Not long after the cousins came, Qin Yining and Qin Huining went to the flower hall to chat with the sisters. Although Qin Huining was not very popular, the scene was not embarrassing.
In the blink of an eye, the old woman talked back and forth and asked Mrs. Dingguo: "Old lady, the lunch is ready, is it in the warm pavilion?"
Mrs. Dingguo said: "Just put it in the warm pavilion, remember to go to the outer courtyard and invite the men back."
"Yes."
The female relatives went to the warm pavilion together, talking and laughing. When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, they happened to meet Duke Dingguo who came in with the grandchildren.
The girls saluted in unison. The eldest cousin Sun Yu, the fifth cousin Sun Jie, and the eighth cousin Sun Qin also saluted the women. They met with the cousins and went into the house.
The warm pavilion was as warm as spring, the food was ready, and the fragrant smell of the rice was appetizing. Mrs. Dingguo smiled and said, "Remove the screen, and there are no outsiders. Does the grandfather bring three grandchildren to eat alone? Don't you envy the crowd here?"
Duke Dingguo smiled and said, "You know me, even though I envy me, but you already ordered me without me speaking."
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
Duke Dingguo and Mrs. Dingguo entered the table first, sitting in the first place, while Mrs. Sun sat beside Mrs. Dingguo, leaving two seats for the eldest aunt and the second aunt in turn. The eldest cousin, the fifth cousin, and the eighth cousin sat next to Duke Dingguo's right hand.
As for the young girls, they naturally sat at another table.
The eldest aunt and the second aunt were holding the public chopsticks and asked for dishes to be served. Mrs. Dingguo smiled and said, "Let's have a small reunion dinner today. I don't want you to make rules. You will also be seated."
The two sisters still had to refuse, and Duke Ding said with a smile, "Just listen to your mother."
Although Duke Ding was gentle, he was the head of the family. No one would disobey him when he opened his mouth.
The big family pays attention to eating and sleeping, and during the banquet, they can hear the slight sound of chopsticks and plates colliding.
After the meal was over, the servants waited on the crowd, rinsed their mouths, and moved to the flower hall to sit down, and the atmosphere became lively.
Duke Ding stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Is it still a habit for Sister Yi to live these days?"
"Returning to my grandfather, my granddaughter is fine. My mother takes care of me and takes care of me in every possible way. Huining also taught me a lot of things I didn't know before, and now I can adapt to my current life." Qin Yining replied obediently.
When Mr. Sun listened to it, he didn't even bother to press the post.
Qin Huining looked up at Qin Yining in surprise, what was she going to do!
Duke Ding said with a smile: "That's good, it's also your mother's blessing that you and Sister Hui are so friendly. If you need anything, or you can't do anything in difficulty, you can ask someone to come and meet your grandmother. Say."
"Yes. Thank you grandfather for remembering." Qin Yining saluted gratefully.
Ding Guogong smiled and waved his hand to signal her to sit down without being cautious.
Qin Yining sat down next to the vacant seat beside Qin Huining, as if there was no disagreement between the two of them.
Qin Huining's body was tense, as long as Qin Yining was by her side, she felt uncomfortable, and she had to force herself not to show any clues to make people laugh.
Although Mrs. Dingguo was worried about the outside world, she was still calm.
On the other hand, the second aunt, because she was really worried about her husband and children and grandchildren, couldn't help hesitating and said, "Father, I don't know what's going on in Xihuacheng?"
Duke Dingguo thought about it for a while, and said solemnly: "The two armies in Xihuacheng went to war, and Pang Zhixi used his soldiers to deceive. We have not taken advantage of it for the time being."
When everyone heard the words, their hearts sank.
The second aunt comforted herself and said with a smile, "Although I didn't take advantage of it, at least the men in our family are still safe and sound."
The relatives who stay behind have only such simple extravagant hopes.
Duke Ding sighed and said, "It's just my age. Otherwise, I'll go to Xihua City to defeat Pang Zhixi's prestige!"
"Grandfather is old and strong, but you don't need to go out for the time being." Fifth cousin Sun Jie said with a smile.
The eighth cousin, Sun Qin frowned, "Actually, the war is only one aspect, but it is Da Zhou's arrogance that makes people angry. Their empress dowager has a headache, why are they embarrassed to send someone to inform us? Why, they invaded We, still want us to find a doctor for them to treat the queen mother? The whole world has become their family! But the emperor is still rushing to find a famous doctor! This is simply... "
"Eighth brother, be careful." Big cousin Sun Yu scolded lightly.
The eighth cousin remembered that there were all the cousins and cousins around, and smiled awkwardly.
Qin Yining lowered her eyes and listened to this, she felt like a big stone had been pressed in her heart. The emperor is so dull, he only knows love and love with the demon queen, and he does everything behind the scenes, but he never thinks that the imperial court will be twisted together to fight against foreign enemies.
Dayan has placed such a faint-hearted monarch on the common people's stall. I hope that he can stand up and become stubborn. It is better to hope that he will return to the sky soon!
When the room was dull, the sound of the next person suddenly came from outside.
"My lord, the chief of the palace has come to deliver an order! At this time, people are in the front yard!"
Another decree!
