Lu Baichuan tilted his head and explained to He Jiu Niang: "This is Prince Jing."
He Jiu Niang nodded, glanced at him and looked away. She had no interest in Prince Jing.
"Is there anyone else who hasn't come?"
Lu Baichuan glanced around: "It seems that only King Lin is not here."
"Then did you see the person who took the lead in chasing you that night?"
"No, he didn't come either."
He Jiuniang hummed and said, "It seems There is something wrong with King Lin."
Lu Baichuan had doubts before, so he was not too surprised by today's situation.
All the guests at King Chen’s banquet have arrived, but King Lin is nowhere to be seen, indicating that he is afraid.
A few days before the banquet, King Chen followed He Jiuniang’s request and released the news that she could recognize Lin Yiping. Lin Yiping had seen He Jiuniang’s medical skills, so he was so frightened. Dare to come.
That is their purpose.
Actually, we could have lured him to the banquet to catch turtles in an urn, but after all, this was the birthday banquet of the little princess. If it was too ugly, it would cause trouble for King Chen, so I just wanted to scare him. , you can catch people out, which is naturally the best.
As for dealing with King Lin, we can only do it in secret.
"Why hasn't fifth brother come yet?"
King Chen also noticed that King Lin was not here, and said with a smile.
King Jing said: "The fifth brother is ill. He said that he could not pass the illness to Xinyue, so he only asked the younger brother to bring congratulatory gifts."
Said, Prince Jing waved to the little princess, asked her to come over, and then handed her two very exquisite boxes in his hands.
“Thank you Uncle Six and Uncle Five for the gift!”
The little princess took it happily and couldn’t wait to open the small box. One of the boxes contained a beautiful heart. The Dongzhu is as big as a child's fist and looks very strange.
In the other box is a pair of white jade-carved safety locks. The craftsmanship is exquisite and looks particularly good on children.
Prince Jing looked at the cute little princess and showed a rare sincere smile, and asked: "Do you like it?"
"Yes, yes, I do!"
Prince Jing sent the little princess away and said a few words to Prince Chen before he sat down. When he turned around, he deliberately glanced at He Jiuniang, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
In front of others, Prince Jing and Prince Chen were considered brothers and respectful brothers.The words were quite polite, but for a moment I couldn't see any contradiction.
But Lu Baichuan felt that Prince Jing’s behavior today was a little unusual, and quietly said to He Jiuniang: "Prince Jing is a little strange. He has never been so good-tempered in the past."
He Jiuniang replied nonchalantly: "Whatever, let's take a look first."
So far, she has not smelled her special fragrance, which means that Lin Yiping really does not dare to come. In this case , then let’s take a look at what happens next and then make a decision.
Except for Prince Lin, all the other guests came. The host, Prince Chen, stood up and said a few words to congratulate the little princess, and then the banquet continued.
Gradually, the prince and Prince Jing became impatient.
They came here today just to see He Jiuniang’s so-called ability to recognize people, but there has been no movement. Could it be that it is a lie?
They came here today. Firstly, they wanted to see how capable the people around King Chen were. Secondly, they also wanted to see who King Chen had been feuding with during this period. Can cooperate with them.
Two new dances were performed, but there was still no movement in the scene. Prince Jing couldn't help it and asked: "Didn't I hear that there are capable people around the third brother who can recognize him? Are there people wearing masks here? Why has there been no movement? Is it possible that the third brother is deceiving others?"
Just now, he returned to his brothers and sisters, and then he returned to his original state after a while. It seems that this Jing Wang's acting skills are really bad.
He Jiuniang turned her head and complained to Lu Baichuan: "Prince Jing can't keep his temper. His class is too low to achieve anything big."
Although she has never paid attention to what happened in the court. Things, but she is quite accurate in reading people, but Prince Jing has no brains, and it doesn't take much skill to see it.
Lu Baichuan nodded in agreement. Just as Prince Jing had been used by Lin Yiping before, and he helped others count their money after being sold, it can be seen that he really didn't have much ability.
Just a foolhardy fool.
King Chen looked at King Jing and asked with a smile: "Is this why the Six Emperors came today?"
"Isn't it? This song and dance is so boring. I just want to see what that capable person is capable of."
As he said that, he looked at He Jiuniang again.
I had heard before that the masked person next to King Cheng was not simple, and now I heard that the masked man’s wife was even more difficult. He wanted to see how extraordinary it was.
The prince also stood up and said: "Third brother, there are many capable people around me, and I also want to see a few of them."
ChenWang then looked at He Jiuniang, who shook her head slightly, indicating that the man had not come at all.
King Chen replied: "It seems that the prince and sixth brother will be disappointed. That person did not dare to come tonight, otherwise I would have treated you to a good show now."
"Not here? How did you know you weren't here? Aren't you the so-called capable person who only shows his appearance?"
Prince Jing was quite aggressive and looked at He Jiu Niang. With a hint of disdain.
He said that a woman can achieve great things, but she is just a pretty vase.
It’s okay to keep such a woman in the house for fun, but it’s a bit reluctant to take it out and call her a capable person.
He Jiuniang lowered her head and slightly raised the corners of her mouth. The next moment, Prince Jing's mouth was hit by something, and it swelled instantly.
"Ah! Who dares to sneak attack on me!"
Everyone looked at Prince Jing's mouth that instantly swelled into a pig's mouth, some couldn't bear to look at it, and some wanted to laugh, but They all endured it forcefully.
Lu Baichuan sat next to He Jiuniang and saw her movements clearly.
He has always known that his wife is very powerful. If it weren't for his good eyesight just now, he might not have been able to see how she acted.
“This man is really bad-mouthed. He says I have no ability and that I am just showing up. Let’s see if I don’t swell his mouth!”
Lu Baichuan smiled fondly. He laughed and didn't stop.
He also felt that Prince Jing deserved to be slapped for his rudeness. If he hadn’t seen that his wife had already taken action just now, he would not have tried to make up for it.
"Who is he? Come out to me! Ah!"
Got hit again!
This time it was more severe and painful than before. King Jing was speechless. He could only glare at King Chen and shouted vaguely: "Don't be short-footed when you are washing chickens." A villain?" (Is this how Third Brother disciplines his servants?)
He Jiuniang struck quickly and accurately. No one except Lu Baichuan even saw clearly what she used to hit Prince Jing. Everyone just saw that Prince Jing's mouth suddenly became swollen.
King Chen saw that King Jing’s mouth was swollen into two sausages, and it was really not easy for him to speak despite his physical disability. He walked forward very anxiously and said with concern: " What's wrong with Sixth Brother? Is it possible that he said too many unnutritious things and became like this? Sixth Brother, be careful with your words and deeds!"
These words made Jing Jing angry. Wang rolled his eyes. If it weren't for the help of his men behind him, he might be lying on the ground now.
The prince also rushed over in a hurry, and said to King Chen angrily: "It's already this time, third brother.Don't say those words to irritate your sixth brother anymore. It's better to find a doctor quickly. If there is anything wrong, it's hard to explain to the father. ”
The prince always showed great concern for these younger brothers. In the eyes of the old emperor, he was a simple and kind-hearted child, so even though he knew that he was incompetent and cowardly, he always protected his The position of crown prince.
In front of so many people, King Chen naturally couldn’t bear to ignore King Jing, so he asked Cheng Meng to ask for the imperial doctor.
