Chapter 172
Chu Zongge smiled and gazed gently into her eyes, "This is just a legend I heard from the jade merchant. A lover who can blend blood in the jade pendant may not be married in the real world. I don't want to see you bleed more than making such an oath. My fresh blood is already in this Phoenix Pendant. You often take it with you. It's a thought."
Xue ronghua lowered his eyes. "When I was admiring Langhua in my previous life, Meng Qianzhong and I were a pair of excellent people. We may have made many vows. But when the wheel of time didn't run over a few marks, he betrayed me and all his promises. Today, I don't know where we will go in the future."
"Meng Qianzhong and I are absolutely different. He just wants to borrow your mother's family to complete the imperial career, and his vows are just to serve his wolf ambition." Chu Zongge took her chin and printed a kiss on her lips. "I really love you, and I hope in a hundred years. You are the one who accompanied me walking in the imperial garden."
Xue ronghua pinched the bloody Phoenix Pendant in his hand, but he was still worried. "I don't believe you, I just don't believe in time."
Chu Zongge held her waist and asked her to stick closer to herself. "Time is not for believing. Time is for proving." his eyes seemed to burn a torch and looked at her brightly, "no matter how many years you stay in the state of Qi, I will wait for you to come back."
When Xue ronghua came back, her nose was sour. These two simple words were like a dark cloud floating from a distance, and it rained heavily in her heart. Qi was the place where she died in her previous life, Qin was the place where she grew up in this life, and Chu Zongge was her only home in the world. The road before revenge was boundless. I don't know when she can realize the word return.
"Well," Xue ronghua smiled at him with a smile, "I must cut through thorns and thorns just to return."
The Yongning hall was brightly lit, so that the hall was like day. Most of the palace people gathered on both sides of the banquet. They all looked solemn, held their breath, and waited respectfully for the king to give orders. Meng Qianchong sat on the seat with great momentum. He glanced at the whole audience very comfortably but with a deterrent force, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, "The envoys of the state of Qin will leave and return tomorrow. I hereby host a banquet in Yongning hall to see you off."
Chu Zongge and a group of people raised their glasses and replied respectfully, "thank you, your majesty."
Meng Qian pointed his head and said, "please sit down. Do you know if the osmanthus wine in the glass is suitable for your taste?" he tilted the end king of the present seat.
Chu Zongge slowly raised his wine glass and said with a smile, "good wine should be made by the golden osmanthus at the tip of the cinnamon branch."
Meng Qianzhong snorted carelessly, "this is what concubine Wan made for you. Duanwang has good taste. I think there are many good wines in the state of Qin."
Chu Zongge nodded slightly and said, "thank you, Emperor."
"I invited Duan Wang to dinner today, not to thank you," Meng Qianzhong said, picking up his chopsticks and pointing to a circle of delicious dishes with all kinds of colors and flavors at the banquet. "You represent the state of Qin, so you don't have to be polite."
Luo Ninghai smiled and said, "Duan Wang, this is the sweet scented osmanthus wine personally brewed by our palace, also known as drinking alone under the moon. Seeing Duan Wang drink comfortably, he felt that his autumn efforts were not in vain."
Chu Zong's singer Zhong Yizhi looked along the voice and saw that Princess Wan was wearing a light cyan silver thread group furuyi brocade robe. Her very light dress was not too dazzling, but people had to pay attention to her existence. A head of green silk was properly placed behind her head, with a green seal hanging a bead hairpin, and the hanging beads swayed and glowed with her speech and behavior.
Today, if the imperial concubine can't see the shadow, I'm afraid that concubine Wan is alone. Chu Zongge chuckled and asked, "why is concubine Wan's wine called drinking alone under the moon?"
Luo Ninghai gently glanced at Meng Qianzhong and softly explained: "A few years ago, there was a once-in-a-century drought in the south. The emperor was busy with government affairs. It was said that water transportation was linked with the moon, so our palace worshipped the moon as God, offered sacrifices with osmanthus wine, prayed for the mercy of the moon god, sowed rain and dew to help me get through the disaster. It was really a wish come true. I thought of drinking and worshiping God under the moon in the future As soon as the voice fell, she turned her head to Meng Qianchong's appreciative eyes and smiled at him.
The audience were all impressed by the character of Princess Wan's national fortune. Chu Zongge quietly drank a sip of wine. Princess Wan's name became quite warm after a few words. As Xue ronghua said, she was not a simple figure.
"Empress Wan is really concerned about the national fortune, and the palace sighs itself like Buddha." a proud and wanton voice interrupted everyone's praise for Princess Wan, and the whole audience immediately became quiet, and the atmosphere seemed to drop to the freezing point. Chu Zongge was wondering who could have the ability and courage to break into the Yongning hall to disturb the emperor's interest, and heard Xie Yingmei whisper, "Why did the imperial concubine Ru come?"
Su Rushuang is definitely well prepared. She is wearing a robe with carmine cut silk embroidered Begonia. The Golden Phoenix on the bun edge is as tired as jade. The Phoenix hairpin is dazzling. The noble feeling of the grand concubine of Qi is suddenly felt, which makes people dare not underestimate it. A pair of beautiful eyes look forward to it, and her lips light and smell laughter. Wearing a light Princess Wan, she immediately pales in front of her dazzling appearance.
Chu Zongge smiled silently in his heart. When did the fire in the back palace burn to the previous dynasty.
