C48 Halloween

"A Li Yue that cannot stand looking at others, it's fine if I don't look at him." Gu Qingli finally removed his hand from his palm and quickly left his bedroom.

Gu Qingli subconsciously felt that his hands were a little cold, touching the hands that he had just held, he vaguely recalled the cool sensation on his palms.

She was surprised, looking back to where she had left from. She only saw the dark blue curtain of clouds gently swaying, and there seemed to be a pair of foundation cloud heads faintly peeking out from under the curtain. He was still looking at her from behind?

No, he had a bunch of main lateral concubine and wives, even if Xin Ziyao and the others had evil intentions, the spies that were sent to his side were all gone, and there were at least Chief Imperial Concubine and Madame Jia, yet he just ignored them all, just to pick up a woman who was treating him?

Thinking about his Chief Imperial Concubine, Gu Qingli felt an inexplicable sense of grievance in his heart. Where did he put his Chief Imperial Concubine?

She was actually troubled by this damn prince's disregard for the Chief Imperial Concubine. No matter what identity he had, she had never thought of having anything to do with this bastard, right?

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. She stopped herself from thinking about it any longer. She only had one thought in her mind, which was to get to the corners of the city as soon as possible, cure the poison in his body, and then leave him.

Gu Qingli tidied himself up and changed into a new set of clothes. After carefully examining himself in the mirror, he had a nagging feeling that something was missing.

"Princess, the Prince is waiting for you outside. The carriage is already prepared, I need to hurry you up."

As she entered the palace tonight to participate in the Emperor's birthday banquet, on such a grand occasion, he actually did not draw her eyebrows like he did in the past. The incomparably exquisite and cold and gorgeous face in the mirror was like a dragon drawn in the sky, missing the most important part.

Yu Ying stood at the back and pulled on Gu Qingli's skirt, praising her: "Esteemed wangfei, you are truly beautiful, so beautiful that it can topple nations."

Yu Li smirked and praised her as well.

However, Gu Qingli completely ignored them, and slowly walked to the side of the horse carriage with a depressed mood, and looked at the horse carriage.

Xiao Yixiu who was already waiting inside the carriage lifted up the corner of the curtain, his eyes sweeping the place, and saw a lady dressed in a misty purple muslin slowly approaching. Her embroidered shoes were only able to point out slightly, becoming a lotus flower with every step she took, like a wave.

What Yu Ying drew for her was a crescent moon shaped eyebrows, with a curve like a crescent moon, bringing out a trace of a warm and gentle elegant charm, which added a touch of gentleness to her cold and prideful expression.

Three thousand strands of black hair was like a painting of a face. It was so elegant and graceful, yet it gave birth to a thought that was lacking in his heart.

Unfortunately, she was not Li Yue.

Unfortunately, those crescent moon-like eyebrows didn't suit her domineering temperament.

Why does life always have such a flaw, just like this emperor who had planted the wangfei by his side, no matter how beautiful and charming she was, she could not truly become the person resting next to Xiao Yixiu.

The Longevity Festival was one of the most sacred banquets in the imperial family. The princes entered the palace the day before their birthday to extend the emperor's birthday. They could stay in the palace for the night and participate in the official birthday banquet the next day.

For such an important festival, even the princes who were released or in combat had to return to the palace. As such, the Prince Yan who was serving as the royal camp's command during the northern border's defense had to return to the palace ahead of time.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace. Xiao Yixiu helped Gu Qingli off the carriage, and the two of them slowly walked along the White Jade Imperial Road.

This was not the first time Gu Qingli had entered the palace, but he still felt a bit of reverence for the palace's majestic, stern, and majestic appearance.

The splendor of gold and jade revealed the extravagance and coldness of the imperial family. Everyone could not help but think of the brutality of the struggle for power behind the lofty throne.

"Fifth Emperor!" Following the voice of a young man, Gu Qingli unintentionally looked over when he heard the sound. He didn't think that he would bump into a prince on this vast and wide imperial road.

Not far away, a young man dressed in a red dress with eight pythons embroidered on it with golden threads walked over. His red pill robe caused one's eyes to light up, and unlike Gu Qingli's deep red robe, it was extremely red.

After all, he was only eighteen or nineteen years old. Even though he carried the noble aura of a prince, he had still not lost his youthful temperament. His bright peach blossom eyes, which carried the intent of a na?ve child, swept a circle around Gu Qingli's body as he smiled: "This person must be Fifth Imperial Sister-in-Law?"

Originally, Gu Qingli felt disgust towards these princes, who were willing to do anything to get revenge. However, the young man with a harmless smile in front of her made her unable to bear to look at him with disgust. He was as clear as an unpolished jade.

"It's me." It was rare for her to reveal a trace of a light smile. Like a cool breeze and a light moon, it brushed against a person's heart, causing it to feel slightly cold and soft.

The young man looked at her absent-mindedly for a moment, and then smiled, like a hundred flowers blooming in full bloom. He was even more beautiful than a woman: "Fifth Imperial Sister-in-Law, you can call me Yi Yan."

Yi Yan! Even Xiao Yixiu had never allowed her to call him by his name before!

If it was anyone else, they would have thought that Xiao Yiyan was a frivolous person, lacking the noble aura of a prince.

Thus, the three of them walked towards the Sky Bearing Hall where the birthday banquet was being held. They only heard the laughter and conversation between Xiao Yiyan and Xiao Yiyan, as though they were old friends, and had no intention of greeting each other.

Xiao Yixiu kept quiet all the way. The fate between people was always so strange. Some people were so close to each other, while others were so close to each other that they didn't know what the ending would be between him and the wangfei.

She seemed to have ignored her own posture, talking happily with Xiao Yiyan, with a face full of hatred for him, causing Xiao Yiyan, who had originally been affectionate towards her brother, to forget his purpose in coming to the palace door to welcome him, and only have this sister-in-law in his eyes.

"Princess, the Sky Bearing Hall is right in front of us. Xiao Yixiu finally opened his mouth leisurely.

It was only at this time that Gu Qingli felt that his originally light and persistent hand had already become tightly clenched, to the point that his fingernail had already formed a shallow imprint on her palm.

Although it was not painful, but to Xiao Yixiu, who had an indomitable personality, it was already an expression of loss of control.

Xiao Yiyan also couldn't help but to take light steps, his expression became much more solemn and serious, even the smile lines at the corner of his eyes became lighter.

Gu Qingli looked to the side and met Xiao Yixiu's flowing gaze with that cold and clear gaze which had been replaced by a deep and unfathomable meaning. Based on her understanding of him, he was in a rather bad mood right now.

Xiao Yixiu slowed down his steps. Holding Gu Qingli tightly, he could only look at Xiao Yiyan who was in front of him to distance himself from them. Only then, did he say a few words in a low voice: "Gu Qingli! No matter what you think, you will always be this king's wangfei. This identity of yours is like a brand in your bloodline, something that can never be removed. "

Then he lifted his eyelids, and under the long black eyelashes, there was a chill in his eyes, and he tightened his grip on her wrist.

"Your Highness, are you saying that your reward for the poison still flows in my blood?" Gu Qingli's voice was calm and cold, the counterattack in her eyes was like a burning flame, unyielding and facing him.

"Thank you for reminding me over and over again how I should be grateful to you for controlling my freedom with poison." She shook off his hand and walked on alone.
