I took the heater and hesitated in place for a long time, but still didn't wait to return to Bixiu. I was afraid that she would think that I had sent the banquet and rush there herself.

After thinking about it, I decided to send it there. At worst, I would have someone bring it to Yao Yingxue and then leave secretly.

I made up my mind, so I walked towards the garden.

Only along the way did I realize that Yao Yingxue had really decorated Shangyang Palace in an exquisite and elegant way. There were bright lights everywhere, and all kinds of lanterns were hung on the treetops and under the eaves. They were exquisite and beautiful, reflecting the sky.

The bright crescent moon makes Shangyang Palace more like a brilliant galaxy.

But I don’t know how many undercurrents are hidden under this seemingly calm Milky Way.

After passing the flower path, you can see a prosperous scene ahead.

It has already fallen into the night, and the garden is still brightly lit. Countless eunuchs and maids are walking among the crowd carrying jade liquid and fine wine. At this moment, the atmosphere of the dinner has reached a climax. Everyone is toasting and drinking, drinking and drinking, laughing and chatting.

Extraordinary.

I stood far away, surrounded by guards and maids. The first thing I saw was the emperor sitting in the seat.

Today, Pei Ji is a thin and pale middle-aged man. His health has always been poor. Since entering the palace, he has often heard about the emperor's illness, but rarely heard about consultations at the imperial hospital. This is because he believes in Taoism and has heard about the inner palace.

There is also a warlock who is always with him, meditating and refining elixirs all day long in order to seek immortality.

Sitting next to him is Queen Yin.

This queen was not the emperor's original wife, but she was given the title of virtuous concubine three years after the previous queen died of illness. From then on, she was the mother of the emperor. Even though she is nearly fifty years old, her skin is still smooth and clean.

With affectionate eyes and windy eyebrows, she is a rare beauty.

Prince Pei Yuanxiu's beauty is as good as that of a heavenly being, and it is also thanks to his mother who is so beautiful.

At this moment, he was sitting upright under the emperor's left hand. He was still dressed in white clothes like snow, with clear and picturesque eyebrows, but his expression was not as leisurely as usual. His eyes were always moving among the crowd, as if he was looking for something.

.

At this time, a glass of wine that shimmered with amber luminous light was handed to him. Pei Yuanxiu turned around and saw that it was the Crown Princess Nangong Lizhu who smiled at him. Her smile was like a flower. In an instant, the entire night banquet lost its color. Pei Yuanxiu accepted with a smile.

Come here and drink it all.

Nangong Lizhu looked at him, her eyes flowing to the opposite side of them, but she only glanced at him.

Opposite them is His Highness Pei Yuanhao.

Since that day, I haven't seen him again. He is still as cold as usual. He looked at the couple across from him with a silent expression on his face, drinking one cup after another. Yao Yingxue on the side didn't see anything, only looked nervously.

Looking at the reactions of the emperor and the queen, it seems that he is afraid that if they are not satisfied, he will suffer.

Seeing this scene, I felt a sense of panic.

So I stood on tiptoe gently, wanting to call a little palace maid to come over and bring the heater to Yao Yingxue, and then leave quickly.

Unexpectedly, when I just raised my head, I found that Queen Yin raised her head, and her slender eyes met my gaze. Her eyes were sharp, as if she looked into my heart all of a sudden.

"That palace maid, what are you doing standing there?"
