Speaking of Qingyun, when her father-in-law came to the Hou Mansion to spread the emperor's words, she was in Shangshu Mansion and begged Mu Qianjiao and the young master of Shangshu Mansion for help.

Because she asked for someone, she came to the door in person.

However, no one gave her face at all.

Mu Qianjiao played with embroidered handkerchief, "Shangshu Mansion has been busy preparing for the marriage of the eldest sister, these days, I am accompanying her every step of the way, I really don't have time to help, Hou Mansion is really, knowing that there is going to be a banquet, what are you doing with the grounding of the five cousins?" ”

Mu Qingrou was grounded yesterday, and Shangshu Mansion already knew about it.

also knew that the Hou Mansion handed over the matter of holding a banquet to Qingyun, and it was a last resort to catch ducks on the shelves.

The Hou Mansion held a banquet, Guan Shangshufu was a, and she knew that Shangshu Mansion was going to marry her daughter, and she deliberately held a banquet at this time, obviously wanting to get past Shangshu Mansion, so she was not willing to help.

Mu Qianjiao didn't agree to help, Qingyun expected it, in fact, it was enough to have her and Zhou Ziting, what she wanted was a few cousins to help, after all, they were their own family, and they couldn't go over them and go to King Mingjun.

Qingyun looked at the third old lady and said, "What about the cousins, can you find two to help me?" ”

The eldest lady looked at her nails, and the dankou she had just wiped was as bright as a mountain red, and she smiled, "Your cousins are more busy than the other, and they probably don't have time." ”

"None of them are available to help me?" Qingyun asked softly.

The eldest lady shook her head and sighed, "The young master of the Hou Mansion is young, and he can't take care of himself, how can he greet people, Shangshu Mansion and Hou Mansion are one family, you have come to the door, if you can help, how can Shangshu Mansion not help?" ”

Qingyun saw that Shangshufu was unwilling to help, so she didn't force it, but just said, "Since the cousins are not available, then Qingyun won't trouble them and leave." ”

Qingyun just went out on the front foot. After walking more than 100 steps, the maid hurried into the house and said, "Old lady." The Hou Mansion held a banquet, and the three girls invited the emperor, and the emperor also came to attend. ”

The third old lady's face was stunned.

The eldest lady stood up directly, "What did you say?" Say it again! ”

The maid said again, "The Hou Mansion holds a banquet. The three girls gave the emperor an invitation, and the emperor will also come to participate. ”

The eldest lady heard it clearly this time, her tongue was knotted, "She actually invited the emperor?!" ”

The eldest lady felt a little dizzy, this courage is too big, anyone will ask the emperor to be so direct, and the emperor still agreed to come!

The eldest lady looked at the third old lady, her face was a little ugly, "Fang Cai, Qingyun asked Feng'er to help ......." ”

She refused!

The third old lady's face was also very blue. "The Hou Mansion has such a big face, and she actually invited the emperor, and she didn't even enter the palace in person, so she sent an invitation?"

The maid nodded again and again, the third girl's face was so big.

She only needed an invitation, so she invited the emperor, and personally came to the door to ask the girl and the young master to help, but she was not invited...... It's funny.

Mu Qianjiao stood aside, looked at the eldest lady and said, "The Hou Mansion invited the emperor to attend the banquet." There will definitely be many young masters from the family to participate, no worse than the Peach Blossom Banquet, and if the eldest brother helps to welcome the guests, he will definitely be able to get to know a lot of people. ”

And. Ushering in the send-off, the most important test is a person's cultivation and conversation.

The third old lady said with a smile, "There is no one in the Hou Mansion who can welcome guests except for Hou Ye, she will come to invite Feng'er again." ”

The eldest lady also laughed when she heard this, there is no one in the Hou Mansion available.

Pity. They thought wrongly, the cousins of Shangshu Mansion were not the best candidates in Qingyun's heart, but they were afraid of the face of their own family and gave priority to them, so as not to be criticized.

Now that Shangshufu has rejected her in a grand manner, how can she come back to ask for a second time?

Moreover, Shangshu Mansion, Qingyun came in person, and the second old lady was there, and Qingyun asked the magpie to go.

When Qingyun returned to the Hou Mansion, the magpie also came back and said, "Girl, the second old lady heard that you were holding a banquet, he was looking forward to it, and the slave said that the girl asked the young master to help, and the young master couldn't wait to come now." ”

As she spoke, she asked, "Did Shangshufu agree?" ”

Qingying pouted, "It's strange to agree to help, there is no one free at all, the girl has already decided to repair the book and ask King Mingjun to help." ”

Magpie nodded, "Anyway, it's all begging, the slave would rather the girl invite the king of Mingjun than the Shangshu Mansion." ”

Shangshu Mansion forced Qingyun to lose 20,000 taels of silver, and the two maids always remembered that although the money had come back early, the anger was almost gone.

