Meet at court banquet
That baby-faced lady is so edible!
After the Lantern Festival, Chai Shan returned to his daily life of going to the morning court, and the happy days of sticking to Tong Rong were gone forever.
Tong Rong's wind and chill were completely cured, and he could finally take a breath of relief, and no longer needed to deal with the excessive energy of His Majesty the Emperor.
After the new year, time has become hurried.In a blink of an eye, the spring canal melted, and the sun grew longer, and it has entered the spring of March.
On this day, a piece of good news came from Tongfu:
Tong Xiaxi's wedding date is set!
Since the Mei Yan competition last time, the two young people gradually fell in love with each other, and the two families were also happy to see the success, so they quickly made a decision.
At the same time, a good thing happened in the court.
Yunnan King Bai Zuozuo arrived in the capital to meet the emperor of the dynasty to show the loyalty of his subjects.
However, because of this incident, Chaishan has been in a difficult situation for the past two days.
Princess Duanyi, who was preparing for a marriage before, is seriously ill!
Shadow of the thirteen guards of the Shadow Division, known as the emperor's eagle and dog's minions, was like a shadow that merged into the darkness, with a hideous scar across his face, and he reported neatly and briefly: "King Hui doesn't want this to spread, the secret Several famous doctors were invited to live in the palace to diagnose and treat Princess Duanyi, but the princess is still getting worse day by day, and has been unable to get up in the past few days."
Chai Shan frowned, feeling very displeased with King Hui's deliberate concealment, and immediately said: "Tang Bao! Pass on my imperial order, ordering Tian Qing, the vice president of the Imperial Hospital, to go to Prince Hui's mansion immediately, and ask for the pulse of Princess Duanyi!"
"Yes!"
However, life always makes people sigh impermanence.
Although no one wanted this to happen, Princess Duanyi's condition continued to deteriorate, and she finally passed away completely on the day of the court banquet where the King of Yunnan met.
When Yin Ying brought back the news, Yunnan Wang Bai Zuo Zuo was sitting in the Zichen Palace, smiling, chatting with the courtiers around him over wine, completely unaware that he had just died and was arranged for his "fiancée".
When Cai Shan heard the news, his face froze for a moment. Although it was not obvious, Tong Rong who was sitting next to him sensitively and immediately captured it.
"what happened?"
Tong Rong held Chaishan's hand under the table and asked softly.
Chaishan shook his head slightly: "It's okay, I can't tell at the moment."
Tong Rong thoughtfully didn't ask any more questions, but just squeezed his hand under the table.
Caishan was comforted by [-]% to [-]% in an instant, and at this moment, he just felt that nothing was a big deal.
Under the table at the top of the Zichen Palace, the big hands were clasped behind their backs, and they tightly clenched the hands of the sweetheart.
But at this moment, Yunnan Wang Bai Zuozuo, sitting in the first seat on the left side of Zichen Hall, seemed to be chatting with the ministers, but his mind was wandering.
so boring...
The young Yunnan king sighed in his heart.
The palace is full of boring people, rigid and polite, meaningless at all.
It's over, the princess who will be married in the future must be like this, completely boring, with no flair at all... Huh?etc! !
Bai Zuo Zuo stared!
Because it was a court banquet, high-level concubines and wives also participated in the banquet and sat alone on one side.
In theory, except for the concubine who is "respecting the Buddha", Meng Shufei, the highest-ranking concubine, is just opposite Bai Zuozuo.
Bai Zuo Zuo looked around the palace boredly, and accidentally caught a glimpse of this baby-faced woman who was facing him.
Seems like a noble daughter?
The king of Yunnan was not familiar with the etiquette and seating arrangements in the Central Plains. Seeing that this woman was very young, he took it for granted that she was a princess, princess or something.
He held the corner of his eye with great interest and observed this baby-faced lady.
Meng Jiuyue came here to make up the numbers, and she didn't take a distracted look at the protagonist of the court banquet at all.She didn't even bother to take a look at what the king of Yunnan looked like, and enjoyed the delicious food at the court banquet on her own.
Bai Zuozuo watched helplessly as she ate from shortbread to roasted pork leg, from fermented glutinous rice soup to water basin mutton...
A table was full of delicacies, and the small mouth of the cherry opened and closed like a little squirrel, and most of it disappeared in the blink of an eye!
hiss--
Bai Zuozuo secretly gasped in his heart, and became even more interested, watching Meng Jiuyue who was eating and eating intently like watching a play.
"My lord! My lord!!"
The official Duozi was so anxious that he could not care about his dignity, poked Bai Zuozuo's arm with his hand, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is talking to you!!"
"Ah, what!" Bai Zuozuo woke up with a start, subconsciously picked up the wine glass and looked over, and saw that Cai Shan was holding the glass in the distance, making a toast.
Obviously, what His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia said just now, but he was too engrossed in watching the baby-faced lady eat, so he didn't hear it.
Bai Zuozuo hurriedly got up, punished himself with a drink, and apologized with a smile: "Your Majesty, forgive me, I was thinking about an unfeeling request in my heart, and I was thinking about how to speak to my majesty, but I missed your majesty's words, it is really my fault." Pass!"
Of course, it was impossible for Chaishan to blame him, so he went down the slope and asked: "I don't know what Ai Qing asked for?"
