The celebration banquet continued, and it was mostly a formulaic scene:
The emperor used the victory of the war to encourage civil and military officials to be positive, defend the country and stimulate their enthusiasm.
All the officials nodded in agreement, toasted King Chen, and took the opportunity to curry favor with him and say nice things to him.
You come and I go, you praise me and Qin Ye is bored.
finally.
Finish.
The banquet is over!
Qin Ye stood up immediately. His butt was sore from sitting. He was the first to rush out of the hall and ran to a secluded corner. He did the 18th set of radio gymnastics for primary and secondary school students to stretch his muscles.
Zong Zhengchen, who was walking over, saw her strange movements. Over the past few days, he had gotten used to her weird behavior.
"I want to go visit my mother."
Qin Ye turned around, "Then I..."
"You are not allowed to go."
“…”
"Wait outside the palace gate." After the man finished speaking, he brushed past her and walked in a certain direction.
Qin Ye glanced at him unhappily.
If she doesn't want to go, then don't go. Does he think she is willing to go?
Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been the most difficult to get along with. She would be so happy not to see her mother-in-law. But, this man dislikes her so much, why doesn't he divorce her?
Save it for the New Year?
You look so sad and indecisive like a woman!
In front, Zong Zhengchen suddenly turned around.
Qin Ye immediately smiled and slowly leaned down: "Go slowly, Your Majesty."
Don’t think that I don’t know what’s in your heart!
Audacious woman!
After Qin Ye saw King Chen off, she patted her butt and prepared to leave the palace. After taking a few steps, she realized belatedly that King Chen was not there and she couldn't find the way out of the palace.
After swaying a few times, I got lost.
The imperial palace was so huge that palaces were located one after another. The glazed tiles, vermilion walls, and bluestone-paved passages crisscrossed like a giant spider web.
Qin Ye was in the middle of it, not knowing where he was. He wanted to find a palace maid to ask for directions, when he suddenly heard a collision.
Then, there were panic and angry voices:
"Feel sorry!"
"This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's new clothes!"
She took two steps closer and looked up.
Not far away, in front of the garden pavilion, there was a tear at the hem of Crown Prince Zong Zhengyu's luxurious dragon robe, and the man in white standing in front of him kept his head down and kept apologizing.
The fruit plate broke into several pieces on the ground. The right hand of the man in white, which was hanging by his side, was injured, and blood was dripping down from between his fingers.
The eunuchs around the prince felt sorry for the clothes and spoke harshly:
"The dragon robe is the symbol of the future emperor. Are you trying to do something bad to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by doing this?!"
"I don't!"
The man in white said hurriedly, "I didn't mean to do that... I didn't see it just now..."
He bent down slightly, and said in a sincere and anxious tone:
"I'll help you sew..."
When the eunuch heard this, his contempt grew even stronger: "Do you think the prince needs to mend his clothes like you?"
Looking closely, the man in white was wearing clothes that were washed to the point of being white and worn out. Although they were clean and tidy, they looked somewhat shabby.
When the other palace maids and eunuchs saw this, they all sneered in disdain.
"Forget it." Zong Zhengyu glanced at the hem of his clothes, his brows tightened for a moment, then relaxed calmly. Without saying anything, he walked away.
The group left, leaving the man in white standing there alone.
He stood there stiffly, his back looked somewhat desolate, his back was slightly hunched and he seemed very tired. His right hand hanging by his side was bleeding and had stained his clothes, but he stared in a daze, as if he was unaware of the pain.
Suddenly, a woman's voice was heard in the air:
"You are injured."
