The Fenghua Banquet finally began. In this late summer and early autumn season, it brought a bright joy, but it also seemed to be mixed with a silent melancholy.
However, Lou Huan fell ill at this time. This illness came very quickly. Lan Xi came to see her but could not find the cause of the illness. She only said that she had a knot in her heart. However, she knew that this illness was related to the Celestial Stone that her mother gave her. There was a purple pearl-sized pentagram on the back of her neck.
In this half a month, the Fenghua Banquet's contestants were the focus of everyone's attention. They were the hot topic after a meal. The unmarried young ladies in the capital widened their eyes, wanting to choose a future husband from this group of outstanding people. After all, there was only one princess.
Today was the main event. The true Fenghua Banquet would be held in the palace.
Biyue and Ziyi were dressing Lou Huan up carefully. Her pale face, which had been ill for a long time, slowly became rosy with a little rouge.
"During the days when wangfei was sick, she lost a lot of weight.”Purple Dress was full of pity. However, although Miss was sick, her skin was not as pale as ordinary patients. Instead, it was smoother and clearer, like white jade.
"Even if wangfei is sick, she is still very beautiful.”Biyue agreed and then began to tidy Lou Huan's black hair. Her long hair twirled in her hands and in a short while, it was tied into a cloud bun.
"The two of you have a tacit understanding and are teasing me.”Lou Huan looked up lazily and reached out to insert a daffodil hairpin into her hair. The hairpin was made of white jade, and the top was green. It was a flower leaf. The body and stamen carved from white jade and yellow jade were buried in her black hair. They were bright and beautiful, but also faintly elegant and refined.
Huan 'er, are you going to the Fenghua Banquet?" Qi Mu pushed open the door and entered. He was dressed in a silver robe that was elegant and elegant. As he walked, silver light spread out.
"Yes." Lou Huan replied softly. Ziyi and Biyue, who were at the side, bowed and left when they saw the prince.
"Your body hasn't fully recovered yet. It's better for you to stay in the residence and rest well, okay?”Qi Mu gently discussed with his little wife. Today, his little wife was dressed up to the standard of the eight words. She was refined and elegant. He had a little selfishness and did not want anyone to see her. Any gaze would make him feel uncomfortable.
Lou Huan shook her head and her red lips parted slightly." No, Mu, you know that we have no right to do this. I don't want to make things difficult for you because of me.”
Qi Mu's pitch-black eyes rippled, and he unconsciously moved forward to rub his lips against hers.
"Stop fooling around. Your makeup is going to be ruined." Lou Huan pushed him gently with both hands and said coquettishly.
"It's good that your makeup is smudged." Qi Mu muttered to himself in a low voice. It wouldn't look so good if he spent it, which was just what he wanted.
Lou Huan's hearing wasn't bad, so she heard what he said clearly. She was stunned for a moment and seemed to understand the meaning behind his words. Her smile deepened." Alright, it's getting late. Don't be late."”
"But you have to promise me that if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me.”
"I'm not that delicate." Lou Huan refuted, but when she saw Qi Mu's worried eyes, she nodded obediently." Okay."”
The palace was preparing for the Fenghua Banquet in an orderly manner. Lou Huan sat in the carriage and felt a little stuffy, so she reached out to lift the curtain. Suddenly, a red shadow flashed past her eyes. When she wanted to take a closer look, there was nothing, as if it was just her illusion.
Suddenly, a pair of hands wrapped around her from behind and closed the curtain she had opened." You haven't recovered yet," he said worriedly." Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"”
"I think I saw Dongfang Ling just now.”Lou Huan's eyebrows furrowed into a frown, and her expression was rather solemn. Then, she shook her head as if she was consoling herself." I must have seen wrongly. How could he appear here?"”
"You didn't see wrongly. It is indeed Senior Brother. There are seven people who are qualified to attend the Fenghua Banquet this time, and he is one of them.”Qi Mu leaned back lazily and narrowed his eyes as he spoke slowly.
"Seven people? So many!" Lou Huan was surprised. With Empress Zhao's methods, the three major obstacles she had set up must be extremely difficult and difficult. She had expected Ye Aotian to be the only one, leaving Yue He with no one to choose from, or perhaps none at all.
"It was Father who intervened. Prince of Southern Cloud, Ye Aotian, the number one young master of the martial arts world, Dongfang Ling, the third young master of the richest man in the Qi Dynasty, Lou Yuzhan, the son of Huai An Marquis, Wei Xiao, the eldest young master of the number one aristocratic family in the martial arts world, Lin Xiaonan, the fourth young master of the Great General of the Far Suppression, Mo Qinghen, and the son of Minister Yao, Yao Kongzhou.”Qi Mu's lips curved into a smile that was not a smile. He did not expect Consort Shu to have such ability to make Imperial Father resist Empress Zhao for Yue He.
"These seven people are all reputable figures.”Lou Huan's brows furrowed slightly. She always had a bad feeling in her heart. She didn't dare to say it to the others, but Dongfang Ling clearly had Yang Xianwan in her heart. Why would she participate?
"I think, other than Yu Zhan, they are all for their own interests.”Qi Mu said indifferently. However, what was the reason for Senior Brother?
"Mu, I want to go to Zhao Hua Palace to find Yue He.”
"Be careful. I'll wait for you first.”
"Alright."
