Half a month passed in a hurry, this day is Laba, according to the rules of the palace, the emperor and the queen will feast the ministers, all the officials and female dependents above the third grade will enter the palace to receive the banquet. When Li Weiyang walked into the hall, Empress Pei was already surrounded by the prince's concubines, and Pei Hou rarely showed a smile, a happy scene.

Wang Zijin walked over, she was wearing a light blue silk double-walled dress, which was even more charming and charming, and could not be forced. She stood side by side with Li Weiyang, and said with a slight smile: "Jia'er, what are you looking at?" ”

Li Weiyang glanced lightly at the top of the main hall, and Wang Zijin glanced at it, only to see that the crown princess, Concubine Lu and others were surrounding Pei Hou and didn't know what to say. Wang Zijin naturally understood what Li Weiyang meant, and she said lightly: "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has recently favored a beauty outside the palace, and even for her not to return to the Prince's Mansion for a long time, this matter is already known to everyone, and the Crown Princess naturally can't hold back." However, it was able to make the crown prince not even care about the dignity of the royal family, and he didn't care about these noble wives and concubines at all, so it can be seen that the woman must have the appearance of a country and a city. ”

Li Weiyang smiled, Leng Lian is indeed as beautiful as an immortal, but what really fascinates the prince is not this. There is always a thorn in the prince's heart, that is, Empress Pei has always been lukewarm to him, not like a loving mother at all, this is of course the nature of Empress Pei, and on the other hand, the prince's inferiority complex is also very strong. Leng Lian is knowledgeable, gentle and tactful, and understands the prince's mood very well, of course, she will do everything possible to explain and tender, like an interpretation flower to clean up the prince well. In addition, the prince still has a bit of a mother-lover complex and a hint of provocation towards Empress Pei's majesty, so Leng Lian's current status has been created...... The thoughts in this are not complicated, and it is difficult for anyone to believe them lightly. Li Weiyang didn't explain much, she just smiled and said: "To be able to win the prince's love, this woman is naturally a stunning immortal." ”

Seeing that she didn't want to say more, he didn't force it, and his eyes looked directly at the excitement over there: "Those women can't sit still now, not only them, I'm afraid even Empress Pei can't sit still!" "If it weren't for this, how could Empress Pei, who had never cared about the crown princess and concubine, suddenly be so kind?

Sure enough, I heard Empress Pei look at Concubine Zhang and smile: "Your child has been more than four months, right?" ”

Concubine Zhang was flattered and hurriedly said, "Yes, Queen Mother." ”

And the other concubines saw that Empress Pei was rarely kind to a person, and they couldn't help but be envious and jealous, and there was almost fire in their eyes. The crown princess smiled with jealousy: "Exactly, the daughter-in-law has always told her to be cautious, and she must take good care of the fetus and give the prince another son as soon as possible." When she said this, Concubine Lu next to her couldn't help but be angry, she had just given birth to a son, and now this Concubine Zhang is going to compete with her for favor, she is really angry! But she didn't show it on her face, she only smiled faintly: "What the crown princess said is that Su Rili saw that you took great care of Concubine Zhang, so much so that even the prince ignored it!" ”

The crown princess was choked by her, and couldn't help but be ashamed and angry, her face turned red, but the other concubines present lowered their heads and couldn't help laughing. The crown princess has a jealous temperament, and the last time she made a fuss about Leng Lian, everyone knew about it. The prince now refuses to enter her room at all, and it is rare to go back to the prince's mansion, at most it is just to look at the son born to the pregnant Concubine Zhang and Concubine Lu, and the others can't see the prince even if they stretch their necks.

The crown princess didn't know how many times she pretended to be sick, but unfortunately she couldn't change her husband's heart, and now Concubine Lu was sarcastic in the cold court, clearly talking about the princess's fall from grace, how could she be willing?

