In March, the sky became warmer and less rain.
The earth dragon in Anyin Hall burned carefully for two days, finally dispelling the moisture inside.
However, there was a chill in the room for a long time.
All the servants in the room seemed so deserted because of the absence of the prince and the absence of a person in the room.
But only Meng Qianshan knew that the reason for the chill in the room was indeed that the prince was not there, but it was not because the prince was missing, but because the prince was staying elsewhere, but one person was left behind.
There was one person left. Although the daily diet and daily life were the same, he was a person who breathed a breath of being untouched by strangers.
Because of this, Meng Qianshan has been in fear for several days, for fear that one of them will not be served well and will be angered by this ancestor.
Until the day when Huo Wujiu was about to go out.
This day was the invitation letter sent by Chen Ti's wife, asking him to enjoy the flowers. Although the original invitation letter had been returned by Jiang Suizhou, it was re-sent because of the emperor's fate at the Lord's Qianqiu Banquet a few days ago.
Meng Qianshan didn't dare to forget, he had to wait on Huo Wujiu to wash and change his clothes early this morning.
Huo Wujiu naturally didn't let him do it. Meng Qianshan had to put away his clothes and accessories, waiting for Huo Wujiu to dress properly.
When the hour came, there was a carriage from Jing Wang's Mansion, all the way up to Chen Ti's mansion.
Colleagues who are officials in the same dynasty, especially those in the same department, the post-house ladies often come to host banquets where you and I go, and they have the right to socialize.
This is extremely common in all dynasties and dynasties, but today's banquet at Chen Ti's Mansion is completely different from the past.
After all, the rich and powerful in the capital don't know, what kind of mouthful is His Royal Highness King Jing's good? Jing Chao also pays attention to being a man and woman. The ladies gather together for tea and snacks. Can't you ask a man to come
Ordinary officials can't do such a thing. Only Chen Ti, such an old oilman who was accustomed to Pang Shao, knew best that he wanted to please his master and he had to give up his face.
And his wife, naturally, is going to advance and retreat with him.
Chen Li stood in front of the mansion early in the morning, feeling anxious in his heart.
Her husband had already told her a few days ago. Bringing the concubine from the Jing Palace to the palace as a guest is not to make friends with them, but to cause them to make trouble and make a fool of themselves, and it is best to make trouble in the ears of the sage.
Chen Li, as a lady of the world, has been raised in the back house since he was a child. Before marrying, he hadn't even seen a few foreign men. Now that she suddenly asked her to invite a man to the mansion, and asked him to make a fool of himself in his mansion, Chen Li was panicked for a while and didn't know what to do.
After all, what can a man make in his back home
Those who came to enjoy the flowers were all official wives. Chen Li didn't dare to hurt someone's reputation because of this.
Therefore, Chen Ti, who hates iron but not steel, saw her cringe and scolded her in anger, and asked his concubine Qin Liu to come forward with her to host the banquet.
This is to entrust Qin Liu with the affairs of Prince Jing's Mansion.
Mr. Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief, and led Qin Liu to wait in front of the door, waiting for the guests to come.
When it dawned, wives from various families came by in their carriages one after another. Qin Liu greeted them one by one, and Chen Li led the maid waiting at the door.
After a long time, a carriage turned the corner of the street, Lulu drove up and stopped in front of Chen Ti's mansion.
Look at that standard system, which is unique to the palace.
Chen Li's breath held his breath, with a smile on his face, greeted him.
I saw that the young eunuch sitting outside the car jumped out of the carriage, instructed the coachman and the servant to lift the curtain, and lifted a wheelchair from the car.
There is a tall man sitting in a wheelchair.
Chen Li's eyes only floated to him cautiously and swept away in a hurry.
I saw that although the man had his eyes down slightly, with an indifferent expression, he had a very handsome and good appearance. The sharp eyebrows, the angular face, and the scar like a sharp edge across the eyebrows are like sharpened swords that people dare not look at.
It was like the general who had read the script in her boudoir, and came out alive.
Chen Li hurriedly retracted his gaze, not daring to look more, only carefully staggered his eyes: "Ms. Huo is here? All the ladies and wives are here, and Mrs. Huo is invited to enter the house with her concubine."
The man in the wheelchair didn't raise his eyes, let alone respond to him.
The eunuch who followed him was courteous and smiled and said, "I'm troubled Mrs. Chen."
Chen Li nodded, supported by the maid, and led the way.
—
The Chen Mansion Garden is not too big, and there is a pond in it, and the lotus season has not yet arrived. There are flowers and bonsais that are common in Lin'an City, and there is a lively garden.
At this time, a lot of people had already arrived in the yard. From a distance, the clothes fragrant on the temples, Yingying Yanyan, were more eye-catching than the flowers and plants.
The wives in Beijing also knew each other well, and after everyone came, they had a lively conversation.
At this moment, a small wheelchair sounded from the entrance of the courtyard.
For a while, everyone was silent, and there was a brief silence in the garden.
Several eyes fell on Huo Wujiu, and they moved away again, as if they hadn't seen him.
The ladies in the courtyard also know in their hearts.
This Master Chen would go to the camp, and in order to make the emperor happy at the Qianqiu banquet, he wanted to get the man in the back house of the Jing Palace to enjoy the flowers. The one who got it was not only a man, but also a man who was captured from Beiliang, fighting on the battlefield and killing people like hemp.
The banquet was divided into men and women, and the ladies had never seen this Huo Wugui. But just from his fame a few years ago, he could tell that it was probably Qin Shubao's appearance like a door god who stuck on the door.
