White Hedge Dream

Chapter 226 Banquet ends

"Prince Zhou, why are you here? What happened to King Chu?"

"I just saw His Royal Highness King Chu in the palace. He drank too much and was making noises about going to the Taiye Pool. I saw that his chamberlain and maids could not help him, so I helped him."

Zhou Jingyun said, looking at the servants and guests surrounding him.

"I was originally afraid that he would jump into the water, but I didn't expect His Highness to just look at the water and sit quietly by the pool, and then he lay down and fell asleep."

As he spoke, he looked down at Li Yu lying next to him and smiled slightly.

"Slept very soundly."

The people around were once again stunned.

Zhou Jingyun raised his head to look at them, as if he had just noticed everyone, and asked: "What's wrong? Is the banquet over?"

These words made the stunned people instantly lively.

"Something happened just now!"

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu is here. Just now the princess thought that he...ahem, was in trouble."

When he heard this, Zhang Ze, who was standing outside the crowd, withdrew his gaze and turned around and walked away.

"Zhongcheng, why don't you take them away and ask?" the guard followed and asked in a low voice.

Zhang Ze sneered: "What are you asking? Everyone saw them here, and they also saw before that there was no Li Yu in Nuan Pavilion."

Also, they were not caught at the scene, and they couldn't find out anything when asked afterwards. The imperial guard frowned and said, "It's not easy to interrogate the people on Princess Jinyu's side..."

Since Miss Zhu was deliberately plotted by Princess Jinyu, she would definitely not let anyone interrogate her.

They can't interrogate Miss Zhu and Mrs. Zhu either.

When he said this, a servant came over and whispered a few words to Zhang Ze.

Zhang Ze looked grave and nodded: "I know what's going on."

The chamberlain was a little surprised. He just relayed what Mrs. Zhu had just said about meeting Queen Yang. He felt confused and didn't know whether it was true or not, but Zhang Ze said he knew what was going on.

What's going on? What the hell?

But Zhang Ze said no more.

"Tell me, don't do or say anything." He only said.

The chamberlain responded and asked: "Zhongcheng, why don't you go and have a look? Your Majesty has sent everyone away."

Is the banquet over now? Yes, the dead queen is here, so how can the emperor still be in the mood to have fun?

"Go to the palace gate." Zhang Ze said, "Get the list of guests attending the banquet."

…

…

In his dim vision, people were coming and going in Linde Palace, but there were no gorgeous guests, and there was no sound of drums. There were only shirtless craftsmen and the clanging sounds of the palace being repaired.

"It was I who suggested that your Majesty renovate the Linde Hall."

"They all scolded me for wasting money and people."

"But it's pretty, isn't it?"

Hearing the question, Bai Li retracted his gaze and looked aside.

The man was not standing close to her shoulders like before, but was swinging on a swing, his red dress fluttering.

"It looks good." Bai Li said.

The man on the swing laughed: "I thought you were going to say it was just wood and stone, they are all the same."

Bai Li also smiled: "Everything is different, how can it be the same." He looked at Linde Hall again.

Before following Li Yu into the imperial city, she had thought that with Bai Ying's caution, the imperial bell would definitely be hung in the Linde Hall, so why not alarm the imperial bell?

Then find a Linde Hall without an imperial bell.

So the moment Li Yu drank the wine and was helped up by the chambermaid, she called out Jiang Mian'er.

She took these people into Jiang Mian'er's dream and returned to the Linde Hall decades ago.

True, false, and false are shuttled back and forth to weave a big dream.

Dreams must be awakened. When you wake up, some people's dreams will become empty.

The person on the swing swung over, her red skirt brushing against the clouds and gauze: "Little girl, you have done so much harm to your sister. She will never be a queen in this life."

Bai Li looked at her and smiled: "Why did I cause this? It should be the emperor."

The people on the swing laughed loudly: "That's right." She wanted to say something, but she suddenly swung higher and said, "My old Linde Hall is going to fall apart."

The person on the swing swung over and collided with her.

With the collision, the light and shadow shattered.

Bai Li suddenly opened his eyes. The Linde Hall where no imperial bells were hung in the past disappeared, and the real Linde Hall appeared in front of him. In addition, there were maids running around inside.

The maids wore double buns and pink skirts, white makeup and thin eyebrows, and looked uneasy. "Sister, where is Princess Jinyu?" Bai Li stood up straight from the pillar and asked.

The palace maid passing by was startled and let out a short scream. When she saw clearly, she was also a palace maid...

"It scared me to death. I thought I had seen a ghost." The palace maid muttered, then looked at Bai Li with a strange look, "You..."