Dingguo hurriedly ordered someone to set up an incense case, and the whole family went to the front yard to kneel to receive the imperial decree.
Director Wang's face was solemn, and he slowly unfolded the imperial decree of Minghuang, and said aloud:
"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor's edict said: The Queen Mother Zhou of the Shang Kingdom was sick, so she looked for a famous doctor to get a good prescription, eat the brains of wise people, and can eradicate the disease. I consulted Sun Yu, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, who is resourceful and ingenious. , with both wisdom and bravery, it is worthy of great use, specially named 'An Guobo', rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, and went to Da Zhou to treat the Queen Mother, I am honored!"
Silence in the courtyard...
Director Wang's sharp voice slashed through everyone's heart like a knife.
Duke Ding's body trembled as he knelt on the ground, raised his head and said, "Dare to ask Chief Wang, what is this?"
Director Wang sighed lightly and said, "Master Guo, don't blame the servants, the servants are also acting according to the order. The servants are here to give you the bottom line. Da Zhou is here as the envoy, do you know that? It was just the envoy. When I met the emperor, I said that the doctor of Da Zhou gave them a prescription for the queen mother, and to cure her old man's headache, we must eat the brains of the most intelligent people in the world."
Speaking of this, Chief Executive Wang also had tears in his eyes, but he held it back and said in a low voice: "The envoy of the Zhou Dynasty and the emperor called names and said, 'I heard that there is a person in your country who is very good at writing letters, and he is the smartest. I want him', the emperor should come down..."
At this point, the eldest aunt has rolled her eyes and fainted. The cousins all started to cry in fright, and hurriedly went to pinch people. The second aunt supported Mrs. Dingguo who was trembling all over. His face was as pale as a ghost.
Qin Yining clenched his fists tightly and supported the trembling Sun Clan, looking at the commander Wang Da, who was delivering the decree, what to say.
Ding Guogong only felt his brain buzzing at this time, and the old voice became more and more hoarse: "This, how does this make..."
"My lord, the emperor has a decree. In order to appease Da Zhou and protect Dayan, this is also a helpless move." Director Wang sighed, holding the imperial decree with both hands to Sun Yu, who had been silent: "Master Sun, you accept the order. Bar."
Sun Yu's expression didn't change at all, but turned around and went to his aunt to support his mother who had just woken up.
"Mother, don't cry."
The aunt's eyes were red, and she grabbed Sun Yu's hand vigorously: "Son, my son, don't go, we won't go! We can't accept this order! Don't go! You are not allowed to go!!"
With tears in his eyes, Sun Yu put his mother in his arms comfortingly and patted her on the back: "Okay, okay, mother, I won't go."
However, the decree has arrived, what should I do if I don't go
Everyone panicked.
Qin Yining's thoughts turned around, grabbed Sun Yu's sleeve, and lowered his voice to a very low level: "Cousin, let's take the order first, and let's take a long-term plan for the rest, and then think of countermeasures!"
Qin Huining panicked with tears all over her face, and whispered, "Yes, yes, Da Zhou is far away from the mountains, and who knows what you look like, when the time comes, someone else will replace you!!"
The words of the two vaguely gave everyone hope.
Yes, at the time of crisis, they all panicked.
The aunt nodded again and again, "Yes, let's get the order first, we're trying to figure out a way!"
Mrs. Dingguo and Mrs. Sun also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Sun Yu smiled and stood up slowly: "I, Sun Yuanming, are a man who stands upright in the sky. I walk upright and sit upright. Grandfather, grandmother, mother, I don't want to live in secret."
He turned around, walked quickly to Director Wang, sneered, and overturned the imperial decree to the ground.
"Dazhou bandits, invade our country, kill my people, deceive my king! Want my brain to heal?! Dreaming! Even if I smash it, I won't give it to them!"
The voice fell, and the person suddenly slammed into the platform next to him!
Immediately, only a bang was heard, red and white spattered, blood stained the blue shirt, and the thin body fell under the steps.
"what!!"
"Brother Ming!"
"My son!!"
No one could have imagined that Sun Yu would be so fierce.
Mrs. Dingguo, the eldest aunt and the second aunt all screamed and passed out.
The girls were so frightened that they hugged their heads and cried, fainted, and the scene was a mess.
The fifth cousin and the eighth cousin jumped on Sun Yu's corpse and beat his chest and feet, crying bitterly, shouting his name...
Ding Guogong was trembling all over, looking at the corpse of his favorite grandson, looking at the mess on the ground, suddenly pulled the corner of his mouth and forced a smile.
"Okay, okay, Brother Ming, it's my grandson's son, a man with a backbone. Grandfather didn't hurt you in vain! Grandfather didn't hurt you in vain..." Ding Guogong said this, and he was full of old tears. Falling to the ground crying.
Director Wang wiped his tears with his sleeves and said anxiously, "Master Guo, how good is this, if the emperor is to blame, how wonderful it is!"
Mrs. Dingguo's wife was rescued by Bingtang with a silver needle. Qin Yining and Mrs Sun helped her to sit up and sneered when she heard this:
"This is what happened, so what can I do? I am in the same vein as the prince of the country, and I am loyal and loyal to the country. I have never lost a single day to the emperor's kindness. Bar."
