tribute male queen

He won't be so stupid as that woman, and have nothing to do with this kind of muddy water.

The imperial concubine chuckled, "It's all free, Manager Cheng."

An Cheng also smiled apologetically, and said: "Madam, this is Mr. Helan, Your Majesty ordered the slaves to bring you to the banquet."

The imperial concubine snorted, and said: "That's it, then you can do it yourself, my palace will go in first, and His Majesty is still waiting."

An Cheng moved out of the way, waited until the imperial concubine brought everyone into the hall, then straightened up, beckoning He Lancong to follow him in.

In the main hall, civil and military officials of the Northern Cang Dynasty sat on the left and right, whispering to each other, which was very lively.

He Lancong was led to the emperor's side along the corridor beside the main hall, but he didn't attract much attention.

At the top, He Lan Ruyue sat here firmly as a concubine, and when she saw her brother, she quietly gave a worried look.

He Lancong was taken aback for a moment, then looked into the hall, the civil and military personnel on both sides had quieted down at some point, and cast curious eyes on him.On the emperor's right are two noble concubines. In front of the emperor, they show their elegance and nobility, but their eyes reveal contempt inadvertently.

"He Lan, sit next to me." The emperor stretched out his hand and greeted the person who was still in a daze.

He Lancong was startled, and felt hot on his face. He was hesitating whether to sit next to the emperor, but the emperor had already held his hand, pulled him, and sat down directly, almost next to the little emperor.

Taking a deep breath, He Lancong calmed down his emotions, and wanted to move to the side, but the emperor would not let go of his hand.

Over there, Concubine Cao saw everything in her eyes, her round almond eyes almost spewed fire, Concubine Cui saw Concubine Cao was burning with jealousy, she secretly smiled contemptuously, picked up a cherry with slender bare hands, put it in her mouth, and said to her side everything is invisible.

Holding the glazed cup in his hand, the emperor said loudly, "Everyone is here, let's start the banquet. Today is the end of the year, and the monarch and his ministers should have fun and share peace."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" All the officials in the hall raised their glasses together and toasted the emperor.The emperor shook the cup symbolically, but did not actually drink it.

"He Lan, what's the matter with you, isn't the food delicious? But today, I can't make crab roe soup for you alone. I'll use up some of it first. After the dinner is over, I'll order someone to make it." The emperor lowered his voice and tried to comfort him. How could the people around him who refused to move their chopsticks ignore the emperor's face so much in the current situation.

He Lancong lowered his head and smiled slightly, "Did Your Majesty order Bei Cang's concubine to cook alone for a prisoner?"

"You?" The smile on the emperor's face froze for a moment, and he continued to whisper: "He Lan, no matter what, you shouldn't be too presumptuous today."

He Lancong suddenly smiled and replied, "Okay." With a shake of his hand, there was a sound of metal brittleness from the chain on his wrist, and he ignored many curious eyes, picked up a chestnut from the chestnut chicken on the plate in front of him and put it on the table. In the mouth, chew slowly.

The emperor suppressed his anger and asked, "He Lan, did you do it on purpose?"

He Lancong was uncharacteristically, a wicked smile curled up on the corner of his mouth, and said, "How dare you."

The emperor said: "He Lan, stop making trouble. It's the end of the year. Be happy. When the time comes, I will take you to the Gongde Gate to watch the New Year's fireworks."

snort!He Lancong said disdainfully: "Will He Lan bow his head for a firework?"

"..."

Prime Minister Yang Lin, as the head of a hundred officials, is of great status, sitting at the head of the emperor, toasting with the young monarch from time to time.Between cups and cups, the eyes did not leave He Lancong.When he finally saw himself, he was secretly surprised, but he couldn't connect the person in front of him with the military general in front of thousands of troops on the battlefield.There is no trace of killing spirit in this person, and it is unlikely that he has a false name, but how did this person stop Han Chaohui's army in Fancheng?

This is the person King Yi wanted to rescue, but the emperor watched closely, so it was really difficult to do so.

There was an imperceptible sneer in the corner of the emperor's mouth, he looked at Yang Lin, then at He Lancong beside him, and suddenly smiled.The hand that was not holding the cup slowly came down, and gently squeezed He Lancong's waist.

Well!He Lancong's body stiffened immediately, grinding his back molars, and said, "Take your hands away."

The emperor laughed in a low voice, "No."

He Lancong took a deep breath, put down his hand as well, grabbed the emperor's hand, and began to exert force secretly.The emperor laughed in his heart, He Lan, you are no match for the competition.The emperor also mustered all his strength at the moment, trying to break He Lancong's imprisonment.

Although others could not see the small actions of the emperor and He Lancong, but from the expressions on the two people's faces, they could guess a little. Inevitably.At the beginning, Helan Ruyue confuses the first emperor, but now he is replaced by a man, so debauched in public.It's a pity that Donglin's etiquette is strict, but it doesn't seem to be the case.

Concubine Cao cast a disdainful look, cursing inwardly, shameless!

32. This skin is for you...

On the tower of the Gongde Gate, King Beicang and other royal relatives, facing the howling wind, quietly waited for the ringing of the New Year's bell.

