Chapter 62: Drunk

Since he was reused by the emperor, Bai Lichen has become more and more cautious in his words and actions.

For the crown prince, there are fewer opportunities to find trouble with Bailichen, and even if it is an assassination, he needs to care about whether he will be discovered by the emperor.

This wedding banquet is a great opportunity.

The side concubine's wedding banquet seemed a little casual, Liu Lingxi sat in the room, looking at the lively outside, and felt a little apprehensive.

She is also satisfied with being able to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

She has always thought that she is beautiful, and if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sees it, she will definitely like it in her heart.

"Miss, it's so lively outside, I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to like you so much, even this banquet has been held, the slave maid heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't have to hold a banquet if he married a side concubine!"

The maid next to her said these words excitedly, but she was sincerely happy for her own young lady.

At this juncture, the voice of the maid came from outside.

"Concubine Niangniang, the eldest lady is coming to you."

The eldest lady is the prince's concubine, she is the cousin and nephew of the queen mother, and her status is not known how much higher than Liu Lingxi.

"Quick, Qinglian, go and open the door for the eldest lady."

The maids beside her were instructed to welcome people in.

The eldest lady didn't mean to embarrass the side concubine, but just came over to tell a few words according to the usual practice, but there was no other meaning.

"You have to rest in the house, today is the first night you have newly entered the house, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely stay with you, don't close the bedroom door later, otherwise the prince will know about it, and his heart will definitely be unhappy."

Liu Lingxi nodded, subconsciously ignoring the pity in the eldest lady's eyes.

This girl is really pitiful, she was born with the appearance of the country's beauty and fragrance, if she had married His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in two years in the morning, she would not have what she has now, but now she can't.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes beauties, but he has more important things to do.

After three rounds of wine at the banquet, the fourth prince was already drunk and unconscious, and Bai Lichen's face was also a little red.

Although his alcohol consumption is not very good, he will not get drunk at the banquet today, only a few sips, who knows that it is already like this.

"Third brother, why do you see that you are so drunk...... Or...... Go and rest for a while......"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Lihong fell on the table, and with a bang, the four princes on the side were frightened.

The prince at a table drank seven meat and eight vegetables, and after a while, a small servant came over and hurriedly said something in Bai Lichen's ear.

"You said that the third imperial concubine fell into the water, but now it's okay."

Bai Lichen held his forehead and followed behind the visitor, his face changed slightly.

"The third princess is fine, but she hasn't woken up yet, His Royal Highness the Third Prince should go over and take a look."

The little guy lowered his head, so that people could not see clearly.

Mu Qing was called away by the good lady for a while, and when he came back, he looked over again, and found that the third prince Bailichen was gone, and after looking around, he didn't see Bailichen's appearance, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.

This is not in the palace of the third prince, but in the palace of the crown prince.

And the princes at the table have drunk too much, and obviously few are awake, what if Bailichen takes the opportunity to be taken away?

"Xin'er, hurry, go and find out where His Royal Highness the Third Prince is now, I always have a very bad premonition, I don't know why."

Mu Qing urged a few times, and asked a few little maids, but they didn't know where Bai Lichen was, only the mother-in-law who was in charge of sweeping the sa said something carefully.

"The slave seems to have watched the third prince go to the backyard."

In the backyard, Liu Lingxi is now in the backyard.

If this is deliberately arranged by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, then his purpose is probably to let Bailichen see Liu Lingxi, if the two of them really meet, it will be impossible to explain when the time comes.

"Mu Qing, you go and arrange it, just say that I am not feeling well, let the people in the prince's mansion vacate a guest room for me, and say that I am a little drunk, and then you go and take a look first, and come to me later."

Xin'er knew that this matter was not trivial, the expression on her face changed, and she immediately did as Mu Qing instructed.

Bai Lichen, when he was taken to the door of Liu Lingxi's bedroom, he also noticed that something was wrong, his body was very hot now, the expression on his face changed a little, his heart was a little hot, and he was eager to find something to vent.

"Third prince, go in, Niangniang is waiting for you inside."

The little guy smiled sinisterly, and was about to open the door to push Bailichen in, when suddenly a voice came from behind him.

"Third Highness, are you in the wrong place, my bedroom is not here."

Mu Qing saw that the little guy was about to go inside with Bailichen in tow, and knew that he couldn't let Bailichen be dragged in like this, so he stood up.

The little guy obviously didn't expect Mu Qing to appear at this time, and the expression on his face hesitated for a moment, but it immediately became hideous.

"Third Imperial Concubine, what do you mean by this."