Now, Qingyun personally went to ask the young master for help, but in vain, the anger of the two maids rose again.

The three masters and servants entered the mansion, and then they heard that the emperor was coming to the banquet.

The two maids looked at each other in disbelief.

In their eyes, this is simply impossible, but it has become true?

Qingyun smiled with satisfaction, the emperor came to attend the banquet, this banquet is destined to be very lively.

There are many people who know that the Marquis of Anding is going to hold a banquet, but everyone doesn't care much, and even many of the ladies have received invitations, and they don't plan to participate, some of the invitations have been thrown, and now I know that Qingyun sent an invitation to the emperor, and the emperor also agreed, and one by one began to worry about what clothes to wear and what headdress to wear on the day of the banquet.

Those who received the invitation cheered, and those who did not receive the invitation were all thinking that they could come to the banquet.

The whole of Kyoto is talking about the upcoming banquet of the Hou Mansion.

Besides, Master Hou, it was lunch time, and he was dragged up to the wind to eat.

While I was eating, I heard a bang downstairs.

He listened carefully for a few moments, and then froze.

The minister on the side also thought that he had heard something, "How did I hear that the three girls in the house held a banquet and sent an invitation to the emperor, and the emperor agreed to attend?" ”

Hou Ye shook his head, "I handed over the banquet to Qingyun, and I didn't say that I would invite the emperor to come over." ”

The other minister smiled, "Hou Ye said cautiously, the three girls have invited the emperor, if you want the emperor to know that you don't plan to invite him at all, it is estimated that Long Yan will be angry." ”

Hou Ye smiled, "Even if I really invite the emperor, the emperor will not give face." ”

As for Qingyun, please move the emperor, anyway, the Hou Ye has nothing to say, and his daughter's face is bigger than her father's, so there is no way.

A minister patted the Hou Ye on the shoulder, "If the Hou Mansion holds a small banquet, I won't say anything, even the emperor has been invited, this banquet must be wonderful." It happened that the court was closed that day, and the government didn't send me an invitation, so I was going too. ”

There is a black line in Hou Ye's head, and these individuals usually please don't move. Now it's good, uninvited.

"The banquet is taken care of by Qingyun, I don't know who she will invite, I will try to invite you."

"Not as much as possible, but as necessary. I don't want to get old and go over the wall. ”

“……。”

Speaking of Qingyun, when she returned to the Hou Mansion, she first went to Chunhui Courtyard and told the old lady that she had asked her cousin in Shangshufu to help and was refused.

The old lady was not angry, but smiled, "Since the young master of Shangshu Mansion is busy, he doesn't have time to help, just forget it, according to what you said before, please ask King Mingjun to help." ”

The old lady's mentality has changed now. At first, I heard Qingyun ask King Mingjun to help greet the guests, but the old lady's back was numb, and she felt that Qingyun couldn't be invited.

But now, Qingyun has invited the emperor, and then invited the king of Mingjun, is it still difficult?

Moreover, to greet the emperor, it is indeed necessary to have a few people of sufficient weight.

Zhou Ziting was busy in the warm pavilion, and when she heard Qingyun coming, she took the list and came over. Handed it to Qingyun and said, "According to what you said, I have drawn up the list and made a preliminary calculation." There are three or four hundred people who come to the Hou Mansion to participate in the banquet, not counting the maid entourage, is there more? ”

Qingyun smiled, "It's a bit much, but I can barely sit down, and the emperor will come to the banquet." It is estimated that it will be the same as the peach blossom banquet, many people want to come, and the flexible number of people at the banquet cannot exceed ten people. ”

Zhou Ziting looked at Qingyun, "What is the number of elastic people?" ”

Qingyun explained, "It's the people who are not in the plan, to put it bluntly, the people who come to the banquet through the back door." ”

Zhou Ziting smiled suddenly, she understood what Qingyun meant.

However, she was a little embarrassed, "If there are a few more girls from Zhongyi Bofu, and Shangshu Mansion brings a few more, I won't be able to stop it." ”

Qingyun looked at her, then looked at the old lady and said, "There are no rules, there are so many positions, you can't let them stand when you come, I don't even count my own position." ”

The old lady nodded, "Follow the invitation, and those who don't have an invitation are not allowed to enter the Hou Mansion." ”

After the old lady finished speaking, a maid came in from outside and said, "Cousin girl, the fifth girl has something to do with you." ”

The corners of Zhou Ziting's mouth arced slightly, and she glanced at Qingyun.

Qingyun only smiled and said nothing.

Zhou Ziting glanced at the old lady again, and then returned to the maid and said, "I'm busy at the moment, I'll go see her when I'm free." ”

Before, they didn't take over the banquet and wanted to force their uncle to invite them out, but now it's okay, my uncle handed over the banquet to the third cousin, and the third cousin might as well make a move, and directly invited the emperor.

