Seeing that he was still thinking about the banquet, Niu Dashan had no choice but to take the porcelain bowl, scooped up a small spoonful of bird's nest and moved it to his mouth: "Open your mouth."

Duan Hongjing was speechless, drank the spoonful of bird's nest, grabbed the spoon: "I can do it myself."

"After drinking, think about it."

Duan Hongjing rolled his eyes, but he didn't refute, and started feeding spoonfuls into his mouth casually.

Thoughts can't help but drift away.

In the previous life, the second elder brother seemed to be rejected by his father after attending Duan Honghui's banquet.He was still immersed in the pain of losing his son at the time, so he didn't participate at all.

Among them, Duan Honghui must have done something.

Is this time...

The setting sun slanted, and the broad stone roads in the inner city were covered with golden light.

The horseshoe tapped lightly, and the lanterns with the words "Second Prince's Mansion" written on them hung on both sides.

Duan Hongyu sat in the car and closed his eyes to rest.

Suddenly, An Fu, an attendant outside, knocked on the door of the carriage lightly: "Your Highness, there seems to be the carriage of His Highness Fifth Highness ahead."

Duan Hongyu opened his eyes: "Fifth Brother?" He opened the curtain and looked out, and the carriage parked at the intersection was indeed the carriage of the Fifth Prince's Mansion.

Seemingly hearing the movement here, Niu Dashan got off his horse and said a few words to the car.

Duan Hongjing in the car immediately opened the curtain and got out.

Niu Dashan helped him get off the carriage slowly.

When Duan Hongyu's carriage approached and stopped, Duan Hongjing walked over briskly, pulled up the hem of his clothes and climbed up.

Duan Hongyu in the car was taken aback, and quickly leaned out to help him: "Be careful, don't you know your physical condition?"

"It's okay, Daniel is watching."

Duan Hongyu looked up, and Niu Dashan, who was holding Duan Hongjing's waist to help him get into the car, nodded to him: "Second Highness."

"Master Niu."

"Da Niu, bring the carriage and follow me. I'll talk to my second brother." Duan Hongjing got into the car and sat down, then poked his head out and ordered.

Niu Dashan nodded, cupped his hands towards Duan Hongyu, strode back, got on his horse, let the carriage of the Second Prince's Mansion go first, and he followed.

"When I arrive at Honghui's mansion later, I can chat, why did you come here?" Duan Hongyu laughed at him, "Didn't you see your big cow with a straight face?"

"Come on, he has always been so stern, you can see his strength from his face." Duan Hongjing bluntly belittled himself as a big bull, not at all worried about being listened to by someone with strong martial arts outside arrive.

Turning the subject around, he asked directly, "Brother, how many people did you bring? Did the eunuch, the eunuch, bring Anfu?"

Duan Hongyu replied with a good temper: "Well, the gathering of our brothers doesn't need any ostentation. Even if you are drunk, peace and happiness are enough."

Duan Hongjing frowned immediately: "What about the guards?"

"There are four outside, um, there is also a coachman." Duan Hongyu joked, "Why, are you going to fight with Honghui again tonight? Are you trying to gather the number?"

Duan Hongjing was speechless: "Brother, I'm telling you the truth."

"Cough, you say."

"Be careful at night, and keep Anfu close at every step. I guess Honghui is going to mess around tonight."

Duan Hongyu was surprised: "This kind of banquet is eaten several times a month, why is it different today?"

"Oh brother, don't worry about why it's different. Anyway, it's right to listen to me, and it's not a big mistake to be careful. Now there are only five of us as adult princes. The eldest brother is not good enough. The third brother has no ambitions. I know it all over the court. Broken sleeve." He had a serious face, "Only you and fourth brother are left."

"Well. I know that."

Duan Hongjing shook his head: "No, you don't really understand Fourth Brother."

Duan Hongyu sat up straight: "How do you say this? I know that the fourth child is gentle and courteous on the surface, but he is irritable and irritable on the inside. But he has always concealed it very well. He absolutely dare not mess with this kind of banquet. Father Keep an eye on it." After thinking for a while, he added, "Besides, he doesn't have that kind of scheming, so he can't do much."

"Brother, don't forget, Concubine Duan is standing behind him." Duan Hongjing reminded.

"They have been fighting openly and secretly for so many years. They dare to make some small moves that are not on the table." Duan Hongyu's tone was steady, without any panic.

"I'm just worried that they will do something small tonight." Duan Hongjing narrowed his eyes, "Maybe they put drugs in your wine and asked you to do something."

Duan Hongyu nodded: "Don't worry, I will pay attention." He raised his hand and patted his head, "Don't worry too much, just take care of it."

Seeing that he still wanted to say something, Duan Hongyu hurriedly continued, "I will definitely not let An Fu leave my side. My brother will hang out with you today."

Duan Hongjing just gave up.

Not long after, the group arrived at the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

Although the sky is getting darker, but the winter days are short, it is actually still early at this moment.

The gate of the Fourth Prince's Mansion was open, and two rows of lanterns were hung high, illuminating the road at the gate.

Seeing their carriage approaching, Qing Xiang, the chief eunuch of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, hurried up to greet them.

An Fu jumped out of the car and turned around to help Duan Hongyu get off.

Niu Dashan supported Duan Hongjing on the other side.

"The Second Highness is safe, and the Fifth Highness is safe. You are expected to come. The First Highness and the Third Highness are here, and they are waiting for you two."

Duan Hongjing didn't like to hear these words: "What did you say, you old man? Did you say we were late? The hour on the invitation has not arrived yet."

Duan Hongyu also frowned and glanced at him.

Seeing that he offended this ancestor, Qing Xiang hastily bent over, and pretended to slap himself lightly: "Hey, slaves should be damned, all slaves can't speak. No, it's because our master is looking forward to you, so slaves Just hurry up, isn’t it just a wrong thing to say.”

