I don't like the pomp and circumstance of hugging and hugging each other by nature, and I have never been accustomed to bringing servants, and when I came to the palace gate on a fast horse alone, I was able to catch up with Jin Zishan, who went back half an hour earlier than him.

It stands to reason that the inner court guards should be familiar with the personal eunuchs of the palace concubines and princesses, but they don't seem to be too familiar with Jin Zishan. Seeing that Jin Zishan showed the waist card for entering and exiting according to the rules, he clearly went out of the palace to Yang's mansion not long ago, and after introducing himself, he explained the purpose of Yang Zhi's appearance outside the palace gate today, and the guards on duty were able to let him go, and he hurriedly entered the palace first.

In this section, Yang Zhi saw in his eyes, and his nostalgia for Jin Zishan's true identity was even more layered.

Most of the three thousand inner court guards had been on duty in the Yang Mansion, and Yang Zhi knew the purpose of the emperor's special favor, and he instinctively had an aversion to them from the beginning, and he usually got along with them quite well, but he never had the idea of deliberately befriending anyone. It was because the guards on duty outside the palace gate knew Yang Zhi, but Yang Zhi had no special impression of them. Although it was only at dusk yesterday that he found a ballast to kill an unlucky guy and knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, but now everyone knows that this uncle is holding the royal gold medal, and whoever he kills is killed in vain, even if there is no such thing, no one has the guts to touch his moldy head anymore.

With Jin Zishan opening the way, Yang Zhi even saved the cumbersome rules of needing to tell him what was going on in the palace first, and then waiting for the summons. Not only did no one dare to stop the guards, but they stepped forward to salute one after another as if they had seen their own father. Yang Zhi, who usually had a lazy smile on his face, inevitably said hello to them, but today he really didn't want to waste time, and he didn't even have the mind to nod his head so-so, so he just walked forward with his head held high with his face held high.

Along the way, the number of guards on duty in the palace has increased significantly compared to before the emperor's imperial expedition, but it is no different from when Yang Zhi entered the palace a few days ago to ask to see the queen and Concubine Mei, and the golden dragon on his chest, which he relied on several times to warn and save his life, did not react. Rao is like this, Yang Zhi still doesn't dare to be careless.

Mei has always been known for her gentleness and virtuousness, but she is actually a woman who is extremely sensitive to politics and knows the art of Tao. In order to avoid arousing the queen's suspicion, Concubine Mei is usually extremely low-key. But without his mother's nod, no matter what name Zhao Qi was in, no matter what the purpose, it was absolutely impossible to invite civil and military ministers to come to the palace for a banquet.

is unusually indescribable and can be called a demon, why did Concubine Mei go against the norm and allow her son to do this? Yang Zhi's mind didn't stop for a moment, and he was a little confused by many clues for a while, and then pulled back to his thoughts when he heard Jin Zishan come to invite him to a banquet: Concubine Mei's mother and son's every move in the palace could not hide from the eyes of the queen and Wei Sudi, Zhao Qi's banquet was at least acquiesced by them, and even at their behest, today's meal is probably not so delicious.

Since ancient times, the mother is expensive by her son, Concubine Mei has a son and a daughter for the emperor, King Ning's biological mother Concubine Wu died early, and Concubine Xiao of King Kang has nothing else to do except King Kang, and she is also unknown, and Concubine Mei's status in the harem is second only to the queen. The son King Yue held a banquet, and the ministers who went to the banquet must greet his mother and concubine according to the court etiquette. But in a situation like today, as long as Concubine Mei didn't burn her brain, she wouldn't steal the limelight from the queen, and she would definitely find an excuse to avoid it.

For Yang Zhi, not only is it a courtier, but Concubine Mei has been promoted to a mother-in-law, knowing that Concubine Mei will never show up to meet any foreign minister today, but she can't lack courtesy. No matter how anxious he is to meet King Yue, he is not short of this bit of fancy kung fu. Sure enough, as soon as she walked outside the door of Concubine Mei's bedroom, she was stopped by the eunuch on duty with a smile on her face: Concubine Mei's phoenix body is inconvenient to meet guests, and Feihuhou doesn't have to be polite to do his best.

Are you "inconvenient"? Lao Tzu is more "inconvenient" than you! Yang Zhi suddenly felt that the people around Concubine Mei's mother and son seemed to be weird. If you have a good time this time, you will have to come and go here often in the future. smiled faintly and didn't hesitate, so he threw a few hundred taels of silver tickets and turned around and left.

"Mei Xue did not refuse to descend in the spring, and the saugers put aside the pen fee to comment on the chapter. The plum and snow are three points white, but the snow loses the plum and a piece of fragrance. As soon as Yang Zhi entered the side hall where King Yue lived, he saw the stinky boy standing in front of the window from a distance, looking at the snow scene in the palace, and was shaking his head and reciting Yongxue poems.

