In the evening, Meng Sanqian and Li Chu entered Beijing in a sedan chair together, of course, Li Chu entered the palace as Meng Sanqian's personal attendant.

"Big brother, you're here." Meng Yunlan saw Meng Sanqian coming from a long distance, and jumped forward to grab Meng Sanqian's arm, how could she be less like her on this occasion. However, Mencius was still standing aside, he walked in an elegant style and was calm.

"Brother, you're here." Meng Ziyi also began to say hello, but his attention was mainly on Li Chu behind Meng Sanqian, and he was more curious about the relationship between them.

"Meng Duwei is good, Miss Meng is good." Anyway, he is also the person who has helped him, and Li Chu still has to do the etiquette that he should do, so he hurriedly clasped his hands into fists and bowed.

"In the future, there is no need to salute when there are no outsiders." Meng Ziyi said with a smile, but these words obviously included Li Chu in the ranks of his family, which made Meng Sanqian, who was listening on the sidelines, very comfortable.

"Second brother, how can you say that a subordinate is not an outsider? Don't need him to salute yet? Do you know some rules? "It's Meng Yunlan, a blind and pretentious girl, who is starting to figure out the number of Taos, and Meng Ziyi is here, after all, in her eyes, no one is worthy of being equal to her Meng Yunlan.

"If he sees you bowing once, then every time you see me in the future, you will bow down to me once." Meng Sanqian's face darkened, and he said it very seriously. Li Chu didn't have much reaction to Meng Yunlan's words, after all, he heard a lot more than these ugly words, but Meng Sanqian's reaction was a bit unexpected by everyone.

"Big brother, why have you been arguing with me lately, aren't you just teaching a subordinate some rules, are you going to murder me because of this?" Meng Yunlan pursed her lips and let go of Meng Sanqian's arm, the whole person was aggrieved, for fear that others would not know.

"As for." Meng Sanqian stared at Meng Yunlan very seriously and said, his eyes were very fierce, Meng Yunlan didn't expect that his eldest brother, who had always liked to indulge them, would be so serious this time, and he was suddenly cold. I didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Little sister, you know something. Whatever the eldest brother says, it's what it is. It's not too early, so let's go in first. "Mencius saw that the situation was not right, and hurried out to relieve the siege, this sister really has no brains, with this temper and this IQ, it is really difficult to survive in this deep palace.

Meng Sanqian didn't bother to continue to entangle with this sister here, and strode into the Houhe Garden. This lotus court was specially built by the queen mother, surrounded by lotus ponds, only the middle of the large pavilion and the road to this pavilion. Both the decoration and furnishings in the pavilion are all of the finest, and this has also become a place for the Queen Mother to entertain VIPs, and all the ministers who come here are important figures in the court, or there are important people behind them as backers.

The queen mother has not yet arrived, and there are only some ministers in the court, and these people are all first- and second-class officials, and the most powerful of them may be the Wu family.

"General Meng is here." "General Meng, don't come unharmed." The ministers inside, whether they are good friends with Meng Sanqian or not, come to greet them, after all, civil officials are still not very convincing in front of military generals, especially Meng Sanqian is still a general, who has led so many soldiers, and is also reused by the Queen Mother.

"Thank you." According to the usual practice, Meng Sanqian simply returned the salute, anyway, there were no acquaintances, too lazy to entangle, Meng Sanqian found his seat and sat down cross-legged, Li Chu's identity was a waiter, so he could only stand beside Meng Sanqian and wait.

At this moment, Qi Siyuan, the prince of Qi State, walked in, and this group of people surrounded him, shouting and asking for warmth, but the careful thoughts were also written on his face, but Meng Sanqian was not interested in him at all, and he didn't even bother to look at him.

"Hungry?" Meng Sanqian turned his head to ask Li Chu on the side, with a serious face.

But Li Chu was blinded by his serious appearance, this is in the palace, and all the people present are princes and nobles, this big brother is now actually concerned about whether he is hungry or not, is he crazy?

"Are you hungry?" Seeing that Li Chu didn't speak for a long time, Meng Sanqian turned around and was about to pull Li Chu to sit down, seeing Meng Sanqian's next behavior, Li Chu hurriedly took a step back, this person has many eyes, but everyone can't see that something is wrong.

"The general is too worried, I'll be fine if I eat less." On this occasion, it's better to do something that is in line with your identity.

Hearing Li Chu say this, Meng Sanqian restrained a little, but he was still sullen.

At this time, the queen mother and the emperor also walked in, but this emperor, who has been on the throne for several years, is now just twenty-five years old, and the entire imperial power is tightly held by the queen mother, and even the selection of concubines is done by the queen mother according to her own wishes, to say that one of the things that the emperor has done according to his own wishes for so many years is probably to leave the queen's seat empty and leave it to Wu Tingting's sister Wu Yingying, which is an infatuation, and Wu Yingying has also become the most favored and highest person in the harem. No, this banquet is Wu Yingying.

