The oblique Fang Palace in the evening view, the gorgeous palace in the year.

This is probably the most glorious place on New Year's Eve in the entire imperial city.Ming Xuanjin set up a so-called family banquet, and only invited some close relatives of the emperor, important officials in the court, and a few concubines who were popular and favored.

Naturally, Ming Xuanyu was also among them.Surprisingly, Ming Xuanjin personally called the roll and invited Jing Zhu to accompany him.

Monk Zhang Er really couldn't figure it out.From the day he heard the news, Jing Zhu's brows and eyes were almost twisted into a ball, and he asked "why" from morning to night, even at night when he went to bed, he would lie on Ming Xuanyu's pillow and ask it at least eight or nine times.

"Your emperor brother doesn't know me. Why did he ask me? I won't go, I won't go! Ah, I'm sick, my lord, your quilt is poisonous, and the pillow is also poisonous. Hurry up and hug me, I can't do it anymore help me……"

Jing Zhu rolls and rolls on the bed casually, playing tricks.

In the past, when sleeping alone, the extraordinarily quiet feeling would always give Ming Xuanyu a moment of peaceful rest.But now, Jing Zhu either doesn't let him have a good rest, or... doesn't let him have a good rest.

Patience has a limit.Ming Xuanyu frowned, and kicked Jing Zhu's ass, unexpectedly, this guy shrank into a ball, covering half of his face with a quilt, leaving a pair of watery and aggrieved eyes, staring straight at the ground. Staring at Ming Xuanyu, he looked like an aggrieved puppy.If you give him a tail, he will be able to wag very fast.

"Woooooo, you kick me, you don't love me anymore."

Jing Zhu pulled down the quilt a little, revealing his pouty mouth.

Who was it that went from bed to table last night, changing places and tricks all night?Wasn't the man who was strong and irreversible back then the pitiful man?Ming Xuanyu rested his forehead and sighed, unexpectedly he had no temper for this contrasting coquetry.

Reversedly riding up, Ming Xuanyu pressed on Jing Zhu's body, clasping his wrists with both hands, forcing him to put on a gesture of surrender.

"Since there is poison everywhere in Prince Xiang's Mansion, making you unable to move, is it possible that I am also poisoned?"

Ming Xuanyu looked down at the person below him expressionlessly, his loose black hair slipped from his shoulders, bringing the scent of sandalwood.

"It's poisonous. Lord Xiang let me fall for it. It's love poison. If I don't spend my whole life with me, I won't be able to recover."

Jing Zhu smiled mischievously, turned his head and stuck out the tip of his tongue, and licked lightly on the white wrist that was pressing down on him.

Although it was a bit noisy, Ming Xuanyu was obviously in a much better mood these days, and everyone in the palace could see it. Yi An thought it was because General Du was sent to guard the war in the northwest, so he was not in the palace, so that the prince was rarely at ease. up.

But the good mood didn't last for a few days, and what should be faced still had to be faced.Therefore, Ming Xuanyu settled down the whole palace, and after explaining clearly to Yi An, he dressed up for Jing Zhu before setting out to enter the palace.

I have never seen a cheap daddy so graceful and luxurious, but now I see him as a man of extraordinary appearance and a dignified appearance, I never thought he was a beggar picking up rags before.Maizi was very surprised and walked around Jingzhu several times.However, the demeanor exuded from the bottom of the bones of Cheap Daddy really does not look like an ordinary beggar.

"Father, did you become my fairy father's concubine? I heard that if you suddenly become very rich, most likely you will be a concubine for a rich family... Ouch! Don't let me hurt you! Ouch... "

Whispering and howling, Maizi clutched his butt that had just been spanked, his mouth so pouted that he could hang a bottle of oil on it.

"I'm going out with your fairy father. You stay here and don't cause trouble for me. Otherwise, I will arrest you and give you to others as a concubine."

Jing Zhu rolled up his sleeves with a smile, scaring Maizi.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! I, I, I... I'm going out to play with Douzi, so I'm leaving! See you in Jianghu!"

After Maizi finished speaking, he ran away.

Speaking of entering the palace, this was the first time for Jingzhu. Along the way, like a pestering bee, it kept buzzing beside Ming Xuanyu's flower, asking a lot of things to pay attention to.It wasn't until entering the palace gate that he shut his mouth obediently, and began to put on a happy mask, smirking embarrassingly.

The lights are bright, the bead curtains are winding, the actors and dancers in the main hall are babbling, and the willow branches are waisted.The night in the palace was really lively.

The two sat on both sides of the main hall, and because of Ming Xuanyu's status, they sat closer to the emperor on the dragon chair in the middle.Surrounded by all kinds of dignified dignitaries, there are also officials and some family members wearing court uniforms. Presumably they must be high-ranking dignitaries.

Jing Zhu scratched his head, what kind of status would he be if he brought his family?

Ming Xuanjin held such a big banquet on the day before New Year's Eve, entertaining many relatives of the emperor and important officials in the court.This scene made Jing Zhu nervous.Ming Xuanyu on the side was calm and composed, still holding his expressionless iceberg face.

