Xu Changge's small eyes were very straightforward, and the undisguised expectation was directly poked into Qingdi's eyes, causing Qingdi to slightly raise his lips.

"Relax."

Emperor Qing lent Xu Changge the opportunity to serve tea, and made a mouth shape for Xu Changge, with indescribable arrogance and confidence in his eyes.

"Ok?"

Raising his head to catch up with the romance between Qingdi's brows and eyes, Xu Changge was actually insane.

It turns out that her Ah Lan also has such a flamboyant side...

"Alan..." Xu Changge involuntarily changed his address, and murmured, "Your eyes are so beautiful."

"Really?" Qingdi straightened up steadily, and the smile on his lips deepened, "Do you only say 'good-looking' when you praise people?"

Xu Changge remembered the grudge: "Don't you only use 'good-looking' when you praise people?"

Xu Changge remembered clearly that half a month ago, Emperor Qing had told her that she would look good in the future.

"The way is simple." Qing Di frowned, not feeling wronged at all, "I think the word 'good-looking' is good."

"But I don't think it's good." Xu Changge looked around, saw no one was looking at this place, and continued to ask Qingdi: "Good Alan, can't you help me think of a new word?"

"Okay. Go back and write with you." Smiling to restrain Xu Changge's small movements, Qingdi raised his eyebrows slightly and swept across the atrium.

At this time, the banquet has not yet started, and only a few people are seated in the atrium.

Seeing that someone was already seated, Qingdi began to look for Changle in the atrium.

The first one on the left is not, the second one is empty, and the third one is not... After looking at each one, Qingdi's smile stopped.

Changle didn't seem to attend the banquet?

Or was it because the banquet hadn't started yet that she couldn't be found?

.........

Emperor Qing focused on looking at the people in the courtyard one by one, and was surprised to find that many of the guests sitting in the back were important ministers when she was in power.

Of course, it will be decades before these people become important ministers, and now they are just supporting roles in the night banquet of the Xu Mansion.

Looking at the familiar, young faces in front of him, Emperor Qing couldn't help but marvel at Xu Fengjiang's ability to recognize talents.Who would have thought that these people in the partial seats in front of them would be in charge of one side in the future?

But why did that person appear at the banquet?

Staring at the ordinary face in the crowd, Emperor Qing wanted to ask Xu Changge, but was interrupted by a thick male voice.

"Banquet—"

.........

Emperor Qing missed the opening of the banquet due to distraction, and directly entered the important part of the banquet due to distraction.

Qingdi knew in his heart that the focus of most night banquets was not on how the banquet decorations were, how the singing and dancing were, and how the meals were.The core of the banquet is actually the people who attend the banquet.

In the next hour, Qingdi sat on the low stool brought by Qi Luo, admiring the well-behaved geisha's dance.In addition to performing dances, Xu's meals also follow a well-regulated route.

Of course, to say that Xu Mansion's meals are quite satisfactory does not mean the status and demeanor of the ingredients and the fixed cooking methods.

Picking up a pair of chopsticks to taste the good-tasting steamed sea bass and Xu Changge, Qingdi said unhurriedly: "Try it."

"Uh..." Surprised that Emperor Qing would bring vegetables with her, Xu Changge was stunned.Having eaten so many meals with Qingdi, this is the first time that Qingdi took the initiative to pick up vegetables with her.Although Qing Emperor sometimes brought her vegetables on weekdays, those were different from today...

On weekdays, she was the one who pestered Qingdi to give her.

"Qinglan—" looked at Qingdi happily, Xu Changge wanted to refuse, but saw that Qingdi had already delivered the silver chopsticks to her mouth.

The look in Xu Changge's eyes warmed Qingdi's heart.

"Bite." Qingdi gave an order to Xu Changge softly.

After living in the world for dozens of years, Emperor Qing can naturally understand Xu Changge's eyes.

But Qingdi also remembered that the girl in front of him didn't move her chopsticks after serving the food.Why doesn't this girl move her chopsticks?Apart from the hindrance of his right wrist, all Qingdi could think of was that this girl wanted her to have a good taste of Xu Fu's meals.

"En." Xu Changge responded softly, and then obediently followed Qingdi's instructions.When the delicate taste spread between his lips and teeth, Xu Changge forgot about the night banquet.

"Qing Lan..." Xu Changge wanted to hold Emperor Qing's hand, but Qi Luo snatched him away.

"Princess Lan?" Qi Luo respectfully went to pick up the silver chopsticks in Emperor Qing's hand, and said politely, "Leave these trivial matters to Qi Luo."

"Qiluo..." Xu Changge was a little dissatisfied.

After thinking about the identity of Emperor Qing, Xu Changge felt that he was a little too much.yes!The smiling woman holding her chopsticks in front of her is not Xu Changge's close servant.

Biting his lip and Qi Luo nodded, Xu Changge was a little unhappy.

"Let's leave it to my princess." With a faint smile on Xu Changge, Emperor Qing gave Qi Luo a plausible reason, "Some dishes have already been moved."

After speaking, Qingdi fed several untouched dishes to Xu Changge one by one with a smile on his brows.

"Continue." Qing Emperor said softly.

Xu Changge stuck out his tongue at Qiluo when Emperor Qing lowered his head to pick up vegetables.

Seeing that Emperor Qing always cared about Xu Changge, Qi Luo silently remembered Emperor Qing's kindness in his heart.Some are good, maybe Changge still doesn't understand.But the Xu family will not forget anyone who treats the Xu family well.

……

Qingdi and Xu Changge were feeding each other with chopsticks. Seeing that the bottom of several dishes had bottomed out, Qingdi was convinced that he guessed Changge's taste correctly.

