No concubine, black-bellied princess

Chapter 23

Seeing the surprise on her face, Nan Yaoyu, who first got off the carriage, raised his arm and pointed to the left, "The Prince's Mansion and the Imperial Palace are separated by a wall!"

What?
Not allowing Tang Qianqian to be suspicious, Nan Yaoyu had already grabbed her waist, "Since the Crown Princess has lost her memory, I will accompany the Crown Princess for a while first."

Several guards opened the way ahead, and the prince's six-person chariot walked slowly in the palace.

At this time, the sun was shining at sunset, and the brilliant light shrouded the two of them, and the whole body seemed to be covered with golden colored glaze.

"This is the imperial garden—"

"Walking over there is the Palace of the First Empress, Fengyi Palace—"

"This is the Laiyi Palace of Concubine Shu..."

Tang Qianqian half leaned against Nan Yaoyu's arms, and seemed to be seriously listening to the strict introduction of Tong Zi who was accompanying her below.

In front of this ancient building that can be used for research, the curiosity in his head was immediately aroused, and he wished to open a few more eyes to take a good look, but those palaces such as Laiyi, Fengyi, etc. The name poured into her head like running water, which simply made her dizzy. ...This introduction is faster than third-rate tour guides in some places!
Fortunately, the huge palace is really big enough, and soon the sky gradually darkened, and the introduction of a third-rate tour guide came to an end.

Tang Qianqian let out a deep breath, and turned to look at Nan Yaoyu, who had been watching her all the way, with a guilty expression on her face.

"Prince, the concubine really doesn't have the slightest impression!"

Nan Yaoyu smiled, and the arms around her waist tightened imperceptibly, her gorgeous face was peerless.

"It's okay, it's because I didn't check for a while that the Crown Princess suffered this kind of ordeal. In the future, the Crown Princess will often come and walk around, maybe I can remember something!"

The warm and refreshing words are only touching.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your understanding!"

Tang Qianqian looked at Nan Yaoyu, her eyes were almost crystal clear.

Nan Yaoyu nodded reassuringly, then turned to look at Tongzi who was on the side, "Go to Yaohua Palace—" If it was warm just now, it was cold in an instant.

"Yes!"

Yaohua Palace.

The place where the emperor of Yaoguo held a banquet for his ministers.

When the chariots of Tang Qianqian and Nan Yaoyu arrived outside the hall, there were already bright lights hanging high.The sound of silk and bamboo came from the side hall.And the voices of discussions in the middle of the main hall came outside through the half-open door.

"His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess is here—"

Following the chanting of the ceremony officials outside, the discussion in the hall almost immediately stopped.

The heavy palace door opened.

Nan Yaoyu and Tang Qianqian stood in front of everyone.

"I have met His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess—"

All the civil and military officials in the hall bowed, and the almost simultaneous voice made Tang Qianqian's scalp tingle.

Even if the only thing to enter now is the ancient court clothes and official hat of the crow in front of him.But this was also the first time Tang Qianqian saw so many ancient officials with his own eyes.

"You don't need to be too polite!" Nan Yaoyu raised his hand to help.

"Thank you prince, thank you princess!"

All the officials present stood up.

Afterwards, Nan Yaoyu and Tang Qianqian walked to the seat of the prince and princess in front of the hall.

As she walked, Tang Qianqian obviously only glanced over the heads of the crowd, but she seemed to see everyone.

Smiling jaw, full of luxury.

There were many eyes looking at her from all around, except for the father, Tang Qianqian did not know anyone, and among the many eyes looking at her, there were amazement, surprise, inquiry, and even a little bit of insignificance. the disgust of...

Tang Qianqian's gaze flicked over and stopped slightly in front of a person.

He was wearing a blue python robe, with dazzling pearls on his head, and his handsome face was so familiar that he seemed to have seen it somewhere...

Since she entered the hall, he has been looking at her, his eyes are as bright as obsidian, but she can't understand the look of lightness in him.

At this time, her waist tightened, and the man beside her whispered intimately in her ear, "...Aifei, who are you looking at?"

Tang Qianqian raised her eyes and smiled brightly. "...The concubine only has eyes for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Nan Yaoyu raised his eyebrows, and walked forward happily, but there was a light arc drawn at the corner of his mouth where no one could see.

Soon, Nan Yaoyu and Tang Qianqian sat down.

Coincidentally, the man that Tang Qianqian noticed earlier was very likely to be a brother of the prince next to him was sitting opposite.But at this moment, that person no longer looked at her, just lowered his head and played with the cup in front of him.

Knowing that the prince next to her was staring at her from time to time, Tang Qianqian couldn't help but look in that man's direction.

Judging by the clothes on his body, he should also be a prince or something.And looking at his age, no matter what, he was older than the prince beside him.I remember that there is a saying in Yaoguo Shilu that the current emperor has no brothers. Could it be that he is some kind of distant relative of the royal family?
The most important thing is the way he looked at her just now... Although she still can't figure out what's in that look, it's just very wrong!
"He is the elder brother of this palace, that is, the general of the army of this dynasty!"

