Chapter 6: The Family Banquet of the Hung Gate

"Miss, I've found you." As soon as the Guo family arrived at the gate of the courtyard, they hurriedly shouted and waved at them. Presumably this time, the prime minister returned home, so he used his old man to rush over in such a hurry.

"Uncle housekeeper, is Dad back home?"

Zhiyi also hurriedly got up and got out of the pavilion.

"The master has just returned home, let the young lady go to the study for a walk."

Zhiyi turned her head and said goodbye to Qiu Shuqing, "Sister-in-law, take care of your body, Zhiyi will take the time to come and visit." ”

The corners of Qiu Shuqing's mouth rose slightly, and he waved his sleeves at her.

Steward Guo also nodded slightly at Qiu Shuqing, and followed Zhiyi out of the courtyard.

At the door of the study, I saw a tall and mighty figure from a distance, dressed in an official robe, facing the door sideways, holding a scroll in his hand.

"Dad, Xiao Yi has come to see you." Zhiyi lifted the hem of her skirt slightly and strode into the door, this feeling is just like when she was a child, every time she was injured, she rushed into her father's arms, so warm.

"Xiao Yi...... Come on, Daddy take a good look. Tang Jing put down the scroll in his hand, turned around, and raised his hand towards Zhiyi.

"Daddy......" Zhiyi pounced, and as soon as he swallowed his hiccups, tears rolled in his eyes, but he thought to himself, no matter how much he can't cry, now Daddy, his temples are gray, he is much older, his mother went early, and no one can talk to him on weekdays, how can he let him worry about it anymore.

"This ......"

Tang Jing's voice trembled a little, as if he had never expected his baby daughter to be born like this, he felt deeply remorseful, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Zhiyi swallowed her saliva, forcibly held back her feelings, and squeezed out a smile.

"It would be great if Xiao Yi could stay by his father's side for the rest of his life."

As soon as the words came out, Zhi Yi regretted it, and looked at Tang Jing frowning tightly, with a stern expression, and then quipped: "Daddy put on such a bitter gourd face, but he doesn't want to see Xiao Yi?!" ”

"Nonsense, Daddy thinks every day that Yi'er can return to Daddy, no, the official robe hasn't had time to change yet, your face is as big as the emperor, and you still have to meet in the official robe."

Tang Jing looked at the daughter in front of him jumping alive and joking, and his heart was a lot more relaxed.

"Huh, really?! So does Xiaoyi have a request? ”

"My precious daughter, where do you have to ask, you say, do you want the stars or the moon?" Tang Jing's usual face is majestic, and even his official friends for many years don't know that he usually has such an easy-going and interesting side.

"I don't want it, I just want my father to worry about me whenever I'm not at home in the future, but don't give me a snack, okay?" Zhiyi asked such a strange question, but she looked serious.

Tang Jing frowned again, as a parent, how can anyone not worry about their children, let alone such a well-behaved and sensible daughter, and now in order to maintain the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he is committed to Zhao Zixuan.

"How can Daddy ......?"

"If Daddy can't do it, Zhiyi won't go back to see Daddy in the future."

Zhiyi pretended to be angry and turned away with a pout.

"Don't, don't, alas...... Then you also promised Daddy that you don't have to worry too much about everything in the future, Daddy just wants to see you happy. ”

"Deal!"

The father and daughter raised their hands like children and slapped them three times.

Zhiyi stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion for two days and then returned to the General's Mansion, although he was nothing, but after all, staying in his mother's house for a long time would cause people to talk.

"Madame, you're back!" As soon as Zhiyi returned to the General's Mansion and was about to rest on the couch for a while, Ling'er's voice came from the door.

"Sister Ling'er, does she have something important? The young lady is tired all the way and is about to rest! Yan'er stopped the package she was sorting out in her hand and hurriedly came out to intercept Ling'er.

