Chapter 226 She Was So...Eloquent

Pei Chenjing was startled, and then smiled wryly, "Although your sister has done something wrong, it's not too much for you to call me brother-in-law, right? In the eyes of this king, you are my wife and sister, and there is no other meaning. Pearl doesn't need to avoid suspicion too much."

Sarcasm flashed across Yi Zhu's eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "King Jing is joking, my servant has no older sister, and if you talk about the rules and seniority, I feel that King Jing should call my daughter a sister-in-law."

Pei Chenjing was stunned, and then a flash of uneasiness flashed across Jun's face.

Seeing him deflated, Shen Yan burst out laughing, "Miss Yi Zhu is very reasonable."

Gu Xiu also said: "Miss Yi Zhu has been engaged to Prince Yuan, and they will be married in a few months. King Jing really calls her sister-in-law, which is more appropriate. Besides, Miss Yi Zhu has no older sister. King Jing may forget about it for a while. wrong."

Embarrassment flashed across Pei Chenjingjun's face, "It's just that... the king is confused."

Yizhu said generously: "When the sage is still confused, you don't have to blame yourself for the momentary mistake of King Jing."

Pei Chenjing: "..." Why didn't he realize that she was so... eloquent?
Fengwu took a deep look at Yizhu.

He would know her. Naturally, the queen mother mentioned that when she revised the book to her father several times, she said that she would marry Miss Yizhu to him last time, but later, for some reason, it was nothing. King Yuan is engaged.

"The Emperor is here—"

At this time, the voice of the servant singing rang out.

Then, the bright yellow figure of the emperor appeared in the imperial garden.

Behind him, the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager Feng, Pei Yuan, Pei Lu and other kings also arrived one after another.

For a moment, the sound of kneeling and saluting resounded through the imperial garden.

Pei Chen walked up to the high platform and raised his hand, "My lords, please forgive me!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

As soon as everyone was seated, the voice of the servants sang again: "Prince Atasan and Princess Toya of Wuli Kingdom, bring your envoys to meet—"

Hearing the sound, everyone looked towards the entrance one after another, and saw a tall and mighty young man walking in first, behind him was a graceful woman in red with a veil on her face, and at the end was a group of Wuli people. Envoy.

When they got close, Prince Atasan and Princess Toya, together with their envoys, paid homage to the emperor.

"Atasang (Tuoya), pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor Daliang, may His Majesty live forever!"

Even among the rough male voices, Princess Wuliguo's melodious and beautiful voice, like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, still fell into everyone's ears.

For a moment, everyone remembered the strange incident of Princess Wuliguo singing and attracting butterflies on the long street yesterday, and they started talking in low voices.

Pei Chenxu raised his hand, and said in a warm voice, "Excuse me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wu Liguo thanked everyone, and Princess Toya, who was surrounded in the middle, slowly raised her eyes and looked at Pei Chen from afar.

But just glanced at it, then looked away without much interest.

Prince Atasan waved his hand back, and the accompanying soldiers lifted up the two boxes.

"This is a congratulatory gift specially prepared by our country for His Majesty Daliang. A small gift is not a respect."

The prince spoke modestly, but when the box was opened, it was full of rare treasures.

"I have received Wu Liguo's kindness. You have come from afar. You have worked hard. Please take a seat." Pei Chen said gently, but without losing his majesty.

Prince Atasan, Princess Toya, and a group of envoys took their seats one after another.

Afterwards, there are gifts from the royal family and courtiers.

After presenting the gift, amidst the sound of silk and bamboo orchestra, the palace people filed in with delicacies.

For the convenience of talking, the girls Yi Zhu and Si Lan specially chose the last place.

While eating, several people whispered to each other, talking about the prince and princess of Wuli Kingdom.

Yizhu listened quietly, and occasionally picked up some food for the child, but she always felt that there was a gaze following her like a shadow, and it was difficult for her to ignore it even if she wanted to.

Annoyed, she looked up and saw a rather handsome man looking at her lazily across the way.

Seeing her looking over, she picked up the cup and raised it from a distance.

Yi Zhu recognized him at a glance, it was Pei Lu, King of Qi who met outside the calligraphy and painting shop that day.

She frowned in disgust and ignored him.

But if she had known that the other party had also hid behind here, she would never have chosen to sit here.

"Zhu Er, who is that person?" Si Lan also found Pei Lu, and asked in a low voice.

"King Qi." Yizhu also lowered her voice.

As soon as Si Lan heard the word King Qi, Si Lan lost interest in an instant.

King Qi's lustful name is famous all over the world.

"He seems to be looking at you all the time, when did you provoke him?" Si Lan asked.

Yizhu shook her head, not wanting to talk about this person.

Slan paused, and suddenly touched her arm, "I heard that King Qi and King Yuan had a very close relationship in the past, but something happened later, and the two became estranged."

Yizhu was startled, and looked at her in surprise, because she had never heard of this matter.

Si Lan shrugged and reminded: "This person looks dangerous, stay away from him."

"Understood." Yi Zhu nodded.

"Aijia heard that Princess Toya's singing can attract butterflies, but is it true?"

At this time, the empress dowager's kind voice sounded.

All eyes were on Princess Toya.

"The empress dowager is laughing, it's nothing more than a trick." Princess Toya said modestly.

"Princess Toya is too modest. When you came yesterday, you attracted the crowds of the whole city to watch. Now outside, there are all praises for you. I am very curious. I wonder if I can admire this spectacle today?" At that moment, Empress Dowager Feng also spoke.

Princess Toya said unhurriedly: "Toya is a guest, so how can you overwhelm the host? Besides, Toya has heard that all the noble ladies in your country are talented. This time I am honored to come to your country, and I really want to share with you all. Ladies, do you have the honor to study one or two?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone on Daliang's side fell silent.

Everyone has heard about Princess Toya's singing and attracting butterflies on the long street yesterday. No matter how talented the noble girls on Daliang side are, they can't compare to them, right?

Princess Toya said it humbly, but in fact she was sure of the noble ladies on Daliang's side, no one could match her.

"On purpose, with her singing voice that attracts butterflies, who can beat her?" Shen Luoluo sneered.

"What is she trying to do? Didn't she get enough limelight yesterday?" Qi Yue also said angrily.

"The banquet is boring, but you can watch the excitement." Si Lan was looking forward to it.

Hearing what she said, Qi Yue and Shen Luoluo nodded in agreement, "That's right, let's just add to the fun."

Yi Zhu was about to say something, but when she saw the rash on the faces of the three of them, she was frightened and fell silent.

"You three... It's best to hide better." After a long while, she reminded in a low voice.

"Why?" The three looked at her in bewilderment.

The child coughed lightly, and said in a voice that only a few people could hear: "Your medicine has begun to work."

The three of them were startled and raised their hands to touch their faces.

When I touched the pimples on my face, I wished I could bury myself in the soil.

But at this time, Pei Lu, who was opposite, was afraid that everyone would not notice them, and suddenly said loudly: "Hey, what happened to the girls' faces?"
