Chapter 84 Love is a light, so green it makes you panic
"The Emperor has arrived!"
A sharp voice sounded, and the emperor walked in slowly. Everyone stood up and knelt down to salute.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Hahaha, all my dear friends, please forgive me!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Mother, let's take a seat!" The emperor said to an old lady beside him.
"Okay, okay!" The Queen Mother, with the support of the Emperor, sat down in the main seat.
"Dear ladies, my mother has come to Hanfeng Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings this time. In a few days, my mother's birthday will come, and my mother is very fond of Buddhism. I have made up my mind to take this opportunity to let all my dear friends pay homage to Hanfeng Temple in Hanfeng Temple. Maple Temple should also learn from the monks’ self-discipline.”
"Using copper as a mirror, you can straighten your clothes; using ancient times as a mirror, you can know the ups and downs; using people as a mirror, you can understand gains and losses. There are some bad habits in the court now, and I hope to take this opportunity to eradicate these bad habits .”
"Okay, that's all I have to say. I believe all of you are already hungry. Let's start enjoying the vegetarian meal now!"
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, there were compliments everywhere. Only some old foxes were calm and expressionless, and it was hard to tell what they were thinking.
Only Bi Yuntao, after bowing and taking his seat, stared straight at Meng Ruoxi and Han Wuyong sitting next to him without blinking.
Bi Yuntao's hand holding the chopsticks clenched into a fist, and he became angry and felt sour in his heart. The silver chopsticks even curved slightly due to the strength of his grip.
"Tao'er! Tao'er!"
Bi Yuntao noticed that someone was calling him, and suddenly came to his senses. He turned his head fiercely and looked at the source of the sound. He found that it was the emperor who was calling him. He quickly changed the expression on his face and stood up to salute.
"Father, don't you know what's the point of calling your child?!" Bi Yuntao said respectfully, but the corner of his eyes was still staring at Meng Ruoxi who was covering her mouth and laughing softly.
Damn it, how long ago did they get together? Is it just these days? ! You Meng Ruoxi, you actually cuckolded me, let’s see how I deal with you. And you, Han Wuyong, have always been the one who cheated on others. You dare to pull out teeth from the tiger's mouth and give me a cuckold. You are really brave. If I didn't kill you last time, you are lucky. After the birthday banquet is over, let's see how I kill you!
"What are you thinking about? You are so distracted that you don't even respond when I call you?!"
"Uh..." Bi Yuntao subconsciously glanced at Meng Ruoxi, but with this glance, his eyes suddenly widened and lost focus. That bastard Han Wuyong actually dared to pick up food for Meng Ruoxi!
The emperor had been waiting for Bi Yuntao's answer. When he saw Bi Yuntao staring at something and not answering him, he looked in the direction Bi Yuntao was looking at in confusion.
I saw Meng Ruoxi and Han Wuyong talking and laughing, and they had a close relationship. Han Wuyong even brought a dish for Meng Ruoxi. Suddenly he understood and looked at Bi Yuntao meaningfully.
"Tao'er!" The emperor said Bi Yuntao again.
Bi Yuntao took a deep breath, saluted again and said, "Father."
"Tao'er, I heard that the Empress Dowager said that your mother and concubine brought some drinks called Miao Lian from the Western Regions. The taste was very delicious. She also asked me to send people to the Western Regions to buy some in large quantities, so I went to ask your mother and concubine, but Your mother-in-law said that you gave it to your mother-in-law, so I would like to ask you, what is the taste of Miaolian drink, which makes the Queen Mother miss you so much. Do you still have Miaolian there? Can you give it to your father? Come and have a taste?”
"So that's what happened." Bi Yuntao breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he was going to ask questions about himself, blaming himself for being too harsh on the third prince, but he didn't expect that he was asking about Miao Lian.
After the emperor finished speaking, the empress dowager on the side also showed an expectant expression.
"This..." Bi Yuntao suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and said with an embarrassed face, "Father, it is really unlucky. The last bottle left has been drank by my son today."
"Oh, that's it! Then it seems that we can only wait for news about the servants sent to the Western Regions." The emperor said with disappointment, and the empress dowager also had a disappointed expression on her face.
"But..." Bi Yuntao changed the subject. "However, I have a way to get some."
Seeing that Bi Yuntao seemed to be turning around, the disappointed emperor and empress dowager looked at Bi Yuntao again with hopeful eyes.
"Oh? What can I do?"
"Ha! Father, the mountain man has his own clever plan. You and the Queen Mother can just wait with peace of mind!"
"What a brat! You're still cheating on your father!" The emperor joked, "Okay, it's up to you, but don't keep me waiting too long!"
"Father, don't worry!" Bi Yuntao assured him, patting his chest. "Aren't you still worried about my son's work?"
"Okay, you should eat quickly." The emperor said. "If you don't use it, the food will be cold!"
"Yes!" Bi Yuntao responded.
After sitting down, he glanced at Meng Ruoxi and the others.
As if they didn't notice his serious gaze, the two of them continued to flirt with each other, talking and laughing.
Bi Yuntao was so angry that he picked up a piece of tofu, threw it into his mouth, chewed it hard, as if the tofu was the two of them, and vented all his resentment to the tofu in his mouth.
Bi Yuntao chewed the tofu with a ferocious look on his face, his eyes already fixed on Meng Ruoxi.
