Happy pastoral concubine

Chapter 576 Interesting and Interesting
Chaoyang Hall.

Neither the emperor nor the queen came yet, and everyone else sat upright in their respective positions.

There was no sound, and the atmosphere was a little strangely silent.

"The Holy Majesty has arrived—the Queen has arrived—"

Following the shout of the Holy Majesty's confidant eunuch Wang, all the people present immediately left the table and knelt neatly to one side, shouting respectfully, "Long live the Holy Majesty, long live the Empress, and the Empress! "

After about a quarter of an hour, a thick and powerful voice suddenly sounded.

"Let's all be flat!" Murong Ze smiled slightly, not getting angry, "Today is a family banquet, everyone don't need to be too formal!"

"Yes--"

Accompanied by a burst of melodious bells, dancers in exotic costumes filed in.

The slender waist kept dancing, and the sound of the music gradually became boiling.

"it is good--"

After drinking for three rounds, the emperor's gaze began to pass over every woman's face below.

The women who sat under him according to their ranks were all his concubines, some were women he had favored, and some he had never even seen before.

When his gaze inadvertently fell on the face of An Xiuhui who was sitting not far away and was savoring the delicious food with her head bowed, he was slightly taken aback.

Her profile is so familiar?
"Where is An Cairen?" The queen had seen An Xiuhui's portrait earlier, so she quickly found An Xiuhui in the crowd. When she accidentally caught the sight of the Holy Majesty, she immediately understood and smiled softly, " An Cairen?"

An Xiuhui, who was suddenly named, didn't panic at all. After all, from the time she received the bright red palace attire, she knew that someone wanted to attack her.

But facing the queen's sudden roll call, she still pretended to be shocked.

"—Concubine has met the empress!" She has now been named a talented person by the sage, so she doesn't have to call herself a slave.

Hearing this tactful oriole-like voice, Murong Ze's eyes quickly flashed a touch of surprise.

"Just hearing this voice, you know that you are a lovely person. Why don't you raise your head quickly so that the Holy Majesty and this palace can see your face?" The queen smiled generously, her dignified voice was full of tenderness.

"Yes," An Xiuhui immediately calmed down, and then raised her eyes gently. When she saw Murong Ze's face clearly, she tightly clenched her palms with both hands, letting her nails dig into her palms. Can't feel the slightest pain.

Now the man who looked at her with the eyes of a prey is her enemy!It was this suspicious, narrow-minded and selfish man who killed more than 100 members of the Xiao family!

Even though the hatred in her heart was overwhelming, An Xiuhui's face remained unchanged.

"What's wrong with An Cairen? Why are you staring at the Holy One all the time?"

"Don't An Cairen know that looking at the Holy One all the time is a crime of disrespect?"

"That's right, this Ancai man wouldn't want to seduce the Holy Majesty in public just because of his good looks?"

"Look quickly, the way the Holy One looks at An Cairen... so gentle that water can drip out!"

An Xiuhui suddenly realized that she had lost her composure when she heard the voices of other concubines talking.

She hastily lowered her eyes, and explained softly, "I have never seen the face of the Holy Majesty before, and now Sansheng is lucky enough to see the face of the Holy Majesty clearly, and I am so fascinated by it for a while... Concubine is guilty, please invite the Holy Majesty and the Queen Damn punish!"

Hearing her explanation, except for Murong Ze, the other concubines cast dissatisfied gazes at her.

There is no cure for a small talent who dares to seduce the Holy Majesty in public!

"Ha ha ha ha - interesting interesting -"

Murong Ze stared at the figure kneeling on the ground, and finally Long Yan was delighted, and said with a smile, "An Cairen is indeed cute, come here, and give An Cairen the set of red coral head masks that Fanbang paid tribute to a while ago!"

When this statement came out, everyone was lost.

The women in the harem don't know that the queen loves red corals the most?

The Holy Majesty actually gave the Queen's favorite things to this Ancai who had just entered the palace!
"Concubine... Thank you, Your Majesty!" An Xiuhui never expected Murongze to make such a surprise move.

She didn't want to show off at this banquet, but the reality is always cruel.

After tonight, she might be famous in this harem.

The banquet continued, and the atmosphere was joyous.

According to the custom of previous years, at the New Year's Eve banquet, the Holy One will spend the night with the Empress.

After returning to Chuxiu Palace, An Xiuhui told her personal maid to guard the door, and hurried into the inner hall.

Carefully took out the note hidden in the sachet, and after she finished reading the above content, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Huanxi said that Uncle Xu's body needs thousand-year-old purple ginseng.

And the thousand-year-old purple ginseng was locked in the emperor's private treasury.

So, if she wants to get purple ginseng, she must first gain the emperor's trust, even favor?
"Miss, the emperor is here." Honglian, who had been secretly protecting her, immediately reminded her.

An Xiuhui, who was still in a daze, immediately walked to the desk, and handed the note in her hand to the flickering candle.

In an instant, the note burned to ashes.

"It's so late, why doesn't Cairen still rest?" Murong Ze walked into the inner hall, saw An Xiuhui who was holding a book of Chinese stories with great interest, and silently raised his lips.

"Your Majesty?" An Xiuhui was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly got up and walked to his side, saluting respectfully, "I have seen Your Majesty!"

"Talented people don't have to be so cautious," Murong Ze waved his hand, and sat casually on the round stool in front of her, looking at her with a bit of curiosity, "I remember that talented people came from An Xionghu, the prefect of Yun'an. daughter?"

"Yes." An Xiuhui nodded obediently, stepped forward silently, and began to serve tea and water.

"The end of the year is approaching, and I'm busy with business. So I haven't had time to come and see you. I don't know how Cairen lives in Chuxiu Palace?"

"Thank you, Majesty, for your concubine, everything is fine." An Xiuhui replied very obediently.

Murongze was a little surprised by her meek appearance.

After all, he already knew her true identity well.

Murong Ze took a sip of tea, then got up suddenly, and approached An Xiuhui step by step. The latter subconsciously backed away until she was cornered by a wall, and at the moment when she had nowhere to escape, she clenched her fists tightly, her expression as usual. Tian Jing said, "My lord, today is New Year's Eve, you should be by the empress's side!"

"An Cairen, do you hate me? Don't you want me to favor you?" Murong Ze suddenly had a playful and contemptuous smile, and a mocking light flashed in his eyes, "But I was thinking, is An Cairen Do you really hate me? Or do you want to play hard to get? Or do you really want my life?"
