Ji Yanchen stood upright, as if he had never heard those sounds.
Looking at the sharp blade across his neck, murderous intent emerged in his eyes, but his hand slowly reached towards his sleeve.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of someone walking in at the door.
Just as Zhang Jiade was about to speak, he was stopped by Gu Tingfang's look.
So Ji Yanchen shrank back the medicinal powder in his hand.
Cao Jiwei seemed determined to show off in front of Bai Jinyuan.
"Since Mr. Ji won't kneel down, I will help you!"
As he finished his sentence, he suddenly kicked Ji Yanchen hard on the knee.
The latter staggered even slightly and endured it fiercely.
Ji Yanchen's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, but he remained silent.
When Cao Jiwei saw Ji Yan's sinking reaction, he raised his foot again. Just as he was about to put it down, a hairpin suddenly came out of the air.
He ducked out of the way quickly and grabbed the hairpin.
"Who is it that doesn't care about life and death?" he asked in a deep voice.
At this time, Su Yu, who had witnessed everything at the banquet, said with conscience: "This hairpin seems to be... your Majesty's."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was startled and turned their heads to look at the door.
I saw Gu Tingfang arriving at the door without knowing when, and next to him was Yin Luzhu, who was dressed in red.
His eyes fell on Gu Tingfang's hair, and sure enough he saw that there was a hairpin missing. The jade hairpin was warm and translucent, simple yet exuding a touch of grandeur. It was obviously something that the emperor often wore.
Gu Tingfang turned to look at Yin Luzhu and asked in a low voice, "Tired of living?"
Yin Luzhu pursed his lips and whispered: "He bullies me, I can't bear it!"
"You just use Gu's hairpin to hurt someone?"
"I feel that your Majesty is extremely handsome with or without your hair tied up, just like a heavenly being."
"..." Gu Tingfang choked, and her anger miraculously dropped.
Zhang Jiade, who looked behind him, was stunned for a moment. Did the Lord Zaihe's indulgence of Prince Yin go too far?
For those who didn’t know, they thought that Prince Yin was the emperor’s favorite concubine!
"Ha!" He snorted uncomfortably, "If it weren't for King Chu Xiang's sake, Yin Luzhu, your ashes would have been spread."
Yin Luzhu: "..."
Bai Jinyuan coughed lightly, and Cao Jiwei finally came to his senses.
He quickly stepped forward and knelt down in front of Gu Tingfang, "I will not be disrespectful to you. I hope your Majesty will forgive you."
As he spoke, he raised his hands and handed over the hairpin.
Gu Tingfang did not reach out to take it, but looked down at Yin Luzhu, "Prince Yin."
Yin Luzhu raised his eyes and looked at him, blinking in confusion, a little confused.
Looking at her dumbfounded look, he frowned slightly.
Seeing this, Yin Luzhu quickly praised.
"Your Majesty, you are so skilled. With just one move, you almost pierced Mr. Cao!"
Gu Tingfang: "..."
Damn it!
Looking at Yin Luzhu who was telling lies with his eyes open, Gu Tingfang didn't know what to say for a moment.
It was obvious that she reached out and pulled out the hairpin from his head, and then used it to beat Cao Jiwei. At this moment, she actually acted like a rogue.
Zhang Jiade glanced at Yin Luzhu in horror and quickly stepped forward to take the hairpin, "Your Majesty, this old slave will tie your hair."
"Yeah." He hummed a syllable lightly, but looked at Yin Luzhu displeased.
This invisible thing is really an eyesore.
Bai Jinyuan came up to meet you at the right time, "I am extremely grateful that your Majesty can come here, and I would like to thank you for your kindness."
