Chapter 42 The Banquet

Along the way, unlike the anxiety of the old ladies and wives, the happiness of Siniang and Wuniang, and the calmness of grandmothers, Qiniang Su Muli has always been uneasy in her heart.

Although he only has a few faces with King Xuan, he has saved himself twice, these days, he is bent on his grandmother's illness, and he has completely forgotten him......

Woowoo...... Does she despise the royal family and commit the following crimes?

Wait, will it be like in the dog blood god drama, first reprimanded by King Xuan in person, and then cried and begged for mercy to no avail, and then was punished to kneel, confined, copied "Female Ring" and "Female Virtue", and finally was thrown into a small firewood room to squat in a circle?

Qi Niang remembered the classic plot in the dog blood drama, the heroine squatted in the firewood room with a black steamed bun and cried a handful of snot and tears, not to mention how miserable it was......

Her scalp tingled.

Xuanwu Yicheng can't be so perverted, right?

Also, will Uncle Sanniang and them add oil and vinegar?

If my grandmother couldn't say a word with her help, I was afraid that I would die even worse......

Thinking of this, Qi Niang's small body couldn't help but tremble twice, and silently shrank into the crowd......

I hope it won't be seen at a glance, and I hope Xuanwu Yicheng won't hold a grudge against it......

When the old lady led the general's mansion up and down to pay respects, Xuanwu Yicheng was splashing ink by the window in high spirits.

Qi Niang shrank behind the crowd and followed the salute at a glance, and her heart has been planning to wait for the intercession, first of all, the attitude should be humble, don't say anything when you hear the reprimand, and immediately kneel, and then briefly describe how busy she was during her grandmother's illness, how she was so busy with healing and how anxious she was so anxious that she had no time to take care of anything else, and finally begged for mercy repeatedly, of course, it would be better if it was accompanied by a little tears, just a handful of snot and tears, it was too unsightly.

If you must be punished for kneeling and throwing firewood, then you can only accept your fate, don't make trouble again, if you anger the one in front, I'm afraid that corporal punishment will be more serious, she is new to the city, I really don't understand the rules of the game, don't care about anything else, the attitude must be humble, we must be humble, humble......

It's not that she's afraid of corporal punishment, she's afraid of her grandmother's worry, it's more of a fear of imperial power, the ghost knows what their princes and grandchildren think, in her previous life, she saw a lot of those arrogant second and third generations in the upper circle, and outsiders just don't have a random one, which will cause them to have a "convulsion" attack, not to mention that there are some perverts who are picky in eggs.

Reliving a life, she does not seek to get ahead, but to be safe and happy with her grandmother......

Qi Niang was immersed in her own small world with careful thoughts, but she ignored the movement in the hall, and when she came back to her senses, the eldest and second masters were retreating outside the hall with their grandmother, and Xuanwu Yicheng looked at it with a smile in his eyes.

That's the end of the visit? There was no reprimand and punishment for her, no crying for mercy, no punishment for kneeling and copying books in the later stage, and finally I didn't need to go to the backyard firewood room to squat in circles?

Xuanwu Yicheng doesn't care, or does he not care about this, or is he too lucky?

Qi Niang was puzzled, and when she thought about it again, she smiled.

In this world, there are too many things that we guess the beginning but can't guess the end, as long as the result is satisfactory, why bother stupidly entangled in the process.

She glanced at Xuanwu Yicheng gratefully, and then ...... The whole person is not good.

He...... He happened to be staring at himself with a deep smile......

Why is the smile on his face so weird, and why does the light raised eyebrows reveal smugness? How do you feel that you have not escaped, but ...... Being caught in another circle.

However, this game is not the end of joy, but ...... Just getting started?

At this moment, Qi Niang hung her head and retreated in the crowd......

Sent away the Duchess of the Kingdom, but Xuanwu Yicheng did not continue painting, he stood alone by the window, took out the double-sided embroidered silk handkerchief with green cicada wings from his arms, and observed it carefully, the smile in his eyes became deeper and deeper.