Looking at this face now, Jing Zhu always felt that he couldn't move his eyes away.Don't look at Lord Xiang sitting here in danger today, his every move is as elegant as a fairy in a painting.But last night, I don't know who was pressed under him, clutching the bed sheet, with flushed cheeks and obscene words.

And this scene, naturally only Jing Zhu who is beside him knows.

Thinking of this, Jing Zhu's fingers were originally resting on the side of the wine cup on the table, but after looking around, he found that no one was paying attention to this side, he smiled, and walked quietly with two fingers to his side.Secretly and lightly, he scratched the back of Ming Xuanyu's hand.

However, this move was quickly stopped.Ming Xuanyu frowned, didn't look at the side, and slapped the dishonest finger off with his backhand.

Suddenly feeling a little wronged, Jing Zhu snorted softly and pursed his lips, no less than Maizi's small mouth that could hold oil bottles that he mocked today.

This grievance lasted for a long time, because Ming Xuanyu was extremely serious and meticulous in this environment.Jing Zhu felt bored, and began to play with the orange leaves in the fruit bowl in a melancholy manner, as if all the fair and fair ladies dancing in front of her were inferior to these few leaves.

On the dragon platform in the middle, Mingxuan Jin's long face was joyful, with his arms around Concubine Yu's shoulders, watching Meiji dancing under the stage and laughing.Concubine Yu snuggled into his arms shyly, with a proud and pampered look.Even Jing Zhu could tell that the queen on the side had maintained a dignified aura, but her face was as green as a vegetable leaf.

When the emperor was happy, he thought about the whole thing.At first, it was the concubines performing arts, doing everything, grinding and writing poems to celebrate the new year, and dancing with butterflies to wish the prosperity of the world.Concubine Yu was also holding a gold-painted fir-wood qin, and she played a piece flutteringly on her skirts. Ming Xuanjin clapped her hands happily.Jing Zhu didn't know any of them, so he took a casual glance and then continued to peek at the beautiful prince next to him.

Then, the female family members of the civil and military officials present performed.It was only then that Jing Zhu realized in a daze that this banquet had ulterior motives, and it was far more than a simple "family banquet" as Ming Xuanjin said.

Because Ming Xuanjin was so happy that he married several official women who came to perform to the royal family present on the spot.No wonder the female family members of those people wearing official uniforms are all dressed up and competing for beauty.

Jing Zhu took a sip of the fine nectar in the wine cup, feeling that it was tasteless and boring.The tribute wine in this palace is far inferior to Zui Chunzhi in Zuixian Pavilion.

What brought Jing Zhu back to his thoughts was hearing Ming Xuanyu's name from the emperor's mouth.

"Xuan Yu, how are you doing recently? I heard that you have been sick recently, but something happened?"

Ming Xuanjin looked over, looking worried.

"Brother Lao's note. Go out with friends and appreciate the folk customs. It's just a tiring journey. After a few days of recuperation, I'm fine."

Ming Xuanyu respectfully returned the salute and said lightly.

"Xuan Yu has always been carefree, and your friends must be like this."

Ming Xuanjin stretched his brows, and raised the corners of his lips.

Suddenly being chanted by the emperor, Jing Zhu stopped playing with the orange leaves in an instant, recalling the etiquette before entering the palace in his mind, and responded seriously and politely to Ming Xuanjin's gaze.After all, in this place, King Xiang's brand is everywhere on his body, so he can't lose his talent no matter what.

Obviously, Ming Xuanjin didn't want to ask more questions, and changed the subject after a few pleasantries, and continued to admire the official girls competing to perform. Jing Zhu was relieved.

As if seeking comfort, Jing Zhu secretly moved his hand under the table, while no one was paying attention, he quietly grabbed Ming Xuanyu's hand, and skillfully flicked his cuff to cover the interlocking fingers of the two. .This time, Ming Xuanyu did not evade, but raised his eyebrows lightly, and remained silent.

But not long after, Jing Zhu's heart rose again.Ming Xuanjin's sonorous and forceful voice came again, with a teasing tone.

"Xuan Yu, Prime Minister Zuo hasn't visited Prince Xiang's Mansion for a long time, right? I think Su Ho is a little depressed."

Ming Xuanyu smiled, raised his finger and pointed to the side of the female relatives.

That side happened to be opposite Jing Zhu and the others.Three or five women heard this, and quietly laughed around a woman in pink clothes in the middle, that woman was Su He mentioned by Ming Xuanjin just now, the second lady of Zuo Xiang's family.

Soho, who was dressed in pink, really looked like a pink and white lotus in the crowd.She has a pretty face, a graceful figure, and a bit of childishness on her face.It was only then that Jing Zhu noticed that among the women who performed the dance just now, this Su Ho was the one who stood in the middle and stood out the most.

At this time, Su Ho, who was suddenly named by the emperor, was blushing and covering his face with his sleeves, glanced shyly at Ming Xuanyu who was opposite, and quickly reproached the joking female companion around him with feigned anger.
