I heard you have nine tails

Chen Jiming's sudden return to Beijing made some people who fished in troubled waters and attacked the prince settle down quickly.

Emperor Jinghe also had to take off his Taoist uniform and crown, and put on a dragon robe. It was even more rare that he walked into the Kunning Palace to discuss with Empress Xu how to hold a banquet in the palace to entertain the Chen family.

Chen Jiming had been away from Beijing for several years, but this time he turned back and put on his posture again.He entered the capital aggressively from the east gate, no doubt because Emperor Jing He doted on the third prince and ignored the eldest son's warning; he was reminding the group of bullying and forgetful people in the capital that the current Crown Prince, Li Lin, has never been a father Poor little doting mother who has passed away.He also has a strong mother's family as support, so he doesn't need to act according to people's faces.

The banquet was held in the Imperial Garden and hosted by Empress Xu herself.

In theory, it is enough to have King Hedi, Empress Xu and the prince as companions.However, Emperor Jinghe wanted to ease the relationship with this uncle, and finally remembered his sons who had been forgotten by him for a long time, so he announced that the reception banquet would be held as a family banquet, and asked the other three princes to come to accompany him.When the prince came, the prince's mother and concubine naturally also got it.So they only entertained the Chen family, but set up two banquet tables, one for men and the other for women, far apart.

If anyone in the whole banquet held his breath the most, it would be Concubine Hui.The mother's family was deprived of the name of the imperial merchant by the crown prince. Except for Yao Xinhong, the remaining two were completely deprived of official status, but she still had to sit here and smile at the crown prince's mother's family.However, just now, she showed some displeasure on her face, and she was scolded by Empress Xu: "What's wrong with Concubine Hui today? If you feel any discomfort, just tell me, I will naturally allow you to go back and rest earlier."

Concubine Hui's lips twitched, cursing silently.The concubine on the side was as safe and careful as ever, and the new Miss Wu family accompanied her mother-in-law with a decent smile.Naturally, it is impossible for the Yao family to help with the conversation.Concubine Hui could only swallow her anger and reply, "I'm not feeling well."

"That's good." Empress Xu would not allow such an important family banquet to go wrong, she turned her head and asked in a pleasant manner: "Yue'e, does this dish suit your taste?"

"The delicacies in the palace are really different from the way in the south. Madam, you have to worry about it." The girl smiled softly and delicately, and the wife and Queen Xu on the side both showed satisfied smiles.Although the other two girls beside her were also smiling, they left neat tooth marks on their lower lips.

Chen Jiming didn't go back to Beijing alone. Apart from the [-] accompanying soldiers, he also brought his family back.Chen Jiming's first wife has one son and two daughters.In addition, he has three concubines, three concubine sons and one concubine daughter.This time entering the palace, the concubine's room was naturally missed, only the children were brought here.

For the male customers, there are already ten people at a small table.Li Lin was sitting on the left hand side of Jing Hedi, and the three princes were his hands.Chen Jiming was on Jing Hedi's right hand, and his children were his offenders, exactly four of them.

Li Lin first looked at Chen Jiming.He may not have seen this uncle for a long time.Chen Jiming is seven feet tall and has a dignified appearance, with a pair of eagle eyes that are breathtaking.It is said that his nephew, Uncle Xiao, Li Lin looked at him, trying to find the outline of Empress Chen from Chen Jiming's face, but he just sighed.

When Li Lin looked at Chen Jiming, Chen Jiming was also looking at Li Lin. The 20-year-old Li Lin is tall and decisive, and the most rare thing is that he has clear eyes, without arrogance, and without the slightest frivolity or impetuosity.Chen Jiming also looked more and more satisfied.In comparison, the second prince has flaws and his reputation is not obvious.The third prince was too impatient.The fourth prince is too young.Each has its own shortcomings.

