Phoenix’s Requiem - 70. Chapter 70

It was June in a blink of an eye, and the weather got hotter. However, the phoenix flower bloomed more and more brilliantly, the pink petals gradually turned bright red, and the large tracts were connected together like a bloody sunset, which made people dare not look directly at it.

In mid-June, it rained for many days in a row, and the imperial city, which had been sultry for many days, finally became cooler.

On this day, Yun Ruoyan was enjoying the coolness with her grandmother Liu, and Yun Lan came in to tell Yun Ruoyan that the Queen’s Empress’s flower viewing banquet was to be held the next night.

He handed Yun Ruoyan a golden invitation with a floral design. Yun Ruoyan took the invitation and opened it. The seven words “Yun Ruoyan” came into her eyes.

Yun Ruoyan’s eyes couldn’t help flashing a trace of doubt. She thought that she would not invite her to the flower banquet again that night when she was scared off the night, but unexpectedly this invitation still came.

Just after noon on the second day, Shaoyao was busy dressing Yun Ruoyan, still wearing the formal attire Liu had prepared for her.

An open-necked tender cyan silk dress gown with gold and silver threads interspersed with colorful cloud butterflies and colorful falling petals. Wearing on Yun Ruoyan’s body, it is both dignified and graceful, yet clear and lovely.

Because there is no time, the hair bun is still loose in the back. Only wear a small golden pinch flower on the right, and an emerald green glaze inlaid with golden sway on the left. The glazed glaze swayed between Gu and Pan, and a ray of brilliance shone on her left cheek like fat.

“Miss, what kind of veil do you wear today?” Shaoyao asked.

Xilan looked clumsy, but she was clever. She used her expertise to make Yun Ruoyan a lot of veils of different shapes and colors, and each of them was not inferior to Lin Qingchen’s craftsmanship.

Yun Ruoyan glanced at the veil spread out on the table, and suddenly remembered the scene where the prince was terrified that night. She couldn’t help but smiled, stretched out her hand to pinch the veil shaped like phoenix petals, and put it on.

In the evening, Yun Ruoyan and Yun Ruoyao rode towards the palace in the same carriage.

When the two met only in Xianglan Court, they only said a few words on the surface, and then they didn’t say a word.

Although Yun Ruoyao was looking out the window, the corner of her eyes couldn’t help but glanced at Yun Ruoyan. To be precise, she should have glanced at Yun Ruoyan’s gold-inlaid glass step.

At this time last year, she saw this step from her grandmother, and begged her mother to ask her for it.

An’s said that it was Liu’s dowry and was to be passed on to the Yun family’s prostitute. After she got the position of the Yun family’s prostitute, it would naturally belong to her, and there was no need to ask for it.

At that time, both mother and daughter felt that the position of the prostitute would soon be obtained. But today, a year later, the Liuli Jinbu swayed but dazzled, and it was firmly inserted on Yun Ruoyan’s head.

“If my sister is exhausted, you can close your eyes and raise your mind for a while.” Yun Ruoyan said suddenly.

“My sister took a nap and didn’t feel bored.” Yun Ruoyao smiled awkwardly, but she was a little surprised in her heart, turned her eyes away, and hid her hatred deeper.

At dusk, the carriage finally stopped at the east gate of the palace.

There are four gates to the imperial palace. The north gate is the main gate, which is a passage for the royal children and ministers to enter the palace.

The west gate and the south gate are the passages for buying in the palace and the eunuchs, and the east gate is the passage for the women’s families inside and outside the palace.

At this time, there were already a lot of carriages and horses before the East Gate, and they all waited for the hour to enter the palace for the flower viewing feast.

Yun Ruoyao informed Yun Ruoyan, and got out of the car to reminisce about the old with other big clan children that he knew well.

Yun Ruoyan sat in the carriage for a while, and as soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw Pei Ziao wearing a moonwhite robe and a white jade crown, coming towards her with a smile on his handsome face.

“Sister Ruoyan, you are here, so I can find it easily.”

He arrived here early in the morning and had already searched for it. Only when he saw the Yun family carriage from a distance, he hurriedly walked over. He happened to see Yun Ruoyan opening the curtain to get out of the car, but with this one, he couldn’t move his eyes.

“Oh?” Yun Ruoyan raised her brows slightly and asked: “Master Pei is looking for me to give me a high-grade elixir, or is the tiger tooth arrow forged?”

Pei Zi was stunned for a moment, and his face was a little sullen, “Sister Ruoyan, you also know that elixir is very precious, I told my father, he disagrees. As for the Huya arrowhead, it is already being forged.”

Yun Ruoyan snorted, “Oh, it turns out that your Young Master Pei’s words don’t count, then why did you be so cheerful and amusing me?”

“I…” Pei Ziao’s face turned red, and said anxiously: “Apart from the elixir, as long as I can do it, I’m willing to do it for you.”

“Really?” Yun Ruoyan still had an obviously joking but beautifully unpleasant smile on her face.

“Well, really!”

“Okay!” Yun Ruoyan looked at Pei Ziao and said word by word: “From now on, besides giving me the elixir and the Huya arrow, besides, please give me how far I can go. I don’t want to see you. !”

Pei Ziao’s warm heart seemed to be thrown into the ice cellar, and it kept sinking.

He really couldn’t figure out why Yun Ruoyan hated him so much? !

Regarding status, although the Pei family is no more aristocratic than the Yun family, under Pei Yingxiong’s operation in the past few years, the Pei family’s status has also become higher and higher.

Yun Ruoyan is a noble daughter, and he is not only a son or an only son, as long as he marries him, it means that he can inherit the entire Pei family, and there is no need to worry about the brotherhood disputes that often occur in the family.

