Half a month passed in a hurry, and it was Laba day.
According to the palace rules, the emperor and the queen were going to have a banquet with all the ministers.
All officials of third rank and above and their female relatives were required to enter the palace to receive the banquet.
When Li Weiyang entered the hall, Empress Pei was already surrounded by the prince's concubines.
Empress Pei rarely showed a smile, and she looked happy.
Wang Zijin came over.
She was wearing a light blue silk double-cupped dress, which made her even more charming and unforgettable.
She stood side by side with Li Weiyang, smiled slightly and said: "Jia'er, what are you looking at?"
Li Weiyang glanced lightly at the top of the main hall.
Wang Zijin glanced at it and saw the Crown Princess, Concubine Lu and others surrounding Empress Pei not knowing what they were talking about.
Wang Zijin naturally understood what Li Weiyang meant, and she said calmly: "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has recently doted on a beauty outside the palace, and even refused to return to the Prince's Mansion for a long time because of her.
This matter is already known to everyone, and the Crown Princess and the others naturally suppress it.
I can’t help it.
However, the prince can’t even care about the dignity of the royal family, and he doesn’t care about these noble wives and concubines at all, which shows that this woman must have the beauty to conquer the country. " Li Weiyang smiled.
Leng Lian was indeed as beautiful as a fairy, but that was not what really fascinated the prince.
There was always a thorn in the prince's heart, that is, Queen Pei had always been lukewarm towards him, not like a loving mother at all.
This was certainly due to Queen Pei's nature, but on the other hand, the prince's inferiority complex was also very strong.
Leng Lian is knowledgeable, gentle and tactful, and she understands the prince's mood very well.
Of course, she will be understanding and tender in every possible way, like a flower of understanding, she will make the prince obedient.
In addition, the prince still has some Oedipus complex and a hint of provocation to Queen Pei's majesty, so the thoughts behind Leng Lian's current status are not uncomplicated.
It would be difficult for anyone to believe it easily.
Li Weiyang didn't explain much, she just smiled and said: "To be able to win the love of the prince, this woman is naturally a stunning beauty."
When Wang Zijin saw that she was unwilling to say anything, he didn't force her.
He looked directly at the bustle over there and said, "Those women can't sit still now.
Not only them, I'm afraid even Queen Pei can't sit still."
If not, he had always been right to her.
How could Queen Pei, who didn't care about the Crown Princess and his concubines, suddenly be so amiable?
Sure enough, I heard Empress Pei looking at Concubine Zhang and saying with a smile: "Your child is already more than four months old, right?"
Concubine Zhang was flattered and said quickly: "Yes, Queen Mother."
When the other concubines saw that Queen Pei was rarely nice to someone, they couldn't help but feel envious and jealous, and their eyes almost burst into flames.
The Crown Princess suppressed her jealousy and smiled and said: "Exactly, my wife has always told her to be careful and take good care of the pregnancy so that the Prince can have another son as soon as possible."
When she said this, Concubine Lu next to her couldn't help but get angry.
I just gave birth to a son , now this Concubine Zhang is coming to compete with her for favor.
She is really angry, but she does not show it on her face.
She just smiles lightly and says: "What the Crown Princess is saying is that I have seen that you take great care of Concubine Zhang." , even the prince ignored it."
The Crown Princess was choked by her and couldn't help but feel embarrassed and angry, her face turned red.
However, the other concubines present lowered their heads and couldn't help laughing.
The Crown Princess has a fierce and jealous temperament, and her last incident over Leng Lian was well known to everyone.
The prince now refused to enter her room at all.
He rarely went back to the prince's house.
At most, he could only take a look at the son born by the pregnant Zhang Concubine and Lu Concubine.
Others stretched their necks to see it.
Not even close to the prince.
The Crown Princess pretended to be ill several times, but unfortunately she could not win back her husband's heart.
Now Concubine Lu was making cold remarks, clearly talking about the Crown Princess falling out of favor.

How could she be willing to accept it?
Empress Pei looked on with cold eyes, seeing that he was just being nice to them, and these people turned on their noses and faced each other, making the situation tense and ugly, and they couldn't help but sneered.
If it weren't for the sake of appeasing people and creating a false impression of harmony, why would she be here with them?
These women are more stupid than the others.
She doesn't take them seriously at all.
