Chapter Ninety-Six: Whose Banquet

After speaking, he strode away, and then there was a scene of riding out of the city.

Yan Zi has been stupidly staying in place and not knowing how to end, she has lowered her posture to give everyone a step down, trying to make a successful reversal in the last confession, but she doesn't want to make it look like this, she will only make herself more embarrassed by the empress. I don't believe it, she doesn't believe that Sheng Linsheng is really so faceless, when has he refused her words since he was a child, even if he is a big rebel thing like establishing himself as a king, he has no hesitation, and eating a meal is not a poison, how can he refuse.

Yan Zi was very frustrated and never found a way to communicate, maybe the two of them were too strong.

That's it, the coming days are long, and I believe that time can smooth everything out. Yan Zi sighed helplessly, sat aside in a daze, but at this time, the palace maid came to report that Lord Bai wanted to come to the dinner, and it was really uninvited who should have come. This Bai Ji is addicted to rice, Yan Zi has a black line on his face, and he ordered someone to send it away with a white look.

But as soon as the palace maid turned around and went back to take Bai Jikao, this person was already standing in the dormitory uninvited, and there was a crystal curtain through it, which should be faintly blocked by the crystal curtain, and some figures could still be seen.

Yan Zi glanced at him and said angrily, "Lord Bai, I haven't ordered anyone to announce you, how can you be so presumptuous that you even dare to break into my bedroom, it's really a big head!" ”

Bai Jikao smiled indifferently, and didn't take it seriously, "I heard that Your Majesty wanted to invite General Sheng to a banquet, but unfortunately the general was unmoved. The minister felt that if no one went to the banquet, His Majesty would lose face, so the minister came uninvited. Anyway, His Majesty has rice to eat, and he doesn't care about having an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks. Oh no, this pair of chopsticks has been prepared a long time ago, but it has changed guests. Your Majesty shouldn't mind if you have another meal, right? ”

Bai Jikao smiled cheekily and bared his teeth, and Yan Zi was still white-eyed. That's it, anyway, I have already prepared the dishes and chopsticks, just give him a pair.

Originally, a lot of delicacies were prepared for Sheng Linsheng, and he specially ordered the chefs of the Yan Mansion to make them, but after the fall of the Yan family, the subordinates were scattered, and Yan Zi barely found a few cooks for a long time, and then stayed in the palace and kept cooking palace food. It's a pity that these Sheng Lin Saints can't be eaten anymore.

Yan Zi picked up a piece of vegetable casually, dangled it in front of him and looked at it for a while, but it was not so delicious when it fell into his mouth, as if it was coarse tea and light rice in the countryside, Bai Ji clearly saw that she didn't seem to have much appetite.

That's right, this seat was originally Shenglinsheng, but now that I let myself sit it, it's no wonder that I don't have much appetite for people I don't want to see. Bai Jikao smiled bitterly a few times, trying his best to hide the tumbling in his heart, pretending to be casual and amplifying his voice to eat vegetables and drink soup, but his heart was never good.

"Your Majesty, who cooks such a sweet meal, why does Your Majesty eat it tastelessly? Could it be that the palace brocade clothes and jade food are used to it, and suddenly it is greasy, and the Weichen feels that His Majesty can try coarse tea and light rice to adjust his appetite and change his mood. ”

Yan Zi symbolically raised the bowl and chopsticks and chewed a few bites, without saying much, and continued to be in a daze.

Bai Jikao's heart became even more sour, did he have nothing to say in the face of himself, but he was also against him, and it was good for her to quarrel with herself at this time, but there was nothing to do, which is called sad.

That's it, don't talk about this, Bai Jikao suddenly thought of something else, "Your Majesty, there is still something I don't know whether to say or not?" ”

Yan Zi put down the dishes and chopsticks, and finally looked at him, but this look was full of disdain, "Whether you should say it or not, it can't stop the urge you want to say it, since it's like this, say it early." So that my ears will be cleaner in the future. ”

In this case, Bai Jikao didn't have to hide anything, and it was straightforward, "The minister feels that it is time for Your Majesty to deal with your relatives and friends on both sides." After all, the relatives on the paternal side and the maternal side are all royal relatives. Your Majesty is now the empress of a country, shouldn't you reward the relatives of the two parties in a big way, sometimes the country's major affairs are not suitable for outsiders to interfere and must be assisted by trustworthy people. In this way, His Majesty can also be more relaxed. ”

Smack, easy? Assisted? Yan Zi suddenly put down the dishes and chopsticks, and didn't say anything more, but looked at Bai Jikao solemnly and seriously. Obviously, these words had offended her sensitive heart, but knowing that Bai Jikao was unintentional, she put up with it for the time being. If it were an ordinary person, these words would have been put to death for the crime of great treason.

"Lord Bai, do you know the truth that illness comes from the mouth and disaster comes from the mouth? There are some things that you can't just worry about as a minister. ”

As soon as these words came out, Bai Jikao was also stunned, he didn't expect Yan Zi to be so sensitive that he couldn't say a word. Looks like we have to change our approach to admonishment.