"If the imperial concubine invited or not?" Chu Zongge asked in a low voice.
Xie Yingmei said with a wry smile: "Princess Wan won't invite her. The emperor doesn't want to see her. She's coming by herself."
Meng Qianchong's eyes were cold and frightening. He slowly raised the corners of his mouth and said, "if the imperial concubine is ill and doesn't have a good rest in Huayang palace, how can he come to Yongning palace?"
Su Rushan sat down directly in front of concubine Wan. She didn't even look at concubine Wan's pale face. She smiled at the emperor YingYing and said, "my concubine is more comfortable. I came uninvited today to surprise the emperor."
Meng Qianchong's eyelids jumped a few times and said indifferently, "this is really a surprise."
Luo Ninghai restrained the surging clouds in her heart, squeezed out a trace of smile and said, "just now, my concubine was thinking about the imperial concubine. Now the imperial concubine will arrive."
"Concubine Wan is really a powerful person," Su Rushuang nibbled her lips. "It rains when she thinks about the moon god's rain. When she thinks about coming to the palace, she comes. It's more powerful than the star watchers in Tongtian prison. It seems that concubine Wan has the ability of channeling."
Luo Ning's sea color was stiff and said in a slow voice, "how's the illness of the imperial concubine? I'm worried."
Su Rushuang's eyes were full of waves. "It's no wonder that Princess Wan was worried."
Listening to these two people talking about their Kung Fu at the banquet, Chu Zongge couldn't help looking at Xie Yingmei with a worried look. It seems that Princess Chen is not the opponent of Gong Dou expert at all.
"Imperial concubine Chen," Su Rushan didn't give Luo Ninghai a chance to speak, and immediately transferred to Xie Yingmei, "the emperor Duan will return to the state of Qin in the Ming Dynasty. You should enjoy your last dinner."
Xie Yingmei didn't dare to provoke her, so she quickly lowered her head and answered.
Chu Zongge looked at the growing embarrassment on everyone's face, and then looked at the subtle smile on Meng Qianchong's lips. He thought that Su Rushuang's prepared play would soon come to an end. I think she dressed up carefully for a long time and was a flash in the pan in Yongning hall, which had already had an impact on several people.
"You don't have to worry about imperial concubine Chen and Duanwang. Their brothers and sisters eat by themselves," Meng Qianchong glanced at Su Rushuang with angry eyes. "I'm a little drunk when I drink. Chen Wanqian, help me out to blow a cold wind and wake up."
Luo Ninghai immediately stood up and held the emperor with concern. "My concubine, go out with you."
Meng Qianchong waved and looked at Rugui imperial concubine, "go out with me. Concubine Wan is here to accompany the guests."
Su Rushuang's smiling face stiffened slightly and drank a glass of wine as if he hadn't heard Meng Qianzhong's implied warning.
Chen Wanqian bent over to her, "imperial concubine, you go to help the emperor wake up the bar. This slave can't do it."
Su Rushan was stiff, unwilling to leave the seat he had just sat down, and followed Meng Qianchong's steps to leave the hall.
Luo Ninghai stared at Rugui Fei's departure with a cold face, picked up her smile again, and said softly, "let's drink a bar. We must have fun tonight."
Xue ronghua touched the discolored Phoenix Pendant and leaned lazily against the window. Today, although it was a banquet for the envoys of the state of Qin to return home, the atmosphere was extremely quiet. Zhaoyun hall and Yongning hall were very close, but he couldn't hear any sound. He only saw a huge light in the distance.
Rosie and xuanxiao accompany Xie Yingmei to the banquet. She is the only one in Zhaoyun Hall tonight. Chu Zongge doesn't know whether he likes the dishes given by Meng Qianchong, or whether Meng Qianchong will take the last opportunity to make trouble for him again. He thinks about it and thinks that he'd better go. He's afraid that he will expose his feelings when he meets Meng Qianchong.
However, Luo Ninghai should not let Su Rushuang attend the banquet. Xue ronghua bowed his head and thought for a moment. He suddenly wanted to go to the Huayang palace where the imperial concubine was located. Su Rushuang had no children in the palace for so many years, and imperial concubine Wan was competing for favor with her. She had been locked up several times and wanted to have a very hard time. Thinking of this, Xue ronghua's lips tilted slightly, and he wanted to go to Huayang palace to explore.
Meng Qianchong walked quickly ahead with a gloomy face. Su Rushuang stumbled behind, but he couldn't keep up with him.
Chen Wanqian followed Meng Qianzhong and asked, "emperor, the envoys of the state of Qin are still in the Yongning hall. It's too long for the emperor to sober up."
"There's Princess Wan there. Just go back and say I'm uncomfortable," Meng Qianzhong said coldly. He looked back and gouged out Su Rushuang. "In which direction is your palace?"
Su Rushuang's heart beat very fast and said slowly, "the emperor has arrived. The front is the main gate."
Meng Qianzhong raised his hand, "ask your palace people to open the door. Chen Wanqian, you go back to the Yongning hall and give some more dishes."
Chen Wanqian glanced at Su Rushuang and respectfully stepped down.
Su Rushuang's heart clicked. Meng Qianchong ran to his bedroom to do something, but I think he was angry in her palace every time. This time she came uninvited to disturb his farewell banquet. He must not let himself go. Seeing Meng Qianchong's cloudy face ahead, Su Rushuang felt a little happy. At least she was really angry. It's better than never paying attention to herself.