Empress Pei watched coldly, and seeing that she was just kind to them, these people kicked their noses in the face, making the scene tense and ugly, and couldn't help sneering. If it weren't for the sake of appeasing people's hearts and making a false impression of harmony, why would she be here to make false promises with them? These women are more stupid than the other, she doesn't pay attention to them at all, but fortunately, her background is still a little useful. She was silent on her face, but smiled slightly: "As the saying goes, when you marry a wife, you should marry a virtuous wife, and if you want to be a good wife, don't care about what you shouldn't care, and more importantly, you know your own proportions, and know how to be polite, modest, and moderate." I know there have been some bad rumors here and there lately, and I don't look into them. I am only here to tell you that since you are married into the royal family, you should know the rules and guard your husband well, and you don't have to worry about other things. No matter what the prince does, you must do your duty, know how to be his eyes and ears, and don't just think about fighting with each other. However, if there is any negligence on the part of the prince, you must not let it go, and you should still persuade it. Now that the prince is so ridiculous, and some of you people are also letting it go, don't you want to laugh and be generous? ”

The crown princess was speechless for a while, and her eyes turned red when she couldn't care about everyone: "Queen Mother, how can my daughter-in-law not know this truth?" I have always done this on weekdays, but I have always been dull and did not please the prince, and I angered him for a while, so I caused the last incident. Now, he refuses to come home! It's not my fault, even all the sisters are cold. ”

Concubine Lu thought for a moment, this was not right, and hurriedly said: "This can't be blamed on the crown princess, we don't have the ability, we can't tie the prince's heart......"

Empress Pei looked at their faces with different expressions, and said with a smile: "Those wild flowers and weeds outside are just a momentary romance, and they can't be put on the stage no matter what." With me for a day, are you still afraid that the position of the talented concubine will not be guaranteed? You are the same, assist the prince well, and don't let him do some foolish things again. ”

Several side concubines looked at each other, but they all responded in unison: "Yes, Queen Mother." ”

They whispered here, and others couldn't hear clearly, but they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts when they saw the scene of laughter and harmony. Someone has already privately discussed: "Didn't you say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not the biological son of Empress Pei?" Seeing that the mother is so pleasant, it's not like it! ”

Immediately, there was a human being: "How do you know? Niangniang never likes to talk and laugh with people lightly on weekdays, where can these princesses and concubines meet her? Now she suddenly shows such kindness and kindness, it can be seen that she is going to show others at all! ”

People whispered, some believed, some suspected, and the prince couldn't help but become more annoyed when he took these voices in his ears more or less. At this moment, he already believed that Empress Pei was not his biological mother at all. Not only that, but she is also jealous of herself and guarding herself, preferring to reuse a favored minister to press herself everywhere, how can this not make him hold a grudge?

Just as the prince was thinking wildly, there were already hundreds of operas performing in the wide square in front of him. Princess Ali grew so big and it was the first time she saw a hundred operas, and she couldn't help but stare intently, more than a dozen big drums were carried out, the drums sounded, and dozens of big men danced all the way with bright red sweat towels around their waists, and the atmosphere was extremely warm. A professional animal trainer leads two ferocious tigers from each side of the square into the arena and makes them jump over the fire ring to perform acrobatics for the crowd before exiting. After a while, several artists and performers climbed poles and somersaults, all of which were skilled and powerful, Princess Ali was fascinated by it, and suddenly heard a "boom", and a corner of the square suddenly burst into flames, she couldn't help but be startled, and quickly grabbed Li Weiyang's arm.

Li Weiyang smiled lightly, patted her hand and said, "It's okay, it's just a performance." Sure enough, I saw rows of women in blue walking out of the right side of the square, holding a torch high, and in an instant they spat flames, and the torch suddenly burned brightly, and they performed and danced at the same time.

Princess Ali saw that this group of people actually spewed fire, and continued to make all kinds of weird performances, which were so funny that she couldn't help but be elated to see it, and completely forgot what she was afraid of just now, and then, there were all kinds of circus, flying scenes, mask dances, etc., the scene was very lively. Not to mention that Princess Ali was fascinated, even the other ministers couldn't help but let go of their former reserves and laughed.

After three rounds of drinking, the emperor appeared. When everyone saw His Majesty coming, they quickly stood up and shouted long live.

