On the day of the Emperor's birthday, Gu Changfeng held Bai Ze in his arms and went to the palace in a carriage.

On the road.

[Don't make any more mistakes today, just be obedient and don't run to Shen Mingjue.] Xiao Wo was scared by this arbitrary host. If he was warned again, he might have to stay in a cat's body forever. Of course, this doesn't mean that cats are bad. First, they have too many limitations and can't be with their hosts all the time. Second... why does he like Pixiu more and more? They are all male cats!

"I know, I know. Shen Mingyuan is sitting outside the hall. I can't go even if I want to. Oh, no, I don't want to go. I don't want to go." He stroked the cat hard, causing the little snail to meow.

Gu Changfeng sat upright in the carriage, his heart as calm as water. Suddenly, he asked, "Xiao Wo, are you...is Bai Ze neutered?" Why is this cat rubbing against him so vigorously?

Without waiting for Xiao Snail to answer, he picked up the cat and took a closer look.

"Well, no."

[Of course not. Don’t you think about the current science and technology? How can a cat be sterilized? ? ? ] Xiao Wo got anxious and pretended to scratch him.

"Okay, stop making trouble. It's time to get off the car." Gu Changfeng put the cat in a cage, held the cat in his left hand, held the birthday gift for the little emperor in his right hand, and entered Xingqing Palace with Zhao Si.

This time the emperor's birthday was different from the previous ones. The Ministry of Rites prepared for more than a month. Banquets were set up on both sides of the outer hall of Xingqing Palace. Important officials of the court could bring their families to attend. A stage was built in the middle, and a famous opera troupe in the capital was invited. Inside the hall was a private banquet for the royal family.

When Gu Changfeng went in, he happened to see the Shen father and son.

General Shen saluted him and exchanged a few simple words. The two sons behind him also saluted him in turn.

Gu Changfeng remembered Xiao Wo's instructions and left without saying anything. But when he was near the inner hall, he suddenly wanted to look back.

Shen Mingyuan and Shen Mingjue don't look alike, but his features and eyebrows are very similar to General Shen. I don't know why the young general, who is said to be extremely domineering, looks particularly pale and weak today.

What was puzzling was that the father and son of the Lou family who arrived behind him sat down next to General Shen, while Shen Mingyuan's lover Lou Xu sat down next to Shen Mingjue and immediately hooked his shoulders.

Gu Changfeng's eyelids twitched, and he turned around and walked into the inner hall.

Wen Heng had already arrived. As a relative of the Concubine Dowager's mother's family, he did not have a close relationship with the Emperor after the Concubine Dowager's death, so he sat in a seat closer to the outside.

"Sir."

"Master Wen, you're here so early. The emperor hasn't come yet. Don't be too reserved." He adhered to the principle of following the plot seriously and said, "Master Wen is the only one at the banquet who knows me well. Why don't we sit together?"

Wen Heng was not wearing the plain white clothes today. The emperor was holding a banquet, which was a good day for universal celebration. He specially found a dark green cloud embroidered brocade gauze to wear. Although this brocade gauze was a popular style three years ago, cloud embroidery was in fashion at the moment. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't know that he had remade an old piece of clothing.

Gu Changfeng also noticed it and praised casually: "The pattern of your clothes is really beautiful. Many people in the capital are wearing Yunxiu clothes."

Wen Heng smiled and said, "Your Excellency, thank you for your compliment."

Not long after the two of them sat down, the people who were supposed to come to the banquet had basically gathered, and soon the emperor's sedan chair arrived.

After the last time he went to Wenyuexian to eavesdrop, he already knew the secret of the Minister of Rites, so he deliberately pulled him to his side. The Minister of Rites was outside the hall and Wenheng was inside the hall. He wanted to see how Zhou Ling and Zhou Chaoyang would poison Wenheng.
