Chapter 27: The Birthday Banquet of King Huai

Jing Yan looked at Wang Song's uncertain face, knowing that he had touched the part of his heart that he didn't want to be mentioned, and there was a trace of panic in his heart. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

She has a secret of her own, and if this secret is accidentally exposed, she doesn't know how to deal with it.

Wang Guanghe had a deep relationship with his wife, but soon after Ning's death, he married the Ji family, and it seemed that he had completely forgotten everything before, which made Wang Song really uncomfortable.

"Although I am a woman, I have heard of the heroic battle of the hussar general and his eldest son on the battlefield. The husband is kind-hearted and doesn't want to deal with those people, but you must know that there are some things that cannot be avoided, the weaker you are, the more they will intensify, today is a false accusation, tomorrow it is possible to directly take their lives. ”

Jing Yan's voice was not high when he said this, and he was slowly faint, as if he was talking about a topic that had nothing to do with him. She observed Wang Song's expression, and a faint feeling of concern rose in her heart.

But soon, she found that the corners of Wang Song's mouth were rising a little, and finally she laughed to herself, his slender fingers rhythmically tapping the handle of the wheelchair, as if sighing: "This day is finally here." ”

"You figured it out?"

When Wang Song raised his head again, his curved eyebrows and eyes conquered everything again, Jing Yan seemed to feel that tens of thousands of rays of sunshine spread out in his smile, and he became the extremely gentle Wang Song again, but something had slowly deteriorated in his smile.

"I remember before I went to war, my mother told me that while protecting yourself, you must first be worthy of the country. So I'm desperate to win even if I lose my legs. But when I protect my country, who is protecting my mother? ”

"I thought that for the sake of my father's face, the Ji family would at least know how to restrain myself, and I would treat my younger brothers and sisters wholeheartedly, and she would at least leave me some leeway in the house, it seems that I was wrong. I couldn't protect my mother back then, and everything that once belonged to my mother will be firmly grasped in the future, and I will never let the villain take it away again! ”

Jing Yan nodded, she even had the urge to go up and hold Wang Song's hand, because she felt that Wang Song was so lonely at the moment, this elderly husband seemed to be a child in her eyes, an isolated and struggling child.

Wang Song put away Fang Cai's expression and looked at Jing Yan again: "What is the real purpose of Lord Jing sending you over?" ”

Jing Yan smiled bitterly, and she said unabashedly: "In addition to interests, what else can it be?" The alliance between the Wang family and the Jing family is a force to be reckoned with in the DPRK, and if you and I work together, we will live or die, I will help you obtain the family business, and I hope you will not interfere with my actions. ”

What is this, is there a real showdown? Wang Song's heart twitched, when he knew that his wife was this woman, he also had fantasies, hoping that she could respect him with his eyebrows.

But he is a person who understands in the end, such an unrealistic fantasy should be strangled in the cradle early, and nodded at the moment: "Madame, whatever you do in the future, you can let me do it, Ah Cheng next to me is a trustworthy person, and he can also be sent if necessary." It's just that Madame said don't interfere, forgive me for not being able to do it, whether you want it or not, I will do my best to protect you. ”

The two looked into each other's eyes and smiled tacitly.

As soon as the beginning of spring is over, it is the eighth day of the first month, and the day of the birthday banquet selected by the emperor for King Huai is today.

The imperial family Yuwen clan has established power through many wars, when the emperor sits on the throne, the age has passed, King Huai has not married for the stability of the royal foundation, won the trust of the emperor, gave him a variety of privileges and endless wealth, can be in and out of the palace - unhindered, when one person is above ten thousand people.

This time, King Huai's birthday banquet was extremely luxurious, almost taking out the posture of holding a birthday for the Queen Mother, and the entire Huaiwang Mansion stretched for dozens of miles with lights, and even wrapped silk on the branches, and felt like entering a fairyland when you walked from afar.

Travelers passing by the post station can eat free meals, and the people are exempted from all labor for five days and given subsidies, and pray for the blessing of King Huai at home, and the entire street in front of King Huai's mansion is covered with a red satin carpet, like red waves.

King Huai is the emperor's elder brother, and has made great contributions, after getting older, his temperament slowly changed, and he began to like these luxurious things, and the family's assets have accumulated for decades, and he is truly rich and rivals.

But all this is not enough to make King Huai really happy, because no matter how much wealth there is, it cannot be passed on without inheritance, and in the end it is handed over to the state, which makes King Huai, who is very obsessed with wealth, a time bomb.

Therefore, before the birthday banquet, King Huai selected a boy in the family to inherit the family business, and the emperor was even more happy, and named that person as the son at that time. It's just that the prince of Huaiwang has not yet appeared in Pingjing, and for the young lady of the family, this rich and lucky guy is a dream wishful man.

"The last time I went to the street to get the booklet for the young lady, I heard the shopkeeper say, the eldest lady of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites and the younger sister of the Shilang family of the Ministry of War, in order to see the appearance of the prince of Huai Wang on the street, pulled and pulled on the street, and was looked at by many people!"

Listening to Chu Qing babbling these words, Jing Yan closed his eyes a little tiredly. Bai Li pushed Chu Qing's hand and stuck out her tongue.

"You two, okay, how King Huai is, how this life is, it has nothing to do with us, I just want to know if this birthday banquet can be spent safely."

Bai Li combed her long hair like a waterfall, and said with some concern: "That day I saw the second young lady talking for two or three hours in the eldest lady's room, and it was dark when I went out, and the second young master, although he was born with a good appearance, but it always made people feel scared, this birthday banquet, I think the young lady should not go." ”

"Don't go?" Jing Yan put down the little emerald pearl feather hairpin in his hand, "If you don't go, it's the biggest joke, in the future, everyone will say that the eldest young master and the eldest young lady of the Wang family can't get on the stage, doesn't this give the Ji family a chance?" ”

Chu Qing nodded: "What Miss said is, we still have to go, just be careful, I believe Miss will not suffer!" ”

Jing Yan smiled faintly, she didn't care what tricks the other party played, she just didn't know what Wang Song would do.

"By the way, did you send anything to Mother Zhao last time?"

Bai Li looked around vigilantly and nodded lightly: "Miss don't worry, it has been delivered, Mother Zhao told the master and gave me this." ”

Bai Li reached over, and it was a stack of boxy notes. Jing Yan opened it and looked at it, swept the corner of his eye and threw it into the brazier for heating on the side.

It turns out that this is the case, it seems that King Huai's birthday banquet is indeed a good opportunity.

As he spoke, Hanyu slowly pushed Wang Song into the inner room.

Since Hanyu came in, he has been sticking to Wang Song's side almost all the time, deliberately estranged them from each other, and intentionally or unintentionally mentioned in front of Jing Yan that his wife asked the eldest young master to accept her as a room, Jing Yan ignored everything, as if he didn't understand, which made Hanyu very annoyed.

But she still didn't give up, as if Wang Song's wheelchair was a bridge to her glory and wealth, and she didn't want to let go for a moment, and when she faced Jingyan in the inner room, the other girls and mothers-in-law consciously avoided suspicion, but she stood proudly, as if she had become an unshakable aunt.

"It's really shameless, I really take myself seriously!" Chu Qing muttered quietly.

"She's worked hard, let her go," Jing Yan said lightly, "Anyway, it won't be long." ”

It happened that at this time, someone outside came to report, saying that the Ji family had arranged the carriage and sedan chair and asked everyone to wait at the gate of the palace.

So Hanyu pushed the eldest young master straight away, and Jing Yan followed behind with Chu Qing and Bai Li.