Now they are in a hurry, but they are talking by themselves, they are grounded, how can they still care about the banquet, they have to concentrate on copying the house rules.

Now the banquet is in the hands of the third cousin, and if she annoys her, she will leave it alone...... The consequences are unimaginable.

Whether or not to let them out depends on what the third cousin means.

The fifth cousin, they have kicked the iron plate this time.

Qingyun didn't stay long, got up and retired.

When she got out of the house, Qingying giggled, "The five girls must be crazy with anger now." ”

Ever since she took over the banquet, they should have gone crazy, but more often than not, they wanted to see her jokes.

However, if she invited the emperor, they should know that she was not joking, and now they know that she is in a hurry?

It's late.

Qingyun rubbed her neck and entered the door, and as soon as she walked to the bead curtain, she saw Chu Bei looking at the paintings hanging on the wall in her room.

A smile overflowed at the corner of Qingyun's mouth, and she went in and said, "I knew that you could invite the emperor when you went out." ”

Chu Bei looked back at her and said with a smile, "You think too highly of me, the emperor didn't come to the banquet for my sake." ”

Qingyun's eyes widened, "Didn't you help me?" ”

Chu Bei told her very definitely, "I just helped you send the invitation to the emperor, I didn't say a word, and the emperor agreed." ”

Qingyun, "......." ”

Qingyun didn't believe it much, but it was true.

Chu Bei really didn't say a word.

The emperor threw the invitation on the table, Yun Guifei picked up the invitation and looked at it a few times, and the invitation was useless, and the two concubines helped on the side.

The emperor looked at Yun Guifei, "Is it that bad, I think it's not bad." ”

Yun Guifei said, "Where is it, a small banquet, no matter how fancy it is, it is not big, and I want to invite the emperor to participate, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, so many ministers, if they hold a banquet, they will send invitations to the emperor, which is worth it." ”

The emperor took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "The concubine doesn't want to participate at all?" ”

Yun Guifei snorted, "The concubine doesn't want to go." ”

The emperor smiled, "Since I ascended the throne, I haven't participated in the banquets of several ministers' mansions, even the peach blossom banquet, Princess Xuan came to invite me, there was no invitation, nineteen years, I only received such an invitation, this heart, is still desirable, I think about it, or decided to give this face, originally planned to let the concubine accompany me, since the concubine is unwilling, I can't be reluctant, let the queen accompany me." ”

As he spoke, the emperor instructed his father-in-law to send a message to the queen, asking her to get ready, and then send the message to the Hou Mansion.

He said as he walked out of the gazebo.

Behind her, Yun Guifei's face was extremely ugly, and she stomped her feet angrily.

Chu Bei felt that the emperor just wanted to attend the banquet, but he didn't want to bring Yun Guifei with him.

Qingyun wanted to laugh a little when she heard it, as for the emperor, who he wanted to take to the banquet, he had to rely on tricks, how tiring it was.

Qingyun poured Chu Bei a cup of tea and said with a smile, "I didn't expect me to have a big face, but thank you very much for helping me deliver the invitation." ”

Chu Bei smiled, "There's no need to thank you, but you don't seem to have sent me an invitation?" I'm going to a banquet, and I have to climb over the wall and stay in the tree? ”

Qingyun was embarrassed, "You and I are married, how inappropriate it is to meet in public."

Chu Bei's face darkened, "You woman, do you really plan to let me stay in the tree?" ”

Qingyun didn't speak, it wasn't that she was ungrateful, she was really embarrassed to invite him.

Chu Bei looked at her, his eyes shining, "I'll just stay on the tree, do you want your grandfather to stay on the tree too?" ”

Qingyun looked at Chu Beidao, "There is an invitation to Zhennanhou to come, but the invitation has not been sent out yet." ”

Chu Bei's face darkened by three points, "So, only I don't have an invitation?!" ”

Qingyun listened to the anger in his words, scratched her forehead a little and said, "There should be some, I didn't write a separate copy for you." ”

Qing Yun said this, and Chu Bei's face was three points better.

Qingyun looked at him and said, "I still have something to trouble you, no, it's the cook who troubles the Zhennanhou Mansion." ”

Qingyun said, seeing Chu Bei squinting at her, she quickly changed her words, her face was as red as a monkey's ass.

Wei Feng stood aside, a little dizzy.

I have never seen the third girl cross the river and tear down the bridge like this, she crossed the river by herself, demolished the bridge, and when she needed her, she had to swim over by herself......

Chu Bei has no choice but to take Qingyun, he has never seen her like this, but he can't help but help her, "You want the cook of Zhennan Hou Mansion to help you make roast duck?" ”

Qingyun nodded again and again, "But it's not just roast duck, so many people come to the banquet, and there are not enough cooks in the house." ”

Chu Bei promised to help.

Qingyun coughed lightly and added, "It is estimated that there will be sixty roast ducks......." ”

Chu Bei, "....... ”
