The fifth prince was a little disappointed, [It doesn't matter, some things are in a hurry, he doesn't believe that he can't break the sixth brother's brain for a long time, he naturally won't think too much about it now that he is proud, and when he is frustrated outside, he will know the benefits of power! ] 】

Ye Hanyu: ...... Still in a hurry? Still frustrated? Still know the benefits of power? Fifth brother, it really made him speechless!

He doesn't understand, he is a prince who has no support from his mother and no foundation in the court, how does the fifth brother think he can compete with others?

"Well, you're right, by the way, do you want to remind your father-in-law, it's better not to get involved in this kind of thing."

Ye Hanyu shook his head, "No, according to my father-in-law's temperament, he won't get involved in this kind of boring thing." ”

The princess is so smart, how could her father be a stupid person? And in the year he served in Beijing, when did his father-in-law do something stupid?

Not to mention his father-in-law, even his eldest brother is not simple, and the Gu family is a little simpler-minded with his mother-in-law, but she is definitely a good mother.

……

Without waiting for the prince to be moved to the court, the palace first reported that the prince tortured and killed those palace maids, and the prince was called to Chaoyang Palace in the afternoon of the same day, and stayed in it for nearly an hour, and the emperor directly rewarded him with fifty boards.

The queen got the news and rushed to Chaoyang Hall to intercede, but the emperor didn't give her any face, and punished her for watching the prince being punished with a cane, and finally the queen fainted in distress and was carried back to Kunning Palace.

After beating fifty boards, the emperor stood in front of the prince who was so painful that he only had one breath left and asked him: "Do you know why your father beat you?" ”

The prince didn't say anything, but he was so hurt that he didn't even have the strength to speak.

"You are my sister-in-law, I have high hopes for you, and I love you so deeply, you are so disappointing to me.

Also, if you want to secure the position of the crown prince, you will have to take the fifty rods today, so that no one will take this matter out against you again.

Because there is no double punishment for one crime.

Do you understand? ”

The crown prince raised his head with difficulty, and such a slight movement hurt so much that his face was bloodless: "Son, son, thank you." ”

The emperor had a cold face, "Li Changhai, send the prince back to the East Palace, let the courtyard just treat the prince, don't let him fall into a hidden illness." ”

The injury on the prince's arm was not healed, and with these fifty rods, half of his life was directly lost.

Of course, the executioner was only merciful, otherwise, the prince would not even be able to hold on to the fifty rods.

Several eunuchs carefully lifted the prince and sent him to the East Palace, the prince slowly closed his eyes, but his heart was full of hatred.

……

Knowing that the prince was stabbed in front of the emperor but was only scolded by the cane fifty, several people behind the scenes were a little regretful, but unfortunately, why didn't they beat the prince to death?

But it doesn't matter, they (they) still have a follow-up move, so they don't know what happened next, can the prince still escape the catastrophe?

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the palace is full of lanterns, the clan relatives and ministers will all receive the palace lantern fruit box rewarded by the palace, and there will be a banquet in the palace at night, and the harem concubines and princes all gather together to participate in the family banquet to enjoy the food, and there is a fireworks show after dinner.

After watching the fireworks in the sky, the emperor went back to Chaoyang Palace, and Ye Hanyu immediately pulled Gu Wanning back to the prince's office, "Hurry up and change your clothes, and the master will take you to see the lanterns outside the palace." ”

Every year during the Lantern Festival, there is no curfew in the capital, and the outside of the palace is even more lively than in the palace, and the lantern festival will last for three days.

Gu Wanning must have been moved, but when she thought that the murderer who assassinated them last time hadn't been caught yet, there were too many people at the Lantern Festival, and it would be bad if there was an accident.

"Master, why don't you forget it, it's not safe in crowded places, and your injuries aren't healed yet, so you can't go to the Lantern Festival."

Ye Hanyu smiled: "Are you really a brainless master?" Let's go out of the palace in disguise tonight and put on a mask outside.

Ye himself does not take a step, let the minions carry it, the master has set the best location on Siping Street, let's enjoy the food while watching the lanterns, watching the fireworks, to ensure that you can have a good time. ”

Gu Wanning put her mind at ease, picked up the clothes prepared by Ye Hanyu and saw that they were a set of men's clothes, and there was a fox mask inside.

……

Two quarters of an hour later, the couple quietly went out of the palace with a few slaves and maids, and there were already two very ordinary carriages waiting there at the palace gate, and the carriages ran towards the most lively Siping Street.

There are bridges and rivers on Siping Street, and there are all kinds of juggling on both sides of the bridge for people to enjoy.

The carriage stopped at least two miles away from Siping Street, because there were too many people on the street, and the carriage couldn't walk at all, so Ye Hanyu got out of the car, carried by Xiao Weizi, and Hongmei Chunlan helped Gu Wanning to go to the restaurant that had been set in advance.

This group of people all wore masks, all dressed as men, even Gu Wanning's four handmaidens.

Gu Wanning was wearing a thick cloak, a hat on her head, a black scarf around her neck, and a black fox mask, the whole person was tightly covered, if anyone could recognize her, she really had a pair of see-through eyes.

As soon as she got out of the carriage, Gu Wanning was attracted by the various lanterns hanging on the side of the street, such as elephant lanterns, toad lanterns, rabbit lanterns, crab lanterns, character lanterns, etc., etc., which dazzled people.

The bustling scene of colorful fire trees and silver flowers everywhere made Gu Wanning feel like she had entered another world.

By the time she entered the restaurant that Ye Hanyu had set in advance, she had already bought a lantern for all the group, and even Ye Hanyu, who had a leg injury and was unable to move, also had a spirit snake lamp, but someone who was ashamed of it stuffed the lamp into Gu Wanning's hand, and asked her to help take it, but he didn't have a hand.

When he arrived at the door of the restaurant, Ye Hanyu motioned to Xiao Weizi to put him down, in fact, the redness and swelling on his ankles had already disappeared, but Gu Wanning instructed him not to use force if he could, and to raise it for a few more days, so as not to form a habitual dislocation in the future, he ordered it with one foot and put his arm on Xiao Weizi's shoulder, "Ye is waiting for you here, you take the slaves and maids to go shopping below, He Chu will bring someone to protect you closely, you should be careful, as long as you don't get separated." ”

Gu Wanning didn't refuse, she finally came out once, of course she had to go shopping.

"Then go in, it's cold outside, let's go around and come back."

Ye Hanyu waved his hand at her, motioning for her to go first, but he didn't move.

Gu Wanning felt the burning gaze behind her, she couldn't help but turn around, the warm yellow light hit the white fox mask, his hair was clearly rooted, and the only pair of dark eyes that were exposed were looking at her softly.

She hurriedly turned her head, stumbled in her steps, Hongmei helped her in time, and one master and four servants quickly disappeared into the crowd. ’