"I'm from Prince Chu's Mansion." Bai Li said hurriedly.

"Prince Chu's Mansion, come over quickly." The palace maid said, pointing in a direction and reminding in a low voice, "The princess is very angry."

Bai Li thanked him and joined the crowd leaving the palace.

…

…

Zhang Ze stood at the gate of the palace. The night was slowly opening. The palace lanterns and torches were lit in advance, as bright as day, illuminating everyone who passed by the palace gate.

People had different expressions, some were uneasy, some were excited, some were dull, and every face was stopped by the guards to check and check.

This caused another murmur.

"What is this checking for? Is it looking for ghosts?"

"Is it really haunted?"

Zhang Ze didn't care or pay attention to these words. He listened to the guards reading people's names and quietly looked at the faces of the people passing by.

The guests coming to the banquet are actually very simple. Parents and children, only four or five people at most, without maids and servants, until Princess Jinyu and her party arrive.

Princess Jinyu's face was grave, and the palace maids and chamberlains beside her lowered their heads and trembled.

There were four other chamberlains carrying the shoulder carriage, and Li Yu was still sleeping on it.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, are you okay?"

A palace maid hurriedly followed beside her, holding her handbag and asking in a low voice, with a concerned look on her face.

Zhang Ze's eyes crossed her, and the next moment someone stood up to block his sight.

Zhang Ze's eyes narrowed.

Zhou Jingyun.

"Is your Highness okay?" Zhou Jingyun asked, looking at Li Yu on the carriage and then at the palace maid next to him with a concerned expression.

The palace maid's voice was timid: "I don't know, I haven't woken up yet."

Zhou Jingyun looked at Princess Jinyu in front of him: "Princess, please ask an imperial doctor to take a look."

Princess Jinyu turned back from her carriage, raised her eyebrows and scolded: "I drank too much, it's already embarrassing enough!" After saying that, she looked at Zhou Jingyun, "Prince Zhou, when did you care so much about us, Li Yu? I thought you were You don’t bother to interact with us royals, otherwise you will reject my invitations time and time again.”

Zhou Jingyun said: "The princess misunderstood, it was just an unlucky coincidence."

Princess Jinyu sneered: "Okay, I will invite the crown prince to visit you when I choose a good time, but let's forget it today." After saying that, she scolded the palace maid, "Why are you still lingering? Hurry back to your palace!"

The chamberlains who were carrying the carriage quickened their pace, and the palace maids did not dare to say any more, and followed quickly with their heads lowered.

Princess Jinyu's servants also hurriedly scolded and asked others to give way. Princess Jinyu sat on her with a sullen face and did not stop the servants. When she saw Zhang Ze standing in front of the city gate, she sneered again: "Zhang Ze, guard the palace. Why are you searching? This huge imperial city is haunted by ghosts and ghosts in broad daylight. Why don't you go find out who is causing the trouble?"

Zhang Ze leaned over and saluted: "I must do my best."

Princess Jinyu ignored him and the group quickly walked out of the imperial city with a sullen face.

Zhang Ze stood up and looked at their backs, then turned his head and saw Zhou Jingyun approaching.

"Your Majesty." Zhang Ze smiled, "I have helped His Royal Highness the King of Chu a lot this time."

Zhou Jingyun said: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu is not in trouble, so how can we help him?" He approached him and whispered, "Something happened at the banquet. Zhongcheng, go and see if the White Lady needs help."

Zhang Ze looked at him and suddenly whispered: "Have you seen her?"

Zhou Jingyun was slightly stunned, what do you mean?

"Who?" he asked directly.

Zhang Ze looked at him and said nothing. He just waved his hand to indicate that he could leave.

The carriage from Prince Chu's Mansion was approaching. Princess Jinyu had already got into the carriage and left first. The servants were busy carrying Li Yu into the carriage.

Bai Li stood by the car and turned around. Night had already enveloped the earth, the imperial city was brightly lit, and countless people were pouring in. It was difficult to see where Zhou Jingyun was.

"Your Highness, lie down," the chamberlains said.

Bai Li nodded to them and got into the car. The curtains were lowered and the carriage swayed forward.

"Ah Li." Li Yu's voice murmured.

Bai Li looked at him. The young man was lying in the carriage, his eyes still closed, his expression a little flustered, and his hands raised in front of him.

Bai Li held his hand and whispered, "I'm here."

The tense hands softened, Li Yu murmured something, his eyebrows softened, a smile appeared on his lips, and he fell into deep sleep again.

I had a check-up and received general anesthesia, so there will be no update tomorrow~
