Daming Palace is built next to the water in the Liuyun Palace. The surface of the pool is sparkling, and the breeze blows ripples, echoing the glazed tiles on the eaves. There is a lot of spending money everywhere, and the time is reflected among the jade stones.

Wasted time.

The palace servants were going back and forth to fetch things and serve the banquet, and the wine was passed down to their stomachs. Many banquet guests had blushing cheeks and beaming eyebrows.

This banquet was hosted by the Queen for the birthday of Princess Pingyang. After the formal ceremony and congratulations, the palace etiquette was put aside and the guests were free and unfettered.

During the banquet, they drank cinnamon wine, pepper paste, and played with silk and bamboo. The queen's status in the dynasty was very important. Today, all the important civil and military officials of the dynasty attended the banquet.

There was a sound of footsteps in front of the palace, and a girl's figure trotted over: "Mother! Mother!"

Pingyang is dressed in a colorful dress with flying flowers and golden emeralds, and the golden begonia beads on her head are shining with bright luster as they tremble. She is colorful and noble. She is a well-deserved protagonist.

But what caught her eye was a young man in a snow robe. She immediately stopped and shrank: "Cousin? Why are you here?"

The smile on Xie Zhou's face was soft, but his eyes were steady: "Cousin."

Pingyang felt frightened when she saw him. It had been so long, but she still remembered how he questioned herself with crazy eyes when Fuying fell off a cliff and was in danger during the winter hunting.

She looked at Xie Zhou angrily, but decided to let him go: "Isn't my cousin not coming?"

Xie Zhou's voice was light, and he cherished his words as if they were gold: "Aunt summoned me."

Pingyang's cheeks turned blue and white.

Her mother doted on Xie Zhou very much, even more than she doted on herself. She didn't understand that he was just her mother's nephew, so how could he be kissed by her biological daughter? Just like the father, he would not be as good as Fu Ying to his own princess.<

/p>

What an injustice!

She said angrily: "If I were to help that girl Ying celebrate her birthday, would my cousin still be so cold?"

Hearing the sound, Xie Zhou said nothing.

Pingyang refused: "I am your biological cousin, Fuying is just a biological mother with a low status, no..."

"Pingyang!" Xie Zhou interrupted her in a low voice, his eyes filled with displeasure.

Pingyang immediately turned his head and cried to the queen: "Mother, Xie Zhou bullied me! He is just a person with a foreign surname, but he dares to bully me!"

"Xiao Xuan, stop making trouble, what kind of person with a foreign surname can speak so ignorantly!" The queen's voice suppressed her anger.

Pingyang suddenly realized what he had said. He said that Xie Zhou had a foreign surname. Not only did he also mention his mother, they both had the surname of Xie...

"Mom, I'm going to meet guests outside." She was afraid of her mother. Compared to her father, she even felt that her mother was more intimidating. She didn't dare to act willfully anymore, so she ran away.

It was at this time that the fourth prince Fu Yan led Fu Mu into Liuyun Palace.

Fuyan only said a word, and Fumu followed him willingly.

Ah Ying invites you to the banquet.

When Fu Mu heard that Ah Ying had called him, he clapped his hands happily. Even though he hated Fu Yan, a bad guy, he still followed him.

The wet nurse who had taken care of him since he was a child told him more than once that he could not always pester Ah Ying. Ah Ying was different from him. She had to study the Four Books and Five Classics, chess, calligraphy and painting every day. Unlike him, she was always doing nothing.

He was unwilling in his heart and stubbornly went to find Ah Ying. However, a palace maid threatened him, saying that stupid diseases are contagious.

He was so afraid that he remembered these words firmly. He didn't want the kind and intelligent Ah Ying to be ridiculed like him. The fourth emperor's brother Fuyan once called him a fool in front of a group of civil and military ministers.

It is the stain on the Fu family.

Naturally, no one would like a fool. He lived in the most filthy and simple palace. No one except the wet nurse visited him, and even the eunuchs in the palace looked down on him.

