Chapter 269
The prince is here?
Wang Xiao was indeed a little surprised, but then he thought about it but understood.
The Eastern Palace gave a banquet on behalf of the emperor. If you don’t show up, it would be too inappropriate in His Majesty’s eyes.
It was precisely because he was coming that he deliberately released a rumor that he could not get sick in the Eastern Palace. This is probably what is called "reality is weak", and weakness is solid."
The question is, has the second brother calculated this step?
Wang Xiao turned his head and looked at Wang Zhu, but saw that Wang Zhu's face was calm and he could not see any clues.
The skill of nourishing qi is very good.
Wang Zhen looked up at the sky, saying that he wanted to rush back to the Wang Family Ancestral Hall for evening sacrifice, and also told his younger brothers not to neglect the guests.
A gentle and honest look.
Wang Xiao was very whispering in his heart, brother, aren’t you going to run away?
The princess's mansion was going to set up an incense table to prepare for the order, but Wang Xiao was arranged to change his clothes.
He took off the grand court uniforms used to worship the temple in the morning, and he changed into auspicious clothes, and he had a python belt around his waist.
Only when you put it on something that symbolizes your identity can you feel the honor.
After tied up the python-patterned jade belt, the boy couldn't help but laugh at himself: "In comparison, what is Gui..."
"Guo? What is it?" someone asked suddenly.
Wang Xiao was shocked: "How can you... peek at me changing my clothes?!"
"Go to you. Isn't there many people elsewhere?" Qin Xiaozhu glanced at him with a bright look and said, "I've been taller and I've been thinner."
Wang Xiao's eyes also swept her, and said, "You are a little plump."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Qin Xiaozhu was quite angry and came forward to act and wanted to fight.
Wang Xiao quickly said, "I'm joking about you, I want to say that you... are pure, pure."
"You know whether I am idle or not."
The two of them hadn't seen each other for some time, but they found the familiarity of each other in a few words and jokingly made a few words.
"As soon as Qin Xiaozhu came out of Shanhaiguan, he was another hero."
"Ha, it's the same as coming out of jail..."
After a while, Wang Xiao thought about his thoughts and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Do you understand the prince? What's his scheming?"
Qin Xiaozhu said: "I don't know much, I just heard Chunning say that it seems like something like "The East Palace used to be very ambitious, but I didn't expect to lose my ambition in three or four years."
While speaking, the ritual official was already urging Wang Xiao outside the door.
Qin Xiaozhu was not too stupid, so he said, "I'll come to play with you and Chunning tonight." He turned over the beam and disappeared.
Wang Xiao was quite speechless.
What to play...
Wang Xiao led Wang Zhu and Su Mingxuan to meet him. He saw a group of eunuchs and guards arching a man in a grand crown garment and passing through the princess's mansion. It must be Zhou Zhao. His face was pale and his eyes were distracted, and he seemed to be seriously ill.
After receiving the incense table, the little yellow party read out the order. The content was mostly about His Majesty and praised the Wang family in public, mainly for Wang Xiao's father and brother who could teach this child with good character and kind heart. He also praised Wang Xiao for going to the Imperial College for studying after marriage, which is the practice of this dynasty.
Then the empress dowager's decree was issued by the empress dowager, focusing on praising her eldest sister-in-law Tao Wenjun for her family during the "severe illness" of Cui, so that she would not forget her kindness in raising her horse.
No one cares how hard Tao Wenjun and Cui fought against each other behind this imperial edict. In the joyfulness, Wang Xiao received the imperial edict with a sad face.
I have to go to the Imperial College for study?! It would be better for my second brother to kill this annoying prince today.
Isn’t it happier to follow Qianqian to rebel?
After reading the imperial edict, Prince Zhou Zhao led him into the main hall to rest by Wang Kang, and also followed a team of personal guards in.
Be cautious about your own life safety.
This made Wang Xiao feel a little confused.
"Master Ma." Suddenly someone said hello.