Fortunately, her background is still useful.
She remained calm on her face, just smiled slightly and said: "As the saying goes, you should marry a virtuous wife.
To be a virtuous wife, don't meddle with things that shouldn't be done.
What's more important is to know your own propriety and know how to be polite and respectful.
Moderate and moderate.
I know there are some bad rumors everywhere recently, and I won’t go into details here.
I’m just telling you that since you are marrying into the royal family, you should know the rules and take good care of your husband. , don’t worry about other things.
No matter what the prince does, you must do your part, know how to be his eyes and ears, and don’t just think about being jealous or fighting with each other.
However, if the prince has done something negligent.
You can't just let things go, you still need to persuade them.
Now that the prince is so ridiculous, and you guys are letting it go, aren't you trying to make people laugh?"
The Crown Princess was speechless for a moment, and her eyes were red without caring about the public gaze: "Mother, how come your daughter-in-law doesn't know this?
I always do this, but I am always stupid and don't please the Crown Prince.
I made him angry for a while, so I made a fuss.
What happened last time is that now that he doesn’t want to come back, it’s all my fault, which has caused all the sisters to be looked down upon.”
Concubine Lu thought for a moment and realized that this was wrong.
She quickly said, "You can't blame the Crown Princess for this.
We don't have the ability to control the Crown Prince's heart."
Empress Pei looked at their faces with different expressions and said with a smile: "Those wild flowers and weeds outside are just a temporary fling, and they won't be on the stage anyway.
With me here, are you still afraid that the position of the talented concubine will not be guaranteed?
The same goes for you, help the prince and don't let him do anything stupid again. " Several concubines looked at each other, but they all responded in unison: "Yes, Queen Mother."
They were talking in a low voice, and others couldn't hear clearly.
They could only see the scene was full of laughter and laughter, and they couldn't help but feel strange in their hearts.
Some people have long been talking privately: "Didn't you say that His Highness the Crown Prince is not Empress Pei's biological son?
Seeing that Empress is so kind and cheerful, it doesn't seem like it."
Immediately someone said: "How did you know that the empress is never willing to talk and laugh with others easily?
How can these princes and concubines see her?
But now she suddenly behaves so kindly and kindly, which shows that she just wants to show it to others."
People were whispering, some believed it, others suspected it.
The prince more or less kept these voices in his ears, and his expression couldn't help but become more annoyed.
At this moment, he already believed that Queen Pei was not his biological mother at all.
Not only that, she was also afraid of herself and guarded against herself.
She would rather use a favorite to suppress her everywhere.
How could she not make him hold a grudge?
While the prince was thinking wildly, hundreds of operas were already being performed in the wide square in front.
This was the first time for Princess Ali to see Baixi Opera.
She couldn't help but stare at it.
More than a dozen large drums were carried out.
The drums were beating loudly.
Dozens of big men were wearing bright red sweat towels around their waists.

Dancing all the way, the atmosphere was extremely lively.
Professional animal trainers led two ferocious tigers from both sides of the square into the venue, and let them jump through fire hoops to perform acrobatics for everyone before exiting.
After a while, several artists performed climbing poles and somersaults, all with superb skills and powerful tricks.
Princess Ali was watching mesmerized when she suddenly heard a "boom" and fireworks suddenly burst into flames in the corner of the square.
He couldn't help but be startled and quickly grabbed Li Weiyang's arm.
Li Weiyang smiled softly, patted her hand and said: "It's okay, it's just a performance."
Sure enough, he saw rows of women in blue walking out from the right side of the square, holding a torch high. , spitting flames from their mouths in an instant, the torch suddenly burned brightly, and they danced while performing.
Princess Ali saw that this group of people actually breathed out fire and kept performing all kinds of weird performances.
It was so interesting that she couldn't help but feel so happy that she completely forgot about her fear just now.
Next, there were all kinds of circus shows , flying scenes, mask dances, etc., the scene was very lively.
Not to mention that Princess Ali was fascinated, even the other ministers couldn't help but let go of their usual reserve and laugh heartily.
After three rounds of drinking, the emperor finally appeared.
When everyone saw His Majesty coming, they stood up quickly and shouted long live.
Li Weiyang saw from a distance that although the emperor's figure was not strange, he was faintly green at the moment, and the red mark between his eyebrows was deeper.