Suddenly, a familiar cold voice came from my ear.

Tang Qianqian was taken aback for a moment, and her gaze fell straight on the man opposite.No wonder I thought he looked familiar just now, he was obviously similar to the prince beside her in some places.

And the person on the other side seemed to have noticed her gaze, looked up and looked at each other, and there was a lot of nostalgia and reluctance in those bright eyes...

A light flashed in Tang Qianqian's head.

Could it be that he and the former Tang Qianbi——

Tang Qianqian couldn't allow Tang Qianqian to delve into this issue any further, the bells and drums rang together, and the empress had arrived.

Tang Qianqian stood up with a group of officials and bowed to welcome the arrival of the supreme ruler of Yao Kingdom.

The palace lantern hung high, and the golden dragon robe was like a dazzling pearl. Tang Qianqian's eyes were dizzy for a while. The handsome face that resembled the man next to him was just a light sweep. Surrender involuntarily.

The woman next to her was dressed in rich clothes, and her graceful face showed her manners.It's just that the charming and composed eyebrows and eyes are even more beautiful.

And just as Tang Qianqian was looking carefully, the woman just turned her head to look over, and smiled at her with curved lips.

At that moment, I only felt the beauty of the city and the clear water, as beautiful as nature itself.

Tang Qianqian felt that Tang Qianbi's skin was beautiful enough, but if she compared it with the woman in front of her, she could only be described by the four words "looking like her".

And even if it was just Tang Qianqian who lost his mind for a moment, the woman could still see clearly, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became stronger and stronger.

This time, Tang Qianqian came back to her senses.

——This smile, no matter how you look at it, is exactly the same as the man beside you!

It was obviously a smile, but it just made her heart tremble.

At this time, a shrill voice sounded in my ears at the same time, "The emperor is here, and the concubine Shu is here—"

When the emperor and concubine Shu sat in the middle seat, and the officials bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, the palace banquet officially began.

The procedure was similar to what Tang Qianqian had thought before. The emperor first made a grandiose official cliché about the hard work of all his officials.Then he lavishly praised His Highness the First Prince, that is, the great happy event that the general of the town army that Tang Qianqian just knew had returned from victory, and the border was temporarily peaceful.The imperial decree was issued saying that all soldiers participating in the battle will be promoted to three ranks in a row.

The general of the town army thanked the emperor for his kindness.But he also said that he was willing to distribute the gift that rewarded him to those soldiers who died for the country.Hearing this, all the officials present praised him again and again.The emperor doubled the reward with joy on his face.Then the ministers continued to compliment him like "long live wise".

Tang Qianqian looked at the similar plot in front of her that could only be seen on TV, her hands hidden under the table almost pinched her palms so hard that she could barely maintain a graceful smile on her face.

I used to think it was funny watching those on TV, but now watching it with my own eyes, I want to laugh even more.

It just seemed that she was not the only one who was struggling to hold on. When the officials shouted "Long live the wise" in unison, she clearly heard a cold snort from the prince sitting next to him.

...Even though the voice was very low, she still heard it clearly.

With a slight frown, Tang Qianqian looked sideways.

Similar to the emperor on the high platform, but even more handsome, the corners of the upper lips are slightly curved, the smile is floating, and the expression in the eyes is flickering, obviously agreeing...

Uh, could it be her tinnitus just now?

I don't know if her gaze is too focused, or the expression on her face is too obvious.Before Tang Qianqian looked back, Nan Yaoyu turned to look at her.There was a wicked charm on the corner of his lips,
Afterwards, Tang Qianqian's waist tightened, "...Have you seen enough?"

Tang Qian raised her lips, and let out a smile that she thought was quite gentle,

"Your Highness, this is the main hall..."

Nan Yaoyu lifted Tang Qianqian's chin with one hand, and approached her again, "...Of course I know!"

The slightly cool breath sprayed behind her ears, and her whole body trembled.

She doesn't mind fighting wits with this prince anywhere, but now, sitting not far from You Qi is her real father.She still has to restrain herself, after all, she is really afraid that her father will not be able to bear it.

Tang Qianqian twitched the corner of her mouth, thinking of something to say to make this man merciful, but at this moment, she heard a voice above her head - "Princess Concubine".

Tang Qianqian raised her head, only to realize that the general of the town army had retreated to her seat at some point, and the emperor on the high platform was looking at her with a smile.Not only the emperor, but even all court officials in the entire hall looked at her.

Uh--

Turning to look at the man next to him, the enchanting face looked at her with a gentle smile, and the hand that was on her waist just now shrank back at some point, as if he was just sitting obediently just now. That's all.

So, when the emperor was talking to her, she was staring at the man beside her in a daze?
...or is it a nympho?

She was calculated!
The person who plotted against her was none other than the man beside her!

This turtle-haired prince!

Tang Qianqian's brows and eyes were slightly curved, showing what she thought was the most appropriate smile, and she stood up gracefully.
