King Yi's heart tightened, he was stunned for a moment, but he still dared to step forward, and saw a table of wine around the hall, and the prince was sitting at the head of the table, holding a wine glass, and was accepting the congratulations of the officials.

"Brother Xian, you've finally arrived!" After the prince drank a full wine to everyone, he glanced at King Yi who was wandering outside the hall, hurriedly walked down the stairs a few steps, grabbed his arm, and invited him to take a seat.

King Yi did not have the usual pride, he had a completely indifferent face, hastily answered the prince, and sat down silently. The provincial ministers all glanced at him secretly.

The prince didn't care, let go of King Yi, turned around and walked up to the main seat, took the bottle of wine, and poured a full one, "The virtuous brother has come all the way to Beijing, if you don't try your best to entertain us, how can you show our sincerity?" Brother Xian was about to leave, so he hurriedly set up a large table of wine and meat to show his send-off. ”

He raised the wine cup and turned to King Yi, "Come, toast you with a farewell wine for my brother!" ”

King Yi's hand was placed on the edge of the lamp, his fingers stretched and contracted, and he was undecided.

"This official respectfully represents the officials of the whole province," Su Zongshan on the opposite side slowly rose, and then said, "I also salute the prince!" ”

"I'll wait for a cup to the prince!" Everyone shouted together, and they all looked at King Yi, only Minghuiguang's eyes were the most eager, as if he was worried about something.

King Yi had to take a stand. He sighed lightly, forcibly held back his anger, raised his hand to take the wine cup, got up and replied: "King Yi has thanked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and thanked you." After that, all the officials agreed and drank it all.

"Good!" The prince's face was full of joy, and he immediately drank it, and then turned around to leave.

"But,"

The prince's footsteps suddenly stopped.

King Yi said these two words heavily, and made a deep thought, "The younger brother needs to stay here for a few days, and he will not return to the fiefdom for the time being." ”

There was silence in the hall. For just this moment, the prince gritted his teeth, his eyes showed a fierce light, but then he calmed down again, only wandered a few steps, and laughed dryly: "Is that because I was wrong?" This morning, several sergeants were packing their bags, asking them, and saying that the army was ready to return. Alas, wonderful! Amazing! ”

King Yi smiled lightly: "Those people are all soldiers, how dare this king let them stay in the capital and provoke right and wrong." So he sent them away. ”

"Oh, I see......," the prince put the cup back on the table, "I also want to reunite our father and son and brother together, so that we can have a reunion." But the law of etiquette does not allow it, Your Majesty, as the Son of Heaven, I am afraid that his mind is unpredictable. ”

"Where's this etiquette?" King Yi's eyes widened angrily, staring at the prince's back.

"This is the law of this dynasty, the number of national rites." Guo Xiang suddenly spoke, and glanced at King Yi, "Whoever the prince is visited, he is not allowed to stay, and he must return to the domain as soon as possible!" ”

King Yi drank another bowl of wine, looked up to the sky and laughed: "This banquet is really set up for me!" You've all put your mind here, right? ”

"Brother Xian, this is everyone's kind......"

King Yi waved his arm: "Your Highness doesn't need to persuade much!" This king is a happy man, and he doesn't like the style of hiding and tucking. Let's just make it clear, this king doesn't plan to leave Jingshi, so don't take the trouble to do it! ”

"Then don't blame the lowly emperor!" Guo Xiangren shouted.

King Yi drank a few cups in a row, and he was already drunk, and then he was so angry that he got into a seizure, slapped the table violently, and the cups and plates shook: "Don't scare me with this, I'm still afraid that you won't succeed!" Hurry up and go to the table, and this king will also be presented! Whoever says it is justified will determine success or failure! ”

"Virtuous brother......" The prince looked at King Yi in embarrassment.

How can King Yi care about this, he clenched his fists and said: "Your Highness, I don't want to sit here for a moment, farewell!" Then he kicked away the tables and chairs, threw his sleeves away, and left the hall in an uproar.

The prince wiped the wine on the table and looked around indifferently: "You can all see how reasonable and deferential I am to my brother, but unfortunately he doesn't pay attention to it at all, but he is furious. This king thinks that you Zhongshu Province can jointly sign a concert, so that your father and emperor can learn of this person's disobedience, and you can quickly expel him from the palace. Guys, what do you think? ”

"Up! A must go! Several of the chroniclers saw the faces of the politicians, and they scrambled to be the first to argue.

"What's the Prime Minister's idea?" The prince turned his head and asked.

Su Zongshan sat on the chair like a sculpture, and said slowly: "After all, King Yi is the heir of the saint, and it is inconvenient for our foreign ministers to intervene, so everything is subject to the prince's disposal." ”

"Okay, you can do it."

Su Zongshan received the order, and immediately asked the clerk at the banquet to remove the wine and food, took the pen and paper, wrote for a while, and then it was completed, and then handed it over to the second counselor: "You and others also signed." ”

Guo Xiang people picked up the pen and wrote, halfway through the writing, but saw that Minghui on the side did not move, so he turned sideways and asked: "Lord Ming, do you sympathize with King Yi?" ”

When the prince heard the word 'sympathy', his reaction was as swift as lightning, and he immediately set his eyes on Minghuiguang.

"Your Highness," Ming Huiguang coughed a few times and exhorted with a serious expression, "Since the destruction of the Willow Party, although there are still many provincial officials, most of them are subordinate officials, and the chief official is only three of me. With only three people's names signed, it is difficult to convince the public to represent the wishes of the entire Zhongshu Province in a grand manner. There are still two vacancies in the provincial ministers, and we should not act arbitrarily, but should be cautious. ”

"You won't sign?" The crown prince didn't care about his suggestion in the slightest, and asked coldly.

Minghuiguang took a step back and knelt on the ground: "The minister is concerned about the matter, and he does not dare to agree to His Highness's request." After that, he broke out in a cold sweat, and his back was quickly soaked.

"Yes," the prince sneered, "and in the future you will be guilty of the crime together with my brother-in-law." After the political participation express sign, I took this recital to the table. ”

"Your Highness Xie......" Minghuiguang nodded solemnly.

King Yi went straight back to the court room where he lived, and in addition to being angry, he also summoned Liu Chenzhai to come and interrogate. At this time, Chen Zhai was helping the sergeant pack his things, and not far from him, so he came on foot and closed the door to discuss.

"The prince really shouldn't be openly angry!" Chenzhai patted his forehead and sighed.

"Sir doesn't know what's going on, so he should be angry this time!" King Yi's face turned red, and he spat out the smell of wine and said, "The prince has made things difficult for me in every way, and he has played a conspiracy at the banquet, if I don't provoke this contradiction, I will fight with the prince without a name!" This is an opportunity. Is there no plan for fasting? ”

Chen Zhai brushed his beard and groaned, and said: "The subordinates came here, and they are not familiar with life, how dare they set foot in the troubled water in front of them?" Lord Ye said before, if you have something to discuss with him, why don't you send an envoy to ask and see how they deal with it? ”

"You don't have to send people, I can't trust anyone else now," King Yi said firmly, "In this way, you stay here to guard the sergeant, and I will go to the military headquarters again!" ”
