Chapter 9: The Best Is Yet to Come
"I wanted to invite the Ge family class to sing in the hall, but the third master of the family suddenly changed, and the mother is sad so far, and told me not to do it wantonly, and please forgive the ladies" The eldest lady revealed her true feelings, and with that look, she is really a good hand at acting. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The ladies and ladies who don't know the truth have expressed their appreciation for the old lady, the 'best mother-in-law'. After all, the title of the old lady was obtained by the imperial court's father who rewarded Nie Qishu for his meritorious deeds in this war, so the play must be performed and acted well.
"The second lady of the Li family is getting more and more smart," the old lady said with a smile.
This Li Niangzi is the daughter of Li Yuanyi's family, the secretary of the court, and Li Yuanyi's father is Nie Zhenyuan's mentor.
The old lady also probed Mrs. Li's tone and wanted to seek the second lady of the Li family for her grandson, Lord Li also intended to marry, this Nie Zhenyuan is less than forty, and he is already an official from the third grade, which is of course indispensable for his care, but he also has to be supported by the lord himself on the wall, and now he is transferred to Beijing in his operation, and the next thing is to serve as the cabinet, the only fly in the ointment is that the Nie family has no fame yet, and he has to wait, just by taking advantage of the old lady's birthday banquet, the two families look at each other, if they are satisfied with the next year's big exam, they will exchange eight characters.
Li Erniang, also understood in her heart, and returned prettyly, "The old lady praised it falsely, I don't deserve to praise you so much"
"Oh, deserve it, look at this little mouth, how to talk" The smile on the old lady's face was even better, it was really a happy scene.
Nie Qishu, who was sitting in the corner, clenched her hand under her sleeve so quickly, everyone forgot about her father who had just died, everyone forgot her sadness, and sure enough, there was no status right, and no one needed to pay attention to your feelings.
Qianxuan, go and see what the eldest prince is doing at the moment.
"Yes" Qianxuan is used to what the lady tells her, and she does not hesitate to do it even if she has doubts, because what the lady said is right.
After a while, Qian Xuan came back and whispered to her, entertained guests with the eldest lady in the outer courtyard, and would go to Fushoutang to celebrate the old lady's birthday in a while.
At this moment, a servant woman came to report, King Liang came, and instantly caused a commotion in the hall, for no other reason, just because this King Liang is also the object of admiration of many little ladies in the capital, and the status and authority are needless to say, it is said that he is also dignified, gentle and elegant,
Looking at these little ladies who hurriedly got up and sorted out their clothes and hair accessories, they knew that they must be handsome and extraordinary, and when the foreign man arrived, they naturally wanted to avoid the inside, but Nie Qishu was very puzzled, what does this King Liang have to do with the Nie family, why did he come to the door to celebrate his birthday in person?
During contemplation, I only listened to a hearty and warm, warm voice like the warm sun in early spring, "This king is ordered by the imperial brother to come to celebrate the birthday of the old lady" It is very common for the emperor to send people to celebrate the birthday of the courtiers in Daqi, in order to show the grace of the royal family to the courtiers, and to show the status in the emperor's heart, but it is still rare to send the prince to congratulate the lady on the birthday of the first order, but the emperor and His Royal Highness the King of Liang do not deal with each other, and the whole Daqi is also known to everyone, maybe there is no hidden meaning in this.
"Oh, don't dare to be it, how can the emperor send His Royal Highness to come in person on a simple birthday."
"Although the old lady's sixty birthday is not a big deal, but this king has to come to congratulate him, the old lady has raised three pillars of talent for Daqi, which can be said to be indispensable......"
A chattering voice suddenly sounded in the inner room, "Oh, this Lord Nie has such a big face, it's different from marrying Shangshufu," Nie Qishu suddenly realized, it turned out to be Li Shangshu! No wonder Nie Xiuyuan alone doesn't have such a big face. She still thought that when Nie Xiuyuan was in the emperor's heart.
