Chapter 508: Family Banquet
Seeing this, Zhi Zhao hurriedly stepped forward, and bowed deeply to Chen Ningmo, who was sitting on the chair, and his tone was full of surprise but respect: "Student Zhi Zhao, I have seen my teacher." β
Chen Ningmo personally got up and helped Zhi Zhao up, and said with a smile: "I am already a person who is the governor of the capital, why do I need to be so polite?" β
Zhi Zhao shook his head and said: "One day is a teacher and a father for life, no matter how high and big the student's official position is, he is also a student of the teacher, and this will never change." β
Chen Ningmo smiled noncommittally, and then he held on to Zhe Zhao's shoulder and said with a smile: "Come, let the teacher take a look, but there has been a long change." After saying that, he looked at it carefully, and then he was satisfied and said: "It still hasn't changed much, it's as beautiful as in the past." β
Hearing such praise, Zhi Zhao showed a shy face, and then grabbed Cui Wenqing, who was hiding behind to watch the excitement and make a face of the melon-eating crowd, and bowed his hand and thanked: "The teacher can take time out of his busy schedule to teach the husband in person, the student is really grateful, and I don't know how the husband is studying, but have you caused trouble to the teacher?" β
Hearing this, Cui Wenqing's scalp instantly became numb.
Chen Ningmo looked at Cui Wenqing with a smile for a while, and in the latter's slightly uneasy expression, he said calmly: "Wenqing's academic homework is not bad, as long as he is willing to work hard, I believe that there should not be too much of a problem in the imperial examination next year." β
Suddenly, Cui Wenqing's heart was relieved, but he didn't understand why Chen Ningmo was willing to hide it for him, but he saw that Zhi Zhao was already smiling and said: "With the teacher's words, the student will rest assured, in the future, the husband will still have a lot of trouble with the teacher, and please ask the teacher to supervise his studies." β
Chen Ningmo nodded and agreed.
A moment later, the luncheon began, and the family sat down happily.
The Yang family was originally a family of generals, and Rao was a person like Yang Huaiyu who was a civil servant, and he was also familiar with the battle formations of the soldiers and planned military strategies, so the topic of the banquet naturally did not leave the war against Western Xia not long ago.
After telling the specific situation, Yang Wenguang couldn't help but agree: "You have chosen the timing of your troops very correctly, and you have also really grasped the fleeting omission of the wild cattle dry, this big victory is too important for our Daqi." β
Hearing such an evaluation, Zhi Zhao nodded and at the same time, he also put forward some of his own opinions: "Actually, grandfather, Zhao'er feels that it is a bit of a fluke to win this victory. β
"Oh, what do you mean?" Without waiting for Yang Wenguang to ask, Yang Shikui couldn't help but ask.
Zhi Zhao sighed lightly and replied: "Last year, the Western Xia Emperor Li Yuanhao was assassinated on the way to hunt, and the crown prince Li Ning Lingge was sentenced for treason, resulting in Li Liangzuo, who was only ten years old, ascending the throne as the emperor. β
Listening to the words of Zhe Zhao, Yang Wenguang said: "According to the report of the spies lurking in Xingqing Mansion, Li Yuanhao's hunting was attacked and killed by assassins, which was originally a plan set up by the black cloud and his brother did not hide the false Pang, it is rumored that Li Yuanhao saw that the wife of the prince Li Ning Lingge was beautiful and took it to be a concubine, and the queen did not hide the black cloud and was worried that the Wuyi clan would endanger her queen's position, so she instructed the Wuzang Pang to provoke the inner circle in front of Li Ning Lingge, Li Ning Ling Brother was angry, and invited the assassin to assassinate Li Yuanhao on the day of the hunt. After the success, I thought I would be able to ascend to the throne of God, but I was unintentionally killed by the party that did not hide the black cloud, and the black cloud also took advantage of this to help his son Li Liangzuo to the throne. β
After listening, Yang Huaiyu couldn't help but sigh: "As the saying goes, the most poisonous woman's heart, this is really not simple without hiding black clouds, if there is such a female regent in Western Xia, I am afraid that her ability is not under the late Empress Dowager Xiao of Liao." β
Hearing the words, everyone present was silent.
Cui Wenqing smiled and said, "Everyone, in fact, I think this is easy to deal with without hiding black clouds." β
Yang Wenguang suddenly became interested when he heard this, and asked with a smile: "Could it be that Wenqing has no high opinion?" β
Cui Wenqing pretended to be righteous and said: "Does Xixia have a heroine who hides black clouds, but we also have a heroine like my lady in Daqi, are you still afraid that she won't be able to hide black clouds?!" β
When the words fell, everyone present laughed, and Zhi Zhao glared at Cui Wenqing angrily, and finally couldn't help laughing.
Only Yang Huairen snorted coldly, and said with dissatisfaction: "How can you talk so crazy at the moment of discussing major matters, Wen Qing, you are really unruly." β
Cui Wenqing said with a smile: "Today's family banquet, why mention these troublesome things, grandfather, let's just focus on wine and food." β
Yang Wenguang understood what Cui Wenqing meant, and said with a smile: "Wenqing's proposal is not bad, come on, let's continue drinking." β
After the luncheon, the crowd dispersed, and after a tiring journey, they also returned to their rooms to rest.
Fortunately, there are more rooms in Xiuzhuyuan, which also avoids the embarrassment of Zhe Zhao and Cui Wenqing living in the same room.
At dusk, Zhi Zhao woke up leisurely, stretched his body lazily, and then put on his clothes and went out of the door, and saw Cui Wenqing sitting under the porch enjoying the snow scene in the courtyard.
Seeing this, Zhi Zhao smiled slightly, walked over and sat on the steps of the porch like him, and asked, "My husband seems to be preoccupied!" β
Cui Wenqing was stunned, and said with a chuckle: "Don't hide it from the lady, in fact, I'm thinking about the lotus leaf." β
"Lotus leaves?" Zhe Zhao frowned slightly, and sighed lightly, "I have asked people to investigate secretly, but I don't know why Junwutang wanted to take the lotus leaf away, and besides, the lotus leaf is an insignificant little maid in the Governor's Mansion of my Zhenwu Army, so it stands to reason that Junwutang should not be so troublesome." β
Cui Wenqing said with a calm face: "There must be a demon when things go wrong, lady, in fact, I have been thinking just now, will the lotus leaf be related to the coup d'Γ©tat in Western Xia?" β
Zhi Zhao was silent for a while, but he shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, besides, the current situation in Western Xia has stabilized, and the forces of the Military Wutang have quietly withdrawn from Fuzhou, and they have never been found to track down the whereabouts of the lotus leaf." β
Hearing this, Cui Wenqing relieved his heart, stretched his waist and asked with a smile: "By the way, lady, how long are you going to stay in Beijing this time?" β
Zhi Zhao smiled and said: "It's winter now, there will be no big war in Fuzhou, and the resettlement is already on the right track, and there is no need for me to personally supervise it, if there are no other major events, I think it should be after the beginning of spring before returning to Fuzhou." β
As soon as he heard this, Cui Wenqing was immediately overjoyed, so it was a joy for him to leave at least two months before Zhi Zhao left.
On the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the beautiful scenery of the good day, Buyi wishes you a happy and healthy family.
