Jiaochu

Chapter 59: Fighting for the King of Flowers at the Hundred Flowers Banquet ([-])
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the building, as if something exploded. People blocking the door ran out like crazy, and a thick smoke came out of the building.

"Is there a fire?" Ye Lingxi asked worriedly.

Ye Lingjue took a look outside and said, "It's not a fire, it's the smoke released after the thunder bomb exploded."

"Is this poisonous?" Ye Lingxi asked.

Ye Lingjue replied: "It's not very toxic, it just irritates the eyes." As he spoke, his eyes fell on the narrow alley next to Zixue Pavilion, where Dong Mo had gone around to the back.

Ye Lingxi also stared in that direction and saw three people rushing towards the carriage. One of them was Dong Mo, and the other two were Ye Xingye and Hu Yuhan.

After the two entered the carriage, Ye Lingxi was a little surprised to find that there was a bruise on Hu Yuhan's forehead, as if someone had slapped him with a sap, but luckily there was no blood.Ye Xingye's eyes were rubbed red, looking like rabbit eyes.

"Did you get into a fight?"

Ye Xingye immediately started chatting and told vividly the thrilling scene a few minutes ago.

Just as Ye Lingjue said, it was the smoke emitted by the thunderbolt explosion. The building was in chaos at that time. He and Hu Yuhan were also crowded away. He was blinded by the smoke and could not see anything clearly. He was always in the building. He was spinning around and couldn't get out, so Dong Mo came in and took him out through the back door.

"Third brother, can you see clearly now?"

Ye Lingxi's back dangled in front of Ye Xingye's eyes, and Ye Xingye could see a blurry shadow.

"How did you get this injury?" Ye Lingjue glanced at the bruised skin on Hu Yuhan's forehead.

"He was plotted against someone." A chill appeared on Hu Yuhan's face, and her determined eyes had identified the person who plotted against him.As soon as the thunder bomb exploded, he was covered over his head and received a sap on his forehead. He was dragged to the backyard and received several more blows on his body. However, he was not a vegetarian. A carp slapped him hard and he was swept. Tang Ji turned the situation around. Even though he couldn't see the other party with his head covered, he could tell the number of people from the footsteps. After a fist fight, he cleared them all up and asked one of them who was behind the scenes. .

The thugs fled back to the gambling house with bruises and bruises. The boss of the gambling house scolded them for their ineffectiveness and warned them to keep their mouths shut and go to a village outside the city to avoid the limelight.

After the carriage stopped at a nearby medical clinic, Dong Mo helped Ye Xingye and Hu Yuhan get out of the carriage. Ye Lingxi wanted to follow but was stopped by Ye Lingjue. He asked Dong Mo to follow them.After half an hour, the three people came out. After Ye Xingye's eyes were rinsed, he could see clearly, although there was still a bit of double vision. The doctor said that he would be fine after a sleep. Hu Yuhan wiped medicinal wine on his forehead and it was already clear. Some swelling has gone away.

After the two got on the carriage, Dong Mo first sent Hu Yuhan back to his house, and then drove the carriage back to the palace. It was already evening when he entered through the palace gate.

When returning to Weiyang Palace, Ye Lingxi brought the bell and just entered the door and bumped into the bell that was about to go out.

"Princess, please come back early next time. The emperor came over just now and asked where you were. The servant replied that you were studying in the library. What if the emperor asks someone to go to the library to ask?"

"It's okay, I sneaked out through the back door and no one saw it."

Ye Lingxi asked Lingdang to go back to the house and put away the box. There were four candied haws in it, two for each person. Lingdang happily took the box and left.

As soon as he entered the palace, Eunuch De came to greet him and diligently led Ye Lingxi to Ye Lanchen and Concubine Lan.

"Your Majesty, if the princess studies so hard, she will definitely be a talented girl in the future, and she might even be able to win the top female prize." Eunuch De complimented.

Ye Lingxi proudly raised her little head and said, "I want to be a female general, which will be so majestic." Ye Lanchen and Lan Fei both smiled, and Ye Lanchen picked her up and sat down next to him and asked, "Recently? Tell your father what you have learned."

"Master proposed a debate topic the day before yesterday, saying that you can't have both fish and bear's paws. Father, why can't you have both fish and bear's paws? Is it because you're afraid that they will fight?" Ye Lingxi asked innocently and ignorantly.

"The Emperor just said that you study hard, but it's all revealed with your mouth." Concubine Lan joked with a gentle smile.

Ye Lingxi puffed out her cheeks and complained: "Father, my mother and concubine are cruel to me~"

"I've been in the palace for so long, and I've never seen Lan'er lose her temper." Ye Lanchen chuckled and looked at Concubine Lan, her eyes wrapping around her like a whirlpool. Concubine Lan blushed and lowered her eyelashes, looking slightly... He shouted angrily, Your Majesty.

Ye Lingxi felt that it was a bit redundant to be sandwiched between the two of them, so she pretended to be angry and said: "Father knows how to look at my mother and concubine. Lingxi is hungry and has gone to eat. Father can look at her as long as he wants." After saying this, He slid down on the bed, spread his short legs and slipped away.

Ye Lanchen asked Eunuch De to follow him to take care of the situation, and Eunuch De retreated wisely.

The next day, when Ye Lingxi went to the study room, she found that Hu Yuhan was not there. It was probably because she was embarrassed to see people because of the injury on her forehead, she thought to herself.

A group of people surrounded Zhao Ce and Rong Jue, and they didn't know what they were talking about, and they all looked beaming.

When Ye Lingxi came over, Zhao Ce averted his eyes with a guilty look, and motioned to others to stop talking with his eyes. Rong Jue quietly hinted at Chen Ping, with a snicker on his face, and said, "Fuck it." I'm afraid that others won't know about bad things."

"I heard that Brother Hu got into a fight with someone yesterday and his face was so stained that he didn't even dare to show his face."

Ye Xingye said, "What kind of fight is this? Someone plotted against him!"

Rong Jue asked, "How does Your Highness know? Is His Highness also there?"

Seeing that Ye Xingye was speechless, Ye Lingxi also asked: "How do you know? Could it be you did it?"

"Princess, don't talk nonsense. Maybe he offended his enemies outside, and he didn't go to some serious places, so his enemies took advantage of him," Rong Jue said.

Ye Xingye said angrily: "What do you mean, who is not serious?"

"Your Highness, don't be angry, I'm just guessing." Rong Jue said with an apologetic smile, and then said that the master was coming soon. Everyone returned to their seats, and Ye Xingye had no choice but to give up.

During lunch, Rong Jue and Chen Ping Jin Yao discussed yesterday's Hundred Flowers Banquet with great interest. Zhao Ce asked the three of them to keep their voices down and glanced at Ye Lingxi from time to time.

Rong Jue could not forget the newcomer whom Zixue Pavilion favored. This was the first time he had seen such a graceful person. His posture was soft and beautiful, and he was more than ten times more beautiful than the person in the painting.

Jin Yao was more curious about what happened to those cigarettes. Zhao Ce said that it must have been done by Mr. Hu's people. Thunderball was Mr. Hu's specialty and he could do it better than those in the military camp. He also said that that kid Hu Yuhan deserved to be unlucky.
