It was the day when he held his first grand banquet for his clan members.

"When my royal brother was still alive, he had the best relationship with Prince Yu. Prince Yu reminded me of this. Tomorrow I will ask Prince Yu to go to the imperial mausoleum to guard the tomb of Crown Prince Kangren for three months to comfort the relationship between brothers." Helian Qi said slowly with a kind face.

The smile on Prince Yu's face froze instantly.

"There's no need to do this on purpose..." Queen Mother Xue chimed in.

Helian Qi looked at Queen Mother Xue, "Mother, do you think it's too much trouble to go back and forth in just three months?"

Do you think three months is too short?

The emperor left room for maneuver.

Three months is not a long time, and the Xue family can accept it and will not cause a big quarrel with the emperor over it.

If the dispute continues, both sides will suffer losses.

"The emperor's arrangement is very good." Empress Dowager Xue swallowed her words back.

Prince Yu was unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He stood up and said:

"I obey the decree!"

After this confrontation, the night banquet began.

After three rounds of drinking, the guests were toasting each other, singing and dancing were in full swing, and string music was pleasant to the ears.

Prince Yu suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Who prepared today's palace banquet?"

"Thanks to your majesty's grace, I will host the palace banquet tonight." Concubine Shu didn't expect him to suddenly ask this question.

Prince Yu glanced at Concubine Shu and sneered, "No wonder it was so badly done, it turned out to be you who arranged it."

"Brother Prince Yu, why do you say that? I think this palace banquet is good in every aspect." Prince Fu tried to smooth things over.

"This wine is not good. I don't like this kind of sweet wine the most--" Prince Yu casually swept the wine glass in front of him and overturned it, saying:

"When my palace holds a banquet, the princess will prepare wine according to the guests' preferences, and both the host and the guests will be happy. But Concubine Shu can't even prepare the wine properly..."

"But this can't be blamed on Concubine Shu. After all, Concubine Shu comes from a poor family and has never seen a big occasion. If you let Concubine Shu host a palace banquet, wouldn't that just be a sham?"

"Your Majesty, please appoint a noble lady from a prominent family as the empress as soon as possible, so as to avoid someone who is unworthy of the position and bring shame to the royal family."
