Lu Baichuan tilted his head and explained to He Jiuniang: "This is Prince Jing."
He Jiuniang nodded, glanced at him and looked away. She had no interest in Prince Jing.
"Is there anyone else here?"
Lu Baichuan glanced around: "It seems that only Prince Lin is not here."
"Then did you see the person who took the lead in chasing you that night?"
"No, he didn't come either."
He Jiuniang hummed and said, "It seems that there is something wrong with Prince Lin."
Lu Baichuan had doubts before, so he was not too surprised by today's situation.
All the guests hosted by King Chen arrived, but King Lin was nowhere to be seen, indicating that he was afraid.
A few days before the banquet started, King Chen followed He Jiuniang's request and released the news that she could recognize Lin Yiping. Lin Yiping had seen He Jiuniang's medical skills, so he was too scared to come.
Such is their purpose.
In fact, he could have been lured to the banquet to catch turtles in an urn, but after all, this was the birthday banquet of the little princess. If it was too ugly, it would cause trouble for King Chen. Just by scaring him, he could be caught. Nature is the best.
As for dealing with King Lin, we can only do it in secret.
"Why hasn't fifth brother come yet?"
King Chen also noticed that King Lin was not here and spoke with a smile.
Prince Jing said: "Fifth brother is ill. He said that he could not pass the illness to Xinyue, so he only asked his younger brother to bring congratulatory gifts."
With that said, Prince Jing waved to the little princess, asked her to come over, and then handed her two very exquisite boxes in his hands.
"Thank you Uncle Six and Uncle Five for the gifts!"
The little princess took it happily and couldn't wait to open the small box. One of the boxes contained a beautiful pearl, which was as big as a child's fist and looked very strange.
In another box is a pair of white jade-carved safety locks. The craftsmanship is exquisite and looks particularly good on children.
Prince Jing looked at the cute little princess, showed a rare sincere smile, and asked: "Do you like it?"
"Yeah, I like it!"
Prince Jing sent the little princess away and said a few more words to Prince Chen before he sat down. When he turned around, he deliberately glanced at He Jiuniang, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
In front of others, Prince Jing and Prince Chen were considered brothers and sisters, and their words were quite polite. There was no contradiction at all for a while.
But Lu Baichuan felt that Prince Jing's behavior today was a little unusual, and quietly said to He Jiuniang: "Prince Jing is a little strange. He has never been so good-tempered in the past."
He Jiuniang replied nonchalantly: "Whatever, let's take a look first and then talk."
So far, she has not smelled her special fragrance, which means that Lin Yiping really does not dare to come. In this case, let's see what happens next before making a decision.
Except for Prince Lin, all the other guests came. The host, Prince Chen, stood up and said a few words to congratulate the little princess, and then the banquet continued.
Gradually, the prince and Prince Jing showed some impatience.
They came here today just to see He Jiuniang's so-called ability to recognize people, but there has been no movement. Could it be a lie?
They came here today. Firstly, they wanted to see how capable the people around King Chen were. Secondly, they also wanted to see who King Chen had been feuding with during this period, and maybe they could cooperate with them.
Two new dances were performed, but there was still no movement in the scene. Prince Jing couldn't help it and asked: "Didn't I hear that there are capable people around the third brother? Can you recognize the people wearing masks? Why? There has been no movement? Could it be that Third Brother is deceiving others?"
He just returned the favor to his brother and brother, but he returned to his original state after a while. It seems that Prince Jing is really not good at acting.
He Jiuniang turned her head and complained to Lu Baichuan: "Prince Jing can't keep his temper. His class is too low to accomplish anything big."
Although she has never paid attention to the affairs of the court, she is quite accurate in judging people, but Prince Jing has no brains, and it does not take much ability to see it.
Lu Baichuan nodded in agreement. Just as Prince Jing had been used by Lin Yiping before, and he helped others count their money after being sold, it can be seen that he really didn't have much ability.
He's just a foolhardy man.
King Chen looked at King Jing and asked with a smile: "Is this why the Six Emperors came today?"
"Isn't it? This song and dance is so boring, I just want to see what that capable person is capable of."
As he said that, he looked at He Jiuniang again.
He had heard before that the masked person next to King Cheng was not simple, and now he heard that the masked man's wife was even more difficult. He wanted to see how extraordinary it was.
The prince also stood up and said: "Third brother, there are many capable people around him, and I also want to see them."
King Chen then looked at He Jiuniang. He Jiuniang shook her head slightly, indicating that the person had not come at all.
King Chen replied: "Then it seems that the prince and sixth brother will be disappointed. That person did not dare to come tonight, otherwise I would have treated you to a good show by now."
"Not here? How did you know you weren't here? Isn't it that your so-called ability is just an illusion?"
Prince Jing was quite aggressive, and he looked at He Jiuniang with a hint of disdain.
He just said that a woman can achieve great things, but she is just a pretty vase.
It's okay to keep such a woman in the house for fun, but it's a bit reluctant to take it out and call it a capable person.
He Jiuniang lowered her head and slightly raised the corners of her mouth. The next moment, Prince Jing's mouth was hit by something, and it swelled instantly.
"Ah! Who dares to sneak attack on me!"
Everyone looked at Prince Jing's mouth that instantly swelled into a pig's mouth. Some people couldn't bear to look at it, and some wanted to laugh, but they all suppressed it.
Lu Baichuan sat next to He Jiuniang and saw her movements clearly.
He has always known that his wife is very powerful. If it weren't for his good eyesight just now, he might not have been able to see how she acted.
"This man is really bad-mouthed. He says that I have no ability and that I am just showing up. Let's see if I don't swell his mouth!"
Lu Baichuan smiled fondly and did not stop him.
He also felt that Prince Jing deserved to be slapped for his rudeness. If he hadn't seen that his wife had already taken action just now, he wouldn't have made up for it.
"Who is he? Come out to me! Ah!"
Another hit!
This time it was more severe and painful than before. Prince Jing was speechless. He could only glare at Prince Chen and shouted vaguely: "Sanduoliu is not a short-legged villain?" (Third Brother) Is this how you discipline your servants?)
He Jiuniang struck quickly and accurately. No one except Lu Baichuan even saw clearly what she used to hit Prince Jing. Everyone just saw that Prince Jing's mouth suddenly swelled.
King Chen saw that King Jing's mouth was swollen into two pieces of meat, and it was really not easy for him to speak with a weak body and strong will. He walked forward very anxiously and asked with concern: "What's wrong with my sixth brother? Is this difficult?" Isn’t it because you talk too much that is not nutritious that it becomes like this? Sixth brother, be careful with your words and deeds!”
These words made King Jing roll his eyes in anger. If it weren't for the help of his subordinates behind him, he might be lying on the ground now.
The prince also hurried over in a hurry, and said to King Chen angrily: "It's now time. The third brother should stop saying those words to irritate the sixth brother. It's better to find a doctor quickly. If there is anything good, It’s not easy to explain to my father.”
The prince always showed great concern for these younger brothers. In the eyes of the old emperor, he was a simple and kind-hearted child, so even though he knew that he was incompetent and cowardly, he always kept his position as prince.
In front of so many people, King Chen naturally couldn't leave King Jing alone, so he asked Cheng Meng to ask for the imperial doctor.
