"Your Majesty has arrived~~~~"
As the eunuch's shrill singing sounded, all the noise in the Baohe Hall came to an abrupt end.
Even Zhao Ding and Dayu's envoy also stood solemnly.
He couldn't help but look towards the door.
Outside the Baohe Hall, an old figure wearing a bright yellow dragon robe slowly appeared.
The dragon walks and the tiger steps, majesty arises by itself.
It was none other than Xiao Daocheng.
Compared with the old and twilight state of the past, at this moment, Xiao Daocheng's white hair was meticulously erected and neatly gathered behind his head. His cloudy eyes were shining brightly, and he glanced at everyone present with majesty.
Beside him, Luo Huqi, a middle-aged woman whose face was somewhat similar to Xiao Yunu's, walked with grace, elegance, dignity and grace.
Beiliang has no queen.
After Xiao Daocheng's first wife died of illness early in life, he never made any plans to establish a successor.
The imperial concubine has always been responsible for all matters in the harem.
That is, Xiao Yunu and the biological mother of the current prince---Concubine Chen.
At this moment, he looked at this middle-aged woman who was very similar to Xiao Yunu.
And its posture is only half a step behind Xiao Daocheng.
Zhao Ding reacted almost instantly.
Not surprisingly, the middle-aged woman in front of her who looked very similar to Xiao Yunu was none other than Concubine Chen, the uncrowned queen of the Northern Liang harem.
Concubine Chen's background is quite legendary. She is not the daughter of a wealthy family, nor does she have a prominent background. She is just an ordinary palace maid.
After Xiao Daocheng drunkenly favored her, she was given a status by Xiao Daocheng based on her son's worthiness, but it was only a talent level one level higher than the lowest beauties.
Relying on her talents, she gradually reached the position of concubine she is today.
It can be said that the reason why Xiao Dingxuan was quickly established as the prince after the Beiliang coup was not only good at planning and forbearing, but also had something to do with his mother who came from a lowly background but became uncrowned.
In addition to the uncrowned concubine of Beilian, Xiao Daocheng was followed by many other concubines, all of whom were present in costumes, with various appearances, and each had their own elegance.
As the prince, Xiao Dingxuan naturally followed Xiao Daocheng, just like his mother, just one step behind Xiao Daocheng.
At this moment, he looked at Zhao Ding sitting upright in the hall.
Xiao Dingxuan's eyes glanced slightly, then returned to a solemn expression.
Behind Xiao Daocheng, there were several princes and princesses.
Especially Xiao Yunu.
At this moment, Xiao Yunu was different from her past charming and naive aura. Her fair and flawless face was filled with a solemn look. She was dressed in a gorgeous and complicated red palace skirt, which outlined her perfectly slender and slender curves. .
While her grace is outstanding, she also retains the elegance of a princess of a country.
Especially those pair of peach blossom-like eyes, looking and looking, are alluring.
Coolness and beauty, perfect softness on her body.
But it's a pity that no one can look up at this time.
When Xiao Daocheng stepped into the Baohe Hall, everyone at the seats stood up and bowed their heads in salute.
The same is true including Zhao Ding.
Behind Xiao Yunu, Kong Qiuyue followed carefully.
Logically speaking, she should not have followed the royal family on this occasion today, but because of her special status, as the daughter of the great scholar Kong Lingda and Xiao Yunu's teacher, Xiao Daocheng was particularly gracious today. Allow him to accompany him.
Moreover, today's Kong Qiuyue does not have the neutral dress of a female official in the past. She is also wearing an elegant sky-blue skirt, with a few dots of powder on top of her bare makeup, which makes her already elegant face even more attractive.
Even standing behind Xiao Yunu, he still looked elegant at all.
At this moment, as Xiao Yunu entered the hall, Kong Qiuyue's eyes kept wandering around the people in the hall.
When she saw Zhao Ding standing at the front of the team, bowing his head in salute, Kong Qiuyue's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up.
It's really him!
That day at the pavilion, he had a very deep impression of Zhao Ding, especially after hearing that Zhao Ding was attacked and thinking about the connection, he had already made some judgments about Zhao Ding's identity.
But now when I look at Zhao Ding sitting on the left side of the seat in the main hall, my heart is filled with an inexplicable color.
"He is really... Zhao Qian's ninth prince Zhao Ding?"
Seeing Zhao Ding's figure, Kong Qiuyue's heart beat inexplicably faster.
But when she glanced at Xiao Yunu beside her, who was also looking at Zhao Ding, Kong Qiuyue quickly withdrew her eyes, lowered her head and followed Xiao Yunu carefully.
Not saying a word, not saying a word, it was as if I had never seen it before.
"Sister, that's Zhao Ding, what do you think? I'm right, Zhao Ding is not what you think."
Xiao Yunu's suppressed excitement sounded in Kong Qiuyue's ears.
"Oh, yes."
Kong Qiuyue smiled awkwardly, responded briefly, and quickly lowered her head.
No more responses.
Looking at this scene, Xiao Yunu frowned slightly, and with his intelligent eyes, he glanced at the expression on Kong Qiuyue's face suspiciously, and then glanced at Zhao Ding doubtfully.
A big question mark appeared on his forehead.
What's going on here?
At the same time, on the other side, seeing Xiao Yunu's gaze, Zhao Ding also looked at Xiao Yunu calmly.
The last time we said goodbye, he hadn't seen this little girl for a long time.
The two people's eyes met in the air for a moment, but they quickly separated. There was a different feeling in each other's hearts.
But Kong Qiuyue on the side looked at Zhao Ding without looking at herself.
I don't know why, but a slight sense of loss arose in my heart.
However, he couldn't allow this loss to remain in his heart for long.
The team paused slightly.
Xiao Daocheng slowly sat down on the main seat with the support of the purple-robed eunuch beside him.
As Xiao Daocheng sat down.
Xiao Dingxuan, Xiao Yunu, Kong Qiuyue and others also sat down one after another, raised their heads and looked forward solemnly.
"Let's have a feast!"
Then a sharp voice sounded from the purple-robed eunuch standing next to Xiao Daocheng.
Xiao Daocheng slowly picked up the wine bottle. After Xiao Daocheng picked up the wine bottle, everyone present picked up the wine bottle one after another and looked at Xiao Daocheng.
Xiao Daocheng nodded slightly, then looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Zhao Ding and the middle-aged man from Dayu. He smiled and said: "Today's banquet is originally for the Ninth Prince of Daqian and all the noble envoys of Daqian. However, I never thought that my friend Dayu from afar would come with the same envoy.
After a little thought, I decided to hold these two banquets together, so that we can contribute to the centuries-old friendship between Yu and Liang.
You must have a great time today, and you will not come home until you are drunk! "
Xiao Daocheng raised his wine bottle and said with a smile to Zhao Ding and the Dayu envoy.
This sentence seems simple, just like a polite opening, but it actually puts the envoys of Dayu and Daqian in the same place.
Especially when Dayu, who should be in front, was specially placed behind Daqian.
It is also known as Qianyu Liang.
The meaning here is a bit intriguing.