Sure enough, as Siniang expected, the old lady set up a banquet at noon to entertain King Xuan, but fortunately, the You family had already prepared, so there was no mess up.

The banquet is set in the main hall of Changfeng Hall, and the banquet is held at noon, during the banquet, Qi Niang sits next to the old lady, and I don't know how many people are envious.

Although this otherworldly space is ancient, the folk customs are much more open, and the little lady who has not left the pavilion can meet guests and friends, and can also go out to travel, which makes Shangmu Li, who is a modern person, less restrained.

Siniang was next to Qi Niang, she was not unhappy because of this, but she glanced at Xuanwu Yicheng on the opposite side from time to time during the banquet.

The eldest master was unwell, and he had to put down the wine glass after a few sips, but the second master was quite attentive.

Xuanwu Yicheng is easy to deal with, and there have always been many royal banquets, and he has long been accustomed to it.

"It's a good wine, though." He half-squinted his eyes and tasted it carefully, "Long and delicate, with an endless aftertaste, I don't know how to make it?" ”

"Thanks to the prince's praise, this is the pear blossom white brewed by the little girl Qingluan." The second master explained with a smile and motioned to Siniang.

"Siniang thanked the prince for his praise!" She hurriedly got up and thanked her, "The pear blossom is white, take the pear petals in March, use the spring water of the bamboo forest in the Taihang Mountains outside the city, seal the wax paper and put it in the warm pavilion to brew for more than a month, and then hide it under the pear tree for three feet, so that it can absorb the essence of the pear, and wait for the reincarnation of the four seasons." Her voice was weak, her face was shy, and her heart was full of joy.

King Xuan praised her......

"Oh, it turned out to be made of black pear, no wonder it lingers on my lips and teeth after drinking." He looked at the old lady with a smile, "I heard that the pear orchard in your mansion is in full bloom in spring, prosperous like snow, it is a rare beauty of the Great Yue Kingdom in Middle Earth, this king went south with the emperor a few years ago, but because he was young and playful, he missed the beautiful scenery, and he has been regretting it for many years. ”

Cenzhou Moli Garden, since the death of General Changfeng, has not been open to outsiders, and no one knows the reason.

These days, he walked around the mansion several times by himself, and still didn't find any discoveries about "The Witch God's Language", only the gate of the Moli Garden was closed.

"How dare you, the prince is tormenting the old body." The old lady replied again and again, and instructed the second room, "Your eldest brother is unwell, so you will accompany the prince tomorrow." ”

"Don't bother the master of the second room." Xuanwu Yicheng interrupted, "The Seventh Lady has just returned to the General's Mansion, and she has never returned to the Ink Pear Garden, so why don't you ask the Seventh Lady to accompany you?" He looked at the old lady with a smile on his face.

Everyone here was stunned when they heard this, and Su Muli was even worse. She has worked hard to weaken her sense of existence, why doesn't this Xuanwu Yicheng let her go?

Isn't it, he still cares about his heart?

Qi Niang recalled that weird smile, and her heart trembled.

"It's still the prince who is thoughtful." The old lady was the first to react, she patted Qi Niang's hand, "These days, you have spent all your time with my wife, and you haven't had time to take a good walk around the house, the pear orchard is your father's favorite place during his lifetime, and the pear is your mother's favorite flower in her life, you go and take a look, it can be regarded as a little filial piety." The old lady's eyes were slightly red, and her voice was choked.

"Yes, grandmother." Qi Niang replied hard.

There's no way, you can't hide from what should come, so let's face it.

The corners of King Xuan's mouth bent, and then the pear blossom was white.

Siniang squinted her eyes and took a small sip of soup, her face was the same, but her heart was full of mixed tastes, especially sour.

As soon as the banquet was dispersed, she immediately led someone to inquire about King Xuan's appreciation of the paintings in Linyu Pavilion.

Qi Niang, it's not simple......
