Something happened.
And it's not a small matter.
Something as big as the country.
The ministers exchanged glances with each other, feeling uneasy.
They all vaguely felt that something might go wrong today, so they needed to prepare themselves mentally and stand firm.
Among the people present, there were several people who were Feng Yinli's men. After hearing Feng Yinzhen's words, they looked at each other with alertness in their eyes.
It was obvious that Feng Yinzhen had become suspicious of the prince. If they waited any longer, Feng Yinzhen would probably mobilize his troops to attack them.
After all, General Nian has now returned to the capital and brought back 5,000 elite soldiers, who are stationed in the suburbs of the capital. What's more, the Nian family also has palace soldiers and death squads. Once these people arrive, their chances of winning will be slim.
These people secretly clenched their fingers and simultaneously turned their eyes to the Queen Mother and Feng Yinli.
They were waiting for orders from the Queen Mother and Feng Yinli.
However, the Queen Mother only gave him a look that warned him not to act rashly, then frowned slightly at Feng Yinzhen with a reproachful expression.
"Zhen'er, what nonsense are you talking about? I know how you feel about Li'er, and I know you two brothers have a close relationship, but how can you bring up matters like this about women and the country?"
"Yes, my Royal Brother, I am truly terrified by your words. I understand your intentions, but I have absolutely no intention of disloyalty, nor do I wish to do anything that would stab you in the back. I beg your Highness to understand."
Feng Yinli also seemed to be extremely frightened. He fell to his knees with a thud, his tone panicking.
His chest was churning again: This Feng Yinzhen has really gone crazy, why is he pointing at him in every word he says!
It was a pity that the time had not yet come, otherwise, he really wanted to take action against him right now! That way he wouldn't have to listen to his nonsense.
Forget it, let’s just give Feng Yinzhen a chance to be unrestrained, and let him be unrestrained this time before he dies.
Feng Yinli finally suppressed the impulse in his chest.
Feng Yinzhen looked at Feng Yinli's kneeling body with a smile, then burst into laughter.
"Yes, what the Queen Mother said is true. My son was indeed talking nonsense. It's just that the wine today was too delicious. My son got greedy and drank too much.
Please don't worry about it, Mother and Seventeenth Brother."
In fact, he had only drunk one glass since he sat down, so this little bit of alcohol was not a big deal for him.
He just followed the Queen Mother's words and backed down.
After hearing this, the Queen Mother was indeed relieved. A look of joy appeared on her face and she nodded with a smile.
“I heard that this red wine was the fine wine that General Nian brought back from the Western Frontier. As soon as I entered the palace, I smelled the wine. The aroma was rich and pleasant, so I guessed it was a good wine.
Such a fine wine, Zhen'er can have a few more glasses. Today is General Nian's celebration banquet, and I also want to toast General Nian with a few more glasses of this red wine."
"Your Majesty, your words are too serious. I am terrified. I should respect your Majesty."
Nian Gengyao immediately stood up and responded.
The Queen Mother's smile grew wider as she sat down in her seat and waved her hand for Nian Gengyao to sit down.
"General Nian has fought hard in the Western Frontier. I am deeply grateful for your contributions to Dayuan. I offer you a toast. Please do not refuse."
"The Empress Dowager's kindness, I dare not refuse."
Seeing this, Nian Gengyao could only stand and accept the cup respectfully, then held up another full cup and bowed to the empress dowager.
"The Nian family is favored by the emperor, and my sister is in the harem, and has been taken care of by the empress dowager. I am deeply grateful, and I respect the empress dowager."
"General Nian's words are too polite. Lan'er is gentle and lovely, and I like her very much. Moreover, she has served Zhen'er for many years and has made contributions and worked hard. It is only right that I love her more.
Come, let us drink this glass to the brim. This red wine is indeed excellent, and I really like it."
The Queen Mother smiled very gently.
Upon seeing this, Concubine Hua immediately raised her wine glass to toast the Empress Dowager.
The atmosphere in the hall gradually became harmonious and lively again.
Everyone raised their glasses to each other and chatted and laughed.
It was as if all the awkward and strange things that happened just now had never happened.
Feng Wanwan's nerves remained tense, unable to relax.
My father wasn't just drunk talking nonsense. He was clearly giving the Queen Mother and her son a chance. If they were willing to repent and turn back, my father wouldn't have to do anything.
"But, Dad, even if I long for family affection and maternal love, I don't need to show mercy to such a heartless person. Since these two people have hurt you, they don't deserve your mercy."
[Besides, whether the Queen Mother is actually your mother is still unknown. She doesn't deserve your kindness.]
"To be kind to your enemies is to be cruel to yourself, Dad, please don't be confused."
She was really worried about her own father. After all, her father had never doubted the authenticity of his relationship with the Queen Mother, and he had always been so indulgent to the Queen Mother.
Feng Yinzhen, who was holding Feng Wanwan, sighed softly in his heart: The little guy really worries about his father.
But don't worry, little one. Although Dad is an emotional person, he will never be confused about important matters. Besides, Dad already knows everything.
He held Feng Wanwan's small hand and rubbed it gently.
At this moment, a childish voice sounded in front of his desk.
"Father, Wen Yi pays her respects to you, Father. May your Majesty be well and at peace."
"Wen Yi?"
Feng Yinzhen was quite surprised to hear this voice.
Feng Wanwan also looked up in surprise, her eyes met a thin little face, and she was stunned for a moment.
