Chapter 16
Chapter 16
As soon as King Cheng's guard of honor entered Beijing, the father who was the governor of Yuzhou at that time and the No. 30 seventh concubine of the third prince led all the officials of Yuzhou to welcome them out.
After exchanging polite greetings, the Governor of Yuzhou invited King Cheng and several of his generals to a banquet.
Looking at the smiling face of the governor of Yuzhou, Song Xuan who was following Shang Qingyao couldn't help muttering.
"What's wrong with Yuzhou Inspector's forehead? It's a big wound. It looks like someone beat you up on your face."
The governor of Yuzhou heard this whisper and his body trembled, only feeling that his bones began to ache again.That Rakshasa who was as beautiful as a fairy yesterday, beat people only on painful places.And that Rakshasa has no scruples, even hitting his face.
If it wasn't for him still being able to use him, the governor of Yuzhou had no doubt that he would directly maim himself.
Thinking about it this way, the governor of Yuzhou's bones and fat body began to ache again.
The banquet was held at Mingyuetai, which is a very famous building in Yuzhou. According to legend, an official in the previous dynasty dreamed of the goddess of the moon, and built Mingyuetai to chase her.Therefore, Mingyuetai is also called "Wangxiantai" by many people.
Mingyuetai has a rich history, but after the governor of Yuzhou took office, it became a place for feasting and entertainment.
At the banquet, the governor of Yuzhou was so drunk that he squinted his eyes slightly, forgetting what happened.Fortunately, the wound on his body that grimaced in pain reminded him to get down to business in time.
The governor of Yuzhou winked at the officials below, and immediately some officials toasted to King Cheng.
"At present, there are beautiful wines, beautiful scenery, singing and dancing, how can we not be accompanied by beauties?"
Cheng Wang played with the wine bottle and showed a playful smile, which was really contemptuous, as if he had seen through the ghostly tricks these people were about to perform.
The governor of Yuzhou said with a smile: "I have a beautiful woman here, with extraordinary appearance, I have admired His Royal Highness Cheng Wang for a long time." He said with a tacit ambiguous smile, "It's better to let her serve His Highness tonight."
Shang Qingyao didn't say yes, nor did he say no.He glanced down, except for the few generals who followed him, the rest were either the secret work of the First Prince, or the subordinates of the Third Prince, or the guys who served vegetarian meals under the governor of Yuzhou.
In the end, he set his eyes on the governor of Yuzhou, with a half smile in his eyes.
The governor of Yuzhou felt chills down his spine from his gaze, but he still bit the bullet and ordered someone to bring that peerless beauty up—he really had to do this, after all, his life was still in the hands of that beautiful Rakshasa .If he didn't follow her orders, he might die of poisonous hair.
Anyway, His Royal Highness Duanwang also ordered him to wait for the opportunity to kill Chengwang. If that Rakshasa can succeed, then he has completed the task.If it is not successful, His Royal Highness Cheng Wang will ask, and it has nothing to do with him - anyway, he is coercing.
The governor of Yuzhou, Ruyi Abacus, clinked and looked outside full of joy. He saw two maidservants in pink clothes leading the way with a lamp, and a tall beauty in a pomegranate red dress slowly approaching, causing everyone present to suffocate.
It is indeed a rare beauty in the world.
Even Shang Qingyao couldn't help clenching his wine glass tightly, revealing some emotions.But this was not because he was shocked by the beauty of the visitor, but because he was surprised that the person in front of him was actually an old friend from Dijingli.
Not long ago, he left Xie Tangru, the heir of Duke Wei without saying goodbye.
Although his appearance has changed slightly, Shang Qingyao will not admit his mistake.Wei Guogong's son has a unique temperament, and no one in the world can imitate it exactly.
But Xie Tangru should fulfill his wish at Baiyun Temple now, instead of appearing in this capacity at Mingyue Terrace at this malicious Hongmen banquet.
Shang Qingyao said in a deep voice, "Come here."
Xie Tangru walked over, but he didn't recognize Shang Qingyao at a glance. Shang Qingyao's appearance was very different from when he was in the imperial capital, and there was no need to hide his deliberate restraint at the moment. "The difference is too big.
What's more, Xie Tangru never thought of these two people going together.
All eyes are on them.Many people thought to themselves, it really is a hero who is sad to be a beauty, and seeing such a beauty, even King Cheng would be moved by it.But Cheng Wang is not a character of pity and pity, some people can't help but feel sorry for this beauty.
Talented scholars and beautiful ladies are a good story.
But Cheng Wang has never been a romantic talent, but a warrior like them who civil officials fear and disdain to be with them-although Cheng Wang also despises these wine bags and rice bags.
But Xie Tangru and Shang Qingyao didn't have any idea of "talented scholars and beautiful ladies" in their eyes. Among the colorful lights and flickering lights, they seemed to only see each other in each other's eyes.
Xie Tangru half-bent his eyes, and calculated the success of killing King Cheng now. After some calculations, he regretted giving up and sat quietly beside King Cheng.
His snow-white and slender neck shone like jade under the faint candlelight; his crow-feather-like eyelashes were distinct, hiding a pair of jet-black pupils.It was the first time for Shang Qingyao to look at him so closely, and he couldn't help but look away after being slightly stunned.
