Upon hearing this, Zuo Yexuan raised her eyebrows in disdain.
I thought to myself: My little niece, the bad nature of men is something you cannot understand even if you are a little god.
She had already known from Jiang Tiantian's inner voice that Murong Lie had loved Murong Yue when he was young.
In this case, even if Xu Shilin was found as a substitute later.
However, the failure of courtship in youth is still a regret.
What you can’t get will always beat.
This regret will also be deeply buried in Murong Lie's heart.
Therefore, Murong Yue doesn't even need to do this.
She just needs to stand there and quietly express her feelings. She believes that Murong Lie will immediately fall in love with her to death.
But, does Murong Lie really love Murong Yue?
Zuo Yexuan curled her lips and sneered in disdain in her heart.
The most ruthless are the imperial family.
If you believe that the emperor loves a woman deeply from beginning to end, that would be the biggest joke.
As soon as Murong Lie stood up, he was met with the surprised gazes of the civil and military officials, and then he reacted.
He coughed twice and sat down quickly.
"Well, well done! Reward! I'll give you a big reward!"
Murong Lie waved his hand majestically, and his bad mood caused by the previous setback at the hands of Zuo Yexuan became much brighter.
The moon, his moon is here.
Back then, he fell in love with Yue'er at first sight because of this dance.
Now, his Yue'er dances for him again. Could it be that... Yue'er has finally realized that she is good enough?
After all, as the king of a country, how could he be inferior to that pretty boy Jiang Junfan?
It must be that Jiang Junfan who used sweet words to deceive Yue'er.
If there were too many people at this moment, Murong Lie really wanted to run down and ask them in detail.
"Thank you, Your Majesty..." The dancers bowed respectfully one after another and then left the stage in an orderly manner.
Only Murong Yue, who was dressed in black, glanced at Murong Lie with tenderness before leaving.
Murong Lie felt a shock all over his body and licked his dry lips.
He had never seen such a charming moon before.
The look in her eyes when she left was like a feather.
It gently brushed across Murong Lie's heart, making him feel numb.
Murong Lie had no interest in watching the following performances.
Some even feel like sitting on pins and needles.
Fortunately, not long after, the chief eunuch beside Murong Lie came back to report after visiting the empress dowager.
Murong Lie's eyes lit up when he heard this.
As he listened to the eunuch's whispered report, his eyes couldn't help but frequently sweep over Jiang Qingqing, who was calmly drinking tea and teasing the child not far away.
This woman is so lucky!
What a pity, that is an elixir that can restore youth.
Hey, mother is really...
Murong Lie sighed in his heart.
Finally, he stood up, raised a glass towards everyone, and said with a smile.
"The Queen Mother is ill. I will be back soon. Please feel free to do as you please."
Upon hearing this, all the ministers were impressed and said to each other that the emperor's filial piety towards the empress dowager was truly evident.
"Queen, please host the New Year banquet first." Murong Lie smiled at Zuo Yexuan.
Zuo Yexuan nodded and stood up to see him off with an expressionless face.
But in his heart he curled his lips in disdain.
The dog emperor, horse, is he eager to sow seeds?
If he hadn't been such a playboy, he wouldn't have reached middle age with more than one child.
At this moment, Murong Yue, with her face covered by a black veil, came out of the New Year Banquet Palace. She stretched out her hand to call Caiyun, lowered her head and whispered a few words in her ear.
"Master, in this way...are we really okay?" Caiyun looked a little hesitant.
"There's no turning back for me, just go ahead and do it."
"Besides, she's enjoyed my grace for over a decade, so it's time for her to face reality..."
The corners of Murong Yue's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sneer.
Caiyun went down as she was told.
Murong Yue stood there for a long time, then turned around and looked into the distance.
When Murong Lie came out, he saw her back gazing into the distance, like a banished immortal.
"How dare you! You don't even bow when you see the emperor?" The eunuch next to Murong Lie shouted, bringing the two back to reality.
Murong Yue immediately turned around, and a mist suddenly condensed in her clear eyes.
She looked at Murong Lie with deep affection and longing.
"Cousin, what happened in the past was not what Yue'er had in mind."
"Yue'er can explain. I beg you, cousin, to listen to Yue'er."
Murong Yue knelt down with a plop, her posture very humble.
She had rejected him so arrogantly before, but now she was so humble, which would surely greatly satisfy the emperor.
Sure enough, Murong Lie's eyes lit up when he heard that.
"Eunuch Xue, bring her to my imperial study."
Soon, Murong Yue was taken to the imperial study.
In the room, at first one could faintly hear the woman's soft sobbing and mumbling.
Then a tender confession.
Finally, there were bursts of moans in the house...
Eunuch Xue was no longer surprised by this.
When Your Majesty was young, after handling official business, he liked to fight with others here for three hundred rounds.
Sometimes when he is in a good mood, he can even have sex with several women.
In recent years, Your Majesty's health is not as good as it was in his prime, so such absurd things have become much less common.
But today...eh,
Eunuch Xue could only sigh, waved his hand to ask everyone to stay away, and he himself stood loyally in front of the imperial study.
…
On the other side, the lively and bustling atmosphere of the annual banquet is in full swing.
It started with an ordinary song and dance performance.
Next, the ladies from prominent families showed off their talents.