Zhao Qi is definitely not the kind of innocent and ignorant child, regardless of whether today's banquet is his whim or the queen's instructions, just at this moment, this peace and leisure that does not know life and death has to be secretly admired.

Yang Zhilang laughed and said: "His Royal Highness King Yue is so comfortable! ”

Zhao Qi had a completely different face compared to yesterday, and he stepped forward and grinned: "Brother-in-law, as I expected, I knew that you would be able to understand what I meant and come immediately!" ”

"Uh, this...... Thanks to the prince's kind invitation, Weichen naturally did not dare to refuse. ”

"My brother-in-law is so careful, he must still be blaming me in his heart?"

"How dare Wechen?" Yang Zhi only shook a shot and stopped going in circles: "The prince has sent an edict that the banquet will be held at noon, and I will come at the end of the morning."

Since the prince had expected me to arrive early, he should have known that I had not come to the palace to catch breakfast. The prince has not yet reached the year of opening the government and building the government, and he was appointed to supervise the country because of the current situation. Speaking from the heart, Concubine Mei and the prince's previous caution and wisdom were not wrong, why did they suddenly invite the ministers to a banquet today? Are you trusted? What is the purpose? The prince seems to be young and lazy and light with the dust, but in fact he is talented and has a clear mood, and he should know that the situation is now affecting the whole body, please be sure to tell me frankly! ”

Yang Zhi's expression was awe-inspiring, and his words were solemn, but Zhao Qi still said calmly: "Actually, you might as well say it more bluntly." Don't you just want to say that my mother and I have no intention of arguing for the prince, and I have not had time to form a force since I was young, and the reason why my father ordered me to supervise the country was only because I could not find a second prince in Chang'an at that time besides me. My father is eloquent, and the three royal brothers are also outstanding in the world. I don't think there's anything wrong with that! And what you mean by being entrusted by others refers to the queen and Wei Su, right? ”

Yang Zhisen said: "Since you understand everything, it's best to give me a solid account as soon as possible." It's not that I'm scaring you, you can't afford to play this game! Regardless of the outcome, we will definitely not do anything to you, and it will be difficult for others to say! ”

"So what?" Zhao Qi smiled at this time, and said with a straight face: "It is said that people are valuable in self-knowledge, but it is not necessary to sing a strong wind and think of a warrior to be ambitious." Didn't you ask me yesterday where I came from? I can tell you that I am the son of my father, and I am the descendant of Emperor Taizu! Home is the country, the country is the home, the skin does not exist, and the hair will be attached? I'm still allowed to think about it at this time

Can you afford to play? Are there any other options I have? ”

"Yes, I had only watched from the sidelines, and I knew what the situation was. Since it was rumored that his father was sick on the way to the class, Zhou Ting, the general of the forbidden army, suddenly became seriously ill, and the deputy general of the forbidden army, Zhang Tianxing, promoted the eleven captains who led the soldiers and horses, followed closely, and the palace guards suddenly doubled as if facing the enemy, I am neither stupid nor blind, how can I not see the meaning? The next day, you intended to temporarily take the position of general of the forbidden army, and after being frustrated by Wei Su on the grounds of his father's imperial approval, he immediately announced that you held the royal gold medal as if I had been there. What you just said is not just you, but you, I think in addition to you, Mr. Xu and Brother Qin, and even Uncle Huang and Geng Chao are probably not idle, right? How is it? I'm not wrong about anything, am I? ”

This kid is not in a hurry, but he has said a lot of words, and he is stunned that there is still not a word about the topic that Yang Zhi is most concerned about.

Seeing that time is constantly passing, if you miss the opportunity, you will be controlled by others, and it will be extremely difficult to turn the situation around. Yang Zhi couldn't wait to kick this little bastard to death on the spot, gritted his teeth and asked, "Didn't the prince trick me into deliberately pestering me?" Are you trying to kill me? ”

"Yes and no." Zhao Qi's immature little face was full of arrogance, and he pretended to be old and said: "Father Zeng Yun: Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face did not change, so he could be called a great husband in the world." Brother-in-law, your cunning and martial arts skills are unique in the world, how can you not have the style of a general, so you can't hold your breath? If it is said that there is courage in arranging a formation to meet the enemy, then there is also a banquet core for setting up a banquet to entertain guests. What your heart desires is a matter of who wins or loses, and you are the core of today's feast! Others may not dare not come, but I know you dare. If you don't come today, it will be meaningless for me to spend all my time feasting on my ministers. But I'm sure you'll come! ”

