236, Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet (1)
In two days it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival.
I don't know if Gu Tingjun's bad taste has been committed again, or if he feels lonely after living in the deep palace for a long time, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival Palace actually has to hold a palace banquet, and it is also required that all officials of the fourth grade and above must bring their female dependents to participate.
Xie Chenfeng's level is enough, but Xu Tianci's level is also enough, so Liu Jiaojiao must follow Xu Tianci into the palace for a banquet, who made her the only eldest lady in Xu's mansion?
This time, even if the Xie family has the heart to stop it, there is nothing they can do, after all, the emperor's order cannot be violated.
When Cui was very dissatisfied and told Liu Jiaojiao the news, he worried: "This time you have to enter the palace with the surnamed Xu, remember to be careful in everything, firstly, men and women are set up separately, and secondly, he will not always pay attention to your safety, you can only pay more attention to yourself, after all, there are several things in the harem now, you must not get involved." β
Although Gu Tingjun strictly ordered not to leak what happened in the palace, he couldn't stop the people talking too much, and if the official position was relatively high, who didn't have a special news channel? The court and the harem were originally one.
Therefore, these things can only be hidden from the people below, and officials have already quietly exchanged news with each other.
Liu Jiaojiao nodded, "Auntie, don't worry, I know in my heart, I will bring the red sleeves and agarwood together." β
Cui Shi was still a little worried, and advised: "When I entered the palace last time, I saw that the queen's impression of you seemed to be good, if you really encounter any trouble, you can try to ask the queen for help." β
"Well, I made a note of it." Liu Jiaojiao agreed on her lips, but she didn't think so.
Which woman can stay in the harem is good? Even if Empress Sun seemed to be good to her, and she didn't get angry with her because of Sun Jizong's affairs, she didn't want to get too close to this group of women, and she was not interested in getting involved in the troubled waters of the harem.
"Since the emperor has spoken, he said that he will bring the female dependents of the family, and I don't know if your mother will go." Cui Shi said suddenly.
Liu Jiaojiao frowned and said, "Hasn't my mother's body always been bad?" It's so troublesome to go to the palace for a banquet, presumably she won't go, right? β
"Her body, hey......" Cui Shi sighed and shook his head, with pity and nostalgia in his eyes, "Actually, I quite wish she could go, you must also want to meet her, right?" β
Liu Jiaojiao really wanted to meet Xie Linlang, and if she wanted to take Xie Linlang away from the Xu Mansion, she had to meet first to discuss and listen to the other party's thoughts.
Xufu.
Xu Tianci came to the small Buddha hall again and asked Xie Linlang to prepare, and the Mid-Autumn Festival the day after tomorrow to enter the palace with him for a banquet.
As he expected, Xie Linlang refused without hesitation, just like rejecting all his requests over the years, with a resolute attitude and no mercy.
Xu Tianci didn't get angry this time, but said with a smile: "Jiaojiao will also go, don't you really want to see your daughter?" β
Xie Linlang's hand holding the Buddha beads tightened suddenly, raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were burning, and he said word by word: "Are you threatening me?" β
"No, I'm just telling you a fact, and you know very well what kind of place the palace is. Although Jiaojiao is my daughter of Xufu, she has grown up in the countryside since she was a child, and she has lost the face of so many people at the poetry meeting, if she sits alone in the middle of the group of female relatives who have resentment and discrimination against her, who knows what will happen? Ma'am, are you sure you can rest assured that she will face those alone? Xu Tianci smiled gently, but the words he said were heartfelt.
"Jiaojiao is your biological daughter!" Xie Linlang glared at him angrily.
"I've never denied this, and I love this daughter very much, but men and women have to sit separately, and even if I want to help, I'm afraid it won't be beyond my reach at that time." Xu Tianci looked innocent, and shrugged his shoulders very appropriately, saying that he was helpless.
Xie Linlang was so angry that he almost wanted to vomit blood, and his hatred for Xu Tianci in his heart reached its peak.
This man calculated her, calculated her family, and now counts her daughter, she was really blind back then, so she was confused by him.
It's really regretting that I didn't start at the beginning!
