Chapter 1109: The Wedding Banquet
Qi Ning's wedding, there are naturally not a few people who come to congratulate and participate in the wedding banquet, fortunately, the Huguo Mansion is spacious enough, a total of hundreds of tables are placed, these banquets are arranged by the five masters of the Qi family, those important ministers of the court are naturally sitting in the elegant seats in the inner hall, according to the level of official positions, the position they sit in is naturally very particular.
All the officials were familiar with this set of rules, and by the time the seats were arranged, it was already dark.
The clansmen of the Qi family and the people in the mansion are naturally busy greeting guests, Duan Canghai is afraid that there will be unscrupulous people to destroy it at this time, and leads people to guard around the Guogong Mansion to protect the safety of the guests, Xue Lingfeng of the Tiger God Camp also came to participate in the wedding banquet, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he also transferred people and horses to patrol around the Guogong Mansion.
Between the banquets, the staggered plans, everyone talked and laughed, but it was also full of joy.
Qi Ning, as the owner of the Guogong Mansion and the groom's official, has to toast between the tables, his alcohol consumption is actually not high, and everyone also knows that the circle of Xiao Guogong is saluted, Mo said that tonight in the cave room, I am afraid that even walking will be a problem, so I am also considerate, only let Qi Ning drink less, but even so, after more than a dozen tables, Qi Ning is already a little drunk.
When I arrived at Xue Lingfeng's table, most of them were military generals, even Qu Yanzhi of the Black Knife Battalion also came to participate in the wedding banquet, but the military generals drank very simply, Qi Ning just took a cup, the military general picked up the wine bowl, looked up and wiped it out, Qi Ning complained in his heart, he knew that he still had to pay attention to those civil officials, but these martial artists went straight to the bottom, and people had a bowl of wine, if you just drank a small sip, it would inevitably make people feel despised .
He suddenly thought of the energy in his body, after drinking three glasses of wine, Xue Lingfeng laughed and asked Qi Ning to eat a few mouthfuls of food to slow down, after Qi Ning sat down, one hand was placed below, and everyone laughed, but secretly used his strength to force the wine out of his hand, originally just wanted to try to see if it could be done, who knew that it was very smooth, the alcohol was forced out along his fingers, everyone present knew nothing, only for a moment, Qi Ning's little bit of alcohol gradually disappeared, but the whole person felt much sober.
Qi Ning was very happy in his heart, and secretly thought that with this means, even if he paid tribute to a few laps tonight, he would be safe and sound.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the situation not far away, and saw a table of banquets near the corner, but it was Chen Mukuan and Zhu Yuchen's gang of giants, he knew that this was Yuan Rong according to his own instructions, and invited those people over, but these people are just businessmen, with a humble status, and all the people present today are officials from the court, and any one of them is enough to step on those people, so the seats arranged are very remote.
He knew that this was also according to the status of the arrangement of seats, although he didn't care who was high and who was low, but if he followed the customs, if he broke the rules, it would inevitably make many people unhappy, seeing those people sitting there coldly, the scene was really a little embarrassing, just thinking about the past, but saw the eldest young master of Weitang porcelain, Chen Mukuan, suddenly stood up, holding a wine jug in his hand, holding a wine glass in the other hand, walked to the adjacent table, said a few words to the officials at the adjacent table with a smile, and then put the wine jug down, holding the glass with both hands, It seems to be a toast to those officials.
The officials who can sit next to Chen Mukuan naturally have a high status, but none of them looked at Chen Mukuan, they were all talking and laughing, and Chen Mukuan was left aside, Chen Mukuan drank all his glass of wine, and showed the bottom of the cup to those officials, and no one glanced at it, so he didn't give Chen Mukuan a little face.
Qi Ning frowned slightly, Chen Mukuan was a little embarrassed when he saw that everyone ignored him, his expression was gloomy, he picked up the pot of wine, turned around and returned to his seat, Qi Ning looked at it from a distance, and saw that Zhu Yuchen and the others also showed anger on their faces, but more helplessly.
Qi Ning knew that Chen Mukuan and the others must have discussed it, the table was too deserted, and he wanted to go over to toast people and liven up the atmosphere, but who knew that it was a humiliation.
Chen Mukuan and others' temperament, although Qi Ning does not know deeply, but he has also had contact with these people, although they are all rich children, but these people are also quite particular about doing things, and the grievances are clear, but many officials present, day and night, the wall grass is like grass, but it makes Qi Ning look down on it in his heart.
Xue Lingfeng saw what Qi Ning saw, and knew it, and suddenly saw Qi Ning get up and walk over there.
Yuan Rong has a wide range of friends, although he has no official status, but his grandfather is a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, and his father is also an errand boy in the Ministry of Rites, and he has a close personal relationship with Qi Ning, so when arranging the banquet, Yuan Rong's seat is not low, and it is not on Chen Mukuan's side.
Chen Mukuan and the others were gloomy, and suddenly heard a voice laughing: "A few young owners, can the dishes be to taste?" ”
The three of them followed the sound and looked at each other, only to see Qi Ning coming over with a wine glass, the three of them were startled and stood up one after another, but Qi Ning pressed his palm and motioned for the three to sit down, the three of them looked at each other, but where did they dare to sit down.
Qi Ning sat down beside Chen Mukuan, patted Chen Mukuan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Chen Gongzi, we haven't seen each other for a few days, I was still thinking about a few things a few days ago, I don't know if I can come over in time, today I saw that the three of them are here, my heart is very happy, come and come, fill all the wine." ”
When Chen Mukuan toasted just now, the officials at the table next to him ignored it, and at this time, they were stunned when they saw Qi Ning personally go over to toast.
