Zhen Guo Princess GL

Chapter 398 Inner Banquet

Strange to say, before the dispute between A Huan and I, the courtiers had no dispute over whether the crown prince should be Li Dan or Li Rui.In their eyes, the primary purpose was to recover Li Tang, and it seemed that as long as a male surnamed Li became the emperor, it didn't matter who the emperor was or how qualified he was.But after our dispute, the situation suddenly changed subtly.Originally, most of the ministers who were only in the name of Li Dan, who were arguing for Li Dan’s marriage, education, etc., suddenly remembered that my mother was more than just this "grandson". Di Renjie "met" me in Taiwan Province, " By the way, he mentioned the marriage of Shouli; Li Zhaode, the imperial censor, asked his mother to spare no expense in land and divide up his grandchildren; Du Jingjian, who was newly recalled to the capital, asked Li Bin's youngest sons to be married and envoys to come out of the court; When he asked him jokingly, "The king has the heart to judge the eldest son to Meizhou", he replied flatly, "Your Majesty's beloved son is still in Luling, why can't the eldest son of the minister be in Meizhou".

I don't know how much their support for Li Rui is from the heart, but it is an indisputable fact that Li Dan is far inferior to Li Rui. Fen Nengcheng and Li Rui's family were not sure what to do after Li Dan came to power. They had nothing to do, so they could only secretly teach Li Dan to curry favor with his mother while asking someone to send a letter to Cui Mingde. Cui Mingde responded as quickly as possible. I was afraid that it would not be delivered safely, so I entrusted it to Cui Xiu in a letter at home, and Cui Xiu asked me to meet and have a long talk in Changliu - I planned to leave the palace today, that's why.

However, early in the morning, I first met Fonu to send a letter, talking about the monk, and then there was a letter from Wan'er, talking about this casual internal banquet, and Wu Yizong's inadvertent mention that I was going out for a "meeting" Therefore, I gave up the matter of going out of the palace. I specially changed into light homely clothes and went to Qiyun Palace with a smile--my mother is old and tired, and doesn't like to wear cumbersome ordinary clothes, especially in Waner's place. Since Wu is entering the palace to celebrate, he must be well-dressed. If I am alone in a short shirt and light clothes among the crowd, it will be a different kind of intimacy. Compared with Wu, I am more like a family member.

A Huan may not know about Qiyun Palace, but she also wore homely clothes by coincidence: a light purple blouse and a light green skirt.Wearing shallow scarf and wearing a jade belt, Shouli will not be too clean to displease her mother, but she will not be as rich and ostentatious as Wu Chengsi.

Her kung fu of observing words and expressions is really top-notch. After hearing a few words from me, she took up the conversation lightly and skillfully, blocking the way for Zhu Wu to defend Wu Yizong.From now on, not only the reputation of King Hejian's "confused" is solid, but also a grudge should be planted in the mother's heart--not afraid of one small thing, not afraid of two, three, or four things, but afraid of accumulating over a long period of time, accumulating and destroying bones, And such a small matter, the mother has already planned to let it go, and others can't mention it again, let alone explain it.

Wu Chengsi wanted to bring me down like this, and I also planned to bring him down like this.I don't know how much he can understand my movements. The so-called "meeting people" in the morning is just a casual slander and it turns out to be true, or it is based on clues, or there are close people by my side—the last possibility Not too much, after all, the people around me are not only screened by me, but also guarded by A Huan and my mother, but this does not prevent me from showing this possibility to my mother, after all, I live in the palace most of the time now, spying on the I'm spying on Gongye, my mother will never tolerate such a thing happening under her nose.

I was smiling from the beginning to the end, and accompanied my mother to this internal banquet - it was indeed not a banquet at the beginning, but it was Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi asking for mother's favor, saying that they wanted the family to get together and talk to their aunt, Later, A Huan and I joined in the fun, and my mother simply called people around again, Princess Anding, Li Dan, Li De, Li You... relatives of the Fanwu and Li families, and even the important members of the Yang and Zheng families. All the guests were invited, and the banquet hall was moved from the Qiyun Hall to the Feixiang Hall, and Shang Shan was asked to tidy up a lot of delicacies temporarily, and took out jars of fine wine from the imperial cellar. From dawn to night, everyone had a good time.

