Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Banquet in the East Palace
A side hall in the East Palace is the place where the prince set up a feast.
At this time, the side hall was brightly lit, and the prince Xiao Jingyi sat on the main seat, holding a glass cup in his right hand, and looked at the situation below with a smile.
Below him, there were seven or eight seats on each side, one person in each seat.
After three rounds of wine in the blink of an eye, the atmosphere of the banquet gradually became warm, and the people in the banquet were either laughing and drinking with the people next to them, or standing up to toast the prince in front of him.
These toasters all had a smirk on their faces, and their words were either praise to the emperor or flattery to the crown prince. Sometimes, those flattering words are exaggerated and false. But he couldn't stand everyone's good acting skills, and they clapped excitedly one by one, which really made Xiao Jingyi believe it.
What is the wisdom and martial arts, invincible, talented, the pride of the sky, and the descendant of the dragon...... Those people dared to boast more than one another, and Xiao Jingyi really believed it.
"You civil servants and generals, what you say is really better than singing!" Xiao Jingyi's vanity was greatly satisfied, and he was obviously very proud, but he didn't admit it, but the smile on his face betrayed his true thoughts.
He said this with a smile, and quickly squinted his eyes to the people below. When his gaze fell on the most inconspicuous corner, the expression on his face froze, and after a while, a meaningful smile appeared again.
While everyone was changing their cups and changing their glasses to catch up with the old days, Xiao Jingyu sat alone in the corner seat, as if he was in an isolated environment, and he had no interest in people and things other than himself.
Tonight's Xiao Jingyu was extremely low-key, and even the robe on his body, although it was still his favorite purple, was replaced with dark purple. And he chose the darkest corner, sat in the corner alone, and then hung his head slightly, which really reduced his sense of existence.
However, contrary to his expectations, he originally thought that in such a situation, he could successfully reduce his presence to a minimum, almost zero. But in fact, the sense of presence is indeed reduced, but it is quite limited.
Looking around, the people around him seemed to be busy drinking and toasting, and no one seemed to notice him. But in fact, when everyone is busy with their own business, they can't help but sneak a glance at the corner where he is with the corner of their eyes.
After all, this is the first time that the third prince has attended the prince's banquet!
At this critical juncture, the third prince made such an astonishing move, which really surprised everyone. However, in addition to being surprised, they couldn't help but speculate, trying to figure out the mystery behind this move.
Could it be that the three princes, who have been watching the battle between you for so many years, are finally going to stand in line?
Nine times out of ten, those who can attend this banquet tonight are the prince's people. As the prince's party, they are naturally happy to see this matter in person, and at the same time, they also have some admiration.
I heard that the second prince has made meritorious contributions abroad, and the emperor has already said that he will give him a reward, and it is estimated that in another three or five days, the second prince's carriage and horse will be able to rush back to Beijing. At such a moment, the three princes actually have the determination to stand in line, which is really too bold!
Most of the people at the banquet had such thoughts, so they glanced at Xiao Jingyu in the corner from time to time. Some wanted to set it close, but because of Xiao Jingyu's indifferent look, he raised his glass and stopped.
In the end, the impasse was broken by the host himself.
"Third brother." Xiao Jingyi smiled, picked up the glass wine glass on the table, and raised it to the person sitting in the corner: "Are you willing to deign to go to the banquet tonight, come, you and my brothers have a drink." This palace, do it first for respect! ”
After that, without waiting for Xiao Jingyu to respond, he handed the wine to his lips, raised his head and dried it up.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but applaud: "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's really a good amount of wine!" ”
Xiao Jingyi was full of praise, and the smile on his face was a little proud, he looked at Xiao Jingyu who looked up at him, and pretended to smile elegantly: "Third brother, Cheers to the palace, you are free." ”
If outsiders listen to these words, I am afraid that they will think that he is really big-minded. However, it floated into the ears of those present, and it took on a different meaning.
There are many rules in the wine field, and the wine table culture is also very broad and profound. This sentence sounds very generous, but in fact it is provocative.
Xiao Jingyi and Xiao Jingyu are both big men, he is arrogant and respectful of doing it first, but after doing it, he let Xiao Jingyu feel free, this is not a provocation What is Xiao Jingyu!
As long as it's a man, even if you can't drink it, you will grab the wine glass in front of you and kill it in one gulp!
And Xiao Jingyi is waiting for this picture.
However, the scene that happened below was unexpected by Xiao Jingyi. It made everyone present stunned.
Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, Xiao Jingyu finally stood up with the wine glass, he gently pinched the edge of the wine glass, looked at Xiao Jingyi with a faint expression, and raised the wine glass in his hand slightly, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the words he said were actually "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said so, then I will be free." ”
As he spoke, Xiao Jingyu brought it to his lips, took a sip gently, and soon, put the wine glass away again and put it back on the table.
After finishing the matter, he didn't forget to smile faintly at Xiao Jingyi: "Good wine!" His Royal Highness the Prince's wine is really extraordinary! ”
Seeing this, everyone was even more dumbfounded.
In the matter of talking nonsense with their eyes open, they thought that they were already considered high-ranked. But now that they have seen the third prince Xiao Jingyu, they know that they are scum at all!
They slapped the prince one by one before, although it was an exaggeration, but they also had a certain basis in reality.
But what about these three princes? just touched his lips quickly with the edge of the wine glass, and he actually praised the prince's wine without changing his face!
Excuse me, praise other people's wine, why don't you take a sip of it? Your lips are not wet, and you are still blowing there like the real thing, are you taking everyone for a fool?
In the high position, Xiao Jingyi saw this scene, and his face suddenly became not very good-looking. How could he not see that Xiao Jingyu deliberately made this move in order to draw a line with him!
If he really wants to join the prince's party, then he will naturally drink it all with the prince, and the two look at each other and smile before they have a tacit agreement.
But now, the prince did it first as a respect, and he just dipped his lips on the rim of the cup!!
This act is really disrespectful!