Li Lin didn't like being stared at, especially with such sharp eyes.He swept it down.The closest one is Chen Jiming's legitimate son.This young man called Chen Zhong looked more like his mother, reticent and introverted, sitting there peacefully, but it was inevitable that his hands were restrained.Beside him is Chen Jiming's eldest son, Chen Geng, who is obviously talented, but looks a lot older than his younger brother.He is also the one who resembles Chen Jiming the most among the brothers, with a hulking back and a torch-like gaze.The other two cousins, because they are too young, have nothing to see.

Jing Hedi chattered a few words and asked Li Lin to toast Chen Jiming.Li Lin is as good as others.After Chen Jiming entered Beijing, he behaved well and never sent a letter to the East Palace in private.Li Lin felt a little relieved in his heart.He got up, and when the waiter stepped forward to pour the wine, Li Lin whispered to Deshan: "Tan Chang is optimistic?"

"Sister Jinse is with you." Deshan's lips twitched slightly, and his voice was unrecognizable.

Li Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and raised his cup to meet Chen Jiming.It would be impolite to bring a pet to the banquet, and his selfishness made him not want to expose Tan Chang to his father, but he didn't expect others to be outside, but he was still worried about whether Tan Chang would be bored or whether something would happen to him.

Chen Jiming picked up the wine toasted by His Royal Highness, and drank it down without leaving a drop.

Jing and Emperor Li Zheng were rarely in high spirits, so he shouted "Hello" and began to drink with great interest.He missed the late Empress Chen endlessly, and he also got a little close to the general's brother-in-law in a defensive way, and there was also a little bit of envy in the closeness.

Chen Jiming would rather have a private chat with the prince's nephew, but the emperor wanted to be close, so naturally he couldn't easily refuse.

"Yi En, when do you plan to stay in Beijing this time and go back?" Emperor Jing He called Chen Jiming's name affectionately and asked with a smile.However, Chen Jiming and Li Lin suddenly raised their guard. Chen Jiming put down the bowl and chopsticks, and replied, "Go back to Your Majesty, I want to wait until... the anniversary of my mother's death is over before leaving."

Not long after, it will be the death day of Empress Chen.Mentioning this, Jing and Di paused, and their tentative thoughts faded away. "It's not easy to come back, so let's stay a little longer."

Chen Jiming quickly thanked him.

Emperor Jinghe pulled him to talk about the past, and gradually became speechless, so he pointed to the second prince Li Yun and said, "This is Erlang, he has grown so old in a blink of an eye, and he just got married a few days ago."

"This is a good thing, congratulations, Your Majesty." Chen Jiming said this, but glanced at Li Lin inexplicably.

Only then did Jing Hedi realize that what he had said was smooth, and the prince was not married yet.The atmosphere was tense, and Jing and Emperor couldn't think of any topic for a while, but Li Lin took it up logically: "Are all the cousins ​​married?"

Chen Jiming smiled, "Not at all, Da Lang is the only one among their brothers who has kissed."

Once the conversation about the children was started, the topic continued naturally.After asking about his son, Emperor Jinghe naturally asked about his daughter, "Where are your three daughters, are you allowed?"

"The land of the southern barbarians, there is no one to look at." Chen Jiming sighed pretending to be disappointed, "Madam is also worried, so this time I brought the children to Beijing, and I also want to make an early marriage."

"The hearts of the parents in the world are exactly the reason." Emperor Jing He stopped at this point and changed the topic to the situation in the Southwest.

After drinking and eating, and sitting with him for a while, Li Lin took Deshan out to get some air as an excuse to relieve himself.Li Lin hurried towards the Xianyang Palace, gasping for breath and calming down his alcohol, he said, "No, Gu is still worried, why don't you go back and have a look?"

Deshan had to trot all the way to keep up with Li Lin's pace. He asked puzzledly, "What are you worried about, Your Highness?"

