Chapter 542: The Lady of Shangshu
After handing over the matter of the banquet to the palace, Feng Beiying felt a lot more relaxed, and he didn't have to spend his own money, and he didn't have to worry about it, Feng Beiying was very happy. However, this queen must have other plans, and she must guard against her, so as not to go wrong again.
The palace was lit up, and the banquet began.
When Feng Beiying asked Feng Yanyi to send invitations, she sent them to girls of the same age as her at home, regardless of whether she was a concubine or a concubine.
But now the people at this banquet were different from what she had imagined. After all, it was handed over to the palace, so it was normal for some changes to occur, not to mention that after doing it in the palace, the relationship between the emperor and the emperor had to be considered, so there would also be some uninvited ministers. But for her, it does add a bit of difficulty.
"Nine Emperor Princes, the Emperor is looking for you." The Grand Duke walked up to Feng Yanyi and Feng Beiying, and said to Feng Yanyi.
"This dinner is about to start, I wonder what my father asked me to do?" Feng Yanyi looked at Feng Beiying and asked the Grand Duke.
"The emperor is busy these days, and so are you. Now at this time, the emperor has asked you to come over to learn chess. The Grand Duke said.
"Oh, good. Father-in-law let's go first. I'll say a few words and I'll go over. Feng Yanyi said politely to her father-in-law.
"The emperor is waiting for you in the study, I hope you will come over soon." The Grand Duke kindly reminded that the emperor was waiting for him on purpose.
Looking at the back of the eldest duke walking away, Feng Yanyi said to Feng Beiying: "Pay attention to yourself for a while, I'm not by your side, if you don't like it?" You don't have to deal with it. ”
"Got it, I'll take care of myself, and make sure I don't make any trouble with you." Feng Beiying held his small hand to his ear and reassured.
After Feng Yanyi was called away, only Feng Beiying and her three maidservants were left waiting here.
Feng Beiying walked interspersed in these crowds of toasters, which was very discordant. The people next to him were smiling and talking to the people around them, no matter what the purpose. She was the only one, alone and didn't greet everyone, just walking aimlessly.
Feng Beiying is actually choosing the right candidate. Originally, she wanted to bring those girls together, and when everyone was chatting, she could also observe it, and by the way, she could directly see the details of each other.
But now, the crowd is scattered, and the girls of each family follow behind their fathers, and there are few groups of three or five. It made it harder for her to pick people.
That look attracted the past, and I saw a few girls standing next to this man, all dressed up with flowers, looking at the one next to him who couldn't even get close to the middle man, and looked eager. Feng Beiying had a plan in his heart.
This is a suitable person, looking at her eagerly wanting to move in, Feng Beiying smiled, isn't this the most suitable person.
In the Great Yan Kingdom, women never participate in the court, and Feng Beiying does not ask about court affairs. Only those who have a good relationship with Feng Yanyi or have a particularly bad relationship will be paid attention to by Feng Beiying. As for most of the court officials, Feng Beiying looked at the appearance of being dressed up one by one, and was very puzzled, why did they dress up so similarly, making her look like a blind face.
After Feng Beiying went back, he asked Qing Xuan to inquire about who the girl was.
Qing Xuan soon came back with the news and gave the palace maid next to her a few taels of silver, and she soon got a lot of news about the military department's Shangshu.
"Miss, I inquired, it's the concubine of the Shangshu family of the military department." Qing Xuan looked at Feng Beiying and said, as if he was asking for credit.
"Qingxuan, why did you come back so soon." Feng Beiying looked at Qing Xuan, who had gone and returned, but she didn't expect her to come back so soon.
"It's good to take a piece of silver to buy a message, the palace maids in this palace, but you know more, if you are willing to spend money, you may be able to know the secrets of the emperor and the concubines!" Qing Xuan smiled and whispered.
"Oh, then tell me about the news!" Feng Beiying has never done this, but I feel that it is understandable for Qing Xuan to do this, after all, he can know the news so quickly.
"This secretary of the military department has a neutral attitude in the court, and he is not biased towards the side of the Nine Emperor Princes and at the same time does not favor the side of the Great Prince, which can be regarded as a clear stream in the court." Qing Xuan breathed a sigh of relief after saying so much.
"A breath of fresh air? If it was really a clear stream, then why was his little daughter like that? Feng Beiying said suspiciously, and he didn't believe Qing Xuan's words.
"Miss, what did you say, such a small voice, I didn't hear it." Qing Xuan looked at Feng Beiying's mouth and moved, not knowing what his master was muttering.
"Nothing, you continue." Feng Beiying asked Qing Xuan to continue.
"But this military department is a domineering person, although no one says that he is unreasonable, he will definitely not be able to suffer."
Qing Xuan looked at Feng Beiying, saw Feng Beiying nodded, and continued.
"This military department has an advantage, that is, it treats its own children, regardless of whether they are descendants or concubines. Miss doesn't know, now the court officials are treated like treasures in their families, and they always don't live too well because of their mother's troubles. Qing Xuan said this, and he wanted to choke.
"Then have you ever asked, what is the name of the outermost woman next to the military department Shangshu?" Feng Beiying saw that Qing Xuan had finished speaking, and asked again.
"Ah, I forgot to ask, I, I'll go again, Miss, you're waiting." Qing Xuan said embarrassedly, but he forgot to ask this most important question, and only heard them say that the military department was still in the book, and he ran away again.
"Miss, look at Qingxuan, it's better for me, it's lost." Yan Zi made up the gun in the back.
"Why don't you ask me in front of her, if you asked me in front of Qing Xuan just now, maybe I would answer your answer." Feng Beiying saw that this girl was really eccentric, and reprimanded.
"Miss, I inquired, the one you are talking about, she is the daughter of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of War, her name is Yu Qingxue." Qing Xuan was panting "whirring", which showed that she was running in a hurry.
"Ming Yao, you go and help me bring that Miss Qingxue over to me." Feng Beiying said to Ming Yao.
"Yan Zi, you go and help Qingxuan with that glass of water and let her rest and rest, after all, you have run such a long way." Said to Yan Zi again.
…………
"Miss Yu, the Ninth Princess invited you over for tea?" Ming Yao walked in front of the person and said.
"The Nine Princesses? I have never befriended the Nine Princesses. Yu Qingxue wanted to refuse.
"Yo, sister, what kind of blessing is this, I can be favored by the nine princesses, I heard that these nine princesses are the most picky, now that people have taken a fancy to you, why don't you hurry up?" The eldest daughter of the military department Shangshu next to him said.
"The Ninth Princess is still waiting for you, Miss Yu." Ming Yao said it again.
"Then I'll go with you!" Instead of being ridiculed here, Yu Qingxue might as well go somewhere else and feel better.
"When I see you today, I feel that you have won my heart. So people invited you to talk to you. After Feng Beiying saw Ming Yao coming over with someone, he spoke first.
"Thank you, Ninth Princess. It's a blessing for me to have you to come for tea. Yu Qingxue said politely.
