Before the banquet started, the queen sent a maid to find Yizhen and Huaxi and returned to Linbo Pavilion.
Susukino Kai, Susukino Shin and the court officials have all arrived. Not long after, the eldest prince Susukino Sohu and the second prince Susukino Zongfei followed along with some young princes.
"Hua Xi, come here and meet your eldest brother and second brother." Susukino looked behind the two of them and asked, "Where is Zong Qi?"
Susukino Zonghu¡¯s face looked a little unnatural, and he said nothing calmly.
Susukino Zongfei took a step forward and said as if he had no intention of saying, "Father, Zong Qi was out in the street a few days ago and caught the cold. He has been recuperating at home these two days, so he will go to the banquet today."
"Wind cold?" Susukino looked calm and did not ask about Zong Qi's situation. He only glanced at the queen and said, "Let's have a banquet!"
Everyone was waiting for the emperor and empress to take their seats. Yizhen sat down next to Huaxi and motioned for Huaxi to sit with her.
The seats in Huaxi are not located here, so I hesitated for a moment whether I should sit down.
Because after the rebellion of the eldest prince, Susukino Yi, of the Susukino family was put down, many died and were exiled. Only two royal families, Susukino Shin and Yizhen, were left in the court. Yizhen and Susukino had the same mother, so their status was even more extraordinary. , can be said to be the most noble princess of Xiyue. Susukino responded to her almost every request and doted on her. Last year, Yizhen got engaged to the eldest son of King Zhidu, but because she wanted to live in Tiandu for two more years, she postponed the wedding, and the wedding date has not yet been determined.
Except for the knowledge of Emperor Susukino, Huaxi's life experience has not been made public. Empress Xun and others can only speculate. Hua Xi still calls her Susukino Nobu's adopted daughter, so she is not strictly a member of the royal family in the eyes of outsiders. And Yizhen's move undoubtedly reminded everyone that Huaxi should be treated as a royal family, not an adopted daughter in the general sense.
Susukino nodded with a smile, "Yizhen is your aunt. You are new here, so you will inevitably be unfamiliar and reserved, so just sit next to her."
Huaxi looked at Susukinoxin, saw Susukinoxin nodded slightly, and sat down next to Yizhen.
Yizhen and Huaxi sit together, which naturally attracts everyone's attention. Queen Xun's expression changed slightly, but she quickly restored the smile on her face, while Xun Rou's face was not very pretty.
Everyone present was also secretly speculating on Princess Yizhen¡¯s thoughts, or more precisely, the emperor¡¯s thoughts, and even the eyes looking at Huaxi were full of inquiry and curiosity.
Susukino announced the start of the banquet, and formally introduced Huaxi to everyone as the daughter of King Xin.
Anyone present who was not an attentive person sensitively noticed Susukino's attitude and wording. Although there was a one-word difference between King Xin's righteous daughter and King Xin's daughter, it sounded like a slip of the tongue, but after taking a closer look at Huaxi, you would suddenly realize that "I see".
From the time she sat down to the start of the banquet, Huaxi didn't care about the various looks from all parties. She sat calmly and calmly, without squinting, enjoying the Xiyue folk music and dance performed in the venue with great interest.
"Brother Huang is worried that you will be nervous, but I don't see that you are a bit reserved." Yizhen is ten years older than Huaxi, and is twenty-five years old this year. When talking to Huaxi, she is more like a peer, without any sense of elders. Make a fuss.
Hua Xi turned her head and said: "No matter how you look at it, a nose and two eyes can't produce flowers. Since they are willing to see it, just let them see it. In a word, what is true cannot be fake, and what is false cannot be true."
At first, because of Xunrou's relationship, Huaxi didn't have a good impression of this young aunt, but today Yizhen came to her rescue, which surprised her. Later, when chatting in the forest, Yizhen mentioned her father intentionally or unintentionally. They seemed very close to each other, and it didn't look like she was being fake. It made Huaxi feel that although she and Xun Rou were friends, they were not the same in nature, so she relaxed a lot when talking.
Yizhen lowered her head and chuckled, "With the way you present yourself, coupled with your indifferent demeanor, the fake can be regarded as real."
Hua Xi took a sip of tea and said, "Auntie, is it a lie or is it true?"
Yizhen raised her eyes and looked at Susukino Shin, looking a little dazed, "The one I respect most in my life is the imperial brother, and the one I trust the mostis the sixth brother. People outside think you are the shield he is looking for, a great emperor." You were sent a shield, but those who know Brother Liu know that he will not give in easily even if outsiders put pressure on him, and he would not even bother to find a weak woman to be a adopted daughter to deal with the Xun family. He has traveled thousands of miles to find you back, I'm afraid it's Because I have been thinking about the woman named Zhenxian for so many years, right?"
Yizhen looked at Huaxi with questioning eyes. Huaxi looked at her with a smile and said, "That's right! The woman you are talking about is my mother. His Majesty gave the title to one of his mother's cousins ??at the request of his father. The word 'Xian'." Huaxi was greatly relieved to hear Mu Xiangwan's name coming from someone close to Susukino Shin, and she was also happy for Mu Xiangwan, as her father said.Yes, although he failed his mother's expectations, he did not fail her feelings.