Wang Xiao turned around and saw that the man who greeted him had a handsome middle-aged face very familiar.
Isn’t this the one Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple who falsely accused him during the imperial trial? What’s the name... Wen Rongxin.
Have I sent you a wedding invitation? Come on.
With a heart-warming smile on Wang Xiao's face, he said with a hurry: "Mr. Wen."
It seems to be a very close friend.
"Don't call him this. The lower official just came with his brother to watch the ceremony today." Wen Rongxin smiled and said, "This is his brother Rong Xiu, who is the secretary of the Eastern Palace, and he comes with His Royal Highness the Prince."
"Master Wen." Wang Xiao then practiced rituals to Wen Rong again.
"These two are my brothers." When Wang Xiao heard the Eastern Palace Secretary, he was too lazy to introduce them carefully, so he vaguely passed by and sighed: "My cousin came from Huguang specially."
I have seen each other, and they are all like a spring breeze, a harmonious atmosphere, and the atmosphere is extremely harmonious.
"Do you two Lords Wen want to eat jerky?"
"Haha, don't even want to get some snacks and get rid of the guests. The officials are still waiting to eat the delicacies on the mat..."
"You two adults might as well eat some walnut kernels," Su Mingxuan handed over two packs of walnut kernels to the Wen brothers, and smiled, "Let's just put some belly first. I'll arrange a seat for the two adults."
The walnut kernels were actually a bit delicious when they were in the mouth. Wen Rong raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "This cousin, Fuma, is also a person who knows how to eat."
Wang Xiao also looked at Su Mingxuan with some admiration.
He is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is also in the same interests as himself.
Then don’t think about going back to Huguang.
While talking and laughing, Wang Xiao looked at Wang Zhu inadvertently, but he saw that he was still calm and didn't even look at the main hall where Zhou Zhao was.
Wang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.
However, his little move fell into Wen Rongxin's eyes...
At this time, the four men stood together, each holding some information, but they were not comprehensive. It seemed like a card game, and each of them looked at the killer moves in their hands, wondering what trump card the opponent had.
I don’t know the true face of Mount Lu, but I am only in this mountain.
The atmosphere was very good and there was a festive atmosphere. But under the calm calmness, the bet of this card game was their lifelong life and future.
Wang Zhu and Wen Rongxiu joked for a few more times, their eyes calm.
Secretary of the Eastern Palace? Your prince is my prey. You set up a suspicion array to make Zhou Zhao call him sick, but I know he will come. Do you know? There is a secret passage under the main hall...
Wen Rongxin looked at Wang Zhu's calm face, raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.
Wang Zhu, you are destined to lose to me. It’s not because of wisdom, but because of each other’s level. Unfortunately, for more than three years, you haven’t known that I’m staring at you…
Wang Xiao looked at Wen Rongxin's burning gaze and was shocked.
This Lord Wen stared at his second brother like this, he wouldn't like him...
"Let's go, it's time to go to worship the prince." Wen Rongxiu smiled,
Since the noise has passed, I have finished eating a small bag of walnut kernels in my hand, and it’s time to do the job.
"Okay." Wang Zhu nodded and tidyed up her clothes.
Wen Rongxin reached out and picked a small walnut kernel from Wen Rongxiu's beard and said lightly: "Brother can even put some food in his beard. What kind of morality will it be when he meets the prince?"
When Wang Xiao saw Wen Rongxin's expression, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, his expression and tone were too similar to his second brother...
The next moment, many thoughts in his mind suddenly exploded.
"Zheng Yuanhua has the heart of regent."
"The East Palace was very ambitious before, but I didn't expect that I would lose my ambition in three or four years."
"I only see him failing."
"Please choose a horse? Wang Zhu is such a powerful method."
Secretary of the East Palace, Zuo Shaoqing of Taili Temple...
They actually know?!
They actually knew who the murderer of the prince was, and they had deliberately caused him but did not issue him for so many years...
