Chapter 45

Ying Zhou moved into the palace.

In order to show his importance, the emperor connected several palaces together, enshrined them with imperial pens and dedicated them to the Immortal Palace, and dispatched nearly a hundred people from the palace to serve him.Gongs and drums were beating on Suzaku Street, and the imperial notices were dispatched from the capital to various places at high speed, announcing the will of Ying Zhou as the national teacher to the whole world.

The emperor wanted to build momentum. In the streets, alleys, restaurants and teahouses, the story of Ying Guoshi driving the spirit beast white tiger on Qiushui Mountain and repelling hundreds of fox demons was passed down by word of mouth. In just a few days, not to mention Dazhao, at least everyone in the capital knew about it. , no one knows.

Along with the imperial list, the obituary of Concubine Lou Gui was issued.

Due to his face, the emperor couldn't tell the world that he was deceived by a monster for three years. He only said that Concubine Lou Gui had died of a sudden illness, and he didn't even mention a specific illness.A few lines of words scrawled on the obituary cut off all the escape routes for Lou Liuyi, like a pebble thrown into the river and sea, a splash of water was quickly submerged in the monstrous waves of the immortal descending to earth.

Three days later, the emperor gave a banquet to welcome Zhou, and invited civil and military officials into the palace to accompany him. Xu Boyuan and Xu Jingluan were also in line, sitting at the head of Xu Li.

The emperor and Ying Zhou entered the palace one after the other, and everyone stood up to greet them.Ying Zhou was wearing a hookah-colored long-sleeved gown, his black hair was combed into the crown, and with that face, he really looked like a fairy. If you insisted that he was an ordinary person, no one would believe him.

Sensing Xu Jingluan's stealthy gaze, he bent his eyes.

Xu Jingluan forced the corners of her mouth to tighten, and after the emperor said a few words about the scene and ordered the banquet to begin, she quietly tugged at Xu Boyuan's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Brother, Ying Zhou smiled at us just now, did you see that?" Is it?"

Xu Boyuan glanced at her and said calmly, "Sit down."

Xu Jingluan stuck out the tip of her tongue and sat up straight, "We can go up and toast him later."

Xu Boyuan straightened the cuffs she had pulled off, "You can do it yourself."

Taking advantage of the cover of the court lady's flowing water serving dishes, Xu Jingluan quietly waved at Ying Zhou, and after getting a response from Ying Zhou, she turned her head and said in a drawn-out tone: "Although I want to avoid suspicion, it would be unnatural for you to avoid it too much. Yes, look at the prince, he has already gone."

Xu Boyuan lowered his eyelids, hiding the deep gaze in his eyes.

In fact, Xu Jingluan didn't need to say it at all. Whether it was the raised corners of her mouth when she saw them, the embarrassment when she was introduced by the emperor, or the flash of resistance when she saw Xu Li stand up, Ying Zhou's every move after entering the palace was very important. imprinted in the eyes.It wasn't that he was looking at it intentionally, it was because he looked all over the place and couldn't find anyone who was more outstanding than Ying Zhou. He just stood there quietly, which was enough to attract everyone's attention.

Ying Zhou sat on the left side of the emperor, Xu Li came forward with the jug, and raised his glass to Zhou, "I was deceived by that fox demon during the autumn hunting, and I almost misunderstood the national teacher. I have been looking for a chance to make amends. This toast National teacher, look at the national teacher and don't care about alone."

He turned his back to the crowd, with undisguised amazement and desire in his eyes.

Ying Zhou smiled awkwardly, Xu Jingluan had already told him what happened in the camp, it was almost inappropriate to say it, if Xu Li hadn't insisted that he was a monster, the emperor would not have sent people to set fire to the mountain.But he couldn't argue with Xu Li about this matter, so he raised his wine glass and touched him, "I didn't take it to heart, and you don't need to take it to heart."

Xu Li said with a smile: "The teacher of the country has a vast heart, and I am ashamed to be alone."

The wine in the palace banquet was much stronger than Qingjialou's sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and it burned immediately after one sip.

But Xu Li didn't let him go, and said loudly to the crowd: "The national teacher's entry into the mortal world must be due to the heaven's gratitude to the father and emperor for his hard work and love for the people. This cup is not as good as all the ministers together with the lonely, thank the gods, and hope that the weather will be smooth and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe." !"