Bai Zuozuo thought for a moment, thinking of Wang Xiang's earnest advice, he still had a toothache and said: "Since I took the throne, I have never been married, and I adore the dignity of a woman from the Central Plains. A noble daughter from the Central Plains is my wife!"
It was exactly this matter that Chaishan was having a headache with, but the King of Yunnan proposed it, so naturally it was impossible to refuse, so he agreed immediately.
A marriage is finalized like this, but the bride still doesn't know where she is...
After the court banquet that day, Chai Shan immediately found his confidant ministers and King Lian to discuss the matter of marriage.
Several people discussed until the night was dark, and drew up a few tentative candidates, and then hurriedly dispersed.
……
Back at Jiaofang Hall, after washing, Chai Shan walked into the inner room lightly, thinking that Tong Rong must have already fallen asleep by this time.
Unexpectedly, there were still a few candle lamps on in the inner room, and Tong Rong was leaning against the bed rail to read a book with his long black hair hanging loose.
Chaishan wondered, "Zitong, why haven't you slept yet?"
Tong Rong put down the book casually, turned her head slowly, and looked up at him in the dim light of the candle.
did not speak.
But at this time, silence is better than sound...
Chaishan's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly understood what he was about to say in that look.
He stepped forward in a few quick steps, clung to Tong Rong's side, hugged him, buried his head in Tong Rong's shoulder socket like a big wolfdog, and rubbed hard, his heart couldn't be warmer.
His brother Rong is waiting for him to fall asleep together!
"Brother Rong, if I'm late next time, you can sleep by yourself first, don't wait for me."
A certain person stuck to it for a while, and then began to feel sorry for his darling who always had a regular schedule. He stroked the hair of the person in his arms, wrapped him up in the brocade quilt, and hugged him whole with the quilt.
Tong Rong struggled, but she was hugged too tightly and couldn't draw her hands out.
He looked at Caishan helplessly, with a hint of helplessness and affection in his eyes, and lightly bit Chaishan's chin.
"Xiao Shan, it's too tight to hug you, relax a bit—"
Unconsciously, that coquettish tone emerged again in this night when there were only two of them.
It's like being coquettish.
When Cai Shan heard this, he immediately pricked up his ears, and rubbed the person several times with bright eyes, and then reluctantly let go.
Let go, but I still want to cling, but after all, I have been tossing and tossing for half a night last night, and Caishan is not willing to make some big moves at such a late hour to affect Tong Rong's sleep.
So, His Majesty the Emperor turned his brains around, and came up with a killer trick: "Brother Rong, I'm so tired, thinking about things gives me a headache!"
Sure enough, it was a one-hit kill!
Tong Rong's hand that pushed the person out immediately paused, looking at the pitiful look of the tall adult man who was sticking to his shoulder, trying to "catch him".Although I know that at least half of him is pretending, but in the end I still feel distressed.
"You..."
Tong Rong stretched out his arms helplessly, wrapped his arms around Chaishan's head, and placed it gently on his lap.
Slender fingers like onion knuckles pressed against the temples and massaged them gently.
Cai Shan leaned comfortably in Tong Rong's arms, so happy that he forgot all his troubles.
I wondered in my heart when the Qingshui Mingsha pajamas that I ordered from Shangfu's female officer last time would be replenished.
Tong Rong suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Xiaoshan, why are you suddenly troubled at the court banquet today?"
Cai Shan stretched out his hand to hold Tong Rong's plain finger, rolled it in his arms, and stuck it to his sweetheart's warm and soft belly.
"Because of our marriage with the King of Yunnan, we specially promoted Princess Duanyi as a princess. According to the news from Shadow today, Duanyi died in the morning..."
Tong Rong untied Chaishan's bun, and combed his hair with his slender fingers.
Chai Shan clung to Tong Rong's arms, sniffing the breath of this man, vaguely troubled about the whole day, but at this moment when he spoke out, he didn't feel upset.
Just calm, like a fish swimming in the arms of the sea.
"Duanyi is gone, and the clan reappears as a conferred princess. The Yunnan side may feel uncomfortable. If it is directly married with a princess or a noble daughter or noble man from an ordinary family, and the status does not match, she is the wife of the king of Yunnan after all..."
Tong Rong combed Cai Shan's hair and listened quietly to him talking about his political troubles.
In the end, he thought for a while and suggested: "Why don't you marry the princess first, and then seal the princess in this name after the marriage is confirmed. At that time, the seal is a grace for the King of Yunnan, and maybe it can solve the problem a little bit. "
Chai Shan smiled and hugged Tong Rong's waist with his backhand: "Brother Rong knows me, and I thought so too, but in the end it's better to be ready from the beginning."
The two chatted about this matter, chatted in whispers for a while, hugged each other, wrapped in a quilt and fell asleep with their necks kissed.
……
The emperor and empress of the Tian family embraced each other to sleep, while on the other side, Bai Zuozuo who lived in the Yuci Xing mansion was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
As soon as he closed his eyes, the cute eating appearance of that baby-faced lady at the court banquet today involuntarily appeared in his mind.
If anyone is lucky enough to marry this woman, the meal will definitely be ten times better!
"What the hell am I thinking!?"
Bai Zuozuo sneered at the idea that popped up in his head, but there was some expectation in his heart.
Sitting in such a front place, according to Daxia's etiquette, she is probably a princess! ?
With some indescribable expectations, No.90 turned over nine times, and gently closed his eyes.

Bai Zuo Zuo: Fans of eating and broadcasting!
