Chapter 162 At the Palace Banquet, Discomfort

In the palace, the New Year's Eve dinner is also a lively time.

Emperor Jing is only fifteen years old, no matter how majestic he is in front of outsiders, he will be a little more childlike during the New Year.

I really like this kind of liveliness, singing and dancing at the banquet.

The courtiers toasted and celebrated, and the auspicious words were repeated over and over again.

Emperor Jing was very happy, and Xu Meiren beside him poured him a glass of wine when she saw this.

"It's rare for the emperor to be so happy, so I'll drink two more glasses today to add to the fun."

Emperor Jing ascended the throne for five years, and his successor is temporarily undecided.

In the harem, there are only two noble concubines, one Zhaoyi, and this beauty Xu.

On such an important occasion today, Xu Meiren passed the two noble concubines and sat beside the emperor.

This kind of doting naturally makes people understand her position in Emperor Jing's heart at a glance.

With the beauty at his side, Emperor Jing drank two more glasses.

After a while, the spirit of wine came up, and he glanced at Xiao Jingze who was sitting at the bottom.

"Why isn't the emperor's interest high? Could it be that the banquet in the palace is boring?

Or, I'm not very interested in calling the emperor uncle here? "

Xiao Jingze frowned, his long eyelashes half covered his deep black eyes, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

"The emperor drank too much."

There was no respect in the cold tone.

Seeing Xiao Jingze being so arrogant, Emperor Jing became a little more angry.

"Did I drink too much? How dare I talk to the emperor uncle like this!"

As soon as these words came out, everything was silent.

Others didn't dare to vent their anger, they just wished they could pretend to be drunk.

When Emperor Ren died, Xiao Jingze was made the regent and assisted the young Emperor Jing to succeed to the throne.

Over the years, Xiao Jingze has been a bit arrogant.

But he didn't overstep the rules, and still guarded Emperor Jing's country firmly.

But the more this happened, the more suspicious Emperor Jing became, whether Xiao Jingze would replace him one day.

He feared and hated this uncle.

But because of its weak foundation, it cannot be shaken at all, and it can only be endured.

Today's few glasses of wine were an introduction, which ignited all kinds of unhappiness in his heart.

"Otherwise, I should ask.

Is the emperor sitting down and can't see clearly?Sit here instead? "

Xiao Jingze finally raised his eyes and glanced at Emperor Jing.

There is no warmth in the eyes, the darkness is like the deep sea.

Thumb, slowly turning the jade wrench on the ring finger, as if this could calm him down.

Emperor Jing obviously held a high position, but when he met Xiao Jingze's gaze, he was defeated.

"Uncle, did I say something wrong?"

Because he had no confidence, the words of this question were also lowered.

Other than Xiao Jingze and him, no one else heard it.

Seeing this, Xu Meiren at the side hurried out to smooth things over.

"The regent calm down, the emperor is also concerned about you.

A few days ago, the concubine found a blood jade finger wrench, thinking that the regent should like it. "

As soon as Xu Meiren raised her hand, the maid brought an exquisite wooden box to Xiao Jingze's desk.

Open it, and there is a blood jade wrench lying inside.

The jade color is transparent, and the blood color infiltration is also extremely perfect.

Xiao Jingze picked it up and looked at it, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.

"Indeed, it's a rare Blood Jade Finger Wrench.

To be able to find this is also Xu Meiren's heart. "

Xu Meiren breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Xiao Jingze said.

"To be liked by the Prince Regent, my concubine..."

"Things like this should be worth a lot.

Xu Meiren's brother embezzled 20 taels of silver for this purpose? "

Xiao Jingze threw down the blood jade finger wrench, not showing any sympathy to Xu Meiren.

Last time, Xu Guangzheng's chief assistant's son, Xu Shengnian, Xu Meiren's elder brother, was also involved in the case of corruption of ink and silver.

Later, Xu Guangzheng told him to return to his hometown, Xu Shengnian was dismissed from office, and Xu Meiren was demoted two grades.

