Jiujiu knew that Mei Shu 'er would definitely come to this banquet. She specially combed her hair into a falling horse bun and paired it with the golden buyao that Huang Yixiao prepared for her. It made her simple and clean little face look even more exquisite.
She wore a smoky blue gauze dress and a simple pearl necklace around her neck. However, it made her collarbone look even more beautiful and exquisite. The corners of her collar and skirt were embroidered with large lotus flowers with white silk thread. As Jiujiu walked, the golden buyao swayed slightly and made a crisp sound. It was truly beautiful.
Seeing Jiujiu's appearance after dressing up, Huang Yixiao hugged Jiujiu's waist with jealousy and muttered in dissatisfaction: "I really don't want you to go."
Although he knew why Jiujiu was dressed so beautifully, when he thought of how many people would see Jiujiu's beauty, Huang Yixiao's heart felt particularly uncomfortable.
His wife was too beautiful and he had to worry about it.
The two held hands and rode a carriage to the palace.
What surprised Jiujiu was that she was familiar with the layout of the palace. As she went deeper, she was even more certain that she had been here before.
This doubt only disappeared when Jiujiu saw the emperor.
It wasn't that the emperor was very handsome, but that the emperor looked like someone. It wasn't Ain, but one of Jiujiu's targets.
Jiujiu had many targets in her strategy, and she could only remember a few of them. However, she could still remember their general appearance. However, she had never thought that she would see someone who looked very similar to her previous target again.
Because Jiujiu was originally from a small village, under the influence of the geographical environment, Chen Jiujiu wasn't very clear about the matters of the court. And Jiujiu was only thinking about Huang Yixiao's matter and didn't carefully inquire about the matters of the court. So when she saw the emperor, she froze.
When Steamed Bun told Jiujiu about this dynasty, Jiujiu froze again.
This was really a place she had been to before. According to their relationship, the emperor sitting at the head of the table should call her mother. No wonder he looked so similar to her target.
It was Jiujiu's first time encountering a child who used to be in her body during a mission. This feeling was particularly strange.
Even if she wasn't the one who gave birth to him, she had still raised him personally. She had accompanied him as he grew up, taught him, and even told him to focus on women.
However, this was the first time that Jiujiu was looking at her child as an outsider. Jiujiu's eyes couldn't help but sting.
Under Huang Yixiao's guidance, the two of them sat down. However, Jiujiu's eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of the Emperor. That was her child.
However, with her current appearance, she couldn't recognize him. After all, to him, she was just a stranger.
The Emperor looked at Jiujiu, who came with Huang Yixiao. He inexplicably felt that Jiujiu looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen Jiujiu before.
In an instant, he smiled and said: "This must be Madam Huang."
"Greetings to the Emperor." Jiujiu stood up and bowed.
When the Emperor saw this, he hurriedly let Jiujiu stand up. After seeing Jiujiu's delicate little face, he sincerely praised: "Madam Huang is truly a national beauty. No wonder my beloved official is so reluctant to part with you."
He even rejected Mei Shu 'er. It had to be known that General Mei had great power. If he married Mei Shu' er, his future would be a meteoric rise. However, Huang Yixiao rejected such a thing for Jiujiu. However, this made the Emperor particularly satisfied.
If Huang Yixiao really hid it from him and said that he had never married and married Mei Shu 'er, then he was a person who would do anything to climb up. The Emperor would have to think twice about whether he could use him.
The Emperor said a few words and announced the start of the banquet. In an instant, the sound of stringed and woodwind instruments came from the center of the stage.
Originally, Jiujiu was curious why Mei Shu 'er didn't come with such a good opportunity. However, after seeing Mei Shu' er sitting in the center of the stage playing the zither and singing, Jiujiu knew why Mei Shu 'er didn't come.
Mei Shu 'er's appearance wasn't bad and she was good at dressing up. She wore a light yellow gauze dress that accentuated her otherworldly appearance. Her makeup was especially appropriate. It was fresh and elegant and complemented her clothes. It really showed off every bit of her body. The officials below who hadn't married yet were already a little tipsy.
After all, Mei Shu 'er was the daughter of a minister who wasn't bad looking and had many talents. If they could marry her, it was needless to say that they would have a meteoric rise.
Having a beautiful woman to add to their fragrance was also a wonderful thing.
After she finished playing the song, Mei Shu 'er stood up and gracefully bowed. That soft waist and that exquisite figure made many hot-blooded men stare straight at her.
However, Huang Yixiao wasn't among those people.
Huang Yixiao was currently picking out fish bones for Jiujiu.
Jiujiu liked to eat fish, but she didn't like to pick out fish bones. Now, there was a sweet and sour fish dish on the table. Jiujiu was envious of it, but because of the fish bones, she kept a respectful distance. Huang Yixiao saw Jiujiu's greedy face but gave up because of the fish bones, so he personally picked out the fish bones for Jiujiu so that Jiujiu could eat without worry.
So many men present were looking at Mei Shu 'er, but Mei Shu' er's eyes were still looking at Huang Yixiao. When she saw Huang Yixiao gently and considerately picking out fish bones for Jiujiu, Mei Shu 'er was so angry that her eyes turned red.
She had already put down her status and face to beg him, but Huang Yixiao didn't accept her. However, he was so good to this woman from the countryside, which really made her angry.
Sensing that Mei Shu 'er was staring at Huang Yixiao, the Emperor's eyes darkened and he said, "Shu' er is really multi-talented. Reward her."
If it was any other time, Mei Shu 'er would definitely happily accept the reward, but today, she didn't thank the Emperor for his kindness. Instead, she said, "Shu' er doesn't ask for a reward, I only ask for Your Majesty's grace."
After Mei Shu 'er finished speaking, she kneeled on the ground and looked at the Emperor with sincere eyes, "Shu' er has been in love with Big Brother Huang for a long time. I beg Your Majesty to grant Shu 'er's wish."
Mei Shu 'er asked for a marriage in front of everyone. First, she knew that her father had a good relationship with the Emperor. She had already begged the Emperor without caring about her face, so the Emperor would definitely grant her a marriage. Second, Huang Yixiao couldn't refuse her in front of everyone.
How could other people not think of what Mei Shu 'er could think of? The Emperor's face instantly turned ugly, and the ministers who had a good impression of Mei Shu' er also showed a startled expression.
They weren't moved by Mei Shu 'er, but they were surprised that Mei Shu' er would make such a request.
When Huang Yixiao came today, he brought Jiujiu with him. Looking at the appearance of the two, it was obvious that they were deeply in love. She clearly knew that they were a loving couple, but she still wanted to interfere. She was a daughter of a noble family. It really made people's eyes pop out.
Although General Mei knew that Mei Shu 'er liked Huang Yixiao, he didn't expect her to do such a ridiculous thing. His face instantly turned black.
