"Thank you."

Seeing Princess Jiu go, Jin Tao patted Xie Wu's shoulder and called out.

However, Xie Wu did not respond.

"Xie Wu, how are you?" Jintao panicked, and quickly helped Xie Wu up, almost crying, "Xie Wu, you must be careful!"

"Couldn't there be poisonous wine in the cup of the Nine Princesses?"

Just when Jin Tao suspected that Xie Wu was really poisoned, she suddenly felt her hand being gently held.

At this moment, Jin Tao looks at Xie Wu again, her eyes are clear and the corners of her mouth are smiling, she doesn't look like she was delirious just now.

"Scared me to death!" Seeing Xie Wuwu, Jintao breathed a sigh of relief, and pushed Xie Wu away angrily, "When is this, are you still in the mood to joke? I thought something really happened to you."

Xie Wu originally planned to tease Jin Tao, but in the end he almost made people cry.

Xie Wuzi knew that what he did was wrong, so he frightened Jintao, and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Seeing that Jintao still ignored him, he spread out his hand as if thanking him for not asking for credit, and His Highness Seventh Prince's badge lay quietly in his hand.

Jintao's eyes lit up, and she said in surprise, "You got it?"

The few of them plan to take advantage of the Concubine Rong's birthday banquet to be held in the palace tonight. Naturally, there will be many people and the guards will be more relaxed. Then they rescue their parents from the dungeon.

It's just that the only problem now is that they need His Royal Highness's waist card to successfully bring people out of the dungeon.

His Highness the Seventh Prince is always cautious in doing things, so it is not easy to get a waist card from him.

Fortunately, Jintao saw His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince hand over his badge to the Ninth Princess yesterday in the Ninth Princess Palace, and asked the Ninth Princess to keep it for him.

Maybe His Highness the Seventh Prince also wanted to prevent chaos at the banquet, and those who cared would use his badge, so he simply gave his badge to the Ninth Princess. Even if he was designed by others, others would never get his Badge.

It's just that His Royal Highness was misunderstood by his cleverness, and this scene happened to be seen by Jintao.

It is much easier to get the waist card from the Ninth Princess than from the Seventh Highness.

Originally, Jintao was going to find the right time to steal it from the Ninth Princess, but Xueer was staring at their little maids sweeping the floor almost all day long, so she never found the right time.

Unexpectedly, Xie Wu got it first.

Jin Tao pretended to be casual and said: "It seems that the beauty trick really works!"

Xie Wu chuckled softly, in fact, he had already seen that Jin Tao was jealous, since Jin Tao approached the pavilion.

However, he was actually very happy that Jin Tao was jealous of him.

It's just that now is the time to talk more, so Xie Wu deliberately didn't pick up Jintao's words, but said: "Taotao, you first go to Mr. Wu with your waist card. It's important to save people, and I have to wait nine more Princess for a while, lest she find out that the badge is gone."

Jintao asked back, "Why are you procrastinating?"

Xie Wu thought for a while: "I'll play by ear, don't worry, I'll be fine."

In fact, to be honest, when Jin Tao saw Xie Wu sitting with Jiu Gongzhu, she felt a little uncomfortable. However, Jiu Gongzhu had a vicious mind, and Jin Tao was more worried about Xie Wu.

Jintao warned worriedly: "Then you must be more careful."

"Okay." Xie Wu replied in a low voice, and when Jintao was about to get up and leave, he hugged Jintao tightly as if reluctantly.

It's just that this hug was very short, fleeting, before Jin Tao had time to hug Xie Wu back, Xie Wu had already let go of her.

Jin Tao only heard Xie Wu whispering in her ear.

"Don't worry, I will guard myself like a jade."

***

The palace is brightly lit.

The emperor and Concubine Rong sat together behind the screen, which was embroidered with thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, which was magnificent.

The eunuch next to the emperor announced in a high-pitched voice: "The emperor's dragon is not healthy and cannot see the wind, so I use this screen to cover it."

Through the screen, everyone could only vaguely see two figures sitting behind the screen.

Seeing this, everyone knelt down and said in unison: "I wish the emperor a long life and a prosperous country, and I wish the imperial concubine good luck and a long life."

"Everyone loves to be flat."

The emperor's voice was a bit hoarse, he was out of breath, and coughed a few times in a low voice after speaking, it really sounded like he was sick, and he was still seriously ill.

Concubine Rong walked out slowly and faced the crowd.

Concubine Rong's dress tonight is even more dignified and luxurious: "Everyone doesn't have to be too particular about the rules tonight, just be casual, treat it as a family banquet, and just have fun with everyone."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stood up: "Father, I need to talk to my father about some matters, and I beg my father to allow my son to meet you."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been restrained all the time, because today is Concubine Rong's birthday, the restraint was lifted.

Hearing what His Royal Highness said, all the ministers couldn't help but focus on His Royal Highness.

Since the emperor fell ill, they have not seen the emperor for a long time, and now it is a critical moment for the country's internal and external troubles, and the people in the court are also divided and panicked.

Tonight, they also want to see if His Highness the Crown Prince can meet the Emperor successfully.

"Your father is also afraid of getting sick, so he has been reluctant to see you." Concubine Rong said with a smile, "Besides, at this banquet today, we don't talk about political affairs. What is waiting for your father to be in good health?" Let's discuss it later, how about it?"

"Yes." His Highness the Crown Prince bowed his hands obediently to Concubine Rong, "However, the emperor's body is ill, and the minister is supposed to serve the bedside, so why would he be afraid of getting sick. The minister often wants to exchange his body, why not Let the sons and servants serve the father and emperor with a little filial piety."

"No need." The emperor's voice sounded at the right time, "It's enough to have Concubine Rong by my side."

"With mother and concubine serving by my father's side, what else should His Royal Highness worry about?" The Seventh Prince smiled aggressively, "Could it be that His Royal Highness doesn't trust Mother and Concubine?"

"Of course not." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince frowned, "I'm just worried that the concubine mother is too tired, and I want to share some of the burden for the concubine mother."

Concubine Rong smiled and praised: "His Royal Highness is still sensible and considerate, but..."

Concubine Rong turned to face the emperor across the screen, and said coquettishly: "The emperor has been ill for many days, and he is used to taking care of his concubines, and he also likes to be taken care of by his concubines. will not adapt."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Rong turned around and said to His Royal Highness, "Your Highness, don't worry too much. I understand your mood very well. The imperial doctor said that the emperor will recover immediately. At that time, even if your father and son talk all night, I will The palace will never stop it again."

The imperial concubine and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince stopped him together, and His Royal Highness knew that he would not be able to see his father smoothly tonight.

His Royal Highness glanced at the little prince sitting in the distance.

The little prince shook his head lightly at him.

In the current situation, it is useless to say more, they can only think of other ways.

His Royal Highness can only nod: "Then everything will be arranged by the concubine mother."
