Chapter 549: Birthday Gift
When she arrived at King Su's mansion, Fu Nianjun could be regarded as a second acquaintance, and it was still the side concubine Lin who received her.
This Lin family's attitude towards Fu Nianjun has been much better, and they no longer dare to take the style of a serious princess.
"The princess is unwell, and I don't know if she will show up today, if Princess Huai wants to see her, the concubine will let people pass it on first. ”
Princess Su Xiao doesn't like to show up as always, and she doesn't even appreciate the palace banquet, so it is reasonable that such a banquet in her own house does not appear.
Xiao Shi did not appear, and there were still other female dependents in the house to accompany Fu Nianjun for pastime.
The stage in King Su's mansion is very large, and the famous southern opera troupe in the capital has been invited recently, and I heard that "Zhao Zhennu" and "Wang Kui" sang very brilliantly, and now they are wrapped in the house by King Su, and the cost of a day will always be copper money.
King Su is so willing to spend money, I'm afraid that today's drunkard doesn't mean to drink.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Fu Nianjun to hear that the Liao envoy Yelubi had also arrived.
This banquet was more like a family banquet in King Su's mansion, and even among several brothers, King Su only invited Zhou Yubai.
But Jeremiah came to the door.
Fortunately, men and women are seated, and Fu Nianjun naturally doesn't need to see those Liao people who annoy her.
King Su was quite complacent during the banquet today, and the conversation with Yelubi was also very intimate, but Zhou Yubai was a little redundant on the side, but he also consistently stayed out of the matter, even if Yelubi signaled him several times, he didn't answer.
Yelubi was pondering in his heart:
If you want to say that you have the business of making money in your hands and have the intention of cooperating, among these princes, Yelubi is still the most inclined to Zhou Yubai in his heart, if you want to talk about the reason, in fact, it is also somewhat influenced by Xiao Rin, Yelubi and Xiao Rin do not deal with each other, but he has spies under him to tell him, saying that Xiao Rin seems to have some connection with Zhou Yubai.
Since he was someone Xiao Rin valued, he didn't mind wooing him.
It's just that now King Qi and King Su have shown favor to themselves, but King Huai, who was the first to contact him at the beginning, was not as enthusiastic as them.
Yelubi thought to himself, could it be that this is also the trick that women's families love to play?
Zhou Yubai could imagine what was going on in his mind when he looked at his troubled appearance, but he raised his cup of tea and raised his lips imperceptibly.
Yelubi will definitely choose to do business with Zhang Shufei.
As for King Su......
Immediately he would be able to help Jeremiah make a decision.
When King Su saw that the wine had almost been eaten, he said to them with a fluttering eyebrow:
"It's the Queen Mother's Thousand Autumn Festival soon, and it just so happens that I have also prepared a birthday gift, the seventh brother is also here, and Lord Yelu is also there, you make a reference for me, palm your eyes. ”
Yelubi's Chinese is not very good, and as soon as King Su speaks quickly, he still has to confirm with Liu Cunxian, the translator next to him.
King Su waved his hand, and soon two or three servants brought up something covered with a black cloth.
Look at King Su's appearance, what kind of treasure should be in it.
Fu Nianjun watched the play on the high stage.
Of course, others are watching the play on the stage, but she is trying to see the play off the stage.
It was the first time she knew that King Su had the problem of "showing off".
King Su asked someone to tear off the black cloth, and a colorful coral tree was suddenly revealed inside, which was half a person high, blood-red all over, with a faint luster, without a trace of variegation, flourishing branches, and the posture was elegant and smart, and what was even more rare was that if you looked closely, you could find that this rare coral tree was completely flawless, without the slightest trace of man-made destruction, and it was actually a preserved one.
Even Fu Nianjun sat far away and could see this eye-catching baby.
Yelubi couldn't help but be shocked when he watched from the side, and stumbled: "I'm afraid that such a red coral tree will take hundreds of years to grow......
King Su said proudly: "This treasure tree is a rare thing for thousands of years, and it is perfect to give it to the Queen Mother for the Thousand Autumn Festival." ”
Zhou Yubai's eyes fell on the coral tree, a little distracted, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
King Su felt a long face: "Seventh brother, you haven't seen such a good thing, have you?"
Zhou Yubai nodded, "This can be said to be a priceless treasure, which shows the filial piety of the eldest brother." ”
King Su smiled and ate a glass of wine, and looked at Yelubi.
Naturally, he will not just show off the treasures in his hands, he wants to let Yelubi see the strength of his Su Wangfu.
Yelu Biben is also a shallow eyelid, their Khitan people used to be just rough people on horseback, where to see any treasures, the strength of the Liao State is strong, and the treasures of the Central Plains have flowed in one after another.
Such a coral tree, he dared to say, was half the size, and there was no one in the Liao court.
When King Su saw him like this, he was naturally very satisfied, and then asked people to go down and move something up.
"It's also a coincidence that this coral was originally a 'mother and child' tree, not only this mother tree is a rare treasure in the world, but also this small one, which is rare in time. ”
Sure enough, the other coral tree was about half the size of the previous one, and the branches were a little pale pink at the ends, but they were even more soft and beautiful.
Jeremi's eyes lit up all at once.
"This treasure, I pondered, put it in the house first, and then find an opportunity in the future, so that I can give it away. ”
King Su said.
It was clearly addressed to Jeremi.
Zhou Yubai was afraid that he would laugh out loud, so he hurriedly raised his hand and drank half a cup of tea.
But over there, Yelubi was obviously hooked, and he looked impatient, and he really couldn't wait to come forward and touch these two treasures.
King Su quickly had the two coral trees covered with a black cloth, carried them back to the storehouse, and then greeted them with a smile as if nothing had happened:
"Eat wine, eat wine!"
After sacrificing these two treasures, King Su and Yelubi talked with each other even more happily, even if the conversation between the two sometimes could not be connected, it still did not affect the enthusiasm of the two.
Halfway through the feast, the stage was temporarily suspended, Yelubi ate too much wine, and wanted to step back first and let Liu Cun help him to change clothes and rest, King Su was very intimate, and waved his hand to call two beautiful maids to come up and support.
The meaning is self-evident.
However, Yelubi probably hadn't recovered from the coral tree yet, and he wasn't particularly enthusiastic about the two beautiful maids.
Treasure beauty, such a temptation is in front of him, King Su is confident, just changing clothes is enough for Yelubi to think clearly.
Zhou Yubai has always looked down on such a style, but King Su was proudly frivolous, and said to him:
"There are more than a dozen girls in the house who have not opened their faces, and if the seventh brother values them, he can take a few back. ”
Zhou Yubai smiled lightly: "I don't have to, I'm newly married to Neiko, and I don't need them."
King Su actually nodded with emotion: "You really have a heart for your younger brother and sister...... It's similar to me. ”
Zhou Yubai said: "Naturally, the eldest brother's affection for his sister-in-law is worth learning from me. ”
