Palace Banquet

As night fell, it was almost time for the palace to hold a banquet. Nan Shuyu arranged a carriage to pick them up, and even prepared new clothes.

At dusk, the five dressed up formally and entered Miyagi with the carriage.

They waited outside the palace gate for a while before the carriage carrying Nan Shuyu slowly appeared.

"Master." Dusk greeted him first when he saw him.

With the help of the maid, Nan Shuyu got out of the carriage, gathered up his cloak, and said with a smile: "You guys came very quickly, let's go."

A group of people arrived at the place where the banquet was held in the imperial garden. There were not many people who came today, and they were all prestigious figures in the court.

Nan Shuyu was led to sit down first on the left, and at dusk the five of them sat behind Nan Shuyu.

Sitting opposite was Lu Yingheng. Although he was middle-aged, his whole body was imposing, and his facial features were as profound as knives and axes.The moonlight was shining brightly, falling on his body, which added a bit of chill.

"It's late at night and the dew is heavy. The Ninth Prince has not been out of the house for a long time, and he will attend such an ordinary dinner party."

His voice was cold and he spoke casually, but he pointed out that the emperor's banquet was an ordinary dinner...all the officials around him dared not make a sound.

Nan Shuyu smiled lightly, "Dingguo Hou is busy with military affairs, so he is here too?"

The atmosphere between the two was inexplicably tense, and the surrounding air seemed a little stiff.

Fortunately, at this time, Eunuch Fu released the siege with the sound of "the emperor is here", and everyone stood up to greet him.

Nan Qingchen, who was dressed in bright yellow, was not as formal as in the early court. He sat on the head with a smile on his handsome face, "Everyone is flat, tonight is just an ordinary banquet. Don't be restrained, let's drink freely."

All the officials around said yes, and they didn't know if he had just heard the battle between Nan Shuyu and Lu Yingheng when he said this.

After Nan Qingchen's words fell, Eunuch Fu behind him signaled, and immediately there were singing and dancing musicians rushing in, performing dances in the middle.

All kinds of snacks in the imperial dining room were also served on the table. Dusk watched the singing and dancing silently and ate pastries, but someone wanted to lead the matter to him.

"I heard that the Yuzhou Flood Corruption case was thanks to a newcomer from the secret door named Huang Wan. I wonder who it is?"

As soon as Dusk heard that the voice was the Minister of the Ministry of War behind Ding Guohou, he knew that the business was coming tonight.

He swallowed the pastry, stood up and cupped his hands, "Master, I'm right here."

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and Dusk only felt a cold, probing gaze on him from the opposite side.

His body was a little stiff, and he heard the previous person say again, "It looks so young, it really is a hero born a boy, I toast you."

Dusk lowered his eyes, picked up the wine glass on the table, and the four Bai Han around him clenched their fists and frowned, but they also knew that they couldn't stop it by making a hasty noise at this time.

At this moment, Nan Shuyu said lightly, "Master Shangshu is a compliment, but the internal injury has not healed in the evening, so it is not suitable for drinking."

As soon as his words fell, Nan Qingchen, who was at the head, also smiled, "Yes, I almost forgot about it, come here, and give the pot of fruit wine I got the day before yesterday to give to Dusk."

Both the Ninth Prince and the Emperor said this, and the Minister of the Ministry of War who had toasted earlier couldn't help but put down his glass in embarrassment.

Dusk originally thought that there would be nothing wrong with drinking a small glass of wine, but someone helped him out...

He took the fruit wine that Eunuch Fu handed over, looked at Nan Qingchen and smiled, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Dusk poured himself a glass, looked at the person before, "Thank you for your love, but the internal injury has not healed yet, so I will use this instead of wine to toast you."

He was so generous, the original awkward atmosphere was restored, and the Minister of the Ministry of War also raised his wine glass with a smile.

At dusk, they sat down again, singing and dancing started again, and everyone mingled with each other.

After a while, the maid brought out a new plate of pastries, hot with the aroma of chestnuts.

Wen Yaozhi's eyes changed, and he raised his eyes to look at the dusk.Only then did he realize that the banquet tonight was probably a temptation...

