Hearing this, Zhao Ze looked up, only to realize that the area he was in was near Hu Hai's palace.

Zhao Ze hasn't had a private chat with Hu Hai since the last time they parted ways.

I just saw it at the welcome banquet last night.

Zhao Ze asked the eunuch, "What do you want from me, Your Highness?"

The eunuch seemed a bit embarrassed, "Your Highness, you will know when you go, even if His Royal Highness has something to say, it is inconvenient to tell me."

In the palace, Zhao Ze was not afraid of any disturbances Hu Hai would create.

He followed the eunuch to the pavilion he mentioned.

From a distance, he saw Hu Hai who was drinking tea under the gazebo.

Now there is still about an hour before the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, and Hu Hai will definitely have to attend the banquet at that time.

Seeing him sitting leisurely now, it seemed that he didn't care about the upcoming birthday party at all.

But think about it, because Zhao Ji has always disliked Ji.

There will be suppression in the dark and in the tomorrow.

As Hu Ji's son, Hu Hai naturally didn't like the Queen Mother either.

It's just that the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet still has to be done to save face.

Zhao Ze had just entered the gazebo when Hu Hai looked up when he heard the movement.

The two looked at each other, and Hu Hai smiled and said: "Brother Huang, you are here, sit across from each other.

Zhao Ze sat opposite to him as he wanted.

Hu Hai was injured a few days ago and has not fully healed, and now his leg is still half-slung on the stone chair beside him.

As if to show his sincerity, he bravely poured Zhao Ze a cup of tea.

The tea in front of him was still steaming, it was obvious that Hu Hai had just sat down not long ago.

Zhao Ze didn't drink the tea, and asked directly: "Eighteen Brother, why did you ask me to come here? Wait a minute, it will be the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, are you sure you don't want to come early?"

Now in the past, although the banquet has not started, the venue has already prepared for singing and dancing.

There are also many civil and military officials at the scene, and this is the right time to win over.

Hu Hai, on the other hand, smiled relentlessly, and took a sip of the tea in his cup, "Don't worry, now that you've been so noisy, it's better to drink tea in this gazebo and listen to the sound of bamboo."

Seeing him leisurely (cfff) leisurely, if someone didn't know, he would have thought that he would be an idle prince.

Only Zhao Ze knew that Hu Hai's ambition was no less than his own.

This time he picked up the tea, took a sip and confirmed that the tea was the top-quality green tea brought from the south of the Yangtze River.

People in the tea palace don't like to drink this kind of tea very much. It tastes bitter, and it takes a long time to get a hint of sweetness.

But Hu Hai prefers it, so the palace has always transported goods from Jiangnan to the palace.

Zhao Ze took a sip, and put down the tea in his hand without realizing the mystery inside.

At the same time, he said: "If the eighteenth brother has nothing important to say, I'll make a photocopy first if you want to talk about it.

At this moment, Hu Hai stopped him and said, "There is no rush over there, what are you doing so quickly, Brother Huang?"

As he spoke, he filled Zhao Ze with tea again, "You just treat it as if you are here to accompany me. I'm going to Longxi County in a while, and I won't be able to see you again."

Zhao Ze didn't know whether to laugh or cry, seeing that he seemed to be trying to lose his temper, he had no choice but to agree.

I thought that Hu Hai would always show some fox tails or say some cruel words when he saw him this time.

After all, I broke his power in Jieshou and let him go to Longxi.

But I didn't expect him to be the same as before, following him closely, saying something to complain about the boredom of the Xianyang Palace, but not mentioning Jieshou and his going to Longxi.

Zhao Ze also followed him, quietly listening to his complaints.

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and it was almost time for the banquet to arrive.

The two had to go to Saltwater Palace.

Just before going, Hu Hai's daughter-in-law found him.

After saying something in his ear, Hu Hai then said to Gen Zhao Ze with an apologetic expression on his face: "Brother Huang, you have to go first by yourself."

"I still have things to deal with here, and soon, I will go there by myself after I finish."

After speaking, he hurried away with the maid, and Zhao Ze had to go to the banquet alone.

Just as he stepped out of the gazebo, he saw an unexpected visitor.

Seeing Hu Ji, Zhao Ze greeted her with a smile, "Concubine Kui."

Hu Ji had a cold face, and said calmly: "I didn't expect to meet the eldest son of the emperor here, I wonder what you want to do with Hai'er?"

Hu Ji, who was killed by Zhao Ze, was going to fight in Longxi County, Hu Ji was very worried. If she hadn't cared about Zhao Ze's identity, she would not want to talk to him.

Zhao Ze could see that he was unwilling, but he didn't take it seriously, he just said, "It's not me looking for my eighteenth brother today, it's my eighteenth brother looking for me."

"But now the banquet is getting late, I have to go to the banquet, so I won't explain to the imperial concubine."

He will leave after speaking.

Hu Ji behind her followed, but diverged from Zhao Ze at the fork in the road and chose another road.

As Hu Hai is Yingzheng's concubine, she naturally wants to attend the Queen Mother's birthday.

It's just that concubines and civil and military officials cannot sit together.

They held a banquet in another place, in the backyard of Saltwater Palace.

There is only a wall between the civil and military officials.

Zhao Ze came to the Saltwater Palace, and as soon as he stepped in with one foot, several officials came up to talk to him.

"Why did the prince come so late today, we have been waiting here for a long time, and originally wanted to talk more about water control with the prince.

"Yes, we admire the prince very much, but we don't have time to chat more with him."

"The prince has such an achievement at such an age, it's really beyond the reach of us people."
