Chapter Thirty-Six: I Have Never Seen the World
Returning to his seat, Jiang Yin began to turn the handkerchief in his hand again.
A yellow figure suddenly flashed in front of Jiang Yin's eyes, and before he could react, he saw everyone at the table get up and salute the bright yellow voice: "See His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
The voice was up and down, and Jiang Yin followed.
The dark figure beside the prince, Jiang Yin is no stranger, and he saw it once a few days ago!
Xiao Huaiyan saw a sharp gaze staring at him, looked sideways, and happened to collide with Jiang Yin, Jiang Yin hurriedly lowered his head, like a child who had been in trouble.
chuckled, and said in a deep voice to Yue Cheng beside him: "Keep an eye on Jiang Yin." ”
Retracting his gaze, Xiao Huaiyan followed the prince forward, and when King Duan, who was sitting on the right seat, saw the prince, his face sank, as if he was very unwelcome.
Because the person in front of him was the crown prince, King Duan got up from the throne, went up to salute, and asked with a smile: "Why is the imperial brother here?" ”
"Hongu is not welcome?" The prince glanced at King Duan coldly, a little yin and yang: "The second brother invited Huaiyan, but he only forgot about me, and the palace thought that this invitation was not sent to the East Palace!" ”
Duan Wang's face stiffened, he glanced at Xiao Huaiyan, and his fists under his wide sleeves were clenched tightly.
The banquet for Xiao Huaiyan was to use this incident to make the prince and Xiao Huaiyan stiff, and to make the prince suspect that Xiao Huaiyan was going to defect. As a result, he lifted a stone to shoot himself in the foot, and directly invited the prince over.
The rest of the officials glanced at each other, and everyone dared to speak for King Duan.
Who in the court doesn't know that the crown prince and King Duan are incompatible.
This reception banquet was invited by the people of Duanwang's party, although they were loyal to Duanwang, they did not dare to offend the prince. Speaking for King Duan, isn't this sending yourself to a dead end?
The scene fell silent for a while, and at this moment, Xiao Huaiyan suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence.
"I heard that General Jiang Xiao picked up a night pearl from Dingjun and presented it to King Duan, I wonder if King Duan can take it out for everyone to see?"
The officials instantly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Xiao Huaiyan with grateful.
Only Xiao Huaiyan, the Marquis of Wu An, dared to speak at this time.
The pearl of the night? Jiang Yin frowned, what is there to look at in the night pearl, isn't it just a larger fluorescent ball, when it is not lit, it looks like a glass ball.
When the night pearl was served, the ladies present were shocked, Jiang Yin raised his eyes and glanced at it, the crystal clear beads were embedded in the golden base, silver like frost, lighting up the whole night.
I don't know which lady saw it, looked at the night pearl in surprise, and murmured: "It's really a sea with tears!" ”
I don't know! Jiang Yin retracted her gaze, refilled herself with a glass of wine, and gave her a white lampshade for her flashlight, she could also make a night pearl, and it was brighter and bigger than this.
After drinking a few glasses of wine in a row, Jiang Yin felt that his body was a little hot, and said to Mrs. Jiang with drunkenness: "Mother, I'll go to breathe first, and I'll be back in a while." ”
Qinghe wanted to follow, but Qinghe didn't let him.
There were many people who left the table because they were slightly drunk, and no one noticed Jiang Yin.
Alone in the backyard gazebo, leaning aside and blowing a cool breeze, trying to sober himself up.
A lame maid suddenly walked over, lowered her head and said to her, "There is a guest room in the house, can this young lady go to rest?" ”
The drunkenness did not dissipate, Jiang Yin nodded, and under the leadership of the lame maid, he went to a guest room.
After the maid came out, she said to the fat-headed and big-eared man on the side: "The incense has been lit in the house, and the adults are resting." ”
After speaking, the man took out a heavy money pocket from his arms and threw it to the maid: "If you do a good job, there will be a reward." ”
After the lame maid left, the man rubbed his hands in anticipation and pushed the door open.
It was a woman with her eyes closed and her cheeks blushing lying on the floor.
The man licked the corners of his mouth with lustful eyes, and began to untie his robe impatiently.
"Beauty, the lord is here." The man, dressed in his undershirt, hurriedly walked towards the woman who collapsed on top.
