The fake eunuch who lurked in the palace

"Come."

When he arrived at the palace gate, Li Yi got off the carriage first and then stretched out his hand towards Yun Niang.

They arrived not too early, and there were already many carriages placed around them.

"Yun'er."

Wei Qi, who was waiting at the palace gate, saw Yun Niang coming and immediately went to greet her, with Feng Qi following her.

There is no one to bully her, and there is hope for the Wei family's blood feud. Wei Qi's complexion is much better than before.

"How do you think they can talk so much?"

Li Yi looked at the two people stuck together and asked Feng Qi.

Every time Yun Niang and Wei Qi come together, he and Feng Qi will become followers.

Those two women had completely forgotten about having husbands.

Feng Qi shrugged, "You may have to ask your wife, my Qier has always been quiet."

Li Yi tilted his head and said, "You can handle it, Wei Qi Deenjing? You're not tired of eating dumplings, are you?"

Before Li Yi could say anything, he caught a glimpse of the approaching figure from the corner of his eye, and a smile appeared on his face.

Feng Qi noticed something and followed his line of sight.

"Secretary Minister."

Zhou Pan said hello with a smile. Next to him was Hou Zhengbai.

"Major General Zhou, can we have breakfast? Now that we've entered the palace, I'm afraid it will take a while before the banquet begins."

"I still have some food in the carriage, would you like a cushion?" Li Yi said in an easy-going tone.

"I'd like to thank you in advance for your kindness, Mr. Si, but we didn't come here on an empty stomach."

"It's getting late, so let's take the first step."

Zhou Pan nodded towards Li Yi, and there was no fault in the etiquette.

When Hou Zhengbai and Yun Niang passed by each other, he glanced at her, but his heart was not much disturbed. Even if he had some expectations before, from the moment she and Wen Heng left Jian'an, it had nothing to do with him.

Now, because she caused Zhou Gui to be seriously injured, Hou Zhengbai lost his favor even more.

"Personal and distinguished."

Fengqi praised.

"Isn't this the truth?"

Seeing Li Yi looking at him, Feng Qi raised his eyebrows.

"Be careful. The more you are so magnanimous and approachable, the more dangerous you are."

"The brotherhood between him and Zhou Gui is quite close."

"If you beat Zhou Gui like that, he can't possibly pretend that nothing happened."

"I'm just holding back for now." Feng Qi whispered.

He had mentioned to Si Jian before that Zhou Pan had a calm temperament and was not easy to attack. If he wanted to drive a wedge between the Zhou family and the emperor, it would be best to use Zhou Gui as the lead.

But what people didn't expect was that Zhou Gui would be so eager to seek death.

Although there were some deviations from the expected plan, fortunately, the results did not change much. The emperor had lost trust in the Zhou family under Si Jian's slander.

The only trouble is that Si Jian is hated by the Zhou family.

"You are such a generous man, Major General Zhou. How can you worry about that? You are so narrow-minded."

Li Yi shook his head and clicked his tongue twice.

Feng Qi rolled his eyes, his worries were in vain, this man was cunning.

Whoever looked at the tone of his conversation with Zhou Pan would not have thought that the two people had a close relationship.

Yun Niang and Wei Qi came over. They were watching the scene just now.

"If you don't look at the front, I still think of you as one of your close colleagues."

"They were talking and laughing." Yun Niang came to Li Yi's side and opened his mouth lightly.

Li Yi took Yun Niang's hand and walked leisurely towards the palace gate, "Isn't that what officialdom is like? People who are a bit of a city official, no matter how hostile they are in private, they appear to be harmonious on the surface."

"For example, our Lord Feng, look at who he has blushed with, he looks gentle and elegant, but in his heart, looking at those people, he doesn't know how to gnash his teeth."

"I'm afraid I would even dream of taking a bite."

"You have no thoughts and are full of tricks. Don't involve me." Feng Qi tilted his head at Li Yi and said something.

"Hey, I'm scheming?"

Yun Niang and Wei Qi looked at the two people who were arguing and looked at each other, both laughing.

"Oh no, why is my wife missing?"

After walking for a while, Li Yi looked around and found that Yun Niang was gone.

Feng Qi discovered that Wei Qi was also missing.

"be lost?"

"Aren't we both walking fast?"

"This is really..."

Li Yi patted his head and said, "For the sake of winning, I actually lost my wife."

This is a modern thing. You have to kneel on the washboard when you go home.

Li Yi waved and called the eunuch on the side over.

"What? Went to the queen's house?"

"I didn't even say hello."

Li Yi muttered, but didn't think about it. At that moment, he and Feng Qi only had eyes for each other, who could get in.

Due to the large number of people this time, the seats for men and women were separated.

To avoid being hit.

Father Sheng was busy with important matters in the household department, so he did not show up until the banquet was about to begin.

After everyone was seated, the emperor came over surrounded by his concubines and eunuchs.

"No need to be polite."

"Today, I just want to have fun with you."

"Treat it like a family dinner."

The emperor sat down at the top and said loudly, his attitude was extremely easy-going.

Among the hundreds of officials, most of them agreed with the emperor, and some laughed and patted Rainbow Fart.

Just as Li Yi thought, it was obviously his birthday, but it was treated like a commendation party.

The emperor was also thick-skinned, and he didn't show any modesty.

The things he did always enriched the pockets of corrupt officials and tightened the belts of the people. If the people didn't spit on him, it would be fine, so why should he praise his virtues?

Li Yi lowered his eyes. This scene was so beautiful that he couldn't watch it.

In the past, emperors kept everything simple in order to use the emperor to show that he was a diligent and caring king who did not like paving the way and worked hard to govern.

But after the mask is torn off, the way will definitely not be the same as before.

If the emperor's throne is not stable, how can he care about those stupid people?

The emperor's current energy is mainly used to suppress the Supreme Emperor. He wants the Supreme Emperor to see clearly who the officials want in their hearts.

Only he can make them bow!

With the emperor's cooperation, the atmosphere became even higher.

Everyone drank a cup and I drank a cup. It was really harmonious, and the king and his ministers were enjoying themselves together.

Li Yi took a sip of wine and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, the taste was very familiar.

Nowadays, if the wine used in upper-level banquets does not come from Zuixianfang, it will be looked down upon.

It looks like the price can be raised again.

Li Yi tapped his thigh with his fingers, mentally calculating how much money he would earn.

These people are so righteous. They know that the cadres are developing and money is in short supply, so they rush to support them one by one.

In the future, if he had to attack the city, Li Yi must throw more gunpowder to reduce their time of fear.

"Jian'er, don't just drink for yourself."

Seeing that Li Yi was acting like an outsider, Father Sheng reminded him.

Jian'er is favored by the emperor, there are quite a few people staring at him at this table, his lazy posture will inevitably not be made a fuss about.

The emperor is no longer as magnanimous as before, and a little provocation can make him suspicious.

Jian'er has already hated the Supreme Emperor. If he loses the Emperor's heart again, how can he continue to stay in the court.

Li Yi smiled at Father Sheng, raised his glass, and prepared to say something.

But before he could slap the rainbow fart, Yu Shi Zhongcheng stood up.