The prince is a prince after all, with him taking the lead, everyone stood up, "May Dazhao have good weather, and the country will live in peace and prosperity!"

Since Xu Li, many people have come to toast, ministers, concubines, female family members, one after another, polite words, Ying Zhou didn't know how to refuse, so he could only maintain a stiff smile, accepting everything one by one.

After more than a dozen rounds like this, he didn't even have time to eat something. His stomach was overwhelmed, like a fire, burning all the way to the top of his head, making him dizzy, weak all over, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Another person walked up to him, but before he could see who it was, Ying Zhou subconsciously raised his wine glass.

He felt that the cup in his hand was taken away, and a new cup was stuffed in. The jade porcelain cup still had a little body temperature.Ying Zhou lowered his head and took a sip, only to find that it was warm tea.

He squinted his eyes, and could vaguely see the figure of the person coming, "Well, Xu Boyuan?"

"It's me." Xu Boyuan drank the wine in his glass, "You can't drink any more."

Ying Zhou nodded, "I seem to be drunk."

Xu Boyuan said to the internal supervisor behind him: "The national teacher is drunk, help him go back to rest."

The inner eunuch looked distressed, and secretly looked in the direction of the emperor, "This...the banquet is not over yet..." The emperor hasn't left yet, how can Ying Zhou leave?

"Little Bai," Xu Boyuan interrupted him directly, "Take him back."

The white cat let out a cry, and jumped out of Ying Zhou's embrace.

After being alone for a few days, although Xiaobai and him were not close, they were no longer so repulsive.Now Xiaobai no longer needs to disguise his identity in front of ordinary people, and he turns into a cat on weekdays just for the convenience of his actions.The white cat shook its hair and turned into a white tiger in the blink of an eye.

It was the first time for many people here to see Xiaobai Huaxing, and they suddenly gasped in surprise.The emperor looked over immediately, "Bo Yuan, what's wrong?"

Xu Boyuan replied: "The national teacher is drunk, I send him back."

The emperor glanced back and forth twice at Ying Zhou and Xu Boyuan who looked dazed, and after a long while of silent scrutiny, the emperor smiled, "Since the national teacher is drunk, let's leave tonight."

The smile was quite meaningful, and the emperor stood up, "Come, I will personally send the national teacher back."

Everyone was stunned.

The emperor walked over with the hand of the head of internal supervision, "Drunk after just a few drinks? The national teacher's alcohol capacity is not good——"

Xu Boyuan sideways out of the way.

"I asked you to serve the national teacher, is this how you serve?" The emperor slowly walked past Xu Boyuan, and said in a deep voice to the palace servant standing behind Zhou, "You still have to let the prince do it, don't you have any hands?"

The palace people were so frightened that their faces were livid, and they immediately knelt down, "The emperor forgives the sin! The emperor forgives the sin!"

The emperor snorted again, "Hurry up and help the national teacher up!"

Xu Boyuan's clenched hands clenched tightly. The emperor's words were obviously scolding a palace man, but in fact they were beating around the bush and scolding him for meddling in his own business.

It is true that he is nosy, but if he is left alone, Ying Zhou may have to drink a lot more tonight.

The people below did not dare to express their anger, they looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to sing about the sudden tension between the emperor and the prince.

"Father! Why don't you let my son send the national teacher back!" Xu Li got up in time, "This guy is clumsy, I'm afraid he won't be able to serve the national teacher well, so my son can rest assured."

"Alright," the emperor nodded, "you go."

Xu Li smiled, and patted Xu Boyuan's shoulder, "Cousin don't have to worry, the national teacher will take care of him alone, let's go back to the mansion with Aluan earlier."

It's fine for the emperor to send it off, but Xu Lisong is determined not to——

His thoughts about Zhou were almost written all over his face.Just as Xu Boyuan was about to speak, he saw the white tiger with golden vertical pupils glance over.

The white tiger flicked its slender tail, stepped forward and arched away the inner eunuch who was supporting Ying Zhou, and arched Ying Zhou on his back, then turned his head and growled at Xu Li who was approaching.

Xu Li was startled by him suddenly. Before he could put down his step, he saw the white tiger stomping on the ground with its thick paws.

Everyone was stunned, he carried Ying Zhou and flew straight towards Fengxian Palace.

The author has something to say: Today in the ancient city of Fenghuang, I just wrote so much, I will make up for it tomorrow
