Early the next morning, Ying Zheng opened his eyes, rubbing his temples with a painful expression, recalling what happened last night.
As if thinking of that dreamlike feeling, he immediately scanned the room to see if he was in the dormitory or Yuxiu Palace.
"call……"
After carefully looking at the interior decoration and confirming that he was in Yuxiu Palace, he breathed a sigh of relief.
In other words, everything is not a dream, but reality!
"Lian'er? Lian'er...?"
Shaking his head, the turbid feeling seemed to be driven away a lot, and his eyes became clearer.
Lian'er was nowhere to be seen in the house, so she put on her shoes and shouted softly.
"Brother Zheng, are you awake...?"
Lian'er happened to walk in at this time carrying a wooden carved tray.
There was a blue and white porcelain cup on the tray, "Brother Zheng, this is the hangover soup that has just been cooked in the dining room. Drink it quickly to avoid a headache!"
"Just let the palace staff do these things, why bother doing it yourself?"
Seeing a familiar face, Ying Zheng felt relieved.
"Being idle is boring!"
Lian'er smiled slightly and brought the porcelain cup to Ying Zheng.
"You had a late night's rest yesterday, you could have slept a little longer!"
Ying Zheng was not polite. He took it and blew it twice before drinking it in one gulp.
No matter if it’s useful or not, just drink it first!
"hehe……"
Lian'er chuckled softly, "Still sleeping? Brother Zheng, do you know what time it is now?"
"What time?"
Ying Zheng just opened his eyes and didn't bother to check the time.
Lian'er pointed to the clock on the cabinet and said with a smile: "It's already past three in the afternoon! If I go to sleep again, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight!"
"What? It's already timed?"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng was quite shocked, and his eyes were as wide as bells.
"Yes! In another hour, it will be dark!"
Lian'er smiled and put the finished porcelain cup back on the tray and handed it to the palace attendant.
"Ouch! I drank this wine, and I actually slept until now...!"
Ying Zheng slapped his forehead in annoyance, "No wonder Wang Ben and the others always say that drinking is a waste of time! Drinking is really a waste of time! Fortunately, the throne has been passed to that boy, otherwise wouldn't I have missed the morning court?"
"Brother Zheng, why did you forget? Now that you are taking a bath in the middle of the court, Feiyu doesn't have to go to court early!"
Lian'er reminded softly.
"Ouch! Look at my head!"
Ying Zheng shook his head vigorously, trying to wake himself up as much as possible. Then he seemed to have thought of something, and came to Lian'er's side, lowering his voice and asking, "I... didn't make any jokes yesterday, right?"
"Pfft..."
Lian'er laughed out loud when she mentioned this matter.
Seeing this scene, Ying Zheng understood that what he had just remembered must have happened in reality.
He immediately pursed his lips and said, "Then...has anyone else seen it?"
"Brother Zheng, don't worry. I was the one who helped Brother Zheng back to the palace last night. Apart from me, these are the only other people in the palace!"
Lian'er smiled and said truthfully.
When Ying Zheng heard the sound, he immediately stared at the palace people in the room.
The meaning is self-evident, that is, let them keep their mouths shut and not spread the word!
The palace people received the signal and quickly lowered their heads!
It was not their first day in the palace, so they knew the rules inside the palace very well!
They all know very well what should be said and what should not be said!
If you want to get along in the palace, it is most important not to gossip.
No one needs to know which sentence is wrong and his life will be lost!
"Brother Zheng, don't worry, they have been with me for many years and they won't talk nonsense!"
Lian'er stood on the palace people's side and helped them.
"Um……!"
Ying Zheng took a deep breath, felt relieved, nodded and said: "Could the wine at the banquet last night be fake wine? I only drank two small glasses, not as much as I usually drink, how could I be so drunk? What does it look like?"
He had been thinking about this issue since he woke up this morning.
Ordinarily, he has a good drinking capacity. He has drunk more than this before, and he is not drunk enough to talk nonsense.
My mind was so confused last night that I couldn't even tell whether it was a dream or an illusion!
"How is the boy's condition today? How are Fusu and Heng'er? Have you ever been in the same state as me? Could it be that the boy arranged fake wine at the dinner party? So I will be in this situation after drinking it?"
Ying Zheng had lost so much face last night and wanted to blame it on the wine and Ying Feiyu.
"Brother Zheng! Everyone showed up to the palace with a straight face last night. Feiyu got up early in the morning and went to deliver gifts to the Wang Mansion and Zhang Mansion! There is even less chance that there will be any problem with the wine! Yujiu is all The wine shop’s special offer, who dares to use fake ones?”
Ying Feiyu is Lian'er's son. It's strange to be happy after hearing these words.
He immediately pulled his jade hand out of Ying Zheng's rough palm with a face, and sat aside, far away from him!
"Ha ha ha ha……!"
Seeing his displeasure, Ying Zheng reacted immediately. After laughing twice awkwardly, he moved his buttocks and came closer, "Lian'er, I was just joking. Why are you so angry? Feiyu is Our son, how could I doubt him? It’s just a joke...!"
After licking his old face and smiling for a long time, and saying nice things for a long time, Lian'er's anger dissipated.
"Brother Zheng, you were fine at the end of the banquet last night! It wasn't until the fireworks were over and the words "Guotai Minan" were read that the drunkenness started to set in. It had nothing to do with Fei Yu!"
Lian'er sat beside the bed and said seriously.
"Yes, yes, yes! I just said the wrong thing! It's all my fault...!"
Ying Zheng grabbed Lian'er's jade hand again and held it in the palm of his hand, "Should I say it or not, the shock that those four big characters brought to me was so strong! I instantly got drunk! Alas!"
Mentioning last night's fireworks, Ying Zheng thought of Da Qin's past and sighed deeply, "It's not easy for Da Qin to have the peace and prosperity of the country today!"
"Okay! Brother Zheng, don't think about this! The food has been prepared in the dining room, please pass it on quickly!"
From the end of the dinner to now, both of them have eaten nothing, and now their stomachs are empty, and they make a few noises in protest from time to time.
"Yes, yes, hurry up and pass the food around!"
This was a good way to divert attention, so Ying Zheng quickly greeted him.
In just a moment, a table of meat and vegetable dishes was served!
Now the vegetables in the vegetable greenhouse are all mature, and all the vegetables on the table come from there.
Ying Zheng also became more aware of his original misunderstanding of Feng Quji.
After all, he is an old minister who has been with me all his life. He has worked hard for himself, but I still doubt him. I really shouldn't!
So during the New Year period, Ying Zheng sent people to deliver a lot of fresh vegetables every day, which was a token of appreciation for his hard work and an apology to him!
Feng Quji didn't refuse even if he fell ill.
In the cold winter months, vegetables are more precious than gold, just enough to supplement nutrition for the whole family!
