Chapter 5: The Birthday Banquet

On the other side, Banxia sat at the table, holding his cheeks in his hands, and kept coming out of his mouth, "Hey! Xiaozhu on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and said helplessly: "Miss, you have sighed all afternoon." ”

Xiaozhu leaned over to Banxia's ear, looked like he had seen through Banxia, and said with a smile: "Miss, aren't you just worried about the young master's birthday gift, the slave maid has a way." ”

Banxia's eyes lit up, turned her head, and asked her, "What way?" ”

"You think, the young master doesn't lack anything, but the slave maid heard that the young master likes to watch and dance."

"Really?"

"The slave listened to what the attendant beside the young master said. He said that every time the young master went to a banquet, he would look at the dancing girl on the stage. ”

Why does this sound so unpleasant, Brother Ye actually likes to watch dancing girls, Banxia must let him know that he dances better than those dancing girls. With that in mind, she stood up and ran to the door.

"Miss, why are you going? Wait for me. ”

"Of course, I went to dance. Xiaozhu, you hurry up. A bell-like laughter rang out in the courtyard.

At night, Banxia lay on the bed, muttering: "I'm tired to death." Xiaozhu was pounding Banxia's legs, "Miss, you work so hard, the young master will definitely see your good." ”

Banxia listened to Xiaozhu's words, and felt that the soreness had been reduced a lot. Banxia picked up a book at the head of the bed, strange, why is there a piece of paper in the middle?

Banxia flipped to the place where the paper was clamped, it was a painting, and when Banxia saw it clearly, there was an "ah" sound, and Banxia threw the book to the ground. Banxia was immersed in the painting just now, and couldn't calm down for a long time, what Banxia saw just now.

"Miss, what do you see?" Xiaozhu looked at Banxia's frightened appearance, so he picked up the book on the ground, and when he saw it, Xiaozhu also screamed. "What kind of monster is this?" Xiaozhu said tremblingly.

Banxia patted his chest, it's okay, it's just a painting. But it's also too scary, with a snake tail on the human body, but handsome in appearance, and it is estimated that it is a myth.

Thinking of the painting just now, Banxia thought about the child she saw when she was a child, a little merman, with a fleshy face, very cute, I don't know how he is now! And that Mo'er has a portrait of him in his hand, what the hell is going on? Banxia knocked on his head, puzzled.

Banxia got out of bed, slowly approached the book, picked it up, closed it quickly, and put it on the table again. "Xiaozhu, you can return it to the library tomorrow."

Xiaozhu's mood also calmed down, "Okay, Miss." But does this really exist in this world? ”

"There is nothing strange in the world. But even if it exists, we probably won't be able to encounter it. Banxia pondered.

"Miss, go to sleep." Xiaozhu felt that if he continued to talk about it, he would probably have nightmares tonight.

"Okay." I don't want to think about it, my leg hurts so much.

In the other room, my aunt was rummaging for something on the desk, and when my grandmother saw this, she said, "Mrs. Lanshan, what is missing?" ”

"Why is one of the paintings on this table missing?" My aunt asked anxiously.

"When the slave and maid cleaned up the room, they didn't see any paintings. Maybe it wasn't in the stack of books in the library today. ”

When my aunt saw that the search was fruitless, she said, "Then you will go and see it tomorrow, and you will definitely bring back the painting." ”

"Yes, ma'am."

On the day of his birthday, the house was lit up, and the housekeeper stood at the door, looking at the maids who were putting things back and forth, "You should be careful, today is the top priority in the house." ”

"Yes, Steward Li." The handmaidens replied in unison.

Ye Anshi stood in the courtyard, looking at the more and more luxurious decorations, but he didn't feel a sense of joy in his heart. Back then, when their Ye family was framed and imprisoned, everyone avoided it. Now, it's time again. The human heart is really ugly. But there was one person who was different, a familiar face appeared in front of his face, and he asked the attendant next to him: "Miss, what are you doing in the room?" ”

"Back to the young master, the young lady is preparing for tonight's dance."