However, one day a long time ago, he met Ah Ying. She was so beautiful and clean that he only dared to look at her from a distance. But the little girl opened her arms and stumbled towards him. There was no disgust in her eyes that he was used to, only disgust.

Smiling like the bright moon, she asked him in a sweet voice, "Who are you?"

He didn't dare to tell it, fearing that she would hate him like everyone else. They had a great time, but later, Ah Ying found out, but the way she looked at him made her even happier.

"So you are my Fifth Emperor Brother! Great, Aying likes Fifth Emperor Brother very much, so we can go out and play every day!"

For the first time, someone called him brother. From then on, he was no longer a fool supporting the animal husbandry, but Ah Ying's fifth emperor brother.

He missed Ah Ying so much, but he didn't dare to look for her. He was afraid that Ah Ying would contract his stupid disease, so he could only endure it. He could hide and cry secretly alone, crying until his eyes became achy and swollen, but he still missed her very much.

Ah Ying.

When Fuyan came to see him today, it was obvious that he had bad intentions, but he wanted to see Ying so much that he still followed him.

In Liuyun Hall, people drank happily, sang softly, and indulged in pleasure.

Fu Mu was thrown into the crowd in a panic, being pushed from left to right, stumbling, and in a state of confusion.

He went over one by one, helplessly grabbing the laughing people. Everyone was frightened by the sudden appearance of the enlarged handsome face, and naturally they were also very angry.

"Where is Aying?"

"Where is Aying?"

……

The urgent sound of crying resounded through the hall, and everyone whispered.

"Who is that fool?"

"Look at that foolish and foolish look, who could it be? The foolish fifth prince!"

"Why didn't he just stay in the palace and come out to quarrel with others? A good banquet was ruined by him!"

Fu Yan looked like he was seeing a joke and smiled maliciously. When he saw Fu Mu being knocked to the ground viciously, he took a sip of wine and whistled contemptuously.

Sure enough, Fu Mu crawled over in embarrassment on his hands and feet. He was like playing with a monkey, gesticulating and saying: "Stand up!"

Fu Mu got up with difficulty. He searched the hall but couldn't find Ah Ying. He could only hope that Fu Yan could tell him something more, so he asked angrily: "Where is Ah Ying? Are you lying to me?"

Fuyan held a bowl filled with strong liquor in his hand: "Drink it, and I will take you to find Ah Ying."

Fu Mu knew it was wine, and his face twisted in resistance: "Ah Ying doesn't allow me to drink."

Because of drinking, he suffered from stomach aches and vomiting. Ah Ying once asked him to raise his hands and make a promise that he would never touch alcohol again.

Fu Yan grabbed him and threatened him fiercely: "Do you want to drink? If you don't drink, you will never see Ah Ying again!"

Fu Mu was so frightened that he couldn't help crying, and his body began to tremble violently: "Fourth brother, I, I can't drink, Ah Ying won't allow it..."

Fuyan put the bowl forcefully against his tightly pursed mouth: "You gibbering idiot! Do you, a fool like you, deserve to be my brother? You have to drink this wine whether you want it or not!"

Then, he poured the wine into Fu Mu's mouth fiercely, and forcefully pried open his teeth with the edge of the bowl, and poured it in without stopping.

After downing a bowl of wine, Fu Mu's cheeks turned red, and it was all filled with wine. He choked and coughed violently, as if he wanted to cough out his heart and lungs, and his tears couldn't stop flowing.

Fu Yan bent over and laughed, pointing at him.

Everyone was aware of Fu Yan's bullying behavior, and they all pretended to be ignorant and turned a blind eye. From time to time, they would hear low laughter.

Fu Yan still felt that this was not enough, and even warned fiercely: "Fool, I warn you, if you dare to rely on Ah Ying again in the future, I will throw you into the forest to feed the wolves!"

With a "pop" sound, he dropped the bowl fiercely.

"Fourth brother!"
