Suddenly, the atmosphere in the hall became even more condensed.

    The eyebrows of Emperor Qingping twitched, and the originally indifferent tone suddenly became unpleasant: "What did you say, it's damaged?"

    Xue Yan knelt on the spot and said lightly, "Yes."

    He lowered his eyes, Jun Huailang could not see his eyes and demeanor. But I saw that everyone in the hall looked at him with different expressions, and the concubines on the opposite side even covered their mouths with a handkerchief and whispered.

    Xue Yan didn't realize it.

    "Do you know the origin of the jade arrow?" Qing Ping said sharply. "It was built after the founding of the dynasty by Taizu, with the weapon he used to fight the world as a model. There is no second pair in the world. You said that it was damaged when it was damaged?"

    Speaking, he slapped the faucet on the armrest, and the sound was not loud, but the entire hall fell into silence.

    Even the queen, who was sitting beside her with a worried expression, dared not speak.

    Xue Yan was silent.

    Jun Huailang sat diagonally behind him and could see his tall and straight back. He was only a fifteen-year-old boy, and he was clearly in a desolate and pitiful situation, but he had an uncontrollable energy.

    He didn't expect that the tyrant who killed innocent people indiscriminately in the future would take the blame for a trivial little eunuch.

    The Qing Ping Emperor did not wait for his apology and response for a long time. He lowered his head and could only see the black hair of the young man. generally.

    The Qing Ping Emperor was even more angry, and said: "You still have no intention of repenting? Destroy the imperial gift at will, and disrespect the Taizu, today I have to punish you!"

    Jun Huailang couldn't help but glance at Xue Yan again.

    Then, he heard Qing Pingdi say: "After the banquet, I will go to receive twenty big boards, and next time, I will not spare you lightly!"

    Everyone in the hall changed their expressions.

    The court rod used in the palace is extremely heavy, even an adult man will be maimed if he can't stand fifty boards. Twenty court sticks are already considered a very severe punishment. Even if the **** before the emperor made a mistake, it was rare to receive such a severe punishment.

     

    The queen on the side couldn't sit still and couldn't help but speak out to persuade Emperor Qing Ping. But seeing the angry look on Emperor Qingping's face, he swallowed the words again.

    "My son leads the order." Xue Yan saluted.

    Yi Jieyu, who was next to her, covered her lips with a handkerchief, and said indifferently, "Go down when you receive the order, don't make your father unhappy here. You Yan County, you always have to abide by some rules, the same mistake, you can't make it again in the future."

    Jun Huailang actually found these words a bit harsh, he couldn't help raising his eyes and looked at Xue Yan again.

    As long as he is in the situation of any other prince in the palace, he can seek revenge with him without any doubts. But he just like this picture that everyone is trampling on at will, but it makes him unable to do it.

     Bullying the weak is not what a gentleman does.

    At this moment, Xue Yan got up, and Jun Huailang unexpectedly bumped into his eyes.

    He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly felt a little guilty, and turned his eyes hastily.

    He didn't see it, Xue Yan's eyes paused on him for a moment, the corners of his lips raised indiscernibly, evoking a mocking arc.

    The young master who has never seen the world. he thought contemptuously.

    On the road just now, she glared at herself arrogantly, as if she had provoked him somewhere, like a fierce and proud little peacock.

    However, Xue Yan also knew that he was born to be disgusted by people, and everyone looked at all kinds of eyes, but none of them were good ones.

    But just now, this young master was still staring at himself, his eyes were complicated, but not malicious, like pity and guilt.

    Is it because I didn't help you just now, I regret it later?

     

    She looks pretty. Without the domineering posture just now, his eyebrows and eyes were quite gentle. Wrapped in a thick cloak and a big cloak, he was originally noble and cold, but he avoided his gaze and was rather cramped.

    Xue Yan turned around and walked out.

    He looked contemptuous and thought rather viciously, now that he is in the capital, he has a lot of things to do, so he has no time to spare. If he was still in Yan County, he would definitely bully the little peacock and let him see him again in the future, even if he didn't dare to hide.

    —

     

    Jun Huailang was not in the same seat with his parents, so he took care of Jun Linghuan alone. Fortunately, his sister was very relieved, and he was able to separate his heart and notice the movements of the princes.

    The Duke of Yongning is the head of the princes, and next to them are the places where several princes sit. Now the emperor has a total of seven princes, the third prince died of illness, the seventh prince was young, and there were a total of five princes sitting on the seat.

    The eldest prince is now in his twenties and has served in the court, surrounded by colleagues who came to toast. The second prince was sitting on the case next to him, but Jun Enze actually left the table and stayed by his side, the two were whispering something. The fourth prince is Yi Jieyu's son. He looks like a handsome gentleman. Although he doesn't say much, he teaches people like a spring breeze.

