311 The Darkness Couldn't Hide Life and Death Penglai Chapter 11
The palace banquet extended from the inside to the outside of the palace. Large red lanterns were lit up and down in two rows, illuminating the entire Tianxi Palace. The aroma of wine overflowed, and singing and dancing filled the ears.
Hua Jinglan and Chun Yuyan sat under Loulan Erxue's left hand. After the first round of toasts, Loulan Erxue said: "Jinglan, Qiao Aiqing and Qu Aiqing are the best in this palace examination."
When Hua Jinglan turned her gaze away, Qiao Fu and Qu Xian both raised their glasses to propose a toast. Hua Jinglan nodded and toasted, and said with a smile: "You two are indeed outstanding."
Qiao Fu and Qu Xian thanked each other before sitting down, but they were struck by the deep meaning in her smile.
Loulan Erxue heard this and asked with interest: "Have Lan'er met the two beloved ladies?"
"We met at the racecourse today." Hua Jinglan stood up and replied, "There are many talented people in Loulan country."
Loulan Erxue laughed, beckoned the palace servants to bring a jar of wine to her, and said, "I heard that you love wine. This aged Jiu Yingchun has been sealed in the warehouse for many years, so I will give it to you today.
"
Hua Jinglan felt blessed and said, "Thank you very much, aunt."
Loulan Erxue was very happy today, so she drank a few more drinks. Halfway through the banquet, she couldn't hold it in anymore and left. She left, but the officials didn't dare to leave. Looking at Hua Jinglan, the meat and potatoes, they all wanted to come forward.
To test the odds, one by one came over to propose a toast.
Chunyu Yan poured water into the wine jar one part at a time, and watched with a smile as Hua Jinglan knocked down the civil servants and generals. When he saw that the time was almost up, he said: "Everyone, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is very drunk."
"I'd like to help the Crown Prince enter the palace to rest." Qin Fu quickly summoned the palace servants. If Hua Jinglan didn't pretend to be drunk, these hundreds of people would have to leave.
In the late night and cool night, Chunyu Yanping retreated from the accompanying palace attendants and walked slowly under the shadow of the rockery trees with Hua Jinglan supporting each other.
Hua Jinglan held his arm and put her head on his shoulder, looking sideways at the stars in the sky. The two of them snuggled together quietly, no one wanted to break the tranquility.
"The prince and my husband are really in love." The woman's sweet laughter suddenly came from behind the tree. Hua Jinglan immediately frowned. She didn't notice this person's aura!
Separating from Chun Yuyan, Hua Jinglan looked coldly at the woman in front of her with sloping clothes, her white shoulders exposed.
When I walked in and took a look, I realized that the woman was barefoot, with a red ribbon tied around her ankle, and she was walking very seductively. The woman's appearance was also slightly charming, with upturned eyes and a pair of medium-sized fox eyes.
Very seductive.
Judging from her behavior, she must not be a dancer in the palace.
The woman did not pay homage to Hua Jinglan, but walked sideways to Chun Yuyan, and the subtle fragrance of her sleeves swept across his cheek, and whispered softly: "King Xiaoyao is really suave..." She raised her eyebrows as she spoke,
Looking at Hua Jinglan, "It's no wonder that our prince also fell into your arms."
Chun Yuyan lifted her sleeves and pushed them out, patted her shoulders and said, "Girl, please respect yourself."
The woman was stunned for a moment, then covered her lips and smiled softly, "King Xiaoyao has never tried, how do you know I am a girl?"
Hua Jinglan was speechless. Even in the 21st century with open folk customs, no one would be so blatant and use such obscene words to tease men, right? Is this woman from the 22nd generation?
Chunyu Yan raised her eyebrows and replied: "The girls in the hook bar are also called girls, and the girls who have not left the palace are also called girls. How can the girls know which one I am talking about?"
Hua Jinglan was even more surprised than the woman. She didn't realize that Chun Yuyan could speak so well!
The woman was not annoyed, but she lightly circled Hua Jinglan's arm, raised her little face and said, "Your Highness, King Xiaoyao takes such good care of you, it's really the envy of carved jade."
Hua Jinglan raised her hand and touched the corners of her eyes. When she saw the thick rouge, she said with a hint of disgust: "Don't put on so many things at such a young age."
The woman named Diaoyu stared blankly at her as she pushed her hand away, anger flashed across her brows, and she blocked her path: "I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince has been to Baihua Valley!"
Hua Jinglan stopped and turned around to look at her. Baihua Valley, if she was a light beast, it would make sense that he would not be able to detect her aura.
"What does His Highness the Crown Prince think of Beauty of the Hundred Flowers?" Diao Yu saw her stop and continued to ask.
"The orchids in the empty valley each have their own fragrance." Hua Jinglan said.
Diaoyu smiled and said, "The prince thinks it's beautiful?"
Hua Jinglan nodded.
"Since the beauties of hundreds of flowers are also beautiful in the eyes of His Highness the Crown Prince, and Diaoyu is the first among the beauties of flowers, why can't he attract the attention of the Crown Prince?" Diaoyu's eyes looked directly at hers, and she didn't know why.
The posture of giving up.
"Carved Jade believes that the beauty of a woman is not only to make men fall in love, but also to impress women. Although His Highness the Crown Prince is beautiful, Carved Jade is not inferior to His Highness. Carved Jade is so intimidating to His Highness the Crown Prince's heroism, why does the Prince turn a blind eye to Carved Jade?"
This is still a master whose heart is as high as the sky. Hua Jinglan couldn't help but chuckle, pointed at Chun Yuyan behind her and said: "As you said, you must first make the man fall in love. Why don't you ask him why he doesn't fall in love?"
But Diao Yu smiled seductively, "A woman looks at a man by his eyes. How could His Highness know that King Xiaoyao is not enamored of Diao Yu?"
This is said with full confidence.
Hua Jinglan looked at Chunyu Yan seriously for a while and then said: "Little girl, be good, go home and ask for some sweets. Sister, we don't have any here."
After saying that, he pulled Chun Yuyan to leave, but Diao Yu strode after him and said unwillingly: "Why doesn't His Highness the Prince let King Xiaoyao admit it himself?"
Hua Jinglan's eyebrows jumped, and he kicked the person into the lotus pond with a sweep of one foot. Diaoyu drank two mouthfuls of water before grabbing the lotus leaf. He was shocked but also a little angry, and stared at Hua Jinglan with his beautiful eyes wide open.
Hua Jinglan shook her head, turned around and gave Chun Yuyan a bright smile, "Ms. sir, let's go back to the bedroom."
"Baihua Valley and Baihua Beauty have a close relationship with the Loulan family. Her ability to be so unbridled in the palace must have been tacitly approved by your aunt." Chun Yuyan lowered his eyes and looked at her.
"A spoiled girl who has been spoiled by her family should just behave herself." Hua Jinglan disagreed, "All the women in Baihua Valley are respectful and virtuous, but none of them are like her, so having too much honor may not be a good thing.
