Chapter 105 Main Hall

Xue Shu did not meet Jing Xing's eyes. She only chatted with Xue Chen and the Lu family brothers for a few words, and then followed them into the palace.

From beginning to end, she didn't notice Jing Xing.

It was still early at this time, and everyone was doing as usual. The female relatives went to Fengyi Palace to pay greetings to the Queen, while the men went to the Imperial Study Room, and waited until the time came before heading to the banquet together.

As soon as they arrived at Fengyi Palace and saluted the queen, Xue Shu took Qin Xiang to their usual seat. Immediately, a clever little palace maid came over to serve snacks and tea.

Qin Xiang was still languid and had no energy. She didn't even eat her favorite snacks. She clung to Xue Shu like a boneless body and complained softly in her ear.

"Why do I have to get married? It's not like I don't have money, and I can live without a man, right?" Qin Xiang pouted, "Besides, at worst, I will say that I want to become a monk after the Chinese New Year. The sky is high and the sea is wide outside.

Who can find me?"

Prince?

What happened to the prince?

Even if you want to target her, you have to find her first, right?

The world outside is so big, Qin Xiang is confident that they can't find it!

"Is it because you have been refusing to get married because you have a man you like?" Xue Shu asked as she peeled a sweet and soft chestnut and fed it into Qin Xiang's mouth.

"No way!" Qin Xiang shook his head decisively, "I just think getting married is scary. After getting married, I seem to have to become an adult overnight. I can no longer get tired of being with my best friend.

I can't do whatever I want... In short, this is not the life I want."

Xue Shu was also deeply touched by her words.

So Xue Shu clicked her tongue twice and said with a smile: "What Xiang'er said is right. If I were your mother, I would definitely help you."

"But..." Qin Xiang was mid-sentence when he suddenly realized something was wrong, "Okay, you, you are really bad, you actually took advantage of me!"

While she was talking, she scratched the soft flesh on Xue Shu's waist, which made Xue Shu laugh uncontrollably. Finally, she begged for mercy and said a lot of nice things before Qin Xiang let her go.

Although the two of them are sitting relatively far away, the cousin of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is the focus of everyone's eyes as long as she is here.

The queen looked at the interaction between the two with a smile, and then looked at Xue Lu: "Seeing Shu'er and Xiang'er is like seeing us when we were young."

The empress and Xue Lu were the best friends before they came out of the cabinet. Even after they got married, one was in the harem and the other was in a deep house, but the love between the two was not lost at all.

Mrs. Xue Lu also laughed: "Yes, these two girls... aren't they just like us when we were young?"

When Mrs. Jing Wang, the wife of the Right Prime Minister, heard this, she couldn't sit still: "Aqin, don't I have a good relationship with you?"

Mrs. Xue Lu glanced at her and let out a sigh.

A follower.

Who can have a good relationship with such a smelly girl who follows her behind and makes endless noises all day long?

Now he is also eyeing his only baby daughter...

Xue Lu felt that it was better if she didn't take action.

The Queen also knew something about King Jing's thoughts, so it was expected that Mrs. Xue Lu didn't want to see King Jing.

However, the queen couldn't just watch the ugly scene without doing anything, so she had no choice but to change the subject: "Shu'er is about to get married now, how did you choose?"

Mrs. Xue Lu let out a long sigh and said, "It's not that easy. The Hou Mansion has only selected two young masters. Whether it succeeds in the end depends on Shu'er's own wishes."

The queen nodded slightly and said: "A woman's marriage is a big deal and cannot be taken lightly. Shu'er is young after all, so you have to take good care of her."

"That's natural."

Everyone was chatting in random directions, and soon night fell. The queen got up first, followed closely by everyone, and went to the main hall.

Although His Majesty loves liveliness and often holds banquets in the palace, the main hall is not open often.

It would only be used on serious occasions, such as when welcoming a border guard general back to Beijing or welcoming a foreign envoy.

The main hall is magnificently built, with eight golden nanmu dragon pillars that can be hugged by five people supporting a huge dome. The floor is made of the finest black jade, which has been polished by the palace people so that it seems that the silhouette of a person can be clearly reflected. One of the

Everything on display was made of gold. When the candlelight flickered, the brilliance of gold even dazzled people.

The queen led many female relatives to sit down at the table, and Qin Xiang had no choice but to reluctantly separate from Xue Shu and return to the seat of the Minister of Civil Affairs to sit down.

After a while, the emperor came with all his officials.

The female relatives stood up and saluted one after another, and then sat down with them.

Xue Yue looked at Xue Lu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and suddenly became excited.

After all, as the saying goes, a break is better than a wedding.

Even though the relationship between the two is not as good as before, but they haven't seen each other for a long time, and I don't know if it's a psychological factor or something else. Xue Yue just feels that Xue Lu is a different person, and she has become particularly radiant.

Just like when they first met.

Xue Yuezheng sighed inwardly, but Xue Lu showed disgust and even moved to the side.

If she wasn't afraid that the scene would be too ugly, she would never want to sit with Xue Yue.

unlucky!

On the high platform, the emperor stood up and delivered a speech.

The emperor didn't like long speeches. He only said a few simple words and then raised his glass to announce the opening of the banquet. He never mentioned the so-called "big events".

Dancers in red costumes poured in from outside like flowing clouds, dancing to the sound of music in the middle of the spacious hall.

Xue Shu had just eaten something in Fengyi Palace and was not hungry at the moment, so she raised her head and looked around the main hall first.

When her eyes fell on Prince Xiaoyao, she was slightly surprised.

On this occasion, Prince Xiaoyao even brought Chu Chu.

Just now, she didn't see Chu Chu in Fengyi Palace.

These two people really take an unusual path...

Xue Shu shook her head. Although she was a little curious about how Prince Xiaoyao brought people in, she suddenly felt a chill before she had time to think about it.

As if being stared at by a wild and untameable beast, the hairs on her body almost stood on end.

Xue Shu was a little confused and looked around the hall again before meeting Jing Xing's eyes.

As a result, Xue Shu became even more confused.

Why do you think this person is... so angry?

What happened?

Or who offended him?

Where does it come from so much popularity?

Before Xue Shu could figure out the reason, Jing Xing tilted his head at her, then stood up and left.

Xue Shu said "Ah" and looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she got up and followed her.

The more singing and dancing there is inside the hall, the more deserted it seems outside.

Xue Shu folded her heavy cloak and as soon as she went out, she saw Jing Xing standing not far away with his hands behind his back.

Sensing someone approaching, Jing Xing also turned his head. Seeing that she was coming, without saying a word, he stepped forward, grabbed her wrist, and took her to a corner where no one else would notice.

"I bring you food, and you bring me money?" Although Jing Xing smiled, the fool also knew that he was very angry now, "What do you think Shu'er thinks of me?"

Coming, coming!

For the sake of me updating even though I have a fever, do you guys vote for me to feed it (looking forward to it.jpg)
