Chapter 172: The Feast
Mrs. Liu carefully folded the recipe, stuffed it into Wang Miaoyan's purse, and said, "Can I still harm you?" Tell you to take good care of your body, and when you have a round house by this time next year, you will be able to get pregnant immediately. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoWait for you to give birth to a son, and see how proud the Yang family is! ”
Wang Miaoyan nodded, this matter was also what she thought about day and night.
At this time, the little maid opened the curtain, and Wang Miaozhen walked in. As soon as she saw her sister, she smiled and said, "I just saw my brother-in-law in a trance, and he is still handsome." Sister, you are really blessed! ”
Wang Miaoyan said with a smile: "You dead girl, there is only one daughter left in the family, it seems that your father and mother are used to you again, even I dare to joke!" ”
Wang Miaozhen stepped forward, sat down next to her sister, hugged her arm and said coquettishly: "My good sister, I have something to ask you this time!" ”
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she hurriedly instructed her subordinates: "You all go out, go outside and guard, and whoever comes over, report it first." ”
And all the maids and ladies in the house withdrew.
Mrs. Liu said: "I am thinking with your sister, while the matter between Pei Shizi and the princess is still vague, and there is no marriage date, I will set up something to make this matter worse, and then let your father work hard, so that Pei Shizi can marry your sister!" ”
Wang Miaoyan was shocked when he heard it: "Absolutely not! So who is Pei Shizi, how could he easily fall into the trap? Besides, he still attaches great importance to Xuanhui, and he went out to play together some time ago and didn't return overnight. The relationship between the two is so good, how can you not want a princess for the sake of your sister! ”
Mrs. Liu said: "Listen, you said it yourself, you dare not go home at night before you get married, and Pei Shizi doesn't respect the princess much!" Maybe it's still the princess who posted it upside down, anyway, she has already been married, so why don't you have more men with a broken body. ”
Wang Miaozhen interjected: "That's it! And there are not many people in the Chengguo Mansion who are waiting to see Xuanhui. Last month, my mother and I swam on the Qinhuai River on a painting boat, and met the Duchess of Chengguo and Mrs. Han, and the two of them didn't say anything good about the princess and princess, but they liked me very much! ”
"Marriage is the order of parents, even if Pei Shizi likes the princess, what can he do! In the Guogong Mansion, Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Han are in charge, and I have never heard Mrs. Jiang come forward to do anything. Pei Shizi doesn't listen to these two elders in marriage, who else can he listen to? ”
Wang Miaoyan frowned and listened to this, as if it was reasonable, but also felt very unreasonable. She hesitated for a moment and did not speak.
Mrs. Liu added a fire to it again: "Isn't the prince relying on our family and the Pei family now. If your sister marries Pei Shizi, are you still worried that you won't be able to fight the Yang family in the future? What does she have to rely on now? Isn't there a son, Xuanhui is on her side again! Children with big urine don't know if they can grow up or not, and they want to be backers, but I'm afraid it's an iceberg! What does Xuanhui have? It's not because of Pei Shizi! Let's pull Pei Shizi over, won't you be able to walk sideways in the palace in the future? ”
Wang Miaoyan frowned and said, "Who is going to walk sideways......"
Wang Miaozhen said dissatisfiedly: "Sister, I don't want you to come forward directly, but I just borrowed the two of you to give you directions when the time comes, and you just push back like this!" Don't you want to take care of your sister's affairs? ”
Wang Miaoyan said angrily: "You girl! How is it that the speech is becoming more and more open-mouthed! Do my father and brother know about this? ”
Mrs. Liu said: "Your father knows a rough idea, but he didn't dig into it, and he didn't think it was a big problem. Your brother, who is the second master of our family? He prides himself on being a righteous man and a gentleman every day, if he knows about this, can he still do it? ”
Wang Miaoyan lowered her head and thought for a while, it was too tempting to pull the Pei family over, she thought about it and agreed.
As soon as the fourth day of the Lunar New Year passes, people begin to walk around to pay New Year's greetings, and various families in Jinling City continue to feast.
The New Year's Banquet of the Royal Mansion is on the fifth day of the first lunar month, and the Chengguo Mansion, the Wang family, the Meng family, the Huangshan chief and his wife, etc., are all here, and the outer courtyard and inner courtyard are very lively.
Yang Yunshu took Xuanhui to greet the guests at the hanging flower gate in the inner courtyard, and Wang Miaoyan also followed them cautiously, looking obedient and cautious in the concubine's room.
After Mrs. Liu came with Wang Miaozhen, they called Wang Miaoyan over. The mother and daughter muttered for a long time, causing Xuanhui and Yang Yunshu to be playing drums in their hearts, wondering if they were going to do anything at the New Year's banquet?
Xuanhui was suspicious, so he motioned for Cai Wei to keep an eye on them.
The banquet in the outer courtyard had already begun, and the Wang family not only came today with the Wang father and son, but they also brought several generals and staff over.
After three rounds of drinking, Pei Minzhong became more and more surprised. He didn't know all these people from the Wang family before, but they were like old friends, and they desperately poured Pei Minzhong to drink.
Especially two of the generals of the Wang family, they are very strong when they drink, and they persuade Pei Minzhong to drink diligently, Xue Yuanhan wanted to block the wine for Pei Minzhong, and he was stopped back eight times out of ten.
Pei Minzhong glanced at Wang Yu next to him, and saw that he was also hesitant, so he knew that this matter had nothing to do with him, and he might not know. Today is a guest in the palace, and everyone will have to work together in the future, Pei Minzhong did not turn his face, and played with the people of the Wang family.
After Xue Yuanhan, who was waiting to block the wine, was already drunk, Pei Minzhong felt that he was dying. He began to pretend to be drunk while his head was still sober, on the one hand, to escape from this wine table, and on the other hand, to see what the people of the Wang family wanted to do.
Liang Zan saw that Pei Minzhong was already drunk, so he ordered someone to help him go to the guest room in the outer courtyard to rest.
Not long after he lay down, Pei Rongzhen flashed into the house.
"What the hell is going on?" Pei Minzhong asked in a deep voice.
"My subordinates don't know, but I just know that after you came here, those who persuaded the wine all dispersed and went to other tables to touch the wine."
"Are they really just drinking fans! You go outside and secretly guard, and I will wait for the rabbit to wait for the trap to fall into the net. ”
Pei Rongzhen agreed, and jumped out of the window.
At this moment, there was a sound outside the door of the room, and the rings of the skirt and hairpin sounded. Pei Minzhong couldn't be sure if this was Xuanhui or someone else, so he didn't get up and continued to pretend to be asleep.
The visitor first knocked lightly on the door twice, and when he saw that there was no response inside, he tiptoed the door open, walked in gently, and came to the bedside.
The woman sat next to Pei Minzhong, making him feel that there was a gaze watching him all the time.
After a few moments, a delicate hand climbed up Pei Minzhong's face, gently caressing the lines of his face, from his forehead to his cheekbones to his jaw.
Pei Minzhong finally couldn't bear it anymore and opened his eyes, but what he saw was Wang Miaozhen.