Li Weiyang saw from a distance that although the emperor's body was not unusual, but now it was faintly blue, and the red mark on his eyebrows was deeper. This shows that the emperor's headache has not been completely cured, but if he does not attend such a banquet today, it will give everyone the impression that his illness is worse...... It's barely enough. Li Weiyang was thinking about it, and Princess Ali smiled and said, "Jia'er, the emperor is late today!" ”

Li Weiyang was stunned for a moment, and then said lightly: "Your Majesty can come whenever you want, we only have the points to welcome, how can we blame Your Majesty!" ”

Princess Ali stuck out her tongue, but she didn't think so, in her opinion, so many people were waiting for the emperor alone, and he was too domineering.

I only heard the emperor laugh loudly: "Okay, everyone, let's get even!" ”

Then everyone got up and returned to their seats, and they dared to sit down only when the eunuch told them to take their seats.

The emperor sat beside Empress Pei, looked at her with a smile, and said, "Today's Laba banquet is really hard for you." ”

Empress Pei smiled, her smile was dignified and graceful, but her voice was flat: "Whatever His Majesty said, this qiē is the duty that the concubine should do, not to mention that there are Concubine Guo Hui and Concubine Chen Guifei to help them, and they can't get tired anyway." However, His Majesty's body had just healed and came out to blow the wind, and the concubine was really worried. ”

Hearing Empress Pei say this, the emperor's smile narrowed slightly, and he snorted coldly: "I'm fine, my body is very good, don't worry about the queen." ”

The corners of Pei Hou's lips curled a shallow arc, obviously not taking the other party's words in her eyes, she was the one who knew the emperor's condition best, and she also knew that he was not as easy as she said.

The emperor had a smile on his face, but his fists were clenched tightly under his sleeves, the green tendons on the back of his hands were bulging, and his back was straight, which showed that his headache was still very serious. Seeing Yiqiē in her eyes, Concubine Guo Hui couldn't help but feel a little anxious. If there is anyone among the concubines who really cares about the emperor's health, she is one. Although she doesn't have much love for the emperor, she has been married for many years, after all, he is Yuan Ying's father, no matter what, she doesn't want to see him hurt anything, and if the emperor falls, it will only weigh Empress Pei's heart, which will be very harmful to them. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but say softly: "Your Majesty, the banquet is almost the same every year, nothing special." Tomorrow is going to the morning court, you have been sick for so long, you must have accumulated a lot of folds, if you are in a hurry...... You might as well go back and review it first. "It's clearly lifting the siege for the emperor.

When Empress Pei heard this, she glanced at her coldly and said, "Your Majesty naturally has time to deal with government affairs, why do you say more?" ”

Concubine Guo Hui showed a look on her face that she wanted to say something, but she immediately stopped.

The emperor also knew that Concubine Hui was thinking about him, otherwise he would not be in a hurry when he was busy with government affairs. But if he leaves now, it will only make people doubt his physical condition, and it is very likely to endanger the stability of the government. Thinking of this, he smiled slightly and said: "Concubine Hui doesn't have to worry, my body has recovered, it's the same if I finish the banquet and go back to review it, but I still have to worry about Concubine Ai to personally send me some snacks when the time comes." ”

Concubine Guo Hui's eyebrows lowered, and she said softly: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Chen Guifei watched coldly and saw that the fight was fierce here, she just shook her head gently. Now the crown prince and King Jing are in the previous dynasty, and Empress Pei and Concubine Guo Hui of the harem each occupy half of the country. Empress Pei's means and scheming are far superior to Guo's. If it weren't for the help of the Duke of Qi, Concubine Guo Hui would definitely not be able to hold on to now. Thinking of this, she glanced at Zhou Shufei next to her, and saw that Zhou Shufei was calmly looking at the hundred opera performances in front of her, unmoved, as if she didn't notice the movement here.

She couldn't help but sigh lightly in her heart, Concubine Zhou is also a powerful lord, this side of the fight is in full swing, she sits there firmly on Mount Tai, if there is no one around, this kind of concentration is not something that ordinary people can have.

At this banquet, Wang Zijin took the initiative to change seats with the people around him, and happened to sit with Li Weiyang, which shows that she has clearly stood on the side of the Duke of Qi, and everyone who saw this change in their eyes was very surprised. You must know that these two people are rivals in love, and now seeing them sitting together talking and laughing, the situation is as weird as it is.

