The third day of the fifth month is the 73rd birthday of Feng Minzhi, the highest-ranking royal family. He, who is not ostentatious on weekdays, invited all the princes this time. This news adds a lot of fire to the uneasy capital. If it were ordinary idle royal families, people might laugh, but Feng Minzhi is different. Even though he is a noble status as a prince, his current position as Zongzheng in the clan mansion is enough to make people frightened. Go or not, every prince is calculating in panic, even Feng Wuhen is no exception. Although he has only seen the serious old man three times, he is still afraid of his sharpness, as if he can penetrate everything.

On the day when Feng Min sent a banquet, the prefect of Shuntian even mobilized people and sealed up the entire street in front of the palace. Even the imperial officials here had to take a detour home. No one dared to complain or make a joke. Today's palace brings all the princes together. How can Shuntian Palace not be nervous? In order to prevent accidents, each prince brought dozens of people to the palace. Just look at the long string of sedan chairs and the followers who were not qualified to serve the palace, you can imagine how spectacular this scene was.

"Second brother came so early today." The princes who came here one after another smiled and greeted Feng, and seemed to be very friendly. Because the eldest son died early, the second prince Feng was naturally the oldest among these princes. Although the princes and the second brother who were born in a humble mother did not have any deep feelings for him, the well-informed ones even vaguely knew that the bloody incident a month ago was related to this second brother. But today the emperor's uncle rarely treats him. In order to gain a good impression, they all pretended to pay respect to his brother. Only Feng Wuhen knew best that there was no good banquet. Today, his cheap second brother might not be so easy to pass.

The second prince Feng did arrive here early, after the incident that day, he began to be anxious and had several plans to escape from the capital. However, he did not expect that the court would react in a dull manner. When he went to pay his respects, his father did not mention this matter at all. He thought that the matter was extremely secret, and the bloody incident occurred in the brothel, and he could pass it over with a jealousy. Even the damn memorial in the inner palace was gone. I thought that the father had not caught any real handle for him, so he breathed a sigh of relief, but he still stayed in a door, for fear of touching his father's bad luck. This time, Feng Minzhi invited the princes in the name of his birthday, so he could only do it perfunctorily.

However, Feng Wu regretted it as soon as he arrived here. He had a ghost in his heart. He wanted to take advantage of the other brothers' absence to explore the emperor's uncle's words. However, Feng Minzhi was also very cunning and made an excuse to wait until the princes came and talked together. He actually left a dignified prince in the hall. Although the servants were very considerate in terms of etiquette and hospitality, Feng Wu had already smelled a dangerous aura, and he could only hope that the clan mansion would not attack him at such an opportunity for brothers to reunite.

"Please to the uncle of the emperor." Feng Minzhi appeared slowly after all the princes arrived. A group of junior princes hurriedly saluted. Feng Wuhao, the twelfth prince, who was almost seven years old, followed everyone to pretend to greet him, but his eyes had long been fixed on the plate of crystal clear unknown fruit in the hall, looking salivating. However, the wet nurse who served him seemed graceful and calm. Although her appearance was only middle-aged and did not have any gold-clad jade, she did not have any servant appearance. Even Feng Minzhi couldn't help but take a look at it.

"Haha, today I can get you all to come to this birthday. It's a grand event. I just don't know how many opportunities I have in the future. Time doesn't wait for anyone. Seeing you full of confidence, it's the world of you young people, but I'm old." Feng Minzhi reached out and helped the princes and let the princes into the house.

"What is the Emperor's Uncle," the fifth prince Feng Wuzhao spoke first, "You are healthy, at least you can see your great nephew and grandchildren grow up. Besides, how can we, the juniors, do you do not have your tips?" This sentence is very loud. If you are an ordinary person, you can't hear the profound meaning contained in it. But you don't have the fuel-saving lamp here, so you can't understand the true meaning of Feng Wuzhao's words. It's not so pleasant to be pressed on such an ancestor above the royal family. Feng Wuzhao is proud of being the queen's legitimate son, but he has never been taught a lesson by this ancestor, so he is also full of anger.

Feng Minzhi smiled casually, but in his heart he was not worth it for the most noble prince. He competed with an old man who was dying. His mind was indeed too narrow-minded. No wonder the emperor did not directly make him the crown prince. "Hehe, I, an old man, can't compare to you young people. Well, let's not say so much, if you keep polite, the banquet specially prepared by the king will be cold, so let's sit down."

If it were the usual banquet, if it weren't for the emperor's personal decision, it would be quite troublesome to arrange the seats. But Feng Minzhi's seniority was there, and he said that he would not be able to sit in the order of seniority, so how could the others say it was hard? Feng Wuzhao had to barely settle in the fourth position. As for the twelve-year-old Feng Wuxi, of course, he sat down in the lower position with hatred, and his eyes kept glancing at the brother who was the same father and mother.

Feng Mun, who was sitting at the lower right of Feng Minzhi, was very happy. In his opinion, this was undoubtedly a good omen. If he could get the help of this prestigious old man, his life would be much better. Thinking of this, he quickly stood up, raised his glass of wine, and respectfully advised him to drink: "Today, I will pay my respects to you on behalf of the emperor. I wish you good luck forever and a hundred years."

Although the other princes were dissatisfied with Feng's attitude of believing in the boss, they all knew that it was best to follow him at this time and place, so they all raised their glasses and advised: "Please drink this cup for a long time!"

"Okay, okay! Since that's the case, I'll drink it all!" Feng Minzhi smiled and raised his glass and drank it all, with a hint of blush flashing across his face. "How can I be unhappy to see the royal family with so many capable men? Come on, you can do whatever you want, today is a family dinner, don't be obsessed with so many etiquettes!"

Despite this, these princes were all people who were used to living and raising their qi. They picked up the ones that suited their appetite and used them a few times. The chopsticks stopped at the same time, but their eyes were staring at Feng Minzhi. They didn't believe that the old man was just a meal.

Sure enough, after half a day of wine, the play meat came. Feng Min sighed and said half-truely: "If today's peace and peace are peaceful, it is a rare prosperous era in a century. As princes, do you intend to do something practical for the country and the country?"

These words were both rude and serious, and the princes were stunned. They originally wanted to show off their talents in governing the country in front of this uncle, who had no idea that Feng Minzhi would ask such a question. No matter how he answered, he would put himself in a very unfavorable situation. If he answered "yes", the old fox might ask if he would like to go to a desolate and remote place to serve the country; if he answered "no", unless he didn't want to be the prince again, the word would not be revealed in any case. After thinking about it, the meal suddenly became silent.
