperor Zhaoyi looked at her and asked, "Then how do you think you should compensate?"

Empress Yuan thought for a while, and replied, "You might as well give Baili Jiuge a death token."

As soon as these words came out, there were many gasping voices in the audience.It should be known that the death-free token of the Great Shang Kingdom will never be given to anyone casually. Even Baili Yue, the general of Fengguo, was not rewarded. He has repeatedly made outstanding achievements and was awarded the token of avoiding death.Compared with Baili Weiming, what virtue does Baili Jiuge have to get such an honor?
Yin Haochen's icy voice showed an unquestionable sharpness: "My brother thinks that what Huang Jie said is true."

Empress Yuan smiled squarely: "The concubine thinks that both love and reason should make up for Baili Jiuge."

Emperor Zhaoyi seemed to be hesitant, pondered for a long time, but still hadn't made a decision, suddenly a servant rushed over and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, Concubine Ping's body cold has flared up again."

But seeing that Emperor Zhaoyi's complexion changed immediately, he hurriedly got up and said to everyone: "Concubine Ping is not feeling well, I want to go back to accompany Concubine, the banquet will end here."

Then he said to Empress Yuan: "You have done this for me, so you don't need to ask." Then he hurried away with the servant.

Because of this unexpected situation, the palace banquet had to end, and the Empress Yuan gave Baili Jiuge a gold medal for avoiding death in front of everyone.

When she took the heavy token of avoiding death with both hands, she felt very senseless in her heart, no matter how unusual this thing is, is there a ghost?Just relying on these people in the imperial capital, wanting to kill her is like a dream!
However, Empress Yuan's dedication was beyond her expectation.I heard that Empress Yuan of Dashang has a clear sense of rewards and punishments and has a unique vision. Could it be that Empress Yuan is willing to reward her for her appearance today?

Baili Jiuge smiled and forgot about it.
