The banquet at Linde Hall today is quite grand.
Whether it's Consort Shi or the Dowager Consort who died, it doesn't matter.
The banquet was meant to reassure people; many were killed in this battle, but even more remained.
Winning a battle is a joyous occasion!
Although the emperor has not yet returned to the capital, he still plans to personally lead the expedition, so there is no rush.
It was nominally a 100-day celebration, so the two princes were brought out to be seen by the other princes.
King Song looked at his great-grandson and thought both of them were good.
The eunuch held him in his arms. This time, Hachiro wasn't crying and was even more endearing than Kyuro. Kyuro, on the other hand, was a bit dull and didn't try to outshine Hachiro.
Sitting on top of the throne, nothing is apparent. However, the princes don't seem to care much about the two princes.
Although he used Hachiro to cause trouble, he couldn't actually have a child.
Someone behind shouted, "This Shi Zong didn't even get into the palace when he came to Sheng'an."
Someone asked, "Does the Earl of Xuancheng still not know what Shi Zong has done?"
The Earl of Xuancheng was a little dumbfounded: "What can you do?"
The emperor issued an edict: "Xie Weizhong is stripped of his title and reduced to a commoner; he may leave."
It was quite blunt, but it didn't cause much of a stir. An idiot shouldn't be here.
Xie Weizhong objected: "I am also Emperor Taizong's grandson!"
King Song spoke up: "You are not worthy of the surname Xie. Your whole family can apologize together."
Of course, he should atone with his death. Although Xie Weizhong didn't have much power, people still approached him, willing to do anything he asked. He could probably even dig up his own ancestral graves.
The King of Wu added, "Since he doesn't know he's wrong, give him a hundred strokes of the cane and then kick him out."
In truth, Xie Weizhong's actions were even worse than those of the King of Wu. Who told him to be so stupid?
The King of Wu did some bad things, but also some good things. So Xie Weizhong was completely useless.
Hachiro burst into tears.
He frowned and said, "Take him away."
The eunuchs quickly carried Hachiro and Kyuro away together. Hachiro was truly unlikable.
It's not a big deal, though. The spring banquet is also very beautiful, with all kinds of flowers.
The mandarin fish in front of Huan Yue, and the row of peach blossoms beside him, were very poetic.
Huan Yue watched the beautiful woman dance with undiminished eyes.
He glanced at her and scoffed. She doesn't even know how to enjoy herself; she must be out of her mind.
Huan Yue obediently followed suit. Real art isn't just about looking at beautiful women, but dance is a fusion of body and soul. How can you dance without a body?
Xie Zhou glanced at his wife, wondering if she was so serious that she was doing those "53" practice problems again.
Huan Yue glanced at him.
Did Xie Zhou mutter something when he heard her doing it? Some of these beauties were sent by the Xiong family, and they're quite good.
Xie Zhou reigned as emperor for over a decade, enjoying more than someone in their twenties. However, Empress Chang did not particularly like him.
After the group of beauties finished dancing, they posed for a dance.
Today, I only need to glance at the blue moth.
"Oh," Huan Yue said, "award it."
That's how you send them away.
Several dancers left politely, while two remained posing to watch the emperor.
Huan Yue asked, "Did you twist your waist?"
Di Baose teased, "Are all the dancers these days so delicate? Is Consort De too kind, or is she being bullied?"
Consort Zhu hurriedly said, "If you twisted your waist, go and rest properly."
The palace maids came and dragged the two beauties away.
The man didn't see the show. There was one dressed like Ge Xiuyi.
Huan Yue had never met Consort Ge; the emperor probably had forgotten. He was busy with state affairs every day, so it was normal for him not to remember.
Han Yingying suddenly ran up.
Duke Zheng sighed, "It's hopeless."
Today, I comforted him with my eyes. A family is big now, and not everyone can manage it.
The Duke of Zheng is a bit shameful; Han Oumo is from his family, as is Han Yingying.
The Duke of Yan invited him to drink, but since they were already very close and didn't need to arrange a marriage, they didn't agree.
The Duke of Zheng and he had always had a good relationship, so it was a good thing that Di Shan married the Princess of Changqing County.
Di Shan did not object. Princess Changqing was good in every way, except that she had a betrothed since childhood who died at the age of three, but that had nothing to do with Changqing.
Princess Changqing is eighteen years old. She stays at home to help her mother, take care of her younger brother and half-brother, which is much better than Han Yingying.
Han Yingying felt very strong and played the piano for everyone.
Huan Yue felt inferior, but she practiced calligraphy and painting, and never touched the zither. Anyway, there were many people who knew how to play it, so she only needed to appreciate it.
After Han Yingying finished playing "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix," she didn't know who to look at.
Huan Yue thought to himself, looking at the emperor is definitely not the right thing to do. Although his uncle could also do it, his uncle had extremely high standards for the emperor!
Then Han Yingying cried. There was no one in the world she could marry. She felt so wronged.
Madam Yuan rushed over, as if her daughter was about to die. She looked at the emperor and pointed at Huan Yue, saying, "This is outrageous!"
Consort Zhu, standing behind the curtain, spoke: "Drag her away and give her eighty strokes of the cane."
The Emperor nodded. The Crown Princess isn't someone to be spoken of lightly. How can it be that every time she cries, it's someone else's fault? What kind of logic is that?
The eunuchs dragged Yuan Shi and Han Yingying away.
Han Yingying broke free and rushed to the King of Wu, crying.
King Wu, my goodness! No one can just casually stage an accident like this! I'm too powerful for her to handle!
Mrs. Yuan was completely stunned!
Duke Zheng was furious: "Han Yingying is expelled from the Han family. Madam Yuan has failed in her duty to educate her daughter..."
Yuan rushed over frantically, hugging her daughter tightly and crying out in anguish, "My poor daughter!"
The eunuch forcefully took the two lunatics away, covering their mouths to stop them from shouting.
Some who didn't know the situation looked at the King of Wu with a strange expression.
After all, the Prince of Wu was born to Consort Fu, and he didn't get along well with the Empress Dowager, who came from the Han family. So Han Yingying's actions were very strange.
The Duke of Zheng, despite his advanced age, still had to apologize to the King of Wu.
The King of Wu couldn't accept it: "Uncle, please relax and don't hold it against the child."
The Duke of Zheng was furious: "How old are you, still calling yourself a child?"
The King of Wu did not want to discuss this issue; he also had his own troubles.
Let's have a drink today, and continue the music and dancing.