Wang Zijin asked Li Weiyang in a low voice: "After the powder was prepared, you haven't told me what do you want to do?" ”

Li Weiyang smiled faintly: "Didn't I say it?" Ying Chu wanted to present a thousand-armed Guanyin to Empress Pei, and he had asked people to collect portraits in advance so that they could be handed over to the master carver to carve. However, it is said that he searched for a long time and did not find anyone he liked, either his face was too stern or a little frivolous and not dignified enough. The fifth brother can be called a master of Danqing, and the style of painting is unique, rarely seen, and the statue of Guanyin he painted must be excellent...... Therefore, this painting has been sent to Ying Chu. ”

Wang Zijin's heart jumped, she had also seen Director Guo's painting herself. But she didn't think that the other party would carve that painting into a thousand-armed Guanyin, what a risk! Thinking of this, she immediately said: "Jia'er, I'm afraid your wishful thinking is about to fail, I don't think Yingchu will do this." ”

Wang Zijin thought that Li Weiyang was working on the painting, and drove Ying Chu to carve the portrait into Guanyin and present it to Empress Pei. However, she just guessed wrong, Li Weiyang smiled lightly: "Naturally, he won't really carve out that portrait, but ...... It may not be that it will be kept. ”

Wang Zijin couldn't help but be very surprised: "I don't understand what you mean at all, since you know that the other party will not carve according to the portrait, why do you still try to send it to him." ”

Li Weiyang's tone was very calm, and he slowly fell: "Ying Chu is an extremely smart person, and he is very cunning, few men are as ruthless as him, but it's a pity that ......"

Wang Zijin hurriedly asked, "What's the pity?" ”

Li Weiyang sighed lightly: "It's a pity that he is a person after all, and if he is a human being, he has love, hatred, hatred, seven emotions and six desires." He loves Empress Pei deeply, so Empress Pei is the fatal point. Once you embark on this bumpy love road, you will never be able to turn back, a person without flaws, after all, still has shortcomings, isn't it a pity? This gives us an opportunity to take advantage of, and it is not difficult to take his life if we use it well! ”

Wang Zijin looked at the other party in surprise, and a trace of thought in his heart became stronger and stronger, only to feel that the heart that had been tight suddenly relaxed. Although she didn't understand Li Weiyang's thoughts at this time, the other party's expression and tone were so determined and confident, which also gave her a reassurance.

Ying Chu had already stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, Weichen has a gift to give." ”

Everyone knows that Yingchu wants to give gifts, because Empress Pei wants to take this opportunity to promote him, so even the gift is set in the morning, it is a thousand-armed Guanyin elephant, or the famous jade carving national hand is invited to carve it in person. It's just that it took a lot of effort to find the prototype. When Ying Chu took out the thousand-armed Guanyin elephant, everyone's eyes couldn't help but widen.

In addition to the two hands of the Bodhisattva's chest, there are twenty hands on the left and right, each holding a knife, a gun, a whisk, dust, an umbrella, a mirror and a net bottle and other magical powers, and each has a single eye in each hand, which is actually forty-two arms and forty-two eyes. And this Guanyin has a kind face, and when you look at it, you feel a sense of peace of mind, and you have a compassionate mind to save sentient beings and suffering.

After carefully examining Guanyin's compassionate face, Wang Zijin couldn't help but be a little disappointed: "He really didn't use that portrait!" ”

Li Weiyang smiled: "He naturally won't use it, if he uses it, wouldn't he tell everyone that he has a disobedient heart to Empress Pei?" ”

Hearing this, Wang Zijin's heart jumped, turned his head to look at Li Weiyang, and said, "It seems that you are completely sure!" ”

Li Weiyang smiled: "If you are not sure, how dare I promise you?" ”

Pei Houguo said with a smile: "This thousand-armed Guanyin is indeed vivid and beautiful, plus this jade is thousands of miles from the deep sea, very precious and rare." Your Majesty, you must reward the great talent heavily! ”

When the emperor heard this, he didn't understand that Empress Pei wanted to take the opportunity to let Ying Chuguan be promoted to one level. He glanced at Ying Chu in disgust, but his face was indifferent, "Lord Ying, it's really hard!" It's just that I look at this thousand-armed Guanyin, it looks very similar to the Guanyin elephant in Daming Temple, are you carved according to the Guanyin in Daming Temple? ”