In recent years, Shi Langhua Shi of the Ministry of Industry is very old, although the Xun of the Ministry of Rites is still in good health, but there are also fifty in sixty, and the six Shangshu of the DPRK is about to have a big reshuffle, and all forces are about to move, Nie Xiuyuan is likely to serve as one of the Shangshu under the operation of Lord Li after entering the cabinet, in order to win the Nie family and the Li family, King Liang came in person, but unfortunately, the eldest lord and the eldest lady are bent on letting Nie Yuanniang enter the palace, and they are obviously not optimistic about King Liang.
It's just that there is an accident with King Liang, this is really an unexpected joy, Nie Xiu is far enough for you to drink a pot.
He Guoshou King Liang and the eldest lord and the others went back to the outer courtyard again, and returned to the ladies and ladies in the hall to continue chatting, Nie Qishu saw that the time was almost up and said to Zuo Qianniu Wei Zhao's wife, what about Jiu Niangzi, just now said that you want to go to Yuan Niang's seat with me after the banquet.
Mrs. Zhao, who was asked, found that her daughter, who was still by her side just now, is now nowhere to be seen.
"This kid is really uneasy," Mrs. Zhao said.
"Oh, then you have to look for it quickly, there are a lot of corridors in the Nie Mansion, and it's not good to accidentally get lost, and delay the auspicious time of the birthday banquet," said Wen Niangzi of Taichang Shaoqing's family
The old woman also discovered the abnormality here, "Siniang, you go and look for it, don't let the slave who is not long-eyed collide with Jiu Niangzi"
Isn't it just to treat her as a person, and say a high-sounding excuse "Yes, grandmother, Siniang is going"
Tan Niang and Wen Niang are also together, didn't Shicai say that the snow scene of Linxi Lake is very beautiful, haven't you seen enough? Let's call the nine ladies to enjoy the snow together, the winter plum blossoms on the lakeside are just right, Nie Qishu turned sideways and said to the Tan Niangzi of the Zhongshu Shilang family and the Wen Niangzi of the Taichang Shaoqing family
"Okay"
"Exactly, there is still some time before the birthday banquet, and I am bored," the two little ladies looked at their mothers after speaking.
"Young man, if you can't stay with us, go, don't be playful, forget the hour of the feast," said the ladies
"Yes" Nie Qi Shufu should be, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the eldest lady's gloomy face, and the old woman scratched the corner of her mouth, but she didn't say anything.
This is what they asked for, who made them pretend to be charitable and kind in front of outsiders, and now they can only look at Nie Qishu and the ladies of each family,
Little slut, to see if you can jump for a few days, you have to hurry up and talk to Wu Anbo's matchmaker, she will welcome her relatives as soon as the birthday banquet is over, she doesn't want to see that slut for a moment. The eldest lady said hatefully in her heart
"Ah~"
"Ah~"
"Ah~"
As Sansheng screamed, the east wing of Fushoutang instantly gathered the maids.
Nie Qishu, who went to find someone, saw that the eldest prince was disheveled and ran out with a flushed face, and then they heard a sound in the house, and in less than a stick of incense, the eldest prince insulted the nine ladies of the Zhao family, and the news that the nine ladies committed suicide by hitting the wall in shame and indignation spread among the guests who came to Nie's mansion to celebrate their birthdays.
When the old lady heard the news, she almost jumped up from the table, and when she saw Mrs. Li's face, the marriage with Li Shangshu's family must be over after this time, and she felt that the sky was spinning and fainting.
There was chaos in the hall, and the old lady was carried to the inner room to rest.
The eldest lord and King Liang also rushed over when they heard the news, and before they could enter the hall, they heard the eldest lady shouting hysterically, "This is impossible, there must be some misunderstanding"
"What is the misunderstanding, my Jiuniang is still unconscious, it is all a good thing done by your son, is it bullying me There is no one in the Zhao family, although our master is a military attache of the fourth grade, it is not something that your Nie family can bully at will" Mrs. Zhao did not back down.
In recent years, there have been frequent wars at the border gates, Emperor Xun has made great efforts to make peace, and reused a large number of military attachés, so that the status of military generals has improved.
Mrs. Zhao continued with red eyes, "I'll go into the palace to sue the royal court, your Nie family is too deceitful."
"Mrs. Zhao, stay, stay," Nie Xiuyuan said as he quickened his pace into the hall
