When I returned to Yanqing Palace, the banquet was almost over, and the officials were saying goodbye to each other.
"Where did Lord Jun go, you left me waiting for so long!"
"Master Ma! I'm rude!"
Playing Tai Chi with these people, I saw a sword-wielding man named Xiao passing by.
"Xiao..."
I was about to call him when someone was one step ahead of me.
"Commander Xiao! I have been admiring your style for a long time, and I finally have the chance to meet you today. I am truly fortunate!"
It's that Lord Ma, he really wears thousands of clothes, but he doesn't wear ass! Behind him is Huang Yingjie.
However, Commander Xiao ignored them and just glanced coldly, and Ma Chenggong's smile suddenly froze on his face.
At this time, Commander Xiao seemed to cast a glance at me. I hurriedly smiled to show my friendliness. With a solemn expression on his face, he walked out quickly.
"This Xiao Chuyi! After all, it's not an illegitimate child! It's too shameless to have a cold face all day long!"
"Shh! Mr. Huang, please speak in a low voice!" Ma Chenggong hurriedly grabbed Huang Yingjie, who was smooth and cautious in his life.
"Humph!"
Huang Yingjie fled away, but I was curiously calling for success.
"Master Ma! Just now, Master Huang said that Commander Xiao was an illegitimate child. What's going on?"
"Well..." Ma successfully hesitated and hesitated.
"Why does Mr. Ma think that this official will talk nonsense?" I deliberately sullen.
"No, no! How dare you be an official!" If this horse succeeds, it has to be tough.
"Then don't tell me!"
Ma Chenggong hesitated, pulled me aside, looked around and no one whispered to me.
It turned out that the father of Commander Xiao, the Duke of Pingguo Xiao Zhijie from Guanxi Prefecture, fell in love with a woman named Chu Chu when he was young, but Duke Ping's family objected to him marrying a prostitute. Married Princess Jinhua Donglingyan, Princess Jinhua is golden branches and jade leaves, and she can't tolerate sand in her eyes. On the night of her marriage, Chu Chu was expelled from the house. She was pitiful for a weak woman. She was pregnant when she was expelled from the house. He was also tough, raising his young son by himself. It was not until five years later that he became ill from overwork and Hongyan died young, and then Duke Ping took his son back and named him Xiao Chuyi.
"Commander Xiao followed the late emperor when he was ten years old, and now he is the commander of the Royal Forest Army by himself!"
Ma Chenggong added another sentence in my ear, with a flattering smile on his face, did he think I had a good relationship with Xiao Chuyi and came to curry favor? I nodded amusingly and said goodbye to him.
The people were almost gone. I was waiting for Jun Qidao at the gate of the palace. He was the prime minister, and the people around him wave after wave. When I was a little impatient, Mo Xichen and Pan Jie came over.
"Brother Shuxing!" Mo Xichen gave me a warm smile, he was always so refined and sparse.
"Brother Mo!" I smiled sincerely, and the courtroom was not filled with hypocritical and flattering faces.
"Yo! This adult is so handsome!"
It's Pan Jie.
I really don't understand, how could this condescending son-in-law become the deputy commander of the Yulin Army, the strongest in the Imperial Forest Army, and how could he be a vain swashbuckler.
"How dare you compare Xiaguan with Commander Pan! Commander Pan is the most beautiful man in Nanhuai. If you say that, you won't kill him!" I gave him an angry look.
Pan Jie reluctantly touched his nose, glanced at Mo Xichen, and said, "Does this lord have any misunderstanding about Pan? Why does he seem to have a problem with me?"
"Brother Shuxing, do you know Brother Pan?"
"do not know!"
"Then let me introduce you!" Mo Xichen was a little embarrassed, turning around and said to Pan Jie, "This is my good friend, Jun Xiang's eldest son, Jun Shuxing, who is currently serving as the Minister of the Household."
"It turns out to be Brother Shuxing! I'm being polite!" Pan Jie gave a long bow, and his words were gentle and polite, not like a military officer but a scholar's etiquette!
Seeing how sincere he looks, I don't have a bad attack for a while. After all, it doesn't matter to me whether people are romantic or not!
"Brother Pan is polite!" I bowed back, not intending to pay him any attention.
"Brother Pan, Brother Shuxing is very talented in writing, and he is the best among the talents in Nanhuai!"
"Oh? Really?" Pan Jie looked at me, "I can't tell that Brother Shuxing is so young that he can get such praise from Brother Mo!"
"It's Big Brother Mo who made a mistake!" I was ashamed, those so-called literary talents were just stolen, shameless.
"Hey! Brother Mo! You have such high hopes for Brother Shuxing, then this year's Mid-Autumn Festival night, the competition for the title of the first talent in Nanhuai will be worth seeing!" Pan Jie said, winking at me again, not serious .
"But Brother Pan, the most beautiful man in Nanhuai, no one can take away the praise!" I replied bluntly.
"Ouch! What a powerful mouth! Brother Shuxing's appearance is as good as me when he goes out!"
snort! I'm not like you, neither male nor female! I cursed inwardly.
"Brother Shuxing, you are so white!" Pan Jie blinked his eyes and laughed, "As the saying goes, 'one white hides a hundred ugliness', but I think it is 'one white adds a hundred beauty' to Brother Shuxing! Aah! I didn't even pay attention, your skin is too good! It's as tender as a woman!"
As he said that, he actually reached out his hand to me in an action-oriented way.
"What are you doing!" I yelled, knocking off his hand, and said "righteously", "Look clearly! I'm a man, okay!"
"Ouch! Why are you so fierce! I'm just kidding!" Pan Jie blew his hand that hurt from my beating, like a child.
"A few chatting is really speculative!"
A voice suddenly interjected, it was Beichen Shaoyuan!
"Are you talking about this year's Mid-Autumn Festival night?"
"Yeah!" Pan Jie eagerly turned to Beichen Shaoyuan, and it seemed that he could enjoy himself everywhere, "My lord, wouldn't you be interested?"
"Why not?" Beichen Shaoyuan raised his eyebrows and asked back.
Is he going too? Mo Xichen and I looked at each other, and he seemed very strange. According to the temperament of this noble co-king, how could he be interested in attending a gathering of scholars? But he was always unpredictable, and who knew what he was going to do.
It seems that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is unusual.
