Chapter 181: Lychee Family Banquet

Zhou Xiantai is a prince, and his biological mother is Empress Xue, the prime minister of his maternal grandfather, so his identity is here, and those who are willing to serve him sincerely will be able to stand ten miles outside the city from inside Changping City.

But even if there is never a shortage of effective people in his hands, Zhou Xiantai has always relied on Ji Lingfeng the most.

Although Ji Lingfeng is not from a noble family, and his ancestors don't even have officials, he is indeed talented and resourceful, which is what Zhou Xiantai values him most.

Just like now, he just told the scene that the Gu family saw as a joke, but Ji Lingfeng was able to analyze important information from it, and it was reasonable.

Immediately, the more Zhou Xiantai really thought about it, the more he felt that the other party's words were reasonable, originally he only regarded Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianrui, and the relationship was cautious, but he really didn't expect that the relationship between the other party and Zhou Xianyu was even more complicated.

Thinking of the 50,000 soldiers and horses in Zhou Xianyu's hands in the Beijing military camp, Zhou Xiantai immediately couldn't sit still.

"Ling Feng, I think your analysis is very correct, it is estimated that the relationship between Xiao Jinxuan and my seventh brother is probably really unusual, this woman and the fifth brother have joined forces, which has already caused us great trouble, if she is really with the seventh brother, then under her instigation, the emperor who has never participated in the party struggle, I am afraid that she will completely stand on the side of the ******, how can this be good."

Zhou Xianyu is not a ****** person now, and he only occasionally helps Zhou Xianrui, but even so, because of his existence, what the prince sends here to do, it is quite jealous.

If the other party really expressed his stance and stood on the side of the prince, Zhou Xiantai didn't even dare to imagine this consequence.

Hearing this, Ji Lingfeng's brows also furrowed, in fact, he still couldn't understand why Xiao Jinxuan had to help Zhou Xianrui and make enemies with them everywhere.

After all, between them, before Qian Ming's death, there was no life-and-death enmity at all, he really couldn't understand why this woman was so bold and had to do it with them.

But for this reason, even if Ji Lingfeng wanted to break his head, he naturally couldn't think of the past life and the present life.

But what he didn't expect was that the fourth lady of the Xiao family, who made him hate and respect, would be his wife in his previous life, and he was disgusted and used by him all his life, and in the end, he died tragically under his sword.

And after hearing Zhou Xiantai's words, Ji Lingfeng also knew in his heart that if Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyuzhen came together, the impact on them would definitely be a catastrophe.

In addition to this worry, somehow, Ji Lingfeng was very depressed in his heart now, especially when he expected that Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu were a couple, an extremely strong sense of jealousy spread in his heart without warning.

And there is always a voice in his head telling him that Xiao Jinxuan should be his person, although he can't say why he has this thought, but this feeling is extremely real and clear, and it is difficult to ignore it.

After taking a deep breath, Ji Lingfeng suppressed the irritability in his heart, a ray of resolute unwillingness flashed in his eyes, and then he said in a low voice:

"Your Royal Highness, since this Xiao Jinxuan and the royal king have come together, it will inevitably have a very bad impact on us, then you should send a letter back to the queen, so that she may not take advantage of Xiao Jinxuan's opportunity in the palace to get rid of her."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Lingfeng's mouth hooked up a sneer, since he couldn't get the other party, then he would ruin Xiao Jinxuan and let no one think about getting her again.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Lingfeng thought about it again, and said again very cautiously:

"But that Xiao Jinxuan is really not easy to deal with, the queen mother has never fought with her, Ling Feng is only worried about carelessness, and let this woman escape. But if she really failed to take her life, then His Royal Highness told Niangniang that she could put some effort into that Miss Gu family, after all, the other party was the niece of Concubine Liang, and the number of times she entered the palace would never be less. ”

Then Zhou Xiantai adopted Ji Lingfeng's suggestions one by one, and discussed with the other party for a long time, but he didn't dare to delay, so he wrote the letter that night and passed it to the palace.

And although the Fengxiang Palace received the news, it was calm in the palace for two days, as if this matter had just passed.

Until the third day, Xiao Jinxuan was also in the palace in a blink of an eye, and she stayed with Xiangping for several days, but after leaving the Forsythia Courtyard for a long time, she was always worried about the Shen family and Wen Xin, so she asked Concubine Liang to resign yesterday, hoping to leave the palace and return home.

But Concubine Liang did not agree, and asked her not to stay for one more day, because it is the season of lychee harvest in the south, so a lot of tribute lychees have been transported from there, and Concubine Liang's position is placed here, so naturally she has received a lot.

Therefore, Concubine Liang was in Yanqing Palace, preparing to hold a lychee family banquet, and called Zhou Xianrui and others to eat lychees and taste fine wine among relatives, which can be regarded as enjoying the joy of family.

When Xiao Jinxuan heard this, she immediately refused, because Zhou Xianrui would come, which meant that Zhou Xianyu would also come, but in the past few days in Yanqing Palace, Concubine Liang treated her with great care, and the other party repeatedly invited her to stay, if she refused, it would be too rude, and she could only stay.

And early this morning, Concubine Liang began to arrange a lychee banquet in the main hall, Xiao Jinxuan and Xiangping also got up very early to help together.

