Chapter 69: Turning the Tide
"She is the king's personal handmaid."
Xiao Yinhan took a step forward, just blocking Jiang Tang's figure behind him.
"A personal handmaiden? Haven't really heard of it before? Could it be that the palace maids are not enough?"
The second prince laughed and teased Xiao Yinhan, and squeezed his eyebrows with the sixth man on the side.
Xiao Yinhan's eyebrows and eyes were tired, and it was rare that he didn't have a straight face: "I'm used to it, others don't like it." ”
This is used to it, and naturally refers to Jiang Tang.
As soon as these words came out, people who were not so curious couldn't help but look at Jiang Tang.
I tried to see the girl's appearance clearly, but her head was lowered, like seeing flowers in the fog, and she couldn't see clearly at all.
The second prince wanted to say something more, but Xiao Yinhan had already left with someone.
This uncle wants to leave, but no one dares to stop him.
Everyone could only watch the two leave, and as soon as he left, the atmosphere suddenly relaxed.
Xiao Eleven muttered, "Fourth brother is really ...... Every time he's there, I can't help but be nervous. ”
The person next to him laughed: "Look at your appearance." ”
Then without waiting for him to refute, he added: "I'm different, I just hear his voice and I'm nervous." ”
The people on the side laughed together.
The sixth prince looked at the figure that was gradually moving away, and smiled: "It's quite interesting that the fourth brother would bring a woman into the palace." ”
"Huh."
A sneer suddenly sounded in his ears, and he looked up at a face that couldn't see emotions clearly.
-
"Don't worry, the princess will wait here obediently."
The dinner was about to start, but Xiao Yinhan suddenly changed his mind and took Jiang Tang to a side hall to wait, and no longer took her to the banquet.
And this is exactly what Jiang Tang intended, so he agreed without hesitation.
Xiao Yinhan quietly observed the girl's expression, and found that her expression was natural and sweet, and she was not half dissatisfied, and he was inexplicably relieved.
This emotion came too quickly, and he couldn't catch it for a while, but he didn't think much about it, and said softly:
"When you're tired, go inside and rest, don't stand and wait. I will instruct the palace people to bring you some food. ”
After he finished speaking, the little girl's eyes lit up, and she grabbed his hand and shook it a few times like a coquettish, and praised in a sweet voice: "Lord Wang, you are so good." ”
The girl's warm and sincere dependence on admirers made the man very useful, and gently pinched her little face, and then turned away.
Halfway through, Xiao Yinhan stopped and looked back, and sure enough, he saw the girl standing in place and staring at him quietly.
At that moment, an indescribable taste swelled up in his chest, he frowned slightly, and left decisively.
[Xiao Yinhan was moved, and the strategy index was +20]
Jiang Tang raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't speak, turned around and walked towards the hall.
The banquet was held in the courtyard in front of the Qianqing Palace, and there were a large number of civil and military officials, princes and princesses, children of the clan, and concubines of the harem.
Xiao Yinhan sat in his own position, except for occasionally responding to the left and right toasts and congratulations, but he was a little absent-minded.
For some reason, what he kept thinking about was the girl he left in the side hall.
"I brought it here if I knew it......"
"Fourth brother, what did you say?"
The eighth prince was sitting next to him, thinking that Xiao Yinhan was talking to him, so he asked again.
"Nothing."
Xiao Yinhan didn't want to speak, and from time to time someone came over to toast, although he was indifferent, he also drank.
In the middle of the banquet, Emperor Huaiwen's poems flourished, which was regarded as a poem, and then ordered the hundred officials to make poems with the theme of "Moon".
Xiao Yinhan has always been uninterested in these, and temporarily left the scene in the name of sobering up.
The side hall where Jiang Tang was placed was not far away, and at this time, the palace people were all waiting for the dinner in the Qianqing Palace, and they didn't meet anyone along the way.
He returned to the side hall, but when he entered, he didn't see the figure that should have been here, and he was about to call someone with his eyebrows, and he heard a voice with a panic: "Lord Wang!" ”
The next moment, a soft cloud rushed into his arms, and the girl hugged his strong waist and shivered in his arms.
Xiao Yinhan's dissatisfaction turned into surprise, and the hand that was about to push her away fell back on her shoulder: "What's wrong?" ”
Jiang Tang raised his head, and there seemed to be tears on his beautiful little face: "Lord Wang." ”
"You come with me."
She stepped out of the man's arms first, then took his hand and walked inside.
Xiao Yinhan was even more puzzled in his heart, and followed in.
As soon as I entered, I saw a female body lying in the corner, and I saw that she was wearing a palace maid.
"What's going on?"
"It was the slave who knocked me out."
Jiang Tang's whole body was trembling when he spoke, and Xiao Yinhan realized that the girl's hands were so cold.
"Just now, the slave maid wanted to go to the bed and take a nap, but suddenly she heard someone talking outside."
Jiang Tang recalled what happened just now, and his face was still afraid: "Someone wants to harm the prince." ”
Xiao Yinhan followed her gaze and looked at the palace maid on the ground: "They want to drug the palace, and then this palace maid climbs, climbs ......"
"Climb the bed."
She couldn't say that word for a long time, so Xiao Yinhan grabbed it directly.
His eyes were extremely cold, his expression was fierce, and anger began to accumulate in his chest: "Come ......"
"Lord Wang!"
Jiang Tang raised his voice and interrupted him: "These people are obviously prepared, if you call someone directly, I'm afraid you will startle the snake, and the people behind you may take the opportunity to run away!" ”
The ruthlessness between Xiao Yinhan's eyebrows has not disappeared, and he is still shocked when he looks at her: "What do you want to say?" ”
Jiang Tang slowly clenched his hand, his eyes did not dodge: "Wait." Wait for the mastermind behind the scenes to reveal themselves. ”
In the original work, the male protagonist also killed people in anger as soon as he found that the palace maid was climbing the wall.
But this is the palace, and his violent behavior has attracted a lot of ridicule from the clan, and instead of finding out who is behind it, he has been used by people with intentions, implying that he is inhumane.
This is a great shame for the arrogant male protagonist, but he has to defend himself like a jade for the original heroine, unwilling to spoil others, and use facts to break the rumors.
I can only eat Coptis dumb and swallow the bitterness by myself.
Because of this, his personality became more and more distorted and perverted, and later he killed many backyard women in order to vent, which made his reputation worse.
The reason why Jiang Tang entered the palace tonight was to reverse the situation for him.
"Lord Wang, don't you want to know who is so bold as to frame you?"
Xiao Yinhan originally wanted to say that there were more people in this palace who wanted to frame him.
But looking at the girl's distressed and nervous eyes, she subconsciously swallowed it back.
In this girl's heart, the prince is omnipotent.
Xiao Yinhan didn't want to break her cognition, the dark changes in his eyes surged, and finally, he chose to agree.
"Okay, this king will see with his own eyes, who wants to die so much!"
"Ahh
At the banquet, someone suddenly sneezed hard, said perfunctory words when the brothers on the side were concerned, and withdrew his gaze when his eyes fell on the seat that had been empty for a long time opposite.
