Chapter 540 New Year's Eve Mutiny
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for talking too much!"
Eunuch Quan raised his hand and slapped his mouth.
Emperor Xuan sighed, "Is there no news about him yet?"
Quan Gong said fairly: "Your Majesty, Mr. Ning has completely lost news since he left the capital!"
"The news came back from the Wu Kingdom that Mr. Ning did not go to the Wu Kingdom."
Emperor Xuan frowned slightly, "I guess he went on a sightseeing trip... It's better to go, so that I won't be upset after seeing him."
Eunuch Quan did not say a word. He knew that His Majesty did not mean what he said.
"Your Majesty, the fourth prince handed over the certificate and will not come back for the Chinese New Year this year!"
Emperor Xuan snorted lightly!
...
Time flies and it’s New Year’s Eve.
In the imperial mausoleum courtyard, the eldest prince had a large table of dishes prepared.
"Come, let's take this first glass of wine to honor our father and wish him good fortune and peace!"
Everyone drank it all.
The eldest prince filled the wine and said with a smile: "This second glass of wine, I want to toast to everyone...Thank you all for accompanying me to celebrate the New Year, otherwise I would have to spend it alone this year."
Everyone drank again.
The eldest prince filled the glass again, "I have to respect Ning Chen for this third glass. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the chance to sit here and drink with you."
"Ning Chen, I took the wrong path in the past. Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world... I just hope that after drinking this glass of wine, the past can be turned around."
Ning Chen smiled, picked up the wine glass and clinked it with him.
Everyone started to exchange cups and cups, and it was very lively.
Nanzhi stood up, bowed Yingying, and said: "Today is the Chinese New Year, and the folk girl is willing to sing a song to cheer everyone up!"
"Okay, I've heard for a long time that Miss Nanzhi's flute sound is one of the best in the capital. I'm really blessed today!"
The eldest prince said with a smile.
Pan Yucheng said: "Then I will dance the sword, and my husband and wife Xiao Jian will play together to entertain everyone."
Everyone clapped and applauded.
The sound of the flute is melodious, like the sound of nature.
Pan Yucheng's swordsmanship is elegant and flowing.
Xiao Jian's ensemble is really pleasing to the eye.
Xie Siyu stood up and said, "It's embarrassing!"
How could you miss this opportunity to be cool?
He drew his sword and danced with Pan Yucheng at the same time, matching the melodious and melodious sound of Nanzhi's flute.
"Thank you, senior brother, for being so handsome!"
Ning Chen applauded.
Xie Siyu said coolly: "Surface, handsomeness can't just be based on appearance, handsomeness is an attitude!"
Ning Chen twitched the corner of his mouth. Being handsome is an attitude.
"I've made a fool of myself too!"
Feng Qizheng rushed forward carrying the rebar.
Ning Chen silently covered his face, really showing off his shame.
What was originally a pleasant scene turned into a chaotic dance of demons because of the addition of Feng Qizheng.
The song is over!
Everyone applauded.
Pan Yucheng and others also stopped.
The eldest prince smiled and said: "I have prepared gifts for everyone!"
He had several boxes delivered.
"Everyone has!"
Everyone opened the box, and there were wooden carvings inside, all carved according to everyone's image, lifelike.
There are also words on it, auspicious words such as longevity, eternal youth, and everything going well.
Feng Qizheng said: "First Prince, can you change the words above me to never lose?"
Feng Qizheng has never won a game of mahjong.
He doesn't talk about his technical skills, he just blames his bad luck!
Ning Chen smiled and said, "Then I suggest you get a tattoo and get a bunch of flies tattooed on your butt."
Feng Qizheng asked curiously: "What does it mean to stab a group of flies on your butt?"
Ning Chen said: "This is called a fly... You can also stab it in the face."
The crowd roared with laughter.
Feng Qizheng was thoughtful, and it seemed that he really had such an idea.
At the same time, the imperial palace Qianqiu Palace.
Emperor Xuan had just finished giving dishes to the court ministers.
This is an annual custom.
