Chapter 261 Officials Protest
The eldest prince lowered his head and sat at the bottom.
He didn't know what he had done wrong. His father loved his mother the most, but he banished her from the palace without any warning.
Accompanied by green lamps and ancient Buddhas, no outsiders are allowed to visit.
Several concubines who were on good terms with Concubine Hui were also banished to the cold palace.
He went to the palace several times to ask his father for mercy, but his father, who had always loved him, refused to even see him.
Just kick him out of the palace.
He was even given a poor, remote town as his fiefdom, forbidding him to ever return to the capital.
There was a gleam of viciousness in the eldest prince's eyes, and his expression was extremely ugly.
Xuanyin gently pulled the eldest prince's sleeve: "His Majesty is looking at you."
The eldest prince glanced at her coldly, and Xuanyin shuddered slightly.
He lowered his head and dared not mention it again.
The Queen Mother sat at the top, and Xie Yuzhou sat beside her.
There was laughter and conversation in the palace, and the atmosphere was quite lively.
"Zhaoyang, come to me and give me a hug." After everyone celebrated the birthday, the Queen Mother waved to Princess Zhaoyang.
Lu Chaochao casually put the milk bottle on the ground, then took small steps and ran over unsteadily.
"Little one, you haven't wished the Queen Mother a happy birthday yet." The Queen Mother teased her.
"Mother, please don't make it difficult for her. She has been in school for two months and the Prime Minister has already invited the imperial physician several times."
"The Prime Minister obviously knows four languages, but he was forced to choose body language!" The emperor had a headache.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Look, how could such a little kid like him force the Prime Minister into this state?"
“She’s not a potato.”
"She is a juvenile Tyrannosaurus." Prime Minister Yuan added silently.
His eyelids twitched wildly when he saw Lu Chaochao.
The well-behaved little baby has his hands behind his back, a pair of big eyes full of innocence, and the little tuft of hair on his head sways back and forth.
"Chao Chao is not a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Chao Chao is a good boy, the best boy. Is there any Tyrannosaurus Rex as good as Chao Chao?" The little guy was not convinced.
The Queen Mother smiled from ear to ear: "Good boy, good boy, our Chao Chao is the best. I like Chao Chao the most..."
Xie Yuzhou secretly curled his lips.
Grandma, I am no longer your favorite child.
"Royal Grandmother, I love you the most too. Royal Grandmother will surely live a long life..." The little guy silently took out two longevity talismans from his pocket.
The emperor's eyes lit up.
"Chao Chao, the Emperor Daddy loves you too." The emperor looked at her meaningfully.
Lu Chaochao said perfunctorily: "Love, love, love. I love you too."
He says he loves you, but he won’t even take out a longevity talisman.
The emperor's eyes were dim. Little guy, can't you understand his hint?
"Why didn't Lord Lu come to the palace today?" Xie Yuzhou waited for a long time, but Lu Jingyao never came.
Lu Chaochao tilted his head and said, "I was so angry that I was too sick to get out of bed."
"Speaking of which, today is really a double happiness." The emperor smiled.
"Master Shikong's eyesight has been restored today and he has returned to normal."
The Queen Mother was surprised and said, "How could such a good thing happen? Amitabha. The abbot's blindness was inexplicable, and his recovery was also without any signs."
"It's a blessing for us Bei Zhao."
The little girl made faces at Xie Yuzhou, and Xie Yuzhou turned his head away and didn't look at her in anger.
Her nose twitched slightly.
The air was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus.
Intoxicating flavor.
"Emperor Daddy, what is this?" Lu Chaochao pointed at the wine jug on his table.
The rich sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance makes the little ones drool.
"This is osmanthus wine. Children can't drink it. They will become fools if they drink it." The emperor refused with a smile.
"Oh, osmanthus wine. What does it taste like?" Lu Chaochao was very curious.
It smells really good...
The aroma is stronger than that of osmanthus cake.
The emperor pondered for a moment: "It's spicy and refreshing, but it has a sweet aftertaste."
The Sixth Prince squatted beside her and turned to look at her.
Sweet.
Is it as sweet as honey last time?
The atmosphere at the palace banquet was high, the ministers toasted each other, and the emperor also smiled.
Xie Yuzhou's eyes rolled around. While no one was paying attention, he secretly took a bottle of osmanthus wine from the table.
"Osmanthus wine is very sweet, do you want to try it?"
