Chapter 597 I will take good care of you for the rest of my life
Shangguan Ruoli raised the corner of his lips with a cold arc and walked into the palace.
Seeing that it was still early, she didn't want to go to the main hall so early to chat with those people, so she decided to go to Concubine De to talk about Bai Qingqing.
Walking to the original lake, it has been filled in and is now a rockery garden. Because of the cold weather, the trees have not been planted yet. Several rockeries and pavilions also show signs of being recently repaired.
Shangguan Ruoli walked past the rockery and narrowed his eyes slightly.
There is someone behind the rockery!
Sure enough, suddenly, a young man in rich clothes jumped out from behind the rockery and blocked Shangguan Ruoli's way.
Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows, "It's so cold, why were you in the rockery?"
The fifth prince, Dongming Zijin, looked sad and said very solemnly: "Sister-in-law of the eldest emperor, brother eldest emperor, how is he?"
After this year, he was already fourteen years old, and he had grown a lot taller. He was over 1.8 meters tall. Standing there, he looked quite imposing.
"He...sigh!" What did Shangguan Ruoli say?
He could only sigh with pretense of sadness, then lowered his eyes and let the fifth prince figure it out on his own.
The fifth prince's face turned pale, and he swayed. There were tears in his beautiful phoenix eyes. He looked up at the sky, blinked his eyes quickly a few times, and swallowed his tears.
Shangguan Ruoli also blinked twice to hide the cunning in his eyes.
The Fifth Prince sniffed and comforted in a hoarse voice: "Don't worry, Sister-in-law of the First Emperor. Brother, the First Emperor's auspicious person and heavenly minister, everything will be fine! What if... there is me too, I will take good care of you for the rest of my life!"
Shangguan Ruoli's eyebrows twitched, why did these words sound so awkward?
Just as he was about to explain a few words, he heard the sound of footsteps.
He said hurriedly: "Someone is coming, I'll leave first."
The fifth prince is also a handsome young man, and the two of them were kidnapped together. If someone saw the two of them meeting in private, it would be either good or bad.
The fifth prince clasped his fists and said, "Sister-in-law, please excuse me. I will go and pay my respects to my father first."
After that, he turned around the rockery and walked towards the Qiankun Hall.
Shangguan Ruoli continued walking towards the harem. Just after passing the moon gate of the harem, he saw Concubine Rou, Concubine De, Concubine Shu, Concubine Xian and several concubines, surrounded by eunuchs and maids.
There are only a few high-grade concubines who are eligible to participate in the palace banquet.
Concubine Rou said in a soft voice: "Hey~, what a coincidence. Does Princess Xuan want to go to the harem?"
Shangguan Ruoli blessed several concubines and said, "Wish you all good luck and good health!"
Concubine De smiled and said: "The banquet is about to begin, will Princess Xuan go with us?"
"Okay, I just came a little early. I just wanted to walk around the palace. The snow scene is also very beautiful." Shangguan Ruoli said, making way for a few concubines to go ahead.
Concubine Rou looked at a series of big footprints in the snow, came out from behind the rockery, and then went to the direction of the front hall.
She kept it secret and said: "It seems that there are quite a lot of people coming out to enjoy the snow scenery."
Everyone followed her gaze and looked at her with obscure eyes. It seemed that the footprints were fresh and that they were the footprints of a man.
Shangguan Ruoli knew that she was looking for trouble, so he smiled lightly and said, "That's true."
Concubine Shu said: "Let's go quickly. The snow is quite heavy. If it lasts for a long time, I'm afraid my clothes will get wet and we will be in a mess."
Everyone's palace attire is long skirts that stretch to the floor. Although there are palace maids holding up the skirts at the back, their feet cannot be exposed, and it is inevitable that they will not get caught in the falling snow.
There were a lot of people here today, and they didn't want to be embarrassed in front of the ministers and women, so they complained about the snowy weather and walked towards the Qiankun Hall where the banquet was being held.
Concubine De held the little eunuch's hand and asked with concern: "I heard that King Xuan was seriously injured when he was attacked by an assassin. Can you please ask Dr. Xia for treatment?"
Shangguan Ruoli gave her a reassuring look and said: "This time we brought a doctor back from Mo Town on the border. She has very good medical skills and is known as a miracle doctor. I believe she will cure the prince."
Some people in the capital must have known that they brought Bai Qingqing's family back, and there is nothing to hide.
Concubine De understood and nodded, "That's good."
Concubine Rou said softly: "Is there any good doctor in Mozhen? It's better to ask Dr. Xia to take a look at King Xuan. If it is delayed, the condition will not get better. Didn't Dr. Xia cure King Xuan's hidden illness?"
Shangguan Ruoli said lukewarmly: "Of course Dr. Xia's medical skills are good, but the main reason for the prince's hidden illness is the elixir found in Linzhou, otherwise it wouldn't have dragged on for so many years."
Concubine Shu said: "That's true."
Concubine Rou's eyes turned cold, and there was an undetectable hint of ridicule at the corners of her lips.
Now it seems that two of the four highest-ranking concubines in the palace are on King Xuan's side, and there is also a virtuous concubine who is still watching.
Concubine De is Zheng Shuyue's aunt. She has only one princess, and the Dingguo family is also in decline, so there is nothing to worry about.
The most annoying thing is Concubine Shu. She has two sons, which is rare in the palace. Besides, the fifth prince is already fourteen years old. He has been very motivated recently, earned a lot of money, and paid a lot of filial piety to the emperor.
The emperor was so happy that he was so happy.
Humph! So what? He’s just a little kid who likes to do business.
After tonight, King Qin made great achievements, mother and son gained power, and there was time to deal with them.
Shangguan Ruoli could see Concubine Rou's determination to win from her back, and he and Concubine De exchanged a look that only they could understand.
Concubine Shu looked carefully at the road under her feet, her long eyelashes hiding the glare in her eyes.
When they arrived at the Qiankun Hall, after the eunuch at the door sang the song, everyone entered the hall and everyone in the hall stood up and saluted.
Shangguan Ruoli's eyes swept across the hall unintentionally, and his eyes fell on a young man who was as gentle as jade and had a good appearance.
Fengjinxing!
Why did he come to the palace banquet?
Didn’t the Feng family never participate in government affairs?
However, with the First Master Feng colluding with Prince Li, it is not surprising that Feng Jinxing, the third Young Master who is famous in Canglan Continent, appears here.
The good-looking young man next to him with a sinister face should be the eldest son of the Feng family.
Although he is not bad looking, he is far from Feng Jinxing, especially his sinister aura, which hurts him a lot. How can he compare with Feng Jinxing, who is as gentle as jade?
Feng Jinxing stood among the crowd in gorgeous clothes, but it was as if he were standing in the mountains and rivers, calm and contented, without any flashiness.
If we want to use a flower as a metaphor, then Feng Jin Xing is a lotus, with noble character and unparalleled elegance.
The gentleman's face is as beautiful as jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world!
The brilliance of Feng Jinxing attracted everyone's attention, especially the women. Those little girls with poor concentration almost had their eyes bulging out, their faces turned red, and they were extremely shy.
Feng Jinxing immediately felt a different gaze in these fiery gazes. He followed the gaze and bumped into Shangguan Ruoli's gaze.
