I don't want to be king

Chapter 391 New Year's Eve Dinner

Lin Yi held a banquet, but Emperor Delong sat at the main seat.

Lin Yi and the crown prince sat opposite each other at the old emperor's next prime minister, and below were all the concubines in the palace.

His father is the same as Emperor Yongguang. Although he is self-proclaimed as diligent, he has never had many concubines. The more the better, no matter whether it is noble concubine, virtuous concubine, Shu concubine, Zhaoyi, Jieyu, or beauties, there is no certain number.

Even when he was sick, his father did not forget the important event of the talent show. He had sex with each other when he was awake, and his children suddenly went together.

The more than [-] people sitting in front of me are all concubines and above, who have been canonized and established, as for those below concubines, none of them came, otherwise they would definitely not be able to sit down.

At this moment, everyone was silent, Emperor Delong, the Regent, and Concubine Yuan Gui didn't speak, who would dare to speak?

What surprised Lin Yi was, why were all the young concubines sitting there?
None of the biological mothers of King Chu, King Nanling, and King Xin came.

His old lady has become the oldest here?
Seeing Lin Yi looking at her, Xiao Xizi hurried forward and said in a low voice, "My lord, it's freezing outside, Concubine Han Guifei and others are old and can't stand the cold, the little ones make decisions on their own, no Let them come to this Qilin Palace, and I hope the prince will forgive their sins."

Looking at Lin Yi's expression while talking, he was relieved to see that Lin Yi was not unhappy, he did the right thing.

"It's so good. For those who celebrate Chinese New Year, remember to ask people to send more good things over there,"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Don't be mean to them."

Xiao Xizi said, "Don't worry, my lord, the little ones know about it."

After Lin Yi nodded, he looked at Emperor Delong, who was sitting in the main seat and coughed from time to time, and said, "Father, since it's Chinese New Year, do you keep saying a few words?"

His father really sat up in shock from a dying illness, lingering on for another year, looking like he was about to die, but he never died.

The concubines, princes, and princesses present all held their breaths, not daring to make a single movement, for fear of being affected by disaster.

Emperor Delong put down the teacup, squinted his eyes, and looked at his son expressionlessly.

In previous years, I also sat in this position, calm and relaxed, and no one dared to speak.

Unexpectedly, he has become a bird in a cage now, at the mercy of others.

He looked at the delicious food on the table, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "Nowadays the world is in turmoil, and the common people are starved of food. How can you be worthy of the common people in the world by drinking and having fun and wasting extravagance?"

Lin Yi was stunned, pretending to be big in front of him?
His father has become smarter, and he has learned to swear at people on the moral high ground!

In the past, it was impossible to say these words!

After all, in the past, the power of life and death was all in the hands of his father. If he wanted to deal with a person, he could just use a knife, and he didn't even bother to use other means.

Now he is willing to run on people with words, and also explain in a disguised form that his father has recognized the reality.

In addition to using language as a weapon, there is no other means.

"Father said yes."

To everyone's surprise, not only was the regent not angry, but there was even a little joy in his words.

I just heard him continue, "Speaking of it this way, it is indeed a bit of extravagance. It is shameful to waste it. Since the father thinks about the common people, the son has to fulfill the father."

Amid the stunned expressions of the crowd, two young eunuchs stepped forward to remove the fruits, vegetables, wine, and dishes from Emperor Delong's table, and then two maids brought up a plate of old tofu and a bowl of turbid wine.

They only knew that the Prince Regent was notoriously stingy, but they didn't expect him to be so stingy. This is not giving Emperor Delong any face!

Everyone looked at Emperor Delong's face cautiously, fearing that he would suffer an unwarranted disaster.

"Royal father,"

Lin Yi looked at Emperor Delong's livid face, and was afraid that he would die of anger. If he really died at this time, it would be quite troublesome. After all, he was poor, and funerals were very expensive.

He stood up, walked to Emperor Delong's table under everyone's gaze, took the wine glass handed over by Xiao Xizi, and raised it high towards Emperor Delong, "I would like to respect you.

I wish you good food, long life and boundless life. "

Is it delicious?

What is this nonsense?

Some people choked back the pain and discomfort of laughing, and simply lowered their heads.

Seeing that Dai Wang stood up holding the cup, the old twelve also hurriedly stood up, and said in unison, "I respect my father and emperor!"

The crown prince glanced at the eldest son who was meditating to eat beside him, and after hesitating for a while, he walked to the center, stood behind Lin Yi, and raised his glass as well, "I also respect my father and emperor.

