Chapter 245 The Palace Scandal (4)
"My servant is Xiang'er, the maid in front of Concubine Mi. Concubine Mi asked this servant to come and tell you quietly that Mr. Shao was sent to prison by the Emperor's people. Hurry up and find a way to save him!"

"What?!" Shao Xilan's eyes widened immediately, looking at the maid as if she was watching a ghost.

"My son..." Mrs. Shao didn't come up in one breath, and passed out directly.

Shao Suwen and the young man hurried forward to support the man, pinching him, rubbing his chest and beating his back, tossing and tossing to wake him up, Mrs. Shao managed to get over this breath and wanted to cry loudly, but was covered by Shao Xilan in time Opened his mouth: "Don't cry! Are you crying here because you think your son died too slowly?!"

Mrs. Shao was too frightened to make a sound, but she was extremely worried, so she held Shao Xilan's hand tightly and sobbed softly, "Master, you must find a way to save Junwen, he is my concubine's life! "

"Do you need to say that? He is also my son." After all, Shao Xilan is an old man in the officialdom, much calmer than a woman.He stabilized his mind, and told Shao Suwen: "You help your wife back to the banquet, and after a while, just say that you are not happy, and leave first. Anyway, go to your house and wait for news from me."

Shao Suwen hurriedly agreed, helped Mrs. Shao get up slowly, arranged her bun and beads for her, took a handkerchief and wiped the sweat and tears on her face, Fang sighed: "Madam, don't you Too anxious. There is a master in everything, let's go first."

Mrs. Shao naturally had no choice but to support Shao Suwen's arm tremblingly and went back. After coping casually for a while, she excused herself from being unwell, left the banquet early, and returned home.

And after Shao Xilan sent his wife away, he told the young man beside him: "Tang Feng, go find the familiar Jin Linwei, and find out the way of Zhen Fusi. I want to find out what Juan Wen is because of What was locked in the imperial prison!"

"Uncle, don't worry." The boy replied and left in a hurry.

Shao Xilan took a deep breath and stood there for half a moment before turning around and leaving.

Yun Shuo still received congratulations from all the officials at the banquet.He drank a lot of wine today, because he was happy and depressed, depressed and happy, and the two emotions were intertwined, making him just want to get drunk and rest.

When he was drinking to his heart's content, Shao Xilan walked up step by step, holding a wine glass.

He is the second-rank Shangshu. If the rotation is based on his title, he should have come up to respect the emperor's wine, but today's banquet is being held by the Ministry of Rites. As the official of the Ministry of Rites, Mr. Shao needs to be busy, so he is late. Also, within reason, the emperor would not blame him.

"Your Majesty, the old minister respects you. May you and Princess Han get married as soon as possible... Hehe, a happy marriage for a hundred years." Shao Xilan said, kneeling respectfully in front of Yun Shuo.

When he knelt down, the princes and ministers next to him looked sideways—it was just a toast, and no one knelt down. What does Shao Xilan mean by doing this?
"Shao Aiqing, get up and talk." Yun Shuo squeezed his wine glass and looked at Shao Xilan with narrowed eyes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I'm still comfortable on my knees." Shao Xilan smiled, but still knelt on the ground and didn't get up, "I'd like to respect you first." As he spoke, he raised his glass and drank a big one. in stomach.

Yun Shuo smiled faintly, but held the wine glass without moving.

Shao Xilan took the jug from the hand of the eunuch next to him and filled himself with wine, then cupped his hands and said, "I have another glass of honor to Your Majesty."

"En." Yun Shuo nodded again, still watching Shao Xilan drinking while he remained motionless.

In this way, Shao Xilan drank three glasses of wine in a row, and everyone around felt that this was abnormal, and those who had a normal relationship with Shao Xilan turned around and hid. He is in a hurry.

Seeing Shao Xilan getting half drunk while talking, Yun Shuo raised his hand and told the eunuch next to him: "Master Shao is drunk, help him down to find a quiet place to wake up."

Before the eunuch next to him responded, Shao Xilan had already kowtowed on the ground: "I thank Your Majesty for your understanding! I can't repay Your Majesty's long favor even if I die!"

"This Shao Xilan, why is he so abnormal today?" Old Cheng Wang stroked his beard and frowned.

Lord Zhen sneered indifferently: "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. I think His Majesty knows it well, so let's not worry about it."

"What the Duke said is true." Old Cheng Wang nodded, and said again: "Today's banquet is almost over, and the emperor's wine is also available. Should we withdraw?"

"What the prince said is true." Lord Zhen also felt that it was not too late, and he would withdraw as soon as possible. The emperor and Shao Xilan must have other matters. If they don't wink, everyone's faces will be ugly.

Duke Zhen stood up and asked to leave, but the emperor did not hold back, he raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, and nodded in agreement.

The eldest princess also got up to leave with her daughter Han Qian. Yun Shuo raised his head to look at Han Qian, smiled slightly, and said, "I really drank too much today, so I won't keep my aunt for tea. Another day, my aunt When you are free, just go to the palace and stroll around."

"Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness. Your Majesty drank a lot of wine and asked someone to serve you some hangover soup. Go and take a rest too. The government is busy, and Your Majesty still needs to take care of your health." The Eldest Princess said, and made another salute, bringing Along with his daughter-in-law, nephew, daughter-in-law and daughter, they also went out of the palace.

As soon as the master left, those who accompanied him to eat, drink and play also retreated one after another.For a while, only Wu Miao and a few other eunuchs, big and small, were left in front of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the Hangover Soup is here." A little eunuch approached with a tray, knelt on the ground respectfully, and raised the tray with both hands.

Yun Shuo glanced at it, waved his hand and said, "Take it away, I'm not drunk."

Wu Miao hurriedly waved to the little eunuch to signal everyone to back off.

Yun Shuo's face collapsed immediately, his gaze swept over Wu Miao's face coldly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Where is Shao Xilan?"

"Return to Your Majesty, Sir Shao is kneeling in the back wing."

"Tell him to kneel first." Yun Shuo said, stood up and walked out.

Wu Miao hurriedly followed without daring to ask further questions.

With a sullen face, Yun Shuo walked out of the Imperial Garden and went straight to the Tuisi Garden.Wu Miao, Qianye and the others followed silently all the way.

Tuisi Garden, when Emperor Jinglong was in power, was the location of the Lenggong. Now Mi Taipin and Princess Jiaying live here to chant scriptures and pray for the late emperor every day, worship Buddha and eat fast, and two other nuns live here every day Daily cleaning turned a cold palace into a quiet courtyard.

Yun Shuo stood in the yard, thinking that this woman was really extraordinary.Others living here would suffer from insanity and self-torture to death, but she can live here so comfortably.He still underestimated her.

Wu Miao watched the emperor's expression carefully, and after getting permission, he yelled, "The emperor is here!"

The women in the rooms on both sides hurried out and knelt on the ground to plead guilty.