This clearly means that Ying Chu is lazy, and Ying Chu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the prototype of this statue is painted by the national hand Zhang Cheng himself, Weichen will never dare to cut corners, please rest assured." ”

The emperor smiled coldly, looked at Empress Pei and said: "It seems that this courtier is really loyal to you, this Jade Guanyin is really successful, I don't know how much effort it takes!" With this love for her minister, the queen should really relax. ”

Empress Pei looked at the emperor, as if she didn't understand: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Seeing that Yingchu paid tribute to the thousand-armed Guanyin, the prince's face was slightly mocking, and his eyes were clearly with a bit of hatred, but he just hung down skillfully to prevent outsiders from seeing it.

Princess Ali asked Li Weiyang softly: "I heard what you and Miss Wang said that day, it seems that you are going to do it today, what are you going to do next?" ”

There was something wrong with Wang Zijin, but the questions she asked were exactly the same. Li Weiyang knew that they were all very anxious, but he was not in a hurry and said: "It's not what I want to do, but it depends on what the fifth brother does." ”

Wang Zijin raised his eyebrows and said, "Fifth son? What is he going to do? ”

Li Weiyang looked not far away: "You didn't see it...... Fifth brother is drinking one cup after another today, does it seem that he has drunk a little too much? ”

Wang Zijin looked at Guo Dao, and saw that he was pulling Jing Wang Yuanying to drink one cup after another, and a flush also appeared on his handsome face, and he looked even more handsome. In the past, there was Yuan Lie, and these young men felt very depressed, just because Yuan Lie's demeanor was enough to overshadow anyone, but now that Yuan Lie is not there, he can win the limelight of Director Guo for a while. Many young ladies looked at him quietly, as if someone else was about to move. Not long after, Mrs. Qiao's daughter came over, her name was Qiao Hui. Qiao Hui looked at Li Weiyang, smiled and said, "Miss Guo, I haven't seen you for many days." ”

Li Weiyang smiled and said calmly: "Miss Qiao is polite." ”

Miss Qiao sat down next to Wang Zijin, and her smile was extraordinarily bright. Qiao Hui is only 17 years old this year, and she is born with a delicate appearance and a lively and cheerful personality. She has some friendship with Han Lin, so she has also met Li Weiyang in the past, and it is not strange that she came to say hello today. But as soon as she spoke, she said: "I heard that the fifth prince was injured some time ago, I don't know if he is okay now?" ”

Li Weiyang glanced at Qiao Hui and said with a smile: "Thank you Miss Qiao for your concern, my fifth brother's body is already fine." ”

A look of joy flashed on Qiao Hui's face, and then she glanced in the direction of Director Guo without a trace, and her smile deepened: "I've always wanted to visit Guo's mansion, but it's a pity that Miss Han always thinks I'm troublesome and refuses to take me there." ”

Li Weiyang said lightly: "Her marriage with the third brother is close, and she has been closed recently, and even I can't see it, and the unmarried bride is naturally not good to run to the Guo family, if Miss Qiao has a heart, she might as well come and see me." ”

Qiao Hui was even more overjoyed when she heard this, and her beautiful face was stunned. Wang Zijin smiled coldly, she was not used to seeing these girls who came to the door upside down, not to mention that although Director Guo had a bad mouth and hated his behavior, after all, it was not something that a cat or a dog could match. If this Miss Qiao in front of her is worthy of Director Guo in terms of appearance and life experience, it is a pity that there was a bad rumor in the past. When Mrs. Qiao had no career back then, she had a marriage contract with a friend, and she married Miss Qiao to the son of that family. Who knew that the friend had been defeated in his family for two years, so he had to bring his son to the door to ask for help. Who knew that the Qiao family tore up the marriage contract between the two parties without saying a word, and even beat people out with sticks. As soon as this matter came out, Wang Zijin naturally had three points of disgust for this Miss Qiao. At this moment, seeing her look like a nymphomaniac to Director Guo, Wang Zijin didn't know what was going on, and she said lightly: "Miss Qiao, I heard that although Guo Gongzi has recovered, his right hand will never be able to raise the sword again." Didn't Miss Qiao once say that she wanted to find a noble son who was both civil and military, but I was afraid that Guo Gongzi would not be able to climb high! ”

Hearing this, Qiao Hui's face changed, she didn't expect Wang Zijin to say it so bluntly, she couldn't help but stand up in a hurry, and said coldly: "I don't know when Miss Wang will be so close to the Guo family, and she also loves to talk nonsense, hum!" She snorted coldly, couldn't hide her shame, turned around and left.

