Long Song Fenghua: The Demon Queen Confused the King's Heart

Chapter 253 Not as Scary as Rumors Say

There was a moment of silence around, and the emperor's voice suddenly darkened, "Are you teasing me?"

The concubines and concubines in the harem have tried their best to compete for favor for thousands of years, and the tricks are endless.

It's just that it's not good when to play this trick, but at this time, it must be self-defeating.The queen glanced at Mu Baozheng's face with a bit of contempt before making her a noble person. She was just pregnant, so she couldn't restrain her ambition so much?

"Your majesty, don't misunderstand my concubine. At first, my concubine didn't think there was anything unusual about this jade pendant. It's just that... I ask the emperor to look at the bright place again!"

Mu Baozheng spoke sincerely, and it was hard not to believe what he said.

The emperor temporarily picked up the jade pendant, looked at the bright place, and immediately changed his expression.

The queen, who was close to the emperor, saw this, and looked over, her face froze for a moment——

After aiming at the bright spot, handwriting was faintly displayed on the jade pendant, and the detailed content engraved on it was to assassinate the emperor tonight!

"What Mr. Jing said is true?" The queen asked vigilantly.

Mu Baozheng knelt down and could not afford to kneel, and his words were resounding, "I would like to guarantee my life, and everything I said is true."

"Your majesty..." The queen tightened her brows, and she couldn't help but feel 12 worries in her heart.

The content on the jade pendant has been very clear to everyone, Mu Changge quietly turned his gaze to Mu Baozheng, and from the corner of his eye, he looked around again.

Neither the purse nor the jade pendant inside was something that could be obtained in the palace.

But now Mu Baozheng no longer has any support outside the palace.For Mu Baozheng who has no power at all inside and outside the palace, if he wants to hide these two things from outside the palace, it may be more difficult than reaching the sky.

If one wanted to find the most reasonable explanation, someone must have brought these two things to the palace for Mu Baozheng.

Moreover, this person must have an unusual identity, the palace is different from other places, even if it is a small purse, it is not so easy to get in without anyone noticing.

Mu Changge seemed indifferent, but his eyes had already secretly observed everyone around him.

Who would be the person who will form an alliance with Mu Baozheng...

Su Qingrou lowered her voice, "How can you be sure that that person must not be Concubine Shu?"

Mu Changge shook her head lightly. When the jade pendant was presented just now, she could see clearly from the secret. The astonishment and doubt in Concubine Li Shu's eyes were obviously not something that could be faked.

Quietly withdrawing his gaze from Concubine Li Shu, Mu Changge had already raised his vigilance in his heart.

There is no doubt that it is self-evident who Mu Baozheng is targeting with this move.

The worry in the queen's eyes was revealed without any concealment, and she signaled to the emperor whether the banquet should end here, and then ordered the person in charge of the guards to send more manpower.

The emperor pondered in his heart, then he rejected the empress's proposal, and said: "Send more people to guard inside and outside. I want to see where the assassins come from who are so bold that they don't even want to die!"

Eunuch Zhang immediately understood that the emperor was going to catch a turtle in a urn.

Although it is somewhat risky for the emperor to do so, it is also reasonable.

If it was a family banquet tonight, it would be over if they broke up, but there are still people from Mogu here tonight.There are only rumors of an assassin, so he hastily dodges and hides, which is a bit of a loss of courage.

He looked at the emperor again, and after receiving the emperor's signal, the queen nodded slightly, and said to Mu Baozheng who was kneeling on the ground: "Jing nobleman is still pregnant, get up first. Whether this matter is true or not, you should treat the emperor's grievances." Loyalty, this palace already understands, so you don't need to panic anymore."

The corner of Mu Baozheng's lips was lightly pursed, and a barely visible sneer flashed across his face, but the expression on his face became more submissive, "The concubine thanked the empress, and thanked the emperor!"

The queen signaled again, and immediately a nanny stepped forward, supported Mu Baozheng, and sent her back to her original position.

After getting Eunuch Zhang's nod, the musician played again, and the dancing girl's fluttering skirt spun again.

Among the intertwining of cups and cups, talking and laughing, whoever saw it was also a good pair of singing and dancing.But in fact, almost everyone was sweating coldly.

Inside and outside the hall, without anyone noticing, a lot of guards were quietly added, all of them were masters in the palace, and they just waited for the assassins to come and take them down in one fell swoop.

"Based on her ability, could she attract any assassins at that time?" Su Qingrou took a sip of the fruit wine, and tonight was unpredictable. No one dared to let go of the drink, lest something happen suddenly.

"Everyone knows that it's already a mess, so it's definitely not a mystery." Mu Changge said slowly, raised his gaze slightly, and said solemnly to Su Qingrou, "If something really changes tonight, the princess must remember to protect herself. "

Although Su Qingrou's identity can bring countless conveniences to Mu Changge, if she encounters any difficulties, she will never involve them for no reason.