"What do you mean...... I want to ask you what this bold slave means, this is Liu Lingxi's bedroom, it is a new house, you take His Royal Highness the Third Prince here, you want to kill him. ”

Mu Qing grabbed Bai Lichen's hand, her body was weak, naturally she couldn't compete with the person in front of her, and her face changed slightly.

"The third princess still doesn't have to be nosy."

The little guy snorted coldly and pushed the person in front of him away at once.

Mu Qing sat down on the ground and screamed in pain.

Bai Lichen's consciousness was already blurred, but the moment he heard Mu Qing's voice, he suddenly sobered up a little, pushed away the little guy in front of him, and stood beside Mu Qing.

"I've been drugged, take me away......"

His voice was hoarse, his face changed slightly, and his eyes were full of threat when he looked at the little guy.

The little guy wanted to do something more, but after hesitating for a moment, a heart's cry came from outside.

"Mother, why did you get here!"

The little guy was worried that he would be seen, so he had to give up the person in front of him and run away from the side carefully.

Now Mu Qing doesn't have the time to take care of the little guy in front of her, she is already very hard just holding Bai Lichen in front of her, his body is terrible, like a stove.

"Niangniang, what's the matter, Your Highness......"

Xin'er was a little scared when she saw Bai Lichen's appearance, because the three princes obviously looked a little wrong.

"I guess I was drugged in a wine glass, if I'm not mistaken, someone will come in a while, and we'll be standing here......"

As soon as Mu Qing's words fell, there was a sound of footsteps over there, she took Bai Lichen with her, even if she wanted to get out, there was no way, and the three of them stood at the door of the room.

"What's the matter, third child, what are you doing standing here!"

It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Emperor who came, and at today's banquet, the Emperor was considered to have given His Royal Highness the Crown Prince enough face, and he actually came to the Prince's mansion in person.

"I've seen the emperor."

Mu Qing secretly hated the prince for being so ruthless, and his face changed.

"Third Imperial Concubine, why are you at the door of the side concubine's bedroom with the third child!"

The emperor's face had changed, and he must have suspected that his third son had done something unseemly.

"Your Majesty, this ...... That's a bit ...... The third prince was drunk and shouted to make a hole for His Royal Highness the Prince......"

Mu Qing has a daughter's family, and when he said these words, he naturally had to put on a somewhat shy posture, Bai Lichen was already drunk, but he still retained some sanity, and he smiled at the prince.

"Second brother, you ...... in previous years When I married the crown princess, I was not in good health...... Didn't celebrate the second brother well......"

Seeing this, Xin'er knew that her young lady was trying to dispel the emperor's doubts.

"Niangniang just pulled the three princes and didn't let them come, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would find someone to make trouble in the cave room, but the three princes didn't listen to any persuasion, and went this way one by one."

These words, coupled with Bailichen's drunken appearance, make people have to believe three points.

"The third brother also values your brother, he was really not in good health at the beginning, but the wine in your house is inevitably too strong, how can you make the third child drink like this?"

The emperor glanced at the crown prince, obviously a little dissatisfied with the prince, and the prince knew that his plan this time was a complete failure, so he could only nod slightly.

"What my father said is that the sons and daughters are not thoughtful, so they let people help the third brother to rest."

"Don't bother His Royal Highness the Prince, just take the Third Prince's Royal Highness down to rest."

How could Mu Qing dare to hand over someone to the prince in front of him? After saluting slightly, he left with Bailichen.

He had been enduring the restlessness in his heart, and now he was helped to the room, completely unable to sit still, he was holding Mu Qing's hand and was unwilling to let go.

Xin'er was sent by Mu Qing to ask for a doctor, she held Bai Lichen's hand tightly, and secretly prayed in her heart that nothing would happen.

The doctor in the prince's mansion was unreliable, and Xin'er went to the street to invite the old doctor who usually saw the third prince's mansion, but it was late after about a quarter of an hour.

Bai Lichen has completely lost his mind, if it weren't for his amazing restraint, I'm afraid Mu Qing wouldn't be sitting here in a good position now.

"Doctor, how is the situation of His Royal Highness the Third Prince?"

"Back to the words of the third princess, His Royal Highness the Third Prince has been hit by the aphrodisiac incense, and he can't wake up for a while, the old man has a pair of medicinal herbs here, after you give it to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, he will feel better, and he will rest for a few hours, and it will be fine."

The old doctor's eyes narrowed slightly, he knew that this was the prince's mansion, and there were some things that should not be said, so he didn't ask anything, and after giving the medicine, he hurriedly left the mansion with the medicine box, leaving Mu Qing and Xin'er to take care of Bailichen.
