"What is the situation like during a court debate?"

Xiao Jingyang started acting innocently again, with a confused look on his face, as if he really didn't know.

"In a few days, won't it be the year-end festival? At that time, the prince will need to kneel down and caress the dress of Concubine Yue to show his filial piety." Meng Zhi explained to him why there was this court ceremony.

Debate.

In fact, it was mainly because Mei Changsu had already analyzed this problem for him yesterday.

"Isn't this how it usually is?" Xiao Jingyang had a puzzled look in his eyes, as if he couldn't understand something good.

"The prince also has an aunt, and the prince's aunt has not passed away now." Meng Zhi saw Xiao Jingyang also looking incomprehensible, and suddenly he felt like showing off in his heart, and wanted to play it off. After all, he was in Meizhou yesterday.

Changsu didn't understand this when he was in front of him.

"If we can really be filial, shouldn't caressing the queen's dress reflect our filial piety even more?"

"Concubine Yue was formerly a first-class imperial concubine, and she is qualified to stand with the queen at the emperor's left and right during the year-end ceremony."

"So the Minister of Rites took this as a reason to write to His Majesty to request that the Yue concubine be restored to her position as a noble concubine, as a show of courtesy."

"As a result, during the morning court today, Li Yushi, the censor under King Yu, stood up and impeached the Minister of Rites in the court. The reason was naturally that the Minister of Rites was the person in Daliang who should understand etiquette the most, but he never corrected himself.

It was a mistake that led to the chaos in the rituals for so many years."

"The prince was naturally dissatisfied, so he came out to argue."

"King Yu took this opportunity to start a court debate to explain this etiquette clearly."

"Humph!" Xiao Jingyang sneered when he heard this explanation.

"It seems that my uncle is still a little unhappy."

"Yeah!" Meng Zhi nodded.

"When I left the palace just now, His Majesty did not look very good. I think he must have been angry."

Xiao Jingyang didn't want to express any opinions on this. Anyway, he raised these two sons by himself, and now even if he makes him angry, it is his own business.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore." Meng Zhi didn't want to talk about this matter anymore, so he asked instead:

"Why did you come to see me today? Did something happen to Xiao Shu's place? If anything happens, we will go there now."

"Nothing happened. I was at Su Zhai just now." Xiao Jingyang talked about why he came here in a daze just now.

"But while I was chatting with Brother Shu, King Yu suddenly arrived. There was nothing I could do, so I jumped over the wall and ran out."

"I jumped over the roof without thinking for a while. After landing, I walked a short distance and ended up here."

"You grew up in this capital, how could you still get lost?" Meng Zhi stood up with a smile, took out some fruit and vegetable desserts from the cabinet on the side, then came back and sat down again.

Meng Zhi also likes to eat sweet things, which seems to be a little hobby of martial arts practitioners in this world.

Xiao Jingyang likes to eat this, and Meng Zhi certainly knows that.

Xiao Jingyang was not polite at all. He picked up a mung bean cake on top and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Is this mung bean cake from Han Yunzhai? It's really good. It would be great if there were shortbread cakes these days." Xiao Jingyang felt the sweet and greasy feeling in his mouth and nodded with great satisfaction.

"You really have a mouth full of food. Yes, I'll get it for you later." Meng Zhi also smiled, stood up, and took out another plate of pastries from the cabinet.

"Are you here today to eliminate my inventory?"

Meng Zhi was teasing, but he was really generous and took out all his inventory.

Just buy it when you like it. Giving your children good food is what they should do as adults.

Xiao Jingyang is still a child in Meng Zhi's eyes.

After all, he hasn't reached adulthood yet, so he can barely be called a child.

"Of course not!" Xiao Jingyang felt a little choked. After all, although the mung bean cake was sweet, its overall texture was soft, and it was easy to feel dry mouth and choke.

He picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.

"Eat slowly, I don't plan to compete with you." After Meng Zhi said this, he quickly went out and asked someone to pour a cup of tea.

"Okay, okay! It's okay." Xiao Jingyang gently stroked his chest and swallowed the food he just had.

"Let me tell you, I suspect something will happen on New Year's Eve, and it may be aimed at you."

"Hey? Who else in this world can target me?" Meng Zhi heard this, his eyes turned cold at first, and then he smiled confidently.

He is very aware of his own strength and even has absolute confidence.

The reason why Xuan Bu occupies the first place on the Langya List is simply because as the commander of the first-grade forbidden army, he cannot leave the capital without permission.

As long as Meng Zhi leaves office later, he will naturally find a way to go to Dayu and have a meeting with Xuan Bu.

"..." Xiao Jingyang twitched the corner of his mouth. Of course he knew that Meng Zhi was thinking wrongly.

He was afraid that someone was coming to cause trouble for him.

There are really very few people in this world who have the courage to fight against him.

No wonder he has such a smile.

"No one is stupid enough to fight with you." Xiao Jingyang said helplessly:

"Although your martial arts are indeed very strong, have you ever thought about your soldiers, or whether the people close to you have such high martial arts?"

"This..." As soon as these words came out, Meng Zhi's expression changed and he immediately became serious.

Meng Zhi is a very emotional person, which can be seen since he even gave up his position as commander of the Imperial Army for Mei Changsu.

If someone wants to harm a brother or relative he likes in order to harm himself.

Not only would Meng Zhi not forgive the murderer, he would never forgive himself.

"Be careful on New Year's Eve." Seeing his expression, Xiao Jingyang understood that Meng Zhi already had a rough idea in his mind. At least what he said next would be kept in mind.

"I have received news that Tianquan Villa has invited a large number of martial arts masters to enter the capital. The purpose is currently unknown."

"But with such a large number of martial arts masters coming to Beijing, except for the fact that Langya Pavilion found out the news in advance, the government did not receive any news."

"It can be seen that there must be people from above who are involved behind the scenes."

Xiao Jingyang once again put the blame on Langya Pavilion's information channel. This was really a sure thing, and no one would doubt it.

"Who does Tianquan Villa belong to? I guess I don't need to explain it to you again."

"And the only major event that is likely to happen recently, apart from the year-end festival, is New Year's Eve."

"The year-end festival is their only chance to restore Concubine Yue. They will definitely find a way to make it happen smoothly. Naturally, this will not be their goal."

"Then it's possible that so many people are coming to Beijing just to do something on New Year's Eve."

"I now seriously suspect that their purpose is to intercept the team that enjoys New Year's vegetables on New Year's Eve, or else they are members of the royal family after attending the New Year's banquet."