"Your Majesty can't get it alone, isn't he afraid of being criticized by the world? What's more, His Majesty has no blood relatives left and right, and many things cannot be carried out. For example, when foreign envoys receive them, Your Majesty has no princess or uncle or uncle, so doesn't he have to do everything himself? ”

Bai Jikao asked rhetorically.

"So, Lord Bai means that you want me to be crowned the emperor? But do you know that there are many relatives of the emperor, and once the title is granted, it will cost the people and money, and it will cost a lot to build a new mansion. ”

Bai Ji laughed when he heard this: "Your Majesty is worried that the large number of royal relatives will cause all kinds of scrambles, and there is also a suspicion of plotting to usurp the throne?" It's that His Majesty has thought that no one is good or bad, and not everyone is interested in the throne. Besides, if you really have such a heart, even if you don't have the blood of the imperial family, even ordinary people will do it, just like Your Majesty did back then. It is simply impossible to prevent it, so Your Majesty does not have to worry about someone plotting to usurp the throne, as long as it is managed properly and makes good use of talents, you can sit on the throne for a long time. ”

"You!" Yan Zi was angry, and at the same time a little weak-hearted, his words undoubtedly touched his bottom line with a burst of blood. That's right, the seemingly powerful and omnipotent empress is actually a timid person, because timidity inevitably thinks a lot, so not only do I feel all kinds of caution and all kinds of worries, I would rather deal with it all by myself than fake the hands of others, and I always feel that everyone is uneasy and kind.

And that's not the case, people are good and bad, she just thinks everyone bad, and not only that, but she also traps herself in the so-called protection very seriously, in order to avoid harm, no one can believe it.

But this is really tiring, and as an empress, she must learn to distinguish between good and bad, and wander between various characters.

"Your Majesty, as the king of a country, cannot rest on your laurels, because your actions are seriously related to the lifeblood of the country. Your Majesty should try to open your heart to accept everyone, and then discern the truth from the false. If it is only because of a few exceptions, the blockade of kindness will not be laughed at? What do foreign kings think? ”

"Bai Jikao, have you said enough!" Yan Zi really couldn't bear it, so he simply dropped the dishes and chopsticks and stopped eating.

Bai Jikao was still eating by himself, how could the imperial meal that he had finally come to waste was so wasted. And this is what he wants, and it is very clear that although Yan Zi is very disgusted with such words, he will definitely be able to listen to it, and he still has some mind to be the material of the king. Otherwise, the addition of his blunt words three times and twice before would not have results so quickly, in fact, those two times were just experiments, to explore Yan Zi's tolerance and mind, and to make sure that he was a person who did not hold grudges and was broad-minded, he dared to say the ultimate goal, which was to let Yan Zi's parents and relatives of the emperor and the country be corrected.

Bai Jikao did not hesitate to strike while the iron was hot, and took advantage of the momentum of releasing the exiled genius to continue to support a group of imperial relatives.

"Your Majesty, no matter how you correct these imperial relatives, it is necessary. After all, it is a relative of His Majesty, and it would be rude to treat him as a commoner all the time. If this is passed on, it will definitely give people a handle, and it is easy for villains to take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the loophole to divide the relationship between His Majesty and them. Therefore, His Majesty has to think twice about public and private. ”

"Enough! Bai Jikao, do you really think that I won't dare to kill you? Yan Zi roared angrily, and picked up a piece of porcelain fragment on the table with lightning speed.

It was just a blink of an eye, but he felt a murderous aura coming from his face before he had time to take precautions, the porcelain shards had already smeared his neck, and what appeared in front of him was the hideous face of an enlarged version of the woman.

The speed is really unguardable, Bai Ji didn't have time to make psychological preparations, so he couldn't help but be a little frightened, but when he looked down and saw that the hand holding the fragments was already bloody, he suddenly didn't feel terrible, but a little pitiful, poor Yan Zi, this seemingly strong and resourceful woman, was actually not strong at all but very cowardly, because she was afraid of being hurt, she simply refused everything that might cause harm to herself. From this point of view, this woman is indeed pitiful, pitiful and distressing, and I don't know what unknown things I have experienced before I lose confidence in people.

The bright red blood flowed down and fell into Bai Jikao's palm little by little, stinging his eyes, and he couldn't help frowning, looking at her so seriously and solemnly for the first time, like a big brother, affectionate and playful.

Yes, that's it, this kind of eyes are radiant, like the sun shining in the dark night to tear apart all the bad and then leave the warm and bright light alone to occupy people's eyes and hearts.

Yan Zi's mood at the moment is like this, she herself is surprised, why the hippie smiling and unserious Bai Ji has such a serious side, and it is so charming when it is serious, it makes people fascinated, and she feels even more cordial, and all her guards are falling apart in this one. The grip on the porcelain piece began to loosen a little.

Just now, Bai Jikao saw the opportunity and immediately snatched the porcelain piece in Yan Zi's hand with lightning speed, and then threw it in one place. quickly tore off the corner of his clothes to bandage Yan Zi, and the whole process was extremely fast, and Yan Zi was so stunned that he forgot to resist, so he let Bai Jikao bandage his wounds.
