Pang Taiqing held his breath and nervously waited for the princess to make a decision.

She got up with difficulty, made a blessing, and said: "Your Majesty, deducting money is already a capital punishment for the courtiers, so you can be exempted if you are not summoned to enter the palace." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone on the stage was amused, and Pang Taiqing in the audience breathed a sigh of relief. Emperor An solemnly bowed: "That's the case over there, this matter ends here!" If I hear about you Pang Taiqing again, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

After that, Emperor An walked out with the two princes, and Pang Taiqing followed His Majesty's steps. After Emperor An walked out of the Xingqing Palace, he dared to raise his head and get up, but he was not in a hurry to leave. It was the eyes that looked at his daughter that were full of unkindness, Pang Ruoyun sighed in his heart, knowing that he couldn't escape this scolding tonight.

Yu Yi helped Bai Jiangyi sit down, checked the injury again to make sure that he was okay, and then said with a worried face: "Wait for me here after it's over, I'll take you back to the house." ”

Bai Jiangyi smiled sweetly and responded obediently: "Okay! ”

Yu Yi rubbed her head dotingly, and saluted Queen An with Shen Jiayi before reluctantly leaving. Pang Taiqing quickly followed the pace of His Royal Highness King Lin, and thanked him when he left the Xingqing Palace. Yu Yi didn't stop his steps, and asked, "What are you doing with King Xie Ben, a huge man?" It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who begged for mercy. ”

Pang Taiqing echoed: "What His Royal Highness King Lin said is very true, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will personally visit. ”

Yu Yi snorted, paused and then said: "Huge man, today's affairs are not taken care of by this king's wife, it doesn't mean that this king will be so calculated, if I know that the huge man's beloved daughter is arrogant and domineering, this king will definitely act according to the law." ”

Pang Taiqing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was shocked and hurriedly responded: "Yes, the minister knows." ”

This accident didn't affect the palace banquet tonight, and after the incident, the men should drink and chat, and Yu Yi still had that cold appearance and the Shen family frequently clinked glasses. During this period, he met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhao Changge, and the two smiled heartily and did not say much. Although Yu Yi has not been in the capital for many years, he doesn't know the intrigue of the hundreds of officials in this palace, but his analysis of the situation is clear. Pang Taiqing connived at his daughter's arrogance, it was not a capital crime, it was nothing more than a matter of not strictly disciplining and saying a few words, even if he knew the law and violated the law and drew a knife at the palace gate, it would not let this Shangshu who had been in the Criminal Department for many years sue the old man and return to his hometown, Emperor An deliberately was so angry, just to wait for this Zhao Changge to come forward to stop it, so that this Shangshu of the Criminal Department would have a good impression of the prince who was unlearned and unskilled in the eyes of ordinary people. If it is said that the first rescue made Pang Taiqing change his mind, then the second rescue made him more certain of his position.

Remembering what Emperor An said earlier, many ministers in the court impeached His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for indulgence in fun and wanted Emperor An to change the prince. Zhao Yixuan Yu has never seen it, but he has also heard a lot of rumors about him, he is knowledgeable, courageous, motivated, and hard-working, all of which are good words. Despite this, this Zhao Yixuan is not a prince after all, he is just a prince, a prince born to a concubine, he can't go to the court, and he has no foundation in the court.

Looking at His Royal Highness the Prince, who likes to linger in the Qinglou House and the gambling house on weekdays, is he really what the world sees? In other words, the country that Emperor An worked so hard to build, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers who lived and worked in peace and contentment in exchange for their lives, would really pass on the throne to such a prince so firmly?

Yu Yi's answer is no, but what is negative is not whether it is good or not, but whether it is good or not, what is denied is the side that His Royal Highness the Prince has shown to the world.

Because of this, Yu Yi had some bad conjectures in his heart. Emperor An is in good health, why did he suddenly win people's hearts for Zhao Changge? Could it be ......

In this palace banquet, Emperor An's original idea was that some ministers were dissatisfied with the women's entry into the Shangli Academy, so they set up a special place for them to speak freely, but I don't know if the ministers were open-minded or were disturbed by Pang Taiqing's incident and did not dare to offend the emperor again. Emperor An didn't care, and he didn't take the initiative to say, anyway, the opportunity was given to them, and whether he could catch it or not was not a matter for Emperor An, who was the king of a country, to take care of.

The women's banquet was healthier, and the ladies drank only fruit tea, only the clever and eccentric Princess Lin and the daughter of the prince and the prince drank fruit wine cup after cup. Queen An was overwhelmed by alcohol, but she was also coaxed by Bai Jiangyi to take a sip, and it tasted good.

Push the glass and change the lamp, and the wine will pass three rounds. The sky outside is dark, the moon is in the sky, the spring breeze is sleet, and it is refreshing.

The ministers dispersed and went to the gate of the palace to wait for their daughters.

Yu Yi felt that most of his lady was drunk again, so he went straight to the women's seat, and before he could step into the Xingqing Palace, Emperor An hurriedly took the lead.

The ladies in the palace were almost scattered, and the few remaining ones also gave blessings to Emperor An and Empress An. An Di walked to Empress An with slightly shaky steps. Sure enough, none of the two people who drank at the women's table were awake. Bai Jiangyi is better, at least he is still awake but he is in a trance, and then looking at Shen Xuan, his fair face is flushed, and he keeps hiccups, and he has long lost the appearance of the county lord, like a drunkard who has drunk too much. The Shen family couldn't bear to look directly at this disgraced sister, but they also dutifully picked her up and walked out of the Xingqing Palace.

Yu Yi also wanted to take the lady home, but Emperor An sat opposite her with a pot of wine regardless of her image, and heroically unsealed the wine seal for himself and Bai Jiangyi, and his tone was very provocative: "Bai family lady, can you still have a few drinks with me?" ”

Seeing this, Yu Yi wanted to stop it, but he didn't expect his own lady to be intimidated at all, and slapped his palm on the table: "Come on!" Who's afraid of whom! ”

After that, he raised the wine glass and collided with Andy's wine glass, and then drank it all in a big gulp, and did not forget to reverse the wine glass to provoke after the end.

"Good amount of alcohol!" An Di did not hesitate to praise himself, "The lady of the Bai family is so bold, this time I will accompany you to drink!" ”

Bai Jiangyi was full of wine, his pretty face was flushed, and he shouted with a smile: "Okay! ”

The two glasses of wine were filled again, and they were drunk again.

There was no way for Yu Yi to stand aside, after all, he knew that the plan of the king of this country had not yet succeeded, and he would not let them go.

Come on. Emperor An saw that Bai Jiangyi was almost drunk, so he asked Gonggong Li and Bai Jiangyi's personal maid Ah Ruan.

Ah Ruan helped his young lady to leave, and Emperor An asked again: "Lady of the Bai family, is it okay for me to give you a good place to live?" ”

Bai Jiangyi replied in a daze: "Okay, with Sister Wanrong in Your Majesty, you can rest assured..."

Emperor An furrowed his brows when he heard this, and continued unhappily: "How can I give you full authority to take care of your stable residence!" ”
