Chapter 139: Palace Banquet
The palace banquet came as scheduled.
Su Lixiao was dressed in a prince Xuan Mang dress, sitting on the right hand side of His Majesty, and the civil and military ministers of the court stepped forward to toast and make friends with Su Lixiao.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in full bloom today, comparing us to all of them!"
Shu Lixiao was already tall, and his demeanor was noble and elegant, and it was rare to see him change into a formal prince robe today, making Su Lixiao's whole person like a noble god.
"Lord Zhao is overrated."
Su Lixiao raised his glass and greeted Lord Zhao in front of him.
"Your Highness, the old minister's words are true!"
"Yes, Your Royal Highness the Prince, I will find that the Crown Prince is more and more similar to His Majesty when he was young! In addition to your appearance, your temperament is now the same as that of your young majesty."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already the prince, and it is reasonable that he is similar to His Majesty!"
Unlike the starry moon in the sky, no one cares about it in front of the table.
Originally, he thought that he had to deliberately stimulate Su Chen'an to arouse the other party's killing intent towards him, but now it seems that even if he doesn't do it, Su Chen'an has already hated his situation.
"Fifth brother, I will give you a cup for my brother!"
Su Lixiao knew it in his heart, and deliberately greeted Su Chen'an in front of many courtiers.
「……!」
Seeing Su Lixiao's move, Su Chen'an only thought that the other party deliberately wanted him to be embarrassed in front of everyone, so he became more and more jealous in his heart.
"Brother Crown Prince, what do you mean by this?"
"Brother Huang, I was recently accused by my father of being ineffective, and now, Brother Wang actually wants to raise a glass to me, I don't know what is on my body worthy of your toast?"
Su Lixiao wanted to show his dignity and show that he was favored by his father, but Su Chen'an didn't cooperate with Su Lixiao to play such a brother, friend and brother play!
"Could it be that in the eyes of Brother Wang, the fact that I was criticized and scolded by my father is also worth celebrating?"
Su Chen'an's extremely uncooperative attitude made the ministers of civil and military affairs present look a little more, they used to think that the five princes were tepid and had not attracted much attention, but they never expected that the nature of the five princes was so yin and yang, and they didn't know how to read the occasion.
"Fifth brother, the reason why my brother toasts to you is because tomorrow is the fifth brother's birthday, and I want to congratulate you on your birthday in advance through today's palace banquet."
There was surprise in his eyes, and he explained to the people in front of him.
It's good that I didn't mention this matter, but when I mentioned this matter, the anger in Su Chen's peace of mind soared directly!
His birthday was originally tomorrow, and Su Chen'an thought that so many things had happened this year, and his father would treat him well and give him a decent birthday.
But what Ang Shuchen never expected was that just two or three days ago, when his father reprimanded him, he told him that there was no matter about the birthday banquet.
His father, because of his anger, canceled his last dignity as a prince!
As long as Su Chen'an thinks of this matter, he can't wait to kill Su Lixiao!
If it weren't for the existence of Su Lixiao, his father would never have been so ruthless to him! Su Lixiao not only made him lose the favor of his father, but also went to the most basic dignity of a prince!
"Fifth brother, didn't you think that your brother would remember your birthday?" Su Lixiao glanced at Su Chen'an's clenched fists and deliberately continued.
「……!」
Su Chen'an is already gnashing his teeth.
When his father refused to let the inner eunuch come forward to announce his birthday for him, Su Chen'an did not allow anyone to mention his birthday in front of him.
Today, the people in the Five Princes' Mansion were all silent, and they didn't dare to mention the word birthday in front of the Five Princes.
Among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, people who knew the inside story would not take the initiative to mention this matter.
They naturally took into account the identity of the five princes.
However, Su Lixiao is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his brother, even if he mentions it now
The matter of Su Chen'an's birthday will not be criticized.
"Fifth brother, for my brother, I wish you a year and a year, and everything you want can come true!"
At first glance, there is nothing wrong with the blessings of the long-awaited Xiaoxiao.
But at this awkward moment today, these good wishes will make everything more embarrassing and embarrassing.
"Humph!"
Su Chen'an was stimulated by Su Lixiao so repeatedly, and he couldn't contain the anger in his heart at all.
He got up directly from the palace banquet, left everyone and turned to leave.
Su Chen'an was worried that if he didn't leave at this time, it was very likely that he would directly stab him with a knife in the next moment!
Su Chen'an left the palace banquet and climbed on the palace wall of the royal family alone to calm down.
Looking at the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in front of him, after the death of his father, all of them will become detached, and Su Chen'an felt both jealousy and hatred in his heart.
He originally wanted to come to the city wall to calm down, but the more he looked at this beautiful country, the more uneasy he became!
Everyone persuaded him to be generous, but he couldn't do the so-called generosity.
When others give some family wealth to their siblings, they will feel distressed like a knife.
What he let out was not just a piece of family property, but the entire country, such a charming and magnificent country, how could he give it to others like this?
"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"
Su Chen'an clenched his fists, and then punched the wall.
"Five princes, don't say so, this is the palace, be careful that the walls have ears." Jiang Kuo quietly left the palace banquet and came out to find Su Chen'an when everyone was surrounding Su Lixiao.
When he saw others standing on the city wall, Jiang Kuo climbed the steps.
Unexpectedly, before he could speak, he was surprised by Su Chen'an's words.
