Young Liang Zhu
This was the first invitation after Xue Pinggui ascended the throne.
There were many vassal states and vassal states.
The Central Plains was vast, and now he had a strong army under his command.
He wanted to intimidate them.
The vassal states wanted to show off their national prestige.
So that he could sit firmly on the throne as the new emperor. These were naturally necessary.
This banquet.
The emperor and empress were one, so of course, they had to go in and out together.
Looking at the newly made luxurious phoenix robe, it was no wonder that Tuozan was so anxious about Wang Baochuan's death.
If Wang Baochuan didn't die, how could she give up the throne? This kind of banquet was rare in her life. It represented the highest authority and supreme glory.
Thinking about it, it should have been her.
But she could only watch helplessly.
That kind of heart-scratching.
As proud as Tuozan was, she definitely couldn't stand it.
"This phoenix robe is really beautiful." After the clothes were sent over, Cui 'er's eyes never left them. She hadn't studied, so she couldn't say what adjectives to describe it.
After tossing and turning, she could only use the word beautiful.
She leisurely applied nail polish on her manicured nails.
Siyang only glanced at it indifferently.
Then, she retracted her gaze.
"It was made according to the dragon robe.
This is inevitable. "
"Miss, quickly try it on. It will definitely look good on you." Cui 'er touched it carefully. Her eyes were sparkling as she looked at Siyang expectantly.
After she finished painting the last nail, the little palace maid kneeling beside her carefully fanned her with her hand.
Siyang was sitting on the couch and talking when footsteps came from outside the bedroom. She raised her eyebrows, and in the next moment, a familiar figure appeared. She was dressed gorgeously, and her accessories jingled as she walked.
Tuozan walked in with a cold and bright face.
At a glance, she saw the phoenix robe placed on the table. The golden-red phoenix robe was too eye-catching, and it was hard not to notice it.
Seeing this, her face immediately turned ugly.
"Sister, how do you have time to visit sister?" The corners of Siyang's lips curled, but she didn't get up to welcome her.
Elder sister, she was not worthy.
Tuozan's eyes were cold. She had never regarded Wang Baochuan as a good sister. Those so-called sisters were just for show. At that time, she thought that this woman would not live for long anyway. Taking advantage of her could be considered as accumulating some good karma.
Unexpectedly, not only did this person not die, he was even living more freely. Look at him now.
"Phoenix Robe." Stroking the exquisitely embroidered robe, Tuozan's eyes flickered with flames.
"That's right, it's the new phoenix robe that was hastily made for me."
Sitting up from the couch, Siyang walked over and casually shook open the top of the robe. It was a bright red robe with a phoenix embroidered with golden thread. Its wings were spread out, and the feathers of the phoenix were dazzling.
"Do I look good?" Siyang smiled and looked at Tuozan.
Her hands clenched tightly, loosened, and clenched again. However, even if Tuozan wanted to deceive herself, she couldn't. Wang Baochuan was clearly provoking her.
"Are you very pleased with yourself?" Tuozan glared angrily at Siyang. She gritted her teeth and squeezed out these words.
"Hm?" Slightly hesitant, Siyang raised her eyebrows with a half smile: "Sister, how can you say that? What's there to be pleased about? Isn't this mine?"
"You dare to call yourself that in front of me?" Finally, Tuozan couldn't hold back anymore. Endless resentment appeared between her brows. Taking a step forward, she fiercely grabbed the phoenix robe in Siyang's hands. Suppressing her anger and hatred: "You're just a small commoner girl. I'm the Honorable Princess of Xiliang. I'm giving you some face by calling you sister. Do you really think you're the Empress?"
Cui 'er couldn't see this and hurriedly stepped forward: "Little …"
Siyang calmly raised her hand to stop her. During this time, Cui 'er had been exceptionally obedient after being drugged. Seeing this, even though she was anxious, she still stopped in her tracks.
Her gaze calmly met Tuozan's furious eyes. Siyang's expression was calm. She lowered her head to look at the hand on the phoenix robe. She used so much force that the robe wrinkled and changed its shape. She frowned slightly. She also had to wear this robe in front of others.
"Sister, you're from Xiliang. Sister understands, but I still want to give you a good lesson."
"You want to give me a lesson?" As if she had heard the funniest joke, Tuozan laughed coldly. She wanted to see what kind of lesson Siyang was going to give her.
"First, you're the Western Liang Princess. I'm also the daughter of the Prime Minister. You're from a small country like Xiliang and I'm from a large country like the Central Plains. In terms of status, I'm not inferior to you."
"Ridiculous." Tuozan didn't hold back her sarcasm: "You've long severed ties with your parents. Your father was also executed. What kind of Prime Minister's daughter are you?"
Siyang was unmoved and didn't feel embarrassed: "So what I want to say is, your father died a long time ago. The Central Plains and Xiliang became one. They both belong to the current Emperor. You're no longer the Western Liang Princess. You're just a small concubine in the harem."
