Chapter 236: Unexpected Changes (Part 2)
Back in the flower hall, Shen Ruohua was sitting and eating tea, but her heart was in a mess, she wasn't sure if Mama Wang had sent the news to Qi Mingrui in the front yard, and she didn't know if Qi Mingrui could go out to transfer Yu Lin Wei smoothly, she could only sit here and wait for the news.

Hu Shi saw that she was sullen, but when she was still angry because of Fu's anger, she leaned over and laughed in a low voice: "You are also relieved, she is just a continuation of the room, and she is not your serious mother-in-law, I heard that the first day of your tea was given to Mrs. Liang's tablet for tea, she could only sit and watch, no wonder she was annoyed, even if she really tried her best to give her son the position of the son, she was not the original wife after all." ”
Shen Ruohua said lightly: "I am also a continuation room, what is there to say." ”
Hu Shi was not embarrassed at all, but sat down beside her, took a piece of rose sugar cake and ate it slowly: "Where can you be regarded as a continuation of the room, the previous one has not even completed the ceremony with General Qi, and has never had the same room, but this duchess tried her best to stuff into the mansion, and there was no sound in the palace, as if there had never been such a marriage." "According to the example of the British government, how can the eldest son give some rewards when he marries, and it is also a means to envelop your mansion, but the palace did not even mention that marriage.
"You haven't married into the mansion yet, and the palace has rewarded you one after another, and you have specially rewarded those many rewards, which are comparable to the nameless one before, according to me, you are the original lady of the main house, not to mention that General Qi also attaches great importance to you......" She said while looking at Shen Ruohua playfully.
Shen Ruohua blushed and said in a low voice: "Isn't your fifth master treating you very well." "Hu's temperament has always been straightforward, and he is a person who can't talk, he loves to inquire and gossip, if he doesn't treat her sincerely, he can't tolerate her until now, and let her live so comfortably.
Hu Shi also blushed rarely: "He's just a brave and unscrupulous man, when I came here today, I also asked him to walk around with General Qi more, and he can also learn a thing or two." ”
When Shen Ruohua heard her words, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she pulled her and whispered, "I have something important for you to help me with." ”
King Dongping, who returned to the front yard, cheered up, and exchanged the wine for a feast with the guests who came to congratulate and watch the ceremony, but in the staggered interval of the plan, he glanced behind him from time to time, as if he was waiting for something.
Qi Mingrui sat on the upper seat, facing the full of delicacies, but he rarely moved, and he didn't raise his glass much, and even the dignitaries who respected him on the side, he only coped with a few words, and he was not very enthusiastic. The girl who had been helping to pour wine behind him didn't know when she retreated, but she replaced it with a grandmother, came forward with a teapot, refilled him with a hot tea, and said in a low voice beside him: "General, Princess Dongping has died, and this wedding banquet is strange." With that, the tea cup on the desk was just full, and she quietly retreated back into the crowd behind her, silently and silently.
Qi Mingrui was shocked, his hand holding the wine cup trembled slightly, and he almost spilled the wine. Although he and Shen Ruohua had already guessed that there would be an abnormality in the Dongping Palace, they did not expect that it would be at the time of the wedding banquet, and the Princess of Dongping had already died.
He can't delay, he has to think of a move to mobilize Yu Linwei!
He raised the wine cup and talked and laughed with a few adults on the side, contrary to his previous attitude, he raised his glass frequently, drank several glasses in a row, and Qingjun's face was also a little drunk, then he stood up, shook a little, and said to those adults with a smile: "I'm a little drunk, or go for a walk, and come back to accompany a few adults to eat and talk in a while." ”
Those few didn't care, and nodded with a smile: "General Qi go and return quickly, we will wait for a few more drinks with the general." ”
Qi Mingrui slowly walked out of the banquet, looking dazed and drunk, staggered out, the girl hurriedly stepped forward to help him, he waved his hand, and muttered: "It's convenient to go, you don't need to follow." The girl was embarrassed to follow and wait, but sent him out of the banquet room.
Until he walked to the corner of the corridor, he never saw the people waiting in Dongping Palace, Qi Mingrui's footsteps suddenly became faster, and his eyes immediately turned sharp, and he was not drunk at all, he looked left and right, walked to the high courtyard wall, ran over, stepped on the wall and turned over, lightly turned over the Dongping Palace, and fell in a secluded alley outside the palace. His time is running out, presumably Zhou Qiyou, the prince of Dongping, went to greet his relatives before he went to mobilize their people, and he had to transfer Yulinwei before they returned to Dongping Palace.
At the banquet, people toasted and talked, it was very lively, and King Dongping didn't notice that there was one person missing, he was busy dealing with waves of people who came to toast, saying all kinds of words of thanks, but his heart was becoming more and more anxious, waiting for the news that would make him feel at ease.
Suddenly, footsteps hurriedly sounded behind him, and he suddenly looked back at the person who came in surprise, but it was not the long entourage who had been sent to deliver the news before, it was the housekeeper of the inner courtyard, she came over with a frightened face, bowed down and said in a panic: "Lord, it's not good, the flower hall in the inner courtyard is out of water, and it's already a mess......
The flower hall in the inner courtyard is out of water?! Those princesses and ladies were all waiting for the banquet in the flower hall of the inner courtyard, how could they suddenly go out of the water!
King Dongping was in a hurry for a while, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Did you hurt someone? All the dignitaries and princes at the banquet also stopped and looked at the housekeeper.
Mama shook her head: "I didn't hurt anyone, but the fire was very big, and several princesses and ladies ran out of the flower hall and pushed and shoved out of the palace from the corner gate......"
King Dongping was stunned for a while, he only thought that there was a fire, he was afraid that he would hurt someone and die, and it would be difficult to do it at that time, and he planned to let people hurry up to put out the fire, and he also wanted to stabilize these powerful princes here, but he didn't expect that the ladies in the inner courtyard had already escaped from the palace when the fire was in chaos, and he didn't know how they could find a way to escape so quickly, what should I do!
When he was in a hurry and panic, he didn't know who shouted at the banquet: "The fire is so big, it won't burn to the front yard, right?" Let's go quickly, don't delay the fire fighting in the palace......"
The people who were still stunned seemed to have come to their senses, got up one after another to say goodbye to the king of Dongping, and hurriedly turned around and walked outside the banquet hall, all afraid that the fire in the Dongping palace would spread to the front yard, and even they were trapped in the fire......
King Dongping suddenly felt a big mess, and hurriedly kept the people who were leaving: "Don't, don't, it's just that the inner courtyard has gone to water, and it will soon calm down, don't be in a hurry to leave, and stay to watch the ceremony...... " But someone has already left the banquet hall, and the rest of the people are not willing to stay longer, after all, it doesn't sound like a trivial matter, and they all politely said goodbye and left, and soon only the king of Dongping and a few guests were left in the banquet hall, and there was no joy at all.