Yang Zhi said angrily: "It's an honor to be able to win the reputation of the prince's banquet core." Congratulations, you guessed it right, didn't I stand in front of you alive and listen to your teachings? I'm about to vomit blood! ”

Zhao Qi said coldly: "Then I'll tell you honestly!" It was my own idea to feast on the ministers today. Not only did I convince the mother last night, but I didn't have much to say to get the queen's permission. Yesterday, the prince's army reported that his father's holy car had been attacked several times, and you provoked and killed a guard in the palace. I don't need to say more about what you mean by doing this, right? Zhao Tianyang is already extremely jealous of you, losing face in front of you is still a trivial matter, and the most important thing is that he can't figure out how you will move next. So he came to me overnight to complain, apparently respecting the identity of the prince of my prison country, but in fact, he was unwilling and did not dare to tear his face and conflict with you face to face, trying to find out through my mouth! ”

"And I'd love to see, what the hell do you want to do? When I arrived at your house, it was getting late. It took you a long time to greet me, and I took advantage of this gap to pretend to ask the servants inadvertently, and learned that Mr. Xu and Brother Qin were in your mansion, and it was after you killed the guards that you sent someone to invite them after dinner. I thought, you're deliberating how to move the camera. I came because of the death of the guard, and I had to claim that I was visiting at night on business. You usually don't like the restraints of those cumbersome rituals the most, but last night you deliberately came to the public with one hand to the public. I know that you are also for my own good, and make it clear to the queen and Wei Su that you have completely left me aside, and do not want me to be involved in the danger. And the explanation of the reason for your murder is almost nonsense, and you made up a big hat with ill intentions to rebel and buckle it on Zhao Tianyang's head, and threatened to take his life. Others may not know about me, but they know that if you say you want to kill him, you will really kill him! ”

Zhao Qi said this and took a deep breath: "It's already time for me to come out of the house and return to the palace, it's not early, and there are only two days before the New Year, according to common sense, there should be no more pedestrians in the streets and alleys." But I saw it last night, and there are quite a few of them.

Isn't it like you're both stepping up your arrangement? At that point, I was absolutely sure that the situation was at a critical juncture! Once the two sides brazenly take action, the situation will be out of control. As the prince of Great Xia, I have no reason to stand by. So after I returned to the palace, I thought about it for a long time and decided to have a banquet for the ministers today. ”

Zhao Qi's words made his heart feel cold: This kid lives in the deep palace, but he can look at the overall situation, and he can tell the story without the slightest deviation! If he is helped to ascend to the throne, he will only be more difficult to deal with than the crown prince in the future!

Yang Zhi didn't know what to say for a while, so he casually slapped an innocuous sycophant to wait for the following: "The prince's eyes are like torches and insight, I deeply admire it." ”

Zhao Qigan smiled: "You must be secretly laughing at my inadequacy, since the situation no longer allows me to retreat, I still have the courage to gamble." Didn't you want me to give you an account? In the name of holding a banquet today, I am here to resolve the crisis. Not only to convince you, but also to persuade the civil and military ministers who came to the banquet: abide by the duty of a man and a minister, and do not listen to rumors. After welcoming his father's return to the dynasty, he wholeheartedly supported the crown prince! ”

Although Yang Zhi had been mentally prepared for this uninspired answer, he couldn't help but feel a sudden sinking in his heart: if this kid pretended to be stupid all the way to the end, it would be understandable. It can be said that he is determined to hold the prince's stinky feet!

Stunned for a moment, he didn't get angry and smiled: "The so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, and the prince's analysis is wonderful, and it turns out that he is still dedicated to making wedding dresses for others!" It's true that you're not very old and intelligent, but we're not fools, so why do you think you have the ability to convince us? You keep saying that you are the son of the emperor and the descendant of Emperor Taizu of Great Xia, you might as well touch your conscience and think about it: Is it really a rumor that has been widely circulated by outsiders? I think you know better than anyone else! ”

"Lord Wang, you lured me here to spend a long time, and you have bought Wei Su a lot of time. I think the queen will not be stingy to praise you a few times, and you can take it safely. Please forgive the blessing of the ministers, I don't have time to eat and can't eat the feast of the prince, so I can only retire. Lord, you can do it yourself! ”

Yang Zhi was entangled by him and talked nonsense for so long, and he held back the fire. Banquet? Lao Tzu wants to make you unable to eat! After looking at the sky, it was already over, but fortunately, it was not too late to rush to beat the Dengwen drum according to Xu Wenhan's agreement. Leaving Zhao Qi to ignore it, he walked out of the hall without looking back.

"Yang Zhi, you are so arrogant! Stand for this king! I only heard Zhao Qi shouting behind him: "If you listen to this king's words, it won't delay you much." When the time comes, whether you leave or stay, listen to the convenience! ”
