Taizhu had already ordered the imperial dining room to prepare a family banquet, and Zhu Yiran came back a little suddenly, it was not suitable for a large-scale banquet, and Yunli also came, so he simply followed the standard of a family banquet.

As the emperor, Qi Ning walked ahead of everyone, while Jiang Li was the last one. Looking at Yunli and Zhu Yiran in front of them holding hands, she seemed to see their childhood described in the book.

Zhu Yiran and Empress Qi Ning's guard of honor was grand and mighty, this long palace road was full, Jiang Li had never felt that the palace was so lively, so she wanted to lower her head, hoping that no one would notice her today, Who knows what to be afraid of.

The ministers who were just about to leave the palace after discussing the next court saw such a scene, and turned back one after another, either to exchange pleasantries between Zhu Yiran and Yunli, or to surround Jiang Li.

Especially that Song Ze, with a melancholy look, first came over and bowed: "I have seen you."

As soon as Jiang Li saw him coming, she knew that there was nothing good to do, so she could only slightly nod to let him excuse herself. Sure enough, Song Ze started talking, like a resentful woman, still holding a white silk handkerchief in her hand.

"My lord, I don't know who that kid Song Quanshi provoked and suffered such a catastrophe. There are still people who blamed you. Let me just say, how could it be you who attacked that kind of junior? "

Song Ze's words were full of yin and yang, completely different from Jiang Li's naive look when he first met him, and the ministers who followed him didn't say a word at the moment, and they were not as stupid as they were in the court.

Jiang Li was puzzled, why?Is my power falling aside? Nothing has been settled yet, and these people have already started to make trouble.

And there is indeed a problem with Song Ze, he sent troops to protect the house, if it is an appearance, is it actually to protect the people in the house?

Jiang Li just thought about it like this, and felt terrified thinking about it. Before, she was still feeling that these ministers looked so brainless.It has even reached an unreasonable level of brainlessness, but what if these ministers are just trying to pretend to be stupid, so that they can team up secretly?

The original owner, Jiang Li, must have seen it, so she can handle all kinds of details, but after all, Jiang Li is not her, and she has always been committed to hugging the heroine's thigh and whitewashing her personality, but ignored it. So many possible knives in the dark.

If you want to make up for your mistakes step by step, you have to start not only with yourself, but also with the old and cunning officials around you.

"I am innocent and innocent, and I am not afraid of him entering the house to search, but if someone intends to frame him, then I will definitely investigate to the end. As for Song Quanshi's death, I am also saddened by it. I hope Mr. Song will express his condolences." , otherwise if you fall down, wouldn't it be that you lose your backbone all of a sudden with so many soldiers sent out to surround the house?"

Jiang Li's voice was cold when she spoke, and she stood there without going any further. She stared at Song Ze with sternness in her eyes. They will be manipulated arbitrarily, even if they have power.

As if feeling that it was not enough, he added another sentence: "Master Song, you and I are both court officials, and you should know what kind of crime it is to collude with party members. Even if he is your distant relative, he shouldn't act like this. Hurry up The family soldiers there should all be withdrawn. I am afraid that the people who should be guarded or those who should be protected are no longer needed. If the officer finds out that you have violated the rules again, I am afraid it will be inappropriate. ...Remember, this official is the current prime minister, he can be regarded as the emperor's right-hand man, anyone who slanders this official - kill without mercy."

These words, uttered from Jiang Li's mouth, did not disobey in the slightest. A flash of lightning flashed across the gloomy sky at this moment, as if to cheer Jiang Li. Song Ze had no courage to be tough with her, so he had no choice but to be obedient. Nodding yes.

The rest of the officials also seemed to see that Jiang Li was in a bad mood today, and they didn't dare to say anything. After saying a few words on the scene, they changed the topic.

Jiang Li no longer bothered to continue talking with them, so she walked all the way to the front and followed beside Qi Ning.

Naturally, Qi Ning had heard the "high-spirited talk", so he was not surprised at Jiang Li's approach.

Instead, she was still teasing her: "Ai Qing usually gets along very well with those ministers, why is there a faint quarrel today?"

Jiang Li was in a bad mood at first, and lowered her head depressedly. Hearing Qi Ning's joke, she was even more unhappy: "Does your majesty hope that all his subordinates will collude with each other?"

After listening to these words, Yunli was frightened for a while. Sure enough, Jiang Li was the only one who dared to talk to the imperial power like this. Qi Ning was not angry, nor did he continue to tease Jiang Li, but calmly asked Tai Zhu to summon Song Ze. .

Song Ze didn't leave at first, but came here soon, because Jiang Li had just taught him a lesson, and now all his claws and claws have been restrained, and his eyebrows are pleasing to the eye, like an old dog that has lost its teeth.

