Chapter 260 The housekeeper saw Qin Huaidao and hurried over. Qin Huaidao asked him about the preparations in the house, and the housekeeper said that they were all ready, the ingredients were all sent from the palace last night, and the drinks were also from the house.

Now those ingredients, what should have been cut have been cut, and what should be stewed has also been stewed, just wait for His Majesty and them to come, and then they are ready to start cooking.

"Well, send someone to the second uncle's side and tell him to come to the house to help, remember, he was asked to help, he is not qualified to participate in such a banquet." Qin Huaidao thought for a moment and said to the housekeeper.

"Yes, young master!" The housekeeper nodded, and immediately called a family member and asked him to find Liu Pingzhong,

And Qin Huaidao was sitting in the living room eating breakfast, Qin Jiao, Qin Shandao, and Wu Mei were all there.

"Today, Wu Mei entertains the female dependents, it is estimated that His Majesty will bring one or two concubines over, the crown princess will also come, the eldest princess will also come, in addition, the princesses of several other mansions will also come, you will entertain, Jiao'er, follow the sister-in-law to learn how to entertain the female dependents!" Qin Huaidao sat there and spoke.

"Yes, sir!" Wu Mei heard it and was very happy, although she was a concubine, but in many cases, he was half a hostess.

"Got it, brother!" Qin Jiao also smiled and said to Qin Huaidao, knowing that she didn't need to read a book today, just playing.

"Shandao, with my brother, entertain guests, remember to be polite." Qin Huaidao said to Qin Shandao.

"Yes, big brother!" Qin Shandao sat there and nodded and said,

These are all things that need to be taught from an early age, otherwise, even if you are in a high position, you will be said to be uneducated.

For example, Qin Jiao is now learning to be a female celebrity, she must learn these things, otherwise, if she gets married in the future, she won't even know how to make clothes, it will become a joke.

After breakfast, Qin Huaidao took Qin Shandao to the gate of the house, at this moment, there were also 2 stewards outside the gate of the house, more than 40 clever family members, among which Qin Huaidao's students came, and a few children who were studying in the house, because of Jilin, they were needed to guide the guests to the table.

"Pepin!" Not long after Qin Huaidao arrived, all six of Cheng's heirs and brothers came over.

"Haven't eaten yet, have you?" Qin Huaidao saw that they came over so early, so he asked.

"Eat, come over early to help you entertain guests." Cheng got off the horse and said, the family in the house immediately took over the horses, bolted them to the horse stakes next to the gate of the house, and at the same time brought the best horse material to feed the horses!

"Cheng, I guess I'm not busy today, I need you!" Qin Huaidao nodded with a smile and said,

Then the sons of his military generals also came to Qin Huaidao's mansion, all of them came to help Qin Huaidao entertain guests, they were very familiar with the front yard of Qin Huaidao's house, and they often came to eat, they entertained guests, and it was no problem to guide guests.

Qin Huaidao estimated that it was almost 10 o'clock, and guests began to come to the house, all of them were some third-grade officials, there were no lords, they needed to arrive first, Qin Huaidao invited them to come in and take a seat,

The tables were already full of melons, fruits and snacks, and there was a maid and a servant standing there, helping whenever they needed it.

Then slowly there were those low-level lords, some viscounts, earls and marquis began to rush to Qin Huaidao's mansion, and then there were those dukes and princes, when it was almost noon, Qin Huaidao was busy and couldn't win, they were all distinguished guests,

And Liu Pingzhong on the side also went back and forth I don't know how many times he has run, no way, he needs to guide the guests in, this doesn't need Qin Huaidao to greet him, he himself knows that such an opportunity is rare, he can recognize so many Guogong, he is familiar with a face, what needs to be coordinated in the future, it is also fast!

Soon, Qin Huaidao saw Fang Yiai coming over with a team of elite riders, and Qin Huaidao knew that Fang Yiai was on duty today.

"Pepin, Your Majesty and those heads of the family are here! A quarter of an hour at most, ready to go! Fang Yiai rode on the horse and said to Qin Huaidao, Qin Huaidao nodded, Fang Yiai pulled the horse rope, turned around and left,

At this time, the eldest princess came.

"I've seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!" Qin Huaidao immediately said to the eldest princess.

"Peping, yes, I heard the news yesterday, this palace is happy, this thing is done!" Li Lizhi got out of the carriage and said with a smile at Qin Huaidao.

"Yes, thank you Your Highness for your concern!" Qin Huaidao also said with his fists at Li Li.

"Well, I won't bother you today!" Li Lizhi said with a smile.

"Yes, second uncle, take the eldest princess over!" Qin Huaidao said to Liu Pingzhong, and at this time, Liu Pingzhong also immediately greeted him and led the way in front.

"You're Pepin's uncle?" The eldest princess asked with a smile.

"Back to Your Highness, yes!" Liu Pingzhong heard the eldest princess's question, and quickly replied with a smile.

"Well, Wupin official, in what department?" The eldest princess continued to ask.

"It's the household department, serving as a secretary!" Liu Pingzhong then replied honestly with a smile, he has been in the capital for a while, and he also knows the ability and majesty of the eldest princess.