Duo Hun's expression didn't change much, most of the pastries in front of him were eaten, and he still picked up a piece of the new plate and took a big bite.

Wen Yaozhi clenched his fists, secretly suppressing the anxiety and anger in his heart.

He knew that at this time, the more he couldn't stop it.

Dusk was probably too focused on eating, Nan Qingchen didn't even hear him call.But Wen Yaozhi speculated that it should be because he was too uncomfortable to react in time.

"Emperor?" Dusk seemed to realize that the other party called him, and quickly swallowed the chestnut cake in his mouth and got up.

Nan Qingchen smiled, "I see that since you like the chestnut cakes from the imperial dining room so much, I'll ask someone to pack a copy for you to take home."

He actually gave orders to Eunuch Fu on the side.

Dusk seemed a little embarrassed, and nodded awkwardly in response.

After a while, Nan Qingchen said that he was a little tired, and today's banquet came to an end.

Dusk used an excuse to change clothes and walked towards the river bank. After walking two steps, she couldn't help but knelt down on the side while clutching her stomach.

"Weak!" Wen Yaozhi, who was following him, hurriedly supported him, and fed him medicine with one hand, "Take this first to relieve the pain, and we'll go back right away."

At dusk, his complexion turned pale, and his forehead was covered with fine sweat, and it took a moment for him to feel the pain lessen.

He smiled at Wen Yaozhi, "Brother Wen, I'm fine, let me go by myself."

He pushed Wen Yaozhi's hand away, tried his best to stay in normal shape, and walked out of the palace with him.

Wen Yaozhi followed him halfway, feeling like a needle was pricking his heart.

It wasn't until he got into the carriage that his body went limp in the evening and he passed out.

Bai Han snatched him up, leaned on his shoulder with one hand and a half supporting him, and put his other hand against Dusk's back to send out his inner breath to relieve the pain.

Dusk originally had her eyes closed, but her tightly locked brows relaxed a little.

Qin Shu hurriedly handed over Wen Yaozhi's medicine package, and Bai Qingying took out a handkerchief to wipe off the sweat for Dusk, with a worried face.

Five people stayed in one carriage, which was a bit too crowded.Originally, the two of them had their own carriage, but they were worried about the dusk, so they also stayed here.

They didn't ask any unnecessary words, because they probably guessed something.

But he needless to say, they will help him too.

……

It was rare for Lu Xuan to go back to Dingguohou's Mansion today, and when he passed by the corridor, he happened to hear someone talking——

"That plate of chestnut cake was almost completely eaten by him, and there was nothing abnormal after eating it."

"It shouldn't be him. It is said that he himself walked back to the carriage talking and laughing. Didn't it mean that the man suffered from abdominal pain from a little bit of exposure?"...

Lu Xuan's heart skipped a beat, he clenched his fists and said coldly, "Who are you talking about?"

……

In the palace, the night was getting dark, Nan Qingchen was still reading.

Eunuch Fu came in and said that the cakes had been delivered to six places, but they were replaced with jujube paste yam cakes.

Nan Qingchen nodded, and said softly, "He can't eat chestnuts."

As he spoke, his black eyes darkened slightly, "Check tonight's imperial dining room, who made the chestnut cake for the master, find a reason, and deal with it."

……

Dusk suffered from abdominal pain all night, and the other four took care of him, and basically stayed up all night.

I just woke up the next day, with a pale face, looking very pitiful, but at least it didn't hurt.

Wen Yaozhi held his wrist to feel his pulse, "Is there any discomfort?"

Seeing that his lips were dry, Bai Han poured out a glass of water and handed it to him, "Drink some water."

Qin Shu made porridge and brought it over, "Are you hungry?"

Bai Qingying looked at several people who were busy with their own affairs, she was the only one with empty hands, she couldn't help scratching her head, looking at the dusk, "Do you want me to tell you a joke?"

Twilight "puchi" bent his lips and smiled, his pale and lifeless face was stained with a smile, "I'm fine, thank you for your hard work."
