How do treacherous courtiers with love brain save themselves

At night, a carriage came from the palace to take the two of them into the palace for a banquet.

At that time, Bai Lan had already returned to the post house, and took off the painter's mask from her face.

"That banquet, I suggest you find a reason to leave early." Bailan leaned against the door frame and said leisurely.

"Yes, I know." Bai Yuhui smoothed out the wrinkles on Jin Lingyue's shoulders as he spoke, and said with a smile, "Let's just take a stroll before meals and eat and drink less."

Coming out of the post house, the two of them helped each other into the carriage, and as soon as they sat down, Bai Yuhui said softly, "Don't lift the curtain, there is a tail behind."

"What are you staring at?"

"Maybe you're worried that we won't go to the palace? Or maybe you're worried that we'll go to the palace." Bai Yuhui put his arms around his chest and said softly, "Whether it's the former or the latter, we'll know in a while."

The carriage drove fast and steadily, no one stopped it, no one talked too much, just kept running and running, and ran to the outside of the banquet.

The eunuch's voice is always invigorating, especially at night.

The two got out of the carriage with high-pitched voices.

Two untidy lines at the door were waiting for the two of them.

"I think we are walking turkeys. The way they look at us is so cruel." Bai Yuhui tilted his head and chuckled.

Jin Lingyue smiled and replied: "It's okay, we'll leave in a while, so they can watch but not eat."

"Hehe, Junior Brother, you have become bad."

"Each each other."

"Two envoys, why are you so happy? You've been laughing since you got off the car. I'll have fun with you when you say it." The troublemaker in the crowd raised his head and asked.

Bai Yuhui stopped his pace and took a look. The other party was an old man in his fifties, not to mention his unshaven beard, his face was wrinkled enough to kill mosquitoes, and his yellow teeth made him so disgusting when he smiled.

Bai Yuhui adhered to the principle that if you disgust me, I will disgust you to death, and said with a smile: "Funny things about the boudoir, are you sure you want to hear it?"

"Uh, this... there is no need."

Bai Yuhui nodded, "That's right, depending on your age, it's important to keep in good health."

"My lords, you have come from a long way, please take a seat." A young man in royal attire invited them with a smile and a humble and polite attitude.

"This is our second prince." The little eunuch beside him reminded.

"Have your other highnesses from Qin Wei come down?" Bai Yuhui asked.

"My envoy, forgive me. Your Majesty originally ordered all the princes to attend the banquet. But because the third prince and the seventh prince are ill, they cannot come. Please don't blame the envoy." After the little eunuch answered, he was sent to do something. Bai Yuhui looked at him Looking at his back, he said coolly: "My third brother seems to be seriously ill."

"Would you like to formally visit the door tomorrow?"

"No need, we won't go if the third sister-in-law doesn't let me go."

Everyone is seated.

His Majesty attended the banquet with a beautiful and beautiful concubine, stood on the high platform and politely talked about how prosperous our Qin Wei is, how we will be more prosperous in the future, and how hard we need to work hard in order to be prosperous.

He talked about benefiting the people, strengthening the army, and uniting, but he didn't talk about win-win.

The tables of Bai Yuhui and Jin Lingyue were in the left front row under the high platform, and they could clearly see every expression of His Majesty Qin Wei's words.

Bai Yuhui pursed his lips and watched the man in the bright yellow costume chatter so much nonsense, and said to Jin Lingyue: "Believe it or not, the harder he speaks, the easier it is for him to negotiate peace with us later. "

"Didn't he say that there is no possibility of peace talks?" After all, since the banquet, His Majesty, besides bragging about the strength of his country, is praising the officials for how they serve the country and the people, and how tenaciously the common people forge ahead. , we are the most powerful country, and the surrounding countries are like flowers in a well.

Jin Lingyue privately thought that there was no possibility of peace talks.

But hearing what Bai Yuhui said, it seemed that there was some room for turning things around.

Bai Yuhui picked up the grapes on the fruit plate in front of him, peeled them and handed them to Jin Lingyue, saying: "Do you dare to bet? If this old boy doesn't negotiate peace with me privately after the banquet, I will lose. I will do what you say. If he Talk to me about what I say and what you do."

Jin Lingyue said: "Whether you want to bet or not, I will do whatever you say."

... Junior brother, can you also watch the occasion if you are provocative?

The banquet was grand and boring.

Said it was a welcome banquet for the two messengers.

The whole banquet was a song and dance that Qin Wei's officials liked. The only thing that made Bai Yuhui take a second look was that there was a dancer painting with her backhand during the banquet, which was very interesting.

Bai Yuhui watched with relish, and even clapped his hands.

"Is this girl pretty?" Jin Lingyue asked.

"It's average, but the painting is very powerful. Look at the strength of the brush, it doesn't look like a girl at all. I think she is just holding a pen. If she is holding a knife, it will be even more exciting."

Jin Lingyue saw that Bai Yuhui didn't seem to be joking, and seriously looked at the girl who was dancing and painting to the tune.

He has average appearance, average build, and average painting skills.

But as Bai Yuhui said, his writing skills are superb.

When the girl jumped to the other side of the screen, she nodded and smiled at Bai Yuhui and Jin Lingyue through the translucent screen, and she could see that there was no malice.

