Time soon came to the evening.

Su Lin took Chen Baixing and planned to go to the banquet, but before he left the house, he was stopped by Qi Shimu who came in a hurry.

After being busy with the disaster victims for a day, he got the news from the servants and rushed back without stopping.

This old fox certainly knew the hidden meaning of this. If the prince and Su Lin reconciled, wouldn't he be the most unlucky one caught in the middle?

Now he can only go one way to the end.

So he kept saying in Su Lin's ear that Prince Zhang was not trustworthy, "Brother Su, today is definitely a Hongmen Banquet, you must not go!"

"He is narrow-minded and likes to use conspiracy and tricks. A few years ago, a martial arts master met with an unexpected accident. These are bloody examples in front of us!"

At this moment, Qi Shimu was almost as anxious as a monkey, scratching his ears and cheeks, wishing to grab Su Lin's hand.

Who can't see his thoughts? Su Lin certainly understood the deep meaning.

But I just said I was going to the banquet, but I didn't say I agreed to reconcile. This was just my own guess.

Qi Shimu now thought that he would be safe if he was tied to Su Lin, so he was naturally reluctant to leave this amulet.

Su Lin simply told the truth, "I just know that he has many conspiracies and tricks, so I want to see him."

"Do you think he will really reconcile with me? It's just a delaying tactic!"

After listening to Su Lin's words, Qi Shimu fell into deep thought, and his expression was obvious, as if he was thinking: Yes! Why didn't I think of this?

In terms of understanding Prince Zhang, of course, I am much better than Su Lin. After all, the two have been in the officialdom for many years and are in Lincheng, so they can't do without interpersonal exchanges.

He nodded with relief, "Brother Su is still thoughtful, but you have to be careful when you play."

"I think, we should send more people to protect you, why not let my guards follow you secretly?"

Hearing this, Su Lin hurriedly refused. If he went there empty-handed, Zhang would still treat him with a smile, but if he brought so many people, he might think that he was going to destroy him.

At that time, there would be a fight, which would be fine for him, but the people in the city would be unlucky.

But perhaps because he was worried, Qi Shimu's eyes rolled around and he immediately proposed again.

"How about letting Zhen'er accompany you? She is a smart child and has a little understanding of official affairs. As your help, she should be useful."

Isn't this clearly arranging an eyeliner? In such an occasion, is Qi Zhenzhen still needed?

But fortunately, Qi Zhenzhen and his father don't get along at all, and the two are not as close as imagined, so it's okay.

In order to avoid trouble, Su Lin nodded in agreement.

But the three of them had just walked out of the Qi Mansion not far when they were called by another voice.

Su Lin sighed helplessly. He knew it was Banqiu without thinking. This girl must be upset when she saw Qi Zhenzhen following behind her.

Helplessly, Su Lin could only nod and agree to let her follow.

I really don’t know whether she brought a helper or a burden. I’m afraid that it will distract me and cause more trouble.

At this moment, the Prince’s Mansion was solemn and solemn, but it seemed unusually deserted.

Since Su Lin made trouble at the wedding last time, everyone in Lincheng now knows that this prince is out of date and can’t be suppressed at all with his power.

Therefore, all the rich and famous people turned to Qi Shimu, and his Qi Mansion was crowded with people. Every day, people with gifts could be seen visiting.

At this moment, there were three people standing at the door of the Prince’s Mansion, two of whom were guarding the door, and one was the master of ceremonies at the last wedding.

His exact identity was the butler of the Prince’s Mansion, named Wang Gui.

"Guest Su is here, please come this way."

He acted very politely, as if there had been no disputes or frictions between the two families.

The servants in the palace also asked questions when they saw Su Lin. It was obvious that they had made special instructions to leave a good impression on him?

It was obviously useless. Prince Zhang's actions had already explained everything.

But until he came to the door of the living room, Su Lin did not see the shadow of Prince Zhang, which made him puzzled.

Since it was to show politeness, wouldn't it be more solemn to go out in person than to be received by the butler? It was clearly agreed to have dinner in the evening, but now it was time, he disappeared.

Seeing the displeasure on Su Lin's face, the butler on the side panicked and hurriedly explained: "Guest Su, please don't blame me. My master said that he would prepare a special dish for you. He rode a horse to the suburbs at noon. I guess he should be back soon, right? The kitchen has prepared the other dishes. Please take a seat first."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Su Lin expressed interest.

Unexpectedly, Prince Zhang actually wanted to cook by himself. Ordinary people could not eat it, so he was very curious.

So he did not blame them, and took Qi Zhenzhen and others to sit down. Seeing the dishes on the table, Chen Baixing was drooling.

He could not help it first, and drank a jar of good wine.

As for Su Lin, Qi Zhenzhen and Banqiu, they would not do so. They had to pay attention to their posture, otherwise, wouldn't they make fun of Zhang?

Not long after waiting, he heard the servants shouting from outside: "The master is back!"

Then, he heard the sound of horse hooves. Prince Zhang actually rode a tall horse and came directly outside the hall.

He had a bow and arrow on his back, one hand holding the reins, and the other holding a bloody package.

Seeing that Su Lin and the others had arrived, he laughed: "I'm sorry for not welcoming you, distinguished guests! I've prepared a delicious dish for you!"

Speaking of this, he threw the package to the butler beside him, "Tell the kitchen to make it well for me. If it doesn't taste good, watch out for their lives."

Hearing this, Su Lin was very disdainful. This guy completely regarded his subordinates as tools.

Is this the one in power?

Then, Prince Zhang patted the dust off his body, walked to the opposite side of Su Lin's table, clasped his fists and said: "Brother Su, I'm so sorry, I didn't expect that this thing would be so hard to find. I wasted an afternoon."

At this moment, he no longer had the arrogance he had before.

This even made Qi Zhenzhen doubt her eyes. She rubbed them before opening them, because Prince Zhang at this moment seemed like a different person. It was as if he had met his own brother?

That is, the king sitting on the dragon throne in the capital.

"Hmph, then I'm going to scold you, Your Highness. You invited me to dinner, but you were late. Isn't that inappropriate?"

Su Lin didn't give him any face at all, just wanted to test the attitude of Prince Zhang.

So he snatched the wine jar from Chen Baixing's hand, took the bowl directly, filled it up, and put it in front of him, "How about three cups of wine as punishment?"