"A small concubine, ha." Tuozan was thoroughly angered by this sentence. She was also angry. She glared at Siyang with red eyes and shouted: "I'm the successor of Xiliang. As long as I, Tuozan, am alive, I'm the Princess of Xiliang. I have the absolute right to speak."
As the personal maid of King Zan, Aya originally wanted to stop the princess today, but in the end, she failed to do so. When she came to the Jade Earth Palace, she didn't say much because she felt sorry for the princess. However, when she saw the faint smile on Si Yang's face, she felt that something was wrong. When she suddenly heard the princess's words, her heart jumped and she hurriedly stepped forward. "Princess, please calm down. You and His Majesty are one. This is natural. As the princess of Xi Liang, no one can destroy this."
Siyang looked at Aya a few more times. Tuozan had a sensible person by her side. Unfortunately, she didn't do anything sensible.
"Let's not talk about the status." Siyang lowered her head and slowly put her hand on Tuozan's hand that was holding the phoenix robe. She spoke and moved at the same time: "I'm His Majesty's first wife. First come, first served. Princess, no matter how noble you are, to put it nicely, you're a noble consort. To put it bluntly, you're a concubine …" Her voice gradually lowered. She gently used her fingers to pry open Tuozan's tightly clenched fingers one by one.
She leaned forward. Her voice was low and soft as if it couldn't be heard. However, Tuozan heard it clearly.
"Princess, your two children are also the son and daughter of a concubine. They're not the legitimate wife. I don't know if His Majesty will hesitate to appoint the Crown Prince after I give birth to the legitimate son."
"You …" Tuozan's pupils shrank in an instant. Before she could get angry at Siyang's words, the latter half of the sentence made Tuozan start to think.
Xue Pinggui, he …
Siyang clearly wasn't pressing down on her, but Tuozan felt that she couldn't breathe. Her chest rose and fell faster. In addition to the piercing pain from her fingers, she finally couldn't endure it and pushed forward: "Get out of my way."
Seeing the person who appeared at the door as expected, Si Yang took the opportunity to fall backwards.
Siyang lowered her head to look at Xue Pinggui, who was lying on the bed with his eyes tightly closed and reeking of alcohol. The corners of her mouth twitched mockingly. In the end, she slowly put down the curtain and turned to walk to the table.
She opened the lid of the incense burner and gently fiddled with the silver hairpin.
A pair of hands silently hugged her slender waist from behind. Then, a low voice with a warm breath sounded by her ear.
"If His Majesty knew that Her Majesty would rather take the risk of tampering with his calming incense than being in bed with him, I don't know what he would think."
Looking down at the large hands on her waist, Siyang slowly inserted the silver hairpin into her hair bun. She nimbly broke free of the arms around her and turned around. Looking at the handsome man in front of her, she curled her lips and smiled. Her hand pushed against his chest, increasing the distance between them.
"The Runan Of Gojoseon entered the palace without an imperial order and barged into the Sweet Dew Palace at night. How should he be punished for such a disgraceful act?"
Li Yi lowered his head to look at Siyang's increasingly beautiful face. His chest heated up and his eyes narrowed. He held the hand in front of her chest and leaned close to her ear. His voice was low and mellow: "Her Majesty left out one sentence."
Siyang's eyebrows rose slightly. In the next moment, her waist was held again. Her body was pressed into the man's arms with more force.
"This official still has to go to Wu Mountain with Her Majesty. Should I add another crime of causing chaos in the palace?
"Then Wangye really is capable." Siyang laughed mockingly.
Li Yi paused and didn't take her words to heart. His large hand wrapped around her hand and pulled it to his chest. His gaze swept over the tightly covered dragon bed and his black eyes narrowed: "Her Majesty has decided."
"Your Highness is already here, yet you still dare to say such words. If you regret it … Oh, you …" Si Yang swallowed the rest of her words down her throat.
Her nose was filled with a completely unfamiliar scent. The slightly forceful bite on her lips made Siyang struggle in dissatisfaction. Immediately after, her body was encircled by an even stronger force. In reality, if she really wanted to break free, even ten people wouldn't be able to stop her. But tonight was one of her plans, so she allowed him to do whatever he wanted.
After a long time, their lips parted and an ambiguous atmosphere mingled between the two.
"This official suddenly has something that I don't understand. Can Her Majesty explain?" Holding her in his arms, the hand that was holding Siyang's chin changed to gently rubbing her cheeks. Li Yi's eyes were fixed on her.
"Wangye, speak." Siyang changed position and leaned into his arms.
"Why did you choose me?" He asked softly and planted a kiss on her earlobe. He watched with satisfaction at that instant sensitive reaction.
Siyang tilted her head and laughed lightly. Her finger casually drew on his chest: "Wangye thinks that the ambition in his eyes is hidden very well. Unfortunately, this consort just happens to have a pair of eyes that can see through the smallest details. You can fool Xue Pinggui, but you can't fool this consort."
If one were to ask why Siyang and this Wangye had only met twice, it could only be said that benefits were the driving force.
