Although the palace banquet of the New Year is not as grand as the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens on the first day of the new year, there is no need for hundreds of officials to congratulate them, and there is no need for the emperor to congratulate them, but there must be joy and harmony. At the very least, the emperor and queen should raise a glass to drink with the guests, and the guests should also return the gift and give the emperor and queen their own gifts. Even many years ago, there were many unmarried young ladies who were promised to marry at the palace banquet of the New Year.

But today, all of these are waived, and Bai Heran noticed that many female guests had already brought in gifts, but in the faintly oppressive atmosphere, no one broke the deadlock and was the first to stand up and take the gifts.

The dance music has started, and the dancers' colorful clothes and water sleeves are fluttering, which can be regarded as making the atmosphere a little more lively. There are also people who raise wine to each other and taste the wine, but the wine enters the throat, and then glances at the face of Tianhe Emperor who has never sunny, and the little interest he had just had faded.

Everyone is wondering, why is this year's palace banquet so dull? Why hasn't the queen said a word until now? And why did the emperor mention those who did not come to the banquet as soon as he arrived? Also, why was Concubine Kang released from the cold palace again?

The appearance of Bai Mingzhu gave the old lady hope again, and she began to feel that Bai Heran's previous words were alarmist. What her son slept with the princess, there was nothing at all. Her son is close to the Ye family and the Guo family, and his ambition is not small, but ambition does not mean that he is bold. It was her son, and she never believed that her son would have the guts to get involved with the imperial concubine.

Now that Bai Mingzhu has been released, it is proof that if Bai Xingyan really slept with the imperial concubine, if this matter is really going to cause trouble to the nine clans, then how could the emperor release Bai Mingzhu? Looking at the position where Bai Mingzhu is sitting now, it seems to be on par with the queen, where is this just releasing the cold palace, it is clear that there is still momentum to regain favor.

The old lady's thoughts increased, and she began to suspect that Bai Heran was deliberate, and the purpose of this was to disintegrate the unity and harmony of the Bai family, and to make the Wenguo Mansion fall apart. She provoked the relationship between the Bai family, making everyone an enemy of her old woman and hating her, and then Bai Heran could cover the sky in the Bai family, and the Wenguo Mansion was all the world of Bai Heran.

Thinking of this, the old lady couldn't sit still, and felt more and more that she had analyzed it very accurately. This granddaughter is big-hearted and wild, she came back from Los Angeles to take revenge, and she didn't want everyone in the Bai family to have a good time at all.

The more the old lady thought about it, the more excited she became, and even stood up at last when she thought about it.

This stop drove the table, and several of the dishes that were put on the table were knocked over by her, and people's eyes focused in this direction again, and some people complained: "What is the Bai family going to do?" The New Year's Day will not stop. ”

Some people even criticized in public: "You have to make noise and go home, don't make trouble here." ”

The old lady wanted to talk back, but finally remembered what kind of place this was, subconsciously glanced at the emperor, and sat back sullenly.

Emperor Tianhe didn't care about this trivial matter, he was the emperor, how could he have a deal with a courtier. Even Queen Chen didn't even look at her, and the eyes of the other concubines in the palace were slightly brought here, but after a glance, they all paid attention to Bai Heran, an old lady, who really couldn't arouse their interest.

The old lady doesn't care what others think, but she cares about Bai Mingzhu. When I first looked at the emperor, I also looked at Bai Mingzhu, but Bai Mingzhu also looked at her, but there was disgust and boredom in her eyes, which made her feel cold.

She was completely deluded today, or her heart had always been like this, but nothing had threatened her position or her son's life before, so it was not revealed. Including before, she had also moved to kill Bai Xingyan, and even told Bai Heran in person to let her get rid of Bai Xingyan.

It's just that Bai Tsuru didn't really do it! As long as it does not fall into reality, it will never be able to measure people's hearts.

Perhaps in the eyes of the old lady, in order to be abused in the past, in order to avenge her dead mother, Bai Heran's granddaughter had a little temper with her father at home, or tortured her father by some means, which she could bear. Because this is all his own business behind closed doors, Bai Heran didn't kill this father after all.

Her son is not filial and hateful, she understands this, so she doesn't mind Bai Heran taking revenge.

But then again, revenge has to be measured, and she will never be able to watch Bai Heran really kill people.

In today's incident, the old lady always thought that Bai He was wrong, and that Bai Heran's revenge was upgraded, and a Bai Xingyan was no longer enough to satisfy her appetite, and she had already aimed the spear of revenge at the entire Bai family.

Why is this granddaughter so ruthless?

Thinking of this in her heart, she cast her eyes on Bai Mingzhu again, and even looked at Jun Changning, who was sitting behind Bai Mingzhu.

Jun Changning's cold face is too familiar to her, how many times in her dreams can she dream of Jun Changning scolding her, and she hurts her again and again. When we met again today, she found that Jun Changning's hatred was still so strong, and that look could kill, so she almost came over with a knife and stabbed her.

