Alluring His Wife: The Evil King's Fifth Consort Chapter 421

Vaguely, the moonlight shone onto the Eunuch Li's body as they walked in the direction of the crown prince's palace.

"Yin'er, how's the injury on your leg?" Seated, the Empress cordially asked Zhong Lixian, who was sitting at the bottom of the seats, with a benevolent smile on her face.

Zhong Lixian turned around, her calm eyes quickly revealed a smile, "In that case, after I return to my mother, this son's leg would have more or less recovered. After a few days, I'll be able to untie the string and leave!"

The empress nodded her head slightly and took a sip of the wine, "Today is the last day of the old year. The emperor ordered officials to bring officials to the palace to celebrate with them and the princes brought the w.a.n.gfei along as well. Why didn't the crown prince bring Miss Wei here?"

Just as Zhong Lixian was about to say something, the First Prince suddenly spoke out: "From mother's words, it seems like the crown prince has someone he likes? "Aiya, this is great news! It looks like the crown prince is going to become his consort soon!"

When the surrounding people heard the First Prince's words, the other princes all responded, wanting Zhong Lixian to properly introduce this Miss Wei to them.

Zhong Lixian tried to attack him from the left and right, but the princes and consort were extremely interested in this matter.

Even the emperor chuckled when he saw her. "Zhuan'er, since your brother and brother are so concerned about your life, why do you need to hide it? Even if your status is a little low, you can still be conferred with the t.i.tle of an imperial concubine! "

The emperor seemed to have drank some wine today, and after knowing that Zhong Lixian had a lover, she was especially happy.

Seeing that the emperor had already said it like that, although Zhong Lixian was extremely unwilling, she still got someone to invite Wei Yuanwei over.

Zhong Lixian raised her eyes and looked coldly at the empress, but the empress withdrew her gaze and ate the peeled prawns belonging to the palace maids in an extremely calm manner, as if everything that had happened had nothing to do with her.

Zhong Lixian lightly placed her hand on the table and clenched it, her face becoming increasingly gloomy and cold.

When Wei Yuanwei arrived at the Ten Thousand Flowers House, wearing a golden-red robe with elegant orchids embroidered on it, dragging the yellow ancient pattern b.u.t.terflies with a cloud-shaped Qian Shui Dress, and holding onto a green peony mist, the noisy and congratulatory feast instantly quietened down.

Wei Yuanwei's elegant jade-like face was painted with light plum blossom makeup, his originally clear and beautiful face had faded, and that tender and tender appearance had now revealed a tinge of charm, that captivated one's soul. If he was a fairy that was originally as beautiful as a fairy, yet now as if he had fallen into the dust of the mortal world, the other man would have lost his soul, but the most unforgettable thing was his pair of bright starlight eyes.

All of the officials present, including the princes and imperial concubines, were dumbfounded. All of them were dressed up, and all of their appearances added to the fragrance of a nation's beauty. However, why did it feel like they had lost all color the moment Wei Yuanwei appeared …

Even though they had transformed into exquisite faces, they couldn't compare to Wei Yuanwei's beautiful eyes.

"Come here." Zhong Lixian swept her cold gaze across everyone and spoke to Wei Yuanwei who was below the stairs.

Wei Yuanwei heard that with the help of Little Yun Zi, Wei Yuanwei walked towards Zhong Lixian's side with delicate steps.

When Wei Yuanwei walked past them, the sweet smell of the incense made several princes feel as if their souls were being sucked out of them, and they all looked towards Wei Yuanwei.

It was unknown why this woman's appearance could not be considered outstanding, but it was a fatal attraction to them.

The moment she appeared, it was impossible for anyone to take their eyes off her.

Wei Yuanwei lowered her gaze, ignoring the various gazes from the crowd, she quietly sat down beside Zhong Lixian.

Before Wei Yuanwei could even sit properly, Zhong Lixian gently lifted both her hands to sweep the snow that was falling on her shoulders as she asked in concern, "Is it cold?"

Her voice was low and hoa.r.s.e, with a rare hint of gentleness in it.

Wei Yuanwei's eyes could not help but scan the faces of the princes and emperors, and then she lightly said, "Not cold, thank you for your concern, Crown Prince!"

The emperor, who was seated at the head of the table, looked at Wei Yuanwei for a long time before realizing that this Miss Wei was actually the palace maid who was dressed in the clothes of a palace maid that she had seen in the Empress Palace that day.

It was just a change of clothes and makeup, but the same person could actually come and go so fast.

The First Prince looked at Wei Yuanwei three times before saying meaningfully, "No wonder the crown prince brought this Miss Wei into the palace. I'm afraid none of the people here can compare to her beauty, right?"

"That's right, the Crown Prince has his own eyes!" All the princes echoed him one by one, their gazes never leaving Wei Yuanwei's body from beginning to end.

And when the consorts who sat beside the princes and princes saw how popular Wei Yuanwei was, and even praised him to the skies, they naturally felt discontent in their hearts.

"From the looks of it, Miss Wei is not from Xiling, right?" The First Prince's consort was the first to open his mouth and smile, a trace of a smile appearing on his slightly fattened face.

Wei Yuanwei gently lifted her gaze and looked at Zhong Lixian who was beside him. Just as Zhong Lixian was about to answer, the Queen's amiable voice rang out: "Miss Wei is a citizen of Eastern Chu, and Father is a small official of the imperial court. It's a pity that he was framed by his comrades and took over the family.

The Queen's words carried a bit of happiness, her expression revealing her love for Wei Yuanwei.

When Wei Yuanwei heard that, her brows tightened.

A bad feeling quickly crept into his heart.

Zhong Lixian did not comment, and only looked at the empress with an even more meaningful gaze, as she completely did not understand what the empress was trying to say.

"Is that so? That is to say that the Miss Wei has benefited from this calamity? " The imperial concubine said with a smile, but there was a hint of ridicule in his tone.

All of them held their heads high, their chests puffing out. They were all born into powerful families, but, who was born in a small clan and had his home taken away, was like a stray dog, so what if he had that appearance? With their status and ident.i.ty, Wei Yuanwei could not compare to them.

could at most only be used as a tool to warm the bed beside the crown prince, he couldn't even be called the side consort!

Even though Wei Yuanwei lowered her gaze, she could still clearly feel the scornful and mocking gazes the various w.a.n.gfei shot at her.

He could only laugh coldly in his heart.

"Regardless of whether it was a blessing in disguise or not, for a girl to be chosen by Yin'er, it is all due to her personality. Her cultivation is well-loved by the crown prince, otherwise, with so many beautiful ladies in this world, I have never been tempted by any of them." The Empress seemed to praise Wei Yuanwei to no end.