Duan Hongjing snorted and stopped mentioning this.

Qingxiang breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw Niu Dashan standing beside Duan Hongjing, he paused: "This is Mr. Niu?"

However, how did this ancestor bring him here?Isn't this the prince's banquet?

Niu Dashan nodded.

"Hey, I've admired Mr. Niu's virtue for a long time! Qingxiang greets you." Qingxiang saluted.

"Well, no need to be polite."

When Duan Hongjing saw that he was being polite to his boss, his face immediately looked better.

"Okay, thank you, Sir Niu." Qing Xiang stood up straight, stole a glance at the little ancestor out of the corner of his eye, saw that his face was slightly pale, and exhaled.

Fortunately, I didn't politely persuade people to go out just now, otherwise this ancestor would definitely blow up.

It's not afraid to make trouble, but don't spoil the master's important affairs.

Qingxiang wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Duan Hongyu saw that he had greeted him, and said directly: "Lead the way."

"Hey." Qingxiang led them in, and introduced them as he walked, "Today, our master set up a banquet in the flower hall in the garden. The garden is full of lanterns, and in addition to the fact that it has been sunny and snowless these days, this lantern Ah, it looks really beautiful like a flower..."

When Duan Hongjing heard that the banquet was held in the garden near the courtyard of the women's family, he felt a sudden shock in his heart and turned to look at Duan Hongyu.

Duan Hongyu probably realized it too, raised his hand to pat him on the head, and said softly, "Don't worry."

Seeing that he was on guard, Duan Hongjing felt a little relieved.

Niu Dashan, who was at the back, took a long legged step, walked up to him, and helped him to slow down two steps.

Duan Hongyu and Duan Hongjing stopped and looked at him puzzled.

The rest of the people also stopped, bewildered.

Niu Dashan looked calm: "Second Highness, take a step ahead. As Xiao Jing, as a younger brother, it's better not to go along with him." But he firmly held Duan Hongjing's shoulder with his hand.

Duan Hongjing blinked and laughed out loud.Daniel, is this delicious?

He quickly waved his hand to let the second brother go first: "It's okay, it's okay, second brother, you go first. We will follow behind."

Duan Hongyu couldn't figure it out at all, seeing that there was nothing unusual about them, he only thought that Niu Dashan was worried that he would tire Xiao Jing from walking too fast, so he slowed down.

Qing Xiang didn't know what happened, seeing them continue walking, he had no choice but to act as if he didn't know.

Through the corridor and through the courtyard.

Not long after, a group of people arrived in the garden.

Sure enough, the garden was brightly lit.

Lanterns of various colors hang on the bare branches in winter, which also shows a bit of interest.

In the distance, laughter and laughter came from the flower hall with hanging curtains in the garden.

They stepped into the flower hall one after another.

"Yo, second brother!" Duan Honghui turned around with a smile on his eyes, and paused when he saw the figure behind him, then smiled, "Fifth brother is here too, what a coincidence?" As for Niu Dashan...

"Second brother, fifth brother." Duan Hongjue, who was ranked third, stood up and cupped his hands to show respect.

Duan Hongyu nodded, and saluted Duan Hongjue who was sitting still: "Brother."

Duan Hongjing followed and saluted: "Big Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother."

Duan Hongjue, with a somewhat gloomy face, waved his hand to let them off.

Niu Dashan knelt down on one knee: "Xiaoqi participated in leading Niu Dashan to pay respects to your Highnesses."

When Duan Hongjue heard this, he immediately came to his senses, leaned forward to help him up, and said with a gentle smile, "I didn't expect it to be Mr. Niu. I was rude." He looked at Duan Hongjing with a smile in his eyes, "My family , no need to be polite."

Come to think of it, this is a sensible person.

Duan Honghui's face was a little stiff: "Fifth brother, we brothers are drinking and chatting, why did you bring him here?"

Under the light, his face was still faintly bruised.

As a prince, with a mother and concubine who is still considered favored, the medicine used must be good medicine.After a day, it still hasn't dissipated, so it can be seen that Niu Dashan must have hit so hard at that time.

Of course, Niu Dashan didn't admit this.Really hard, this guy has to take half of his life.

When Duan Hongjing heard this, his expression turned cold: "Fourth brother, don't you know that I have always entered and exited with my Da Niu? What? Are you not welcoming my Da Niu? Or do you look down on us?" Meaningfully glanced at his cheek.

Duan Honghui was choked immediately.If you want to scold someone, this banquet was originally held to make an apology.If he doesn't scold, he doesn't like everything about this kid.

"Xiao Jing, speak up!" Duan Hongyu stopped him.

Duan Hongjue, the youngest who is always used to be a peacemaker, hurriedly came out to smooth things over: "There are more people, and it is more lively. After hearing about the deeds of Xining Mansion, I have always wanted to meet Mr. Niu and hear about the situation in Xining at that time." As he spoke, he pulled Duan Honghui into his seat, and at the same time motioned for others to sit down.

Duan Hongyu sat directly under Duan Hongjue.

Duan Hongjing saw that the quarrel could not start, curled his lips, and pulled Niu Dashan to accompany him to the last seat.

The servants at the side hurriedly added a set of bowls and chopsticks.

"Come on, come on, you guys are the last to come, and you will be fined a cup!" Duan Hongjue said with a smile.

"It should." Duan Hongyu didn't give in, picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

Duan Hongjing remained motionless.

Niu Dashan picked up the wine glass in front of him: "Xiao Jing is not feeling well, I will drink for him."

Duan Honghui's face turned dark immediately: "Duan Hongjing, what do you mean? Are you here for a drink? Or don't you give me face?"
