Chapter 27: Going to the Feast

"Isn't today Prime Minister Xiao's birthday? This king also went to join in the fun. ”

Chu Xiuyi looked at Xiao Ruoxi and said with a smile.

"My dad handed you a post too?"

Xiao Ruoxi looked at Chu Xiuyi and asked with a puzzled expression.

Hearing this, Chu Xiuyi was stunned, his expression was slightly embarrassed, and said:

"This king wants to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, do you still need an invitation? Wherever the king wants, he goes. ”

Chu Xiuyi looked like he should have been.

Xiao Ruoxi guessed that it was impossible for Prime Minister Xiao Cheng to invite all these princes and grandsons on his birthday, because he didn't have such a big face.

Second, Prime Minister Xiao himself is in a high position in the imperial court, if he really has such a move, then in the eyes of outsiders, there is a suspicion of winning over various princes, what does this make the current emperor think?

Therefore, even if he borrowed ten more dares from Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, he would not dare to do so.

"Well, yes, yes, who are you?!His Royal Highness King Yi, where are you going, who dares to stop you!"

Xiao Ruoxi said the truth very against his will, and in his eyes, there was a hint of ridicule.

"Of course."

Chu Xiuyi directly ignored the ridicule in Xiao Ruoxi's eyes, and said with an extremely proud expression.

"Coachman, why is it so slow?"

However, just when Xiao Ruoxi was joking with Chu Xiuyi.

Chu Xiuhan, who was closing his eyes and recuperating on the side, suddenly spoke coldly.

Hearing this, Xiao Ruoxi could only hear the driver outside shouting "drive".

The carriage galloped away, Xiao Ruoxi hung his head out of the window, turned his head to look at Chu Xiuyi, who was getting farther and farther away from him, and shouted:

"His Royal Highness King Yi, let's get together again at the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

The words fell, and before Chu Xiuyi could answer, he felt a force in the back of her neck pulling her back, directly pulling her back into the carriage.

Sitting down in the carriage, Xiao Ruoxi stared at the man in front of him who was motionless at the moment and closed his eyes and recuperated, and said angrily:

"What are you doing?"

Don't think that if she pretends that nothing has happened, she won't know it's him, such a low-level deception, even a three-year-old child can't fool it.

"The carriage is too fast, I'm afraid it's dangerous for your head to stick out."

Chu Xiuhan still closed his eyes, looking calm and composed, and said that he pulled Xiao Ruoxi back for Xiao Ruoxi's good.

"Cut ~ strong words."

Xiao Ruoxi was too lazy to worry about Chu Xiuhan, no matter how fast this carriage was, could it be faster than a car?

Besides, it wasn't him who told the coachman to be faster.

Fortunately, the Prime Minister's Mansion is not too far away, especially after the carriage speeds up, but it will be there in half an hour.

Xiao Ruoxi got out of the car one step ahead of Chu Xiuhan, and along the way, Chu Xiuhan always kept a straight face, and didn't say a word, she really couldn't stand staying in a small space with him anymore.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Chu Xiuyi's carriage following closely behind him, and he also arrived.

"Ruoxi."

As soon as Chu Xiuyi jumped out of the carriage, he smiled and waved his hand to greet Xiao Ruoxi.

"Hey!"

Xiao Ruoxi naturally responded politely.

"The fifth brother is also here."

At this time, Chu Xiuhan had already gotten off the carriage, looked at Chu Xiuyi, and said lightly.

This seems to be a very casual sentence, but Xiao Ruoxi listens to it, why does it always feel weird?

Maybe it's because Chu Xiuhan has always liked to keep a straight face! So these words sound extraordinarily vivid, Xiao Ruoxi thought so.

"I've seen the third brother."

In front of Chu Xiuhan, Chu Xiuyi put away his hanging appearance and saluted Chu Xiuhan very respectfully.

"Fifth brother doesn't have to be polite! Didn't Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's birthday also hand over a post to the fifth brother? ”

Chu Xiuyi thought that the brothers would say hello at most when they met, and the greetings passed, but he didn't expect Chu Xiuhan to suddenly ask, and he was inevitably a little embarrassed for a while:

"Uh...... Not really, I'm just here to join in the fun. ”

After speaking, there was an embarrassed smile on his face that could not be concealed.

"His Royal Highness the King of Han, the lower officials greet the late arrival, and hope to forgive the sins!"

Just when the atmosphere was awkward, another voice sounded, breaking the embarrassment.

Everyone looked back at the door, and saw that Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, who was dressed in civilian clothes, was walking from the door at this moment, and made a big salute as soon as he arrived in front of Chu Xiuhan.

He never thought that this Chu Xiuran and Chu Xiuhan would arrive together one after the other, he had just finished welcoming Chu Xiuran and settled in the front hall, and before he had time to take a breath, this Chu Xiuhan had arrived again.

Does this birthday feast start in the evening? Why did this Chu Xiuran and Chu Xiuhan arrive so early, didn't the two brothers discuss it in advance, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng thought in his heart.

"The prime minister doesn't have to be polite."

Chu Xiuhan turned around and said to Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, still looking extremely calm.

"Dad, get up!"

It was Xiao Ruoxi, who was much more enthusiastic than Chu Xiuhan's iceberg face, and stepped forward to help Prime Minister Xiao Cheng.

"Ruoxi."

Prime Minister Xiao looked at Xiao Ruoxi very moved, since Xiao Ruoxi married to this Hanwang Mansion, he had never seen his daughter except on the day he returned to the door, and now, he could only take advantage of his birthday to invite his daughter back.

When the emperor's decree fell, he married his daughter to the Han Palace, and he couldn't refute it.

Now it is rumored everywhere that King Han does not like the princess, and spoils the concubine in the mansion alone, and because of the miscarriage of the concubine some time ago, he almost caused his daughter to lose her life.

Fortunately, he was relieved to see that his daughter was safe and sound today.

The worry in Xiao Chengxiang's eyes, how could Xiao Ruoxi not see it, a person's eyes can't deceive people, Xiao Chengxiang really loves her daughter, she can see it.

Now, since she has occupied the body of the second miss of the Xiao family and occupied everything that originally belonged to the second miss of the Xiao family, then she will also take her due responsibility, and she will do her filial piety for the second miss of the Xiao family.

"Dad, I'm back."

Xiao Ruoxi looked at Prime Minister Xiao Cheng and said with happiness in his eyes.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."

Prime Minister Xiao looked at his daughter with a look of relief, but he didn't forget the business at the moment, turned his head to look at Chu Xiuhan, made a gesture of invitation, and said:

"His Royal Highness the King of Han, please."

After saying that, a small servant immediately came to lead the way.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng also followed.

"Ahem!"

As soon as Prime Minister Xiao turned around, he heard a cough behind him, who was he trying to scold? Such an important scene, in front of His Royal Highness King Han, how could he be so rude, but as soon as he turned around, after seeing clearly who the coughing person was, Prime Minister Xiao was suddenly stunned.
