graceful

The emperor's deep and majestic voice sounded, "My dear ministers, please stand up."

The banquet was carried out in exact accordance with the etiquette.

First, envoys from various countries presented gifts, and then officials came to celebrate the birthday. The sound of stringed instruments and orchestras rang out, and the atmosphere was filled with singing and dancing.

Tang Yu glanced in the direction of Zhao and Prime Minister Tang, with an evil smile on his face.

And Tang Wanrou, who was looking so glorious and smiling in front, I hope she can still smile later.

Tang Yu pretended to be unwell and coughed twice, and Ning Chen's attention immediately shifted to him.

"Yu'er, are you feeling unwell? Can I take you to rest?"

Tang Yu saw that Tang Wanrou's smile froze on her face. In a sight that Ning Chen couldn't see, Tang Wanrou glared at Tang Yu fiercely, with murderous intent in her eyes as real as substance.

Some time ago, she was busy with her face every day and had no time to take care of Tang Yu. She just asked her not to let Concubine Wan Qiangduo take away her favor.

Just now.

It seemed like something was beyond her expectations.

Tang Yu shrank his shoulders and looked in the direction of Tang Wanrou with fear in his eyes. Ning Chen followed her gaze and saw Tang Wanrou's sinister look which she had not yet retracted.

But soon, when Ning Chen looked over, Tang Wanrou's expression suddenly softened and her eyes were filled with smiles.

"Since my sister is not feeling well, Your Highness should take her to rest."

Tang Yu observed Zhao out of the corner of her eye, and when she saw that she was looking at him as she expected, a hint of success flashed in her eyes.

"No need. The Crown Princess is pregnant. Your Highness should just accompany her. I have two maids with me. I just want to go out for some fresh air."

Since Tang Yu said so, Ning Chen could only consider his current status. If he openly abandoned the Crown Princess who was pregnant and about to give birth to accompany a concubine.

That would undoubtedly be like roasting her on the fire.

Then he said with concern in his eyes, "Come back soon. If there is anything, ask the maid to come back to me. Do you hear me?"

Under Tang Wanrou's resentful gaze, Tang Yu nodded reluctantly, acting timid and cowardly.

"I know, Your Highness, don't worry."

Tang Yu took Xiaoyuan and Xiaotao away from the banquet.

She slowed down her pace and looked back barely perceptibly.

As expected, the sixth prince of the barbarian tribe also stood up from his seat, quietly avoided Ning Chen's sight while the ministers around him were toasting him, and followed her closely.

Of course there is another person.

The same is true for Zhao.

He seemed to be talking to Prime Minister Tang, but his eyes were on her.

Tang Yu raised the corners of his lips slightly.

I hope Zhao won't let her down and come out soon.

Tang Yu quickened his pace, and after a while, he walked into the quiet garden.

Almost all the servants in the palace were preparing for today's birthday banquet, so there were only dim lights in the garden, but it was pitch black in the dark, and the patrolling soldiers were not here.

Tang Yu winked at Xiao Yuan.

The little dot nodded and left quietly, moving around in the shadows to hide.

Xiao Tao whispered in Tang Yu's ear, "Master, that big fool is coming over here, his steps are quite hurried."

Tang Yu nodded.

Xiaotao's words had just fallen.

A rough voice came from behind, but it also carried a hint of youthful vigor that was unique to this age.

"Hey, beautiful lady, wait for me!"

Tang Yu's steps remained unchanged.

The sixth prince Abahai suddenly became anxious.

But I didn't dare to speak too loudly.

"Um, Zhan Yuan's concubine, wait for me, this prince has something to tell you.
