Chapter 40: The Family Banquet

"Haha, Emperor brother, you are finally willing to take the princess out of the palace. I thought you wanted to hide it for the rest of your life." Seeing that the two of them finally arrived late, the emperor smiled and laughed.

Shangguan Ye hugged the person in his arms tightly and said seriously, "If possible, I really want to hide him forever, for the rest of my life."

That serious tone made Murong Qiufeng slightly stunned, and his eyebrows subconsciously wrinkled.

However, other people don't know what happened between them, so naturally they don't find it weird.

"Haha, it seems that Jun'er is living a happy life, so as my aunt, I can rest assured. Jun'er, come and talk to my aunt." The queen looked pleased and said kindly next to her.

Shangguan Ye was unmoved and said with a serious smile, "Sister-in-law, the princess's throat is a little uncomfortable. It's not appropriate to talk too much. Let's talk about old times another day."

"Haha, it seems that the past three days have been really short for the emperor, but you have to be appropriate, know how to show mercy, and don't tire out the princess. I see that the princess is not in good spirits, so the emperor needs to take good care of her.

"The emperor raised his eyebrows ambiguously, and looked at Murong Qiufeng who kept his eyes down and said nothing with his peach blossom eyes. He seemed to be indeed a little weak.

He had also seen Murong Qiuyun many times, but never once was he so attractive as when he saw him today. He was calm and serene, with a pale face, a tired look, and elegant clothes. He looked more delicate and beautiful, elegant and natural.

His charming style is really different from the lively and willful look before, as if he has grown up a lot overnight.

This made the emperor feel a little itchy and regretful, but at this moment, the memory of Murong Qiufeng who had not had a chance to take a serious look at the palace banquet that day suddenly appeared in his mind. He felt that the two people were surprisingly similar, not only in appearance, but also in temperament.

There are also some similarities.

When he thought of Murong Qiufeng, the emperor's mood inevitably became a little more gloomy. He remembered Shangguan Ye's memorial, which placed Murong Qiufeng under his command. Murong Qiuyun was taken over, and so was Murong Qiufeng.

This inevitably made him feel a little unbalanced, but for Shangguan Ye, who still needed to rely on him at this moment, he couldn't refuse his request.

Murong Qiufeng naturally knew the meaning of their conversation, and his white neck turned red. A hint of embarrassment rose in his eyes, but he could only grit his teeth and remain silent. Since Shangguan Ye had made an excuse for him, he might as well just let it go.

I'm not going to speak anymore.

However, they did not stay long. After chatting for a few words, Shangguan Ye once again excused the princess to rest and left with Murong Qiufeng.

However, he really wanted to let Murong Qiufeng return to the palace to rest. The toil during the day was enough to make him tired, not to mention the family banquet in the evening.

Perhaps because of what Shangguan Ye said before, Murong Qiufeng seemed to be avoiding him and letting him rest. He also lay down obediently and closed his eyes to rest.

Shangguan Ye sighed, walked outside the hall, turned his head and looked inside the hall, suddenly took out the black jade Xiao, put it to his lips, and played it gently, and a gentle and soothing song began to play.

.

Murong Qiufeng inside heard the sound of Xiao, and his eyes moved slightly, but he did not open them, but his lips tightened a little, his eyebrows wrinkled, and his eyelashes kept fluttering, until he really fell asleep peacefully.

At the end of the song, Shangguan Ye turned around and was slightly absent-minded. His slightly narrowed eyes were full of emotions. He recalled every detail of getting along with Murong Qiufeng and the structure of the future. He unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth and his eyes were so soft.

Even though he was drowning, he didn't realize that his expression at the moment was so gentle and yet... stupid.

There was a thump.

Shangguan Ye frowned slightly, and his expression changed instantly. If it was spring in March just now and the flowers were blooming, then now it is freezing cold.

"poison."

"Master, forgive me." Youxiang hurriedly knelt down. She was really frightened by the expression on her master's face, so she was temporarily distracted and did such a rude thing. But compared to this, she still did not forget that.

The shocking scene made her feel more terrifying than killing her. It was unbelievable. Was that really their pavilion master? Such an expression would actually appear on the face of the ruthless Shura's god of death.

After following the pavilion master for ten years, she had never thought that her master was also a person with feelings.

She originally thought that the pavilion master was interested in that man, but it was the same as before, and at most he had more fun than those people before. But now it seems that is not necessarily the case. What she saw today has completely subverted her seriousness.

The careful escort, the look of pity, and the fact that she took care of and cared for him with her own hands, her movements were so careful, and her expression was so gentle, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed it even to death.

"Poison, today's matter has been revealed, but just this time, take care of yourself. If you make any arbitrary decisions again, you should know the consequences." Shangguan Ye's voice was a little low, but it was different from usual low, but with a hint of emotion.

With a hint of murderous intent.

Youxiang's body trembled slightly, her neck felt cold, and her expression was serious, "Yes."

Proper rest still has a certain effect. At least at night, when Murong Qiufeng was woken up, his energy seemed much better than before, and his face had a little more color.

Shangguan Ye asked him to get up at some point, so when the two of them arrived, the people inside had been waiting for a long time.

The so-called family banquet was actually just a banquet for members of the royal family. In addition to the emperor and Shangguan Ye, those present were some princes, princesses, concubines, and the concubines’ family members.

There were three women in one drama, so the banquet hall was very lively. Even Shangguan Ye and the others didn't have to be silent when they came. On the contrary, it was even more lively, especially the concubines, many of whom showed their full efforts to build relationships.

Some are for themselves, some are for their children, and some are for the family. Most of those relatives are women. The princess is occupied, but there is still the position of concubine. Even if she cannot be a concubine, it is not a big deal to be the concubine of King Ye.

Climbed a high branch.

Murong Qiufeng's expression had always been indifferent and she was no longer as active as usual, which made some women think that she had some disagreement with King Ye or was being left out, so she worked even harder.

Shangguan Ye did not stick to Murong Qiufeng like a conjoined twin like he did during the day. It was not that he was playing any tricks, but it was rare that Murong Qiufeng was in better spirits, and he did not want to make him feel bad again for the time being.

In his spare time, he continued to deal with those Yingying Yanyan seriously, mainly because he wanted to see Murong Qiufeng's reaction. Although he knew that this approach was a bit childish, he just couldn't help but wanted to see it, but what made him regretful was that

, Murong Qiufeng was indifferent from the beginning to the end, with a distant but seemingly friendly smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he didn't care about anything and just regarded everything as watching a show.

But how could he know how bad and depressed Murong Qiufeng was at the moment? Shangguan Ye's sudden cold attitude had made him feel very depressed, and now, it made him feel even more depressed and irritable.
