Chapter 181 The Palace Banquet Opens

Ye Zhiyu wanted to have a fit, but he was also afraid that if he offended the man in black, he would suddenly burst out and crush himself to death in a remote place, fearing that no one would find him until he turned into a pile of bones.

I could only make another mental note and pretended not to hear it and walked out of the door.

On the way back, the little eunuch was still walking in front of Ye Zhiyu to lead the way. Ye Zhiyu looked at the flattering smile on his face that did not change at all, biting his teeth again and again, but still couldn't help but speak.

"My father-in-law seems to be young, but he has learned a lot about cultivating qi, and there is no trace of guilt on his face!"

The little eunuch turned sideways and smiled apologetically at her, "The girl, like me, is a hard-working person who is ordered by others. If the girl can relieve her anger and feel more comfortable after cursing a few words, then the little one can also nothing."

It was like a punch on cotton. Although Ye Zhiyu was still angry, the little eunuch was indeed right.

If you don't lure yourself into the situation today, I'm afraid no one will notice if there is a corpse somewhere in this deep palace.

But because of being coerced by others, can he harm others so calmly?

Ye Zhiyu opened his mouth to say something, but looking at the thin back of the little eunuch in front of him, he just sighed and said nothing.

Unexpectedly, he was approached by a man in black again. Ye Zhiyu was so angry that he returned to the banquet hall angrily. When he saw that there was still only the remains of a cup of tea when he left on the table, his eyes widened.

"Why aren't you having a party yet?"

The woman next to her might have moved back to her original seat while she was leaving. At this moment, she heard Ye Zhiyu's loud muttering and was secretly speechless.

It was the first time I saw someone so bold and dared to openly complain about the Queen Mother's arrangements. Although this woman looked ordinary, she sounded confident in her words, which showed that she was really valued by the Regent.

Otherwise, how could she, a previously unknown woman, be safe and sound after offending Princess Qingxiang?
Unexpectedly, Ye Zhiyu just muttered because she was hungry. The noble lady had already regarded her outspokenness as a villain's advantage, and planned to exaggerate it during tea chats in her small circle.

Unaware of the turmoil in the heart of the woman next to him, Ye Zhiyu was filled with regret at this moment. Why did he only have one plate of snacks before going out in the morning?
With her chest touching her back, could Shen Yanliu want to starve her to death?

Fortunately, Ye Zhiyu was not kept waiting too long. Shen Yanliu, dressed in solemn palace attire, finally arrived belatedly.

Behind him was a eunuch and a maid making a majestic staff, and Shen Yanliu had a kind smile on his face.

Raising his hands to the officials who were kneeling in front of the audience, Shen Yanliu greeted, "Please be safe. Today, the Ai family just wants to have fun with the ladies of the palace who have not seen each other for a long time. This is why we have set up this banquet, please do not be formal."

Now that Shen Yanliu had spoken like this, everyone stood up after saying "Thank you, Queen Mother" in unison.

The palace maids carrying trays filed in. Ye Zhiyu only smelled the aroma. Before he could see the specific dishes, he saw a white-haired veteran standing up tremblingly in the front seat and bowing to Shen Yanliu again. Go down.

"Old minister, please greet the Queen Mother. May I ask how your majesty's dragon body is doing? Why don't you see your majesty?"

The banquet that had just been lively for a while suddenly became quiet again, with hundreds of pairs of eyes looking at the two of them nervously.

A trace of sadness flashed across Shen Yanliu's face, "I just went to see Ai Jia this morning, and His Majesty has not recovered yet. Although he has been nursing for a long time, he is still..."

Shaking his head, Shen Yanliu didn't understand what he meant.

But the courtiers had not seen the emperor in court for several days. How could they stay aloof as Shen Yanliu controlled the government for longer and longer days?

Although the ministers at the table had their own plans in mind, they were not all thinking about Feng Yanzhi like the old white-haired minister.But now that there was already someone who wanted to find out what was going on, there was no reason to interfere.Everyone watched coldly as the old minister was still kneeling on the ground with no intention of getting up. Apparently they were dissatisfied with Shen Yanliu's prevarication and wanted to know more about it.

Suddenly, a burly man at the other table stood up and saluted Shen Yanliu with a wine glass in hand.

"I am a rough man, but I am honored to serve the country because of the appreciation of Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. Today I am honored by the Queen Mother, and I am proud to be here. I drink this cup to show my loyalty!"

Shen Yanliu nodded with a smile and moved the maid next to him to go over and refill the wine for the general.

Unexpectedly, the general raised his head and swallowed the wine in the glass. Before the palace maid could pass by, he filled the glass again, turned around and raised the glass in the other direction.

"When I first entered the military camp, I lived in chaos with no knowledge or skills. It was all thanks to the guidance of the prince that I was able to serve the court. If the prince has given me the kindness to be reborn, it is all in the wine. !”

Ye Zhiyu was frightened when he heard this.

The two paragraphs before and after this military commander vividly show the difference between closeness and distance.

Although the words were full of gratitude, speaking like this in front of all the ministers was clearly putting Feng Wuming on the fire!

Everyone's eyes were even more unpredictable, and they never stopped looking back and forth between Shen Yanliu and Feng Wuming.

There was a flash of fire in Shen Yanliu's eyes, and he was so angry that he squeezed the armrest of the phoenix chair tightly, and the tips of his five fingers turned white.

Feng Wuming didn't notice that the atmosphere was strange, and raised his glass calmly, "Back then, I was ordered to lead the army, and my fate with the captain was all thanks to His Majesty's grace."

"What's more, I have led countless soldiers. Only a few of them can achieve what the captain has achieved today. I guess it is due to the captain's talent. Why should the captain belittle himself and blame the king for nothing? ?”

Without waiting for the general's reply, he imitated his behavior and drank the whole drink in one gulp.

Seeing Feng Wuming being so calm, Ye Zhiyu felt a little relieved.

Frowning, he quietly looked at the troublesome military general. Seeing that he didn't notice anything strange, he was still sipping the wine that Shen Yanliu sent the palace maid to pour. Ye Zhiyu couldn't see clearly whether this man had done it intentionally or not. A simple pig teammate.

However, the general's words were interrupted. The old minister had already been helped to his feet by the chamberlain, so it was no longer possible to ask further questions.

Everyone looked at the excitement with somewhat uninterested eyes, and turned around to continue chatting with the people sitting at the table.

As a prince, Feng Wuming apparently has a distinguished status and should not sit with others at the same table. In fact, Shen Yanliu has something in mind. Who among the people present doesn't know?
Looking at Feng Wuming's back drinking alone, Ye Zhiyu felt a little sour in his heart.

If she wasn't afraid of causing trouble by acting rashly, she would have had the urge to go over and sit at the same table as Feng Wuming.

Before Ye Zhiyu could figure out where this inexplicable idea came from, the banquet was filled with ups and downs.

Perhaps seeing that the general's fire was not strong enough, an elegant man stood up and bowed to Feng Wuming again.

"I have heard about the prince for a long time, and today I am finally lucky enough to meet him!"