I am getting impatient to stay up all night, but this time I insisted on staying with me all the time. My mother couldn't hold her hand at the second watch, so she got up and went to the side hall to take a rest. As soon as she made a move, Princess Anding, A Huan, me and Wu Chengsi's wife all rushed to her. Going over there, because I was the closest, I took advantage of it, and Wan'er supported my mother on the left and right. Wan'er fetched water to wipe her mother, and I took off her shoes and socks. Stretched out, stroked my shoulder, and said with a light smile, "A Wan." When she saw Wan'er came over with a handkerchief, she lowered her head to look at me, then smiled and said, "It's Taiping."

I straightened up calmly, bowed and said: "Mother." Afraid of mother's embarrassment, I hurriedly lowered my head and dared not look at it, but my mother generously pulled me to the couch and sat down, and beckoned Wan'er to come with me Sitting side by side, supporting each other, looking at us again and again, I saw her drunken eyes, and boldly asked: "What are you looking at, Ma'am?"

The mother smiled and said nothing, stretched out one hand, Wan'er caught her immediately, helped her up, sat cross-legged on the couch, put her arms around Wan'er with one arm, and me with the other, and said with a smile: "You two are similar in age and have similar interests. If they are similar, and have no husband and son-in-law, they should be friends and love each other."

I smiled and said, "That must be true. Speaking of which, Shangguan Chengzhi once taught me, he is my master."

My mother shook her head and smiled, "There's no one else, so there's no need to tell your mother such nonsense." I saw that she was staggering when she was sitting, and she was already very drunk, so I hurriedly said, "Ma'am, let's take a rest and raise your mother." Energize yourself and throw dice with your son, or else your victory will be invincible." She still wanted to wink at Wan'er, but Wan'er got up without waiting for me to say anything, helped her mother fall down, and covered her with the quilt. The mother squinted at her, and muttered: "It's hot." When Wan'er saw it, she didn't mention it, but said: "Don't sit on the ground, sit up."

Wan'er glanced at me, and sat next to the edge of the couch as she said. I saw that it was not the place where I had been staying for a long time, so I left in a hurry. When I was about to go out, my mother closed her eyes on the couch again and said: "Wang Ri Da Chao, you follow me!" Go to the same place." He paused, looked at Wan'er by the door, Wan'er shook her hand at me, I quit, and went back to the banquet, my heart was beating violently, I raised my glass and drank half of it in one go , I felt a little calmer, and when I turned around, I saw A Huan coming, clinking glasses to me, and said with a smile: "What good news did Er Niang know, and she smiled so brightly?"

One sentence made the Zhuwu brothers turn their heads to look at me. Wu Sansi raised his glass and approached me, smiled at me and said, "Is it mine just now? Twelve Lang just heard about it by chance and mentioned it to me. It doesn't suit me. My aunt said she wanted to call you, but I was afraid that I would make a trip to make her old man unhappy, so I talked to my aunt one more time and apologized to my cousin."

Wu Chengsi and Wu Yizong beside him both looked gloomy, but they also raised their glasses to me, Ah Huan said with a smile: "They are all from my own family, Er Niang doesn't think they care about it."

I also smiled: "That's natural." I clinked glasses with the three of them one by one, and after a while, I made another toast to Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi, and also made a toast to several princesses. A Huan also led the salute Zhuwu made a circle, sat among several princesses, and talked affectionately about facial fat, mouth fat, scriptures, and lamenting Buddha. It was boring to sit alone in observance of etiquette, so he moved to my side and chatted with me A few words, I saw him talking absent-mindedly, as if he was thinking about something, I deliberately asked a few words, asked him how he was doing in military studies, and talked about his recent experiments, his eyes gradually opened up, and after a while, through the words Yin, coyly said to me: "Aunt... Shouli wants to ask Auntie something." Moved the seat a little closer, and whispered: "Are those people who Auntie brought to make alchemy still there? Can you?" Lend me some time?"

My heart sank, and I looked up at him carefully: "What do you want these people to do?"

Shouli didn't notice my gaze, pulled my sleeve and said with a smile: "Didn't Auntie say alchemy can be used as 'gunpowder'? I tried several times in military school, but because I really didn't know about alchemy, I couldn't succeed." , if some warlocks who know Dan come to help, maybe it can be developed.” He raised his head innocently and looked at me with a smile: “The border is fighting, and Master Dugu is also at the front line. If there is such a thing, I think there will be no more So many soldiers died."
