Chapter 1382 The Foolish Empress 5
The drama must be done enough. Xi Ning just pulled up King Duan. This guy is really strong. If he fights alone, he will definitely not be able to defeat him. Who knows that the master of the body doesn't practice martial arts well, and he doesn't know what to do every day.
Xi Ning held Prince Duan's arm and reminisced: "Brother, it was all those treacherous ministers who caused our death. We haven't seen each other for many years. Every time I know you are coming to Beijing, I want to see you. They keep saying that you will Kill me. Look, now that the emperor is here, I am still not well. Think about it, when I was the eldest daughter of the emperor, I secretly ate grapes from the Western Regions. As a result, the emperor took the blame and knelt down in the emperor's temple hungry. , I secretly sent food there in the middle of the night.”
Prince Duan was still confused, but since the empress didn't mention his rebellion at all, he went along with it. Add some emotion, as if moved: "I didn't expect His Majesty to still remember this."
The owner of the body did such a good thing, but it was not really a good thing. He made a mistake, but let his brother take the blame. It wasn't because I couldn't bear it that I sent him something. But only in this way will someone be willing to support her.
Although the body owner has been mediocre since she was a child, she has never done anything to kill her brothers and sisters. However, everyone tried their best to protect her so that she would not have any accidents and deal with the open and secret attacks of the princes and princesses.
This is also the reason why the late emperor and the ministers can rest assured to hand over the country to her. That is, after becoming the empress, she was made trouble by the slanderous and slanderous ministers.
"Remember, how can I not remember." Xi Ning put down his hand, turned around and ordered: "Brother Huang must be hungry, I want to eat with him. There are also the officers and soldiers of King Qin outside who must also bring food. , can’t neglect it.”
Manager Khan, if the empress says a word, his subordinates will die from exhaustion. There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside, how can we feed them?
But now that I have said it, I must try my best to come up with it and salute immediately: "Yes!"
"Brother Emperor, we haven't seen each other for a long time. We must talk all night long this time." Xining took Prince Duan's strong arm and walked out of the palace: "Let's go to the Jinxiu Palace, where flowers bloom all year round. The aroma is pleasant. Light candles and hang lanterns, and the night view is beautiful. Tell me, what kind of grievances have you suffered over the years, and my sister helped you vent your anger..."
Everyone stared, watching Prince Duan being dragged away by the empress. I can't figure out when the relationship between these two people became so good. Everyone knew in the past that the Empress did not like Prince Duan and regarded him as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. This one led troops to force the palace, and actually forced out feelings.
The manager quickly came to his senses and made arrangements immediately.
For the night banquet between the Empress and Prince Duan, we need to get the food as soon as possible. There are tens of thousands of people outside, and food and accommodation must be arranged.
If the arrangement couldn't be worked out, it wouldn't be the rebels' turn to kill him, and the empress would first have to be held accountable and have his head chopped off.
The Splendid Palace often arranges banquets. At this time, the fragrance of the blooming flowers in the garden covers up the smell of blood outside.
When Xining arrived at Jinxiu Palace, he immediately ordered people to arrange a bath and change for King Duan, who was dressed in military uniform. I was wearing Gun Mian's clothes, so of course I went to change my clothes.
Anyway, tens of thousands of people are still in the palace, and a team of about ten good soldiers are following closely. He is not afraid of any tricks the empress will play, so Prince Duan can rest assured.
"I want to sit at the same table with King Duan. All utensils are made of silver. Ask someone next to you to taste each dish before serving it." Xining instructed while changing clothes. It's hard to stabilize the bottom king, but there can't be any mistakes.
Someone came in and reported: "Rebels, no, there are too many people outside and not enough food in the palace." Now we can't say they are rebels. As long as the empress says otherwise, they are not.
Xi Ning thought for a while: "Knock on the doors of the ministers and ask them to reward the army together. Just say it is my will. Every family must send a cook and provide food. Unless the official is honest, he really cannot provide food. Come. Otherwise I will punish them!”
There are very few honest officials in the government, and a few dare to say that they don't even have food at home.
When the army arrived, these ministers closed their doors one by one. How many of them came to stop them? They don't even think about it, if King Duan ascends the throne and the treasury is empty and needs to ransack homes to fill the treasury, they will be able to survive alone.
Are you doing them a disservice by asking them to bring out some food now?
The manager immediately said: "Did you hear that? Go and do it quickly!"
With a smile on his face: "Your Majesty is indeed wise and wise. The servant was frightened just now. Your Majesty resolved it with just a few words. He is indeed the True Dragon Emperor, protected by his ancestors." Xining glanced sideways, you are just flattering, choose Nice to say. But he was still loyal. In the previous plot, he followed the body owner closely. Before his death, he stepped forward to reason with him, but he was chopped with a knife.
The personal maid asked: "Your Majesty, which set of clothes should you choose?"
Xining thought for a while: "Just the one with hibiscus flowers."
When she was the eldest princess, she secretly delivered food in the middle of the night and wore clothes embroidered with hibiscus flowers. Wearing this also reminds King Duan of his old love.
In fact, he didn't expect that a set of clothes or one or two small things would make King Duan let him go. Since ancient times, the imperial family has been ruthless. Regardless of whether Prince Duan believes in her or not, he certainly cannot kill her now. Since we can't kill each other, try to ease the relationship.
The maid in charge of clothes immediately went to look through the clothes. Although the emperor had many skirts, as a maid in charge of clothes, she must be familiar with every one of them.
The long emerald skirt has pink hibiscus flowers embroidered on the hem, sleeves and neckline. It must have been there for a long time, and the skirt has deep pleats. The empress usually wears gold and silver, and likes gorgeous dresses. She has never worn such fresh dresses since they were made.
Xining looked at the bronze mirror and nodded.
The personal maid asked again: "What kind of hair does Your Majesty want to wear? Is it a double-ring bun?" That was the style the empress often wore when she was the eldest princess.
Xining thought for a while: "High tapered bun, paired with double dragon and double phoenix hairpins." It would be too deliberate if she kept her hair in the same bun as before.
After finishing combing and dressing up, someone came to report, and King Duan took the initiative and was already waiting for him in the pavilion in the garden.
Well, keep acting! Xining took two sips of the strong ginseng tea that was handed to him, cheered up, and went to the pavilion.
King Duan was already sitting in the pavilion. When he saw her coming, he immediately stood up, knelt down and saluted: "See you, Your Majesty."
The back is straight and heroic.
"Brother, please get up quickly." Xining hurriedly went to help her, feeling that there were faint lights and shadows of swords all around. It was not the time for her to take the bridge, so she had a good attitude and continued to be gentle: "Today is just my brother and sister's family dinner, there is no need to be polite, otherwise it will destroy you and me. Yaxing.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" King Duan stood up, his words and deeds were in line with the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers, impeccable.
King Duan has taken off his dark armor and is wearing a brocade robe with blue auspicious cloud patterns on a white background. His hair is all tied up, and his tall black bun is decorated with a sapphire lotus wreath. He has put away all his splendor and turned out to be a handsome young man.
Xi Ning looked up and smiled: "I haven't seen you for many years. Unknowingly, the emperor brother was already an adult. He was only not much taller than me when he left. I didn't expect him to be so heroic."
This is the truth. This King Duan is really a talented person, comparable to all the celebrities in the palace.
Mo Ming: "What are you thinking about? Are you trying to seduce? This is the body owner's half-brother."
What, don’t think of me so dirty, okay? Everyone has a love for beauty, I just appreciate it.