After these officials sat down, they naturally didn't know Chen Mukuan and others, but today they attended the wedding banquet in the Guogong Mansion, and they were either rich or expensive, so they naturally inquired about it, and learned that Chen Mukuan was born as a businessman, so they didn't think that these businessmen had anything to do with the Guogong, but thought that there were many people in the Qi nationality who ran shops in the capital, maybe they were just business partners of the Qi people, and they came to participate in the wedding banquet in order to please the Duke of the Protector.
Chen Mukuan toasted, these officials knew his identity, so they naturally wouldn't excuse himself.
After Chen Mukuan and the three of them sat down, the look of surprise on their faces had not dissipated, after all, they knew very well in their hearts that today's Qi Ning was the only prince of the empire, and he was the emperor's favorite minister, and it was already luck to be able to participate in today's wedding banquet.
"Guogong, we ......!" Chen Mukuan didn't know what to say for a while, and his face was grateful.
People's hearts are long, Chen Mukuan and others participated in the wedding banquet today, and were despised and disdained by the officials, and several people also knew that if it was another occasion, a few people would have brushed their sleeves away, but after all, this depends on Qi Ning's face, and he couldn't help himself, but Chen Mukuan's toast was neglected, and a few people naturally had great grievances in their hearts, but they were helpless, at this time Qi Ning came over, and the grievances in the hearts of several people suddenly disappeared.
Jiang Cheng of Songjiang Tea House picked up the wine jug early, and several people poured wine, all of them got up and said to Qi Ning: "The joy of the wedding of the Duke of Guo, we ..... We are fortunate to be able to participate in the banquet, and we are fortunate to have three lives, and I wish the prince and his wife to grow old together! The three of them drank all the wine in the cup, Qi Ning laughed, and drank it all, and then said with a smile: "There are many guests today, if there is a place where the hospitality is not good, a few brothers will be more considerate, and I will have a few drinks with a few more on another day." He smiled and bowed his hand to a few people, and then left.
The officials on the side changed color even more, thinking that Guogong actually called these businessmen brothers, which was really amazing, and it could be seen from the title that the relationship between these people and Guogong was very good.
Several officials got together and whispered a few words, then they all got up one after another, walked over with cups, and smiled one by one, Chen Mukuan and the others knew it, although they were disgusted in their hearts, but they all got up with a smile on their faces.
"It turns out that a few of them are friends of Guogong." An official laughed and said: "Why didn't you say it earlier, come on, come on, everyone will drink this cup full, and if a few people are useful in the future, just ask." ”
"Yes, you are friends of Guogong, that is our friend." One person said shamelessly: "Let's have a few more drinks today, don't get drunk, come, I'll do it first as respect." ”
There are even officials who have already sat down on the empty seats at this table, and said with a smile: "What kind of business are the brothers doing, and the contemptible people are on errands in the household department, maybe there is something that can help, you might as well have a good chat." ”
Chen Mukuan and the three of them only felt comfortable for a while, and they were all funny in their hearts, but they all thought in their hearts, Yuan Rong was entrusted by the small country to see the Haibo Division, the small country is so righteous today, then the matter of the Haibo Division is his own business, and he will definitely fully support the small country to do a good job in the future.
Qi Ning naturally saw that as soon as he left, the group of officials leaned over, sneering in his heart, he knew that as long as he went over to toast a glass of wine at will, those officials would not dare to underestimate Chen Mukuan and the others, Chen Mukuan and the others were invited by themselves, so naturally they could not be wronged.
This night the Huguo Mansion is naturally the most lively place in the entire capital, although Qi Ning forced out the wine with internal strength, but after all, there are many guests, and he still feels a little dizzy later, which is really a little uncomfortable, and secretly left the banquet, most of the officials are also a little drunk, and naturally they will not look for where the little Guogong has gone at this time.
Qi Ning was a little drunk, and went straight to Dongyuan, and was passing through a flower bush, when he suddenly heard a voice from the side: "Ugly obedient, after eating this pastry, go back to sleep well, today is the day of the marriage of the prince, you can't run around and scare the guests." ”
Qi Ning was a little strange, and when he looked around, under the moonlight, he saw the black monster sitting on the grass, gobbling up a piece of pastry, and a maid squatting on the side, holding a fragrant cheek in one hand, looking at the black monster.
The big black man seemed to hear the movement, raised his head, and when he saw Qi Ning in the moonlight, he immediately grinned, got up, and took half of the pastry in his hand and sent it to Qi Ning's mouth.
Qi Ning knew that he had good intentions, since this black monster entered the Hou Mansion, the greatest pleasure was to eat, but fortunately, the Qi family was full of food for him, so that the black man could divide his own food, and it can be seen that this strange man really values himself.
He knew that although the black man was not bright, he knew that it was the bad one, and the black man remembered that he had saved him in the first place, and he also remembered that he had taken him back to the Hou Mansion and had a worry-free life today.
The maid also got up, saw Qi Ning, and hurriedly came over to salute, Qi Ning recognized it as Su Lan, and the strange man was in this Nuoda mansion, except for Qi Ning, he would only listen to Su Lan's words.
"I've just eaten enough, you eat yourself." Qi Ning said with a smile: "If you like to eat, ask Miss Sulan for it, and make sure you eat enough." ”
The strange man let out an "ah", turned his head, looked at Su Lan, and said with a smile: "Lan Lan..... Lan Lan .....! "Although he looks ugly, he looks innocent and innocent. (https:)
