Chapter 27: Sword, Light, Sword and Shadow

In the past few days, the male protagonist seemed to have lost interest in her, and did not appear around her again.

Until today's spring banquet, I specially sent the prince and father beside me to send dresses and jewelry.

"Is there anyone special here today? Does it need to be so grand?"

Zheng Xiyao looked at Lin Lin Lin's exquisite and gorgeous palace clothes, so solemn, she asked curiously.

"Your Majesty forgot, today is the first time you have appeared on a formal occasion. Your Majesty naturally hopes that Your Majesty will be the most eye-catching existence." The prince smiled flatteringly and explained the actions of the hero.

Zheng Xiyao was noncommittal, and ordered people to put on these clothes and jewelry, and then followed the prince to the spring banquet.

In April, the weather is gradually getting hotter but the nights are still a bit cool.The banquet was held in the Yonghe Hall.The Hall of Yonghe was built during the reign of the first emperor. It was originally a palace where the first emperor entertained meritorious ministers.The interior decoration of the temple is solemn and solemn.Because it is not far from the lake, you can still hear the birdsong and frogs clearly, so it will be very interesting.

"The emperor is here!" Following the servant's announcement, everyone saluted the hero and her respectfully.

She stood side by side with the male protagonist, maintaining a just right smile.

Envy flashed across the eyes of the crowd when they saw her:
I saw Zheng Xiyao's eyes were clear and bright, and the corners of her brows and eyes were filled with a honey-like smile, rippling on her delicate and flawless face, charming and seductive.The rose red flowery palace dress is covered with a layer of gold gauze, and the wide hem is rusted with gold threads. The movement is truly magnificent.

If it wasn't for their notoriety, Zheng Xiyao and the emperor would indeed be a match made in heaven.

The emperor held Zheng Xiyao in his arms and said, "Let's all sit down."

Following the command of the male lead, everyone sat down.

The grand banquet finally kicked off.

Zheng Xiyao slowly took a sip of the "green plum wine" specially prepared for her by the hero, and thought sadly: I don't know what will happen in a while?If it wasn't for living, she wouldn't have come at all.

Come, may die.If you don't come, life is better than death.

Zheng Xiyao looked at the full hall of guests below, the east and west were placed near the banquet tables for relatives, wives and concubines.

Below the left hand of her and the hero are the seats for relatives and wives.They are King Changshan, Duke Qing, Taishi Xiao and the head of the Xie family.

[Host, what are you looking at? ] The system saw that Zheng Xiyao had been staring down, and asked curiously.

【Duke Qing is much older. 】Zheng Xiyao looked at the old Duke, a hint of distress flashed in his eyes.

The people around were pushing cups and changing glasses, laughing and talking, it was so lively, only Qing Guogong's table was not cared about.

The old man kept drinking with his head down.

And all because of him.

If it wasn't for him, Duke Qing would not have attended this banquet.After all, she is now the favorite concubine, the future queen.But there is no natal family to support the scene, and I am afraid of being laughed at, so the old man will appear on the stage.

Zheng Xiyao guessed.

Maybe her eyes were too focused, and she didn't notice that the male lead's eyes had been wandering between her and Duke Qing.

The corner of Liu Siyan's mouth curled into a cool arc: "Come on, Lord Qing, I'd like to respect you. I respect you for giving birth to a good daughter, who is virtuous and virtuous, and won my heart."

Before Duke Qing toasted, Grand Master Xiao who was sitting next to him had a cold face: "It's not that she gave birth to a good daughter, who will charm the king and bring disaster to the country and the people."

The male protagonist's face was slightly gloomy, and he put down his wine glass heavily: "Grand Master Xiao, be careful with your words!"

Zheng Xiyao caught a glimpse of Duke Qing's face pale with anger, his body staggering, as if he was about to fall down at any time.She was about to stand up nervously, but the male lead reached out and grabbed her.

At this moment, Zheng Xiyao's heart ached.

Duke Qing fought on the battlefield all his life, and he never bowed his back in the face of thousands of enemy troops.Now, because of her unfilial daughter, she is being blamed for poking her spine.

A cold light flashed in Zheng Xiyao's eyes, and she shook off the male lead's hand.

"Grand Master Xiao, you have heard that to be honest with others is to be honest with yourself first, and to be honest with yourself is to be honest with you first."

"What does Concubine Chen mean by this?"

"Of course Grand Master Xiao will take care of his own daughter first. No matter how unbearable my palace is now, I will follow the etiquette and will not be arrogant and domineering just because I am a child of the Xiao family."

Zheng Xiyao stared intently at Grand Master Xiao.

"You! Dare?"

