Chapter 228 Toast
"Then according to what His Majesty Feng Jun said, that lady did nothing wrong. She just lost her composure at the banquet. But in front of so many ministers, is she really innocent? Why not let the Prime Minister judge for herself?"
Chu Xiaoran said with a sneer, then turned around and threw the question to Shi Yinsheng, who was drinking and provoking Nan Jinming.
Shi Yinsheng seemed to have peed himself a long time ago. He pulled himself up, stood up very calmly, bowed and said: "Your Highness Feng Jun's words are reasonable, but it is inappropriate to have no discipline in the court. Moreover, although it is His Highness Feng Jun's birthday party, the adult just now really ruined our mood, so I think Your Highness the Princess has some truth in what she said."
Shangguan Yilin looked at the two people in front of him meaningfully, his eyes wandering between them.
"When did the Prime Minister become so close to Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
When Shangguan Yilin asked this question, he actually wanted to stir up the suspicion of Xiahou Chunan next to him. As a king, the thing he could not tolerate the most was that his court officials were implicated and formed cliques, which might very likely destroy his royal power in the end.
Although Chu Xiaoran does not have real strength now and dares not act rashly, Shi Yinsheng is different. He has been in the position of prime minister for 15 years. How many people in the court are from his gang?
Xiahou Chunan was naturally unsure about this matter and could only take it one step at a time.
"Since the Prime Minister has said so, then the person who just lost her temper will be confined to her house for half a month, deprived of her official duties, and allowed to reflect on her actions at home."
Chu Xiaoran naturally decided to stop while he was ahead so as not to anger Xiahou Chunan in front of him. The king was naturally the most suspicious, and he shouldn't have involved the prime minister just now, but if he didn't pull her out, there would be no way to break the current deadlock.
Shi Yinsheng was sitting right next to Chu Xiaoran, so she only needed to pay a little attention to discover Nan Jinming's identity, as well as the private exchanges between the two.
"Okay, okay, everyone is here to relax today, so just enjoy your wine and meat, and don't worry about the other things."
Xiahou Chunan brought everything back to the original point, and this time Chu Xiaoran obediently pulled Nan Jinming back to his seat.
Xiahou Chun'an gave a look to the nanny next to him, and that person immediately gathered the people from the private music troupe to start playing music and choreographing dances, and the whole banquet became an atmosphere of singing and dancing again.
"You shouldn't have been so reckless just now."
"Of course I can't let others bully you."
Chu Xiaoran glanced at Nan Jinming, who was standing next to her with a worried look on his face, and replied to her.
"Your Highness is so courageous, I really admire you."
Shi Yinsheng, who was standing next to him, picked up the wine glass on the table and toasted him.
"I still want to thank the Prime Minister for standing by my side and helping me out."
Shi Yinsheng glanced at Nan Jinming beside him intentionally or unintentionally. Seeing Nan Jinming wearing men's clothes, he naturally knew what happened between the two.
It should be that Nan Jinming was worried about Chu Xiaoran, so he followed him into the palace.
"No need to thank me. Your Highness and I are in the same boat, so I will naturally stand on your side. But if I jump out of such a small matter today, I'm afraid it will make Your Majesty suspicious."
Chu Xiaoran picked up the wine glass on the table and toasted Shi Yinsheng in return.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister. Your Majesty, there is nothing you can do to me now. If she doesn't want to be known as an unkind and unjust person, she will have to do as I say."
Nan Jinming frowned. He had told him some things to be careful of when he was at home, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't keep an eye on him when he came to the palace.
What exactly does Shi Yinsheng want to do?
It was discovered that she was involved with the eldest prince, but these things have not been dealt with yet, so it seems that we still have to make plans slowly.
"Your Highness, His Highness Fengjun wants you to go to the back hall to discuss something."
After walking for half a minute, a servant suddenly walked towards Chu Xiaoran.
"Is there anything that can't be said in person?"
Chu Xiaoran raised his eyebrows slightly. Nan Jinming also arranged for him to wear a purple suit today. Purple symbolizes nobility. Coupled with his stunningly beautiful face, naturally no one dared to point fingers at him.
"Your Highness, please come with me. Don't make His Highness Feng Jun wait anxiously. If he does, you will blame me."
The servant next to him lowered his eyebrows and did not dare to look at Chu Xiaoran. Chu Xiaoran moved his lips slightly and still responded.
Now many ministers have begun to leave, and Chu Xiaoran had originally planned to go back with Nan Jinming.
But Nan Jinming had just gone to the toilet, and Shi Yinsheng had already gone back. Nan Jinming told him to stay in his seat and not walk around, but what should he do in this situation now?
"His Royal Highness Feng Jun said that we only need to bother Her Royal Highness the Princess for a moment."
"Lead the way."
Chu Xiaoran stood up, patted his wrinkled clothes, and spoke lightly to the person in front of him.
