Fengming Tianxia's Concubine Empress

Chapter 164 The Name of the Princess

And Shang Junyuan didn't expect that the woman standing not far away would be her, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face, but the surprise was fleeting, and then he changed into his cold face that hadn't changed for thousands of years.

It was not the first time for Shang Junyuan to come to the imperial palace of Dijiao Kingdom. Although the envoys from various countries came to congratulate Prince Yong on his concubine selection, how could outsiders like them participate in the concubine selection ceremony?They were just attending the banquet after the concubine was selected, and during the concubine selection time, they were arranged in Qingluan Palace.For some reason today, Shang Junyuan felt a little irritable, so he went to wander in the green bamboo forest in the backyard, and for some reason, he came to this pavilion.

In fact, just now, when Su Mei and the others came to the pavilion, he already knew that the reason why he didn't turn around was that he hoped that they would leave in a sensible way so that he could leave this clean place to him.Unexpectedly, he heard Zi Yan's voice, which he remembered.

Su Mei recovered quickly, afraid that he would see the expression on her face. Although she knew that it was impossible for anyone to know her true identity today, she still felt a little guilty.

Su Mei nodded to Shang Junyuan, then turned around, ready to leave.

"Girl, please stay!" Shang Junyuan said and walked towards her.

"Dare to ask the girl's name?"

However, before Su Mei could answer, Zi Yan had already put on a straight face, and angrily scolded: "Bold, you can only know the name of the princess! You don't kneel down when you see the princess!"

"Zi Yan!" Su Mei said coldly.Although Ziyan didn't know his identity, Su Mei did.

Seeing Su Mei's downcast face, Ziyan felt very aggrieved, and couldn't help but raise her head to stare at Shang Junyuan, but she didn't know that Shang Junyuan's face was even colder and more terrifying than Su Mei's, so she immediately lowered her head.

"My lord, I'm sorry, Ziyan is spoiled by me, I hope you can't blame me." Su Mei said politely to Shang Junyuan.

"It doesn't matter." Shang Junyuan said lightly, and his face eased a lot, only to hear him go on to say: "My lord, Shang Junyuan, why do you want to ask the princess what to call her?" Shang Junyuan looked at Su Mei with fixed eyes. , the eyes reveal the look of a gentle lady and a gentleman, that look really has a special flavor, full of evil charm.

Su Mei was taken aback for a moment, then smiled lightly, with a clear expression, and said: "King Qi is polite, Su Mei has met King Qi." Speaking of which, Su Mei blessed Shang Junyuan, which was regarded as a gift .

However, Shang Junyuan's face at this time is very ugly. He has imagined countless times that he appeared as the king of Shanghuang, and the scene of the two meeting each other, but he never imagined that she would treat him so politely estranged.

King Qi?Could it be that the fourth prince of Shanghuang Kingdom, Qi Wang Shang Junyuan, who was ruthless and cold-faced Yan Luo in the legend, killed people without blinking an eye?Zi Yan stared at Shang Junyuan with wide eyes, her eyes full of horror, you know, just now, she was very disrespectful to him.Thinking of this, Zi Yan became more and more frightened.

Su Mei, who was standing beside Zi Yan, felt Zi Yan's body trembling slightly, and couldn't help turning her head to give her a comforting look, signaling that she didn't have to be afraid.

I don't know if it was because of Su Mei's comforting eyes or what, in short, Zi Yan's mood calmed down a lot, and the fear in her heart also reduced a lot.

"You know me?" Shang Junyuan asked in feigned surprise.

"Yes, I heard Brother Huang mention you." Su Mei said very calmly.

"Emperor Brother? The Seventh Prince is Prince Yong?"

"Yeah." Su Mei nodded lightly. At this moment, she no longer felt nervous. Gradually, her heart became calmer and calmer.

"Are you the auspicious princess newly appointed by the emperor of Dijiao Kingdom?" Shang Junyuan continued to ask.

"That's right!" Before Su Mei could answer, a generous male voice came from a distance.

Hearing this, Su Mei turned around and saw Jiao Jingyao walking towards them with a smile, her steps were brisk, and she looked so unrestrained, far from the stable look she had seen in the palace before.

"Brother." When he approached, Su Mei said with a smile.

When Shang Junyuan saw the smile on Su Mei's face, he couldn't help but feel a little displeased, and his face couldn't help but darken a lot.

"En." Jiao Jingyao nodded, and then said to Shang Junyuan, "It turns out that King Qi is also here."

"I was idle in the courtyard, so I came out for a walk. I never thought that I would meet Princess Xiangrui here." Shang Junyuan said as he glanced at Su Mei who was standing aside, with a rare expression on his face. A gentle air.

But at this moment, a man dressed like a guard ran over from the west, he looked hurried, as if something was up, he ran over, and when he got closer, he saw Shang Junyuan standing next to him. The few people who were standing were stunned for a moment, obviously they didn't expect there would be so many people in the pavilion, they saw him respectfully salute and said: "This subordinate has met King Qi!"

He stood up, and when he saw Su Mei's face, he paused for a moment, with a trace of surprise on his face, but before he could speak, Shang Junyuan's cold voice sounded, "I haven't seen Princess Xiangrui yet. !"

"Yes." The man replied, then saluted and said, "Princess Xiangrui."

Su Mei smiled lightly and said, "There's no need to be too polite."

She recognized this guard, if she remembered correctly, he was An Feng, one of Shang Junyuan's personal guards.

Hearing this, he looked at Su Mei in surprise again, his eyes full of doubts. He could hear that her voice was somewhat similar to that of Princess Zhaohua who fell off the cliff before, and he also found that her indifferent eyes were also very similar. He looked so much like her, he realized his gaffe, and quickly lowered his head.

