The young girl shyly whispered as she lowered her head. The raven's long hair was tied up in a double bun, and Dai Mi Zhu was wearing a light silver lily dress.
The girl's slim figure and clean clothes made her look like a tiny lily blooming in a spring valley. She looked fresh, refined, and beautiful.
Such a beautiful scene, Li Chenbai did not even glance at it. He did not even pause as he walked in front of her, only giving a "hmm" in response.
This was treating her like an ordinary maid!
Feng Yingtong was embarrassed, anxious, angry and annoyed. Her tears were rolling in her eyes as she stamped her feet with a flushed face.
No, I have to talk to him! Otherwise, when he returned to Bashu, she would not know how long it would be before she would see him again!
He took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to chase up to Li Chenbai.
Li Chenbai looked at her carefully this time.
Her double bun reminded him of that little girl called Tangerine who had combed her double bun.
The little girl whose eyes sparkled the moment she saw him!
The little girl who changed his horse's name!
Yet, he was still a girl that was willing to let her change!
Warmth emerged from the bottom of Li Chen's eyes. It was as if the morning sun had broken through the clouds as the radiance on his cold face instantly intensified. Warm mountains and soft water filled with countless stars, how could it compare to this person in any way? Feng Yingtong looked at him in infatuation, unable to shift her gaze away for a long time.
Li Chenbai waited for a moment, and when he saw the woman still standing there dumbly, he frowned slightly. He did not pay any more attention to her and continued walking forward.
As he brushed past her, her snow-white clothes fluttered in the wind, and her long black hair drooped down. Her breathing was filled with the delicate fragrance of the dragon's saliva. Feng Yingtong quivered, and as if she had just awoken from a dream, she gave chase once again.
He didn't dare to look at him anymore. He just kept his eyes closed and said everything that had been on his mind for a long time:
"Sixth Prince, my daughter's surname is Feng, and her name is Yingtong." Admire Your Highness... "Your Highness, I wonder if I can ask you to guide my daughter in riding?"
"Feng?" Li Chenbai finally spoke. "Young lady and esteemed empress are …"
"The empress is my elder sister!" He finally managed to get in touch with her! Feng Yingtong's little heart was thumping wildly as she was in high spirits.
"Oh? So it's the Young Miss of Grand Preceptor Feng's estate. Li Chenbai saluted with his long hands, and Feng Yingtong quickly returned the salutation.
After the ceremony. Li Chenbai sighed. "Not to mention for the Empress' sake, even for the Grand Preceptor's sake, this prince shouldn't refuse." However, he might have been in too much of a hurry recently, and his eyes were slightly unsightly. He might not be able to help the young lady, so he had to ask the young lady to send someone else. As far as this king knows, the wife of Cui Jieyin, the Foreign Minister of the Temple of Taihu, is extremely skilled in riding. Since the two of you are also women, it would be more appropriate for her to guide the girl. "
He … He really was a person who was cold on the outside but hot on the inside. He was considerate of others at every turn!
Feng Yingtong's heart was sour and sweet, "He is only a stranger, yet he can be so considerate. I wonder how fascinating he would be if he were to fall in love with a girl …"
The reason why Li Chenbai said so much to her was just to tactfully decline, but he wanted to use her to tell the emperor that there was something wrong with his eyes.
If he had known earlier that one or two of his courteous words from Feng Ying'er would lead to such a distant, deep, and emotional entanglement, he would have jumped up in anger: "What will happen to laozi? This daddy only knows how to wash her skirt! How about it? So charming! "
Far away in Jiazhou, Ye Zimo began to sneeze as soon as he took out the string of eighteen buddhist beads from his pocket. He hurriedly stuffed them back under his pillow. Inwardly, he was puzzled: This thing was still a buddhist pearl. Why couldn't it protect a cold?
"..."