"You know him?" Jin Lingyue asked.

"I don't know each other. I'm also surprised that this girl has been showing favor to us frequently since she came on stage. It's not considered a deliberate flattery, and there is no sexual seduction, but I can feel that she is showing favor to us."

Jin Lingyue took one more look at the girl, then lowered her head: "Could it be that she has a crush on you?"

"impossible."

"why?"

"I'm familiar with the kind of eyes that look at me, but she doesn't have them. Her eyes are very clean, very... fierce."

Jin Lingyue asked slowly, "Are you so familiar with the look in your eyes?"

"Uh, it's okay, little girl, if you see a good-looking skin, you will be confused. Your senior brother and I can be regarded as jade trees, so it's not strange to be seen by them. I can't see the left and right. Go with them, let them go." After Bai Yuhui finished speaking, he pushed the dim sum in front of Jin Lingyue towards Jin Lingyue with some anxiety, "Junior brother, don't bother me, you can eat some too... Wait."

Jin Lingyue took the dim sum hand.

"There's something wrong with this dim sum."

"poisonous?"

"...Neither."

"what is that?"

Bai Yuhui hesitated to speak, chewed the words in his mouth several times, and said slowly: "The one I ate a few days ago...do you remember?"

"□□?"

"Yeah." Bai Yuhui nodded awkwardly, it was a familiar smell.

Jin Lingyue stared darkly at His Majesty Qin Wei who was hugging his concubine with a greasy smile on the stage, and Bai Yuhui pulled his hand under the table and said to him, "Look over there."

It was the girl who painted with her backhand. She didn't leave immediately after she stepped off the stage, but stood behind the rockery where Bai Yuhui and Jin Lingyue could be seen, and waved at Bai Yuhui.

Jin Lingyue raised her eyebrows, "Want to go there?"

"Uh, I'm too conspicuous. If I go over, the whole gossip center will go over."

"Then how about I go?" Jin Lingyue gestured to get up.

"It's fine to go, and avoid people's eyes and ears. If you secretly ask for your confession, you can just refuse it."

"If you want to take it back, you have to ask me if I'm willing." Jin Lingyue chuckled, deliberately spilling the tea in front of her all over herself, and led by the eunuch who had been serving her all the time, she went to the side hall to tidy up her clothes.

Bai Yuhui was bored, couldn't eat snacks, and had almost run out of fruit, so he could only stretch his arms and legs by himself, looking at what the more boring people around him were doing.

Seeing this, his back went cold.

A few young men in yellow costumes over there were looking at him together.

One of them, Bai Yuhui, had the impression that it was the second prince who talked to him at the door just now.

Not surprisingly, the next few who looked about the same age were also princes.

Being stared at by the sons of the Tian family so collectively, Bai Yuhui felt extremely awkward.

Fortunately, Jinlingyue went and returned as soon as he went, without delaying too long.

As soon as he sat down, Bai Yuhui pulled Jin Lingyue's arm and said, "You're back. Look at those people, they've been staring at me, I'm so scared."

……

"Brother, do you know what that girl is looking for you for?"

"What are you doing? Is it possible that you have really taken a fancy to me?"

"almost."

"What!" Bai Yuhui was shocked.

I swear to God, he really didn't know that girl.

"That's a gift from the Second Prince."

Bai Yuhui opened his mouth wide, and glanced at the second prince in the opposite crowd, who just happened to look over there, raised the wine glass in his hand to Bai Yuhui, and drank it down in one gulp.

Bai Yuhui: "This gift is quite rare for me, can I refuse?"

"do not like?"

Bai Yuhui said, "I can't afford it."

Seeing Jin Lingyue's expression turned pale, she immediately changed her tune and said, "If I have that money, I'll buy you something nice. What do you want her to do?"

"You really have to." Jin Lingyue sighed helplessly.

"Why? You actually agreed for me? Junior brother, are you not confused?" Bai Yuhui swept the fallen leaves off Jin Lingyue's seat, and pulled him into his seat.

"The second prince wants to win you over and help him with his affairs in the future. This girl was originally a Shengjin man, but was abducted to Qin Wei. The second prince has raised her for four years. She is good at piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, axes, hooks and forks. Send her to serve you You, to show that he values ​​you."

"Can I not?"

"The girl knew we were Sanjin people, and begged us to take her home."

"Junior brother, you can't be soft-hearted at critical moments." Bai Yuhui said.

"Trust me, she works."

"Junior brother, don't tell me...you've taken a fancy to her?" Bai Yuhui asked suspiciously.

Jin Lingyue took a deep breath, pulled the dim sum in front of Bai Yuhui, and said in a low voice, "Try eating the dim sum and see who I really like."

"Why am I eating it?"

Jin Lingyue closed her eyes, picked up a piece of pastry, and was about to put it in her mouth, "Then I'll eat it."

"Okay, junior brother, please put it down quickly. This thing is too uncomfortable, like ants are crawling all over your body, you can't yell out what you don't understand, don't blame yourself. I'm just kidding. You want to bring Take it with you. I'm fine with it."

"I'll deal with her when I go back to Shengjin, you don't have to worry." Jinling Yueyun said calmly.

"How to deal with it?"

"I won't let you marry her anyway."
