Chapter 147 Palace Banquet④

"That's good, that's good." The emperor laughed, but it was not good to ask Huangfu Yan when he would come back, after all, today is a state banquet, and the princes, ministers, and envoys are all watching.

Although the princes and Huangfu Yan are brothers, Huangfu Yan has been closed for a long time, so he is not familiar with them. This is the first time they have sat together in these years.

The second prince has always been favored, and he looks gentle and refined. When the emperor finished talking to Huangfu Yan, he took the lead in raising his wine glass and said to Huangfu Yan: "The third brother is in the mansion all the year round, and he has a birth share with the brothers. Today It's rare to get together, but you can get three glasses of self-punishment."

Probably only the second prince Huangfu Ling dared to say this, and he was the only one, no matter what he said, the emperor would not blame him.

Huangfu Yan's vague provocation to Shang Huangfu Ling was still indifferent, Yu Zhuo, who was waiting behind him, had already replaced the wine on the table in front of Huangfu Yan with water, Huangfu Yan picked up the wine glass and said with a light smile : "Second brother said yes."

He raised his hand and was about to drink, but Huangfu Ling said: "Wait a minute, third brother."

Huangfu Yan paused for a moment, then looked at Huangfu Ling, with a faint smile still on his face.

Huangfu Ling curled his lips into a smile, picked up an unused wine glass, poured a glass of wine, and handed it to Huangfu Yan himself: "The third younger brother is not in good health, but the older brother doesn't care enough, so I'm going to apologize to the third younger brother here. Now, this wine should be poured by my brother himself."

Huangfu Ling said "brother", but the eldest prince Huangfu Yu was also brought in. Huangfu Yan is the third child and has two older brothers.

Besides, when Huangfu Ling said this, he said that the brothers should pour a glass of wine for Huangfu Yan.

None of the emperor's sons are human beings, Huangfu Ling is the leader, and the others naturally cannot lag behind, especially the eldest prince, Huangfu Yu, who was confined by the emperor for more than half a year, and he was only allowed to come out during the Chinese New Year. Furious, Huangfu Ling walked in again at this moment, poured a glass of wine and handed it to Huangfu Yan: "The second brother is right, the third brother, you have to drink this wine, otherwise you will not accept brother Our apologies."

The two elder brothers poured wine, and the fourth prince and fifth prince couldn't pretend that they didn't look at anything, so they also poured wine and sent it to Huangfuyan's table.

Now, there were four glasses of wine in front of Huangfu Yan.

Yu Zhuo followed Huangfu Yan, he couldn't help being impatient, sure enough there was an undercurrent raging everywhere in the palace, this was forcing His Highness the Crown Prince to drink.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in good health, so if he can not drink alcohol, he will not drink. These few people are clearly looking for trouble!

However, Huangfu Yan didn't take it seriously, he expected that his brothers would not let him go easily, it was just a few glasses of wine, if he didn't drink it, he would be really stingy.

Putting down the glass in his hand, Yu Zhuo hurriedly stepped forward to take the wine glasses from the First Prince and the Second Prince, and put them on the table in front of Huangfu Yan.

If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince picks it up in person, no matter who picks it up first, the other one will find trouble.It doesn't matter if he is a servant, after all, he went to pick him up, and the two princes can't fight in front of so many people.

Huangfu Yan casually picked up a glass of wine from several glasses of wine, raised his hand to signal to the princes, and said: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."

Before the wine was brought to his lips, An Xipin who was sitting opposite them suddenly stood up.