Father, pay attention to your health and live a few more years. "

Facing the four sons who toasted at the same time, Emperor Delong said with a gloomy face, "Are you all pushing me?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "That's a long way to go. If the father is not feeling well and doesn't want to drink, it's fine, and the son can't say much."

Emperor Delong stood up trembling slightly, He Lian glanced at Xiao Xizi, and after Xiao Xizi nodded, he quickly walked forward and supported Emperor Delong together with Liu Chaoyuan.

Emperor Delong said slowly, "I will live a long life and watch everything you do with wide eyes."

After finishing speaking, only a bowed back was left for everyone.

Lin Yi waited for Emperor Delong to leave, then turned around and said with a smile, "I will drink this cup with you all."

"Thank you Regent!"

Everyone said in different voices.

Lin Yi drank the wine in the glass, then walked to Shizi's side, and said with a smile, "Eat whatever you like, you are welcome."

Seeing Lin Yi, the prince quickly stood up and said, "See Emperor Uncle."

"My family doesn't have so many formalities. When I was my age, I ate just one roast duck without much effort."

Lin Yi looked at this cowardly thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, and wondered if he was being too cruel. Imprisoning him in the Prince's Mansion was tantamount to ruining his childhood.

"The dog is rude, the regent forgives the sin."

The crown prince held the prince in her arms, her expression flustered.

Lin Yi ignored her, and only asked Shizi, "Can you drink?"

The prince glanced at the pale mother and concubine, then turned his head and nodded to Lin Yi, "If you go back to the emperor's uncle, my nephew will drink a little."

Lin Yi said with satisfaction, "A man needs to learn how to drink, come on, come with me?"

Hearing that Lin Yi was going to drink with the crown prince, the crown princess was so frightened that she knelt down and cried, "The regent forgives the crime, as long as the regent forgives him, the concubine can do whatever she wants!"

The people next to him were all in shock, the regent couldn't tolerate the prince?

In fact, it is reasonable, after all, he is a direct heir.

Including Xiao Xizi was a little hesitant, should poison be added to the wine for Shizi?

He looked at Wang Ye's face, but couldn't see any hint.

"What's going on here?"

Lin Yi was a little puzzled, "I'm just having a drink with the child."

He shook his head helplessly.

Now that he is in a high position, any movement can be over-interpreted by others.

Sometimes, he is also very tired.

The prince looked at Lin Yi coldly, and said in a deep voice, "You promised Gu."

"You put your heart in your belly, hey,"

Lin Yi sighed, "I keep my word, I really just want to have a drink with him."

Is it wrong to be approachable?
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lin Yi was a little bored for a moment. After finishing his glass of wine, he went straight out of the Qilin Palace.

The cold wind raged, standing in the empty square, it became colder and colder.

He wrapped his clothes tightly, looked at the fireworks all over the sky, and said with emotion, "This man, it's not a good thing to be seriously ill sometimes."

Hong Ying laughed and said, "How can they understand the painstaking efforts of the prince."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "It's too cold outside, let the princess stay overnight in the palace today."

After hearing this, Xiao Xizi looked in the direction of Qilin Palace, thoughtful.

After the prince and Hong Ying left, he whispered a few words to the little eunuch beside him.

As soon as Lin Yi returned to the mansion, his stomach growled, and then he remembered that he didn't eat anything in the palace, only drank a little wine.

Mingyue heard Lin Yi's stomach rumbling, and said with a smile, "Your servant will tell the kitchen."

"Row,"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Don't forget to warm the pot of wine again."

"Yes."

Moon Road.

Lin Yi guarded the charcoal stove, leaned back on the chair, waited for the food and wine to arrive, and then lazily walked to the dining table, looked at Hong Ying next to him, then at Mingyue, and finally Jiao Zhong said, "Except you, no one else I don’t even know how to drink anymore, come and have a few drinks with me.”

Jiao Zhong said, "Small ones don't dare."

Their prince often invites him to drink, but every time he refuses very simply.

Hong Ying said coldly, "My lord praised you, but you still don't thank me!"

"what,"

Jiao Zhong was taken aback, he didn't expect Hong Ying to say such words, he bite the bullet and said, "The little one dares to sit on an equal footing with the prince."

"Ok?"

Lin Yi gradually became impatient.

"Yes."

Jiao Zhong put half of his butt on the chair very neatly.

Lin Yi wanted to pour wine for him himself, but he jumped up again in fright.

"Then you come."

Lin Yi angrily stuffed the jug into his hand.

It's really hard to find someone to drink these days!

He actually missed the prince a little bit!

