Chapter 504: Lady Diplomacy

The royal street paved with blue bricks is more than two zhang wide, because the Son of Heaven and the concubine have to give a banquet in the palace, a large number of civil and military officials, noblewomen and celebrities have taken the carriage and ox cart to go to the banquet. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Pei Ying'er sat in the carriage and slowly drove towards the palace under the protection of the Liaodong guards. When Pei Ying'er came to the gate of the palace, there were already many carriages parked nearby.

This trip to Jiangdong was not a simple return to her parents' home, but an unusual special mission. In Wei Shuo's words, this is the so-called lady diplomacy. Originally, Princess Qinghe was the most suitable candidate, but unfortunately, the princess was pregnant and couldn't travel far at all.

When Pei Ying'er got out of the carriage and followed the palace maid who came to greet her to the harem, it happened that another carriage came, she couldn't help but stop, and then looked up at the person who came.

saw the curtain of the car move, and a pair of mother and daughter walked out, the older lady was nothing unusual, but the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl looked heroic, which attracted Pei Yinger's attention.

Although she only saw one side of the girl, it reminded Pei Yinger of the famous heroine in Liaodong - Pei Yinger, there are too many similarities between the two.

"Huh? Who's that, please? Since she was interested, Pei Ying'er couldn't help but ask the palace maid who led the way in front.

Obviously, the palace maid knew Pei Ying'er's identity, and when she saw her move, she hurriedly said cautiously: "Mrs. Hui, that is the wife and daughter of Lord Xun, the left servant of Shangshu!" ”

"Oh, it turns out that she is Xun Guanniang?"

Hearing this, Pei Yinger's heart moved, she was no stranger to Xun Guanniang, and her husband had sighed to her more than once, saying that there were three heroines in the world.

In addition to Shao Yuniang, who has made a name for herself in Liaodong, one of the remaining two is Li Xiu, the captain of Nanyi and the daughter of Li Yi, the assassin of Ningzhou.

The other is the Xun Guan Niang in front of her, she has been different from other girls since she was a child, she likes to punch and kick her legs, dance guns and swords, and at the age of thirteen, she has practiced a body of martial arts, swords, guns, swords, halberds, horseback riding and archery.

Just two years ago, when her father Xun Song was still guarding Wancheng, he was surrounded by rebels once, and it was Xun Guanniang who broke out of the siege to find reinforcements, repelled the rebels, and saved her father's life.

Last year, Sima Rui ascended the throne, Xun Song was transferred from the local government to the court to serve as the left servant of Shangshu, and was responsible for co-formulating the etiquette system with Diao Xie, which was deeply used by the Son of Heaven.

"Isn't the one in front of Mrs. Sima?"

Just when Pei Yinger was thinking about how to talk to Mrs. Xun's mother and daughter, she didn't expect Xun Guanniang to take the initiative to ask, Pei Yinger turned around and looked at Mrs. Xun's mother and daughter with a smile when she heard this.

Mrs. Xun looked a little cramped, took Xun Guanniang's hand and came to Pei Ying'er, and said carefully: "I'm sorry Mrs. Sima, it's the little girl who is reckless." ”

Although the Yingchuan Xun family and the Hedong Pei family are both top families, Xun Song obviously cannot be compared with the world-famous Sima Weishuo, and Mrs. Xun is afraid that her daughter will annoy Pei Yinger and bring disaster to her husband.

However, contrary to Mrs. Xun's expectations, Pei Yinger seemed to be very tolerant of her daughter Xun Guanniang, not only did she not blame her daughter for her rudeness, but even chatted with her daughter with great interest.

"Mrs. Wei, I heard that Liaodong allows women to be generals?"

"That's right! Now the world-famous General Shao Yuniang is a daughter! ”

"Is it General Shao who forced Shi Hu back, rescued Liu Gong, and sealed the wolf Juxu?"

When it comes to Shao Yuniang, Xun Guanniang can't help but show reverence, since she learned the name of Shao Yuniang, she always can't help but collect information related to it. Especially when Shao Yuniang's wolf Juxu was passed to Jianye, Xun Guanniang couldn't help but want to go to Liaodong to meet Shao Yuniang, who is a model for women in the world.

"It's that General Shao, in the first half of this year, General Shao followed the Great Sima on an expedition outside the Saiwai, broke the tens of thousands of Hulu in Mobei and the two departments of Rouran and Eile, and completed the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky in Wolf Juxu Mountain, becoming the first Great Jin general to complete this feat since the Wei and Jin Dynasties!"

"It's a great pity that I couldn't follow General Shao to Mobei in this life!" Xun Guanniang's face was full of regret.

