Chapter 762: The father-in-law is upset
The sound of horse hooves and the rumbling of wheels attracted the attention of the courtiers in front of the palace gate.
Everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction the carriage was coming from.
I recognized it...
The logo on the carriage is that of Prince Yi's Palace.
This is King Yi arriving.
When Deputy Minister Zhang Jinyan saw that it was his princely son-in-law who had arrived, he stopped bowing and raised his hands when he met Duke Anguo Fu Peng.
Deputy Minister Zhang Jinyan merely straightened his body a little. As for putting his hands behind his back and sticking out his chest like other fathers-in-law when meeting their sons-in-law, Zhang Jinyan never dared to do that.
Although Xiao Jingyi is Zhang Jinyan's eldest son-in-law, Xiao Jingyi is a prince... He never dared to act like a father-in-law in front of the prince's son-in-law.
However, since he had a son-in-law who was a prince, he could still hold his head high in front of all the court officials, and he did so.
However, it was useless to puff out his chest, as no one was looking at him. All their attention was on King Yi's carriage approaching from a distance.
As the carriage came closer, the driver pulled the reins hard and the carriage stopped steadily.
Changgui, who was following the carriage, got off the horse.
Seeing the coachman neatly place a footstool on one side of the carriage, Changgui stretched out his hand, waiting to help his prince get off the carriage.
However, the curtain of the carriage was not lifted for a long time, and the prince... did not move!
Changgui first called out softly, "Your Majesty, we're already at the palace gate!"
There was still no movement in the carriage.
"My Lord...My Lord...
We have arrived at the palace gate, it's time to get off the carriage!"
Changgui raised his voice a little...still no response.
At this moment, Xiao Jingyi in the carriage wanted to bite Changgui twice... This tactless dog servant, doesn't he know that your master doesn't want me to get off the carriage?
Your master I do not want to get off the carriage;
I don’t want to see the way these courtiers look at me;
I don't want to face the Duke of Anguo and his two sons.
Can't I just hide in this carriage for a while?
Call, call, call...Where is the soul?
Changgui was not stupid. He called out twice, but when he saw that there was still no movement in the carriage, he thought... maybe the prince didn't want to show up and get off the carriage at this moment.
So Changgui shut his mouth and stood beside the carriage with his hands hanging down. He didn't dare to call "Prince" anymore, let alone urge the prince to get off the carriage.
The court officials in front of the palace gate were all puzzled...
Could it be that... His Royal Highness Prince Yi... is... is asleep?
Everyone was communicating with their eye contact... Is His Royal Highness Prince Yi asleep?
Puzzled, everyone's eyes were focused on the curtain of the carriage.
The Duke of Anguo and his two sons were the calmest. They just stared at the beautifully embroidered curtain of Prince Yi's carriage with the other court officials.
In the carriage, Xiao Jingyi mustered up his courage...but then his courage failed...
He mustered up his courage once again, reached out to lift the curtain and walk out of the carriage... uh... he pulled his hand back.
At this time, Deputy Prime Minister Zhang Jinyan came forward.
The person sitting in the carriage was his son-in-law, and facing His Royal Highness Prince Yi, he felt that he was different from the other court officials.
Then, the deputy assistant Zhang Jinyan came to the carriage in a grand manner and called out to the carriage in a gentle voice: "Your Highness, we have arrived at the palace gate. You should get off the carriage!"
No one in the carriage answered.
"My Lord, what's wrong with you?
Is the prince unwell?
Do you want to ask the imperial physician to come and see?
Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
Xiao Jingyi in the carriage was so angry that he gritted his teeth and frowned.
This old guy... does he really think of himself as the king's father-in-law?
Don’t you even consider whether your daughter is worthy of being my principal wife?
Sooner or later... I will throw her out of Prince Yi's Palace, kick her far away from me, and let her make room for Leng Rongyue!
As for you, the father-in-law...
"Humph!"
Xiao Jingyi snorted hatefully, mustered up his courage again, raised his hand to pull open the curtain, and walked out of the car.
Changgui hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to help.
"Ignorant thing!
I just felt dizzy for a while, so I just wanted to relax in the carriage...
You dog, you just keep barking!
It's really annoying!
If you continue to be so reckless in the future, I will just send you away!"
Xiao Jingyi glared at Changgui fiercely, then got off the carriage with his help without even looking at the second assistant Zhang Jinyan who was standing beside the carriage.
A group of court officials stood in front of the palace gate, including Xiao Jingyi's father-in-law, the deputy assistant Zhang Jinyan...
Your Highness Prince Yi...who are you scolding?
Is it really just scolding his minions?
Why does it sound like...even that so-and-so...even that so-and-so is being scolded?
Everyone's eyes turned to the deputy assistant Zhang Jinyan...
Zhang Jinyan's face turned red and white at this time.
Changgui was so shocked by the scolding...
I thought to myself: I didn’t do anything!
It was just that when the carriage arrived at the palace gate, I gave a reminder. This was the duty of a servant and I did nothing wrong!
Why is the master so angry?
Could it be that... the prince really fell asleep in the carriage?
Could it be that... I was the one who disturbed the prince first, and then the deputy assistant, Lord Zhang, came over and said something more, disturbing the prince's rest.
The prince was angry, but couldn't scold his father-in-law, so he took it out on a servant like him?
Ugh!
Being a slave is unlucky and a punching bag!
Changgui felt aggrieved.
But Changgui didn't know that his master's father-in-law was feeling even more aggrieved!
There is a prince's son-in-law who seems to be glorious and glorious, but...
Ugh!
Only you know the truth and cannot tell it to others!
