Volume 1 Chapter 178: Sure enough, the masters are fighting
Following the eunuchs' high-pitched calls, what came into Su Muyan's sight was the emperor and empress, who had been controlled for a long time, walking into the hall in an upright manner.
At this time, I looked around and found that other people had not noticed that this person had been controlled, like a puppet.
Of course it was Su Ran who was serving the Queen. She was probably the only person present who knew about it.
It’s a pity that Su Ran’s identity destined her not to be the first person to discover this matter.
As the saying goes, a tree that stands out in the forest will be cut down. No one is stupid enough to be the first to stick out.
Besides, this matter is too unbelievable and concerns the royal family. It is really inappropriate for Su Ran to reveal it.
In the main hall, there were quite a few people who came to celebrate the birthday today. Those who rarely gathered together on weekdays were all invited here. What's more, there were also quite a few envoys from other countries in the main hall at this moment.
Of course, the people mentioned in the intelligence that he had obtained in advance were naturally among this group.
Although Su Muyan was in the space, she had already met those people through the jade pendant.
Naturally, he saw the woman sitting between them. At first glance, she was indeed charming and extremely beautiful.
As he was preparing himself and carefully examining the things, he suddenly heard the eunuch loudly say, "The Queen Mother has arrived!"
These words made the originally lively scene suddenly quiet down, and everyone knelt respectfully, waiting for the arrival of the empress dowager.
Sure enough, not long after, Su Muyan finally saw what kind of person this empress dowager who died in everyone's memory was.
But at this moment, there was an even greater doubt lingering in my mind: why didn't he come out earlier or later, but chose to appear at such an important time point?
You know, at this moment, if he manipulated Endy in front of everyone and announced something not so good, he would have no chance of saving the situation at all.
I was already worried about something unexpected happening, but I didn't expect that the person most likely to cause an accident would still show up at the scene.
Originally, Su Muyan had been certain that the Queen Mother was destined not to appear at this banquet, but she didn't know what went wrong. She suddenly changed her usual behavior, and it was obvious that she had carefully dressed up before coming out.
Ever since she appeared, I have been keeping an eye on her and I finally discovered the clue.
Although the empress dowager had dressed up carefully at this moment, her hair had turned white. Although she looked radiant, she still could not hide the signs of aging.
But from her every gesture, you can still tell how glorious she was before. It is said that time never defeats beauty, but this appearance has finally experienced many years of rain, snow, wind and frost, and there will still be some traces left on it.
Su Muyan noticed that since she came to the banquet, the first person she looked at was not the emperor, the protagonist, but a seemingly casual glance at the woman sitting among the foreign envoys.
Although it was just a casual glance, Su Muyan naturally saw a different meaning in it because she was staring at her all the time.
If I was still wondering what her purpose was before, now I can guess a little.
Yes, after all, this situation and this scene are exactly the same as the ones she saw a few years ago. How could she not be moved at all?
Maybe she didn't come here to congratulate, but wanted to see with her own eyes the things she experienced back then!
Afterwards, although he had already taken his seat, surrounded by the crowd, the singing and dancing had already begun below.
It was another round of insincere greetings to each other. As they toasted each other, it was hard to tell how much sincerity or falsehood there was. It was no longer possible to tell the real from the fake, the fake from the real.
But all this will not affect the interest of those sitting above in how things will develop next.
At this time, Su Muyan was like a bystander, capturing everyone's expressions and eyes very accurately.
Not only did he sigh silently in his heart: "Yes, no matter whether you are in the emperor's house or live in the emperor's house, you have seen a lot of the intrigues and deceptions in the palace."
"Of these, sincerity is the hardest to tell. Who cares if you've had it before?"
It was not until the beginning of the banquet that Su Muyan once again felt the Queen Mother's vague scrutiny of the group.
This time, he was extremely confident that his guess was correct, but what he could not have imagined was which force was behind the scenes fanning the flames.
Similar scenes, similar choices, and who knows if the human and the Queen Mother will have a deep affection and do something unexpected tonight.
This is unknown, but what I know now is that if I want to make him reveal his true intentions, I must break through his psychological defenses.
Otherwise, just based on the fact that he became the final king in this deep palace, he would not be a reckless person.
I must not underestimate the other party. I have to be careful about this matter. If I am caught by the other party and alert them, it will be extremely difficult for me to find out who is behind this.
When I used the space to check before, I should have thought that this person was a fresh, unworldly and unfathomable person, but did I ever expect that she would come here rashly today?
Unusual behavior must have an unusual purpose. It seems that I have to go to that desolate place again tonight.
Maybe the secret is hiding right in front of everyone's eyes, but no one knows it.
But I don’t know whether the foreign woman accepted by the emperor today will live to see the sunrise the next day?
Or is this just part of the plan, and they will eventually join forces? This is something that no one knows.
And according to the information passed to him by his own Blood Roman, it is said that even their birthplaces are exactly the same.
This is more interesting. Either they join forces to fight the enemy, and there will naturally be some unclear tricks behind this, or one of them will be the final winner and the other will be eliminated.
But who set up this incomprehensible game? This is what we should be most concerned about.
