Don’t Spoil Me, General - C137

Nian An glanced at Yulixiao, but didn’t dare reply loudly. She carefully rolled up her lily hair to expose her elegant and beautiful neck, then wore a golden necklace around her neck.

“king, look. Imperial Concubine is wearing this hairpin, or this hairpin …”

Nian An glanced at the red blush on her face, pretended that nothing was wrong and picked up the jewelry box for Yulixiao to choose from.

Yulixiao carefully rummaged through it once, and felt that it was extremely gorgeous. He couldn’t even call his Yu Yan, so he took out a pear blossom hairpin that was inlaid with pearls after a while, and placed it into her hair bun. There were a few snow-white pear blossoms with jade stamens in the middle, shining like the jade fish in front of her chest.

Yu Yan took another look and did not put down the copper mirror for a long time. If there were no redness on her face, wouldn’t she also be a devastatingly beautiful woman? It was just that she wronged Yulixiao to bring her to see such a group of officials.

Yulixiao knew what she was looking at, so he gently pulled away the bronze mirror from her hand and pulled her up, saying in a low voice: “Let’s go.”

Yu Yan took a deep breath and nodded. Then, they started walking towards the exit with big strides.

As long as he didn’t care, so what if the whole world laughed at her for being ugly? Her beauty, her ugliness, never needed to be appreciated or judged. She was Yu Yan, and she lived only for herself and her lover.

The civil and military officials, along with the beautiful family members, had filled the entire palace.

After the long horn sounded, everyone kneeled down and shouted “Long live King Xiao” and “Long live the Royal Concubine”.

Yu Yan followed behind him by a step, and followed her footsteps. Chen Yao, Ye Mingyue and Qiu Xuanling followed closely behind. In front of the steps that was carved with 100 birds, the three women stopped. Yulixiao turned his face slightly and extended his hand out.

Yu Yan graciously put her hands on it and followed him up the stage. They sat together on the huge gilded chair.

This was a banquet, a banquet where hundreds of officials came to congratulate them. All sorts of wedding gifts were presented one by one, filling the hall with their splendor and wealth. Yu Yan was of course the most eye-catching, not only because of her face, but also because of her father.

Yu Xiang had offended more than half of the people here, so in their eyes, his daughter was also a powerful figure. Otherwise, how could she bear to be so shameless, and capture Yulixiao? Instead of leaving his two wives in the same predicament as him, would he bring her to sit on the platform?

“king, it is a joyous night today. I shall prepare a song and dance for you all to celebrate.” Yu Fengxiao stroked his beard and said happily.

“There must be a beauty.” Yu Yan leaned over and whispered into his ear.

“It’s good to have a beauty, a feast for the eyes.” He smiled and looked up at the stage in the blink of an eye. He said in a clear voice, “Thank you, Imperial Uncle, for building a new dynasty and offering this Prosperous Era Dance.”

“It’s been changed to the new year’s number? I thought you were going to call yourself a brave and mighty warrior or something like that. ” Yu Yan sat upright, laughed, and said softly.

“Am I that vulgar?” He was speechless.

“The poem Jianxing is vulgar, but vulgar is good! “With great fortune, the world is at peace and prosperity.” Yu Yan said seriously.

“That mouth of yours, no matter what you say, makes me feel comfortable.” He was beaming more and more.

The war had been tough, and the past three years had been tough, and he had not yet won, but now victory was on his side. It was only a matter of time before he crossed the river, and he only needed to wait for the world to come together.

When the song began, the dancers began to dance in a graceful manner.

The one leading the group was Yu Fengxiao’s beautiful woman, it was as if it was a common practice to gift the strong beauty, as though it was a gift of gold and silver.

That beauty was truly beautiful. She twisted her waist and swung her hand, like a willow branch swaying in the spring wind, her eyes rippling with passion. When she looked at Yulixiao, there was a myriad of emotions contained within them.

“Hey, I like you.” Yu Yan tilted her head and said softly.

“I think so too.” Yulixiao turned his head around with a serious expression.

“What do I give you as a gift?” Yu Yan asked softly.

He stared at her for a long time before he slowly said, “Live with me and let me do whatever I want …”

“Mm …” Yu Yan was so moved by the first half of his sentence that her heart bloomed, but she was shocked speechless by the second half. She blushed and forgot to sit still, she raised her hand and hit him on the body, “I’ll make you speak nonsense, I’ll make you torture me.”

With a low laugh, he grabbed her small hand and pulled her into his embrace. His chin was pressed against her forehead as he said lowly, “Insolent Yu Yan, you dare to attack me. I’ll punish you right now …”

“What do you want to punish me with?” Yu Yan asked, amused.

“Mm …” I shall punish you, and pour wine for this king. ” He smiled and released her.

After all, this was in front of the officials, so it wasn’t good to cause too much trouble. Yu Yan obediently picked up the wine pot and poured some wine for him.

“Yulixiao…” She looked into his eyes and whispered, “I’ll just give you one sentence.”

“Hmm?” He took it and waited for her to finish.

“Although sweet potatoes are ordinary, they can definitely fill your stomach.” Yu Yan winked at him and laughed.

The light in his eyes dimmed slightly as he smiled. She had originally thought that Yu Yan would feel uncomfortable sitting here, as she had always cared a lot about her face.

That’s good!

He raised his head and drank the wine that was filled to the brim.

Yu Yan sat upright, revealing a dignified and generous look, her gentle eyes swept across the hall.

Chen Yao was dressed in a light green dress and only had a cross in one bun. She wore a golden comb with bright pearls embedded in it and held a jade bottle in her hand as she smiled and looked at Song Wu.

