Baili Huan looked at Shi Qinghuan and motioned for her to continue.

Shi Qinghuan said, "I thought that the prince, Cheng Yangfeng, and you were a three-legged stand, allowing the court to achieve a check and balance effect, but now it is actually that your side has fallen behind, specifically, the saint's side has fallen behind."

If I guessed correctly, now the saint is afraid that the prince will seek the throne, and he is also afraid that Cheng Yangfeng will be the opposite, so the supervision department must be more active in recruiting talents, so that the people who fancy it are all mainly civil, military, financial, and tripartite, and they are exempted from the temple test, and they are directly used by the saint, and the saint is enriching his own power. ”

Shi Qinghuan said, his face puzzled, "But what I don't know is that in the current situation, is the crown prince superior, or..."

Baili Huan raised his eyes, and with one look, Shi Qinghuan's brows wrinkled.

Even better, it is Cheng Yangfeng.

That's not a problem.

But it's also an opportunity.

It is difficult to deal with Cheng Yangfeng, but there is a saint behind him, and it is a great opportunity.

And at present, it seems that although Cheng Hexuan, as the crown prince, has become the other party of the three forces, he has no intention of fighting with Baili Huan, and he should only protect himself by fighting in the middle of the confrontation.

In this way, just concentrate on dealing with Cheng Yangfeng.

Seeing Shi Qinghuan's thoughts, Baili Huan reminded, "Don't be in a hurry, especially, you can't show your flaws in front of people, otherwise..."

"I understand."

In the time that followed, Baili Huan roughly told Shi Qinghuan some details of the current situation.

In the end, it is the court, and many of them are still different from the outside.

Even if the news of Wufangzhai is about the deep palace, it will always be not necessarily too accurate.

This is also Shi Qinghuan's disadvantage, fortunately, with the cooperation of Baili Truss, it can be regarded as foolproof.

Seeing that it was noon, Shi Qinghuan followed Baili Huan to the palace banquet.

Wait on the side in advance and wait for everyone to enter first.

The first to arrive were naturally the queen and the concubines.

As soon as he saw the queen, Shi Qinghuan's heart softened.

That's her godmother.

gave her the same pampering as her mother.

Elegant as before, but also haggard.

The concubines sat down with a smile, and Shi Qinghuan stood behind Baili Huan and saluted, but he was only glanced at lightly.

Then there were the princes and princesses, and some princes and nobles who happened to be in the palace to ask for peace.

Shi Qinghuan was still silent, just hoping that no one would see her.

"I heard my father say that Brother Baili had dinner together today, and I thought about whether I was lying to me, but I didn't expect it to be true."

When the voice came, Shi Qinghuan hurriedly followed Baili Huan and saluted, "I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"Hey, what's polite with me? Hey? Who is this? ”

Cheng Hexuan's gaze fell on Shi Qinghuan, and Shi Qinghuan had no choice but to answer with a light smile, "Back to Your Highness, the grass people are the second son of the Su family in Fangdong, Su Zhou." ”

After that, Baili Huan added, "I also came to participate in the temple examination today." ”

"It's you."

Cheng Hexuan smiled gracefully, and he was already high-spirited, but he was even more gentle and kind.

"I heard before that there was a talented man who was found by Brother Baili and attached great importance to it, and now it seems that it is you. I have also heard for a long time that Brother Su is brilliant, and when I see it today, it is really gorgeous! ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an overreputation, it's just rumors from the outside world, and it's my honor to be appreciated by Lord Zuo Xiang."

Humble and polite, Cheng Hexuan looked appreciative.

At this moment, a chuckle came from outside, "Second Prince Su is modest, who doesn't know Fangdong, the second son is talented, there are countless poems, and this king is fortunate to know a friend of the second son, this white son, is also talented, but he admires the second son very much, it can be seen that the second son of Su is really powerful!" ”

Cheng Yangfeng walked over with a smile, Shi Qinghuan bowed, and then said with a light smile, "The prince said that he was laughing, it was all praised by people outside, but there was one thing, the prince should have made a mistake." ”

"Oh? What's the matter? ”

"I've been frail and sick since I was a child, I don't go out at home, and I don't deal with outsiders, so the white boy in the prince's mouth, let alone a friend, doesn't know me."

This temptation is a little rougher.