This shows that the emperor's headache has not been completely cured, but if he does not attend such a banquet today, it will give everyone the impression that his condition has worsened, which is difficult to do.
Li Weiyang was lost in thought when Princess Ali smiled and said: "Jia'er, the emperor is late today."
Li Weiyang was startled, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty can come whenever he wants.
We only have to welcome him, how can we blame him?"
Princess Ali stuck out her tongue, but she didn't take it seriously.
In her opinion, so many people were waiting for the emperor alone, and he was too domineering.
I only heard the emperor laughing loudly and saying: "Okay, everyone, please get back on your feet."
Only then did everyone stand up and return to their seats.
Only when the eunuch ordered them to sit down did they dare to sit down.
The emperor sat next to Empress Pei, looked at her with a half-smile, and said, "Today's Laba Banquet was really hard on you."
Empress Pei smiled, her smile was dignified and graceful, but her voice was calm: "Whatever your majesty said, all these are the duties that I should do, not to mention Concubine Guo Hui and Concubine Chen to help me, so I will not be tired no matter what."
Where are you going?
But His Majesty came out to have some fun just after he recovered.
I am really worried."
Hearing what Empress Pei said, the emperor's smile faded slightly and he snorted coldly: "I'm fine.
I'm in very good health.
I don't need to worry about the queen."
The corner of Pei Hou's lips curved slightly, obviously not taking the other person's words into consideration.
She was the person who knew the emperor's condition best, and she also knew that he was not as relaxed as she said.
The emperor had a smile on his face, but he clenched his fists tightly under his sleeves.
The veins on the back of his hands popped out and his back was straight, which showed that he still had a severe headache.
Seeing everything in her eyes, Concubine Guo Hui couldn't help but feel anxious.
If there is anyone among the concubines who truly cares about the emperor's health, she is the one.
Although she doesn't have much love for the emperor, they have been married for many years.
After all, he is Yuan Ying's father.
No matter what, she does not want to see any harm to him.
Moreover, if the emperor falls, it will only win the heart of Empress Pei, which will be extremely harmful to them. big.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but said softly: "Your Majesty, the banquet is the same every year, nothing special.
There will be an early morning court tomorrow.
You must have accumulated a lot of troubles after being sick for so long.
If you are anxious, you may as well go back and review it first."

It was clearly a substitute.
The emperor came to the rescue.
When Empress Pei heard this, she glanced at her coldly and said, "Your Majesty naturally has plenty of time to deal with government affairs.
Why bother, Concubine Hui, for talking too much?"
Concubine Guo Hui had a look on her face that was about to speak, but she immediately stopped talking.
The emperor also knew that Concubine Hui was thinking about him, otherwise he would not be in a hurry if he was busy with government affairs.
But if he leaves now, it will only make people doubt his physical condition, which may very well endanger the stability of the government.
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly and said: "Concubine Hui, don't worry, my body has recovered.
At worst, it will be the same after attending the banquet and reviewing again when I go back.
I just have to trouble my concubine to bring some snacks to me personally."
Concubine Guo Hui lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Concubine Chen watched with cold eyes and saw the fierce fighting here.
She just shook her head gently.
Now the Crown Prince and Prince Jing are fighting to the death in the former court, while Queen Pei and Concubine Guo Hui each occupy half of the harem.
Empress Pei's methods and scheming are far superior to those of Guo.
If it weren't for the help of the Duke of Qi, Concubine Guo Hui would never be able to survive now.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Concubine Zhou Shu next to her.
She saw Concubine Zhou looking calmly at the performance in front of her, unmoved at all, as if she was not aware of the movement here.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Concubine Zhou Shu was also a powerful master this time.
The fight was in full swing here, but she was sitting there calmly, as if there was no one around.
This kind of concentration was not something ordinary people could have.
At this banquet, Wang Zijin took the initiative to change seats with the people around her, and sat right next to Li Weiyang.
This showed that she had clearly stood on the side of the Duke of Qi.
Everyone who saw this change was very happy. surprised.
You must know that these two people are love rivals.
Now seeing them sitting together talking and laughing, the situation is as weird as it can be.
Wang Zijin asked Li Weiyang in a low voice: "After the medicine powder was prepared, you still haven't told me what you want to do."
Li Weiyang smiled faintly: "Didn't I say that Ying Chu wanted to present a Thousand-Armed Guanyin to Queen Pei?