Ye Mingyue’s pipa was placed beside him, she only looked at the stage quietly. Qiu Xuanling was looking at her mother, grabbing a few cherry fruits and bringing them to her mouth.

Yu Fengxiao had the most people, and he sat at the side with his beloved concubine and his fourth son. The youngest son, Yu Qingchen, had always been curiously looking at Yu Yan’s face, and was probably the only one in the whole hall who would dare to stare at Yu Yan.

Yu Yan really liked this little fellow, so she gently waved her hand towards her. The little guy immediately smiled shyly, then stood up and gave her a formal bow.

This movement once again attracted everyone’s attention. All the officials brought their families, and those with beautiful daughters sat next to them. If not, they would have to be brought by the beautiful ladies of their clan, hoping that they would catch Yulixiao’s eyes. From then on, they would be related to Yulixiao by blood.

It was a pity, women were the bridges these power-hungry people built to the pinnacle of power, how many people would truly think for their daughter’s happiness?

Jin Cheng and An Hong were also shocked, the twins no longer needed to hide their identity anymore. They were Yulixiao’s new overseers in the monitoring plant, Jin Cheng was the left overseer, the overseer of the officials, An Hong was the right field officer, gathering information on the world. These two were the sharp blades that Yulixiao controlled the words and deeds of the hundred officials. Those who commit adultery and plotting personal gains would have to hold their own head carefully. Who knew if that beautiful man called Jin Cheng would slash at him with his steel blade after sending out a bright spring gaze.

Seeing Yu Yan looking at her, the two brothers raised the wine bottle towards her and drank it all in one gulp.

Yu Yan liked this pair of twins. After drinking a cup with them, she patted her chest and said softly: “When do I see the two of them getting married? “Seems like he’s quite old.”

“Yes, rest assured.” The corner of Yulixiao’s mouth lifted slightly as a mischievous glint flashed past his eyes. He had given these two brothers a choice that was not easy to deal with. Let’s see if they still have the strength to tease him!

These strange sharp eyes made the two brothers’s hair stand on end. They exchanged glances, then raised their cups to Yulixiao with a forced smile on their faces.

Yulixiao raised his hand and took a sip of the wine.

The affection between the two of them, in the eyes of the three madams of His Highness, naturally had their own thoughts and displeasure.

When Ye Mingyue saw this, she could no longer hold it in. Grief, despair, as well as unwillingness made her feel as if she was sitting on pins and needles.

“Ah, the prince really loves big sister.” Qiu Xuanling sighed and said softly, “If you can give me 10%, I would be satisfied.”

Ye Mingyue raised her wine cup, suddenly raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

Having accompanied her for more than two years, her heart had long been deeply devoted to that person. It was a love that could not be cut off, and now she could only bear it herself.

“Does my sister regret this? That day, I wanted to wrongly believe in her and help her. ” Chen Yao took a sip of the wine, her long eyelashes drooping as she asked indifferently.

“What is there to regret? Even if I don’t help, she can still come forward. The Prince likes her because she is Yu Yan, she is different from us. ” Ye Mingyue grabbed her wine pot and poured herself a cup.

“What’s the difference?” Qiu Xuanling bent over and asked softly.

“Wanting to capture him so he can do it? How pitiful.” Chen Yao smiled again, turned her head and looked at her, “When a woman captures the heart, she should have a plan. Since the two little sisters don’t understand, they will naturally lose the heart of the king.”

“Is that love? I really do like king, even if he doesn’t like me or look at me, I still like him. king is a great hero, no one in the world can compare to him, even if I had to die for him, I am willing. ” Qiu Xuanling frowned and muttered.

“It’s useless to say that to me. You have to say these sentimental words to the king.” Ye Mingyue sneered, raised her head again, and drank a cup.

“Oh, I thought you two sisters were the same as me.” Qiu Xuanling shrunk her neck back, turning back into the little turtle again, pulling it back to the side of her table, she grabbed the cherry fruit and continued to eat.

Ye Mingyue once again looked at the stage. Her nose was sore, and she almost cried. She had loved him so much, yet he had embraced someone else. It had almost been torturous for her. A schemer, she wouldn’t. ‘Capture my heart, I don’t understand. All I know is this lute … ‘

Her jade-like fingers caressed the lute, lightly twirling it around and emitting a faint sound as she muttered, “He loved to listen to it in the past …”

Chen Yao’s mouth revealed a faint smile, she took the two cherry fruits and played with them in her hands, her gaze sweeping over to the officials seated opposite him, Yu Fengxiao’s second son, Yu Qinghong was staring at her, his face filled with admiration. Chen Yao frowned slightly, and turned his face away in displeasure. A reckless man actually dared to stare at her in such a manner!

At this moment, the music from the drum suddenly became urgent. The dancers were dancing on a jade lotus, their skirts blooming like peonies as layers of flowers bloomed, filling the hall with their fragrance.

Yulixiao and Yu Yan, who were seated on the high platform, were startled by the cheers and turned to look at the dancers. The girl had jade bone ice muscles that looked somewhat similar to Yu Yan’s and were a little gentler than him, but her free, easy and spirited bearing was not the least bit lacking.

“A bit like me, isn’t it?” Yu Yan asked softly.

“Yes, it looks like it doesn’t look like it,” he nodded, and after pondering for a while, he said in a low voice: “After all, you can’t dance.”

“Hey, you’re being looked down on again. I’ll show you my hand, and see if you can accept it or not.” Yu Yan shrugged and suddenly stood up, then said in a clear voice: “Nian An, take ten feet of white cloth of the River Huai City, prepare a barrel of fragrant ink, and a wolf cub.”

“Yes.” Nian An laughed and ran down the stage.
