Marrying a wife and a concubine together? Wouldn't it be better to divorce and become the queen
Chapter 186: The same gift, who is deceiving the king?
A palace banquet was held on the birthday night.
Feng Qingluan attended the event in gorgeous attire.
Liao Luoling was waiting for her at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion. When he saw her come out, he exclaimed in surprise:
"Sister Qingluan, you are so beautiful."
Feng Qingluan used to dress casually and her makeup and hairstyle were mostly everyday.
Today is a formal palace banquet, and wearing palace dress makes her already beautiful face even more beautiful and charming, and her temperament is extraordinary.
Liao Luoling was wearing a light yellow dress today. Feng Qingluan smiled and said:
"You are also very cute."
Liao Luoling smiled and took her to the carriage:
"Sister Qingluan, let's go quickly, my cousin is waiting for us at the palace gate."
The carriage arrived at the palace gate. The moment Xie Jin saw Feng Qingluan getting off the carriage, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Liao Luoling had never seen her cousin show such joy on his face before, and teased:
"Cousin, you have never seen Sister Qingluan dressed like this, right? She is so beautiful! Sister Qingluan must be the most dazzling person at the palace banquet tonight."
Xie Jin raised his lips to smile:
"It's so beautiful, I can't take my eyes off it."
Faced with his straightforward praise, Feng Qingluan felt a little embarrassed.
At this time, several more carriages stopped one after another.
Xie Yan got off the carriage and saw Feng Qingluan and Xie Jin standing together.
When his eyes fell on Feng Qingluan, he was instantly attracted by her beauty and temperament. He stood there, staring at her intently.
He knew that Feng Qingluan was beautiful, but she had never been as stunning as she was tonight.
Xie Yanben was under house arrest and was not allowed to leave the palace. Today was Emperor Xia Ming's birthday banquet, and Concubine Ru pleaded in the palace before Emperor Xia Ming agreed to let him attend.
Di Manli also got off the carriage. Seeing Feng Qingluan's beauty and Xie Yan's obsession with her, she felt unhappy and reminded him:
"Your Highness, the Eighth Uncle is over there."
Xie Yan finally reacted and walked towards Xie Jin.
Di Manli wanted to pull him, but he ignored her. Di Manli suppressed her anger and followed him.
"Meet the Eighth Uncle."
Xie Yan's gaze was still on Feng Qingluan's face, filled with regret and reluctance.
Seeing that he was fascinated by Feng Qingluan, Xie Jin said:
"King Chu, where are you looking?"
After being touched by him, Xie Yan withdrew his gaze.
Di Manli walked over and saluted Xie Jin, then walked closer to look at Feng Qingluan. The beauty that came towards her made her jealous.
Another carriage arrived at the palace gate.
It is Prince Jing Xie Ji.
Following behind his carriage was Xiao Yu.
After Xiao Yu was beaten up by Xie Jin that day, he had been recuperating in Prince Jing's Mansion.
After getting off the carriage and seeing Xie Jin and Feng Qingluan, Xiao Yu was also amazed by Feng Qingluan's beauty today.
However, when enemies meet, their eyes are filled with jealousy. The pain in his body reminds him that it was because of Feng Qingluan that he was beaten by Xie Jin.
Xiao Yu had never been so humiliated in his life. He was beaten by someone and couldn't even fight back.
He is determined to get Feng Qingluan!
Xie Ji walked over and saluted Xie Jin:
"Greetings, Eighth Uncle."
Xiao Yu smiled, but his eyes were filled with piercing coldness as he walked up to the two of them, almost spitting out a sentence through his teeth:
"Prince Rong, Miss Feng, we meet again."
Xie Ji introduced them to the two:
"Eighth uncle, this is Xiao Yu, the sixth prince of Anyi. I heard that you two have met before, so I will not introduce you in detail."
Xiao Yu pulled the corner of his mouth:
"How could we have met before? We had a 'friendly' fight. The War God Prince of Daxia was very hospitable and left me with unforgettable memories. I would like to thank Prince Rong for giving me this opportunity."