Although the two did not fight each other, drinking is not so polite!
A person who is as startled as Jiao Zhong is exhausted!
"My lord,"

Jiao Zhong filled the wine glasses of the two of them, carefully picked up the glasses and said, "This subordinate respects the prince."

"sit down,"

Lin Yi waved his hand and said, "Drink as long as you drink, honestly, a coward like you, don't even want to eat four dishes in this life."

"What the lord said is."

Jiao Zhong felt aggrieved.

Can't eat four dishes, this is the mantra of He Wangye, and everyone in He Wangfu knows what it means!
Does what the prince said imply that he has no future in the future?
Lin Yi said, "Drink, stop talking nonsense."

From time to time, two bites of food are added.

After drinking a jug of wine, Mingyue walked in and whispered something in his ear.

Lin Yi sighed, "Isn't this nonsense, who let him make his own claims?"

Mingyue said with a sneer, "Xiao Xizi also has good intentions."

Lin Yi said, "Let him send it back, don't mess around."

He didn't know what kind of mess this little Xizi was thinking, and he actually sent the princess to him!
Although the princess is also very beautiful, this is not his style!
If you want to send it, you have to send Tang Guifei over, right?
This bastard can't figure it out at all!
into the night.

Lying on the bed alone, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

"The kang is so hot that it's hot,"

Lin Yi got up from the bed, took the teacup Mingyue handed over, and said with a smile after drinking, "Don't overheat it."

Mingyue smiled and said, "My lord, it's the same as usual, maybe you drank too much, your body is already warm."

Lin Yi walked to the window and opened the window to let the cold wind blow.

"My lord, be careful of catching a cold."

Mingyue added a shawl to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi said, "Don't you sleep at night?

I wake up, you wake up with me? "

Mingyue said, "My lord, my servants know martial arts, and their ears are bright."

"You guys are all masters of martial arts. Once you leave the palace, you can roam the rivers and lakes and enjoy your friendship and hatred,"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Why do you have to be a servant girl in the mansion, not afraid of wronging yourself?"

It is said that the seventh rank can go out and start a sect!

What's more, Mingyue and Zixia are nine ranks!

Mingyue smiled and said, "My lord, are you driving the slaves away again?"

Lin Yi said, "I don't have the strength to restrain chickens, can I drive you away?"

"cannot,"

Mingyue raised her head and said, "You can't drive away the slaves."

Lin Yi smiled wryly, "You guys, hurry up and rest, there's no need to be exhausted in such a cold day."

"Yes."

After Mingyue helped Lin Yi onto the bed, she quietly backed away.

Lin Yi woke up before dawn the next day.

By the time we had breakfast, it was still dark.

Jiao Zhong said, "My lord, why don't you go fishing today?"

Lin Yi said, "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, what fish to catch?"

The main reason is that the wind is strong and the weather is cold. Let alone squatting for a day, even squatting for half an hour is unbearable.

It is true that birds fly away in thousands of mountains and people disappear in thousands of miles. As for fishing for snow in the cold river alone, it is probably because the family has been wronged and deliberately hid from the house.

"Baihualou chooses the oiran today,"

Hong Ying leaned over and said, "My lord, give them some face, give them a compliment?"

Lin Yi said, "It's winter, everyone is dressed like buns, it's nothing to look at, and we have to wait for a while to go."

He missed Sanhe more and more.

Sometimes, he really wants to take advantage of the alcohol and announce that he will be in Sanhe in the future!

However, I can only think about it.

If he dared to do this, Liang Guo would really become a grasshopper after autumn, and his jump would not last long.

Bored, he got up and walked around the garden, and Pan Duo came in to report.

"Wen Zhaoyi is gone?"

Lin Yi didn't expect this, "Where did you go?"

Pan Duo shook his head and said, "My lord, Wen Zhaoyi's martial arts are so strong that none of his subordinates can keep up."

Lin Yi said, "Shan Qi doesn't know either?"

Pan Duo said, "My lord, Wen Zhaoyi didn't know anyone when he went out."

Lin Yi paced back and forth in the snow, and then said, "Then don't worry about it, she's such an adult, she won't get lost."

Besides, Wen Zhaoyi didn't play disappearing once or twice, he was used to it long ago.

"Yes,"

Pan Duo continued, "Last night, Liu Chaoyuan and His Majesty dismissed He Lian and chatted for a long time, but no one knew what was said."

Lin Yi said indifferently, "I won't believe whatever they talk about, and what else can they come up with at this moment."

The right time, the right place, and the right people, let him take it all, and his father has no cards.
