Chapter 350 Plum Blossom Appreciation Banquet
Su Chenyu noticed that something was wrong with Handan's expression and guessed that Handan didn't want to see Furong getting close to the Black Mountain Underground Palace. This was exactly what she wanted.
"It seems that the Holy Envoy Handan came to Xixia this time for the Black Mountain Underground Palace."
Handan's face looked a little grim: "Now it seems that the Black Mountain Underground Palace has already chosen Furong."
"Handan, why do you have to worry about who you chose in the Black Mountain Underground Palace? As long as the Black Mountain Underground Palace is destroyed, you can have an explanation when you return to Nanyue, right?"
Handan was a little surprised: "Destroyed the Black Mountain Underground Palace?"
Su Chenyu's idea was too crazy, but Handan had a feeling that as long as Su Chenyu wanted to do it, it would be successful.
"Princess Fengyi, I am different from you. Holy Envoy, I am still a slave. I don't have the courage to burn my boats." Handan said with some self-mockery, "But people have to pay something to survive. So if you want to destroy the Black Mountain Underground Palace, count me in."
Su Chenyu thought Handan would back off, but after hearing her say that, she felt a little complicated. Regardless of their identities, everyone was trying their best to survive.
"Last time, Furong wanted to use the bandits to get rid of you, but failed. Do you think she would give up easily?"
After Su Chenyu's reminder, Handan understood what she meant: "You mean, she wants to harm me?"
"At the plum blossom viewing banquet, I will have Ginkgo follow you secretly. If there is anything wrong with you, you must tell Ginkgo immediately. We will deal with it later."
Handan quickly stood up and saluted Su Chenyu: "Princess Fengyi, if it weren't for you and Prince Consort Baili, I might have died in the hands of those bandits. Today you are willing to help me again, Handan is very grateful, if there is a place where Handan can be of use in the future, Handan will never refuse."
After discussing these things, Handan left.
Baili Yanqing closed the door: "Can she be trusted?"
"The point is not whether she can be trusted, but that she is the most valued Holy Envoy by the Saint of Nanyue. That is enough." What Su Chenyu wanted to do was to drag Nanyue into the chaotic situation of Western Xia. One Furong was far from enough.
As the temperature in Xixia dropped sharply, the whole of Xiajing seemed to be plunged into a rare tranquility. Su Chenyu had a rare few days of peace, and soon, she had a plum blossom viewing banquet.
This plum blossom viewing banquet was organized by Concubine Li and Concubine De. However, Concubine Li was extremely afraid of the cold and rarely left the palace, so this plum blossom viewing banquet was mainly organized by Concubine De.
The plum blossom viewing banquet was held in the Imperial Garden. Because it was too cold in the morning, it officially started around noon.
Envoys from various countries came to the palace one after another and went to the Imperial Garden under the guidance of palace servants.
In the imperial garden, red plum blossoms are in full bloom, and walking into them is like being in a red sea. The air is filled with the faint cool fragrance of plum blossoms, which makes one feel relaxed and happy.
The seats for everyone were placed under the plum trees. After they sat down, one or two petals would occasionally fall, which was very elegant.
A small stove was placed on the table, with wine on it. In this way, the wine would always be hot and could drive away the cold when drunk.
It can be seen that Concubine De put a lot of thought into organizing the plum blossom viewing banquet.
Concubine De arrived early and had been instructing the palace servants to entertain envoys from various countries.
