Food for the people

As soon as the emperor arrived, the farce ended naturally. Seeing the emperor's attitude, no one dared to find fault with Qiao Yu in front of the emperor. In addition, Qiao Yu was very sharp, and there was another person behind him who protected him. Like Lu Jincheng, no one knows that Princess Yan is not someone to provoke, no matter how much she looks down on her in her heart, she will definitely go around when she sees Qiao Yu in the future.

Qiao Yu's goal was achieved, and he didn't try to show off any more. At the banquet, he followed Lu Jincheng to recognize people. Regardless of what they thought in their hearts, everyone was very harmonious on the surface, and there was constant laughter as they exchanged glasses.

He En was the only one sitting on the seat with a drawn face, and he didn't drink with anyone. Except for a few sips of the emperor's toasted wine, he sat on the seat without moving, and looked at Qiao from time to time. Yu, I don't know what he was thinking.

He looked down on Qiao Yu, so he found trouble with him, so naturally he didn't expect Qiao Yu to treat him. When the emperor came just now, he was about to break out in a cold sweat. Although Qiao Yu deliberately set him up, it was true. He said what he shouldn't have said, and these words fell into the ears of the emperor. Although they would not do anything to him, they would definitely make the emperor furious.But at such a great opportunity just now, Qiao Yu didn't shake his words to the emperor. He En was puzzled, but no matter what, he was passively accepted by Qiao Yu's favor. How could he feel uncomfortable thinking about it now? , he didn't even taste the wine anymore, so he just sat there, wondering why Qiao Yu did this.

The banquet went very smoothly, there was no thorny fault like He En, and no one expressed any opinion on Qiao Yu, Princess Yan. rest.This banquet was originally organized by Lu Jincheng on purpose for Qiao Yu by the emperor. The purpose was to let Qiao Yu walk around in front of everyone. So scattered.

Satisfied with wine and food, Qiao Yu and Lu Jincheng also returned to Mingxuan Pavilion. Lu Jincheng drank a lot tonight, although his footsteps were fairly steady, but his eyes were a little drunk. Drunk, he wanted to come up to help him, but Lu Jincheng swung him away and leaned against Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu smiled at the little eunuch, and asked people to walk in front to hold the lamp, while he wrapped his arms around Lu Jincheng's waist and walked slowly behind.

Lu Jincheng tilted his head against Qiao Yu's neck, rubbed his thin lips against his ears twice, and when Qiao Yu thought that this man was deliberately teasing him by pretending to be crazy through drinking, he whispered in his ear: " Brother Huang must have known about He En."

Qiao Yu paused, then smiled, "I know."

The scorching breath caught his ears again, and Lu Jincheng asked, "Did Qiaoer do it on purpose?"

Qiao Yu tilted his head, and the distance between the two was so close that they were close to touching each other. Qiao Yu was about to speak, but Lu Jincheng pecked his lips with his probe, and then said with a smile, "I can't hold it back, what Qiao Er wanted to say, go on."

Qiao Yu: ...

He rubbed his lips, glared at the unruly Prince Yan, and then continued: "Yes, it was on purpose."

How could the emperor be so smart that he couldn't see the expressions on the faces of He En and the crowd, even if he didn't hear what they were talking about, he should have guessed it.

Qiao Yu deliberately didn't sue He En in front of the emperor, not because he was kind-hearted and repaying grievances with virtue, but to avoid provoking the emperor's dissatisfaction.

Lu Jincheng had never told Qiao Yu about his relationship with the emperor, but Qiao Yu had been in contact with the emperor a few times, and he could already see the clues. As an elder brother, it was true that the emperor loved this younger brother, and it was also true that he was on guard against him. Although Qiao Yu knew very well that Lu Jincheng had no interest in the throne, but the emperor obviously wouldn't believe it all.And Qiao Yu could also see that the reason why the emperor agreed with him to be with Lu Jincheng was precisely because he was a man.

Lu Jincheng must have made some kind of compromise to the emperor for him, and as compensation, the emperor will do his best to meet Lu Jincheng's request, and of course it is easy to deal with He En according to Qiao Yu's wishes, but in Qiao Yu's case, From Yu's point of view, the emperor's pampering to him was actually consuming his guilt towards Lu Jincheng, and when the guilt in the emperor's heart was gone, no one could guarantee that the emperor would produce something else. Emotions come.

So Qiao Yu felt that it was not a good deal. He En is just a pedantic courtier. Even if he said a few words about him, it would not make him lose money. If you provoke him again, you will think about it. There is no need to let the emperor stand up for him for such a trivial matter. He hopes that the emperor will feel guilty about Lu Jincheng in his heart, and save what he can do for Lu Jincheng in the future. Useful things, rather than spending on him.

He supported Lu Jincheng's waist and let Lu Jincheng lean on his shoulders. He didn't directly tell him that he had already guessed the relationship between him and the emperor, but avoided the seriousness and told Lu Jincheng what he thought. said.

And Lu Jincheng was so smart, and knew Qiao Yu like the back of his hand, he could guess Qiao Yu's mind as soon as Qiao Yu opened his mouth, without Qiao Yuming saying anything, he stopped and stopped.

Qiao Yuzheng was walking forward with his arms around him, but was suddenly dragged to a stop by him, and looked up at him suspiciously, but unexpectedly, Lu Jincheng pinched his chin, stood in the middle of the road, and kissed him without saying a word.