Cheng Yangfeng didn't care when he saw this, "In this way, this king has been deceived, seeing that he has some talent, I didn't expect to be so ignorant, it's okay to deceive me, but if you are ignorant enough to deceive your father in the future, it will be a crime of deceiving the king, and the whole door will be affected!" ”

When he said this, Cheng Yangfeng's eyes were fixed on Shi Qinghuan, but Shi Qinghuan was calm.

"That's what the prince said."

The look is natural and the smile is as usual.

Seeing that he couldn't see the slightest flaw, Cheng Yangfeng looked at Baili Huan, "I haven't congratulated yet, Zuo Xiang has another talent." ”

"It's not as good as the prince's case!"

These two people, as long as they are paired, it is a spark flying.

Everyone around felt the atmosphere here and looked sideways.

Fortunately, at this time, the inner servant spread, "The Holy Lord has arrived." ”

Then everyone got up and saluted.

Shi Qinghuan stood behind Baili Truss, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why Cheng Yangfeng was tempted and threatened must still be suspicious in his heart, but he didn't really find out anything.

In the future, you will have to be more careful.

Cheng Ao sat down, with a friendly face, and after everyone sat down, the delicacies were presented, and the family banquet officially began.

However, the family banquet of the royal family is different from ordinary people.

Even if it seems to be simple, it is hidden, and you come and go, and it is very turbulent.

But these have nothing to do with Shi Qinghuan.

She just sat quietly in the corner, trying to avoid everyone's gaze, moving her chopsticks from time to time, and listening to useful information.

"Princess Hengyue has arrived."

As soon as the voice came out, Shi Qinghuan's hand under his sleeve trembled slightly, and when he turned around, he saw a figure walking at the door.

Tall and thin, his posture is better than snow, and the whole person is surrounded by an indissolvable indifference and arrogance.

It was Hengyue, who was her best friend.

It's also the one who almost became her sister-in-law.

Shi Qinghuan remembered that Hengyue used to be the most smiling.

Ten years later, the real thing is not human.

Hengyue stepped forward, saluted, and sat down.

But as soon as she sat down, Concubine Jin on the side opened her mouth, "Yo, the princess is really becoming more and more noble now, and the family banquet appointed by the Holy Lord is long overdue!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Yue Heng glanced coldly, and the breath was like ice and snow instantly, and Concubine Jin's face turned white in an instant.

"I don't have the same leisurely as Concubine Jin, I recite Buddhist scriptures day and night, and I just did."

"Even so, it shouldn't..."

"How should it be? Shouldn't we pray for this dark inner palace? ”

In a word, Concubine Jin was speechless, and Concubine Yuan on one side couldn't speak, "Hengyue, although Concubine Jin's words are a little ugly, but you really shouldn't face the Buddha lamp every day, and you should think about it for yourself." ”

A look met, Concubine Jin hurriedly answered, "Holy Lord, the concubine heard that the country of Dayue has the meaning of being good with us for a hundred years, and Princess Hengyue is also so old, it's time to start a family, it's better to..."

"What's not as good as what? What does Concubine Jin mean, should you marry me? ”

"Why not? Hengyue, since you are my princess Tiansheng, you must have loyalty to the country. ”

The words are good, but they are just bullying Hengyue and no one takes care of them.

Shi Qinghuan on the side looked cold.

Hengyue's biological mother is Concubine Qian, who was deeply favored by the saints, but died early due to illness, and Hengyue was gradually despised by everyone.

If it weren't for the queen's care, as well as Hengyue's own tough temperament, I am afraid that he would have died in the harem, a place where people eat people and do not spit out bones.

Concubine Jin's words naturally aroused everyone's thoughts, their eyes were staggered, and a discussion sounded for a while.

Hengyue was unhurried, and after a sneer, he looked at Concubine Jin.

"Loyalty to the country? Concubine Jin said this, don't you think it's ridiculous? ”

"How ridiculous?"

"You are so stupid, and you are worthy to talk about loyalty to the country?"

After that, without waiting for Concubine Jin to refute, Hengyue got up and pointed to his long hair, which had been coiled up.

"I'll say it again, I'm Hengyue, I'm already a wife, and I don't have to worry about major events in my life."

"Hengyue..."

"Shut up, I'm Hengyue, Sheng, I am Shi Qingyu's surviving person, and when I die, I am Shi Qingyu's soul wife."