"Grandfather, you shouldn't stand here at the city wall with me, you should be with Su Lixiao, and then be like those civil servants and generals who flattered him!"
Su Chen was relieved and didn't want to hear any more words from Jiang Kuo.
Because he has heard too many such words since he was a child, his ears have to be calloused.
"I know that Your Highness doesn't want to see Lao Chen's face now, but what I want to tell Your Highness is that if you really plan to attack Su Lixiao at the palace banquet today, then you should pack up all your expressions now and return to the palace banquet again!"
Jiang Kuo knows a little bit about his grandson.
"Do you still want to implement your plan today? Five princes, if you miss today, the next palace banquet will have to wait for a while."
Jiang Kuo's words made Su Chen's enlightenment.
He came to this palace banquet today, not to quarrel with Su Lixiao, nor to see the ministers flattering Su Lixiao.
He came to the palace banquet to take advantage of the large number of people and kill Su Lixiao in one fell swoop.
"Grandfather, I see what you mean."
"Good boy, Five Emperors' Palace, don't worry, as long as today's things are done, these thousands of miles will be yours alone."
Jiang Kuo heard Su Chen'an's deep jealousy and hatred, and at the same time heard Su Chen's ambition in peace of mind!
A manly man should take his family and country as his own responsibility.
Now, Su Chen'an has such a big volunteer, Jiang Kuo has no reason not to support it!
Shuchen cleaned up his mood on the city wall, and then pretended to be indifferent, and returned to the palace banquet again.
He carried two glasses of wine, one for Su Lixiao and one for himself.
"Brother Huang, it's my fault, I shouldn't embarrass Brother Huang on such a day, and my brother will punish himself with a drink."
After finishing speaking, Su Chen'an raised his head and drank the wine in the cup.
"If the imperial brother really forgives me, please drink this glass of wine!"
Su Chen'an handed another glass of wine in his hand to Su Lixiao, and looked directly at Su Lixiao in his eyes.
"Okay."
Su Lixiao stretched out his hand to take it
Wine glasses.
On such an occasion, Su Chen'an made a move on him, and there were so many people watching all this, and then he could sit down on Su Chen'an's charge.
Su Lixiao didn't worry about Su Chen'an poisoning him at all.
When he came to the banquet today, he had already taken the antidote pill that Xi Qingyan had prepared for him, and the ordinary poison had no effect on him.
"Brother Huang, wait a minute."
Seeing that Su Lixiao did not hesitate at all, he reached out and stopped the wine glass.
"Brother Huang is now the crown prince, you can't eat the things brought by others casually, today I was negligent."
"Fifth brother, this is a bad word, you are not someone else, you are my sibling."
Su Lixiao didn't expect that Su Chen'an would give him such a hand.
He thought that Su Chen'an had been controlled by the anger in his heart and no longer had his senses, so he would attack him in public.
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, Su Chen'an stretched out his hand to stop him.
"You can't say that, Brother Wang, you are my imperial brother, the crown prince of this country, you must be careful in every move!"
Su Chen'an still insisted on his opinion.
"Come, let's test this cup of wine from this king!"
Su Chen'an took the initiative to propose an inspection, and the people on the side felt that the five princes were moody and speechless.
However, the inner eunuchs who served in the palace did not dare to slack off, they brought people who specially tested the poison, and then checked the wine one by one.
"Returning to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Fifth Prince, there is no poison in this wine, you can eat it with confidence."
"In this way, this king is also relieved, today, this king thanks the royal brother for those blessings, and I will also urge myself to serve the family and country like the imperial brother in the future."
Su Chen'an faced Su Lixiao and spoke seriously.
Then, Su Lixiao drank the glass of wine.
After the palace feast.
Shu Lixiao summoned Yun Fei, and then let the carriage gallop to take him back to the prince's mansion.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
"Alcohol is poisonous."
Su Lixiao looked at Yunfei and said word by word.
「……!」
Yun Fei never expected Su Lixiao to say this.
"Master, how are you feeling now? Those inner prisons are fine, why does the master feel unwell after drinking?"
He couldn't figure it out.
At the palace banquet just now, Yun Fei saw with his own eyes that someone had tested the wine.
"Just because other people are drinking it doesn't mean that the main hall is okay when they drink it, and the things mixed with this drink should be the medicine that caused my body to have a poisonous attack......
Soon after Su Lixiao drank it, there were some subtle changes in his body.
"My poison hasn't flareed up for a long time because of the pills left by Qingyan, but today I suddenly found that the poison has made a comeback......
When Su Lixiao noticed something unusual, he knew what Su Chen'an had done to him.
The dust that was placed in the wine was not poison at all, but a harmless medicine that was only against him.
"Then the master's subordinates will go to the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites to invite the crown princess!"
Yun Fei realized the seriousness of the matter, and while asking his subordinates to escort Su Chen'an back to the Prince's Mansion, he went to the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites to pick up the banquet.
Inside Hanlian Garden.
Xi Qingyan lay on the bed basking in the sun.
Because of the palace banquet, her father Lord Xi was not at home, and Xi Qingyan could also enjoy a rare time that belonged to her.
"Bang!"
Before Xi Qingyan could close her eyes and recuperate, she found that Yun Fei had fallen from the sky and landed in front of her.
"Crown Princess, it's not good!"
