Chapter 596 The Prince
"Royal Concubine, such honor can also fall on their heads, it really makes people confused about the world."
The eldest aunt of the Gu family said softly.
She did not have any substantial disagreement with the Xing family, but if this person came from the Guo family, she would still understand it, but if he came from the Xing family, she would not understand it.
"Who said it was not, my eldest sister-in-law was originally a arrogant person, and now I am afraid that even the fairies in the heavenly palace are not in my eyes."
Aunt Xing said this because a few days ago, Mrs. Xing rushed to their house to find trouble with Xia Meng. She was eager to protect her daughter-in-law, so she quarreled with this eldest sister-in-law. If it were not for the special reason today, she would not come at all.
Xia Meng looked at Aunt Xing's angry face and comforted her.
"Mother-in-law, you don't have to be like this. Since we are here as guests, we can go back after we have eaten. Some people climb high to see far, while others climb high to fall hard. We can just watch from the side and don't worry about it."
"That's right. I'm waiting to see her smile like this for a few days?"
They talked lively, but Du Jingyi's mind was not here. The most important thing today was the matter between Xing Zhao and Prince Yin. It was a pity that men and women were told to sit at different tables when they came, otherwise she would have gone to meet them.
In the front hall, the men of the Xing family were entertaining guests.
You came and I went, and everyone was kind and easy to talk to.
When Prince Yin came, he came with several other young masters. Yinzhou was not a wealthy place, and Prince Yin was not the emperor's uncle who was very important to the emperor, so his arrival did not cause much splash.
To put it bluntly, in the eyes of Xing Xiang, he was not even as important as the commanders of the capital in Sui'an City, so naturally he would not come to socialize too much.
Xing Zhao wanted this kind of opportunity, so when he came over to toast, the young masters were still talking and laughing with him.
"It's rare for the prince to come here, so you have to drink more today. I've heard that you can drink a lot, so let me see it today!"
"Xing Zhao, who can drink more than you, prince? Don't listen to his nonsense, prince, be careful of this kid, when he pours wine, he doesn't show any mercy!"
Hearing this, Xing Zhao laughed.
Suddenly someone called his name over there. It turned out that the brothers who were eating meat and drinking together asked him to join in the fun, so he said goodbye.
Who knew that just as he was about to leave, I don't know which servant behind him didn't step firmly and bumped into him. When he dodged, he was clean, but all the wine was spilled on the prince's body. All of a sudden, the robe was wet, and it was still on the chest, which was very embarrassing.
"My Lord, are you okay?"
For a moment, Prince Yin was a little embarrassed, but out of consideration, he could only say, "Nothing."
"Come on, I'll take you to change your clothes. If I let you go back like this, I'm afraid my uncle and father will twist my head off and kick it like a ball."
He always spoke without any rules, so no one cared.
Prince Yin looked down and saw that the position was indeed a little awkward, so he agreed.
He followed Xing Zhao to the side room after turning left and right. There was a brand new robe inside. Prince Yin took a look and found that it was almost the same as the one he was wearing, so he also clasped his fists and thanked him.
"Mr. Xing, you are too polite."
"Your Highness, there is no need to be so polite. It is my fault. I will give you this robe as compensation. Please accept it."
Even if the robe is valuable, it is not necessary to say such words. Prince Yin realized that something was wrong, so he reached out and touched it. Sure enough, the robe was a robe, but there seemed to be something under it.
He frowned and glanced at Xing Zhao, but he did not respond.
His eyes showed a determination to win, and then he smiled at Prince Yin, and Xing Zhao retreated.
As soon as the door was closed, Prince Yin did not care about anything else and immediately took out the thing to look at it.
The more he looked at it, the more frightened he was. He did not expect that it was actually the "actions" of Yinzhou over the years. He had only reported about 30% of these things to his superiors, and the rest was not reported, of course, because he had selfish motives.
First, he didn't want to make Yinzhou the target of public criticism. Everyone among the princes was going downhill, so it didn't make sense for their family to be thriving. Second, he wanted to leave some room for Yinzhou, so that if something went wrong again, they would have a place to shelter.
But he spent a lot of effort to hide such things, and now they appeared in this booklet without a single trace. It was obvious that he couldn't hide it.
If the Xing family wanted to make trouble and take this thing to the emperor, then his Yinzhou would be dead, but now, what does this mean?
He also took the opportunity of pouring wine to give it to him secretly. In an instant, Prince Yin was a little confused.
He looked at the booklet with hesitation and complexity in his heart, and time was passing by.
Xing Zhao stood outside, but he was not in a hurry at all. Anyway, the front hall was very lively, so no one would notice them here.
It was not until an incense stick of time had passed that Prince Yin changed his clothes and went out. As for the booklet, he naturally took it with him.
When Xing Zhao saw him coming out, he said with a smile.
"Prince, you are so bold. This dress suits you very well."
"Mr. Xing is too polite. You prepared the dress, so it is naturally your taste. I just don't know how Mr. Xing knows me so well that I like to wear such clothes?"
"Taste is often the reaction of people's hearts. This thing is not difficult. You just need to look at it carefully and you will know. The only thing is what I prepared. I wonder if the prince really likes it or is it a false compliment?"
The two borrowed clothes to talk, but neither of them revealed anything.
After a long time, Prince Ben could only lower his head and said with a pale face.
"Whatever Mr. Xing wants, if I, Binzhou, have it, I will definitely not be stingy."
"What if I say, I want you?"
Xing Zhao's words made Prince Bin's eyes widen. He didn't expect that he would say this at all!
Want yourself? What's the meaning?
Xing Zhao saw the shock on his face, and then said something calmly and calmly.
"My cousin has something to say, please tell the prince to the old man, saying that the promise made at Huafeng Pavilion remains unchanged."
What does this mean?
"Old man? Huafeng Pavilion?"
After Xing Zhao brought what he wanted to say, he stopped talking.
"Your Majesty, the two of us have been away for a long time. It's better to go back first and not attract other people's attention."
Prince Xin also knew that there was nothing he could say, so he nodded and followed Xing Zhao out of the courtyard.