Only in this way can their lives be saved.

Everyone in the court knew that this was what Emperor Jing meant.

It's okay to fool the past on the bright side.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Jingze said it in front of so many people. This is not only a slap in the face of Xu Meiren, but also a slap in the face of the emperor!
"Chen, my concubine..."

Seeing that Xu Mei was so angry that she couldn't even speak, Emperor Jing was very distressed.

"Uncle, enough is enough, I have tolerated you for a long time.

On such an auspicious day, the emperor insisted on making everyone unhappy? "

Xiao Jingze got up and strode away.

"The king is tired..."

Dressed in black, it melted into the night, and brought a gust of cold wind, which made everyone present shiver.

Emperor Jing looked at his back and gritted his teeth fiercely.

One day, he will trample Xiao Jingze under his feet.

Let Xiao Jingze regret it.

This country belongs to him, not Xiao Jingze.

--------

Today's New Year's Eve, the capital is very lively.

It's just that this excitement has nothing to do with Xiao Jingze.

He returned to the palace in a carriage, but the palace was still completely dark.

Lift your foot to enter the door and walk through the dark corridor.

Suddenly, I heard a few soft meows.

He stopped and followed the sound.

In the darkness, I saw a cat sneaking out from behind the rockery.

She seemed a little alert, looking up at him, not daring to approach him.

"hungry?"

Xiao Jingze took a step forward, and Mao'er took a step back.

He hid in the cave behind the rockery again, and refused to come out again.

Looking at that posture, Xiao Jingze couldn't help curling his lips.

"Exactly the same as your master.

When I met Ben Wang, he ran faster than a rabbit. "

His tone was a bit relaxed, not as cold as outside.

"Really not coming out? I'll give you some fresh fish, do you want it?"

The cat refused to come out, and seemed to be very frightened, so it simply hid in the hole.

Xiao Jingze didn't urge him, turned around and went to the back kitchen, found a piece of fresh fish and went outside the cave.

"Fresh, do you want to eat?"

The cat still didn't move, he put the fish in the hole very patiently.

"You really don't eat?"

The cat finally made some movement: "Meow, meow, meow."

If Su Jinxiu was here, she would definitely understand.

I want to eat, cooked.

Seeing that the cat refused to come out, Xiao Jingze threw the fish away.

"I'm used to you?"

Did not take two steps, and went back.

Resigned to his fate, he carried the fish into the kitchen, steamed it in a pan, and brought it back.

This time, the cat who smelled it finally came out.

He sniffed it tentatively, then meowed at Xiao Jingze twice.

Xiao Jingze frowned, and pressed hard on the jade ring.

"Do you think that this king dare not kill you?"

The next moment, he picked up the chopsticks and picked off the scales and bones of the fish.

Satisfied this time, the cat bowed its head and began to eat.

"What is it called Lucky? It should be called Uncle!"

It was also strange, I had never seen a cat so delicate in front of Su Jinxiu before.

It also needs to be steamed to remove the fishbone, tsk, I don’t know who is used to it.

When the cat was full, he didn't even look at Xiao Jingze.

Drilling back into the cave again, he licked his paws on his own.

Xiao Jingze stood up coldly and strode away.

Back in the study, I received an urgent letter from Fei Ge, which had just been delivered to the desk.

When he opened it, his eyebrows and eyes stretched.

The coldness faded from the eyes, and there was a little warmth.

Pushing open the window, looking at the gorgeous fireworks in the night, it was the first time that I wanted to appreciate it.

"You too, be safe and happy."

Although thousands of miles apart, the two are looking at the same sky.

 Zhaocai: "I seem to have heard someone calling me uncle just now.

  Promise, I might die.

  If I don't agree, I feel aggrieved again.

  Anyway, I have nine lives, can I kill one? "

  Xiao Rui: "I advise you not to, nine hundred lives are not enough for you to die."
