Chapter 201: Meeting candidates from Liaozhou in Chang'an City

"Fang Ling, I didn't expect to see you here."

Yang Yuzhi was the first to speak.

He looked down at Fang Yuan from a high position.

There was surprise and deep contempt in his eyes.

Shouchun County Lord did not speak, but looked at Fang Yuan with even more disdain.

Both of them had drunk a lot of wine, their faces were slightly red, and their steps were a little frivolous when they walked over.

Both of them were holding wine glasses, as if they wanted to drink with Fang Yuan.

"What's the matter with you two?"

Fang Yuan slowly tasted the wine and said calmly.

I didn't even bother to get up to greet them.

After Li Shimin started the banquet, he said that tonight there should be no formality and no need to worry about etiquette.

Therefore, Fang Yuan does not need to care about their identities and does not need to salute them as usual.

Moreover, the expressions of the two of them were just short of provoking on their faces. How could Fang Yuan give them face?

"Fang Ling looks down on us?"

"You don't even want to drink a glass of wine with us?"

Yang Yuzhi's voice was a little louder.

The senior executives at the tables near Fang Yuan heard this, and their eyes flashed with meaning.

Fang Yuan's reputation has been rising recently, and the conflicts with Prime Minister Pei and Xiao Yu not only did not break him to pieces, but Xiao Yu colluded with Bishamon to assassinate the emperor.

What caught everyone's attention the most was that Fang Yuan was also invited to today's high-level banquet in the palace.

Although the Chang'an Order has a special status, it is not so special, right?

"Sorry, the singing at the banquet was loud and the dancing was moving. I didn't hear what you said clearly."

Fang Yuan smiled and said pretending to be embarrassed.

"Fang Ling looks down on us?"

"You don't even want to drink a glass of wine with us?"

Yang Yuzhi didn't realize what was wrong and asked again.

This time, his voice was a little louder, attracting the attention of more people around him.

"What?"

"Sorry, I still didn't hear you clearly."

Fang Yuan still had the same attitude as before.

"Fang Yuan, are you pretending to be deaf and dumb?"

Yang Yuzhi frowned and said in a deep voice.

He noticed something was wrong and felt that Fang Yuan was deliberately pretending not to hear.

Although the singing and dancing were loud, it did not affect the conversation between people.

Especially Fang Yuan’s location is the farthest from the singing and dancing center, how come he can’t hear it twice in a row?

Shouchun County Lord also frowned and did not look at Fang Yuan, his eyes were filled with scrutiny and anger.

"What did you say?"

Fang Yuan still looked like he didn't hear clearly.

"I asked you if you are pretending to be deaf and dumb!"

Yang Yuzhi was furious and couldn't help but roar on the spot.

The sound was much louder than before, and many people at the banquet looked over.

At this time, the dancing palace maid didn't know whether she was affected or not, and fell to the ground with an ouch.

"Your Majesty makes atonement, Your Majesty makes atonement!"

The fallen palace maid quickly got up and knelt on the ground.

The remaining maids also knelt down and begged for mercy.

The originally beautiful song and dance not only ended with the dancing, but also the singing.

Soon, the emperor, the emperor, and others all looked at Yang Yuzhi and the Lord of Shouchun County.

Almost everyone believed that it was Yang Yuzhi's roar that caused the banquet to turn into this.

The banquet suddenly became quiet, and Yang Yuzhi and Shouchun County Lord naturally noticed it, and also noticed that everyone at the banquet was looking at them.

In an instant, both Yang Yuzhi and Shouchun County Master shivered, and their drunkenness was reduced by more than half.

"Your Majesty, it was Fang Yuan who pretended to be deaf and mute and ignored my toast!"

The Lord of Shouchun County quickly threw the pot towards Fang Yuan.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I asked him three times, but he pretended not to hear me."

Yang Yuzhi also said quickly.

I don’t know if he was frightened, but cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Li Shimin said nothing, but his eyes shifted from Yang Yuzhi and Fang Yuan to Fang Yuan.

"I really didn't hear what Yang Yuzhi said."

"You can't blame me just because I didn't hear what he said and he disturbed everyone's enjoyment, right?"

Fang Yuan stood up and said loudly.

"You, you obviously want to provoke me on purpose!"

Yang Yuzhi shouted in panic.

He understood, and understood why Fang Yuan repeatedly said that he couldn't hear it.

It turns out that he deliberately angered himself and embarrassed himself in front of everyone.

However, what would happen if we knew it? No one would believe the current situation.

Fang Yuan shrugged and said nothing, just looking at Li Shimin.

Everyone remained silent, as if they were waiting for Li Shimin to speak.

"You two are just doing stupid things."

"In the future, you two should not come to the palace banquets."

Li Shimin said calmly.

After the words fell, the expressions of many ministers changed.

Do not attend any future palace banquets, as this means you will be kicked out of the upper echelons of the imperial court.

This situation is a very fatal blow to some people, especially since the head of Shouchun County was not Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, we did not do this unintentionally."

The head of Shouchun County quickly admitted his mistake.

The same is true for Yang Yuzhi, who will no longer argue about right and wrong.

It’s just that Li Shimin didn’t say anything, as if the outcome was determined with one word, and there was no room for discussion.

"Father, Sister Shouchun and brother-in-law may be trying high-alcohol wine for the first time. They accidentally drank too much. Please ignore them."

Li Ke stood up and Lang Sheng said.

It was my first taste, and I accidentally interceded for the Lord of Shouchun County skillfully.

"Father, Sister Shouchun and brother-in-law were careless and reckless, please spare them just once?"

Prince Li Chengqian pondered for a moment and then stood up and said.

The two princes begged for mercy, and some ministers exchanged glances and were also ready to plead.

When the Shouchun County Lord and Yang Yuzhi saw this, they both breathed a sigh of relief and understood that they were fine.

Maybe after the crisis was over and both of them breathed a sigh of relief, Fang Yuan became even more disgusted.

They were rushing to seek redress from Fang Yuan because of the imperial examination.

Unexpectedly, being tricked by Fang Yuan almost caused the two of them to get into trouble.

"Your Majesty, Yang Yuzhi slandered me and deliberately provoked him, in order to offend him and other ministers. I ask your majesty to uphold justice for me."
