An imperial decree was issued in the palace asking her to attend the Laba Banquet. Ping An didn't want to go at first, but the messenger said that it was a banquet held by the emperor, and all the princes and concubines were present.
Ping An thought about it, anyway, he hadn't been out for a long time, so he just took it easy.
After Shui'er got the news, she immediately started to help her prepare clothes for the banquet, and finally picked out a red fox fur cape, for fear that she would be frozen.
Ping An didn't bother to care about these things. On Laba day, Meng Huo stayed with her at home and planned to go to the palace with her to attend the banquet at night.
Pingan knows that Meng Huo has joined the Ministry of Industry recently, and he is so busy that he can't see anyone.
"Why are you so free today? Don't you need to do anything?"
"I can't finish things. I want to accompany you. I haven't been with you for a long time." Meng Huo actually wanted not to do things to accompany her, but she refused to speak, and he was too embarrassed to take the initiative to say Stay with her.
Today, he finally found an excuse for himself.
"I have nothing to do, in fact, you can pick me up at night." Ping An was afraid of delaying his business.
"... You don't like me to accompany you that much." Meng Huo's expression became a little depressed.
"Of course not. I just think that you are a prince, and being able to enter this kind of place shows that your father thinks highly of you."
"Don't think about it too much. The Ministry of Industry is just an unimportant department. Father didn't intend to pass on the throne to me. Now father should prefer Brother Six." Meng Huo said.
"Really? How do you know?"
"I entered the Ministry of Industry, and brother Liuhuang is in charge of the Ministry of Punishment. To put it bluntly, I am a house builder! What do you think?"
"This is just right, let's play chess, I'm tired of playing mahjong." After Ping An finished speaking, he asked Shui'er to bring Go.
Shui'er went to get it immediately, and after setting it up for the two, they brought tea and snacks, and the husband and wife began to play chess.
The level of the two is about the same. Ping An didn't like chess very much before, but Dad liked it, so she could only accompany him. She learned a few moves smartly.
It is not difficult to deal with Meng Huo at the moment.
Concubine Chu and two concubines came to pay their respects, and Ping An asked them to wait outside and treat them with delicious food and drinks.
She didn't go to see these three until the game was over.
Meng Huo also came out together, but his face was not very happy, he was having a good time with his wife, if someone came to disturb him, of course he would be unhappy.
Seeing that Meng Huo was also there, the three quickly got up and saluted him, and then saluted Ping An.
"Okay, please go back when you're done, don't keep running to the princess if you have nothing to do." Meng Huo waved these people down.
The three of them looked at each other, saluted quickly and stepped back.
Ping An sat down, reached out to pick up a piece of snack to eat, and said, "Would you make people too sad, these three are also your wives."
"My wife is only you. I don't recognize anyone else. After a few days, I will let them go." Meng Huo directly stated his plan.
Ping An looked thoughtful.
"What are you thinking?" Meng Huo asked.
"I was thinking, you can't just send people away, they have to leave willingly, otherwise, if they don't want to leave, they cry with you, make trouble with you, and hang themselves, what should you do? Can you really drive people to death? "
Ping An had thought about this problem a long time ago, but she didn't let herself think too much before it came to the fore. It's useless to think so much now, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain.
