"But in my opinion, that Xiao Ningfeng has clearly been in contact with the old prince. Didn't you hear what he kept saying about Xiao Ningfeng?" Concubine Hui solved the topic again.
Yan Xiaoyu felt curious about the legendary gossip... She approached the two beautiful concubines and lowered her voice, "Is the Crown Prince really in poor health? Look at this situation, he doesn't even show up!"
Concubine Hui glanced at her with disdain and said mockingly, "The Crown Princess is from Dong Chu, of course she doesn't know. The old prince is Han by nature, and his ancestors gave him the national surname, which is Xiao. His descendants are all surnamed Xiao Han, and the seven counties
The master's name is Xiao Hanjing, and the prince's name is Xiao Hanze..."
Before she could finish her words, Wei Yifang, who was sitting there, cast a warning look to stop her. Concubine Hui lowered her head to drink tea, while Yan Xiaoyu grabbed a candied fruit and ate it out of boredom.
"The banquet is about to start, and now you are eating these messy things again!" I don't know when, Xiao Ninglan came over and pushed away the candied fruits in front of Yan Xiaoyu. Several people stood up at the same time and bowed to Xiao Ninglan.
, Xiao Ninglan said "hmm".
Yan Xiaoyu was about to sit down when she was pulled up by Xiao Ninglan. He said calmly, "Sit over here with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Concubine Hui cast a jealous look at her, but Wei Yifang remained calm.
Yan Xiaoyu poked his arm, "There are all male guests over there, it's not suitable for me to sit there..."
"It doesn't matter, you will be where I am." Xiao Ninglan grabbed her wrist and refused to let go, and walked towards the male banquet area in a few steps.
Yan Xiaoyu didn't understand his thoughts for a moment. Even if he was taking her, he was taking the queen. He just dragged her to attend the banquet of important ministers, and he wasn't afraid of others calling him a fool?
When she was sitting down, she saw the man sitting in the wheelchair on the upper right, and was shocked. Yun Ziyou? No, he is not Yun Ziyou. Yun Ziyou does not have such an aloof temperament. He is just
A man who looks exactly like Yun Ziyou.
Is there really someone like this in the world? Yan Xiaoyu froze there, but Xiao Ninglan pinched her hand hard. She came to her senses, and Xiao Ninglan gritted her teeth.
She sat down next to him, and the minister next to her called her "Mother, Thousand Years Old." She returned the greeting with a pale face, but her eyes always fell on the man in white in the wheelchair.
"Han Ze, you propose a toast to the emperor and the empress, and tell them never to touch anyone from Prince Rui's palace..." The old emperor patted the shoulder of the man in white next to him and said seriously.
Xiao Ninglan sneered, but Yan Xiaoyu felt uncomfortable all over. Xiao Hanze smiled helplessly, picked up the wine glass, and said to Xiao Ninglan, "Your Majesty, grandpa is old, you must not argue with him!"
Xiao Ninglan smiled mockingly and glanced at Yan Xiaoyu. He patted Yan Xiaoyu's hand and said, "My dear concubine, look at how gentle and respectful the prince is. You must learn from him in the future."
In one sentence, he mocked Xiao Hanze for looking like a woman and reminded Yan Xiaoyu that this person was definitely not the arrogant and eccentric Yun Ziyou. Yan Xiaoyu's face changed slightly and she smiled apologetically at Xiao Hanze.
How could Xiao Hanze not hear Xiao Ninglan's sarcasm? His face turned red and he put down his wine glass.
"Ning Lan, it's your birthday today, why don't you just stay in the palace and don't leave?" The old prince spoke again, his round belly like an inflated balloon.
Xiao Ninglan frowned again, and Yan Xiaoyu secretly looked at Xiao Hanze on the lower right. He sighed softly and reminded in a low voice, "Grandpa, today is your birthday."
"Ah? It's my birthday? Can I have candy?" The old prince jumped up excitedly, biting his fingers and looking at Xiao Hanze.
Xiao Hanze nodded helplessly and looked at Xiao Ninglan with his beautiful eyes. Before he could speak, Xiao Ninglan smiled and said, "Prince, please rest assured, I will definitely destroy Prince Rui's Mansion tonight!"
Yan Xiaoyu seemed to see a trace of helplessness on Xiao Hanze's face, but for a moment, he raised his clear eyes, nodded and said, "Wei Chen obeys!"
Yan Xiaoyu didn't understand, okay, why she wanted to stay one night in Prince Rui's Mansion. She glanced at Xiao Hanze with some uneasiness, but her wrist was held tightly by Xiao Ninglan. She frowned and looked away, burying her head in silence.
meal.
night.
Prince Rui's Mansion.
Xiao Ninglan walked out of her room to find Wei Yifang, and Yan Xiaoyu also left. She wanted to find Xiao Hanze, and she had to ask clearly what his relationship was with Yun Ziyou, or that she was Yun Ziyou.
.
In Xiao Hanze's room, the servants were helping him take a bath. His wheelchair was placed aside. The cold moonlight hit his smooth skin, as smooth as silk. No wonder Xiao Ninglan mocked herself for being a woman. Xiao Hanze looked at herself.
skin, laughing at myself.
Suddenly, he felt a peeping gaze outside the window. He pursed his moderately thick lips tightly. He picked up a handful of water, and when he poured it onto his shoulder, he flicked his wrist and the water rushed out of the window.
The window was wet, and Yan Xiaoyu screamed, her face already covered with water drops. The servant opened the door, and she stood at the door. Xiao Hanze looked at her sternly, frowning.
Yan Xiaoyu wanted to explain, but didn't know how to say it. It was unreasonable for an emperor's concubine to peek at others taking a bath. But when her eyes fell on the hideous scar on Xiao Hanze's chest, she was stunned.
live.
"Yun Ziyou..." Yan Xiaoyu pushed aside the servant next to her and rushed into the room with bright eyes.
Xiao Hanze obviously didn't expect her to be so bold. A look of surprise flashed across his fair and handsome face. He drew a gust of wind in his palm, and the clothes on the screen suddenly flew into his hands, and he spun around and put the clothes on his body.
, he stood up, his body still dripping with water under his clothes, he cupped his fists towards Yan Xiaoyu and said, "Mother, I'm afraid you have recognized the wrong person."
Yan Xiaoyu shook her head and stepped forward to pull open his clothes to check the scars on his chest, but Xiao Hanze quickly pushed him away. His face turned red and he said sarcastically, "My dear, please respect yourself."
Yan Xiaoyu looked at him blankly, and Xiao Ninglan's cold voice came from behind, "My dear concubine, who did you mistake the prince for?"
Yan Xiaoyu came back to her senses and looked back at Xiao Ninglan. Xiao Ninglan had a sneer in his eyes. As if he was declaring his ownership, he put his arms around Yan Xiaoyu's shoulders and said lightly, "Your Majesty, I'm so rude. This is the first time I've met you.
