However, Wu Guogong thought about it for a while, then quickly got up and said, "Back to the emperor, I just came in a hurry, and it will be fine after the minister calms down." ”

He thought that when the words fell, the emperor would be able to say a few more words.

However, Qin Zheng motioned to Li Le next to him to start the palace banquet, and did not take anything more, which couldn't help but make Wu Guogong break out in a cold sweat.

Wrong.

He felt that something was wrong.

Qin Chaochao glanced at Wu Guogong, who was sitting down in a daze, and saw that his face became whiter and paler.

After Li Le sang, it represented the beginning of the palace banquet, and then Qin Zheng said some very polite words.

More than a dozen dancers came in with light steps and began to dance, followed by a few teenagers beating drums.

The silence had vanished, replaced by a lively dance.

The eldest princess over there glanced at this side as if she was nothing, and then she picked up the wine glass in her hand and slowly sipped it, so that many scrutinizing eyes followed.

"Chaochao, respect you." Zhong Yiyan took a small cup and touched her.

Qin Chaochao took a sip and whispered, "The position of about a dozen people on your right hand is Gu Wen." ”

Half a month before the palace banquet was held, a post was sent to the hands of the prefectures, although there was no name on it, but it stipulated that according to the size of the official position of each family, a few people should be brought over.

For example, the Gu family of the Marquis of Yongyi is sitting in the front.

The person who came was Mrs. Yongyi Hou, who brought Gu Wen and two other granddaughters.

But obviously Gu Wen was excluded, and the other two little girls were huddled there with their heads down, talking and laughing, not looking at her at all.

"Tell her to come and sit down." Qin Chaochao thought for a moment.

She got up and went straight over, came to Gu Wen's side, patted her on the shoulder, and smiled milkily, "Sister Gu." ”

In fact, Gu Wen saw her just now, although she had changed her appearance, it still felt familiar.

There is always a slight sense of freedom and ease in her, and she looks eccentric.

"I've seen the five princesses." Gu Wen got up and saluted, naturally attracting the attention of the others.

Qin Chaochao nodded, and bowed to the old lady of Yongyi Hou next to her, not that she had to salute, but she felt that this old lady was worthy of respect, whether it was her temper or others.

The little sisters who were gathered together and muttered quickly stood up.

"The courtiers have seen the five princesses." They spoke out together.

The rhythm in the hall was still ringing, and the Qin Dynasty simply couldn't hear the words of the two of them.

"Old Madam Hou, I want Sister Gu to go and sit over there." Qin Chaochao said politely to the old lady of Yongyi, she knew that she would definitely know when her identity was revealed.

Really.

Old Madam Yongyi Hou nodded and said with a kind smile, "That's annoying the fifth princess." ”

When she took Gu Wen back, Zhong Yiyan was there squeezing her eyebrows.

The three of them got together, and this scene fell in the eyes of Qin Zheng and Empress Xiao above, and the two of them turned their heads.

"This girl from the Yongyi Marquis Mansion is very good, but if she is a companion, she is too old." Qin Zheng said softly, "I don't care if I'm one or two years old, but it's a bit too much to be six or seven years old." ”

Empress Xiao snorted.

In fact, there is no rush now, after all, the construction of the Royal Academy has just begun, and even if it is fast, it will be three months later.

"Start?" Empress Xiao suddenly asked without a clue.

Qin Zheng looked at Wu Guogong, who seemed to be relaxed over there, he was talking to the person next to him at this time, but he was obviously not as nervous as he was just now.

So Qin Zheng glanced at Li Le.

Li Le quickly understood what he meant, and then quietly retreated.

It didn't take long for him to come over with a delicate flask, still holding something in his hand.

"Duke Wu Guo, the emperor has given you wine." Li Le deliberately raised his voice, and by the way, he showed the paper in his hand to block the eyes of others, so that Wu Guogong could only see it.

Wu Guogong subconsciously glanced up, this glance doesn't matter.

The mood that had already relaxed suddenly came up, and the piece of paper in Li Le's hand clearly wrote how many secret guards the Wuguo Mansion had raised, and what his dead soldiers had done for him over the years...... At the end, it is written how many of them died when they assassinated the five princesses.

It's coming.

When Li Le was talking just now, the dancers in the hall were just finished and led the people to retreat.

At this time, everyone's eyes fell on Wu Guogong, and most of them were envious, this Wu Guogong had been taken care of by the emperor for so many years.

Even for a palace banquet, I have to go and bring him wine.

Qin Chao glanced at the expressions on everyone's faces, picked up the cup in his hand, and took small sips.

"Duke Wu Guo, the emperor has given you wine." Li Le saw that he was unresponsive, so he smiled and said again.

It was this sentence that finally focused Wu Guogong's attention on the pot of wine.

Putting wine and sin together, it's hard not to suspect that it's poisoned wine.

If he drinks Shane, will he be without himself in a while?

No way.

Can't drink it.

Wu Guogong's head shook, and he strode out, thinking of using the method on the road to make a desperate bet.

"Since the emperor ascended the throne, the love for the ministers has been remembered by the ministers." Wu Guogong kowtowed heavily in the hall.

The people did not know why, but looked at him.

Today, Wu Guogong came alone, which is indeed a little strange.

"The minister has been trembling for many years, and his body is ......not good," Wu Guogong trembled and took out a token from his arms, gritted his teeth and raised his head, "The minister thinks about it, the 30,000 troops stationed on the outskirts of Beijing, the minister is really weak, it is better to hand it over to the emperor." ”

You don't need to say too much, just click on it.

He knew it was too late, and if it had been earlier, he would have done something.

But the emperor openly investigated the attack on the fifth princess, but in private, he turned over the Wuguo Mansion, and frequently showed favor to him, making him give up his vigilance.

That's when it happened.

Zhou Guiren's eyes rolled, and he suddenly fainted.

"Noble! Elegant! The palace maid who was guarding was dumbfounded and quickly screamed loudly.

Clear-eyed people can already see that maybe the recent rumors about the attack on the five princesses were done by the Wuguo Mansion, and the emperor is going to take advantage of this palace banquet to start liquidation.

This back and forth also shows one thing.

The emperor is really interested in the five princesses, and the Wuguo Mansion has been favored for so many years, which can be regarded as stepping on the emperor's tail.

"Doctor, please." Qin Zheng spoke out unhurriedly.

Wu Guogong, who was holding the token, didn't dare to look up at his daughter, and only hoped that the emperor would agree earlier.

This is already the best way he can think of to keep the Wuguo Mansion at the moment!
