Chapter 62: The Garden Party

I have to say that as Su Chenyu gradually grew up, the emperor became more and more unable to benefit him.

Especially in recent years, Su Chenyu's power has slowly developed. The bones hardened, and others were not as obedient as before. In the past six months, he can still feel that sometimes Su Chenyu deliberately provokes him and wants to see his reaction.

The emperor must not allow such a thing to happen, he must take advantage of Su Chenyu's failure to gain a firm foothold and cut him to the roots.

The arrival of Wei Zheng this time is a good opportunity, not to mention that if he wants to marry Jiang Luoan, he must be at odds with the prince.

The emperor asked someone to secretly invite Wei Zheng to discuss his plan with him.

Wei Zheng didn't expect the emperor to see him alone, and after entering the imperial study, he saluted and sat down without hesitation.

After serving tea and snacks, the palace maids lined up and went out.

waited until the door was closed before the emperor spoke, "I invited Gongzi Wei to come over this time to discuss something with you." Is Wei Gongzi willing to join forces with me to obtain the secret treasure in the prince's room together? ”

Su Chenyu collected many rare treasures when he didn't know, but when he offered his birthday gift, he was only willing to pick out the most useless East China Sea Night Pearl to give to him.

Wei Zheng almost thought that he had heard it wrong, he was a little amused and a little disdainful, "What the emperor said is interesting. Don't you want the prince's things, why do you want to join forces with me, an outsider? ”

It was really unheard of for Emperor Longchen to plot his son's things with him, an outsider. He was also afraid that there would be deception in it.

The emperor sighed and said leisurely: "Wei Gongzi doesn't know my difficulties. Su Chenyu is actually not my own son, but the son of my late brother. In order to appease those who supported his father, I had no choice but to make him the crown prince. ”

I see. No wonder the father and son love each other on the surface, but behind the scenes they are-for-tat.

The emperor continued: "If this can be done, I will make the decision to marry that Jiang girl to you." ”

Wei Zheng thought for a while and agreed to cooperate with the emperor.

The emperor and the crown prince are not in harmony, and the foundation of the country is unstable, which is also extremely beneficial to Wei Yanguo.

Wei Zheng asked him, "I don't know what the secret treasure the emperor wants to obtain?" ”

The emperor glanced at him, probably thinking that even if he didn't say it now, he would let him know in the future, "It's a flute, a jade bone flute." ”

Wei Zheng is interested, this can never be a simple flute, otherwise how could the emperor want to get it in a big way.

"I wonder what's so magical about this jade bone flute?"

This time, the emperor is not ready to tell the truth. If its magic was really known by Wei Zheng, wouldn't he have to guard against one more person.

He said: "Actually, there is nothing too special, just a relic of my beloved." In addition, when you play the flute, you can clear your mind and refresh your mind. ”

Wei Zheng nodded, half-convinced. He didn't believe that this jade bone flute could only purify the mind and nourish the mind, and it definitely had a greater use.

He said, "Does the emperor know where this secret treasure was hidden by Su Chenyu now?" Even if you steal it in the past, you need to know the exact location. ”

The emperor shook his head, "I don't know for the time being." ”

Wei Zheng smiled, "Then it's better to send someone to add a flavor to the prince's bowl, he has suffered enough, and he will naturally say it." ”

Watching him say vicious words lightly, the emperor had a feeling that he was seeking skin with the tiger.

A deal was made with His Majesty the Emperor, and Wei Zheng has been debauched these days. He still couldn't help but want to meet Jiang Luoan, so he told the emperor that he held a garden party in the name of the emperor and sent invitations to many famous ladies.

Jiang Luoan was the first to receive the post. Although this garden party was held in the name of the emperor, the person who sent the invitation was always by Wei Zheng's side.

She didn't want to see Wei Zheng at all now, so she said that she had been unwell recently and didn't want to go out, so she refused the invitation.

Jiang Aotian knew who sent the invitation, and then let her go.

Jin Zhier also received this invitation. When she found out who was hosting the fair, she was very happy.

There are not many people invited to the garden party, they are all women from the city. Some women didn't show up to avoid suspicion, and some didn't bother to participate in the activities of the Wei Zheng Office, so only some young women came.

Jin Zhier also deliberately dressed up for this day. At the emperor's birthday banquet, she saw the handsome and upright prince of Wei Yanguo at a glance. At the beginning, dancing to compete for the limelight also had a little bit of wanting him to notice his careful thoughts.

This is such a good opportunity, I heard that Jiang Luoan still refused, how could he not seize the opportunity?

But in the whole garden party, Wei Zheng was a little lacking in interest. His original intention was to invite Jiang Luoan to come with him, but who would have thought that she would directly refuse.

Looking at the beautiful women competing in front of him, he still couldn't arouse his interest. These delicate flowers raised in the greenhouse are so fragile that they seem to crumble when pinched.

What's more, Wei Zheng looked at Jin Zhi'er, who had been circling around him, and such a woman dressed in fancy clothes was constantly showing her courtesy, which made him even more impetuous.

Jin Zhi'er saw his impatience, and was a little sad and aggrieved. She knew that Wei Zheng would definitely not be interesting to her now, but she definitely didn't believe that he could not be moved in the face of a beauty's deliberate embrace.

"Come, Wei Gongzi, I don't know if you are still used to it when you first came here, the little girl toasts you." Jin Zhi'er refilled Wei Zheng's empty cup with wine, handed it to him, and poured herself another glass.

She raised her cup and wanted to drink with Wei Zheng, but the words of blessing were still on her lips, and Wei Zheng drank it all with the cup.

Jin Zhi'er was a little embarrassed and froze in place with her cup. Wei Zheng didn't seem to see her, and poured another glass to himself.

Jin Zhi'er smiled reluctantly and drank her cup to the sky.

She touched her nose, and was about to turn around and walk away, when a man in black came out of nowhere and pushed her and Wei Zheng forward fiercely.

They were sitting by the lake drinking, and they both fell into the lake at the moment.

Jin Zhi'er can't swim, and when she falls into the water, she wraps her hands and feet around Wei Zheng like aquatic plants. Wei Zheng was so tightly bound by her that he couldn't break free at all, and he choked on water during the struggle.

The ladies who came to the garden party were stunned and didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, the head of the Jin family passed by the garden party and came in by the way, and happened to see the scene of the two falling into the water. He immediately sent someone to fish them up.

Jin Zhi'er choked on less water and recovered quickly. Wei Zheng was much worse than her, and she lay in bed for several days.

When Jiang Luoan heard about this, he was extremely glad that he did not participate in the garden party.