The banquet in the Hibiscus Courtyard was not only the Empress' birthday banquet, but also a reunion feast for all her brothers. There was also a title that could not be said to be said — the first banquet after the new emperor ascended the throne! Therefore, even though it was a filial period, only vegetarian, can not drum music, the banquet was still grand and enthusiastic.
Do not drum, sing or dance. Work on food and utensils.
All of them were made of rosewood, with gold and ivory cutlery. The cups and plates included small chopsticks, all of which were made of pink and white porcelain. Soft porcelain was placed on a dark table, and the food on the plate was arranged in an intricate pattern, so beautiful that it was difficult to put down one's chopsticks.
The Empress occupied the highest position, with the brothers and concubines in the imperial palace divided into two sides.
Opposite Li Chenbai sat his own mother, Grand Concubine Xie. She was sitting up straight with a face full of smiles as if she had not seen her son in a long time.
Grand Concubine Xie had a gentle appearance and a docile personality. She was respectful and humble at every turn. The most important thing was that she wasn't doted upon by the late emperor, so she didn't attract too much attention. Her days in the imperial harem were smooth sailing as well. Now that he was promoted to the imperial concubine, he would have no worries whatsoever.
She just missed her son.
Li Chenbai looked at his mufei with mixed feelings.
According to the rules, a prince could bring his mother out of the palace to enjoy the happiness of the heavens, but this rule had almost never been implemented since the time of the Ancestor. In the history of the dynasty, only one or two concubines were allowed to leave the palace to reunite with their son, and they were all already over seventy years old before being allowed to leave.
Too young to leave the palace. What if the late emperor was given a full hat to wear? It would be safer to leave it in the palace!
As for the suspicious Li Chengming, it was even more impossible for him to do so. He had to capture as many hostages as possible in his hands!
Thus, this was the only time they could look at each other like this.
The Tian Family did not have any flesh and blood.
The banquet began with everyone congratulating the empress on her victory over Fang Chen as they presented their respective gifts. Li Chengming said to his four younger brothers, "It's not easy for your mufei to bring up your parents. Each of you go and drink a cup of wine to your mufei."
Grand Concubine Xie's tears rolled down as she looked at her son approaching with the cup on his knees. She said in a choked voice, "Good child, you … you must be good …" and could no longer speak. She took the cup and drank it in one gulp, trembling.
A young woman's voice interjected from the side and comforted gently, "Empress, you are overjoyed. Don't cry. If you cry and hurt your body because of this, Sixth Brother will also feel uneasy." Grand Concubine Xie wiped her hands and offered her a handkerchief, looking extremely gentle and virtuous.
Only now did Li Chenbai realize that Queen Feng's own sister, Feng Yingtong, was sitting right next to his mother's consort! She lowered her head to look at him attentively with a gentle and kind daughter-in-law. Furthermore, her face was blushing red as she looked at him affectionately!
It was a hot summer day in June, and the heat was scorching. However, Li Chenbai suddenly shivered.
After the toast, Li Chengming called his fifth and sixth brother over and asked warmly, "When you left the palace that day, you were still feeling a little unwell. How was everything today?"
Fifth Prince Li Xu Feng's residence was in the northeast, the number "Liaobei King". His skin had been itchy that day. Li Chenbai went back to talk to Hong Ying Mu time, Hong Ying immediately knew that this is another kind of poison in the Valley of the Phlebotomus, called "Glazed Beauty", its medicine is extremely insidious. When used on a person, the effects are entirely different due to the difference in the physiques of the male and female.
If it was a woman who was poisoned, she would not die, but her bones would become as brittle as glass for twenty to thirty years. If she was not careful, she would fracture and die in extreme pain.
If it was used on a man, his entire body would first feel extremely itchy. A few days later, the effects of the medicine entered his body, but there were no other symptoms. This man's appearance was not that old, and his skin would even become more crystalline and smooth as he aged, just like a good girl.
However, there was no longer any humanity that could extend to their children.