Not long after they had arranged everything, they heard a report from the eunuch outside, saying that Mrs. Gu had brought Gu Qingge and her eldest son Gu Qingping to come.

Today is a family banquet, and Mrs. Gu is Concubine Liang's half-sister, so she is naturally among the invitees, so Concubine Liang is busy calling the palace people and hurriedly welcoming them in.

It didn't take much effort for Mrs. Gu to lead a pair of children in, and after greeting each other with Concubine Liang, she noticed Xiao Jinxuan.

Looking at each other with some doubts, she asked with a smile on her face:

"Sister, this gentle-looking daughter, I don't know which noble girl it is, this temperament and eyebrows are really exciting, you don't want to introduce me to my sister."

In fact, Mrs. Gu and Xiao Jinxuan still have a relationship.

A while ago, the Gu family held a banquet, and Mrs. Gu greeted her in front of the mansion, but the other party only talked to Xiangping at that meeting, so she didn't have any impression of Xiao Jinxuan, and she didn't recognize her identity.

Concubine Liang smiled and pulled Xiao Jinxuan to her side, before she was about to introduce her to Mrs. Gu, but Gu Qingping, who didn't want to stand on the side, took a few steps forward and said first:

"Mother, this is Miss Jinxuan from Xiao Shuai's Mansion, I heard Qingge say that when my cousin Xiangping fell into the water in Guanyin Courtyard, it was thanks to Miss Jinxuan's rescue that she was able to get out of danger safely."

After introducing Xiao Jinxuan's identity to Mrs. Gu, Gu Qingping turned to look at the other party, then bowed and saluted, and said with a smile:

"Farewell to the golden study that day, Miss Jinxuan is all right, last time Qingping had no words, but she had a theoretical dispute with Miss in public, this is really against the gentleman's trip, how can Miss leave in a hurry, I didn't have time to sincerely apologize to you, please accept Qingping's courtesy, Miss Wanwang Jinxuan should not be blamed."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Qingping took two steps back, and then bent his waist with a serious expression, and made an apology very standardly, showing the gentleman's elegant demeanor.

Gu Qingping's actions made Xiao Jinxuan a little stunned, if it weren't for the other party mentioning it today, she would have forgotten all about the things in the study.

Because of the events of that day, it was just a few jokes, not to mention that she deliberately misinterpreted the meaning on the study plaque in order to protect Wen Xin, if she really said that she didn't want to go, it wouldn't be her turn, Gu Qingping apologized to her.

As soon as she came back to her senses, Xiao Jinxuan quickly turned her body to the side, avoiding Gu Qingping's apology, and hurriedly put her hands in front of her, and said with a blessing in return:

"Gu Gongzi, don't say that, that day was Jinxuan's battle for a while, if you are so polite, it will make me panic."

Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan and the others were so politely polite, Mrs. Gu was dumbfounded for a moment, and then hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and helped Xiao Jinxuan up.

"Look at it, Sister Liangfei has a banquet today, Miss Jinxuan is Xiangping's life-saving benefactor, they are all from her own family, why bother with so many courtesies, Qingping is a man, there should be a gentleman's measure, Miss Jinxuan doesn't have to be careful, let's sit down quickly."

With Mrs. Gu playing a round here, Xiao Jinxuan naturally smiled and brushed the matter over, but when she turned around and sat down, she didn't want her wrist to be grabbed by Gu Qingping.

Surprised, Xiao Jinxuan hurriedly looked at the other party, but Gu Qingping stared at her wrist tightly, and asked anxiously:

"Miss Jinxuan, how did you get the wound on your wrist, why don't you bandage it, otherwise you will get it if you are infected."

At this time, Xiao Jinxuan found out that Gu Qingping grabbed her, and it turned out that she saw the wounds on her wrist that she had been broken by Concubine Hui with her nails before, and immediately said with a smile:

"I am worried about Lao Gu Gongzi, my injury has been medicated, and now it is scabbing, if it is bandaged with gauze, it is not conducive to healing, and it is only a small injury, and it is not a big problem."

Hearing this, Gu Qingping breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, just when he accidentally saw Xiao Jinxuan's injury, he felt that his heart was tight, and this kind of distress that he had never felt before suddenly appeared.

Somehow, feeling the delicate touch of the plain white jade wrist that was tightly held in his palm, Gu Qingping's face was a little red, and he was a little reluctant to let go.

But at this moment, a cold and vicious voice suddenly came from behind Gu Qingping.

"I've seen the injury, Gu Qingping, if you don't let go of your hand, believe it or not, the king will chop off your claws now."

Gu Qingping, who was holding Xiao Jinxuan's wrist and was in a trance, only felt a chill all over his body when he heard this, and his right hand instinctively let go, and then quickly looked back.

It didn't matter if he turned around, Gu Qingping found that Zhou Xianyu was standing behind him, the other party's martial arts were superb, and there was no movement when he walked, Gu Qingping, who was completely unprepared, was almost frightened and his heart was about to jump out.

And Zhou Xianyu didn't even glance at Gu Qingping, who was coming to him, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he grabbed the other party's collar and threw him aside.

And himself, with a pair of phoenix eyes, looked at Xiao Jinxuan tightly from beginning to end, and took steps under his feet, Zhou Xianyu immediately came to Xiao Jinxuan with a gloomy face.