"Call me brother and I will give you some." Xie Yuzhou tasted the fruit wine and it was spicy and astringent. After drinking it, he felt dizzy and groggy.
Lu Chaochao thought about it.
Xie Yuzhou looks like his father, which is already pitiful.
Since he is willing to give me fruit wine, forgive him!
"Brother Yuzhou..." The little guy smiled and called out "brother" in a baby voice. The voice is soft and sweet, soft and sticky with full of cuteness.
Xie Yuzhou suddenly felt...
It seems that she is not as bad as Lu Jingyao said.
She is really, really cute.
Such a lovely person can't be that bad.
The three children crawled under the table and were toasting each other, making the place very lively. Under the table, Xie Yuzhou stole a wine glass.
Lu Chaochao imitated the adults and shouted in a gruff voice, "Fill it up, fill it up!"
The Sixth Prince nodded heavily.
Xie Yuzhou grabbed the wine jug, and all in all there was only one cup.
"It smells so good. The adults have hidden good things from us." Lu Chaochao hummed in grievance.
She carefully picked up the cup and sniffed it with her delicate little nose.
The crystal clear osmanthus wine seems to contain countless magical powers.
"Wait, let me dip it with chopsticks and let you taste it~"
"Deep feelings, drink it in one gulp!" The Sixth Prince imitated the adults in speaking.
"No, no, if I drink like a fool I'll get beaten to death. Dip the chopsticks in it and taste it first..." Xie Yuzhou was a little scared.
At least he had some sense and took a chopstick to dip a drop and gave it to Lu Chaochao.
The crystal clear osmanthus wine hung on the chopsticks, and Lu Chaochao's eyes lit up.
"Don't let it drip..."
Lu Chaochao caught it happily!
"Cough cough cough..." Lu Chaochao thought it would taste sweet, but it turned out to be spicy when she put it in her mouth, and her face turned red.
It went into his stomach in one gulp and he didn't have time to spit it out.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss... So spicy..." Lu Chaochao opened his mouth, stuck out his tongue, sweat dripped from his forehead, and felt his face was burning uncomfortably.
"It's not delicious, it's not delicious, Brother Yuzhou, you lied to us!" The Sixth Prince said with tears in his eyes because of the spicy taste.
"Brother Yuzhou, why are you shaking? Sit still. It makes me dizzy..." Lu Chaochao stared at Xie Yuzhou's face.
At this moment, her cheeks turned red when she took a drop of wine. She was so drunk, how could I dare to let her taste it!
"You fall down after just one drop..." Xie Yuzhou was completely confused.
Little did he know that a disaster was about to happen.
"My belly is so hot, my face is so hot too... Liar, lie, it's not sweet at all."
“My mouth hurts...my throat hurts…” the little guy muttered, his eyes confused, as if he was drunk.
At the birthday party, the atmosphere became tense at some point.
The emperor's face was as gloomy as water, and Lu Yanshu knelt in front of the hall.
"Lu Yanshu passed the imperial examination at the age of 20 and passed the imperial examination. What's wrong with him imparting knowledge to the prince?" The emperor had never thought that this matter would be opposed by all officials.
Xie Chengxi stood respectfully in front of the hall.
"Father, I often ask Lord Lu for advice. I don't find anything wrong." The prince glanced at the ministers, and they all avoided his gaze.
Xu clenched her fists. She was a very sensitive person and could easily guess the reason.
The reason lies with her.
Her eldest son passed the imperial examination and became the top three scholar in the country. The second son fought hard in the army and has now made military achievements.
The third son, Lu Yuanxiao, is ten years old this year. Although he is not as talented as his elder brother, he is hardworking and motivated.
The little girl, Lu Chaochao, is the treasure of Beizhao.
The Empress Dowager dotes on her very much and she is the Prime Minister’s only disciple!
She looked at Rong Che, but Rong Che didn't seem to notice her gaze. He glanced at the ministers sharply.
He probably guessed the reason.
Rong Che, the war god of Beizhao, holds great power.
With the support of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and with his elder sister as his queen.
If she married Rong Che...
Just connect this line and become a family!
With Lu Yanshu in literature and Rong Che in martial arts, and with Chao Chao escorting them, they will become an unshakable and unchecked new force.
Once the prince ascends the throne.
Neither the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion nor Lu Yanshu will be controllable anymore.
The general will be invincible and no one can compete with him.
Xu's eyes were red, she had blocked her child's future!