Beforehand, he had asked people everywhere to collect portraits so that they could be handed over to the sculptor for carving.
But it is said that he searched for a long time but could not find the right one.
Heartfelt , either his face is too stern or a little too frivolous and not dignified enough.
Fifth brother is a master of painting, and his painting style is unique and rarely seen.
The image of Guanyin he painted must be excellent, so this painting has been sent to Yingchu.
In hand."
Wang Zijin's heart skipped a beat.
She had also seen Director Guo's painting in person.
But she didn't think that the other party would carve that painting into the Thousand-Armed Guanyin.
How big a risk would that be?
Thinking of this, she immediately said: "Jia'er, I'm afraid your wishful thinking will come to nothing.
I don't think Ying Chu will do this." of."
Prince Jin thought that Li Weiyang had tampered with the painting, so he drove Ying Chu to carve the portrait into a Guanyin and present it to Empress Pei.
However, she guessed wrong.
Li Weiyang smiled softly: "Of course he won't really carve the portrait, but he may not keep it."
Wang Zijin couldn't help but be very surprised: "I don't understand what you mean at all.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Since you know that the other party will not carve it according to the portrait, why do you still find ways to get it to him."
Li Weiyang's tone was very calm, and he slowly said: "Ying Chu is an extremely smart person, and he is also very cunning.
There are few men as cruel and ruthless as him.
It's a pity."
Wang Zijin quickly asked: "What's the pity?"
Li Weiyang sighed softly: "It's a pity that he is a human being after all.
He is a human being who has love, hate, anger, ignorance, and seven emotions and six desires.
He loves Queen Pei deeply, so Queen Pei is the fatal point.
Once he embarks on this bumpy love road, he will There's no turning back.
A person with no flaws will eventually have shortcomings.
Isn't it a pity that this gives us an opportunity to take advantage of?
It's not difficult to kill him if we make good use of it."
Wang Zijin looked at the other party in surprise, a thought in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he felt that his heart that had been tight just now suddenly relaxed.
Although she didn't understand Li Weiyang's thoughts at this time, the other party's expression and tone were so determined and confident, which also gave her reassurance.
Ying Chu had already stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, empress, I have a gift to give you."
Everyone knew that Ying Chu was going to give him a gift, because Empress Pei wanted to take this opportunity to promote him, so even the gift was decided early in the morning.
Whether it was a Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara, or a famous jade carver should be asked to carve it in person. of.
But it is said that it took a lot of effort to find the prototype.
When Ying Chu took out the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara, everyone's eyes couldn't help but stare.
The Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara that Ying Chu ordered people to carry up was one foot high, and it was as white as gel.
Except for the two clasped hands on the Bodhisattva's chest, there were twenty hands on the left and right, each holding a knife, a spear, a whisk, and a dust brush. , umbrellas, mirrors, purification bottles and other magical instruments with great magical powers.
In addition, there is an eye in each hand, which is actually forty-two arms and forty-two eyes.
And this Guanyin looks down and has a kind face.
Looking at it makes people feel calm and compassionate, and gives rise to a compassionate mind to save all living beings and suffering.
After carefully looking at Guanyin's compassionate face, Wang Zijin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "He really didn't use that portrait."
Li Weiyang smiled: "Of course he won't use it.
If he does, wouldn't he tell everyone that he has disloyalty towards Empress Pei?"
Hearing this, Wang Zijin's heart skipped a beat.
He turned to look at Li Weiyang and said, "It seems you are absolutely sure."
Li Weiyang seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "If I am not sure, how can I dare to promise you?"
Pei Guo actually smiled and said: "This Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara is indeed lifelike and graceful.
In addition, this jade was transported thousands of miles from the deep sea.
It is very precious and rare.
Your Majesty, you must reward Master Ying generously."
When the emperor heard this, he still didn't understand.
Empress Pei wanted to take the opportunity to promote Guan Ying Chu to a higher level.
He glanced at Ying Chu with disgust, but his face was indifferent, "Master Ying, you have worked really hard.
But I look at this Thousand-Hand Guanyin.
It looks very similar to the Guanyin statue in Daming Temple.
Are you following the example of Daming Temple?"
The one carved by Guanyin" This clearly meant that Ying Chu was lazy.