Hearing this, Pei Ying'er couldn't help but say something: "I heard that Guan Niang likes swords, guns, swords, and halberds, if it's convenient, you might as well go to Liaodong, and the concubine can introduce you to General Shao, and I can't say that in the future, I will become a heroine like General Shao who commands the three armies!" ”

"Mrs. Xie, if there is a chance, the little girl will definitely go to Liaodong to visit Mrs. and General Shao!"

Mrs. Xun looked at her daughter who was chatting and laughing with Pei Ying'er thoughtfully, what a simple task it was to marry a woman from Xun Yu's descendants. His husband, Jun Xun Song, has lamented to her many times, saying that the Yingchuan Xun clan may completely decline in the near future.

Although Xun Song did not explain the reason to Mrs. Xun in detail, Mrs. Xun also guessed a little, but the Xun family had nothing to do with Sima Weishuo, the most powerful man today. In the future, once Liaodong unifies the world, their Xun family will naturally not be able to compete with the new giants in Liaodong who have followed Wei Shuo for many years, and decline is almost inevitable.

Along the way, the three of them had their own thoughts, and soon came to the place where Mrs. Zheng held a banquet, and the banquet was already full of noble ladies and celebrities. After Pei Yinger and Mrs. Xun's mother and daughter separated, she was guided by the palace maid to the first seat on the left, and opposite her was Cao, the wife of Wang Dao, the middle secretary.

The ancients had a saying: A wife is more expensive than a husband! As the wife of today's great Sima Weishuo, when Pei Ying'er came in, it immediately caused a commotion, and many noble ladies and ladies looked at her with jealousy, envy, indifference and other eyes.

Facing all kinds of eyes, Pei Ying'er walked to her seat without squinting, and looked up to meet Cao's eyes.

Cao's name is Cao Shu, she is not a good child, as Director Wang's wife, she is very jealous, so she is very strict with Director Wang. It is forbidden for Director Wang to have any maids around him, even if it is a male servant, Cao Shu must take a closer look. If he is handsome, the Cao family will also get angry, scold Director Wang, and then dismiss these beautiful men.

But things must be opposed, so Director Wang had to secretly raise concubines outside, so he gave birth to many children. Once, Cao Shu went out and saw a few children riding sheep from a distance, looking very good, in fact, these are Wang Dao's children.

Cao was curious for a while, so he asked the maid next to him to ask whose child it was, it was so cute. This question is not tight, and the matter of Wang Dao's concubine is suddenly exposed.

When Cao Shu heard this, it was really five thunderbolts, anger rose from the heart, and evil was born to the guts. She drove with more than 20 maidservants, each with a kitchen knife, and went out to find those concubines.

Director Wang was shocked when he got the news, and hurriedly went out to chase after him in an ox cart. Suspecting that the ox was running too slowly, he grabbed the railing of the cart with his left hand and helped the driver with a whisk in his right hand to help the driver beat the cow. galloped all the way, and finally arrived at the villa before Cao Shu and transferred the concubines safely.

When Pei Yinger looked at Cao's family, Cao's family was also observing Pei Ying'er up and down. The Cao family is very aware of the dirt between the Wang family and the Great Sima, and once the Great Sima gains power in the future, their Wang family will definitely not end well. However, the Cao family is not too worried about his own family, after all, the conflict between Da Sima and the Wang family is mainly focused on Wang Dun, and there is no major conflict with Wang Dao.

"Madame has arrived!"

With the shouting of the chamberlain, the originally noisy hall instantly quieted down, and I saw the graceful Zheng Achun walking over surrounded by the palace maids. All the noble ladies and ladies in the hall knelt on the ground to welcome Mrs. Zheng's arrival.

"Everyone, please get up!" Zheng Achun walked to the main seat in the middle with a smile on his face, and glanced at the Cao family and Pei Ying'er on the left and right.

"Today is the first day of the new year, the palace has prepared a little wine in the palace, thank you for coming to the banquet with ladies and little ladies."

"The mother is polite, I am deeply honored to be able to come to the palace for a banquet, and the concubines and others are deeply honored."

"Hahaha, the main purpose of today's banquet is to let everyone relax, so we only talk about family life, nothing else!"

"Do as the mother wills!"

The banquet soon began, and Pei Yinger showed her long-sleeved dancing skills, chatting and laughing with Mrs. Zheng, as if she had been a good friend for many years. This scene fell into the eyes of many people, and even the Cao family on the opposite side looked nervous.

Many people couldn't help but muttered in their hearts, could it be that Liaodong and the royal family really reached a secret agreement? (To be continued.) )