Princess Ali looked at each other's backs in amazement, and looked back at the other two in surprise and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Li Weiyang said with a smile: "Zijin drove people away, what else can it be?" ”

Wang Zijin blushed and said, "Jia'er, you won't blame me for being troublesome, I just don't like Qiao Hui." ”

Li Weiyang looked at her, and his tone was very gentle: "I know what Zijin means, I also heard about the last time, it is human nature to hate the poor and love the rich in this world, and there is nothing strange about it." It's just that this Mrs. Qiao has gone a little too far, he can just cancel the marriage contract, why bother to beat the other party to serious injury? Such a person is indeed of low moral character...... Father's behavior was already so excessive, Miss Qiao didn't know how to close the door, and even recruited bees and butterflies everywhere, and participated in garden banquets everywhere, it can be seen that her temperament is not much better, such a woman, her parents will not agree to her entering the Guo Mansion, and it is better to cut off her thoughts earlier. Moreover, what you said is not wrong, my fifth brother is indeed injured, ordinary women can't match him, and those pretentious women also refuse to marry my fifth brother, so it's okay, you can let him choose his beloved. ”

When Wang Zijin heard this, he was a little surprised: "I listened to Jia'er, what you mean, it seems to be a little laissez-faire?" ”

Li Weiyang said with a smile: "The fifth brother is no longer the fifth son of Guo who was both civil and military, his mother has already sent a message, no matter whose girl he likes, as long as the family background is innocent, the character is good, and the temperament is gentle, it is just that, it does not have to be a high-ranking family, let alone a civil and military all-rounder...... These things don't do the slightest benefit for living at home. ”

Wang Zijin disagreed: "Marrying a wife naturally has to be one in a hundred, a person like Director Guo, oh, I'm not talking about how good others are." When she said this, her face seemed to be even redder, but she still looked at Li Weiyang and said insistently: "It's just that after all, he was born in the Qi State Mansion, and it is impossible for him to marry a woman from a small family no matter what." If it weren't for the hospitality in the future, would such a woman be able to go out of the hall, wouldn't it be a discredit to the Duke of Qi? ”

Wang Zijin is also good, as the saying goes: I would rather marry a maid than a little girl. Even if you can't marry the daughter of a big family, you have to marry a maid from a big family, and such a girl's family education is excellent. On the contrary, those small jasper, perennial firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar tea, and the cultivation is not a noble bearing.

Li Weiyang and Wang Zijin have different opinions, as long as Director Guo likes it, it doesn't matter what the other party's background is, so she just smiled and said: "Zijin, your idea is not wrong, it's just that my fifth brother has a more eccentric temperament, and he doesn't like ordinary girls." Especially those who are born into high-ranking families, arrogant or pretentious, the fifth brother is extremely disgusted, I think he is still suitable for those girls with a gentle temperament, as for the background, as long as I don't mind the Qi State Mansion, who dares to say anything? ”

Princess Ali nodded and said, "Yes, it's still our grassland girl who is enthusiastic and cheerful, and now that I think about it, I have a friend who admires the fifth prince very much!" ”

After she finished saying this, she saw that Wang Zijin's face turned slightly pale for some reason. Li Weiyang saw it in his eyes, but he smiled faintly and didn't say much.

Wang Zijin heard the meaning of Li Weiyang's words, but after all, she was arrogant and couldn't say anything, she just lowered her head and sighed softly, Li Weiyang was secretly telling her that the Duke of Qi did not want to marry the Wang family, because she and Guo Dao were not suitable. Although she originally had no intention of marrying Director Guo, she really couldn't stand being disliked by others in person, if she hadn't become friends with Li Weiyang earlier, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to help but refute. After forcing herself to press down, she said in a low voice: "It's hard to say about marriage, it's not that you can do whatever you want." After she said this, she felt speechless, but she stopped.

