If the sky does evil, it is still forgiven; if you do evil yourself, you cannot live.
Seeing the confusion on Li Yi's face, as if suffering from amnesia, as if he had completely forgotten what "perfume" was, the corners of Li Xuan's mouth twitched involuntarily.
"Ten taels of silver?" Li Xuan asked tentatively.
Li Yi glanced at him, looking unmoved.
In the past, when the family was too poor to open the pot, ten taels of silver was indeed a huge sum of money for him, so he didn't have to worry about food, but now, he didn't know how many ten taels of silver came into the account every day, and he could already do it Don't bow down for this little silver.
Seeing that his amnesia had not healed, Li Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "Recently I just found a good BMW horse...I'll give it to you!"
"Up to two bottles, is there more?"
Li Yi glanced at him and finally spoke.
It is not an option to always run around in the stockade and the capital city, always renting a carriage from a car dealership, it is also time... Let Li Xuan give him a horse.
Just because of talking too much, he lost a good horse worth hundreds of taels of silver. Li Xuan felt depressed. After leaving an invitation, he took two bottles of perfume and left sullenly.
"Two days later, the concubine's birthday banquet..." Li Yi opened the invitation, glanced at it, and put it aside.
Although he was not interested in the princess's birthday banquet, since Li Xuan had already sent the invitation, it was not good for him to lose face.
At most, he would eat and drink for a while, and he would be amazed when he was full. The style of Prince Ning's Mansion is so high, there should be no shortage of delicacies from mountains and seas. Speaking of which, he really doesn't know what good things those royal nobles usually eat...
Thinking of this, the feeling of reluctance in my heart eased a little.
It's just that Li Xuan was too stingy, and only gave one invitation card, otherwise a few more people would go, at least the cost could be covered.
Li Xuan is a free guy. Whether it's the portrait or the perfume, he did it all by himself. He just waits for the delivery. It's very light to knock him a horse.
…
Of course, the place where the concubine's birthday banquet will be held is Prince Ning's Mansion. Although Li Yi is not familiar with the road, he still knows the road when he was dragged here by Li Xuansheng last time.
The status of Prince Ning's Mansion is detached, and Prince Ning has to give face. Naturally, there will be many guests at the princess's birthday banquet.
The visitors were all prominent figures in Qing'an Mansion, large and small civil and military officials, and even a lot of people from the capital. From a distance, Li Yi saw Steward Wang standing at the door, greeting every guest with a smile, and by the way greeted them all. The invitations were inspected, and the gifts were accepted one by one and registered in the register.
"Keep your eyes open for a while. You only recognize the invitation card but not the person. It doesn't matter who comes, and you can't let him in without an invitation card." Taking advantage of his free time, Steward Wang gave a lecture to the servants who greeted the guests at the door .
The concubine's birthday banquet is a big event. In the palace tonight, there are many big figures. In addition to the dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital and the capital, there is also this scientific examination, a new scholar from Qing'an Prefecture. The concubine's birthday banquet is one of them. Inviting people of insight to talk about state affairs is also the highlight of tonight.
The welcome area at the door is a very important part, if something goes wrong, no one can afford it.
Listening to Steward Wang's lecture, several servants quickly agreed.
Steward Wang has been stealing the limelight these days, and he is expected to become the number one seed to become the Chief Steward of the Palace after the old butler retires.
"Hey, Mr. Li, you are here. The little prince has been waiting for a long time." When Steward Wang saw Li Yi approaching from a distance, the smile on his face became wider, and he hurried over.
This time, his welcome to Li Yi was indeed sincere.
Ruyilu's business has brought huge profits to the Palace, and the spirits just launched have attracted the rush of many people who love wine, and the popularity is even higher than that of Ruyilu.
Just the profits brought in in the past few days have already made Steward Wang laugh from ear to ear.
In the past few days, Steward Wang seemed to see mountains of gold and silver throwing at him.
Even the prince, he praised the spirits a lot, and praised him in front of everyone. These days, Butler Wang even walks floating.
I thought that in this life, at most, I could only be a small foreign affairs steward. It was Li Yi who brought him hope. If it weren't for the fact that the little prince had a close relationship with him, Steward Wang would have wanted to make an alliance with him and sworn obeisance. For the opposite sex brothers.
Although the previous visitor Wang Steward was equally warm and polite, he had never seen him so eager. Several servants of the palace who were in charge of welcoming the guests couldn't help being surprised when they saw this.
The few guests who had just delivered the congratulatory gifts and hadn't stepped into the gate also turned their heads to look at this scene, with surprise on their faces.
This person is young, but the housekeeper of the palace is so polite to him, could it be that he is some kind of big shot
"Steward Wang, long time no see." Li Yi smiled and cupped his hands, and handed over something in his hand.
After thinking about it, I also felt that there was no gift to give, so let's give something more expensive. The palace is not short of it, and he is reluctant to buy it. It is more novel, and he is afraid of stealing Li Xuan's limelight. Of course, the main reason is that He doesn't bother...
It would be better to write this congratulatory poem by myself, full of sincerity and unconventional.
A birthday speech can be finished in half an hour, and it took a while for the ink to dry. I found a shop to frame it, and brought it over for dinner... to participate in the birthday banquet of the palace.
"Sir, please show your invitation card."
A man hurried over, took something from Li Yi, and said with a smile.
"Things that don't wink, let's go. Does Mr. Li need an invitation?" Steward Wang reprimanded the servant with a sullen face, then looked at Li Yi, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, I will take you in, the little prince said , as soon as you come, let me take you to find him immediately."
Seeing Steward Wang bring the young master in, the servant who was reprimanded was stupefied.
Didn't Steward Wang just say that no matter who comes, he must show the invitation card? Didn't he agree that he only recognizes the invitation card and not the person
The palace is very lively tonight.
Along the way, Li Yi saw many men and women in gorgeous costumes talking and laughing at the tables in the courtyard. Among them, there were many Confucian scholars and officials with extraordinary bearing. In an open space next to them, there was a singer singing with a melodious voice...
This atmosphere is somewhat similar to the poetry meeting that I participated in.
Maybe the ancients liked this tone at the banquets. After following Steward Wang's turn left and right, after going deep into the palace, the voice of the people gradually became quieter.