Ling'er poked her head into the room, and saw Zhiyi half-lying on the couch, squinting, so she lowered her loud voice, "Then don't disturb the young lady's rest, in fact, it's not a big deal, the general just came to the mansion today, and the general is going to leave him in the mansion for a family banquet in the evening, the general said, if the lady is free, she will attend, if you don't like to be noisy, you can not come forward to receive it."

"Ling'er come in."

Yan Er was about to say something, but was interrupted by Zhiyi before she could open her mouth quickly.

"Ma'am, are you tired?" Ling'er walked over and helped Zhiyi up.

"The general Ling'er just said, but Zhao Yi?"

"Yes, Madame ...... at night"

"Ling'er must have been dizzy by this scorching hot weather, since it is a family banquet, how can there be a reason why I don't appear."

"Yes, yes, Ling'er will go and tell the general."

Ling'er has served in the house for many years, but she is also clever, and she didn't dare to slack off when she heard Zhiyi say this, so she immediately went to tell Zhao Zixuan.

"Yan'er, wait for me to freshen up and dress up."

Zhiyi's mood fluctuated at this time, and it was difficult to calm down, presumably the woman in the East Chamber must also attend the family banquet, and the four people with such an embarrassing identity relationship were in the same house, so I don't know what kind of sparks will be sparked.

As night fell, the house was lit up, and the people were busy coming in and out, and after a while, the family banquet in the lobby was completed.

Zhiyi didn't dress up to attend, after all, it was just a family banquet, but she also dressed herself up carefully, looking more delicate and moving.

Zhi Yi stepped into the lobby, only to see that there were three people seated at the big table, Zhao Zixuan sat in the middle, a woman beside him, Zhao Yi sat on the left side of the table, Zhi Yi raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him, a light blue cloth shirt, a light gray cloth belt on his head, although he was dressed plainly, but his face was red and his lips were white, he was very beautiful and lovely, and there was a trace of chivalry between his eyebrows.

What's going on? The woman in front of her is far from what she imagined, she is not a vulgar and bewitching woman at all, and her body bones still reveal a sense of pride, not like an unreasonable person who occupies other people's husbands, although everyone can't help themselves, but if it wasn't really themselves who ruined their beautiful marriage?

Zhi Yi thought to herself, and she was confused for a while, so she sat down on the right side of the table. Zhao Yi and Zhao Zixuan were also stunned when they saw her sitting on the right side, the wife should have sat next to her husband when she was hospitalizing at home, although they had the name of husband and wife, when there was no husband and wife, it should be the same in etiquette.

The atmosphere seemed to cool down instantly, and there was only one person, calmly raising the wine glass in his hand, "Since it is a rare family banquet, then Xuanxuan will give you a glass first." After saying that, he drank it all, as if he regarded himself as the hostess of this mansion, and Zhiyi was just like Zhao Yi, just like the seat she sat in was just a guest.

Zhiyi still hasn't sorted out her clue yet, and now facing her lover, she felt a lot of depression in her heart, so she also raised the wine and drank it all.

"Ahem... cough cough ...... "I don't know if I drank too quickly, or if my love was out of control, Zhiyi coughed violently all of a sudden.

Seeing this, Yan'er wanted to rush up to support Zhiyi, but Zhiyi waved her hand to stop her.

"Miss Zhiyi, if you are unwell, you can go back to your room to rest." Xuanxuan said without being salty, and her eyes followed the wine jug in her hand until now, as if she was talking to herself.

Zhi Yi stabilized his body, slowly raised his head, and the man opposite looked at him upright, his eyes were complicated, Zhi Yi avoided this look, "Miss Xuanxuan said with a smile, Zhi Yi, as the general's wife, would not be so invincible." ”

"Hahaha...... What a general's wife, do you know that you are sitting in the wrong seat? Xuanxuan seemed to see that Zhiyi had already leaked confidence, and hit the nail on the head and hit Zhiyi's vital point.

Zhiyi's heart churned, if he intervened in the two of them, even if it was an order, it was also a loss, so he was silent.

"Xuanxuan!" Zhao Zixuan finally spoke, he glanced at Xuanxuan and motioned for her to stop.