Yizhen's eyes flashed with astonishment, then her eyes darkened, and she sighed: "It's a pity that we didn't meet each other How many people in this world can be like Sixth Brother, who only cares about one person for more than ten years, and can win Sixth Brother's favor? , what a blessing she is.¡±
It¡¯s hard to imagine that Yizhen, who is loved by thousands of people, would express such emotion. Hua Xi was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the lively and joyful dance in the field. After recalling the conversation between the two of them, she felt more and more that there was a bit of loneliness in Yizhen's eyes when she spoke.
The banquet ended successfully. After being baptized by the eyes of Xiyue's important figures, Huaxi left the palace with Susukino Shin and returned to Prince Shin's Mansion.
The carriage rattled, Huaxi leaned against the wall of the carriage, looking at Susukino Shin, who was sitting upright on one side with his eyes closed, in a daze.
"What are you looking at?" Susukino Shin asked without opening his eyes.
Hua Xi leaned over, supported his head with his hands, looked at Susukino with his big eyes, and asked curiously: "I'm just thinking, in all these years, you have never thought about finding a companion?"
Susukino Shin opened his eyes, rubbed Huaxi's head with his hand, and said leisurely: "My broken body I don't want to use it to harm anyone anymore."
Huaxi asked again: "So, if you were not injured back then, would you still find a companion?" Yizhen's words aroused her interest in Susukino's and Mu Xiangwan's past, and she had never had a deep conversation with Susukino. He talked about his old relationship with Mu Xiangwan.
A man may bury memories deep in his heart forever, but a woman is more often willing to talk to the person she wants to talk to.
With Susukino¡¯s character, he would not take the initiative to say it without Huaxi asking.
Susukinoxin was a little hesitant, fearing that Huaxi would piss him off, but he didn't want to lie to his daughter, "Maybe I'll look for you again But I won't be able to find your mother again"
Hua Xi probably wiped out what he was thinking and said: "My mother left you with profound memories when she was at her most beautiful. You will remember her in your heart for the rest of your life, and these are enough. People cannot live forever indulging in memories. Not going forward"
Susukino's words brought back memories of Hua Xi, "I left your mother and was sent to Qingshiling. When I left there eight years later, your mother had already gone. I went to the battlefield alone, and I wanted to risk my life and avenge the circle." Forbidden hatred, dying on the battlefield In the end, God did not accept my life on the battlefield. The emperor said at that time, since I survived after nine deaths, I should not think about dying anymore. I I originally planned to leave Xiyue and go to Dahua to find your mother's grave and guard her grave. However, although Susukino Yi was dead at that time, the remnants of the rebels were still causing trouble frequently. Outside, Dahua and Wusun were eyeing, and the internal affairs of the court were still unclear. Steady, it was the right time for the emperor to hire someone, but he didn¡¯t say anything about it. Instead, he sent someone to take me to Dahua. The emperor treated me kindly before, but after thinking about it, I had no choice but to use this broken body to help the emperor. Brother, give me a helping hand. But"
Susukino changed the topic, "If I am not seriously injured and come back from the battlefield to help the emperor quell the civil strife, I will also go to your mother's grave to stay for three years before leaving. By then, I will definitely know your existence. , I will try my best to bring you back, and it¡¯s hard to say whether I will find another companion in the future"
Hua Xi felt warm in her heart and said with a smile: "To be honest, I don't want a stepmother to take away your feelings for your mother. But my daughter may get married, and I don't want you to be left alone, so if you really want to find someone, , you have to marry me off first."
"I'm just your daughter. No, let's have a new wife in our family." Susukino smiled, with indescribable affection in his eyes.
Hua Xi nodded thoughtfully, "This is a good way to kill two birds with one stone."
Susukinoxin tapped Huaxi's forehead, "Dad is just saying that there are some talented people who can get married. If my daughter wants to be married, she must be matched with the best."
Hua Xi shook her head, "Talent doesn't necessarily mean good. Aunt Yizhen still envies Mom today, saying that Dad is a man who values ??love and justice. I also want to find a man who can treat me like Dad treats Mom I don't want to be famous all over the world. , I just want to treat each other sincerely"
"It's just that how many people in this world can be as loyal and devoted as my father?" Huaxi straightened up, looked out the window and murmured to herself, wishing well, but she didn't know if it could be realized in the cruel reality.
In his ear, Susukino whispered: "Yes! Dad will find someone who can treat you wholeheartedly."
At this time, Huaxi only regarded Susukino Shin as comforting herself, and did not regard these words as a promise.
Since the banquet, Yan Jin stayed in the palace and did not come back, and the two maids Yu Rui were also sent somewhere by Susukino Shin. Hua Xi never saw the two of them in the palace again.
Many posts came one after another from King Xin¡¯s Mansion, inviting Huaxi to visit the garden, enjoy flowers or be guests. They were all ladies from various families who were at the last palace banquet. Hua Xi looked at the post. Either the name was unfamiliar, or he knew that the name didn't suit his face at all. Huaxi was too lazy to deal with it, so she sent people to reject them all. She began to think about another thing in her mind.
In the past, under the control of others in Dahua, Huaxi simply did not have the strength and financial resources to realize it. After the opening of the incense shop on Deyu Street, Huaxi began to plan this matter. Things changed, but he later came to Xiyue. Now he gradually began to adapt to the life here, and his life was leisurely. Huaxi began to think about setting up a fragrance room dedicated to refining essential oils.
Huaxi became busy until the date of Jincheng¡¯s wedding was decided and guests came to the door.
