Chapter 32

It was not easy until the Millennium Festival, the emperor's birthday, and the Palace Banquet was held in the evening, but the Wang family got ready early in the morning.

Pei Ming doesn't wait until afternoon to make up. Pei Yu comes to her and says that he wants to take the same carriage. It seems that he is not happy with Wang.

Her sister is a solid one. Since she apologized that day, she really looked at her.

Wang naturally did not want to, but he had nothing to do. After the carriage entered the palace, he had to walk. Just as the Xu family came, Xu Yi gave Pei Ming a very gentle salute. Although he restrained himself, he still showed some uneasiness.

Pei Ming just doesn't pay attention. He follows Wang into the main hall and takes his place. Soon Xue tingji comes too. He can't help looking for Pei Ming.

But Pei Ming just kept his head down and didn't move, reminding him that he shouldn't look around too much. When the princes were seated, he heard the announcement of the arrival of the prince.

When all the people met, the prince's eyes only focused on Xue tingji. After sitting down, he pretended to ask about the rare gift that the sixth brother had prepared. Xue tingji was not as resentful as usual. He bowed himself and said, "it's not as valuable as the prince."

The prince laughed unkindly, "do you want to compete with me?"

When the atmosphere on the hall was cold for three minutes, the eunuch Wu called the emperor and empress, and the crown prince led the ministers to kneel down to worship. His rebellious face disappeared.

The emperor sat high on the dragon's throne and ordered her to straighten up. Pei Yu almost got caught by her long skirt when she got up. Fortunately, Pei ming helped her secretly.

Xue tingji still couldn't help but peep at her. Seeing this, he raised his mouth and was looked at by the emperor, but he didn't smile. The Palace Banquet officially began.

It's a pity that Pei Ming didn't like it, especially the golden silk cup.

But Xue tingji saw this, recalled her thin anger that day, and pushed the dish aside in disgust.

At the banquet, music and dance are indispensable. Taking this opportunity, she can see Pei Ming more, but she always looks at him as if she really doesn't know him.

This makes him a little bored. Up to now, his relationship with Pei Ming can't be explained clearly. She has to be afraid of the prince's threat, but she always wants to refuse and welcome him, leaving him to fight alone.

The emperor's interest gradually improved, and the prince began to offer gifts at the right time. A rare blue jade carving won the first prize. The officials also flattered the prince's filial piety. Only Pei Ming and Xue tingji kept silent.

After that, all the princes presented gifts one by one. They were all the most precious things in the world. No matter how bad they were, they also spent a lot of time and effort to carve them out. Beauty is beautiful, but it's not uncommon to see more.

When it's Xue tingji's turn, Pei Ming buries his head a little lower. Rao is still able to feel the prince's gaze.

But soon, Xue tingji's gift almost made him lose his temper, "ha ha, sixth brother, if you put all your energy on Miss Pei, you shouldn't be so perfunctory!"

Placed in the hall, is a salted fish, a bowl of wine meal, and a stack of preserved vegetables.

Don't say to have the intention to make trouble for his prince, even the emperor also coldly under the face, "old six, what do you mean?"

Pei Ming secretly pinched his sweat. This guy really dares to present these. If the emperor is not happy, how can he do.

Xue tingji seems to have a good heart, heard her abdominal Fei, slightly tilted his head, and then explained.

"This salted fish is made from the fish left by the common people after the Spring Festival. This wine meal is made from the rice left over from the previous years. This preserved vegetable is pickled with vegetables that the common people can't eat every season. The Great Harmony has made the country rich and the people strong, and the people have plenty of food and clothing. They not only have enough to eat, but also have some leftovers. All these are the achievements of the father and the emperor. The common things of the people are the best gifts presented by the people of the world to the emperor of Ming Dynasty! "

Finish saying, kneel down to solemnly line on a ceremony, words sonorous, awe!

His highness was silent, but his voice didn't go away. Pei Ming clenched his fist, but he didn't worry as much as before.

Sure enough, after two or three breaths, the emperor suddenly stood up, stepped down from the high platform, came to the three gifts, looked at the people's food with great interest, patted Xue tingji on the shoulder, and laughed, "good!"

Pei Ming is worried. His shoulder has just healed. This beat will always hurt.

Fortunately, the emperor turned around and went back to the throne. He drank a glass and said, "my son, I have a heart!"

Xue tingji took advantage of the situation to show off. This time, he won the crown prince's victory. He even wanted to hold Pei Ming and kiss him now!

The prince gritted his teeth and looked at his mother.

After all the princes presented their congratulatory gifts, the White Queen opened her lips gracefully and said, "it's a pity that general Pei is guarding the frontier. It must be very difficult for Pei's wife."

Wang Shi, who was named, immediately gave thanks. Pei Ming's eyes flashed. He had already expected that the queen would speak.

General Pei has made great contributions to the protection of the country and granted his wife Wang the title of second grade Gaoming's wife!

After all, this life is still like this. Er pin Gao Ming is at the same level as Pei Changyuan, a general of Er pin. Husband and wife are equal. What a glory it is!He clenched his fists silently and let his nails dig deep into his heart. In his last life, Wang relied on his identity as Gao Ming. Even after Pei Changyuan died, he did not coerce her any more and persecuted her more!

This time, even if Wang's life is too expensive, she still wants to make her life worse than death!

But now, she has to compromise for the time being, taking this opportunity

Yu Guang glances at Xu Yi and has a plan in his mind.

When Wang returned to her seat, she quietly got up and left the hall, always paying attention to her. Xu Yi saw that she looked lonely and followed her out.

How could Xue tingji not see this scene? This wants to get up, but glimpses the prince's covetous, bite teeth, can only temporarily endure, by covering sleeve drinking, watching Pei Ming leave.

When he got out of the hall, Pei Ming deliberately hid under a step half lighted by the light. With a long sigh, his long skirt made him thinner and thinner.

Xu Yi came forward to call her, looking even more sad than her, "mingniang, even if your wife is Gaoming, she can't hurt you."

Pei Ming shook his head with a wry smile, and there was some tears in his eyes? But I'm still afraid. She used to treat me Now that it's expensive, even my father can no longer dispose of her at will. What can I do

She is as bright as she is. Now she is so sad. How can Xu Yi not feel distressed? He steps closer, but he doesn't touch her like Xue tingji.

"Don't worry, mingniang. I'll protect you. I'll try to find a way to break our fate. I'll marry you and let others never hurt you again."

He said it seriously, but Pei Ming only felt cold.

Protecting her? He said the same thing in the last life, but did he protect her when she was in real danger? Seeing her stand idly by after suffering, have you ever thought about what you said!

He is a man who can only say these meaningless and pale empty words. If you believe him, you will end up worse than falling in love with Xue tingji.

But she had to hide the hatred. Just as she wanted to thank him for his kindness, she heard a taunt.

"How much skill do you dare to boast about this Haikou?" Xue tingji's heavy steps seem to bear the heavy pressure. This kind of pressure also makes Xu Yi shrink back. He bows down to give him a seat.

Xue tingji didn't miss Pei Ming's instant disdain. He didn't care to guess anything. He asked Xu Yi to return to the table first in a cold tone, but he pulled Pei Ming into the dark.