"You're really stubborn, and you're out of touch with me." Su Qingrou shook her head, and was about to say a few more words to her, when her eyes suddenly lit up, "Look outside the door!"

Mu Changge followed her gaze, and at this moment, there were bursts of astonishment in the hall.

From far to near outside the door, there was a sound of dull footsteps, which sounded like people walking, but the sound of people walking could not be so shaking.

Looking over from a distance, Mu Changge saw the black bear with a head like a hill at a glance.

Mu Changge had seen bears several times before in the hunting grounds, but he had never seen such a strong one.

Its size has doubled in size, with two rows of staggered fangs abruptly exposed outside its thick lips, a pair of eyes staring like copper bells, breathing heavily, just listening to it can't help but make people shudder.

"That's the mountain bear that is hard to pierce with a knife or a gun." Su Qingrou looked very excited. She had lived in the palace for many years, but now seeing this extraordinary giant, her excitement was far greater than her fear.

Under the light, the mountain bear's thick fur exudes a shiny luster, and the closer it gets, the more shocking it looks.

Around the mountain bear's neck was a gold collar, and at one end of the chain was a tall man.

Seeing that the man was about to lead the mountain bear into the hall, Eunuch Zhang turned pale, "It's unreasonable, how can such a huge beast be brought to the place where the emperor holds a banquet?"

Qilian Jinzhen stood up at this moment, and said with a hearty smile: "Eunuch Zhang, don't be afraid, this mountain bear is a gift from our Mo Gujin to the emperor."

Saying that, Qilian Jinzhen had already walked towards the mountain bear, took the other end of the chain from his hand, and patted the mountain bear with the other hand very naturally.

"This bear is different from ordinary mountain bears. It has been raised in our Mogu palace since childhood. It eats all kinds of fruits. It has never been contaminated by meat, and its temperament is very docile."

Leading the mountain bear into the palace, Qilian Jinzhen patted it again, "Don't be afraid, ladies and gentlemen, earlier in our Mogu Palace, what the princesses liked most was playing with this mountain bear. There has never been an accident in the past, I am afraid it is much more docile than a rabbit."

Saying that, Qilian Jinzhen put his hand to Shanxiong's mouth, "If anyone wants to get close to him, just come."

The mountain bear turned its head sideways, stuck out its scarlet tongue, and licked the palm of his hand, with a really naive appearance.

It was far away before, and it was a little unclear, but now that it's getting closer, Mu Changge just realized that this mountain bear is indeed very different from the beasts she has seen.

In the eyes of this mountain bear, there is no trace of ferocity. Although its appearance is a little scary, its expression always reveals a simple and honest look.

At the banquet, the most important thing is all kinds of meat, but it is not particularly interested in those meats, with a pair of copper bell-like eyes, staring at the fruit plate on the table, salivating.

Seeing it like this, the beating hearts of those concubines who were frightened at the beginning gradually calmed down.

Su Qingrou was even more curious, so she took a few fruits and went forward. At first, she didn't dare to get too close, and only took a few steps to slowly throw the fruits over under Qi Lian Jinzhen's signal.

The mountain bear's two huge bear paws held the fruit in their palms, licked it with their tongues, threw it into their mouths, and began to chew with relish. Their eyes still stared at Su Qingrou helplessly, seeing that she didn't want to eat it. Continuing to throw it to himself, he actually raised his palms and bowed to her.

This bow caused everyone to laugh, and the previous tension naturally faded a lot.

Qilian Jinzhen waited for the mountain bear to finish eating, then led it, then handed it back to the slender man, turned around, and bowed to the emperor.

"In our Mogu, there are beast tamers who specialize in taming mountain bears. If His Majesty doesn't dislike them, he will make a fool of himself."

Since just now, the emperor has also been watching with great interest. Before he saw the man's performance, he had already shouted a reward.

After receiving the reward respectfully, the man clasped his fists all around, and pulled out a short whip from his cuff, and hung a golden bell on the tip of the whip. After dancing, he couldn't hear the crackling sound, only the jingle of the bells.

"What, I told you earlier that you must not miss it. Isn't it really interesting?" Su Qingrou sang to Mu Chang with great interest while watching the mountain bear dance in a clumsy posture.

Mu Changge was also very interesting to watch. Unexpectedly, the mountain bear looked clumsy, but its movements were very sensitive.

Hearing another bell, the animal trainer pulled out a straw hat like a magic trick, and the mountain bear turned the straw hat upside down, held it in his hand, and swayed to Concubine Shu's side.

Concubine Shu Gui was startled at first, and then reacted. She was surprised but also found it interesting, picked up a fruit and threw it in.

After taking the fruit, the mountain bear wandered to Concubine Li Shu's place again. Concubine Li Shu smiled and threw a fruit in too.

However, just as Shanxiong Zuoyi was about to leave, Concubine Li Shu's complexion changed slightly, "Wait a minute!"