After stopping his chopsticks to call the servant girl behind him to serve tea with Xu Changge, Qing Emperor took advantage of the pause to look at the atrium again.

Xu Fengjiang's position for Xu Changge is excellent.A bead curtain not only separated the curious eyes of the guests at the banquet, but also made it very convenient for those inside the curtain to peep outside.Qingdi looked out with Xu Changge's light, and easily watched the whole banquet.

Changle hasn't come yet.

……

Waiting for Changle to arrive, Qingdi chatted with Xu Changge to pass the time: "Do you know everyone at the table?"

"Hmm..." Xu Changge glanced up, then raised his hand and pointed at the guests at the table and said, "I know you. Well, counting from the right, they are Mr. Liu, Mr. Hu, Mr. Zhao, Mr. Chen, and Mr. He." ...from the first one on the left and counting out...uh..."

Xu Changge looked at the vacant seat on the left and blinked: "Guess?"

Guess?Qingdi looked to the left following Xu Changge's line of sight, and seeing that the first place on the left was empty, Qingdi guessed: "That could be my place!"

"Yes!" Xu Changge nodded in satisfaction, "Alan, you are the princess, so Daddy will not neglect you."

"Then what about the one that came down?" Qingdi asked in a low voice, pointing to the strange face on the left.

"Hmm..." Xu Changge bit his lip and said doubtfully, "I don't know him either."

"That's Prince Feng. The couch next to him is reserved for the little princess."

Qi Luo took the tea handed over by the servant girl in a timely manner, and continued to serve Xu Changge and Qingdi.

Emperor Qing picked up the tea, and Xu Changge stretched his neck to look for Changle in the atrium.

That bad girl hasn't come yet?

Xu Changge frowned and stared at Duke Feng for a while.

At the table, Feng Junwang's condition was not very good.Although he often drank alcohol, the panic in his eyes could not deceive anyone.

What did that bad girl do? Didn't that girl want to see her?

Xu Changge wandered into the sky full of doubts.

Thinking that the girl was afraid that he would not dare to come, Xu Changge turned around and said coquettishly to Emperor Qing who was drinking tea, "Alan, my hand hurts."

"Isn't it the wrist injury?" Knowing that the girl in front of him was thinking about Chang Le, Qing Di smiled and asked Qi Luo, "Why didn't that girl come?"

Qi Luo said: "The servants have privately said that the little princess thinks that the make-up girls in Xu's mansion are too rough, so she insists on making troubles by herself..."

"Is the make-up on Chang Ge's face?" Qing Di was curious.In Emperor Qing's memory, Chang Le never seemed to put on too serious makeup.

"Hmm..." Qi Luo thought about it, and said affirmatively, "Yes."

Before Qi Luo finished speaking, Xu Changge clapped his hands and laughed, "If it's as Qi Luo said, then that bad girl will become famous later!"

"Huh?" Emperor Qing was puzzled.

Xu Changge pointed to the guests at the table to explain his confusion: "Qinglan! Remember the faces of the masters at the table! The masters on the right seat have all lectured to me, and they are all notoriously pedantic. ...According to their usual preferences, they must not like the bad girl's style. Those on the left seat..."

Xu Changge paused, and seeing that Emperor Qing was listening carefully, he continued pointing to the men next to King Feng and said, "Those masters on the left seat are very open-minded, but they are very picky..."

"Picky?" Emperor Qing raised his eyebrows, and Xu Changge added: "It's just a poisonous mouth. The biggest hobby of those masters in their lives is to find fault with eggs. If bad girls are not used to listening to sarcastic remarks, maybe they will become enemies with those... "

Xu Changge leaned into Emperor Qing's ear and explained the mystery of the guests at the banquet: "Of course, even if she can stand it, she will be disdainful by those on the left, but will be disdainful by those on the right... There is no way, Dad said, since ancient times, literati have looked down on each other, These literati with official status are even worse. Of course, the masters on the left and right are also famous in Qingdu for not dealing with each other..."

"To be able to bring such a group of people together at a banquet...that father is really wonderful! But..." Emperor Qing looked at the harmonious atmosphere in the banquet, and said softly, "Why are there so many masters at this banquet? "

"Uh..." Xu Changge didn't expect Emperor Qing to pay attention to such a strange point, "This..."

Fearing that Changge would not be able to understand for a while, Qi Luo answered, "Princess Lan doesn't know something..."

"Let me tell it to Ah Lan." Xu Changge snapped back, "Although Daddy is an extremely talented minister, he has a habit that he has developed since he was a weak crown——inviting well-educated scholars from Qingdu to a banquet at the beginning of every month." Drink. In the early years, this banquet was just a private banquet, and most of the people invited were high-ranking children. But as my father took charge of the Xu Mansion, this banquet was also divided into odds and pairs. In December of a year, poor scholars are invited in one month, and high-ranking scholars are invited in two months. .Today happens to be two months."

"Single pair?" Qing Emperor's eyes became dark.

Xu Xiang is really an interesting person who can come up with such a way to recruit talents!

It's just that this banquet didn't seem to last until she was in power.

Why did this banquet die?

Emperor Qing found that even if she started all over again, she would still encounter many things she didn't know.

"Is Duke Feng also a great Confucian?" Emperor Qing looked at Xu Changge.

Xu Changge denied: "Although King Feng became famous early, he is definitely not a great Confucian."

After denying it, Xu Changge felt that his evaluation of Feng Junwang was quite pertinent.

But in this way, this banquet seems to be different from what she introduced before.

Xu Changge was a little distressed.

If Duke Feng was not considered a great Confucian, how could he appear at the banquet?