How much Ye Anshi wanted to see the good of Banxia for him alone, but no, he was carrying the entire Ye family, and it was the undead who died for the Ye family. He clenched his fists and brushed away. The attendants around him didn't know why, so they could only hurry up and follow.

At night, the guests came one after another, and everyone was talking, "This Ye Mansion is really powerful, Mrs. Lan Shan, who was not allowed to have eyebrows, has now produced the young and promising Prime Minister Ye." "Hey, I think back then, the Ye family was one of the best families. However, he was framed and imprisoned, and most of them died in prison, and since then the Ye family has withered. ”

A man dressed in white appeared at the door, and the guests were surprised. One asked the people around him, "Liu Shangshu, didn't this general never come to such an occasion?" Why ...... today?"

"After all, this is Prime Minister Ye's birthday, who doesn't want to stammer." The man laughed and said, "Cough, cough!" The man patted his chest desperately, it was General Twilight just now, it was so dangerous, the general didn't want to kill him.

"General Twilight, you're here." When Ye Anshi saw him, he stepped forward to greet him.

"Congratulations to Prime Minister Ye." General Twilight said softly, his eyes kept staring at Ye Anshi's back, but he didn't see the person he wanted to see. So he asked, "I don't know where the girl is?" Here are some poems I want to talk to her. ”

Ye Anshi's heart stirred up waves, but the surface was as calm as water, and said: "Banxia will come over in a while." ”

"Okay." General Twilight smiled and sat down. At the beginning of the banquet, instrumental music sounded slowly, a woman appeared in the middle of the stage, and the table suddenly fell silent.

Wearing a bright red and gorgeous dance skirt, outlining a charming figure, holding a girl's bun on her head, inserting a butterfly hairpin, the bell on her feet is crisp and pleasant, giving birth to lotus step by step, holding a fan in her hand and half covering her face, it makes people think about it between a smile and a smile. Sometimes it's as light as a butterfly, sometimes it's as atmospheric as a wave.

As soon as the woman appeared, General Twilight and Ye Anshi couldn't take their eyes off it, as if only they and the people on the stage were left in the world. At the end of the dance, everyone applauded.

Banxia stood on the stage, there was only one person in his eyes, and tonight's dance was only for him.

Ye Anshi looked at General Dui's obsessive eyes, and said with a smile: "General Dusk, I don't know what I think of Banxia?" ”

"Miss Ao is such a wonderful person."

"What about you, General Twilight?"

"What?" General Twilight dilated his pupils, trying to find traces of jokes on Ye Anshi's face.

"General Twilight doesn't want to? Then Ye could only find another lover for Banxia. ”

General Twilight hurriedly said, "Yes, too willing." Prime Minister Ye, thanks to you for looking up to Dusk, you will definitely treat Miss Yu well in the future. He picked up the wine glass on the table, "Brother Ye, I toast you." ”

Ye Anshi drank it all, and he had never felt that this wine was so bitter. The guests were all drinking, but Ye Anshi felt that the noise had nothing to do with him anymore, only the endless night accompanied him.

In the city, Mo'er opened the scroll on the table, and on the scroll was a woman stroking the qin, full of aura between her smile and smile. Mo'er stroked the eyes in the painting, tears filled her eyes, but she still sneered: "It's really ridiculous, the city lord still can't forget you." ”

Unconsciously, another pair of eyes appeared in Mo'er's mind, "Banxia, your eyes look like her." So I'm disgusted, disgusted with anyone like her. She flicked her sleeves angrily and threw the rest of the table on the floor, but the painting was intact.

"Meng Banxia, next time I will have a good time with you, and revenge you for demolishing my revenge." Mo'er put away the scroll and left the imperial city to find evidence of the murder of the Mansion that year.