"Heh, Grand Master Xiao, I will return Xiao Jieyu's words to you intact: Doesn't Grand Master Xiao understand the rituals of monarchs and ministers?"

Zheng Xiyao said to the angry Grand Master Xiao indifferently.

"Jun, how can you talk about being a king like a sinful girl? It's ridiculous!" Grand Master Xiao was so angry that he couldn't choose what to say.

"Grand Master Xiao!" At this moment, the male protagonist stopped Grand Master Xiao.

Facing the emperor's scolding, Grand Master Xiao could only keep silent.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. My father just drank too much and was in a daze and talked nonsense. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Xiao Jieyu who was on the opposite side suddenly stood up to make a rescue; "Actually, today, my father specially made a special effort to celebrate my mother's upcoming motherhood. Send someone to bring a cart of wine from southern Xinjiang. Your Majesty, try it?" As he spoke, he ordered someone to deliver the wine in a glass.

Zheng Xiyao was looking at Xiao Jieyu, who was exquisitely dressed and brightly dressed.

The woman is wearing a light green dress, which is as long as the floor, and her head is full of pearls and emeralds, which is gorgeous and dazzling.

Zheng Xiyao took the wine glass, turned it around a few times, but didn't drink it right away.Instead, he looked at the male lead next to him questioningly.

Liu Siyan gently squeezed her hand like this, and the pupils looking at her were black and white, cold and clear, as if full of affection.

"Drink." The soft and deep coaxing made people unable to refuse
Zheng Xiyao drank the wine without hesitation after hearing the words. After drinking, her lips seemed to be stained with rouge, which was dazzling and charming.

"Xiao Jieyu's wine is excellent." Zheng Xiyao praised.

"It's as long as your mother likes it." Xiao Jieyu lowered her hands and responded in a low voice.

Zheng Xiyao seemed to be extremely addicted to it, drinking one cup after another, soon her eyes were blurred, her cheeks were flushed, her left hand propped her chin, and she watched the singing and dancing below with slightly narrowed eyes.

"It seems that Yao'er likes this song and dance?" The male lead approached her and asked, Zheng Xiyao smiled foolishly: "I like it."

"I heard that before entering the palace, Xiao Jieyu became famous in the capital with a dance of neon clothes and feather clothes. Ruoxi is not as good as dancing to the last song. If the concubine Chen is happy, I will make you a concubine, how about it?"

Zheng Xiyao's cheeks were slightly red, her eyes blurred and she said, "Okay, I want to see it."

Xiao Jieyu stood up with an ugly face, looked at the tall man with a twinkle in her eyes, and then bowed her head in agreement.

"Since Your Majesty said so, the concubine is making a fool of herself."

Xiao Jieyu walked into the hall, wearing a red dress to set off her graceful figure, fluttering like a butterfly, her movements are graceful and wonderful, her neck like a swan's neck is twisted into a perfect arc, her slender white fingers outline Gorgeous curves.

Xiao Jieyu's skirt fluttered, and her body flew up with the music, like a butterfly, elegant and flexible.

Her every step is full of charm and beauty.

Almost everyone was attracted by this gorgeous picture and stared at her intently.

Except for men sitting in high places.

On the stage, Zheng Xiyao clapped her hands and praised: "It's like a fairy, it's really beautiful."

At this time, the dancing circle in the center of the hall turned out to be faster, her face was reddish, fine beads of sweat ooze from her forehead, and her eyes looking at the male lead were even more desperate and affectionate.

Suddenly, Xiao Jieyu shook her sleeves and tapped the wine glass on the wine table next to the meal.

A group of black shadows rushed into the hall, holding most of the people in the hall hostage in an instant.

"Your Majesty, does the concubine's dance look good?"

Standing in the middle of the hall, Xiao Jieyu asked Zheng Xiyao with a bewitching and crazy laugh.

Zheng Xiyao tilted her head, her eyes were clear, she looked innocent, and said with an undiminished smile:
"nice."

"Hehe, what does Your Majesty think?" Xiao Ruoxi sneered and looked at the hero.

The male lead focused on Zheng Xiyao without even looking at Xiao Ruoxi, and said in a calm tone: "Yaoer thinks it's good, so I think it's good."

"Your Majesty, you are really..." Xiao Jieyu choked up with grief in her eyes, "Ruthless."

She lost her voice.Grand Master Xiao jumped up against the case: "Why should my daughter, Xiao Yuansheng, have to compromise for a man. After killing this stupid king and witch for her father, and ascending to this supreme position, there will be successors for you to choose from."

Grand Master Xiao angrily pointed at the hero and her; "Give it to me, the foolish king and the demon woman will be punished if they get it."

Dozens of black shadows suddenly appeared around.

In an instant.

Between swords and swords, blood flowed like rivers.