Ying Chu quickly said: "Your Majesty, the prototype of this statue was painted by the national master Zhang Cheng himself.
I would never dare to cut corners.
Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
The emperor smiled coldly, looked at Empress Pei and said: "It seems that this minister is really loyal to you.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
This jade Guanyin is really coming true.
I don't know how much effort it takes to have such a beloved minister.
The queen should really relax."
Queen Pei looked at the emperor as if he didn't understand: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Seeing Ying Chu paying tribute to the Thousand-Hand Guanyin, the prince's face showed a hint of ridicule, and his eyes clearly contained a bit of hatred, but he lowered his eyes cleverly to prevent outsiders from seeing it.
Princess Ali gently asked Li Weiyang: "I heard what you and Miss Wang said that day, and it seems that we are going to take action today.
What are you going to do next?"
She and Wang Zijin had some disagreements, but they asked exactly the same questions.
Li Weiyang knew that they were all very anxious, but she said calmly: "It's not about what I want to do, but what I want to do."
Wang Zijin raised his eyebrows and said, "What is the Fifth Young Master going to do?"
Li Weiyang looked not far away: "Didn't you see that Fifth Brother was drinking one cup after another today?
He seemed to have drank too much."
Wang Zijin looked at Director Guo and saw that he was holding Jing and Wang Yuanying, drinking one cup after another.
A blush appeared on his handsome face, making him look even more handsome.
In the past, when Yuan Lie was around, these young masters felt very depressed, just because Yuan Lie's charisma was enough to overshadow anyone else, but now that Yuan Lie is not around, one person can steal Director Guo's limelight for a while.
Many young ladies looked at him quietly, and some seemed to be ready to make a move.
Not long after, Mrs.
Qiao's daughter came over.
Her name was Qiao Hui.
Qiao Hui looked at Li Weiyang, smiled and said: "Miss Guo, I haven't seen you for many days."
Li Weiyang smiled and said calmly: "Miss Qiao is polite."
Miss Qiao then sat down next to Wang Zijin, her smile looking particularly bright.
Qiao Hui is only 17 years old this year.
She has a delicate appearance and a lively and cheerful personality.
She has some friendship with Han Lin, so she has met Li Weiyang in the past, so it is not surprising that she came to say hello today.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, she said: "I heard that the Fifth Young Master was injured some time ago.
I wonder if he is okay now?"
Li Weiyang glanced at Qiao Hui and said with a smile: "Thank you Miss Qiao for your concern.
My fifth brother's health is fine."
A look of joy flashed across Qiao Hui's face, and then she glanced in the direction of Director Guo without any trace, and her smile deepened: "I have always wanted to visit Guo's house, but it's a pity that Miss Han always finds me troublesome.
Refuses to take me there.”
Li Weiyang said calmly: "She and her third brother are getting married soon.
She has been staying behind closed doors recently, and even I can't see her.
Naturally, it is not easy for an unmarried bride to go to Guo's house.
If Miss Qiao is interested, You might as well come and see me.”
Qiao Hui was even more happy when she heard this, and her beautiful face turned red.
Wang Zijin smiled coldly.
She had never been used to these girls who came to her door and cheated on her.
What's more, although Director Guo had a bad mouth and was a bit annoying in his behavior, after all, not all cats and dogs could match him.
The Miss Qiao in front of me is worthy of Director Guo in terms of appearance and life experience, but it's a pity that there was a bad rumor in the past.
When Mrs.
Qiao was not yet prosperous, she made a marriage agreement with a friend and betrothed Miss Qiao to the young master of that family.
Unexpectedly, two years later, the friend's family was defeated, and he had no choice but to bring his son to the door to ask for help.
Unexpectedly, the Qiao family broke up the marriage contract between the two parties without saying a word, and even beat people out with sticks.
As soon as this incident came out, Wang Zijin naturally felt disgusted with Miss Qiao.

Seeing her infatuated look on Director Guo at this moment, Wang Zijin didn't know what was going on and became even more angry.
She said calmly: "Miss Qiao, I heard that although Mr.
Guo has recovered, his one But her right hand will never be able to raise the sword again.
Didn't Miss Qiao once say that she wanted to find a noble man with both civil and military skills?
I'm afraid Mr.
Guo can't afford it."
Hearing this sentence, Qiao Hui's expression changed.
