Chapter 612 Banquet

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Perhaps feeling that the emperor's attitude towards Xiao Han had changed, some veterans immediately jumped out and shouted loudly.

However, what he said made many people sigh in their hearts.

Is this person confused? Didn’t you realize that Li Yuan spoke to Xiao Han in the same tone as his nephew?!

Sure enough, after hearing this accusation, Li Yuangang's relaxed brows frowned again.

Looking up at the excited old minister, Li Yuan lightly tapped Long An in front of him with his knuckles.

"Although the Marquis of Sanyuan County has done something out of the ordinary in the past two days, there are reasons for it! Mr. Liu's dismissal from office is a bit too much! Hmm... Xiao Han!"

"I'm here!"

Xiao Lenghan suddenly heard Li Yuan calling him. He was startled at first, and then quickly raised his hands to listen.

It's just that the board in his hand is a bit long. He holds it in his hand and sways back and forth like an antenna. His eyes also follow it. He is afraid that it will fall down if he is not careful!

It's fine if you hit others... but if you hit yourself on the head, wouldn't it be a huge loss?

Li Yuan glanced at the funny-looking Xiao Han, pondered for a moment, and then said to him slowly: "Although you have a reason for this, you are also at fault! I blame you for going home and thinking about it for a month! Don't go to court during this time.

Got it!"

"Your Majesty..."

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Xue Shou and Changsun Wuji's expressions changed! Just as they were about to step forward to speak, Xiao Han said, "Yes! I obey the order!!"

Li Yuan glanced at Xue Shou and Changsun Wuji, nodded expressionlessly, and then waved his hand lightly, signaling Xiao Han to return to his seat.

Seeing Xiao Han happily returning to his place and sitting down, Xue Shou and Changsun Wuji, who stretched out their legs, looked at each other and saw deep helplessness in each other's eyes.

They are different from Xiao Han. In their view, the political affairs of the court are changing rapidly. Let alone staying away from this circle, even if they are in it, they cannot react to many things!

Xiao Han had been released for almost a year before. If he had any merit in protecting himself this year, he would be completely marginalized in the rest of the year!

Let me ask, how can an official who does not go to court, do not do anything, and is no longer in office still be called an official? He can only be regarded as a disappeared prince.

However, since Xiao Han's promise has been spoken, it means that the matter has been confirmed! No matter what they say, they can't change the result.

At this time, those who were not dealing with Xiao Han saw this result, and although they were a little dissatisfied, they could barely accept it.

As for Liu Hongji and the others, their faces were full of indifference! In their view, if they don't take off their official hats and don't get punished, it won't be a big deal! Who would be interested in coming to this court meeting?

Of course, Xiao Han also thinks so. Thinking about the next time, he won't have to get up early like a dead dog to go to court every day. There is a sense of joy in the bones. As for what will be said next in the court meeting? Who cares about that!

After finally getting through the meeting, Xiao Han immediately walked out arm-in-arm with Chai Shao and Liu Hongji!

Changsun Wuji shook his head and walked towards Zhongshu Province with a wry smile. As for Xue Shou, his expression was not very good. When he saw Xiao Han's back, he was about to catch up, but was stopped by Li Shimin.

"Don't worry about him, he's still young! It's not a bad thing to let him leave the court during this period to ease the conflict." Xiao Lizi's tone was calm, without any trace of worry.

After listening to Li Shimin's words, Xue Shou sighed, but did not pursue him again.

After walking a few steps side by side with Li Shimin, he suddenly looked back thoughtfully at the increasingly empty hall and said, "King Qin, I always feel that things are not quite right these days."

"You mean among the civil servants and generals?" Li Shimin seemed to know what Xue Shou was going to say, he paused for a moment, and then returned to his calm demeanor.

"Auxiliary machine (Changsun Wuji's nickname, Xue Shou's courtesy name, Li Shimin is special, he has no characters...) also mentioned this matter in his previous letter, but I think these things are not important now! Regardless of eldest brother, also

Or how my father made the decision! What we should think about is Dou Jiande in the north, Turks in the west, and Wang Shichong in Luoyang! The world is not yet unified, so saying anything else is just empty talk!"

When talking to smart people, there is no need to speak too clearly. Li Shimin's words already made it clear what Xue Shou was thinking! So he just changed the expression on his face and said nothing more.

Xue Shou knew that Li Shimin was also very entangled in his heart now, so he suppressed this increasingly exposed problem again and again.

However, everyone understands this!

The reason why a problem is a problem is because it will never disappear on its own! No matter how long it takes, it will still exist there!

Of course, there is another matter that Xue Shou, Changsun Wuji, and even Chai Shao did not mention clearly!

That is: no matter what happens in the future, there can always be only one emperor!

When that day comes, whether Li Shimin wants it or not, those people behind him will push him to be the opposite of the prince.

When a person represents the interests of too many people, his behavior is no longer controlled by himself! Countless people will always push him to do some things whether he wants to or not.

Of course, these secret things are not what Xiao Han is concerned about now.

It's night, and the lanterns are starting to go on.

The sun had just set in the west when the drums of the curfew started beating like crazy, which made the listeners feel upset!

Xiao Han didn't like to stay in Chang'an, because he always felt that Mugu was like chasing dogs! He kept driving everyone home and locked them up, and could not be released until the next morning.

However, in the huge city of Chang'an, there are always places where the sound of drums cannot be heard.

Pingkangfang, that is one of them.

Speaking of Pingkangfang, Xiao Han's first thought was brothels! But it wasn't until today that he realized that Pingkangfang was not only bustling with brothels, but also row upon row of restaurants.

In fact, it’s right to think about it, people are prone to drinking, sex, and wealth!

Wine is still ahead of sex! Going to a brothel without eating enough food and drinking enough wine would be too impatient...

As Xiao Han's loyal butler, shopkeeper Lu knew that Xiao Han was hosting a banquet for his friends of life and death today! He specially booked an entire restaurant in Pingkangfang!

Originally, Xiao Han wanted to drag people to Sanyuan County, but Butler Lu thought that many people would need to go to court the next day, so he persuaded his confused prince to give up the idea. After all, not everyone was like him and was in the eyes of the emperor.

He was kicked out of the court without any worries.

After carefully questioning the people who participated in the banquet, especially after hearing that His Highness the King of Qin was also coming! Butler Lu had almost emptied the cellar at home. On the road outside Chang'an, people from the Xiao family were going there one by one.

Delivering fine wine in the restaurant!

Xiao's wine and food have always been famous, but unfortunately due to various reasons, these two items are rarely seen in the market.

So when the wine carriage carrying the Xiao flag entered Pingkangfang, it was immediately surrounded by restaurant owners and brothel turtles!

These red-eyed guys priced a jar of wine at a sky-high price of twenty guan, but unfortunately in the end they were all kicked away by Butler Lu.
