Chapter 204

At three o'clock, the night was thick.

All the officials, marquis Wang and Marquis Wang, were present. They presented birthday gifts to the Empress Dowager and kowtowed to her family. The hall was full of excitement and joy, and the Empress Dowager was even more happy.

The queen sat at the top of the Empress Dowager's side. Seeing that the official had retired after the ceremony, the next official hadn't come up yet, she quickly lowered her voice and said, "empress, King Jing hasn't come yet."

The Empress Dowager looked around the hall, and sure enough, there was no king Jing. The banquet was about to begin. He was clearly in the capital, so wouldn't he come to celebrate his birthday?

The Empress Dowager's face suddenly became a little ugly. She and the Queen chose several suitable girls in the family. They wanted to take advantage of today's grand meeting to let them get close to King Jing. Then she, the old woman, asked the emperor to marry her. Today is her 70th birthday, and the emperor would agree for the sake of filial piety.

But if King Jing doesn't come, their plan will fail.

The Empress Dowager turned to look at the emperor and said in a loud voice, "emperor, have you sent any errands to Yan'er?"

The emperor denied: "I haven't sent any errands to Yan'er recently. He asked me last time when he went to the palace what kind of birthday gift I would give him. I think he will come today."

After listening to the emperor's words, the Empress Dowager was calm and nodded with a smile: "that's good. I haven't looked at Yan'er for many days. I miss him strangely."

The Emperor didn't think so. He lived in the deep palace for a long time. Naturally, he understood that women's words could not be fully believed, especially those women in high positions. Every word and every thing they did had a special purpose.

The emperor seemed to scan the palace at random, and his eyes intentionally or unintentionally stayed behind Zhuo Zhonghai. Chang's clothes were gorgeous, and his smile was stiff. Beside her, there were two girls sitting. One was pretty, with a deep mind, and the other was more delicate, a little younger. A pair of beautiful eyes were constantly looking at the dignitaries in the palace, with a smile in the corner of her mouth, but the expression was cold.

His eyes fell on the girl's head. The younger one had exquisite hair ornaments on his black hair, especially the Magnolia hairpin inserted obliquely between his hair.

The emperor drew a sneer from the corner of his mouth and mocked in his eyes.

A carriage with King Jing's residence card stopped outside Wan'an hall. From the carriage, a young man in Royal costume jumped down. Under the moonlight, his handsome and matchless face was covered with a faint warm smile, which warmed people's hearts.

A pair of delicate white hands stretched out from the car curtain, gently played the falling bright pearl curtain, a beautiful face like ink painting stretched out from the car, combed the current flying bun, the soft and bright hair behind the head was long and slender, the eyebrows were like distant mountains, the eyes were like stars, the nose was beautiful and straight, the lips were not red, and the rouge on the cheek side was more delicate and beautiful.

He looked up at her. The water's light green embroidered bamboo and Confucian skirt, with a wide waist and brocade, was as long as the ground, which made her slim waist and straight legs.

He really wanted to hide her from other men.

"I'm beginning to regret it!" He put his hand around her waist and lifted her from the carriage.

Her slender and powerful fingers are tightly around her waist, and the warmth of her palms is on her skin through the clothing materials. Her heart is bumped lightly, and her pretty face is red.

"What do you regret?" She asked, pretending to be indifferent.

His fingers gently pinched in her waist, the laughter was bright, but the voice was low and charming: "regret not to bring you here, your beauty will make people jealous."
