Chapter 83: Improper Relationship
Sure enough, even under the favor of the emperor, the emperor's face was obviously not very good when he heard such words. Wen Qiao saw the prince on the opposite side slowly stand up, and he put the wine glass down.
"Erchen didn't mean that, did the imperial brother over-interpret it? Besides, wouldn't it be a little too unreasonable to talk about this on Huang Ama's birthday? The crown prince and the third prince looked at each other, and neither of them let anyone.
The third prince was the first to be defeated, and he didn't seem to dare to look at the prince, Wen Qiao felt that this was the case. After all, the person who can become the crown prince is also a bit imposing, and it is definitely not the son of a concubine who is favored at the head can be surpassed in an instant.
This is relatively good, Wen Qiao looked at the three princes and smiled slightly, he knew that the three princes might not be able to jump for too long.
"Why did the emperor say this? Erchen just pointed out that there was something wrong with the imperial brother's gift, how can it be considered rude? The third prince pretended to be calm and looked at the crown prince, as if he was able to surpass him in momentum just like this.
The crown prince curled his lips and said with a smile: "Today is the birthday of Emperor Ama, why don't you take a break for the younger brother?" We will talk about it later, but the most important thing for now is to put the birthday of Huang Ama first, and we should not spoil this banquet again. ”
After finishing speaking, the prince did it, and the third prince watched him sit down, neither sitting nor standing by himself. He looked at the prince, and there was fire in his heart, but he couldn't let it out.
"Don't sit down yet! How long do you want to be embarrassed! The emperor finally couldn't help but roar, as if he was scolding his unsuccessful son. The third prince looked up at the emperor, but finally sat down, and kept borrowing wine to drown his sorrows.
When the civil and military officials saw it, they all looked at each other. Everyone was at a loss, but the prince looked at the eunuch who gave the gift and nodded slightly, and he knew what to do.
The eunuch shouted in a sharp voice, "The dedication continues." ”
The princes and officials who were still watching the play continued to present their gifts according to the process, among them, there was no lack of rare things, and there was no lack of thoughtful things. It's just that Wen Qiao thought that he had just passed through the round of the three princes, and the emperor probably didn't pay too much attention to this gift.
Wen Qiao raised his head and saw that the emperor's smile had not changed, but he was frozen there, and he knew that the emperor still cared about the matter in his heart, presumably after the banquet was over, he would personally talk to the third prince.
The climax of today's birthday banquet has passed, so there is not much point in continuing to watch.
Wen Qiao talked with the officials beside him, and he didn't care about the next gift. After all, no matter what was given at this time, it could not shake the position of the Tianshan Snow Lotus in the emperor's heart.
By the time the dancing girl came to dance halfway, the three princes had already drunk three pots of wine, and when they saw the shaking waists and the emperor's face in the gap, the three princes felt a little irritable.
"So, what do you think?" When the third prince was upset, he heard the prince's voice, and he looked over and saw the prince talking to others. He placed the cup on the table, and after feeling the heat in his cheeks, he got up and left the feast.
Obviously, his mother is so favored, as the saying goes, a mother is more expensive than a child, why is it not like this when he comes here? He just said two or three words, why did he make Emperor Long Yan angry? I really can't figure it out no matter how I think about it, the prince must have said something to the emperor, otherwise it would never be like this!
The third prince walked to the imperial garden, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. accidentally touched the thorny rose, his hand was cut, and the third prince took advantage of the situation to pick the rose and threw it on the ground for a long time.
There was no palace maid beside him, and the third prince suddenly felt that the hot feeling on his cheeks was even stronger, and he touched his cheeks, and the hatred in his heart had not yet been fully vented.
Because today is the Birthday Festival, and the palace has prepared a birthday banquet, except for the necessary guards, everyone else went to the banquet, and at this moment, there are only a few people in the Imperial Garden.
The third prince still maintained a trace of sanity, he looked at the flowers blooming in front of him, and the more he looked at it, the more uncomfortable he became, so he stepped forward and turned around and lay on it.
The large peanut life was overwhelmed by the body of the third prince, and this outrageous behavior seemed to have aroused the dissatisfaction of others.
On the opposite side of the flowers, a concubine was walking alone, and after seeing the behavior of the third prince, she walked up and asked, "Who are you?" Why do you treat these flowers like this? Do you know that this is a cherished begonia flower, if you bend a small flower, you can't afford to lose! ”
The face of the third prince was obscured by the falling flowers, and even the clothes he wore were difficult to distinguish in the darkness. When the concubine saw that he was silent, she came over. But she didn't recognize the third prince, so she just thought it was some rude eunuch and kicked him hard.
"What? It's just a flower, so what if it's broken? The third prince said impatiently, and rolled around among the flowers again, seemingly not caring at all about what the concubine said.
The concubine was so angry that she wanted to pull him up, so she kicked him a few more times and shouted, "Get up for me!" Such a rude eunuch, I want to see which division you are! ”
The third prince frowned and sat up.
"Where did the little palace maid come from, when she saw that I didn't kneel down quickly, but she said that I was wrong? It's really possible. ”
Saying that, the third prince felt a little dizzy, and the more the concubine in front of him looked at it, the more pleasing it became, "Yo, she looks pretty good, come, let's play with the master!" ”
The third prince grabbed the concubine's hand, and she fell unsteadily on top of the flowers with the three princes, and the already overwhelmed flowers were even more overwhelmed at this time.
The concubine shouted in surprise and struggled: "What have you done, I am the emperor's concubine, how can I allow you to be defiled?" Get up, or I'm going to call someone! ”
"Heh, the little palace maid is quite energetic, embarrassed to say that she is the emperor's person? But haven't you really seen the concubine? If you can make the master take a fancy to you, you should be content! After the third prince finished speaking, he took off his shirt despite the concubine's struggle.
The moonlight was hazy, and there were crickets chirping in the grass, but the Imperial Garden was not as clean as before, but no one had come to notice that something was wrong here.
"Master." Ling Yi took advantage of the dancing girl to walk in through the side door, walked to Wen Qiao's side, and whispered something to him.
Wen Qiao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Can you see clearly?" ”
"Back to the master, the subordinates see it really and there is no lie. The third prince later took the person to another room. As soon as Ling finished speaking, Wen Qiao thought for a moment, and then waved his hand to let him retreat.
Ling Yiwei bent down and retreated from the palace, as if he had never been here at all.
Wen Qiao looked at Mai Ji, but what he was thinking about was not what was in front of him at all.
But he really didn't expect that the third prince would just speak disrespectfully, and he would dare to do it when he was drunk, it seemed that he was not worried about being abandoned by the emperor at all, and he was really bold enough.
Thinking like this, Wen Qiao felt that the three princes were equivalent to giving up their positions to them, no matter what the three princes did, they would be able to benefit.
He didn't need to understand anything about it.
