Chapter 26: Spicy Chickens and Horses, Don't Wait 25

The steward asked hesitantly: "Your Highness, is the specification of this gift a congratulatory gift?" ”

Lian Mian thought for a moment and replied, "No. It doesn't have to be too expensive, just get by. ”

The steward had no extra expression, and after saying that he knew, he turned away to pick a return gift.

The next day, Lian Mian went to King Wu's mansion as promised.

The two mansions were not far apart, and it didn't take long to reach their destination.

After hearing the news, Princess Wu personally came to greet him.

Compared with King Wu, Zhou Zhishan saw Princess Wu more often, and when there was a palace banquet in the palace, the two would meet, and after Princess Wu welcomed people, she showed great affection.

"Since the last palace banquet, a lot of time has passed, and today I see that the eldest princess looks good, and I, as an aunt, finally feel a lot more at ease." Princess Wu said meaningfully.

Lian Mian smiled at each other, but when he couldn't hear the words in her words, he said politely: "The princess has a good complexion, and she seems to be a little younger than when she saw her again." ”

Princess Wu smiled and waved her hand, "The eldest princess said that she was already old." ”

He also said: "Now in private, the eldest princess should not be politely alienated from me, just call her aunt." "Call the princess, see more.

Lian slept but smiled silently, and did not accept Princess Wu's stubble.

Princess Wu continued: "Your uncle has been looking forward to your coming since he posted to your mansion yesterday, and today he got up early in the morning, busy with the front and back, saying that it is rare for you to come to the mansion as a guest, and you will definitely return satisfied." ”

Lian Mian smiled: "Uncle Huang has a heart, where can Zhishan afford it." ”

"What nonsense, where is there anything that can afford to stand it."

After Princess Wu welcomed Lian Mian into the flower hall, other ladies in the palace also came one after another, one by one.

Lian Mian chatted with a cadre of ladies for a long time, but he never saw King Wu's face, and it was not until after the banquet was held that he saw King Wu's face at the banquet, and in addition, there were several sons of King Wu.

According to the specifications that can see all the members of King Wu's family, King Wu's Mansion really attaches great importance to entertaining her today.

Of course, if King Wu hadn't borrowed a few glasses of rice wine into his stomach during the banquet, it would have been better to mention Jiang Jingzong quickly.

"If it weren't for yesterday's holy decree, I, who was an uncle, really didn't know that the kid of the Jiang family had failed you!" King Wu drank another glass, slapped the wine cup on the table, and became indignant, "Zhishan, don't worry, uncle will definitely help you clean up this cheap thing." Not only me, but you brothers will not sit idly by. ”

The named prince and others followed suit.

"Thank you, Uncle Huang, but you don't have to. I don't have a relationship with him anymore, and I don't want to waste any more energy on him. ”

King Wu looked at Lian Mian, "Zhishan, what are you talking about...... Are you really uninterested in him, or are you still reluctant to give him up in your heart? ”

"I have been reconciled with him, and from now on we will rejoice, and there is nothing to be reluctant about."

King Wu seemed to say something more, but was stopped by Princess Wu.

Princess Wu said angrily: "The prince has been mentioning what Jiang Jingzong is doing, it's really a pot that can't be opened!" ”

King Wu frowned and looked at Princess Wu, and complained: "What's the matter, I can't hold grievances for my niece?" A beautiful woman like a flower, Jiang Jingzong's cheap thing is really blind! ”

Lian Mian felt that she needed to make a statement: "Uncle Huang, I divorced him." ”

"Huh?" Wu Wangmu looked back in a daze, and didn't react to what Lian Mian suddenly meant.

Lian Mian smiled: "Although I agree with Uncle Huang's words, Jiang Jingzong is a cheap thing, but I divorced him." If he divorced me, I didn't need the imperial uncle to stand up for me, the imperial brother would have cut him down a long time ago. Right, Uncle Huang? ”

King Wu: "......"

Princess Wu and others: "......"

After a while, King Wu laughed and said, "Not bad, not bad." ”

Lian Mian kept smiling.

After a while, King Wu sighed again: "Take pity on my niece who is like a flower." ”

Lian Mian: No, I'm not pitiful!

In the end, King Wu's banquet ended with Zhou Zhishan's complaint on the left and Zhou Zhishan's pity on the right.

To be honest, because of King Wu's words, Lian Mian was a little unappetizing.

But at the same time, she also figured out a little bit of King Wu's calculations.

As the banquet passed, King Wu's Mansion began to post to the princess's mansion every now and then, and Lian Mian became more and more clear about what King Wu was thinking.

But Lian Mian is not worried, she can handle the small scene.

-

When the autumn wind blew in Beijing and the trees fell yellow, General Xie Wei, who was stationed at the Yezhou border pass, returned to Beijing in a low-key manner.

On this trip back to Beijing, Xie Wei only led a few pro-troops.

On the day he entered the city, Xie Wei specially unloaded his armor outside the city and traveled lightly to show his deference to the emperor.

This move naturally made Emperor Jing Yan quite useful, not counting the rewards for meritorious deeds, and also holding a celebration banquet without hesitation.

Before, this celebration banquet didn't sleep for anything, but now it's different from the past, Yezhou is her fiefdom, so she is qualified to attend this celebration banquet.

At the celebration banquet, Lian Mian met with this General Xie Wei.

Lian Mian didn't deliberately imagine what General Xie Wei, who was the pillar of the country, would look like, but obviously he didn't expect that this general would be a white-faced general.

Xie Wei is twenty-eight this year, and he has a slender figure, but to say that Kong Wu is powerful, it seems that he is still a little behind.

Different from the bare hair of ordinary military generals, Xie Wei had a clean face, took off his armor and changed into a long shirt and civilian clothes, saying that he was a literati scholar and did not violate the harmony.

Emperor Jing Yan spoke early in the morning, asking everyone to open their minds and not have to be restrained, but at the beginning of the banquet, everyone was not very open, until the wine was more than halfway through, the atmosphere slowly opened up, and everyone no longer sat on their seats, and began to move left and right.

Lian Mian sat under Emperor Jing Yan, seeing that the atmosphere had been completely lively, and when he was thinking about whether he was going to toast General Xie Wei with a glass of wine, he didn't expect this General Xie to come over to toast her first.

Xie Wei's purpose of toasting Lian Mian is very simple, now Yezhou is her fiefdom, and he is stationed in Yezhou, so this toast is in the form of officialdom, that is, the yamen catches the new county official as soon as possible, and in the words of the market, it is the strong dragon to visit the head snake.

"The eldest princess, the minister is clumsy, this cup is for the eldest princess, may the eldest princess live a long and healthy life."

"General Xie. Thank you so much General for guarding Yezhou. "Lian Mian raised his glass and saluted in the air.

Both of them were real people, and they all drank their toasts.

Xie Wei pinched the empty cup and was about to return to his seat, but he didn't expect a figure to come to his side, and said to himself: "The young general also wants to toast the eldest princess and aunt." The tail note of an aunt's call went up, which seemed to be flattering, but it was very deliberate to listen carefully.

Lian Mian: Auntie? Who is your aunt?

It was a half-grown teenager who came over to toast, and Lian Mian could tell the familiarity from his facial features just by looking at it.

Needless to say, this is the grandson of King Wu who didn't run away.

Although he knows who it is, Lian Mian still wants to maintain the original words, who is your aunt!