"Well, do it well, the household department is the majority, it is very exercised, if it is decentralized, it is a fourth-grade member, if it is not decentralized, it is not impossible to serve as a third-grade member at that time, if there are difficulties in the future, it is inconvenient for Peping to come forward, you can go to the eldest princess's mansion to find the palace." The eldest princess said with a smile,

Liu Pingzhong hurriedly thanked, although he also knew that the eldest princess was just talking casually, but being able to say this to him was a great honor for him.

At this moment, on Liu Pingzhong's mansion, Liu Xiaoyi and Liu Xiaoliang were also greeting several carriages, and then an old man got down from the carriage.

"Grandpa!" The two of them went up and helped the old man, this person was really Qin Huaidao's grandfather.

"Well, where's your father?" The old man stood there, didn't see his son, and said a little unhappily, he had been sitting in the carriage for so long, and because he was unwell, he was still recuperating on the road for a few days.

This kid doesn't go to the gazebo 10 miles away to pick himself up, but he doesn't even mean to stand at the door of the house to pick him up.

"Grandpa, my father is not available today, today is the day when Hu Guogong held a banquet for His Majesty, early in the morning, Hu Guogong beckoned my father to come over to help, so I can only tell my grandson to greet you here,

I originally wanted to go to the pavilion to pick you up, but my father instructed me not to go, for fear that when Hu Guogong found out, he would come over in person and delay doing things for His Majesty, so I could only pick you up here.

In the evening, Dad will tell Hu Guogong that you are here! Liu Xiaoyi stood there and said to the old man.

"Oh, your cousin is going to hold a banquet for His Majesty in the mansion?" When the old man heard this, he asked in great surprise.

"Well, yes, grandpa, please inside, my mother is waiting for you inside!" Liu Xiaoyi nodded and said.

"Let's go, let's go!" As he spoke, the old man went inside, and his two grandchildren helped him inside.

"My daughter-in-law has seen my father!" As soon as the old man entered the door, Liu Pingzhong's daughter-in-law knelt down.

"Quick, get up, it's cold on the ground, it's cold on the ground, get up!" As soon as the old man saw his daughter-in-law, he went over to help him up, and it was also common sense for Liu Pingzhong's daughter-in-law to kneel, after all, Liu Pingzhong had been an official outside all the year round and had never been filial piety.

"Dad, master, he was called by Hu Guogong today, Hu Guogong also hopes that the lord can know more nobles, I heard that those who can participate in the banquet today are the lowest third-grade officials, most of whom are nobles of the dynasty,

Even His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will pass, Hu Guogong is kind, and the lord also knows that he can only wronged his father and cannot go to greet him in person. It's really unfilial! Liu Pingzhong's wife stood there and said apologetically.

"What do you say? What is unfilial, when I come to my son's house, I come to my own house, and I still need to be welcomed? If I wanted, I could live here until I died! Still need to be greeted? Big things are important, big things are important!

Hu Guogong gave such a good opportunity, if Ping Zhong didn't go, it would be a pity, it was rare for this nephew to miss the old love, and also helped Ping Zhong to rise to the fifth grade, whether it was out of kindness or in family affection, I have to help, I, an old man, what do I do? It's all about the big things! "The old man has always emphasized that big things are important,

Now the entire Yingchuan Liu family is Liu Pingzhong's highest position, and those people in the same clan say that Liu Pingzhong's future is limitless.

Because Qin Huaidao is here, Qin Huaidao is a prince of the dynasty, or an important minister trusted by His Majesty, plus Qin Huaidao and other national buses are good, when he reaches the age limit, it is estimated that he will be promoted, and he will not say that he is at a level and has been going around for more than ten years!

The old man was naturally happy to hear it! Therefore, when he learned that Liu Pingzhong wanted to stay in the capital, he sent all the money in his home!

"I've seen Auntie!" At this moment, behind the old man, a man in his twenties said to Liu Pingzhong's wife.

"You are, you are filial piety?" Liu Pingzhong's wife looked at the young man in great surprise.

"Yes, Auntie, it's been seven or eight years!" Liu Xiaoli arched his hand to Mrs. Liu Pingzhong and said, he is the eldest son of Liu Pingzhong's eldest brother Liu Pingren, that is, the eldest son and eldest grandson of the Liu family, Liu Xiaoli.

When they got married before, Liu Pingzhong and his wife went back, that is, they met once, and it has been seven or eight years since they parted.

"Oh, hurry, hurry, you will enter Beijing alone this time? What about my niece, and my nephew? Mrs. Liu Pingzhong said very excitedly, took Liu Xiaoli's hand and asked.

"It's still over there in Yingchuan, this time I'm escorting grandpa over!" Liu Xiaoli spoke.

"Well, it's hard for this kid! Let's go, go in and say, let me see, Chang'an's house! The old man said happily,

For the eldest son, he feels indebted, because he needs to take care of himself, he has never had the opportunity to serve as an official, and even taking this eldest grandson has been delayed.

So this time he brought Liu Xiaoli over, just to see if there was a chance and see if he could enter the court as an official, otherwise, he would be too sorry for his eldest son.