Qiao Yu didn't know that Prince Yan's animal nature was poked by that sentence, but this man's kiss was so fierce that he could only bear it passively. After a while, he gasped and was let go by Lu Jincheng, feeling that Lu Jincheng's lips were hot and humid. kissed him on the eye.

"Joe is so smart."

Hearing what he said, Qiao Yu knew that Lu Jincheng already knew what he was thinking, and snorted and said, "It's okay if you're not smart, and no one plans to tell me."

Lu Jincheng chuckled lightly, turned Qiao Yu's face which was looking away to his own, forced Qiao Yu to look at him without blinking, and said, "Brother Huang and I are not as dangerous as you imagined. You don’t have to worry about me, Qiao Er, but you’re thinking well. Brother Huang is indeed guarding against me. The reason why he doesn’t want to tell you is because he thinks that the relationship between you and Xiao Ling cannot understand the relationship between me and Huang. The relationship between brothers, I am afraid that you will think that the royal family is sinister and calculating, what should you do if you regret being with me?"

Qiao Yu was holding her face in his arms, and looked to the side. The little eunuch hadn't noticed that they weren't following, and was already going far away. It was getting darker and darker in front of him, but the outline of Lu Jincheng became clearer in his mind. Getting up, Qiao Yu deliberately said: "It's too late to regret it now, anyway, we haven't married yet."

Before he could finish his sentence, Lu Jincheng lowered his head and kissed him again, and bit his teeth on the corner of his lips gently: "It's late, I have already announced to the world that it is not Qiao Er who will not marry, Qiao Er regretted it now, yes Do you want me to be alone forever?"

Qiao Yu squinted his eyes and laughed, taking advantage of the darkness around him, he asked solemnly: "Will the prince still hide it from me in the future?"

Lu Jincheng breathed in Qiao Yu's ear with the smell of wine, and said softly with a smile: "I won't dare again, I swear."

Qiao Yu reluctantly accepted this unintentional oath, and tugged at Lu Jincheng's clothes: "Go back quickly, the little eunuch is almost gone."

He looked forward with some dumbfounding, the little eunuch didn't realize that they didn't keep up until now, and they had already walked a long way.

Lu Jincheng was not in a hurry, he took Qiao Yu's hand and walked slowly towards Mingxuan Pavilion under the light of the moon.

They walked forward for quite a while, and the little eunuch who was walking in front finally turned his head and saw that there was no one behind him. He was so frightened that he immediately ran back with a lantern, halfway When they met Lu Jincheng and Qiao Yu who were walking forward slowly holding hands, they knelt down with a puff on their faces in mourning.

"The little one is a little afraid of the dark, and accidentally left the prince and princess behind. Please forgive me, please forgive me!"

Prince Yan just hugged him in his arms and kissed him for a while, he was in a very good mood at the moment, he didn't care too much with the little eunuch, he waved his hand to make him wake up.

Seeing that Lu Jincheng didn't give him a slap, the little eunuch hurriedly kowtowed a few more times to thank him, then hurriedly got up and continued to illuminate the two of them.

When Qiao Yu and Lu Jincheng returned to Mingxuan Pavilion together, they realized that Qiao Ling was still awake and was still waiting for them in the side hall. Hearing the noise outside, he hurriedly put on his clothes and came out. Seeing Qiao Yu and Lu Jincheng quickly greeted the two of them and asked, "Brother, shall we go back today?"

It was getting late now, and it was possible to go back, but everyone in the palace must have fallen asleep, and going back would be a whole lot of trouble, getting everyone up was really troublesome.

"Let's stay here today, and tomorrow I'll go say hello to the Empress Dowager, and I'll go back early in the morning."

Qiao Ling nodded when he heard the words. After all, he was a little sleepy. He was afraid that Qiao Yu and the others would go back to the palace. He heard from them that he was in the palace today, and he didn't talk to Qiao Yu and the others. After the peace of humanity, he went back to the side hall and slept.

In the early morning of the second day, they went to the Queen Mother to say hello to the Queen Mother. Just as the emperor was there, they also greeted the emperor by the way, and then they left the palace and returned to Prince Yan's Mansion.

Seeing them leave the Duanyang Palace, the Empress Dowager held a teacup and said to the Emperor who was sitting opposite her: "What does the Emperor think of what the Ai family just told the Emperor?"

The emperor smiled and said: "Since the queen mother likes it, of course the son has no objection. The child looks clever, and it is good to be able to wander around the queen mother to make the queen mother happy."

The queen mother skimmed off the froth in the teacup, took a breath and took a sip: "The Ai family not only wants to keep him by his side for fun, but also wants the emperor to see if this child can be of great use in the future."

The emperor smiled: "Yi'erchen sees that his elder brother is so smart, and the younger brother he teaches must not be far behind."

The queen mother chuckled and said, "Did the emperor say that He Shenzhi happened at the banquet yesterday? Ai's family has already heard about it, but he is a clever and sensible child. It is his good fortune to meet Yan'er, and it is also Yan'er's blessing." .”

The emperor squinted his eyes in noncommittal.

That's right, this Qiao Sheng is also the blessing of the Royal Lu family.

He should be the most suitable person for his fourteenth brother in this world.