"The emperor is blessed with peace and security, and the queen mother's blessings are extended." Several ministers stood up and bowed in greeting.

"You're welcome, today is just an ordinary gathering, you don't have to be so restrained, let's all sit down." The queen mother's demeanor is down-to-earth and generous, but the emperor on the side is like a pendant, the emperor who has no real power, in these ministers, there is really no right to speak, everyone is just a formality.

The nine ministers sat down one after another, Qi Siyuan also took a seat, the attendants with him stood left and right, and of course, there were Houhe's exclusive maids to wait.

"Everyone is here today, I think everyone knows that it is to catch the wind for the prince of Qi who came from afar, now let us raise a glass together to congratulate Wu Qi on prosperity." The Queen Mother said a big circle in a high-sounding manner, but she still had her own thoughts in her heart, she wanted to change the name of Qi State, and it was uncomfortable to always be commensurate with the country, and it seemed inappropriate for other countries.

"May Wu Qi prosper." Everyone raised their glasses and drank together. The girls on the left and right poured wine one after another.

"Okay, you don't have to be like this, today's etiquette can be put aside, everyone can speak freely." The Queen Mother waved her hand, trying to make everyone relax.

"Queen Mother, the prince of Qi has come from afar, and he will live here in the future, it is better to let the prince of Qi go to Yanbo Shuge to study for a period of time, but it is also good to understand the culture of our Wu country, and promoting cultural exchanges is also conducive to the integration of our Wu and Qi." One of the ministers proposed.

"Good idea, Siyuan, what do you think?" The Queen Mother readily agreed, I don't know, I thought that the minister's words were arranged by the Queen Mother, of course, this is the guess of the people below, as smart as Qi Siyuan, and he saw through these undisguised tricks at a glance.

"Okay, I've always heard that Wu is academically advanced, and everyone who wins the list reads several volumes every year, and the people of all countries are amazed by this." Besides, the library is also a place where time can be arranged freely, compared to other positions, this is a good choice, Qi Siyuan readily agreed.

"However, the Queen Mother, I am new to the city, and I don't know much about many things in many places, so I wonder if I can ask the Queen Mother for a scholar?" Qi Siyuan is obviously directional.

"Yes, do you have a suitable candidate for Siyuan?" In order to show generosity, the Queen Mother also deliberately gave Qi Siyuan the right to choose, after all, this kid agrees with everything, and he is not too harsh.

"I think General Meng's attendants are good." Qi Siyuan set his eyes on Li Chu who was standing aside, and was mentioned on such an occasion for no reason, Li Chu was still a little at a loss, after all, he was taken away on the road last time, and the biggest suspect was Qi Siyuan, the prince of Qi who didn't know the details.

"No." Meng Sanqian, who was eating silently on the side, suddenly became energetic. It was his spirit that the people around him were all worried about him.

"Why?" Qi Siyuan noticed that the relationship between the two of them was not ordinary, and deliberately provoked this, but he didn't expect Meng Sanqian to react so much.

"He has just come to Wu State, and he doesn't know much about Wu State, so if he wants to say that he helped Prince Qi understand Wu State, he may really have more than enough heart and not enough strength." Meng Sanqian tried his best to keep good words, but Li Chu, who was standing on the side, obviously felt that the aura around Meng Sanqian had come out.

"Don't worry, general, the reason why I chose him is entirely because during the previous march, the two of us had a good conversation, and it would be a pleasure to have such a confidant to study with." Qi Siyuan said very emotionally, of course, everyone can see that these two people are on the bar.

"Then we are really coincidental, he and I are also confidants, and we talk more happily, this is tantamount to winning people's love, prince." To say that Meng Sanqian was just expressionless just now, then now his eyes are full of murderous energy. This made Li Chu, who was standing on the side, uneasy.

"Three thousand, it's just a subordinate, since the prince of Qi has come from afar, we, as the host, should let Rang Siyuan go." Looking at this fiery scene, the Queen Mother couldn't help but come out to relieve the siege.

"That's right, brother, it's just a subordinate, you can give it to the prince of Qi." Qi Siyuan was wearing a dark purple spring garden Luo green shirt, a tea and green hooked thunder pattern wide belt tied around his waist, flowing hair, and tiger eyes with bright eyes and bright teeth, he was really a romantic talent. From the time Qi Siyuan came in just now, Meng Yunlan's gaze stayed on him, and he never found a suitable opportunity to talk, just to make up for it.

"Queen Mother, what you said is wrong, a gentleman does not take the love of others, the prince of Qi must be a gentleman, how can he take away my love? Prince Qi, you said yes, right?" Meng Sanqian was really going to be angry with his sister, and he didn't even want to pay attention to her, but the queen mother was really troublesome. This is the first time that Meng Sanqian has realized the importance of power, and it is also the first time that he hopes that he can control life and death and be in a high position.