She didn't expect Wang Zijin to speak so straightforwardly.
She couldn't help but stand up in a hurry and said coldly: "I don't know when Miss Wang will leave with the Guo family."
He's so close, and he also likes to talk nonsense, huh."
She snorted coldly, unable to hide her shame and anger, and turned around and left.
Princess Ali looked at each other's back in astonishment, then turned back to look at the other two people in surprise and said: "What on earth is going on?"
Li Weiyang smiled and said: "Zijin drove people away, what else could happen?"
The prince's face turned red and he said, "Jia'er, don't blame me for being nosy.
I just can't stand Qiao Hui."
Li Weiyang looked at her and said in a very gentle tone: "I know what Zijin means.
I also heard about the last time.
It is human nature to dislike the poor and love the rich.
There is nothing surprising in this world.
It's just that this Qiao What the Taifu did was a bit excessive.
He could have just canceled the engagement.
Why would he have to beat the other party seriously?
Such a person really has low moral character.
His father's behavior was already so excessive.
Miss Qiao didn't know how to thank guests behind closed doors.
She also goes around attracting bees and attending garden parties, which shows that her temperament is not much better.
Her parents will not allow her to enter the Guo Mansion.
Besides, it would be better to stop her earlier. , you are right, my fifth brother is indeed injured.
Ordinary women cannot match him, and those self-proclaimed noble women are also unwilling to marry my fifth brother.
This is fine, you can let him choose.
My beloved.”
When Wang Zijin heard this, he was a little surprised: "I hear what you mean, Jia'er, and you seem to be a little laissez-faire."
Li Weiyang smiled and said: "Fifth brother is no longer the young master Guo Wu who was both civil and military.
My mother has already told me that no matter whose girl he likes, as long as he has a clean family background, good character, and gentle temperament, that's all.
Not You must be from a wealthy family, and you don’t need to be versatile in both civil and military affairs.
These things are not beneficial to living at home.”
However, Wang Zijin said disapprovingly: "When marrying a wife, you naturally have to choose one from a hundred.
People like Director Guo, oh, I'm not talking about how good he is."
When she said this, her face seemed to be even redder, but she still looked at Li Weiyang and insisted on being authentic. : "It's just that he was born in the Duke of Qi's palace after all.
It is impossible for him to marry a girl from a small family.
If he doesn't entertain guests in the future, such a woman will be able to come out of the hall.
Wouldn't it be a discredit to the Duke of Qi's palace?"
What Wang Zijin said is not wrong.
As the saying goes: I would rather marry a maidservant than a daughter of a small family.
Even if you can't marry the daughter of a wealthy family, you still want to marry a maid from a wealthy family.

Such girls have excellent tutoring and training.
On the contrary, those Xiaojiabiyu, who have been fed with firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea all year round, have not cultivated a noble temperament.
Li Weiyang and Wang Zijin have different views.
As long as Director Guo likes him, it doesn't really matter what the other person's background is, so she just smiled slightly and said: "Zijin, your idea is not wrong, but my fifth brother has a weird temperament.
Generally, He doesn't like girls.
Especially those who are born in high-ranking families, have arrogant and domineering temperaments or are self-righteous.
Fifth Brother is extremely disgusted.
I think he is still suitable for those girls with gentle temperaments.
As for their background, as long as I, the Duke of Qi, don't mind, who dares?
Say more” Princess Ali nodded and said: "Yes, the girls on our grassland are still enthusiastic and cheerful.
Now that I think about it, I have a friend who admires the fifth young master very much."
After she said this, she saw Wang Zijin's face turn pale for some reason.
Li Weiyang looked in his eyes, but smiled lightly and didn't say much.
Wang Zijin heard the implication of Li Weiyang's words, but after all, she had an arrogant temperament and could not say anything else.
She just lowered her head and sighed softly.
Li Weiyang was secretly telling her that the Duke of Qi did not want to marry the Wang family. , because she and Director Guo are not suitable.
Although she had no intention of marrying Director Guo, she really couldn't stand being disliked in person.
If she hadn't already become friends with Li Weiyang, she might not be able to help but refute.
After forcing herself to suppress it, she whispered: "It's hard to say anything about marriage.
It doesn't mean you can do whatever you want."
After saying this, she felt that she had made a mistake, but she stopped talking.