The tone is deliberately softened, like a minor tune in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, which touches the heartstrings.
"His Royal Highness King Cheng."
Saying this title in the softest tone, Xie Tangru felt it was funny in his heart, becoming a king becomes a king, with such a title, if he doesn't become a king, who will become a king?
Shang Qingyao looked at him fixedly, his eyes flickering, suddenly threw down his wine glass and stood up, without waiting for everyone's reaction, he picked up Xie Tangru, walked straight out, and said in a loud voice: "The beauty you gave me is very suitable for me. The good night is short, this king will take his leave first."
Everyone smiled understandingly and laughed together, but no one advised Shang Qingyao to stay longer.
The governor of Yuzhou was relieved that there was no trace.
But at last the Rakshasa was sent away.
Xie Tangru buried half of his face in front of Shang Qingyao's chest, secretly clenched his palms, and tried his best to restrain the killing intent surging in his heart.
... If King Cheng really dares to practice "a good night but a short life" on him, he will definitely let Cheng Wang understand that not only a good night, but also a short life.
Sensing the tense and stiff body in his arms, Shang Qingyao sighed slightly in his heart.The governor of Yuzhou searched for beauties everywhere, Xie Tangrusheng was good-looking, and he was not a native of Yuzhou, so maybe he was taken as an ordinary person by those who did not know his identity and offered to flatter him, and snatched them over.
It's just that I don't know how I mistook him for a woman...
Shang Qingyao's thoughts flew out slightly, and he came back to his senses after a while, and whispered to comfort the young man in his arms: "Don't be afraid, I won't move you."
Thinking of this person who grew up in the imperial capital with a thousand pets and a hundred pets, with a noble status and no suffering, but now he has fallen to this point.Shang Qingyao couldn't help feeling a little softer in his heart.
The man in the arms seemed to relax a little after his words.
Shang Qingyao was a little dazed, it was already summer, but there was a faint fragrance of crabapple on the tip of Xie Tangru's hair, as if the breeze of late spring was still blowing.
He collected himself and hugged him tighter.
After arriving at the place where he was staying, Shang Qingyao finally put him down after completely cutting off prying eyes.
Xie Tangru stared at him with a pair of black and white pupils, and suddenly tilted his head, his bad thoughts suddenly came up, his hands wrapped around his neck, and his face was pressed against his neck, as if he was extremely intimate and dependent.
——If Shang Qingyao was like his two elder brothers, Xie Tangru would definitely not be like this, even if he took a second look, he would feel his eyes dirty.But since His Royal Highness Cheng Wang is an upright gentleman, Xie Tangru couldn't help being joking.
Shang Qingyao froze as expected.
Xie Tangru's lips brushed against his neck, causing a slight shudder, and the feeling of touch was infinitely magnified at this moment.
Soft and warm.There is also a bit of inexplicable daydream mixed in.
Shang Qingyao froze for a moment, then put the person down: "...I just offended you just now, and I really did it as a last resort, please forgive me."
Xie Tangru tilted his head and showed a beautiful smile. His face is very dominant in many cases, and he easily wins the love or infatuation of others.Among his group of cronies, half of them came here because of his looks.Although Xie Tangru doesn't rely on this appearance, he doesn't mind using it occasionally to better achieve his goals.
"What if I don't forgive?"
"If you don't forgive me - this is your choice, and I can't change your mind." Shang Qingyao said.
Xie Tangru laughed, and suddenly felt that His Royal Highness Cheng Wang was not as annoying as he thought at first.
If it wasn't for what was reflected in that dream, I'm afraid he would have liked His Royal Highness Cheng Wang quite a lot.
Xie Tangru leaned close to his ear, breathed on the pinna, and smiled lightly, "Your words are very funny, if that's the case, then I can forgive you."
This is too dangerous a distance.
Shang Qingyao took a step back calmly, "You stay in my room today, and I will send you away tomorrow."
Xie Tangru's smiling face froze slightly.Of course, he didn't want Shang Qingyao to send him away immediately after spending so much time.
The smile faded from his face, and he felt bored. "Okay." But whether he can be successfully sent away at that time is not entirely up to King Cheng.
Shang Qingyao heaved a sigh of relief without showing any traces. When he was in Duke Wei's mansion, although the prince was a bit stubborn, he was still reasonable. After seeing each other for a few days, Xie Tangru became more and more vile and unbearable.Shang Qingyao opened his mouth to call him, but paused for a moment before remembering that he should not know Xie Tangru's name by now.
"I haven't asked you what to call me yet?"
Xie Tangru thought about it, his real name must not be used.He said, "Call me Ah Fei."
The first name given to him by Mrs. Wei Guogong, but after his mother died, no one called him that name anymore.This also means that no one knows that "A Fei" is Xie Tangru.
It doesn't matter if you tell Shang Qingyao, anyway, when Shang Qingyao dies, it will still be the same as before, no one knows the name.
Shang Qingyao looked at him with deep eyes, nodded for a long time, and called his name softly.
"A Fei."
These two words were read out by him in a low voice, inexplicably a little affectionate.
