Chapter 219

Yuan Bao stepped back quietly, and then quietly took it back.

Thinking about it carefully, his master told him a long time ago that Mr. Jing is trustworthy.

"My lord, please come with me." He took off his shirt and handed it to Jing Li, watching him wrap up the fifth princess and pick her up from the ground.

Yuan Bao was familiar with every path in the palace, and soon, he took Jing Li back to the fifth princess' residence.

"Yuan……"

"Don't make noise, hurry up and change clothes for His Highness, if anyone asks, just say His Highness is drunk and needs to rest."

Yuan Bao lowered his voice and told Du Ruo that her complexion was very ugly and she was still sick.

But right now she couldn't care about anything else, when Jing Li put her down, she hurriedly found clean clothes and packed them for the fifth princess.

The clothes on Jing Li's body were also wet, so he had to deal with them as soon as possible, and he had not been out of the palace for a short time.

After he left, Yuan Bao put on some damp clothes and went back to the pavilion where the palace banquet was held.

At this time, at the palace banquet, the singing and dancing had stopped, Fu Lu brought Gu Yan back, but did not find the fifth princess.

The emperor sat at the head of the table, his gaze was heavy, although he didn't speak, anyone could tell that the emperor was not very happy.

"Wake him up." With an order, the emperor picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Fu Lu got the order, found water, and sprayed it on Gu Yan's face.

Suddenly, Gu Yan woke up with a start, seeing where he was, he couldn't help but shivered, but he quickly came to his senses and kowtowed to the emperor.

"Please forgive me, your majesty, I have lost my manners."

"Where's the fifth princess?" Staring at Gu Yan, the emperor narrowed his eyes.

"Fifth princess? I don't know! The wine seems a bit strong today. I feel a little drunk, so I want to go outside to get some air. I saw a pavilion over there, so I walked over there, and then... I didn't do anything after that. I no longer know."

Gu Yan's tone was quite innocent, as if he had never seen the fifth princess, and the back of his neck was still aching. He didn't know who knocked him out, but he was certain that it was that person who took the fifth princess away.

Thinking of this, he looked around the hall, "Your Majesty, Mr. Jing is not here either."

As he said so, the emperor's eyes fell on Jing Li's position, and he was indeed not there.

"Where's Jingli?" The fifth princess couldn't be found, one of the two young courtiers was not there, and the other had just been brought back, the emperor's expression became more and more gloomy.

"I'm here, Your Majesty, are you looking for me?" Jing Li's voice came, seeing that his face and hair were a little wet, and his clothes were also speckled with water.

"What did you do again?" His clothes were still the same, unchanged.

Not long after he came in, Yuan Bao came back quietly, and when he heard the emperor's question, he subconsciously looked at Jing Li, a little surprised.

"Today's wine seems to be a bit strong. I am afraid that if the wine is strong, I will lose my manners. I went out and asked the palace servants to wash my face with water. Although I am more energetic, I am still somewhat disrespectful. I ask the emperor to forgive me."

Just now Gu Yan said that the wine was strong, and now Jing Li said the same thing, the emperor took another sip of the wine, feeling that it was indeed a bit strong.

"Father, this wine is not what we usually drink. It's no wonder that the adults feel that the wine is too strong. I'm afraid Xiao Wu is also drunk, so he simply went back to rest."

The voice of the Seventh Prince came, the emperor looked at him, saw that he was holding a cup, as if he had just taken a sip, the expression on his face eased a bit.

"Go and see if Xiao Wu has returned to his palace." With an order, someone immediately exited the palace.

The emperor's gaze fell on Jing Li and Gu Yan again, "Gu Qing, get up."