Xie Jin's voice was light:
"Your Highness the Sixth Prince is too kind."
Hearing the gunpowder in their words, Xie Ji smiled and said:
"It's almost time, Eighth Uncle, Sixth Prince, let's go in."
Xie Yan was watching from the side, and perhaps it was the induction between the rivals in love, he noticed that there was something wrong with the way Xiao Yu looked at Feng Qingluan.
Xie Yan heard about the conflict between Feng Qingluan and Xiao Yu over a brothel girl some time ago.
Although he was under house arrest, he was aware of the developments in the capital. Could it be that during the two times they had contact, Xiao Yu fell in love with Feng Qingluan?
A group of people entered the palace with their own thoughts.
Emperor Xia Ming sat on the dragon throne, and envoys from other countries also took their seats.
Emperor Xia Ming had been severely beaten before, and the redness and swelling on his face had only completely disappeared in the past two days.
But the hidden pain in his body still made him endure it.
After he woke up, he immediately guessed that the person who broke into the Yangxin Palace and beat him up that night was Xie Jin.
His younger brother beat him up for a woman!
He will remember this grudge and will definitely get back at him one day!
The atmosphere in the hall was lively, and the envoys presented gifts to congratulate Emperor Xia Ming.
It was the prince's turn to present a gift. He walked into the hall with a smile on his face:
"Father, I have prepared a gift for you. This is a peerless elixir made by a mountain immortal. It is the Essence and Energy Combination Pill. I wish you good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the Southern Mountains. Someone, bring the elixir up."
Upon hearing that it was the Essence Healing Pill, Emperor Xia Ming's eyes widened and he looked excited. When he saw Xie Heng having someone bring the pill up, Emperor Xia Ming almost couldn't sit still and ordered Eunuch Yuan Chao to bring the pill to him.
"It is indeed the Qi-combining pill. I have been looking for this pill for a long time. I am very pleased with the gift from the Crown Prince."
Xie Heng's lips curled up when he received the compliment.
My father was so happy. It was not in vain that he went through so much trouble to get this pill.
"It is my honor to be liked by the emperor, father. The Essence and Energy Pill was made by a mountain immortal who selected hundreds of precious medicinal materials and spent ten years to refine. There is only one pill in the world that can prolong the life of the person who takes it and make him healthy and safe."
Emperor Xia Ming smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into slits.
He had been looking for the Essence Heqi Pill many years ago, and he sent out so many Dragon Shadow Guards but couldn't find it. He didn't expect that the prince would present it to him at this birthday banquet. How could he not be happy?
Emperor Xia Ming was delighted:
"Very good, Your Highness, you have worked hard for this gift."
Xie Heng cupped his hands and said, "As long as I can make you smile, what I have done is nothing."
After hearing this, Emperor Xia Ming praised the prince again.
Xie Heng looked at King Jing and King Chu proudly, with disdain in his eyes.
The Crown Prince presented gifts, followed by the King of Chu.
The prince's move was lavish, which won the heart of Emperor Xia Ming. Everyone was eagerly waiting to see what gift the prince, who was still in confinement, would send to impress everyone and please his father.
Xie Yan walked into the hall holding a brocade box:
"Father, the gift I want to give to you is also a Jingyuan Heqi Pill made by a mountain immortal."
As soon as he finished speaking, the lively atmosphere in the hall became noisy:
"What? The Qi-combining pill that the King of Chu sent was also given? Isn't it said that there is only one such pill in the world? How come the King of Chu also has one?"
"Yes, could it be that the gift one of them gave was fake? Who would dare to deceive His Majesty?"
The ministers' discussions were heard in the hall.
Upon hearing that Xie Yan's gift was also a Heqi Pill, Xie Heng looked like he was going to enjoy the show.
Feng Qingluan's curiosity was also aroused.
Xie Heng and Xie Yan started competing secretly. They chose the same gift, but whose pill was fake?
Who is deceiving the king?