Did they treat me like air? ! Thanks to my infatuation with you, Meng Ruoxi, you actually ignored our engagement and flirted with each other outside, even in front of the emperor, humiliating people without doing this, and without betraying anyone at all!
Bi Yuntao felt that he was about to be blown away. He gritted his teeth and picked up another piece of green cucumber, while his eyes had already been fixed on Meng Ruoxi.
Because I had been staring at Meng Ruoxi and the two of them, my attention was focused on them, so my hands were not accurate. The cucumber I just picked up fell to the table with a squeak before it was put into my mouth. Bi Yuntao ignored it and continued chewing.
I picked up another bean, but this time it was great. As soon as I picked it up, it fell down.
"Ah!" Bi Yuntao exclaimed softly and shook his burned palm vigorously. It turned out that the beans fell on his palm.
Bi Yuntao lowered his head and realized that there was a mess in front of him. He was about to call his servants to clean it up, but when he saw the beans and cucumber slices thrown away, he was immediately filled with anger.
OK! How dare you two green vegetables laugh at me! It doesn't matter that you are green, you actually formed a smiling face, and you dared to put on a smiley face towards me. Damn it, I won’t eat it!
Bi Yuntao stood up suddenly and knocked over the dishes. For a moment, everyone looked at Bi Yuntao.
Bi Yuntao snorted at Meng Ruoxi and the others in embarrassment, waved his sleeves without saying a word, and left without looking back, regardless of the strange looks from the people present.
For a moment, the entire dining hall fell into silence. Those present looked at me and I looked at each other, not daring to speak.
There were also some courageous ministers who secretly looked at the emperor and the empress dowager. Seeing that the emperor was not angry, they couldn't help but feel a little shocked. They didn't understand why the fourth prince was so unbecoming and the emperor was not angry.
"Haha!" The emperor looked at Bi Yuntao who was getting angry and shook his head and left. He glanced at Meng Ruoxi and suddenly understood. He showed a playful smile and laughed loudly, "The fourth prince has gone to run errands for me. , you don’t have to worry about it, just continue to eat!”
The ministers all said yes and bowed their heads to enjoy the fasting meal. However, with this incident, how could they concentrate on the meal? Everyone was making calculations in their hearts.
Meng Ruoxi saw Bi Yuntao's eyes turning towards her as he walked away. His eyes were full of undisguised dissatisfaction and anger. Now she was even more confused. She didn't understand how she had offended him? Does he really not want to see himself? Thinking of this, his face suddenly darkened.
Obviously I haven't seen him for a long time. I have been counting the days these days. Not only has my yearning for him not diminished, but I have missed him even more.
I also plan to finish my lunch and go see him in the afternoon! Since he is so petty, just leave him alone for a few days until he loses his composure and comes to apologize to you!
Of course, Han Wuyong also saw Bi Yuntao's serious eyes staring at him. Thinking of his previous behavior, he couldn't help but shudder. He didn't understand why he stared at him like this, but he saw the emperor glance this way. , and then a smile with unknown meaning appeared on his face. He turned his head suspiciously and glanced at Meng Ruoxi, whose face darkened, and suddenly realized that King Qi was jealous!
Then he smiled and shook his head in confusion. It seems that he needs to find time to explain to King Qi, otherwise one day, when he is not paying attention, he will bring Zhentian Lei to him for a while. He does not want to be like the third prince, who can only spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. .
The Queen Mother was a little resentful and asked the emperor, "What's wrong with the fourth emperor's grandson? Don't you want to prepare wonderful love for the Ai family?!"
"Haha!" The emperor was dumbfounded, "Mother, you are overthinking. I think Tao'er is in a hurry to prepare for you!"
The Empress Dowager suddenly understood and nodded, but the Empress who had not spoken yet spoke up, "Mother, haven't you noticed that Tao'er is always absent-minded today?"
"Of course the Ai family found out. He has been absent-minded and distracted. Even when the emperor called him, it took him several times to respond." After a pause, he asked the queen suspiciously, "Do you know the reason?"
"Giggle!" The queen covered her mouth and chuckled, "Mother, of course I know, and I'm not the only one who knows, even the emperor is like Ming Jing in his heart."
"You also know?!" The Queen Mother looked at the Emperor suspiciously.
"Ahem!" The emperor coughed twice, "My beloved concubine, why did you sell me out like this?"
The queen rolled her eyes at the emperor, ignored him, and continued to say to the empress dowager, "Mother, do you still remember the direction Tao'er was looking in before?"
The Queen Mother nodded, and the Queen continued, "If you follow his gaze before, you will know more or less."
The Queen Mother looked suspiciously in the direction where Bi Yuntao was looking before, and saw Meng Ruoxi sitting next to Han Wuyong, but she still didn't understand. "The Ai family still doesn't understand. Could it be that Tao'er has fallen in love with Meng Ruoxi? But she is his future second emperor's wife!"
"Okay! Queen Mother!" the emperor said, "Just let me get through it first, and I will explain it to you after your birthday has passed. What I can tell you now is that Taoer's walking away is indeed related to Meng Ruoxi. .”
Then he stood up and said goodbye to the Queen Mother, "Mother, please continue to enjoy lunch. I am a little tired, so I will take the Queen down to rest first!"
