A palace banquet passed peacefully.
Considering that there was a lantern festival outside tonight, Long Yang ended the palace banquet early.
In fact, the ministers had been itching for a long time and were counting the hours. Then they finally heard that the emperor had dismissed the banquet. As if they had been pardoned, the ministers could finally leave the palace and go to the lantern festival with their families.
The ministers quickly dispersed.
In addition to Zhen Guo Gongfu, Long Qingzhi's mother and son, and Long Xiao, who did not leave in a hurry, there were also Dan Jue's envoys headed by Wanyan Jin who did not leave immediately.
Before Long Yang opened his mouth to chase people away, Wanyan Jin said first: "I heard that His Majesty the Emperor arranged a lantern festival in the harem for the Queen. I wonder if we have the honor to experience it."
He was so polite that it was impossible to say no.
But Long Yang didn't have such scruples, and he didn't even bother to fight with him. Of course, there was no need.
"That may disappoint Prince Wanyan. The lantern festival in the harem tonight is arranged by me for the queen. Apart from my family, I don't want anyone to disturb me. If Prince Wanyan wants to see our Dashang Lantern Festival, I can do it." Officials from the Ministry of Rites will accompany you outside the palace to watch the folk lantern festival tonight, which will be much more interesting."
Wanyan Jin didn't expect that he would refuse so simply.
Moreover, the emperor has already said that he should only enjoy the lanterns with his family. If he still doesn't understand, he is out of touch.
However, Wanyan Jin has always been a flexible person. Even if he was rejected and lost face, he still behaved calmly and calmly, "I was too abrupt."
"Prince Wanyan is new here and he doesn't know much about the customs of Dashang. It's reasonable. You don't need to take it to heart."
Wanyan Jin felt a little resentful, but still said: "Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor, for your consideration."
Long Yang didn't speak to him anymore, and took Lu Liangwei and others to the harem.
After watching them go away, Wanyan Jin took Wanyan Luosang and others out of the palace.
It was indeed very lively outside the palace. The huge streets were crowded with people and lanterns were everywhere.
But Wanyan Jin was not in the mood to watch, and took a group of people back to the post house.
Back at the post house, Wanyan Jin left Wanyan Luosang alone. The relaxed and gentle look on his face when he was in the palace was gone, and he said in a deep voice, "What did you do with Wanyan Zhi?"
Wanyan Luosang was startled, looked into his brother's sharp eyes, and shook his head anxiously, "Brother, you are worrying too much, what can I do with Zhi'er? He is my nephew."
Wanyan Jin sneered, "Do you really think that? If that's the case, why have you been in Dashang for so long without seeing you looking for Wanyanzhi, but today you are seducing him to get close to him?"
Wanyan Luosang's complexion changed slightly and he clenched his hands.
Wanyan Jin rubbed his eyebrows and suddenly said tiredly: "Even I dare not act rashly. Who gave you the courage to take action against Long Yang? This is the border of Dashang. You are afraid that others will have no reason to suppress you. ?"
"Brother, I, I didn't do anything..." Wanyan Luosang was panicking, but still unwilling to admit it.
She did it so secretly that she didn't believe that others could see it.
Wanyan Jin's throat felt itchy and he couldn't help but cough.
Wanyan Luosang quickly brought him a cup of tea, "Brother, drink some tea quickly."
Wanyan Jin took it and took a sip before he could barely suppress his discomfort.
Putting down the teacup, he stared at her with a stern expression, "Luosang, what exactly do you have to rely on to dare to do that?"
Wanyan Luosang took a step back, not daring to look into his eyes, "Brother, please stop asking. In short, I have my own sense of discretion and will never let anyone find out."