Li Weiyang glanced at her lightly, and said with a warm smile: "Yes, as the saying goes, there is a fate to meet thousands of miles away, but there is no chance to meet each other, there is no way for people to control such a thing as fate, maybe the fifth brother will meet the girl he likes tomorrow." ”

Wang Zijin looked at Li Weiyang steadily, and was about to say something, when something unexpected happened. Ying Chu retreated after receiving the reward, and the person had just walked to the banquet, when suddenly there was a "bang", Director Guo threw the wine glass to the ground, stood up suddenly, pointed at Ying Chu and said coldly: "What are you doing here?" ”

Ying Chu had already stepped out with one foot, but when he heard this, he stopped, turned to look at him and said, "What does Guo Gongzi mean by this?" ”

Originally, Ying Chu just walked past Director Guo, but I don't know what happened, everyone heard the sound of Director Guo's wine glass falling to the ground, and they all looked at Ying Chu with suspicious eyes for a while, and sure enough, they heard Director Guo say in annoyance: "Lord Ying, even if you have just been rewarded by Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, you shouldn't be so arrogant, I drink here in a good manner, where did I provoke you, why did you deliberately hit me?" ”

Ying Chu frowned and said, "Guo Gongzi, don't be dazzled, right?" How could I ever do such a thing? ”

Guo Daoyi was on the desk, with a sneering smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was drunk: "Lord Ying, since you have done something wrong, you can't say a word, why do you have to be so undignified?" This is in front of His Majesty, do you dare to lie casually?! ”

Ying Chu couldn't help but be slightly annoyed, and he said coldly: "Then I'm sorry, Guo Gongzi." After speaking, he was about to walk forward again, but Director Guo had already blocked him with a dodge, and his face was cold: "Say sorry, is this the end?" ”

Ying Chu's brows furrowed even tighter, and the half of the silver mask emitted a faint cold light under the moonlight, but this was not as cold as the cold under his eyes, and he said word by word: "I don't know what Guo Gongzi wants to do?" ”

Director Guo smiled faintly, his expression was full of indifference, "Naturally, I want to pour wine to make amends!" ”

Ying Chu snorted coldly: "You Director Guo has no fame, you have to sit here today, but you are just under the shadow of the Duke of Qi, and I am an official of the DPRK and China, why do you ask me to pour you wine and apologize?" What a system! ”

Director Guo said with a smile: "A minister like you, who has always only known how to exclude dissidents, cover the sky with one hand, and fake the tiger's might, where do you have the slightest bit of the dignity of a courtier, and you are worthy of reasoning with me?!" What kind of family is my Qi State Mansion, what kind of thing are you! ”

Ying Chu couldn't help but be furious, he has always been a person who has endured his skills, although he has been suppressed, but he has received too many cold eyes in the recent period, so that he has been pressed to the extreme, he couldn't help but have a cold light in his eyes, and said with a gloomy face: "Guo Gongzi, what is the occasion now, you have to go crazy here!" This is a hall, not a market! You are talking to me with such an attitude, it is simply a ruffian and hooligan's behavior, and you have defiled the door of the Guogong Mansion! If you are not convinced, you can call your father to decide with me! ”

"My father?" Director Guo sneered and said: "My father is a dignified Duke of Qi, the minister of His Majesty's humerus, and now he is still fighting bloody battles on the front line, what kind of thing are you, why are you on a par with him, and you dare to ask him to come to you to reason!" Ying Chu, you are about to turn the sky out of the sky with a word, do you really think you are a great character? You're a traitor to the end! A eunuch deserves to show off his might here?! ”

The word eunuch repeatedly touched Ying Chu's nerves, yes, he was a eunuch, but he used to be a normal man. This has become a hidden pain in his heart, but Director Guo still keeps mentioning this matter again and again, and he forcibly suppresses his monstrous anger: "Since Guo Gongzi is so rude, I have no choice but to ask His Majesty and Niangniang to decide!" He didn't want to say any more, but turned to leave.