In terms of appearance, he prides himself on being superior, and no matter how beautiful Yun Ruoyan looks, he can’t erase the mark under the gorgeous veil.

Why? Why on earth did she not put him in her eyes! Why put his joy, his diligence under his feet! ?

Thinking of this, Pei Ziao couldn’t help but clenched his hands into fists, and his heart also rose in love and hatred towards Yun Ruoyan.

Yun Ruoyan was too lazy to care about Pei Zi’ao’s emotional changes and didn’t care at all. For a person who will die in his own hands sooner or later, any emotion except for ignoring the excess is a waste.

“Brother Ziao, you are here, I have been looking for you for a long time.”

At this moment, a female voice that hadn’t been heard in Yun Ruoyan’s ears for a long time suddenly sounded, and she couldn’t help looking at the voice.

Yi Qianying, dressed in a gorgeous formal dress, walked towards her side and looked straight at Pei Ziao beside her.

“Prince Pei, your good sister is here, I won’t bother you two renewing the past.” Yun Ruoyan smiled lightly, then raised his foot and walked towards the east gate.

“Sister Ruoyan!” Yi Qianying hurriedly stopped in front of Yun Ruoyan, “How come you see me and leave without even saying hello? Are you still angry with your sister for what happened last time? ”

With her arrival, Yun Ruoyan smelled a faint fragrance of flowers, with a hint of sweetness in the fragrance, which was a bit seductive. I don’t know how many bees and butterflies will be attracted tonight.

The annual flower viewing banquet may not necessarily match the princes and princesses, but many of the boys and girls of the family’s children look right. Although Yi Qianying has a heart for Pei Ziao, how can she let the opportunity to show herself off like this?

Seeing Yi Qianying looking at her with big watery eyes, Yun Ruoyan said indifferently, “I blame you. Didn’t you also be scented by lotus last time? I want to blame only lotus. I have eaten the bear bile and blinded my dog’s eyes. Everyone dares to hurt!”

“My sister said that Hexiang has already been dealt with, and I must have lost her breath.” Yi Qianying said without changing her face.

“Sister Qianying, why are you here?” Pei Ziao walked over and asked with some confusion. He hasn’t seen Yi Qianying for a long time, and as far as he knows, Yi Qianying should not be eligible to go to the banquet.

Yi Qianying smiled brilliantly. She looked at Pei Ziao and said, “It’s an invitation from my second uncle.”

Although Yi Qianying is the daughter of the Yi family’s son, her father and mother both died early. Liu was afraid that she was an orphan in Yi’s family, so she took care of her since she was a child. The woman exists.

However, one of the two daughters of the current Patriarch of the Yi family is ugly and the other is useless, and this quota for the banquet has to fall on Yi Qianying’s head.

At this time, a eunuch came out from the east gate and announced that the flower viewing banquet was about to begin, and the young masters and ladies of each family were invited to seize the time to enter the palace.

Yun Ruoyan followed a group of more than 30 people, led by court ladies and eunuchs, through the tall east gate, and entered the imperial palace that had never been in the previous life.

At this time, the night has fallen, and the tall and towering palace appears even more majestic and solemn in the misty night.

Some of the more than 30 children who came to the flower viewing feast last year seemed calmer, and those who had never been there could not help whispering and admiring in a low voice.

Before passing a stone statue that was ten feet high, Yun Ruoyan couldn’t help stopping.

It was a statue of a unicorn god with flames all over, kicked on the ground with its hind feet, and raised its fore palms, making it soaring into the air.

Yun Ruoyan raised his head, his gaze fell on the huge head of the Qilin idol, and saw its fangs bulging, and two copper bells looking at the sky with big eyes, as if it would really jump into the sky at any time.

Looking at Yun Ruoyan in this way, she felt her mind agitated, and she couldn’t help but lost her mind.

“This is a firework unicorn!” The tweeted voice resounded in Yun Ruoyan’s mind, and the tone was full of longing.

“Firework unicorn! This is the legendary holy beast that can swallow the sun and the moon, the firework unicorn?!” Yun Ruoyan asked.

“Which girl is that? I don’t understand the rules, so hurry up to keep up.” A sharp voice suddenly sounded.

Yun Ruoyan came back to her senses, and turned to see a white-faced middle-aged man in eunuch uniform standing not far away reprimanding herself, and the team of more than 30 people had already gone far.

“Grandpa Hao, she is my friend.” At this time, a familiar man’s voice sounded behind Yun Ruoyan.

Before Yun Ruoyan had time to turn her head, a familiar figure in black clothes flashed in front of her.

“Wow!” Li Qianhan stood in front of Yun Ruoyan, staring exaggeratedly, his mouth also wide open.

“Unexpectedly, after a few days, the ugly girl will become a phoenix!”

“Heh.” Yun Ruoyan was amused by his appearance, and sneered: “The third prince, but you still haven’t changed. In your own home, you are still sneaky.”

Grandpa Hao stood behind the two, seeing that they were recounting the old days, he couldn’t help but feel anxious, he bowed and said: “The third prince, this young lady, if you don’t leave anymore, it will be the time of the flower appreciation feast. NS.”

Li Qianhan suddenly took Yun Ruoyan’s hand, and said to the white-faced eunuch: “Grandpa Hao, wait a little longer, I’ll take my friends one step ahead.”

Yun Ruoyan only felt a gust of wind under her feet, and then her whole body rose into the air, whistling wind sounded in her ears, and the pavilions on both sides retreated quickly.

“Miss Yun Family.” Li Qianhan turned around and said, “My little emperor is here tonight. He will be happy to see you.”

“What did you say?” Yun Ruoyan was dizzy but didn’t hear clearly.