Naturally, Shang Junyuan also saw the look on his face, and felt a little displeased, so he couldn't help asking in a cold voice, "What are you doing here?"

The man came to his senses, and immediately moved to Shang Junyuan's ear, whispering in a low voice.

When Shang Junyuan heard this, his original frown became tighter.

"Well, I see, you go back first." Shang Junyuan said with a stern expression.

"Yes." Said the man turned and walked away.

Shang Junyuan said to Jiao Jingyao with a little apology: "I still have some things to do, so I will take my leave first."

"Okay, please go ahead, King Qi, don't miss the banquet." Jiao Jingyao said with a smile.

Shang Junyuan nodded, glanced at Su Mei, then turned and strode away.

Jiao Jingyao looked at Shang Junyuan's leaving figure thoughtfully, just now, the guard's expression when he saw Su Mei made him feel a little uneasy, even though he knew they didn't know anything, but he felt a little worried worried.

"Brother?" Seeing him staring in a daze, Su Mei couldn't help asking in a low voice.

"It's nothing, let's go back too, it's getting late, the banquet will start soon."

"En." Su Mei nodded, and when she saw Jiao Jingyao's face radiant and joyful, she thought that the chosen princess was in his favor, so she smiled and asked, "Brother, little sister sees you?" With a happy face, has the queen's person been selected?"

Hearing this, Jiao Jingyao stopped, turned to look at Su Mei, and said, "Not yet, the concubine selection has been postponed for the time being."

"Postponed?" Su Mei asked in surprise.

"Well, today's women who are waiting for election from all over the world enter the palace and live in the Xiunv Hall. They need to undergo half a month of court training. After the training is over, they will choose Princess Yongqin."

Su Mei thought for a while and said, "Then isn't this the same as the emperor's selection of concubines?"

Jiao Jingyao smiled indifferently, and said: "Yes, this time the concubine selection is not only the selection of Yongqin Wangfei, but also a few side concubines for the eldest brother of the prince, so the process is inevitably complicated."

"oh, I see."

Seeing Su Mei's suddenly enlightened expression, Jiao Jingyao couldn't help chuckling, and said, "Okay, I don't want to worry about this anymore, I'd better go back and tidy up and prepare for the evening banquet." step forward.

Su Mei looked at Jiao Jingyao's brisk steps and the happy face, sighed in her heart, and couldn't help walking forward quickly.

Qingluan Palace.

Shang Junyuan sat on the main seat with a cold face, his eyes fixed on the document that the dark blood had just sent in his hand, after he read it, the expression on his face became even colder, and his whole body exuded a humble aura.

"Master." An Feng asked, taking a step forward.

It's just that Shang Junyuan acted as if he had never heard of it, and his eyes were still fixed on the document.

Seeing his expression, An Feng knew that although he didn't know what was written on it, he knew that it was about Princess Xiangrui of Dijiao Country.

At first he didn't understand why the master wanted dark blood to investigate the affairs of Princess Xiangrui, but after seeing her in the green bamboo forest recently, he understood his master's thoughts. Could it be that the master suspected that Princess Xiangrui was Luoya's court Princess Hua?
Thinking of this, he suddenly turned his head to look at Dark Blood who was standing aside, but at this time Dark Blood also looked at him, but there was no change on his face.

Shang Junyuan got up and said sharply to An Xue: "Dark Blood, pay close attention to the movements of the envoys of various countries, and report any changes immediately." Shang Junyuan stood up and said sharply.

"Yes, master." Dark Blood said and retreated respectfully.

Am I guessing wrong?Isn't this about Princess Xiangrui?An Feng asked secretly in his heart.

Shang Junyuan pondered for a moment, then said, "Darkness."

"Subordinates are here."

"Secretly observe and protect Princess Xiangrui."

"Yes." Anming also retreated after saying that.

In the whole room, only Shang Junyuan and Anfeng were left.

"Anfeng, you step back first, I want to be alone for a while."

"Yes, my subordinates retire."

Finally, he was the only one left in the room. He picked up the documents on the table again, fixed his eyes on it, and frowned.

Auspicious?Zarva?Samui?No matter who you are, you are destined to be my Shang Junyuan's woman!
Qing Yudian.

As soon as Su Mei stepped into the room with her right foot, she sneezed involuntarily.

"Ah Choo!" Su Mei hurriedly picked up the handkerchief in her sleeve and covered her mouth and nose.

"Ill?" Jiao Jingyao immediately asked with concern.

"It's okay." Su Mei said with a smile.

But at this time, Zi Yan laughed softly, and said: "Someone must miss Miss. People say that one sneeze is someone thinking, two sneezes are scolded, and three sneezes is a cold." , and Miss just sneezed!" Zi Yan said and looked at Su Mei with a playful smile.

"Zi Yan." Su Mei smiled helplessly, and then said: "Zi Yan, go and bring the prince a cup of hot tea."

"Yes, servant girl is going now." Zi Yan walked out with a smile.

It's just that Zi Yan's original joke has a different taste in Jiao Jingyao's ears.He remembered the way Shang Junyuan looked at Su Mei when he was in the green bamboo forest. That expression was by no means a general admiration, but rather.

"Brother, sit down." Su Mei's words just interrupted his train of thought.

"Yeah." Jiao Jingyao nodded with a smile, walked to the main seat and sat down.

Su Mei also sat down beside her and said, "Brother."

"What's the matter?" Jiao Jingyao looked at her hesitant expression, and asked with a smile: "Little sister, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, you don't have to be polite to elder brother."

"Ah."

But at this moment, Zi Yan walked in with two cups of hot tea.