"Lonely..." Li Lin hesitated to speak.He couldn't tell, but after knowing Tan Chang's identity, he was always worried that someone with ulterior motives would plot against Tan Chang.He wished he could watch Tan Chang all the time, even before going to the court meeting, he had to repeatedly instruct him, leaving Deshan, Jinse and Cassia to watch.This time Li Lin came out with Deshan, and Jue Ming was also secretly protecting him, leaving Tan Chang alone in Xianyang Palace, Li Lin felt uneasy no matter what.

While Li Lin was worried, Tan Chang was looking around in the dark bushes.

He was very curious about Li Lin's general uncle, and he hadn't gone out at night for a long time since he returned to the palace, so he couldn't hold it back at all, so he couldn't help but sneak out after reading the book for a while.

Jinse also blocked her, but she couldn't keep up with the little master's reaction speed, so she had to compromise, in exchange for Tan Chang to let her follow honestly.

The little fox ran briskly through the grass, its flaming fur gleaming.

"Ah!" A low exclamation surprised Tan Chang and Jinse who followed closely at the same time.

It turned out that there was a young girl standing by the tree, looking up at the moon, walking forward slowly, defenseless, almost bumping into someone.

"I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! The daughter of the people, Mrs. Chen, was rude, please make amends, Your Highness!" Yue'e covered her mouth tightly after a low cry, and quickly squatted down to salute after seeing the person's attire.

"How do you know Gu is the crown prince?" Li Lin's tone was chilling.Chen Jiming has two prostitutes, and it is difficult to tell which one they are.However, to Li Lin's disappointment, this girl was far from the face of her mother in memory.

"Minister... I heard Jia Yan mention that His Highness is not the second prince at his age." Yue'e blushed, but secretly glanced at Li Lin's face.The second prince has limited mobility, this person should be the prince's cousin.

Ordinarily, the two are cousins, but it's a pity that Li Lin has no intention of getting close. After asking, he just put his hands behind his back, nodded, and said, "Why isn't Miss Chen's servant here? Deshan, send her back to the banquet."

Yue'e originally got rid of the maid and wanted to be alone.There is a "month" in her name, and she likes the moon by nature.Hearing Li Lin's concerned words, the blush on her shy face became more and more obvious.

The girl stood under the moonlight, and Tan Chang could clearly see the blush on her face.Hearing that Li Lin said he wanted Deshan to send her off, Tan Chang almost jumped up to question her, but was quietly held down by Jinse. "Shh, don't move."

Jinse knew that the fox was quite spiritual, and was afraid that he would not listen to her, so she explained in a low voice: "This is General Chen's daughter, His Highness's cousin, maybe she will be the future princess."

Tan Chang didn't care, he only knew that Li Lin left him in the palace, but ran up to make friends with other girls!When I went back to Huaiyang last time, Li Lin went out alone, and came back with a catkin. When he was sick, he was affectionate, and finally sent him away. Now that he came back to the banquet, did he have to directly toss out a princess?

Hearing Jinse's words, Tan Chang became more and more irritable, but seeing that the girl did not leave, he boldly asked, "Why is Your Highness here?"

"Lonely..." Li Lin had just opened his mouth when he saw a flash of red light, and a certain little fox that was supposed to be kept safely in Xianyang Palace suddenly flew over and slapped him head-on.

Tan Chang slapped Li Lin's forehead with his paw, and that's not counting. He flicked on a branch, and swung his tail up again.

The little fox took care to put away his sharp claws, Li Lin was fine, but how could Yue'e have seen such a scene, she was about to let out a scream.Deshan quickly said: "Girl, don't be afraid! This is His Highness's pet!" He said, looking at Li Lin, eager for Li Lin to say a few words of comfort.But when Li Lin saw Tan Chang appearing suddenly, he couldn't care about the cousin he met by chance.

"How will you be here?"

If I wasn't here, how would I know that you're flirting with another girl again!close!Almost!

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Deshan looked at the little fox rushing up aggressively, and then at his Highness's embarrassed expression and his attitude of being low-key, his neck felt cold, and a thought of disrespect suddenly arose.

——There was an illusion that his highness had an affair and was caught and raped by the empress of the palace.
