Chapter 91
"Mother, the Holy Majesty's celebrity doesn't mean anything good." Gong Xiangru said lightly.

Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.How could she not know.After all, her husband, her son and her daughter are all like this.Her face froze for a moment, and Mrs. Gong's eyebrows were filled with a faint worry: "I heard from the princess that she was called by the queen mother for questioning."

"Mother seems to care about this person very much." Seeing Mrs. Gong's repeated questioning, making people not suspicious, Gong Xiangru looked at her mother's face, as if looking for unusual signs on it.

"I just heard about it from the Princess, and it sounds quite interesting." Madam Gong quickly cut off the conversation when she saw her son becoming suspicious, and changed the subject, "By the way, the Princess Palace sent an invitation card and wanted to invite us. People from the palace go to the lantern festival."

"Did mother refuse?" Gong Xiangru picked up the teacup and took a sip, as if he knew about it.

"No. I would like to hear your own opinion before discussing it." Mrs. Gong replied.

Gong Xiangru finished drinking tea and said: "If the Holy Majesty is going, I will definitely go with him. But the Holy Majesty probably won't go, and the Majesty promised me to help me refuse. If mother wants to go there to relieve boredom, I will let Uncle Six accompany you." You go together."

After hearing what her son said, Mrs. Gong immediately smiled knowingly, and said, "I know you won't go. But at your age, which girl you like, remember to tell your mother first."

"That's needless to say. I will marry the girl who sincerely respects my mother." Gong Xiangru said softly.

Mrs. Gong raised her handkerchief to cover her mouth, she was very happy to be teased by her son's words.

"Mother, let me help you into the house to rest. Tomorrow night, if you want to go, I'll have the carriage ready." Saying this, Gong Xiangru got up and helped Mrs. Gong.

The mother and son walked into the house.Gong Xiangru scanned the room and found that a scroll of paintings on the mother's desk was missing.

Sensing his gaze, Mrs. Gong said: "The princess likes Jinxi's painting, so I gave it to the princess."

When Gong Xiangru heard this, his lips were tightly closed.

Seeing that her son didn't like being taken away from her sister's belongings, Mrs. Gong sighed: "Xiangru, Jinxi has been gone for so long. Also, she belongs to everyone who likes her. The Princess likes her and misses her, so She's a good thing."

"With her temperament, she may not be able to appreciate Jinxi's paintings."

Seeing that her son was still awkward, Mrs. Gong had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.

The next day, Hua Xiyan wanted Li Shunde to help her return to the Princess's Mansion, but said she would not go.At this time, Princess Ji Yao sent a message from the princess mansion, saying that she wanted her to attend the Lantern Festival and wanted to tell her something.Thinking that the princess must have something urgent to tell her, he just let her use this opportunity to leave the palace.

Hua Xiyan thought that if she went to the princess's mansion and went directly to Princess Ji Yao, it would be no trouble without dealing with others, so she asked Li Shunde to respond to the people in the eldest princess's mansion, saying that she would go.

After hearing her reply, Li Shunde definitely wanted to report back to Li Zimo first.So, that afternoon, after receiving the envoys, there was no other important business, and I wanted to listen to the ditty Shengyan with my close ministers in the imperial garden, but wandered around in the house.

Soon after, Yifeng received an order to prepare for the car.

Hua Xiyan borrowed a decent set of clothes from Aunt Liu, put them on, and prepared to go to the Princess's Mansion by herself.Of course, before going, you must first talk to the emperor.However, presumably he will not refuse, after all, this is an invitation post from his aunt.

Dressed neatly, when he came to him, Li Shunde stood at the door waiting for her, and said: "The Holy Majesty is waiting for Yan Shangshu to pass by in the carriage."

He's going to the lantern festival too?How come she never heard of it?
Hua Xiyan was stunned for a while, then was dragged by Li Shun to the door.

Next to the corner gate, a carriage was parked, said to be a royal carriage, but apart from receiving guests and state ceremonies, Emperor Dongling didn't like to ride in a resplendent and magnificent royal carriage, but preferred a plain carriage that looked no different from civilian use in disguise.

Hua Xiyan could imagine that this person was used to going out on tour in micro clothes.An emperor who looks dull on the outside, but is full of playfulness on the inside.It's just that this time it's going to the eldest princess's mansion, and she and he are in the same carriage, so how can we not let people gossip.

Didn't he deliberately snub her these few days?
Puzzled.She stepped onto the footstool and into the carriage.When we got to the car, we realized that he wasn't the only one.Gong Xiangru sat on the other side of the couch, carefully crossing his sleeves with his hands, looking extremely cautious.

"I heard that you play chess very well, Yan Shangshu. Gong Qing said that your son's backgammon is better than Gong Qing. Yan Shangshu came to fight with me." Long Yan opened his mouth and tapped his fingers on the chessboard.

Gong Xiangru immediately gave way to her.

Hua Xiyan walked to the table, sat down without rushing, and asked respectfully: "Is Your Majesty going to attend the Lantern Festival of the Eldest Princess?"

"Zhen, I'm passing by the eldest princess's mansion, and I'll drop you off on the way." The person who answered her didn't dare to look her in the eye.

At first, Hua Xiyan failed to understand the meaning of his words.When the carriage arrived at the Princess's mansion, two men in the carriage took out human skin masks to cover their faces in front of her.

At that moment, her scalp felt a little numb.Sure enough, someone who was disguised as a domestic servant coughed twice, and pretended to tell her: "I want to go out to visit the Princess's Mansion in low clothes, and I will be covered by Yan Shangshu. Remember, this is official business." , Yan Shangshu must not reveal my true identity."

Hua Xiyan's feet hurt for a moment.I don't understand how I got involved with such a rogue emperor.

The carriage arrived at the Princess' Mansion.People from the Princess' Mansion had already greeted all the guests at the door.Since Yan Shangshu is not a special honored guest, it should be said that the eldest princess was reluctant to invite her to come, and the intention was to let Li Zimo come. As a result, when she was the only one who came and Li Zimo did not show up at all, the receptionist Her people naturally cooled the enthusiasm.Fortunately, Princess Ji Yao sent her maid, Sanqi, to wait for her at the door.

When the other servants went to flatter other guests, Sanqi was quick to move, ran to Hua Xiyan, blessed her body and said: "Yan Shangshu, the servant is sent by the princess, named Sanqi, the princess asked The servant girl brought Yan Shangshu to the princess' boudoir to talk."

Coincidentally, she didn't come to participate in the Lantern Festival, so she followed Sanqi and hid in the princess's room.

Just as her front foot was about to follow Sanqi up, a secret word from behind suddenly came into her ear: "Wait, I want to see if there are any other people coming to the lantern festival."

The emperor is a trouble, a burden.Hua Xiyan finally deeply realized the difficulty of being a courtier.

Showing his teeth slightly, he teased the emperor and said: "The majesty has already changed his face perfectly, and he will not be recognized wherever he goes. The women go to the princess's room. Where is the majesty? If you want to find food or look for a latrine, you can get away with it."
