Chapter 345: Banquet

Xu Hui put away her clothes, and when she came back, she proposed: "Since you have returned to the court, and there are so many newcomers, why don't we hold a banquet and invite everyone to come and have fun." ”

Bai Lintang didn't like such a lively occasion, and he had never organized such a banquet by himself, so when Xu Hui proposed it, he subconsciously wanted to refuse.

It's just that Xu Hui explained: "And we haven't publicly said Xi'er's identity, so we can take this opportunity to tell everyone, and we don't have to explain it again." ”

Xu Hui's words made some sense, which made Bai Lintang also a little shaken.

After thinking about it, he also felt that this was a good opportunity, so he nodded and said, "It's indeed a feasible way, but isn't it a little strange to start here?" ”

Bai Lintang always felt that it seemed a little awkward to use such a statement, after all, he had rarely attended such a party before.

However, Xu Hui was occasionally invited to the banquet of the official women, and she had some experience more than Bai Lintang, so she took the initiative to speak: "It's okay, there are many reasons for the official women's gathering, this is nothing." ”

It's just that she was also worried that Bai Lintang would not be suitable for such an occasion, so she said: "But if you don't want to invite those people you don't know well, then I will take the lead, and only invite the official wives to participate." ”

After Xu Hui said this, Bai Lintang also felt a little more relaxed.

Anyway, it's just to let everyone know Bai Susu's identity, and it's not a big problem to let these women come over, and there is no need for Bai Lintang's participation.

So Bai Lintang also nodded and said, "That's fine, then it's hard madam." ”

Xu Hui saw that he looked relaxed again, and replied with a smile: "It's just that I don't know the official wives above the court anymore, so I should find someone to help build the line." ”

Xu Hui thought about it and finally found a suitable candidate.

Early the next morning, Xu Hui handed over a post to the person she wanted to ask for help from, who was Bai Lintang's old friend, the woman of Xu Anhuai, the current secretary of the Ministry of War.

She and Xu Hui have also been old friends for many years, and it is this Xu woman who often invites her to banquets, so the social circle of the noble lady in the capital, as long as you ask her for help on time, it is right.

Mrs. Xu also listened to what Xu Anhuai said yesterday and knew about Bai Lintang's return to the phase, so as soon as she heard that Xu Hui was coming to visit, she immediately came out to greet her.

She smiled and said: "Why is the girl so polite, and she made a special trip over, if there is anything, let people say it, and my car will be able to pass immediately." ”

Xu Hui took her and walked inside, and replied with a hungry smile: "How can this trouble sister, I have something to ask for, and I have been back for so long, and I have not officially visited my door." ”

As she spoke, she motioned to the maid behind her to hand over the gifts she had prepared, all of which she had carefully selected, which was very much in line with Mrs. Xu's wishes.

When Mrs. Xu saw these satins, she was already smiling, they were all the colors she usually liked, and it could be seen that they had been prepared with care.

Originally, the relationship between the two of them was good, and Xu Anhuai and Xu Hui had the same surname, so they were both called brothers and sisters.

When Mrs. Xu heard that she needed help with something, she didn't shirk at all, but said: "If my sister wants anything, just say it, as long as my sister can help, I will definitely help." ”

Xu Hui sat down, explained her intentions, and said, "It's not that we moved to a new residence, and we didn't invite a few sisters to come over to have a look, and my sister also knows about my family's affairs, so I thought, find a time for us to get together." ”

When Mrs. Xu heard that it was such a trivial matter, she was naturally willing to help.

Whether it is standing in their previous relationship, or looking at the current status of Baifu, Xu Hui can ask her for help, which is something she should be happy about.

So Mrs. Xu agreed and said, "Don't worry, this matter will be handed over to me, the ladies and ladies in the capital, I guarantee that they will be complete by then." ”

Xu Hui knew that she had a wide range of people, and since she could guarantee this, she would naturally not adulterate it, so she was also relieved and replied: "Then I will thank my sister first." ”

The two exchanged pleasantries for a long time, and Xu Hui almost finished inquiring about the things she should inquire, probably knowing what the situation was in the court now, and she also had a basic understanding in her heart.

Now the most trusted by Chu Hengyu, in addition to a few Shangshu, only Cai Yibai has to be reused.

Those Shangshu Chu Hengyu almost didn't use newcomers, they were all known by Bai Lintang before, only the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was promoted from a low position, and Xu Hui had never heard Bai Lintang mention it.

I just heard Mrs. Xu say that the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is a literati who loves calligraphy and painting, and he also attaches great importance to etiquette, and there is only one daughter in the family, who is a well-known talented woman in the capital, and is deeply loved by her father.

Xu Hui didn't take it to heart at the time, after all, for her, her own daughter is not bad, and she is also a concubine, she was born beautiful, and there is nothing to envy others.

After Mrs. Xu praised the sky, she didn't see Xu Hui have any big reaction.

After thinking about it, he looked mysterious again, and said, "But there is something I have thought about, and I should talk to you." ”

Xu Hui looked at her like this, raised her eyebrows, and asked with a cooperative face: "What is the matter, please ask my sister for some advice." ”

With someone to cheer her on, Mrs. Xu also came to the scene, and said in a low voice: "This girl is famous and has a high spirit, and after mentioning her father to the Ministry of Rites, she had the intention of entering the palace." ”

She has already made it very clear that the daughter of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu is also staring at a position in the harem, looking at Mrs. Xu's appearance, it seems that she has not dispelled this idea so far.

Xu Hui has also understood it in the past few days, Chu Hengyu's mind towards Bai Susu should not change, and this position is also firmly under Bai Susu.

If there are still people who want to come in, they are undoubtedly just wanting to be favored.

After all, there is indeed only Bai Susu alone in the harem now, and there are not a few people in this capital who are staring at the position inside.

However, what can be taken out by Mrs. Xu alone should not be a good stubble.

Xu Hui silently kept this incident in her heart, and knew that this was a kind reminder, so she replied: "Thank you sister for reminding me, I have written it down, but I want to see what kind of person this first talented woman in the capital is." ”

Mrs. Xu saw that Xu Hui had received her love, but she didn't seem to be particularly worried, and guessed that she should be confident, so she also smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely send this post for you, so that my sister can take a good look." ”

Xu Hui didn't know what agreement had been made between Bai Susu and Chu Hengyu, but she also understood that it was not a good thing for Bai Susu that a newcomer had entered the harem before the wedding.
