046, Mid-Autumn Festival banquet

Qin Xueqiao hated Qin Bin for iron and steel, and while she was disappointed, she still couldn't forget to find a way back for herself.

The mother's family is unreliable, and she still has one last trump card, that is, her son Li Ziyang.

Even if Li Yuanting is unkind, for the sake of giving birth to such an excellent son for him, he should save some face for himself.

Gukou County is a large county in the south of Xia Kingdom, with many plains and few rivers and mountains, and is the main grain production base of Xia Kingdom.

This year, there was a sudden drought, the land was cracked, the crops dried up, and there was no harvest.

Many peasants do not have enough to eat, and even eat soil to relieve hunger.

When the emperor heard this, in order to show his benevolence, he sent Li Ziyang to escort a batch of grain to the disaster relief.

The eldest lady's room was out of the house for a few days, and she didn't know about it until she returned to the house after completing the disaster relief mission.

The smart and wise Li Ziyang, from his father's attitude towards this matter, and indirectly from the mouths of the maids and servants, figured out that this incident must be another farce directed and acted by his mother.

The day after Li Ziyang came back, the eldest lady just finished her mourning period and returned home.

The water-walking wing has been ordered to be renovated, and the interior is still furnished as before.

The eldest lady came back this time and changed her face again, as if nothing had happened.

I don't cry or make trouble, and my mental state is very good.

Li Ziyang heard that his mother had returned home, so he hurriedly went to ask for peace.

It was the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, and the heat was still there, and I knew that I was doing the last dying struggle, and I was screaming harder than ever.

Before Li Ziyang arrived at the door, he saw that the door of the wing room was wide open, and his mother was lying on the sandalwood recliner in the room, her eyes slightly closed, and her expression was peaceful.

The maid held a round fan embroidered with a delicate pattern and slowly fanned her in the wind.

"Greetings to the mother!" Li Ziyang approached and whispered.

The eldest lady Qin Xueqiao slowly opened her eyes, the corners of her mouth were hooked, and she reached out lovingly and stroked Li Ziyang's shoulder: "I've been suffering outside these days." ”

Li Ziyang found a stool in the room and sat down: "It's not hard, it's not hard to distribute food, and it's not a march to fight, this errand is very easy." ”

The eldest lady stretched, yawned, and said lazily, "I plan to prepare a banquet recently."

The first is to pick up your cousin Ruoxi back to save her relatives, and by the way to see her husband, and the second is to celebrate the safe return of your second mother and daughter.

This third is to successfully complete the task assigned by the emperor for you, and pick up the wind and wash the dust. What do you think? ”

"It's all up to your mother!" Li Ziyang knew that since his mother said it, it meant that she had decided to do it, and her opinion was irrelevant.

"If you have no objection, I will go and consult with your father to see what the date is."

"Good!"

"It's nothing, you just go back, I'll squint for a while." Qin Xueqiao closed her eyes again as she spoke.

When the eldest lady came back this time, she had an attitude of not investigating the past and being well, which was exactly the result that Li Yuanting wanted.

He did not interfere with the matter of holding a banquet proposed by the eldest lady, and he expected that the eldest lady would not make another time for a while.

So the whole Li Mansion was preparing for this banquet.

According to the meaning of the eldest lady, the more grand and luxurious the banquet, the better.

invited many princes and nobles to join the sons, and also invited a famous troupe in Cangzhou City to help.

The day of the banquet was set for the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15.

On this day, the autumn air is high and cool, and the wind is light and light.

The Li Mansion is full of lights, and the guests are full.

Present at the banquet were Princess Linglong of the Imperial Palace, Hua Yixing of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Qin Bin of the Qin Mansion, Bai Muxuan and Qin Ruoxi of the Garden, and Ye Qingyu's younger brother......

The banquet was lively and vulgar, the sound of silk and bamboo was endless, the banquet was staggered, the words were happy, and the joy was harmonious.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that everyone is bored, and they are just perfunctory greetings with each other, and singing and dancing are not fake, but they are not uncommon things in the palace, which makes people only annoying.

The eldest lady and Master Li were afraid that their young people would be restrained, so they did not attend, and of course Yu Huifang would not appear on such an occasion, but arranged a seat for Yu Yao.

Bai Muxuan's eyes kept staring at Yu Yao's side, he felt that it had only been a few months apart, and Yu Yao had changed too much, and his gestures showed everyone's beautiful demeanor.

Qin Bin found that this so-called concubine of the Qin Mansion was actually the demon girl who had upset him several times.

couldn't help but be stunned, how many identities does this woman have, it is simply pervasive.

You can meet her everywhere, and hating her and not killing her is really hateful.

also set his eyes on Yu Yao, as well as Hua Yixing, the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The more he looks, the more he loves, and the more he loves, the more he can't take his eyes off.

Li Ziyang, as the host, introduced everyone one by one.

Qin Bin stood up suddenly, and said loudly to Yuyao: "I heard that you were in a coma at the age of three and were driven out of the Li Mansion as a demon, and now you are standing here alive after more than ten years, I really doubt that you are the real Miss Li Mansion, or is it a fake?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was taken aback and looked at Yu Yao in surprise.

Yu Yao's expression was calm, she got up and owed to everyone, and slowly spoke: "Whether it's true or not, father and mother can tell the difference, so don't bother with cousin!" ”

"Haha~"

Everyone laughed, and they all thought that Qin Bin was meddling, and their own parents couldn't recognize their children.

Qin Bin's face was made hot, and he felt very shameless, so he sat down stupidly.

I wanted to continue to embarrass Yu Yao, but now I have dispelled my thoughts, so as not to let others feel that they are targeting Yu Yao.

Hua Yixing also stood up at this time: "Let's guess the lantern riddle, okay?" The loser has to perform a show live. ”

"Good!" Everyone applauded in agreement.

They are all young people, they like to be lively, and the more interesting and fun things the better.

"Then the playboy will make the first riddle for you." Li Ziyang proposed.

"Outside the sky, even in the middle, I can't guess, it's also bright, type."

Everyone is thinking about it~

"To spice things up, I'm suggesting that someone else can answer the question!" Hua Yixing proposed again.

"Feasible!" Someone chimed in.

"Okay! Interesting! Most agreed.

"Good! Then I'll ask Miss Yuyao to guess this question. Hua Yixing finally had the opportunity to interact with Yu Yao.

Yu Yao smiled and got up and replied, "The riddle of the playboy is the beautiful word of beauty?" ”

"Exactly! Miss Yu Yao is really beautiful and wise, and Lan Xinhui is qualitative. Hua Yixing praised it.

Qin Bin stood up again at this time: "I'll come up with a question: twenty-four o'clock, it will be difficult to get out in the end." typed a word, and also bothered Miss Yuyao to answer. ”

Yu Yao was still unhurried, and slowly got up and saluted Qin Bin: "Cousin has a heart, and he never forgets to remind me of my origin."

It is a privilege for a young lady to sit at the same table with all of you today. The riddle of my cousin's riddle is the word of the concubine, thank you cousin for reminding me, I am a concubine, destined to never come out. ”

After Yu Yao finished speaking, she humbly bowed to everyone and sat down gently.

The audience was dumbfounded again, and they all glanced at Qin Bin with contempt, this person was too despicable, openly trying to embarrass others in front of the public.

Qin Bin didn't expect Yu Yao to face it so calmly and without pretentiousness, which made him even more villainous.