She thinks that there is nothing wrong with this granddaughter, she is the old lady of the Wenguo Mansion, Jun Changning is the sixth princess in front of the emperor, what else can she do with the princess as a courtier?

After thinking about it, I finally understood that it was not her that Jun Changning hated, but Bai Heran! She was guilty of the misfortune for Bai Heran, and as a result, she was almost angry to death, and Bai Heran turned around and asked her to remember the grace of being saved, why?

The more the old lady thought about it, the more angry she became, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was a wretch, and a person of such an age was actually calculated by a child.

How can she get this game back?

After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere at the palace banquet finally eased a little, the strength of the wine came up, and the courage grew. Finally someone began to toast to the emperor, and finally someone began to give gifts to the emperor.

Bai Heran remembered that he didn't prepare a gift today, whether it was a gift for the emperor or the queen, he didn't prepare it.

She didn't think that she was here to attend the palace banquet today, she came to report that she was mentally prepared to turn her face with the royal family.

But when did this face start to turn over? Also, Jun Lingxi has appeared, but where is Bai Yanyu?

She looked up and looked up, jumped over the Tianhe Emperor and Empress Chen, and was not in the mood to take care of Bai Mingzhu and Jun Changning, so her eyes were directly directed towards Jun Lingxi. She was looking for an opportunity to let Jun Lingxi come over, or both of them would go out, so she asked carefully.

It's a pity that Jun Lingxi never made eye contact with her, and she didn't mean to dodge, but the girl kept lowering her head and twisting her fingers.

Bai Zhenzhen put her chin on her shoulder, and said in a very soft voice: "Sister, look, Jiang Yue is here!" Many people have already noticed, and I heard someone say that the person is very similar to the former Jiang Gonggong. I heard Jun Muchu say before that the emperor would take advantage of this palace banquet to recognize Jiang Yue, but he would not say that he was his own son, only that he was his godson. But this godson is also going to enter the genealogy, so in order to stabilize the court, he must first set up a prince. Some people say that Jiang Yue will also fight for the throne in the future, for fear that the royal blood will not be pure. ”

Hakuzuru nodded, "That's exactly how it should be. ”

"But my brother-in-law has already left Beijing, who is this prince going to appoint?" Bai Zhenzhen was very worried, "The emperor should not be so confused as to give the crown prince to his other son, right?" Sister, tell me quietly, who is the princess that our father slept with? ”

She glanced at Bai Zhenzhen: "Do you want to discuss the matter of establishing the crown prince, or do you want to discuss your father's lace news?" ”

"I want to know." Bai Zhenzhen said honestly, "But the establishment of the crown prince is a state affair after all, I am only curious at most, and no matter how much I can't interfere, but our father's trouble is closely related to us." What do you mean, the emperor specially sent the two highnesses away? Do you want to catch you and me? I thought I was going to die, I had to know what I was dying for, I had to know who he was sleeping with, right? Sister, let me reveal. ”

Bai Heran tilted his head to look at this sister, still with that big face, as if he didn't care much about anything, including talking about this kind of death, he still had no heart.

She raised her hand, rubbed Bai Zhenzhen's head, and told her in an almost inaudible voice, "It's the late Concubine Li Xian." ”

"What?" Bai Zhenzhen slammed into a snort, "Concubine Li Xian? "Concubine Li Xian is not terrible, but what is terrible is that Concubine Li Xian still has a son, but that son has entered the heart of her third sister, and her second sister strongly opposes this good thing.

She didn't understand before, why this was obviously a good family matter, but the second sister was so opposed?

In this regard, she had made a lot of assumptions, but she never expected that their father would have such a leg with Concubine Li Xian.

"Sister." Bai Zhenzhen's voice trembled a little, "Sister, because you know about your father and Concubine Li Xian, you are afraid that sooner or later the East Window incident will happen, so you strongly oppose the third sister and the fifth highness." Or is it because ......" she took a deep breath and said a fact that she was most unwilling to admit, "or is it because the five princes are not the emperor's sons at all, but our father's?" ”

Bai Heran smiled bitterly, "Silly girl, if you just slept with the imperial concubine, then now that the imperial concubine is dead, I take this matter so seriously?" If I just slept with the imperial concubine, I have 10,000 ways for the Bai family to escape the crime of the Zhu clan. ”

"That's true...... Hehe. Bai Zhenzhen also smiled bitterly, "Sleeping with the imperial concubine is still a big crime, and he actually dares to let the imperial concubine get pregnant and give birth to a prince who is not a prince." Our dad is really a thief. If all this is true, what man in the world can endure such a thing? I think our lives are going to be confessed here tonight. ”

"Princess." A little eunuch stepped forward and gave a salute beside Bai Heran, "Princess, what did the emperor call you......?"
