Chapter 215, The Banquet

Jiang Xiaolou held a banquet in the name of the county lord for the first time, so it was naturally more grand, early in the morning, the door of the county lord was opened, and the people were also looking new, and the steward who went out to buy brought a few carts of fresh ingredients from the town.

The red carpet was spread at the entrance of the county lord's mansion and stretched to the fork in the road, and the villagers of Beishan Village saw this situation, and they all looked at the intersection one by one, and everyone in the Jiang family also changed into new clothes, quietly waiting for the people who came to see the banquet.

Jiang Xiaolou also specially sent people to the rich families in the county seat and town, and the young ladies and young masters of the squire's family yesterday sent posts, inviting them to come to the banquet, and in addition, the secret guard of Tongzhou Mansion City also asked the secret guard to notify Jiang Qiu'er.

A few days ago, the secret guard came back and reported that it was that the Ye family's side was constantly moving, and it seemed that Ye Zhaorong Niangniang in the palace was a little restless, and at this time, in the name of the banquet, Jiang Qiu'er was called back, also to implement this time, by the way, I borrowed Jiang Qiu'er's mouth to mention a few words to the Ye family, so that they could rein in a little bit, if they could be low-key, it would be good, if they didn't know how to converge, then don't blame her for making a move!

Ye Yunge's situation in the palace, Jiang Xiaolou learned a lot from the secret guards, Ye Yunge has been in the palace for about two months, it is not considered a holy favor, but it is not bad, the emperor will go to her palace six or seven times a month, and the stay is relatively rare, only once or twice, and those concubines in the palace are waiting to catch her mistakes.

Ye Yunge is struggling in the palace, but she can't let the Ye family outside the palace drag her feet, she is good to say, she lives in Beishan Village, and she doesn't go out, nothing big will happen, but the Ye family is different, the Ye family is in Tongzhou City, and the Ye family also has the restless Ye Chao's two aunts and Ye Chao's mother・・・・・・

The day before yesterday, the emperor came to Ye Yunge's palace and stayed for two hours, and it was night, and the emperor was already planning to rest here in Ye Yunge, but a more favored little concubine who was attached to the queen suddenly said that she was sick in her stomach, and she was found to be pregnant, and the emperor was called away.

After that, he didn't come to Ye Yunge's palace again, Ye Yunge learned from the palace maids that the concubine was pregnant, and the fifth-grade Ronghua was promoted to the fourth-grade Jieyu, and she jumped two levels, but it was nothing, but when she heard that she was pregnant, her expression changed, and then Yun lightly pretended not to hear anything.

I already knew that I had no chance with my heirs in this life, so why bother, and then instructed the grandmother around me to send some congratulatory gifts to the little concubine who was promoted, congratulating her on being pregnant with a dragon son and being promoted to Jieyu, from beginning to end, Ye Yunge never thought of going in person.

"Niangniang, Bai Jieyu is pregnant, why don't you go and have a look!" Ye Yunge didn't want to go, so he only ordered the palace people to send congratulatory gifts, and the old lady who came out of the emperor's side personally selected and sent them, which made it difficult for those who had a heart to do!

A second-class palace maid beside Ye Yunge took the opportunity of serving tea, and her eyes flashed to persuade Ye Yunge, and deliberately aggravated the word pregnancy, the purpose was to let Ye Yunge appear in the pregnant concubine's palace for fun, and then carry out their plan・・・・・・・

"What do you think of this ・・・・・ Mama?" Ye Yunge couldn't make up her mind, she didn't know whether to go or not, she didn't understand the selfishness in the harem, so she could only ask for help from another grandmother next to her at this time.

"Presumptuous, whether the mother goes or not, how can you be questioned by a little second-class palace maid, and you don't retreat." Before Mama could reply, she was reprimanded by Ye Yunge's personal palace maid who came out of the bedroom, and Mei Xiang, who was brought into the palace from the county lord's mansion.

Mei Xiang, the palace maid, was specially selected by Jiang Xiaolou from among the subordinates of the county lord's mansion, in order to protect Ye Yunge from the calculations of the harem concubines, she had been in Ye Yunge's bedroom before, and when the palace maid opened her mouth, she happened to see the palace maid's flickering eyes, and in addition, when Ye Yunge asked about the grandmother beside her, she saw the expression of hope on the palace maid's face, and she was sure that there was something strange about this matter, so she would boldly open her mouth to reprimand this second-class palace maid.

"You guys should also step down first, the two grandmothers will stay ・・・・・・" Ye Yunge knew that this Mei Xiang beside him was a capable person, and it was this Mei Xiang's reminder twice before that he saved himself from trouble, and at this time, the inquiring eyes looked at Mei Xiang, and Mei Xiang signaled to these little palace maids who were serving here at this time.

Ye Yunge also understood, so he ordered these little palace maids to retreat, leaving only the two grandmothers, after this period of observation, Ye Yunge and Mei Xiang came to the conclusion that these two people are the emperor's people, they don't need to be guarded, many things, they are not easy to say, but they can convey it to the emperor through the mouths of these two people, let the emperor know, so that they can kill two birds with one stone・・・・・・

――――――――――― gorgeous dividing line――――――――――――

"Today, the lord of this county has a banquet, everyone does not have to be restrained, let us all raise a glass and drink." Jiang Xiaolou raised his glass, and invited everyone who came to the banquet to raise their glasses and drink together as the host.

There were a lot of people coming to today's banquet, but all the people who received her invitation came, not only by themselves, but even with their younger siblings or something, and some even came with admiration, fortunately, the venue arranged before was large enough to accommodate these extra people.

"The county lord invites ・・・・・・" These guests who came were either young masters and young ladies from the official eunuchs' family, or merchants from the merchants' families, and they were all very happy to be invited to Jiang Xiaolou's banquet one by one, and naturally they would not refuse Jiang Xiaolou's toast at this time.

At the banquet, Chu Yanran's seat was side by side with Jiang Xiaolou, and the people in Shuilai County didn't know the county lord of Yanran from the capital, so they guessed Chu Yanran's identity, and later learned from the Jiang family's subordinates that it was the county lord of the Xiwang Mansion, the royal county lord, and they were all excited, and they couldn't imagine that they would be able to see two county lords and a prince today.

The county lord and prince of King Xi's mansion, that is the real royal bloodline, the county lord of the royal roots, although Jiang Xiaolou is the county lord, but he is a county lord with a different surname, to put it mildly, it is the pheasant county lord!

But the pheasant county lord has a fief, which is different from the ordinary royal county lord, the identities of the two are even, in front of these small officials and eunuchs and merchants in Shuilai County, they are all unattainable figures.

Two days ago, Zhao Xin and others who met in the peach blossom forest of the temple also came, and Zhao Xin Han Qingcheng had fun, a few of them were the sons of the county officials, and the others were merchants, squires, and the sons of commoners・・・・・・

Before Jiang Xiaolou remembered the names of a few people, the somewhat open-mouthed Yang Hang was born in a merchant family, and his family ran the grain business in the county, Li Fan was the son of a commoner, and the son of Han Qingcheng Lizheng was about the same, the difference is that Han Qingcheng's father was for Li Zheng, although he was not in the stream, but he was also in charge of part of the affairs of a village, and Li Fan was the child of a serious farmer, and there was another person, Wei Ye, who was the better of the three, and his father was the county lord of the county government, although he was a junior official. But it's an official ・・・・・・

In addition, there are a few county government officials, county merchants, squires, and the children of the village chiefs or Li Zhengjiang's family, Zhao Xin and Li Fan are the lowest in this group, but the two of them are very good in this group, which shows that the two of them also have some ability.