But I didn't expect...
Some close officials' wives exchanged glances calmly.
This General Huo... was born so handsome
However, no one dared to look at the people around. Master Chen brought this person, most of them didn't have a good mind. They needed to stay far away, so they must not be affected, and they would become filthy.
Thinking of this, everyone staggered their gazes, as if they hadn't seen Huo Wujiu.
It was a young lady who tugged on the sleeves of her friends in her boudoir, and whispered: "Such a person is really jealous of talents. God wants to challenge him like this..."
The friend next to her quickly grabbed her, not allowing her to talk nonsense.
Qin Liu on the side saw that all the people who wanted to invite were coming, so he asked all the ladies to sit down in the garden.
She has been in the house of Chen Ti for two or three years. Although she has been mixed up because of the cowardice of the mistress, she has been unable to find a chance to show up. Today's incident is an opportunity that Master Chen has won for him, and is it not her Qin Liu's opportunity? She must have a good face at today's banquet, and then do what he wants to do for the adult, so that everyone can see who is the adult's good helper.
Chen Li's heart is weak, so she is not as clever as her. After a while, Qin Liu shuttled between the wives, arranged them in various positions and asked them to sit down, and then asked the maids to come forward and serve tea and snacks.
After all these arrangements were made, Qin Liu walked in front of Huo Wujiu gracefully.
"Mrs. Huo An." She smiled and saluted Huo Wugui.
Earlier, she secretly looked at the person in the wheelchair. He looks very well born, and has an elegant temperament, and I heard that he is also very good at fighting, but it is a pity that he is only an insulted prisoner of war, and still a handicapped.
Since I want to climb up with this incident today, I have to offend him and step on him.
Qin Liu said with a smile in his heart, and said with a smile: "In the past, I only heard about Madam Huo's talents, but I didn't expect it to be better than seeing. I came to our house today, although it is my own sister, but no matter what Regardless of the difference between men and women, the concubine arranged a farther position for the wife, and asked her not to blame it."
Huo Wujiu naturally ignored her.
Meng Qianshan behind smiled and said, "Thank you for this auntie."
Qin Liu covered his lips and smiled and said no need, led them to a table by the pool, and asked Huo Wujiu to take a seat there.
At this moment, the maid who poured the tea came forward.
Qin Liu thought about a thousand times and had already figured out a way. She stretched out her hand naturally, took the teapot in the maid's hand, smiled and walked to Huo Wujiao's side, and poured him tea quite naturally.
But he didn't see it. Huo Wujiu wrinkled his brows inaudibly with his eyes down.
The next moment, Qin Liu exclaimed expertly and knocked over the tea. The ladies were dazzled by the startled breath, and they saw that Qin Liu seemed to be hugged by someone. He was actually insulting others and fell straight on Huo Wujiu.
Everyone changed their faces.
But seeing Huo Wujiu sitting there, his eyebrows were tightly twisted, and his hand turned to the side while pressing the wheelchair, cleverly avoiding her.
As a result, Qin Liu's originally intended to be forced by others turned into deliberate reliance, and was exposed to everyone without reservation.
Immediately afterwards, she leaned in the air, one of them couldn't stand firmly, and fell straight down and plunged into the pond.
—
The woman's exclamation was startled.
The maids jumped out of the pond to rescue her, and there was a chaos all around. Only Huo Wujiu quietly pressed his wheelchair, stepped forward a few steps, and glanced at the pond with a cold face.
As early as when she leaned toward him, he had already noticed that the bug trick was wrong.
Meng Qianshan next to him was frightened and dumbfounded.
After a while, Qin Liu was rescued, and was tightly wrapped in a robe and bedding. Chen Li hurried forward, asking someone to send her to rest, but seeing Qin Liu who was rescued struggling, he was reluctant to forgive.
Qin Liu knew that he would never do anything. She just lost her hand and has already paid the price, and now she must not neglect any benefit.
Everyone's eyes fell on her.
I saw her crying: "How can Mrs. Huo do such a thing, not only is she frivolous, but she also pushes her concubine out of the pond!"
Everyone around could see that she was framing her, but everyone knew it well that no one dared to stand up and pierce her.
Knowing that this method worked, Qin Liu played more and more vigorously.
"My concubine has lost my virginity, I have no face, goodbye to my lord! You let me go, let me hit and die here, it's clean!"
Chen Li's standing beside him tremblingly.
She probably knew what Qin Liu was thinking. She is making such a fuss today, and the wind can be heard immediately, and tomorrow, the adults will have a reason to use this as a guide to face the holy.
She wanted to stop, but knew that to marry a woman, she had to obey her husband's orders.
She glanced at Huo Wugui carefully.
Seeing him sitting upright, expressionless, with a cold expression, quietly watching Qin Liu's farce.
It's like a steel gun that no one can bend.
Chen Li's family had never seen a military officer in battle, but at this moment inexplicably felt that the indomitable general should look like this.
But God is jealous of him, and he must be in deep danger. At this time, naturally no one can help him...
But at this moment, a concierge hurriedly ran all the way.
"Ma'am...Ma'am!" the concierge shouted.
Chen Li turned his head and saw that the concierge stopped at the gate of the garden, looking panic and at a loss what to do.
"What's the matter?" Chen Li asked hurriedly.
I saw the concierge hurriedly said: "Hall of King Jing is down!"
The author has something to say: Jiang Suizhou: I think I am handsome, I fell from the sky, and the hero saves the United States. At this time, I need a little BGM.
Huo Wujiu: Do you dare to come? 【acid】
