Chapter 259: Hongmen Banquet

"Jingren has been a little uneasy lately. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"King Jing is restless?" Xu Yanshan was thoughtful.

Xiao Rusheng said: "The monarch that Mrs. Jiang once liked was Jingren, but I unexpectedly ascended the throne. Maybe she already knew my background and believed that the Queen Mother would push her own son to sit on the dragon chair. ā€

"They joined forces? But Jiang Liang'er is your concubine now? ā€

"So what, if there is a consensus, then an unfavored concubine will be sacrificed." Xiao Rusheng said: "You don't have to go to Leng's house for a banquet. ā€

As far as he knew, it wasn't as simple as it seemed.

"People don't stand without faith, even if the Jiang family is a tiger's den in Longtan, I have to go."

Xiao Rusheng's heart sank, earlier he only regarded her as a woman, but when he walked, he found that this little woman was more interesting than he expected, she had strategy, she had courage, and she had the courage of a big man. "In that case, I will send someone to follow you when the time comes."

"I'll be careful."

The two gossiped for a while, and Xiao Rusheng went to the health hall again, and it seemed that there were a lot of things to deal with recently.

He didn't finish his words, and with what she knew about him, he didn't say it, not because he couldn't tell her, but because he was afraid that he would worry her after saying it. Even he thought she didn't have to go to Jiang's house. Could it be that this trip is not really unnecessary, but it will cause trouble.

Two days later in the morning.

Xu Yanshan got up early in the morning in order to go to a Hongmen banquet. Xu Yanshan sat in front of the diamond-patterned bronze mirror, and on one side of the table of the Eight Immortals were stacked several sets of brocade robes, pink, emerald green, and goose yellow...... Or embroidered pink lotus, or embroidered white lotus, or embroidered with a thousand petals of green peach, rich peony, or noble, or elegant, or charming.

She got up and poured one for herself: "Which one do you think I wear?" "It's the palace people who are waiting in Xihua Palace. Not only to go to the banquet, but also to dress appropriately.

The grandmother on the side took a closer look: "The emerald green satin embroidered with white lotus is good." "When I get older, I like to dress up calmly.

"I think she looks good in pink." At this time, I don't know where Ah Li and Fanhua came from, since the last incident with the prince of Northern Chu, and Ah Li haven't seen each other for a few days, but I don't feel anything wrong when I see it today.

It's just that as soon as the two of them heard that she was going to the banquet, they had to follow, and Xu Yanshan asked the palace people to bring flowers to taste her newly made dim sum first, and asked Ah Li to give her reference clothes.

Xu Yanshan stared at the teacup in Ah Li's hand: "This is the big red robe rewarded by the emperor a few days ago, what does Ah Li think of this tea?" ā€

Ah Li took a big sip when he heard this, the tea was fragrant, his lips and teeth were fragrant, and he took another sip, and after swallowing, he felt comfortable all over his body, and couldn't help but take two more sips.

After half a burnt incense, Xu Yanshan put on an emerald green and white lotus brocade robe and went out.

Fanhua stared at Xu Yanshan's back, a little puzzled, "Isn't my aunt going?" ā€

Xu Yanshan smiled: "Ah Li suddenly felt a little dizzy, I let her rest in my room, and I left Squeak to take care of her." ā€

Fanhua hesitated for a moment, "Empress Yanshan take me there." ā€

"If it's someone else's banquet, I'll take you, but it's okay not to go to this Jiang family's banquet. Was the pastry just okay? There are many more styles in the kitchenette, would you like to try them? Seeing Fanhua's attention shifting, she smiled and instructed someone to take good care of Fanhua.

Outside the palace gate, the royal carriage is parked.