Li Weiyang glanced at her lightly and said with a warm smile: "Yes, as the saying goes, if you are destined to meet each other thousands of miles away, if you are not destined to meet each other, you will not know each other.
Things like fate cannot be controlled by people.
Maybe the fifth brother will meet the one he likes tomorrow.
Not necessarily girls."
Wang Zijin looked at Li Weiyang steadily and was about to say something, when something unexpected happened.
Ying Chu retreated after receiving the reward.
Just as he walked to the banquet, there was a sudden "bang" sound.
Director Guo threw the wine glass to the ground, stood up suddenly, pointed at Ying Chu and said coldly: "What are you doing?"
Ying Chu had already stepped out with one foot.
Hearing this, he stopped and turned around to look at him and said, "What do you mean, Mr.
Guo?"
Originally, Ying Chu was just walking by Director Guo, but for some reason everyone heard the sound of Director Guo's wine glass falling to the ground.
They all looked at Ying Chu with suspicion.
Sure enough, they heard Director Guo say angrily: " Mr.
Ying, even though you have just received a reward from His Majesty and the Queen, you should not be so arrogant and domineering.
I am drinking here peacefully.
Why do you want to provoke you and bump into me on purpose?"
Ying Chu frowned and said: "Master Guo, don't be dazzled.
Have I ever done such a thing?"
Director Guo was sitting on the desk, with a sarcastic smile on his face, as if he was drunk: "Master Ying, since you have done something wrong, you can just say sorry, why should you be so disrespectful?
This is Your Majesty."
Here, do you dare to lie casually?"
Ying Chu couldn't help but feel a little angry, and he said coldly: "Then I'm sorry, Mr.
Guo."

After saying that, he was about to walk forward again, but Director Guo stepped aside and blocked him, with a cold expression on his face: "Say something.
I’m sorry, is this the end?”
Ying Chu frowned even more tightly, and the half of the silver mask exuded a faint cold light under the moonlight, but this was nothing compared to the coldness in his eyes.
He said every word: "I don't know what Mr.
Guo wants to do."
Director Guo smiled faintly, his expression full of indifference, "Of course I want to pour a glass of wine to apologize."
Ying Chu snorted coldly: "You, Director Guo, have no reputation.
You have to sit here today because you are under the cover of the Duke of Qi.
But I am an official in the DPRK.
Why do you ask me to pour you wine and apologize?"
How decent” Director Guo said with a half-smile: "A sycophant like you always only knows how to exclude dissidents, cover up the sky with one hand, and pretend to be powerful.
You don't have the slightest decency to be a courtier, and you are worthy of reasoning with me.
What is the family background of the Duke of Qi?
What kind of family do you have?"
What kind of thing is that?”
Ying Chu couldn't help but be furious.
He had always been a person with great endurance skills.
Although he had been suppressing it, he had received so many cold looks in recent times that he had been pushed to the extreme.
A cold light flashed in his eyes.
He said with a gloomy face: "Mr.
Guo, what is the occasion now?
I'm driving you crazy here.
This is the main hall, not the market.
You actually spoke to me with such an attitude.
It's simply a hooligan act that has tarnished the family name of the Duke's family.
Everyone has their own opinions on the rights and wrongs.
I don't have the same understanding as you.
If you If you are not convinced, you can ask your father to come and make a decision with me."
"My father," Director Guo said with a sneer, "my father is the dignified Duke of Qi, your Majesty's minister, and he is still fighting bloody battles on the front line.
Who do you think you are?
Why are you compared with him?
How dare you call him here?"
If I try to argue with you, Ying Chu, your words will turn the world upside down.
You really think you are some great person, but you are just a treacherous and sycophantic eunuch.
Even a eunuch deserves to show off his power here."
The word eunuch repeatedly touched Ying Chu's nerves.
Yes, he was a eunuch, but he was once a normal man.
This has become a hidden pain in his heart, but Director Guo still mentioned it again and again.
He suppressed his overwhelming anger: "Since Mr.
Guo is so rude, I have no choice but to ask Your Majesty and the Empress to make a decision.
"He didn't want to say any more and turned around to leave.
Director Guo's expression remained unchanged and he snorted coldly: "Wait a minute, a grown man wants to run under the Queen's skirt and wag his tail to beg for mercy.
How can you be so embarrassed?
