on the street.

Hu Mansion's carriage moved forward slowly. Hu Fei, who smelled of alcohol, leaned against the carriage and closed his eyes slightly.

Pei Jie, who was sitting on the carriage shaft with Xiao Wu, opened the brocade curtain and took a look inside, frowning slightly.

"Don't worry, the young master really drank too much this time. I'm afraid he won't be able to go to the East Palace."

Chundie looked back at Pei Jie and said slowly. As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped Hu Fei's forehead.

"Then how do you reply from the East Palace?"

Pei Jie frowned and said.

"We have no choice but to wait until the young master sobers up."

Chundie said with a sigh.

"The prince is looking for me?"

But at this moment, Hu Fei, who had his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Pei Jie sitting at the door of the carriage and asked.

Upon hearing Hu Fei's words, Pei Jie and Chundie were stunned for a moment.

"Master, are you not drunk?"

Chundie looked at Hu Fei who suddenly opened his eyes and showed no hint of drunkenness on his face, and asked in surprise.

She had clearly seen the young master unable to walk just now. He was helped out by the palace's housekeeper and smelled of alcohol, but now he looked very energetic and did not look drunk at all.

"If I hadn't pretended to be drunk, I might not have been able to walk out of Prince Yan's Mansion so easily today."

Hu Fei curled his lips and said lightly.

He knew that Zhu Di invited him to the palace as a guest today because he wanted to hear his clear statement and even hoped that he would directly agree to be loyal, so he kept drinking to confuse King Yan with his drunkenness.

After hearing Hu Fei's words, both Pei Jie and Pei Jie showed a hint of surprise on their faces.

"Master, before you came out, the guys from Hongbin Tower sent news. As soon as we left Hongbin Tower, people from the East Palace arrived, saying that His Highness the Crown Prince summoned you."

Pei Jie hesitated for a moment and said slowly.

"I know, let's go directly to the East Palace."

Hu Fei nodded, said something lightly, and then closed his eyes.

He knew that the Zhu brothers all wanted to win over him, and they almost thought of it together, and they even arrived on the same day.

Pei Jie agreed and immediately asked Xiao Wu to change direction and go straight to the palace.

...

East Palace.

apse.

"Your Majesty, Prince Hu, Mr. Hu has arrived."

Xiao Qi quickly walked into the hall, saluted Zhu Biao, and said respectfully.

"Please."

Zhu Biao raised his head, glanced outside the hall, and said hurriedly.

Xiao Qi agreed, turned around and left the hall.

Soon, Hu Fei slowly walked into the hall accompanied by Xiao Qi.

"The humble minister Hu Fei has met His Highness the Crown Prince."

Hu Fei walked closer, bowed respectfully and said.

"Without any courtesy, I summoned you suddenly. I didn't interrupt your business, did I?"

Zhu Biao waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Meeting His Highness the Crown Prince is the most important business, and other things are not important. It's just that when His Highness the Crown Prince sent people to go, the ministers were already in Prince Yan's palace, so I was delayed for some time. I hope Your Highness the Crown Prince will forgive me."

Hu Fei cupped his hands and said slightly apologetically.

"It's okay, it's okay, just come and sit down."

Zhu Biao shook his head, and while talking, he invited Hu Fei to sit next to him.

"How much wine have you drunk? It seems that you had a good chat with King Yan."

As Hu Fei sat down, Zhu Biao smelled the alcohol on Hu Fei's body and couldn't help but slap his nose and said.

"I did drink a lot. I heard that someone in the court objected to the matter between Wei Chen and Princess Anqing. His Royal Highness King Yan came into the palace specially and said a few kind words for Wei Chen in front of His Majesty. So I was grateful in my heart and drank more.

I had a few drinks and expressed my gratitude."

Hu Fei nodded and said clearly.

He didn't hide anything from Zhu Biao, and he couldn't hide anything. Who knew if there was anyone from Zhu Biao in Prince Yan's palace, and there was no need to hide this matter.

"I have also heard about it. You should thank him. It seems that my fourth brother is as concerned about you and Chang Shu's affairs as I am."

"After I heard that there were objections, I originally wanted to talk to my father, but unexpectedly I was overtaken by King Yan, so I gave up the idea."

"But you can rest assured that with me here, nothing will go wrong between you and Chang Shu."

Zhu Biao looked at Hu Fei and said seriously.

"Thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Prince. I didn't expect His Highness to be so concerned about the affairs of the ministers. Hu Fei is extremely grateful and will definitely keep it in his heart."

Hu Fei cupped his hands and said respectfully.

"With a little effort, no matter what, people outside are talking about you being from my East Palace. If you can't even do this, then who will be willing to follow me in the future?"

Zhu Biao smiled, waved his hands and said.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a kind heart. Anyone who has the opportunity to follow His Highness the Crown Prince will do their best. How dare you complain."

Hu Fei smiled and said seriously.

"how about you?"

Zhu Biao suddenly changed the subject, stared at Hu Fei, and asked in a deep voice.

"Others don't know, but His Highness the Crown Prince should know that I am used to freedom. I said from the very beginning that I did not want to become an official. I would rather make money than be an official. I am afraid I will live up to His Highness the Crown Prince's expectations."

"Perhaps I will change my mind one day in the future, but at least I have no such plan yet. I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will understand."

Hu Fei cupped his hands and said slightly apologetically.

"You have said so, what else can I say? However, I will not force you to make any choice. I will not mention this matter and will discuss it later."

Zhu Biao frowned slightly, then waved his hand, squeezed out a smile, and said slowly.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Hu Fei cupped his hands and said.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that Chang Shu has already arrived here when I knew you were coming. Besides me, she is also waiting for you."

Zhu Biao waved his hand and changed the topic.

When he heard that Princess Anqing was also in the East Palace, Hu Fei's eyes lit up, and there was a trace of unconcealable joy on his lips.

"Xiao Qi, ask Princess Anqing to come over."

Zhu Biao saw the change in Hu Fei's expression and turned to say something to Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi agreed, turned around and left quickly.

Not long after, Princess Anqing followed Xiao Qi into the main hall, holding a child in her hand, who was Zhu Yunwen.

Seeing Hu Fei, Princess Anqing immediately showed a face of joy, and her eyebrows were filled with admiration.

Hu Fei also looked at Princess Anqing, and the boredom caused by continuously dealing with the solicitations of King Yan and the Crown Prince was instantly wiped away.

"Okay, I wanted to keep you here for dinner, but since you have already eaten at King Yan's place, let's talk about it another day. Go ahead, I won't disturb you anymore."

Zhu Biao looked at Hu Fei, waved his hand and said.

"Thank you, His Highness the Crown Prince. I will definitely have a drink with His Highness one day."

Hu Fei smiled, cupped his hands, and said gratefully.

"good."

Zhu Biao nodded and said.

"I'm going too! I'm going too!"

But as soon as Zhu Biao finished speaking, Zhu Yunwen, who was standing next to Princess Anqing, shouted excitedly, full of expectation.

"Yunwen, don't mess around. Your aunt Chang Shu is leaving the palace, so how can she have the time to take care of you?"

Zhu Biao's face darkened, and he looked at the excited Zhu Yunwen with dissatisfaction and said.

Hearing that Zhu Biao refused to let him follow, Zhu Yunwen held back his mouth and held Princess Anqing's hand, insisting that he would follow her no matter what.

"Your Highness, since he wants to follow, let him follow. I will definitely take good care of him."