Every New Year's Eve, Emperor Xuan would give dishes to the court officials to represent the joy of the emperor and his ministers.
In addition, the importance in Emperor Xuan's heart can be seen from the few dishes he was given.
During the Chinese New Year last year, Ning Chen went to Xiuzhou to investigate the case of fairy powder. He was not in the capital... Emperor Xuan gave him several dishes at that time.
It's a pity that this year, not only is Ning Chen away from the capital, but his home is also empty. Emperor Xuan didn't even know who to give the food to?
This brat, I don’t know where he is now?
Emperor Xuan gathered his thoughts, picked up the wine glass, and said with a smile: "Today is the New Year, this is a family banquet, no need to be formal... Come, let's drink this cup together!"
Next, everyone took turns coming forward to toast Emperor Xuan.
The sound of silk and bamboo sounded.
The dancer enters and dances gracefully!
"Huai'an, come to me!"
Emperor Xuan smiled and waved.
The Ninth Princess is still wearing a red dress, looking youthful and beautiful.
Her smile was as bright as a flower, her steps were brisk, and her skirt was flying.
Coming to Emperor Xuan, "Father, I would like to propose a toast to you. I wish you good health and all the best!"
"Okay, okay..." Emperor Xuan drank the wine in the cup and said with a smile: "Come, sit next to your father."
"Huai'an, do you still have contact with that brat Ning Chen?"
The bright little face of the Ninth Princess darkened, her mood became depressed, and she shook her head slightly.
"Okay, okay... let's not mention this heartless brat. Come on, have something to eat. This is your favorite rose cake."
Prince Cheng suddenly stood up, holding a wine glass, and shouted: "Everyone stop!"
The sound of silk and bamboo stopped, and so did the dancing girl.
Everyone's eyes were all focused on Prince Cheng.
Crown Prince Cheng held the wine glass and came to Emperor Xuan step by step, "Your Majesty, I offer you a drink!"
"good!"
Emperor Xuan picked up the wine glass, clinked it in the air, and drank it all in one gulp.
Prince Cheng stared at Emperor Xuan and said: "Your Majesty, there is something that I have been holding back in my heart for a long time... Today, I want to ask clearly?"
Eunuch Quan said in a deep voice: "Prince Cheng, you are so presumptuous... What is your attitude? Are you questioning His Majesty?"
However, Emperor Xuan waved his hands and frowned: "Today is a family banquet. I told you not to be formal. Just ask whatever you want to ask, my son?"
Prince Cheng said one word at a time: "I would like to ask Your Majesty, did my father, Prince Cheng, die at your hands?"
Everyone present had astonishment on their faces.
Emperor Xuan's face suddenly darkened.
Quan Gong said fairly: "Prince Cheng, have you eaten too much and drank too much and are talking nonsense here..."
"Shut up... I'm talking to His Majesty, when will it be your gelding's turn to interrupt?"
Prince Cheng said angrily.
Father-in-law Quan's eyes suddenly darkened.
Castrated dog?
Since he has been with His Majesty, no one has ever dared to scold him in person.
Prince Cheng stared at Emperor Xuan, "Your Majesty, please answer me... did my father, Prince Cheng, die at your hands?"
Emperor Xuan's face turned pale, "Who told you this?"
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about who said it to me... You just need to answer my question. My father became king because you killed him, yes or no?"
The Ninth Princess was furious, "How dare you talk to your father like this?"
"Shut up... don't act like a princess in front of me. After tonight, it's up to me to decide whether you are a princess or will be consigned to the Jiaofang Department."
"I'm not afraid to tell you that the four city gates have been closed and the Dragon Guard Army cannot enter... The palace gate has been closed and the city defense forces cannot enter either."
"Although the imperial guards in the palace are brave, they have been reduced to mere decorations after not being on the battlefield for a long time... As long as I give the order, this palace will be piled with corpses and rivers of blood will flow."
"The entire palace is now under my control!"
Prince Cheng looked crazy.
Everyone's expressions suddenly changed and they were panicked.