    Beside him, Xue Yunhuan was surrounded by a group of aristocratic family members, toasting and compliments endlessly. Xue Yan was the only one, there was no one around, and those sons of aristocratic families who passed by him had to look sideways and didn't say much.

    At this moment, the second prince suddenly opened his mouth and said to Xue Yunhuan with a loud voice: "The pot throwing at this year's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet has been cancelled, do you know?"

    Jun Huailang saw that his smile was full of schadenfreude, and he held a few points of victory.

    And the little **** standing behind him and waiting for him was a little familiar. Jun Huailang looked closely, and the **** was clearly the one who took the lead in bullying Xue Yan just now, and was also the culprit of the damage to the jade arrow. culprit.

    ...It turns out that the second prince did it?

    Jun Huailang admired his boldness for a while. But on second thought, when Xue Yan first returned to the palace, it was the second prince who gave him the disarming power. If he wanted to be born again and again, the second prince became more and more confident.

    Over there, those aristocratic families are not so well informed. However, they looked forward and found that there was indeed no utensil for throwing pots in the hall, so they all asked curiously: "There is really no, second highness, do you know why this year is?"

    The second prince smiled meaningfully.

     

    "Because someone broke the jade arrow!" he said.

    The disciples of the aristocratic family suddenly burst into an uproar and began to talk about it. Jun Huailang looked at Xue Yan out of the corner of the eye, and saw that he didn't realize it, just sitting in his seat and drinking tea calmly.

    Someone asked: "How can it be broken? I heard that Your Majesty didn't give that pair of arrows to His Highness?"

    Another humane said: "Yes, is it the Fourth Highness?"

    Although the sixth son Xue Yunhuan is the direct son, he does not like to read.

    But I saw the fourth prince smiled faintly, and said: "Where do I have this ability, you all look at me." After speaking, he only cared about the food and had nothing to say.

    A group of family members started talking again.

    "Whose hands is that?" they asked.

     

    The stars go down to earth? Interesting to say, there is only one constellation up and down the whole palace, that is the evil star.

    Suddenly, everyone's eyes fell on Xue Yan.

    Xue Yan raised her eyes inadvertently, and her amber eyes looked at them quietly.

    Suddenly, those aristocratic families seemed to have seen some kind of monster, and they avoided their eyes one after another, as if if they looked at him, they would be killed by the thunder tribulation sent by the gods.

    The second prince burst into laughter, and Jun Enze also laughed.

    Jun Huailang felt uncomfortable, pursed her lips and turned her eyes away.

    At this moment, Xue Yunhuan, who was sitting in the group, didn't bother to watch the second prince's monkey-like performance, and stood up impatiently. This little bully always does what he wants, he turned around and left without saying hello to anyone.

    He walked over to Jun Huailang's case, buttoned the table top, and said, "Go, go out and breathe."

    Jun Huailang naturally wanted to go with him, but Jun Linghuan was still eating, so he couldn't leave her alone.

    At this moment, the fourth prince Xue Yunhong got up and walked over, with a warm and peaceful expression, and said to Xue Yunhuan with a smile: "Sixth brother, let me accompany you to go out for a walk. It's time to put the Kongming lantern on , the prince can go to Taiye Pond to find us in a while."

    Jun Huailang didn't have any impression of him, but he didn't have any distaste for him, so he nodded and said with a smile: "The two of you will wait for me in that moment."

    Xue Yunhuan was eager to stay away from the second prince, so he did not refuse and followed Xue Yunhong.

    Seeing this, Jun Linghuan thought that he had delayed his brother to go out to play. He originally had a piece of cake in his hand, so he quickly put a big mouthful in his mouth and said in a murmur, "Huan'er It's ready to eat right now!"

    Jun Huailang was amused by her and laughed, but afraid of her choking, she hurriedly fed her some tea and let her swallow the cake slowly: "Don't worry, be careful of choking."

     Said, and gently followed her back. He is ten years older than Jun Linghuan, and his second brother is far away from Yumen Pass. Since he was a child, he has often taken care of his younger sister, and he has long been familiar with it.

    I didn't notice, this scene fell into a pair of indifferent amber eyes.

      For children, feasting is boring, and the most interesting part of the Mid-Autumn Palace banquet is to go to the Taiye Pool and set off the lights.

    Jun Linghuan also thought about this. When she was full, Jun Huailang took her and led her to Taiye Pool.

    

    With just a stick of incense, the two came to Taiye Pond.

    At this time, a lot of people were standing by Taiye Pool, a full moon hung in the dark blue sky, and several Kongming lanterns were flying into the sky, reflecting the lights reflected by the lake. Dejun Linghuan whispered "Wow" and dragged Jun Huailang to the side of the pool.

    A group of people surrounded the pool. As soon as they approached, Jun Huailang heard the voice of the second prince.

    "Isn't that the fifth one? Come here and put on the lights with the brothers?"

     

    Even if he was as gentle as Jun Huailang, he couldn't help but feel that this person was a bit ill-fated.