"Song Aiqing, what Jiang Aiqing said just now is reasonable. Not only should she not collude with each other, she should also consider her own status and status in her actions. Don't think that you are a local snake, what do you think?"

Qi Ning's act of acting stupid this time not only slapped Song Ze's arrogance, but also made people see no mistakes. After all, in the eyes of everyone, how tactful can the stupid Empress speak?

Jiang Li stood aside, almost stopped laughing, feeling secretly refreshed.

Song Ze's face was very ugly, but he could only say yes obediently.

The family banquet was held in the Flower Appreciation Pavilion in the Imperial Garden. The location of this pavilion is very good. Not only is it surrounded by the lake, but you can also see the flowers blooming on the other side of the lake. I can't resist the bright and beautiful figures of those flowers. If it rains at the banquet, it will not hinder the viewing of the rain scene.

Because it was a family banquet and there were no "outsiders", Jiang Li changed into a beautiful but not very formal dress before entering the table. She didn't want to be troublesome at first, but Zhu Yiran's tribute dress just fit Jiang Li's figure.

As soon as Qi Ning became interested, he decided to let her replace it. How dare Jiang Li refuse to do so, the feeling of having his head pinned to his waist is too uncomfortable, and he has to worry about his own life from time to time.

Originally brought from the border area, it has the national characteristics of the border.

The bright red long dress has an exotic style, and it can set off the complexion beautifully. However, Jiang Li has never worn such a bright color in her two lifetimes. When she first changed it, she was a little uncomfortable. The clothes have been designed very conservatively. It's not exposed, but the sleeves on the arms are made of red gauze, and you can see the faint arms under the sleeves.

Qi Ning has never seen Jiang Li wearing this kind of clothes. When he saw her this time, he was stunned under the eyes of everyone. The red dress made Jiang Li's skin look whiter and brighter. There is no extra embroidery, and some are full of floral pleats with a sense of design, which does not look tacky at all.

Jiang Li didn't wear a lot of jewelry, but was simple and attractive. As soon as she sat down, she attracted many people's attention, but Zhu Yiran didn't care at all. Her eyes were always focused on Yunli. If she looked at Yunli from time to time, He also bows his head shyly.

Although the painting style is very inconsistent, it does not prevent the two of them from "spreading dog food" during the banquet. When Jiang Li first saw their pair, there was still a hint of cheerfulness secretly smacking CP, but now all she has to do is roll her eyes .

Fortunately, because of Jiang Li's status, no one else dared to look at Jiang Li all the time, only Qi Ning even forgot to take the cup when Zhu Yiran toasted her.

It wasn't until Jiang Li also looked at her that Qi Ning returned to normal, his voice was cold and unnatural: "This time, Zhu Yiran, General Zhu came all the way from the border, and I will accept this kindness."

So he picked up the wine glass and paid respects from a distance, Zhu Yiran immediately stood up, drank the full glass of wine, and truly accepted the heart.

Zhu Yiran said a few more words, congratulating the new emperor on his enthronement, and continued to sit down and look at his goddess.

Yunli's health is still not good, even if Zhu Yiran is here, she is very happy, but there is still a melancholy in her eyes that can't be concealed.

But after eating a few mouthfuls of food, he had to cover his cough with a handkerchief, and every time he put down the handkerchief, he looked haggard.

Zhu Yiran was so distressed, but there was nothing she could do, so she had to keep asking the maid beside Yunli to pour more tea for her.

Jiang Li was happy and leisurely alone, and there were no other outsiders around, so she held her chopsticks in an elegant gesture, but kept her head buried in eating, never raising her head to toast to anyone.

Qi Ning's gaze always stayed on the red dress, and he couldn't see any emotion under his eyes, as if he was looking at a bewitching flower.

Jiang Li originally had that kind of iceberg-like temperament and appearance, but at this moment she was replaced with a red dress that was quite different from her temperament. There was no sense of disobedience, but a new collision.

Those three thousand black hairs were scattered obediently, without any mess, as if she was still an inviolable goddess, the silver chopsticks in her hands were turned over, revealing her beautiful wrists, with a seductive arc.

The collar of the red dress was slightly lower, and Jiang Li's collarbone was also visible. The delicate skin and that alluring collarbone stimulated Qi Ning at the same time, and she only felt that her mouth and tongue were dry.

Although the eyes and expression can't tell Qi Ning's mood at the moment, but he didn't move his chopsticks for a long time, but Tai Zhu noticed the clue.

"Your Majesty... Prime Minister Jiang's subordinates went to Shengzhou a few days ago and lived under the official's residence there for a long time. I don't know what you think of it." Taizhu prepared vegetables for Qi Ning while Reminding softly, she was afraid that Qi Ning would feel pity for Jiang Li, and she was even more afraid that Qi Ning would have feelings for Jiang Li that should not exist.