Xiao Li Zi stood on one side, "The emperor said, let the queen go early and return early." The emperor selected ten guards, and ten young men who knew martial arts to accompany him. Speaking of this, he whispered to Xu Yanshan's ear, "Master, the emperor also picked two outstanding secret guards to accompany him, and they were already waiting in the car, and the emperor also told him to be careful in everything." ā€

Xu Yanshan said: "Okay." ā€

The wheels are rolling, the footsteps are sounding, the mist is shrouded all the way, and the ethereal shadows are like dreams. The tall family has a vermilion lacquer flying mast, and the lotus brings together the most noble princes and nobles of the Nanning Dynasty, turning into the south street.

Within the surrounding walls, there were more than a dozen masked black-clad men lurking in short bodies, each with a pair of eyes exposed.

Inside the carriage, the red clothes picked up a corner of the curtain: "There is a murderous atmosphere!" ā€

Xu Yanshan said: "Be careful! ā€

Redcoat nodded, exchanging glances with Blackcoat on horseback.

The man in the shadows: "Boss, do you want to do it?" ā€

The leader's arm was raised, but it did not fall for a long time, until Xu Yanshan and his party gradually moved away and approached Jiangfu step by step.

"Why don't you do it?"

The leader said: "The people accompanying me today are not ordinary guards. ā€

When I looked at the guards and servants, I found that their movements were surprisingly neat, and their every move was by no means an ordinary subordinate.

There were more than 20 people on the other side, and there were more than a dozen of them, but they were not sure of victory.

The team approached Jiangfu, and there were rows of private sedan chairs of official wives and young ladies parked in the stone alley of Ermen, and an oil incense car was particularly eye-catching.

Jiang's second wife, Li, led a group of people to greet the female guests lively, greeted Xu Yanshan and said with a smile: "Meet the queen!" ā€

Xu Yanshan's gaze fell on the oil bixiang car, "Whose car is that?" ā€

The second lady glanced at it and replied, "It's the carriage of the Manfu." ā€

"Where is the old lady of your mansion?"

"In the Flower Hall." The second lady stretched out her hand and made a "please" gesture, "Queen Mother, please come with me." ā€

In the flower hall used to entertain guests, there were already many faces who knew or didn't know each other, Xu Yanshan glanced at it, but saw an old lady sitting in the center, guessing that this should be the old lady of the Jiang family. On the right sat Jiang Yao, the wife of Man Hongtu, and gradually the two married daughters of the Man family. didn't see Jiang Liang'er seated, it can be seen that the Jiang family really didn't take this unfavored concubine seriously.

Mrs. Man smiled and got up, "See the queen mother, they said you would come today, I don't believe it yet." ā€

Xu Yanshan held Mrs. Man's hand and said softly: "This palace didn't expect this palace to come, there have been many events in the palace recently, and the queen mother has made things difficult in every way, the emperor didn't allow this palace to go out, who knows that the Jiang family is posted, it's really rare, Jiang Guifei is soft and hard to force me to come to this banquet." I didn't expect Madame to come, look at my memory, I forgot that this is Madame's maiden home. ā€

She was disgusted with Jiang Liang'er, and naturally she also hated the Jiang family. Since they forced her to go to the feast, then they had to admit her displeasure.

And she will never maintain the face of the Man family, she has her own pride, once Xiaoxiang was not afraid of the Man family when she was in the Man family, so she will not be afraid. Old Madam Jiang's face turned pale, and the corners of her mouth trembled and trembled. The eldest lady of the Jiang family looked at Jiang Liang'er on the side with reproachful eyes.

The third lady was a little complacent: "Queen Mother, if there is anything indecent about the concubine, I will compensate you on her behalf." ā€

"Grandma Jiang San, as far as I know, it's not that the concubine wants to embarrass me, but the Jiang family forces her to embarrass me. Can your apology represent the entire Jiang family? ā€

In his ears, Xiao Rusheng's voice echoed, "Yan Shan, if you don't like it from now on, you don't have to suppress yourself in front of others, I want you to live happily." "She wants to be arrogant, flamboyant, and can also look at people, in front of the self-righteous Jiang family, she should indeed be arrogant. (To be continued.) )