I forgot, are you a dog of the Queen?"
Director Guo was so unscrupulous that Ying Chu was shocked.

After all, he was an official of the dynasty.
At this moment, he couldn't help but laughed angrily: "Master Guo, you are so bold and reckless that you don't even pay attention to the empress."
After that, He pushed Director Guo opened his door and walked forward.
Unexpectedly, Director Guo laughed loudly, grabbed Ying Chu's outer robe and pushed it violently, saying loudly: "You are a thing with a human face and an animal heart, what are you doing wearing clothes?"
Get down on the ground and scream twice.”
Before Ying Chu could react, he felt that his clothes were broken.
When he turned around, Fang Yu was furious but was stunned.
Unexpectedly, there was a scroll on the ground.
Before he could move, Director Guo had already grabbed it with his hands. , said loudly: "I don't know what kind of precious thing it is, but it can actually make Master Ying still hide it in his arms."
After everyone heard this, they all looked over and the scroll slowly unfolded.
Ying Chu's eyes immediately turned cold.
He took a step forward and seemed to want to grab the scroll, but Director Guo moved faster than him, and Ying Chu's outstretched hand was grabbed by King Jing.
She clasped his wrist behind her back and struck hard, but with a smile on her face she said: "Master Ying, why should you be anxious?
Mr.
Guo is just joking with you.
Don't be angry."
He looked like he was trying to start a fight, as if he was afraid that Ying Chu would rush up and cause trouble to Director Guo.
However, his expression was very strange.
He quickly blinked at Director Guo.
Director Guo suddenly reached the crowd and deliberately opened the scroll slowly in front of everyone.
Then someone exclaimed: "Oh, it turns out to be Guanyin. " Director Guo immediately laughed and said: "Master Ying is really loyal to the empress, and he actually puts this Guanyin in his arms.
But that's wrong, this Guanyin is different from the one just now, why does it look like the empress?"
After finishing this sentence, people's faces became very excited in an instant.
King Jing sneered, but he pretended to be surprised: "This Guanyin's appearance really looks like the empress.
It's so strange.
Master Ying, you don't use this portrait to carve it, but you just keep it in your arms."
"Why is this?"
Everyone was thinking the same thing.
Previously, Ying Chu searched for famous painters in the market and asked them to draw the appearance of the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara, and then found a first-class jade craftsman to carve it.
However, the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara he carved was different from what he has now.
The picture carefully treasured in my arms is completely different.
This scene really makes people feel a little weird.
Since Ying Chu doesn’t use this portrait, why would he hide this scroll in his arms?
Thinking of this, everyone can’t help showing a look of fear on their faces, but Ying Chu has already grabbed it He passed the scroll and stuffed it into his arms again.
Seeing this scene, the prince's face became extremely ugly.
Of course he knew why Ying Chu hid this picture that looked exactly like his mother in his arms, because he had never given up on his mother and still thought about it with that dirty mind.
He hated him to the extreme, but what could the prince do?
Could he stand up and explain to everyone immediately?
Unless he was crazy.
But if he didn't say anything, it would solidify Ying Chu's impression in everyone's mind.
The prince didn't care whether Ying Chu was dead or alive, but this matter involved Empress Pei.
Thinking of this, he immediately stepped forward and laughed loudly: "Mr.
Guo, you really drank too much this time."
Director Guo quickly held his head and said dizzily: "Oh, it's true, I did drink too much.
Master Ying, I'm really sorry for frightening you."

Ying Chu almost hated him, but he couldn't get angry in front of everyone, because the more angry he was, the more people would see his thoughts.
Thinking of this, he forced himself to swallow the hatred in his heart and secretly He gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master Guo, don't worry about it, I won't take it to heart."
After saying that, he quickly turned around and left.
After Ying Chu left, everyone started talking about it.
"Hey, why do you think Master Ying put Empress Pei's picture scroll in his arms for no reason?"
"Who knew?
I really can't understand that a eunuch like him would have such thoughts about Empress Pei."
Someone retorted: "You know what, Master Ying was the domestic slave next to Empress Pei back then.
The two of them lived together day and night and faced each other day and night.
I'm afraid they developed some thoughts that they shouldn't have."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone commented: "You are so bold, you dare to say such a thing."
Then there were whispers and weird laughter.

Why did he keep it with him and pinch it?
