Chapter 221: Worthy of Your Pleasure
Compared with Chu Nanyue, what is that just a shadow army?
Besides, Tanglin Shuo didn't feel like it was his own adventure at all. Because Chu Nanyue has always been able to bear his trust.
"General Chu, I tell you this today, I just want to prove one thing, I have never reserved anything about General Chu." Aventurine Road.
He didn't ask for Chu Nanyue's response, he just wanted Chu Nanyue to understand his attitude.
His feelings have always been pure, but he is not suppressed, and he is not aggressive towards Chu Nanyue.
And this kind of warmth and affection made Chu Nanyue feel more emotional.
Facing Donglin Shuo, Chu Nanyue felt that his heart was opening up little by little.
Chu Nanyue was thinking in her heart, not beware of Donglin Shuo suddenly getting closer, and the warm breath sprayed on Chu Nanyue's forehead, making her feel a little itchy.
"Does General Chu know one thing?" Tanglin Shuo asked.
His tone was tinged with tenderness, as if he was still talking about it.
Chu Nanyue was overwhelmed, and her speech became nervous: "What does the Sixth Highness mean?" ”
Shallow expression is more acceptable to people.
If Donglin Shuo really continued to press, she would feel embarrassed.
As if he had seen through her, Dongling Shuo asked in a solemn voice, "Does General Chu know that the twenty-third of this month is my mother's birthday?" ”
Chu Nanyue was stunned for a moment, as if he had been tricked, with shame in his heart, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he gave Dongling Shuo a warning look.
"Since it's the queen's birthday, it's bound to be a good one." Chu Nanyue said.
The queen's body has always been a concern of the royal family. It is rare to have a happy event, and I can take this opportunity to make the queen lively.
"It's nature." Tanglin Shuo said, "Not to mention the palace, even the Xie family is already in charge." ”
It turned out that for the relationship between the queen and the Xie family, although the palace also needed to organize a birthday banquet according to reason, in the end, the specific matters were delegated to the Xie family in the capital.
Since Xie Xun is the prime minister, he can naturally assist the Ministry of Rites and organize the queen's birthday banquet well.
The Xie family is the queen's maiden family, and the ministers in the court are not qualified to say anything.
What's more, as long as the Xie family intervenes in it, the cost required in the palace will also be reduced a lot.
The dignity of the royal family has been preserved, and the light that the Xie family has received from the queen is also there, isn't it the best of both worlds. Such a good thing, the royal family itself is also willing to do.
Chu Nanyue learned about the queen's birthday and the future birthday banquet in advance because of Donglin Shuo's casual remarks.
But because there are still several days apart, the palace does not ostentatiously do this. But there has already been a hustle and bustle in the court, and the queen is the master of the harem, and its significance is not only that, because the Xie family and the six princes Dongling Shuo's status is stable, and many courtiers have the heart to cling.
And because everyone got the gossip, I heard that the queen's birthday banquet for many years has been too bland, and she wants to come up with a new one this year, so she has prepared early.
In addition to the mother's son, there are also sons who are more expensive than their mothers. After all, Dongling Shuo is the only concubine of the emperor now, even if he is not crowned king, he will have a lot of weight in the emperor's heart.
Even if the queen is selfish, she sets the future princess of Tanglin Shuo as Xie Yinhua, and wants to promote the marriage of the two. But Tanglin Shuo's personal resistance was also seen by the courtiers.
Twisted melons are not sweet. Tanglin Shuo is not a peaceful and docile person, and even if the queen is in charge, he may not really be obedient.
Speaking of a thousand ways and ten thousand, although Xie Yinhua is extremely advantageous, he is not the only candidate for the imperial concubine of Tanglin Shuo.
There are so many school-age women in Beijing!
It wasn't until in the general's mansion that Chu Nanyue talked about it with Qingshuang, and he still sighed with emotion.
"I didn't expect a birthday banquet for the queen's mother to be turned into an arena by people chasing fame and fortune." Qingshuang pursed her lips. "However, since the queen mother has handed over the matter to the Xie family, her selfishness has long been clear."
Just like the most important thing about Qingshuang, it is the queen's attitude towards Chu Nanyue. Such preconceived ideas and-for-tat confrontations are also due to Xie Yinhua.
"People's minds always change." Chu Nanyue said.
At this moment, Chu Nanyue never thought that after a long time, her words would become a prophecy.
Qingshuang probably didn't think about her words carefully, and was still thinking about Xie Yinhua: "General, Miss Xie is definitely going to be out of the limelight." ”
On such an occasion, the Xie family hosted the birthday banquet again, Xie Yinhua ran beside the queen for a long time, and it was impossible not to become one of the protagonists this time.
"Don't mind anyone else's business." Chu Nanyue said indifferently, "How many people the queen will invite this time, and whether she will invite us, this is unknown." We are irrelevant people, and we shouldn't mess up our minds for Miss Xie. ”
In fact, Chu Nanyue did not have any special feelings for the queen. At most, it's just a good impression of the queen's dignified kindness.
But because of Donglin Shuo, Chu Nanyue treated the queen, although he said so, saying that he was an unrelated person. But in his heart, he invisibly paid attention to the queen's well-being. This kind of concern has a bit of a taste of love for the house and Wu, but Chu Nanyue knows that it is not limited to this.
Because of Xie Yinhua's slander and slander against the queen, or a kind of emotional misdirection, the queen has great prejudice against Chu Nanyue.
Although Chu Nanyue didn't care about Xie Yinhua, she had to care if the queen misunderstood her because of this.
Chu Nanyue is a person, and has always been known for being upright, if she really becomes a flattering villain in Xie Yinhua's mouth, then the first one who will not let her go is Chu Nanyue herself.
"That's what the general said." Qingshuang said, "But it's better to prepare in advance." The slave felt that the general would definitely go. ”
Because he followed Chu Nanyue back and forth to various palace banquets too many times, Qingshuang gained some experience more or less. As long as the courtiers must participate in the palace banquet, Chu Nanyue will not be able to go.
Like the queen who took the initiative to invite Chu Nanyue a few times ago, it was even more important to pay attention to the activities that she had specially written down.
In fact, it was indeed predicted by Qingshuang. Within a few days, the queen's birthday banquet officially began to be prepared.
The Xie family has always been a big man, although the royal family has repeatedly emphasized that they should be more frugal, the Xie family is just a little restrained and does not change its original intention.
As for the list of banquets that Qingshuang paid attention to, it also came down.
All the ministers of the court and the central government, as well as the nobles and sons of the capital, have all received invitations. And Chu Nanyue is a first-class general, so he is naturally among them.
"General, look!" Qingshuang took the invitation with some joy and handed it to Chu Nanyue.
Chu Nanyue put down the paperwork next to the table, and took the time to look at Qingshuang who was a little babbling helplessly.
"What's so good about you that deserves such pleasure?" Chu Nanyue said.
Qingshuang asked Chu Nanyue with a mysterious face: "General, what is the difference on this invitation?" ”