He Lancong hid in a small corner of the tower, overlooking the tide of Beicang subjects gathered below the tower. In his eyes, the people of Donglin slowly floated up to Chaoshengmen, the capital of Donglin.The corners of the mouth curled up, and a gentle and elegant smile appeared on his face. He Lancong leaned on the railing, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

An Rong beside him frowned quietly, secretly feeling something was wrong, seeing him smiling so brightly, he murmured badly, stepped forward and grabbed He Lancong's wrist, "My lord, it's dangerous ahead."

He Lancong was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly understood, the smile on his face showed helplessness, "You think I'm going to jump off?"

An Rong lowered his voice, and said: "Young master, forgive me, how can I let the young master make mistakes with this old slave serving by his side."

He Lancong smiled self-deprecatingly, "Don't worry, I won't jump down. In this place, there is my sister who bound me, and my uncle in Donglin's hometown; there are relatives of my deceased wife's Sun family; as for Marquis Zhao Dong, heh, His mother is my aunt after all, and I will not ignore them. Yuan Wenjing can use them to force me to submit, or even force him directly, if I want to be convinced, please tell him not to be delusional." Pointing to his heart, He said: "Here, there are mountains and rivers from the old country of Donglin; there are flowers and trees from the old country; there are relatives and relatives from the old country, but there is no grass or mustard from the old country."

He Lancong didn't want to admit how embarrassed he was, since the day he was captured alive by Yu Hai, he never felt alive with dignity.In the past, the first emperor of Donglin paid great attention to the Helan family, which made the Helan family even more prestigious.Zhao Dong came to the throne, although he was afraid of the power of his relatives, but the Helan family did not form a party for private interests, and did not participate in the government affairs, so the new king took care of him a lot.Although Zhao Dong was confused, but in terms of the real humiliation to He Lancong, it was just the one time he agreed to Bei Cang's peace negotiation conditions. Even if the monarch and his subjects were separated in secret, at least on the surface they were harmonious.

He Lancong knew that at night he was greedy again, knowing that Bei Cang's wine was strong, he still drank two more glasses.Fortunately, he had some control today, at least he didn't drink as much as that night.The messy resignation palace banquet was over, and he wanted to go back to rest, but he was forced to come here by the emperor.Hiding in this unnoticed corner, avoiding the emperor's pretentious posture, avoiding the overt and covert contempt of the two women, avoiding the probing eyes of the Minister of Beicang, hiding in this shadow, and revealing the world See through light and dark.

An Rong sighed secretly, he knew what was in the man's eyes, it was unwillingness, unwillingness to the point of death.He was here once, and saw the former emperor holding Gu Mingzhou's hand, waiting for the New Year's bell and watching the gorgeous fireworks together.Although the person the emperor was supposed to hold was the empress who was the mother of the world, but in those few years, no one said anything to the man standing beside the emperor, even though a man occupied the position that belonged to the empress.And he also saw that in Gu Mingzhou's empty eyes, what was hidden was unwillingness.

Bang, clang... From the bell tower, there was a resounding bell, and the New Year's bell was about to ring one hundred and eight times. It seemed that the whole mainland of China would hear the bell of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.

At the same time, the gorgeous fireworks bloomed in mid-air, filling the sky with splendor and beauty.

Downstairs of the Gongde Gate, thousands of people gathered, shouting long live.

With a smile on his face, the Son of Heaven said to He Lan Ruyue who was beside him: "Twife, I think this year's New Year's fireworks are much more beautiful than previous years."

He Lan Ruyue also showed an elegant smile, and said: "Your Majesty's words are very true. The auspicious snow fell a few days ago, which can alleviate the drought in the north. God has given Bei Cang a bumper harvest year. With such a good omen, the fireworks are more obvious. Gorgeous."

The emperor chuckled, this woman was too smart to say why the fireworks looked different from previous years.

Concubine Cao next to her blinked and said, "I don't think so, it's still the same, nothing new."

The emperor lowered his face and glared at the incomprehensible woman, "If you don't know how to appreciate it, just keep your mouth shut." Turning his head away, he ignored it, but his gentle gaze was fixed on that small corner.At this moment, what is he thinking, is there any difference between the fireworks in Beicang and the fireworks in Donglin?

Concubine Cao glared as if she was warned by the emperor, she couldn't help but feel angry, and she was right, what to do when she got angry, even the emperor can't attack people for no reason.Following the emperor's line of sight, the woman finally understood what the emperor meant.This Donglin person is really shameless, it's nothing more than a woman's seductive look to seduce people, even men have learned to seduce people.

The woman ruthlessly pulled the juanpa in her hand, and she had to ask Grandpa to think of a way. Could it be that this bitch from Zhaohuang Pavilion was allowed to go on like this?

The emperor looked away and found that Concubine Cui was covering her mouth with a handkerchief, and asked with a half smile, "My concubine, what makes you feel so good?"

Concubine Cui laughed and said: "The concubine is counting the flowers in the sky, and the concubine is thinking, the flowers are so gorgeous, but how can I count them?"
