Chapter 420 Night Party
The western sky seems to be flowing with hot magma, red is dazzling, gold is dazzling, the golden halo of the sun hides behind the shining clouds, and the afterglow sets off the glazed tiles, making the entire imperial city look extraordinarily magnificent.

The guests of Prince Yi's mansion were full of wine, and they all bid farewell to King Yi happily, and they did not forget to say a few words of blessing before parting.

There is no permanent banquet in the world, the noise is far away, and what is left is a piece of leftovers in Prince Yi's mansion, and the servants clean up the mess in an orderly manner.

In a blink of an eye, the sun withdrew the light it had sprinkled on the world, and lamps gradually lit up in the capital.

Along with the night came the sadness of parting. I don’t know which servant lamented softly, causing the servant sleeping in the same room to feel down together.

A few years ago, the young master Fang Anren was guarding the border, and there was only the prince and his wife in this mansion, because there was always a lack of someone, so no matter how much they celebrated the festivals, they felt lonely.

It was not easy for the young master to return to the capital and marry a wife. He thought that the royal family would finally be reunited, but after all, things are unpredictable.

After the young master left with the young lady, he didn't know when he would be able to come back again, let alone such a banquet.

The little servant snapped his fingers and muttered, "There's only one day left, only one day left..."

At night, the lights in the imperial study room are still on, but this is not unusual, because since the case of Sheng Xiuyu's treason, the emperor has lived here, and has never returned to his bedroom, and he has never even set foot in the harem.

The low couch in the imperial study room was covered with soft quilts, and there was a gilt Boshan stove not far away, curling smoke rose from it, and the whole room was filled with refreshing incense.

This is what Li Fuquan saw when he stepped into the imperial study room. He first reported to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the eunuch who attended the banquet in Prince Yi's Palace has returned."

As he spoke, a servant who had changed into a palace uniform stepped forward and knelt down.

Hearing this, the emperor made a move. He gave Li Fuquan a look almost benevolently, then raised his hand and waved.

Li Fuquan understood, and before leaving, he extinguished the spices burning in the Boshan furnace.

After Sheng Xiuyu gave the emperor medicine, the emperor ordered a thorough investigation of the Imperial Medical Bureau, and now the remaining imperial physicians are all people with clean family backgrounds and a clean slate.

Everyone is afraid of death, and the emperor is not exempt from it. Instead of checking his pulse every half a month, he has changed it to once every three days. Moreover, he also ordered the imperial physician to make a special prescription for his body. Too much hospital inspection is the job.

Li Fuquan closed the door of the imperial study room, and the servant said, "Reporting to the emperor, today's wedding banquet in Prince Yi's mansion, except that General Pei, who had a good relationship with Commander Fang, was not present, everything else was normal."

The emperor responded with an "um", Pei Mo came to ask him to resign, and of course he couldn't attend the banquet.

After a while, he thought of something, and asked, "Where is King Yi, what is King Yi's attitude?"

"Back to the emperor, King Yi is delighted with the promotion of Commander Fang Da. He drank a lot of wine at the banquet today, and there is no sign of reluctance."

The emperor stroked his beard and nodded, "Okay, you can go down."

Then he looked back at the water clock on the wall, tomorrow is the third day, and the day after tomorrow is the time for Fang Anren to leave.

It was getting late, the emperor pressed the sore corners of his eyes, turned his head and blew out the candles beside the table, he couldn't remember how long he hadn't gone to bed so early.

Pei Mo didn't have a capable assistant by his side, so he had the opportunity to hold Pei Mo in his hands. It seemed that the emperor who had seen Fang Anren leave the capital and go far away finally fell asleep in peace.

Soon, there was a low snoring sound in the imperial study.

The night outside is extremely quiet, but this tranquility is like a hazy illusion.

"Cuckoo-"

A bird chirped at the back door of the General's Mansion, and Wu Yi, who was guarding the door, moved his ears slightly, then leaned his head to the door again, raised his hand and tapped lightly twice.

The next second, there were two knocks on the door.

After confirming that Fang Anren was outside the door, Wuyi opened the door with confidence, "Master Fang, please come in quickly."

The person outside the door was indeed Fang Anren, but he brought Yan Ru with him.

Pei Mo and Murong Qing were awake, they were sitting in the hall waiting for Fang Anren's arrival.

Although he didn't attend the wedding banquet during the day, Murong Qing still sent someone to send a generous gift to Prince Yi's residence.

Inside the gift was a seal carved from suet jade, which belonged to Pei Mo. Seeing this seal, Fang Anren immediately understood that Brother Pei was sending him a signal to meet tonight.

Seeing Yan Ru, Murong Qing was stunned, and the next second carefully stepped forward to help her sit down, "It's so late, why don't you have a good rest, why did you follow An Ren to the General's Mansion?"

Seeing Yan Ru's pale face, Murong Qing asked Wu Yi to go to the kitchen and boil a bowl of ginseng soup.

Yan Ru ignored Fang Anren's concerned gaze, and shook her head at Murong Qing, "Thank you Madam for your concern, I'm not tired, I just want to see you."

In fact, she went shopping that day, and after Murong Qing said those words to her, she felt uneasy. Even though she knew that Murong Qing had some unspeakable secrets, she was still very worried, and she had to see Murong Qing in person.

But during the day, she had to help with the promotion banquet, so she couldn't leave, otherwise she would have come to see Murong Qing long ago.

Hearing her weak voice, Murong Qing couldn't bear to say anything serious, so he turned to An Ren and said, "An Ren, you too, why don't you persuade Yan Ru."

Fang Anren said helplessly, "Sister-in-law, I can't persuade you."

As long as she said no, Yan Ru would look at him with wet eyes, as if he had made some unforgivable mistake. Fang Anren gritted her teeth and refused to look at her cruelly. Sleeves, never let go.

I don't know where I learned this grueling kung fu.

Seeing the faint ruthlessness in Yan Ru's eyes, Fang Anren felt distressed and angry, so what else could he do, he could only let her go.

Hearing that he was being reprimanded by Murong Qing, Yan Ru felt a little embarrassed, she took Murong Qing's hand, "Sister-in-law, I forced myself to follow, don't blame him."

Murong Qing didn't want to say anything, he just looked Yan Ru up and down to make sure she was fine, so he was relieved.

"Okay, let's get down to business."

Seeing that the two who came in the dark were safe and sound, Pei Mo opened his mouth.

Fang Anren asked, "Brother Pei, why didn't you come to the palace to attend the wedding banquet today?"

To be honest, Fang Anren was really disappointed that he didn't see Pei Mo, and spent the rest of the time trying to deal with the guests he didn't want to see.

But when he saw the mutton fat jade seal, he understood. It is estimated that Brother Pei was stumbled by something, otherwise Brother Pei's temperament would not be absent for no reason.