Director Guo's face remained unchanged, and he snorted coldly: "Slow, a big man, he wants to run under the skirt of the queen mother and wag his tail to beg for mercy, why are you embarrassed?" Ah, I forgot, are you a mother's dog! ”

Director Guo was so unscrupulous, which shocked Ying Chu, after all, he was an official of the dynasty, and at this moment, he couldn't help but laugh angrily: "Guo Gongzi, you are really daring!" I don't even pay attention to my mother! After speaking, he pushed Director Guo away and walked forward, who knew that Director Guo laughed, grabbed the robe on Ying Chu's body and slammed it, and said loudly: "What are you doing in your clothes, you are still wearing clothes?" Get on the ground and scream twice! ”

Ying Chu hadn't reacted yet, only to feel that the belt on his body was broken, he turned around and wanted to be angry but stunned, I don't know when there was an extra scroll on the ground, he hadn't made a move, Director Guo had already taken the first step to snatch it, and said loudly: "I don't know what kind of treasure thing it is, but it can make Lord Ying still hide in his arms?" ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked over, and the picture scroll slowly unfolded. Ying Chu's eyes immediately became cold, he stepped forward and seemed to want to grab the scroll, but Director Guo's movements were faster than him, and Ying Chu's outstretched hand was grabbed by King Jing, King Jing clasped his wrist back, his hand was extremely heavy, but he smiled on his face: "Why should Lord Ying worry?" Guo Gongzi is just joking with you, don't be angry! ”

He looked like he was fighting, as if he was afraid that Ying Chu would rush up to find trouble with Director Guo. But the expression was very strange, he quickly winked at Director Guo, Director Guo had already reached the crowd in a flash, and deliberately opened the scroll in front of everyone, and then someone exclaimed: "Oh, it turned out to be Guanyin!" ”

Director Guo immediately smiled and said: "Lord Win is really loyal to his mother, and he actually put this Guanyin in his arms." But it's not right, this Guanyin is different from the Guanyin just now, why is it eight points like Niangniang? After saying this, people's faces became very bright in an instant.

King Jing sneered, but pretended to be surprised on his face: "This Guanyin is really seven or eight points like Niangniang, it's so strange, Lord Win, you don't use this portrait to carve, but you just put it away and hide it in your arms, why is this?" ”

Everyone also thought so in their hearts, before Ying Chu searched for famous painters in the market, asked them to draw the appearance of the thousand-armed Guanyin, and then found a first-class jade craftsman to carve it, but the carved thousand-armed Guanyin was completely different from the picture he carefully treasured in his arms now. This scene is really weird, since Ying Chu doesn't use this portrait, why did he hide this picture scroll in his arms? Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but show a look of panic on their faces, and Ying Chu had already snatched the scroll and stuffed it back into his arms.

Seeing this scene, the prince's face became extremely ugly, of course he knew why Ying Chu hid this picture scroll that resembled the queen mother in his arms, because he had never given up on the queen mother, and still had that kind of dirty thoughts! Thinking of this, he hated it to the extreme! But what can the prince do, can he stand up and explain it to everyone at once? Unless he's crazy! But if he didn't say anything, it confirmed Yingchu's impression in everyone's hearts. Ying Chu didn't care whether the prince was dead or alive, but this matter involved Empress Pei, thinking of this, he immediately stepped forward and laughed loudly: "Guo Gongzi, you really drank too much this time!" ”

Director Guo hurriedly held his head and said dizzily: "Oh, it's true, I did drink too much, Lord Ying is really sorry, I frightened you!" ”

Ying Chu almost hated him, but it was not good to be angry in front of everyone, just because the more angry he was, the more people would see his thoughts, thinking of this, he swallowed the hatred in his heart, and secretly gritted his teeth and said: "Guo Gongzi doesn't have to mind, I won't take it to heart!" With that, he turned quickly and walked away.

After Ying Chu left, everyone began to talk about it.

"Hey, how can you say that this Lord Ying would inexplicably put the picture scroll of Queen Pei in his arms?"

"Who knows, I really can't understand that he, a eunuch, actually has such thoughts about Empress Pei!"

Someone retorted, "What do you know? Back then, this Lord Ying was a house slave next to Empress Pei, and the two got along day and night, day and night, I am afraid that something should not have been derived! ”

As soon as the words came out, everyone commented: "You are so bold that you dare to say such a thing!" Then there was whispering and strange laughter.
