Chapter 226 Good show
The birthday banquet was held in the Imperial Garden.
At this time, the imperial garden had been decorated, and the emperor had not arrived yet, but the crown prince Zhou Huangquan had already arrived.
Today is a busy day, but it is not busy around him.
Many courtiers had arrived, but instead of gathering around him as usual, they gathered around another man at the opposite table.
This person is none other than King Wei Zhou Zhuoqi!
The prince stared at Zhou Zhuoqi with cold eyes!
He still seemed so naive. When others toasted him, he would restlessly play finger-guessing games with them, looking completely cynical.
He seemed to have no idea why others were surrounding him.
I don’t even know my current location!
But Crown Prince Zhou Huangquan knew.
It's all an illusion!
This Zhou Zhuoqi is a liar who is extremely good at deceiving others!
This liar used cynicism as a cover to make him increasingly neglect him, but in fact he gradually walked into Emperor Zhou's heart and became his biggest enemy!
This liar must not be allowed to stay any longer!
Concubine Yu said that his power had already reached the imperial palace, and if he stayed any longer he would be impossible to get rid of.
So he wanted to get rid of him.
Just today!
Thinking of this, Zhou Huangquan's eyes were full of murderous intent. He called his men over and asked, "Are the assassins from the Dark Pavilion ready?"
"Everything is ready, Your Highness." said the subordinate.
"Okay." Zhou Huangquan said coldly, "Nothing can go wrong this time. We must put the King of Wei to death."
"Yes, Your Highness!" The subordinate bowed and nodded.
Zhou Huangquan nodded, but found that the subordinate had not left yet. He asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
The subordinate was a little unsure whether this was a big deal or a small matter, so he could only say: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is missing."
"what?"

On the other side of the Imperial Garden, Concubine Yu was walking towards the banquet venue with her bulging belly.
She was in a bad mood because she hadn't seen the emperor for a long time.
I don’t know what’s going on.
Every time she went to see him, he was busy. He would either ask her to wait outside or arrange for Li Bo to come out and let her go back.
It happened again just now.
When she arrived, she heard the eunuch say that the emperor had left.
As she was thinking in annoyance, she looked up and saw Emperor Zhou holding Concubine Chen's hand and walking towards the banquet on the other side of the Imperial Garden.
Concubine Yu’s eyes darkened!
It’s Concubine Chen again!
So it was said just now that Emperor Zhou had left, and he was going to look for Concubine Chen to come with him?
It’s been a month already!
Is this Concubine Chen's favor not over yet? How long will he continue to favor her?
Thinking of this, Concubine Yu just stood there and stamped her feet.
The maids behind her could see that she was unhappy, and one of them cleverly said, "My lord concubine, it seems that the emperor will not change his mind unless we use force."
Isn’t it?
Imperial Concubine Yu's eyes darkened. She originally thought that the Emperor was just interested in Imperial Concubine Chen for a while.
Now it seems we can’t wait any longer.
Concubine Yu touched her belly, and a hint of coldness flashed in her pupils. Now she was pregnant with the emperor's child.
She didn't believe that she could continue to let this bitch be superior to her!
Thinking of this, Concubine Yu gritted her teeth.
Concubine Yu stood in front, and Tang Yue'er was behind her, holding up her long skirt.
She was also very unhappy.
Her belly was already quite big and it was difficult for her to walk, but now she had to bend over to hold her skirt.
She has suffered a lot since she entered the palace.
She felt that the palace was like hell.
She raised her head with a gloomy face, only to see Tang Wanru already seated in the brightly lit banquet hall. The palace maids who came and went were also very polite to Tang Wanru, following Concubine Chen's instructions. They came forward one after another to ask her what she needed and even offered to pour her wine.
She sat in the palace like a master.
Tang Yueer was so angry that she gritted her teeth!
She totally didn't understand what kind of world was this?
How come this bitch has such a good life?
Tang Yue'er stood there and became angrier and angrier, her teeth gnashing. She was so distracted that she didn't notice that Concubine Yu had already walked forward.
She stood there without moving, and Concubine Yu's skirt was suddenly caught, pulling her body slightly backwards.
Tang Yue'er was also startled.
"Are you okay, Imperial Concubine?" the palace maids asked hurriedly.
Concubine Yu turned around and glared at Tang Yue'er coldly, cursing, "Waste!" Then she pulled the hem of her skirt hard with her hands.
Tang Yue'er didn't realize this would happen. She lost her balance and fell forward, almost falling to the ground. If she hadn't stumbled forward, the child would have been finished. It was just that close. Imperial Concubine Yu left, but Tang Yue'er, who was sitting on the ground, was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. She glared at Imperial Concubine Yu angrily.
The hatred in his eyes almost burst out!
*
At the same time, Tang Wanru withdrew her gaze from Tang Yue'er who had fallen.
A maid came to her with a plate of lychees and said, "Young Madam, the Royal Concubine Chen asked me to bring this to you. She told you to eat whatever you want and not to be restrained."
She certainly wouldn't be restrained.
Only by eating and drinking well can you enjoy the show better.
She has been setting up this plan for such a long time, and today is finally the day to watch something interesting.
How could she not watch?
Thinking of this, Tang Wanru put a wrapped lychee into her mouth, turned her head and looked in the direction of the Imperial Hospital.
it's dark.
The evil spirits will be put into captivity.
*
The Imperial Palace, the Imperial Hospital.
Today was not Zhang Zhi's class, so he did not go to the banquet ahead.
The few imperial doctors who stayed behind had already gone there, so there was no one in the Imperial Hospital.
Zhang Zhi collected the herbs from the Imperial Hospital and turned to leave. Just as he reached the door and was about to lock it, he felt as if there was someone beside him.
He looked up absentmindedly and was almost frightened to death.
It turned out to be Crown Princess Shen Bishui.
Shen Bishui was standing beside him, with a dark face and a terrifying look.
"Prince..." Before he could even utter the word "concubine", Shen Bishui had already grabbed him by the collar, kicked the door open and dragged him inside.
*
The banquet has already begun in the Imperial Garden.
Emperor Zhou sat on the main seat, with Imperial Concubine Chen and Imperial Concubine Yu sitting on either side of him. After the dance was over.
It’s time to offer gifts.
The two people sitting on the front row in the audience were the Crown Prince and King Wei Zhou Zhuoqi.
This was the first time that the King of Wei sat in this position.
In the past, no one dared to sit side by side with the prince, and this seat in the first row was usually occupied by only Zhou Huangquan.
The fact that the King of Wei is sitting here today but the Emperor of Zhou is silent is very telling.
The prince was already very dissatisfied, but now he heard Emperor Zhou say: "Zhuo Qi, you are usually very active in your thoughts. I want to see what gift you brought me first!"
The first person chosen by Emperor Zhou was actually Zhou Zhuoqi!
