Charm King Poison Queen

  Chapter 1099 Teaming up with Sikong to tear off the candle dragon (8)

  Princess Deqing peeled an orange and gave it to the imperial concubine, who smiled softly.

   Seeing the harmony between his wife and daughter, the emperor nodded slightly.

  Ning Yue, Rong Qing, and Rong Lin stepped forward and presented a congratulatory gift to Princess Deqing, which was a white jade chessboard and chess pieces. This kind of white jade can change color according to the surrounding temperature. It is mostly light purple in summer, white in winter, and has a hint of light pink in April.

   This gift has a meaning, it is to remind Deqing that she has been used as a pawn, but Princess Deqing is in high spirits, and she doesn't appreciate Ning Yue's painstaking efforts.

   But the emperor on the side looked at the chess pieces more.

   Not long after, Prince Gong and Zhulong came over.

  King Gong wore a navy blue cloud-patterned dress, with a plain white neckline and cuffs, fastened with bluestone diamond-shaped buttons, looking elegant and rigorous, with a young and handsome face with a just right smile, very gentle as jade.

  His gaze fell on Princess Deqing's delicate face from the very beginning, and he saw Princess Deqing's little heart beating violently.

  Princess Deqing lowered her head, shyly kneading the handkerchief tightly.

Prince Gong also seemed a little shy, cleared his throat, and after greeting the emperor and the imperial concubine, presented his congratulatory gift, which was a huge box of shark tears: "I personally fished this from the sea. , is the biggest merman's tear in southern Xinjiang, and only the most beautiful princess in the world is worthy of it."

  Ning Yue almost blew it up. I haven't seen him for several months. Ma Jinyan's skin is too thick to be measured by an inch. With his watery nature, he still digs the tears of sharks?

  Princess Deqing liked it so much, she accepted the shark tears and thanked her softly.

Prince Gong turned sideways, pointed to the old man in black robe behind him and said, "Your Majesty, let me introduce to you, this is my retainer, and also the envoy of this mission to southern Xinjiang, named Zhulong. He didn't even attend the banquet, and today is a little better, so I took him to pay his respects to the emperor."

  Zhulong bowed and saluted: "Zhulong, I have met the emperor."

This is not only the emperor's first time seeing Zhulong, but also Ning Yue's first time. Earlier in the palace, she only saw a figure from the back, which she felt resembled Suhuo. Different. Suhuo has facial paralysis, and he can't move his mouth when he speaks. Zhulong is a little old man who loves to laugh, with a very expressive expression. There is a very small cross-shaped scar one inch from the corner of his right lip. If you don't look carefully, it is not very eye-catching. .

Feeling Ning Yue's gaze, Zhulong raised his eyes lightly and smiled slightly: "This... must be the princess of the county?" As if afraid of being asked how to identify him, he said, "Can you stand between Mr. Rong and the eldest son?" I can't think of another handsome woman beside me."

  Rong Lin snorted disdainfully.

  Rong Qing slightly curved his lips: "She is my sister, long time no see, Zhulong."

  Zhulong bent over gentlemanly: "Long time no see, Mr. Rong."

  The emperor's eyes were a little subtle, but a smile gradually appeared on his face: "Rong Aiqing doesn't know Prince Gong, but Zhu Long?"

   "Zhulong is a member of the Geng family and lives in the capital. I have the honor to meet him a few times in the palace." Rong Qing said calmly.

   "It's really hard to see Mr. Rong." Zhu Long agreed with his face.

  The emperor smiled: "It's not easy to meet Rong Aiqing."

   After several people greeted each other, Prince Gong stayed with Princess Deqing to watch the play, while Zhulong, Ning Yue and the others returned to their seats.

Rong Lin pushed Rong Qing to go to the toilet, and the singing stopped on the stage. The middle-aged class leader dressed as a scholar stepped forward, looked at the crowd with piercing eyes and said: "Next, we will perform a trick for the nobles. Let Bai Ling Let the bird greet everyone!"
