Chapter 237
The paintings that the emperor asked to watch, let alone good ones, were not good, and all the officials praised them.
Looking at Princess Xiangyu, everyone was somewhat sympathetic. It's a pity that there is such a talented and talented person.
"Xiangyu is more caring than I am. She has prepared for the emperor's birthday gift early on. Apart from this painting, there are..."
The emperor spoke on his own, with a smile on his face, like a brother showing off his younger sister.
The Taishang Emperor's eyes were moist, and he looked very moved.
Li Yi closed his eyes, he lost his appetite for today's meal.
Princess Xiangyu was the only one present in the audience. From the beginning to the end, she was expressionless. Whatever you say, we are not in the same world, so we can't hear it.
"Look at me, I forgot the time again."
After talking for a long time, the emperor tapped his head and told the eunuch to put away the painting, his eyes revealed the sentimentality that a blind man could feel.
"Feast!"
Following the emperor's order, the maids came in one by one carrying dishes.
There was also singing and dancing.
Produced by the royal family, well, it is of a higher grade than what Song Cao showed him.
Just when everyone was immersed in it, a eunuch hurriedly walked up to the emperor and whispered in the ear. The smile on the emperor's face disappeared instantly. He slammed the table and stood up.
All the dancing girls knelt down on the ground in fright.
All the officials looked at each other, but they didn't know what happened.
For a while, the hall was silent.
The Supreme Emperor frowned, "Emperor, why are you so angry?"
"Go back."
The emperor waved the dancing girl away, and then looked at the officials, "All the ministers should go back too."
"I'm waiting to retire."
The emperor issued an order to expel the guests, and they would not be greedy for the food on the table. After half a quarter of an hour, all the ministers in the palace were scattered.
My heart is full of guesses, what happened outside that caused the emperor to have such a big reaction.
"Father, all the people you sent have been sent back, and the envoys of Daqian are outside the hall." The emperor's voice was condensed, "I said it was a congratulatory gift for you, and I asked you to receive it in person."
The Supreme Emperor's face darkened, "How courageous!"
"I need to tell me this too? Just kill him."
"I'm afraid it won't work." The emperor shook his head, "A large army of [-] troops has joined forces with Rongguo to press down on Fengdu Ridge. I'm afraid they are waiting for us to give us a reason to fight."
"They really dare." The Taishang Huang narrowed his eyes, and the killing intent surged.
After the Rong country suffered heavy losses, it was no longer a concern, but they still have gunpowder, and if they want to smash the cans, they will hurt both sides. In the end, they don't know who is cheaper.
It's really not a wise move to start a war.
The Supreme Emperor overturned the table and left with a shake of his sleeves.
"Brother Zhao, do you think the Supreme Emperor of the Chu Kingdom will come to receive the birthday gift? We have worked hard to send people back to him, and everyone is still angry."
At the gate of the palace, in front of the prison cart, four guards smiled and looked at the Xiangwu guards surrounding them, and one of them spoke out.
"Whether he gets it or not, let's just follow the mission, anyway, it's not ashamed of us." Another guard answered and spit.
"I can't stop shouting, Yao Zi, it's your turn to catch up."
"Along the way, I didn't lose your meat. How could it be so empty?"
Yaozi, who was called Yaozi, looked contemptuously at his companion, took a deep breath, and said, "I would like to congratulate the Supreme Emperor of Chu on his birthday, and I would like to present a birthday present. You are despicable and shameless, but we are kind, and everyone sent it back to you. "
"No need to thank you, the master said, feel free to use any tricks you have." "We will give you this birthday gift every year!"
People are surrounded by Xiangwu guards, but the sound can't be blocked, especially these middle-aged people, the sound is like a bell, and people can't pretend they can't hear it.
Li Yi and the others who came out of the palace gate had wonderful expressions when they heard these words.
Dagan is really daring!
Is this going to war?
While thinking, Baiguan played the role of a deaf man, and walked forward without the slightest pause, as if he was going to court normally.
"In recent days, you should enter the palace less, and be more careful in everything, and don't cause trouble." On the carriage, Father Sheng reminded Li Yi.
"Yes, father-in-law." Li Yi nodded solemnly.
After returning home with Yunniang, Li Yi asked Huanji to investigate the situation. It was only two days after the imperial army arrived, and now, they can't be counted on to build their own intelligence network.
"It's really to blame."
Li Yi removes the headgear for Yunniang, and works on important occasions. Although he also needs to wear court clothes to show his respect for the royal family, it is really not as heavy as Chu State, and it is relatively light and simple.
"Miss, in the history of Chu State, is there any woman who was crushed to death by court dress and crown because of the mighty grace of the emperor?"
"You, you think women are too fragile."
"Even if they get dizzy, they will just faint at home and lose their bearings in front of the palace. Such disrespect will exhaust the official career of father, brother and husband." Yun Niang said casually.
After changing her clothes, she leaned into Li Yi's arms, "Do you want to go to war after doing this?"
"Shouldn't be, with Taifu's actions, he wouldn't declare war in such a high-profile manner."
After stroking Fu Yunniang's blue hair, Li Yi raised his eyes, "Who is the one who should be angry, Xu wants to spit blood out of anger."
"It's fine if you can die of anger, and you can save yourself a day and a whole day."
"The Supreme Emperor has already thought about Zhou Taifu, after this incident, I am afraid that he will not let it go." Yun Niang whispered.
"Zhou Renshi, that was not a fuel-efficient lamp. He must have a plan to do this. Instead of worrying about him, you might as well worry about me." Li Yiyang smiled.
"That's true." Yunniang nodded in agreement.
"Isn't the dance in the main hall pretty?"
Unexpectedly, Yunniang's topic would change so quickly, Li Yi nodded subconsciously, stopped the car hurriedly, coughed, and pretended to be casual, "It looks good, it's very ordinary."
Yun Niang laughed out loud, "Is it that domineering?"
"The lady is the most gentle." Li Yi grinned.
"I really can't believe a word. Around us, you are the most serious. I am worried that you will drool."
Li Yi raised his head and smiled, "I appreciate art, and I can't live up to other people's achievements. I have practiced countless times before I can perform in front of the palace."
"I didn't realize that you are still such an elegant person." Yun Niang looked at him with a half-smile.
"My lady found out that it is always difficult for a different individual to blend into the world, so I had no choice but to follow the waves and cover myself up. The pain in it is hard for outsiders to know." Li Yi sighed.
Seeing Yunniang's slightly narrowed eyes, Li Yi smiled shyly, not daring to pretend anymore.
Burying his head into Yuniang's neck, Li Yi rubbed his hands and said, "Miss, dance a song? It's a long night, I can't sleep alone, and I can't be accompanied by anyone, so at least let this dance partner fall asleep."
"I really can't do anything with you, what dance do you want to see?"
Yun Niang got up from Li Yi and looked at him with a soft smile.
"At once……"
"Uncle, Huanji is back."
Li Yi was interrupted by the maid's words, and Li Yi smiled helplessly.
"Don't look bad when you look back." He pulled Yun Niang into a hug, and Li Yi kissed her before going out.