Xie Linlang stood up slowly, looked at Xu Tianci's eyes as sharp as a knife, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go!" β
In order to protect her daughter, she couldn't help but go.
Xu Tianci smiled with satisfaction, "That's right, I'll have someone send you some suitable clothes and jewelry tomorrow." β
After getting the answer he wanted, he left the small Buddha hall with great satisfaction.
Tinghe couldn't hide his worry and said: "Miss, you haven't appeared in front of people for many years, those ladies have always liked to chew the root of their tongues, and they will definitely arrange and target you." β
"The mouth grows on someone else, and they want to say, can I still stop it? Besides, what if someone makes up a few sentences? Have I been choreographed less over the years? Xie Linlang shook his head indifferently.
Tinghe was still very uneasy, bit his lower lip, and said firmly: "Miss, don't worry, the slave will definitely protect you and the little lady!" "Cool text
Xie Linlang pulled the corners of her mouth when she heard this, shook her head and said: "Although I haven't been out of the house for many years, I have also seen a lot of the methods between the female dependents, you don't have to worry about me, but Jiaojiao, you have to help me take care of it more, after all, she is still young and has no experience in dealing with that group of people." β
"Miss, the slave maid heard that the eldest lady is very good to the little lady, if she is her own, she will definitely arrange it properly, you should pay more attention to your body!"
"I've been raising this body for so many years, and it's not like this? That's it, I've already thought about it, as long as Jiaojiao is good. β
"Miss, you can't give up! You still have to watch the little lady get married, and you have to wait to hold your grandson in the future! β
As if thinking of something, Xie Linlang's face suddenly changed, "What you said reminded me, Jiaojiao has a marriage contract given by the emperor, but that prince of Wujun is like that, how can you let me rest assured that Jiaojiao will be married?" β
Hearing this, he pursed his lips and said with a touch of resentment: "Even if the prince is a good one, the Wujun Mansion will not be able to enter, have you forgotten the princess of the county?" The little lady will definitely be angry when she marries! β
"You're right, just because of what happened back then, she has always hated me, Jiaojiao is definitely not her favorite daughter-in-law, but this marriage contract is a gift from the emperor, even if I want to regret the marriage, I can't help it!"
"What if the master comes forward to find the emperor? Is it possible? β
"Hehe, where does he care about Jiaojiao's happiness? He estimated that Jiaojiao would hurry up and marry him immediately, so that he would have one more backer he could rely on! β
Seeing that Xie Linlang began to cough violently again because of his anger, he hurriedly reassured: "There are still two years left and right for Miss Xiao and Xu, Miss, don't be too anxious, let's find a way slowly." β
Xie Linlang coughed for a while before stopping, and after taking two deep breaths to smooth his breath, he spoke: "I ruined my marriage because I didn't know people clearly, I must not let Jiaojiao follow in my footsteps, my daughter must marry a man who treats her sincerely and is devoted to her, otherwise I would rather her never marry than I live like this!" β
"Little Miss is so smart, she will definitely marry a good lady, Miss, don't worry!"
"I hope so."
Although being threatened by Xu Tianci made Xie Linlang very angry, but thinking that she would be able to see her baby daughter who she had missed for many years the day after tomorrow, Xie Linlang's anger disappeared in an instant, and her originally pale face was faintly exposed with a very shallow flush because of excitement.
"Listen to He, you go out of the house at once, go and find the best tailor in the capital, I have to make clothes that look good, you remember to tell him, the clothes must be delivered by the morning after tomorrow at the latest, and I will pay three times the salary." Xie Linlang quickly commanded.
"Okay, slave and maid, let's do it." Tinghe immediately nodded in response.
Although Xie Linlang has lived separately from Xu Tianci since the Xie family had an accident and Liu Jiaojiao was lost, there is a great sense of old age and death, but Xu Tianci has never cut off her monthly monthly silver, and she has saved a lot over the years, not to mention that it is only three times the salary, no matter how much she can afford.
As soon as Tinghe took two steps, he heard Xie Linlang behind him raise his voice and call: "You can buy me some rouge gouache by the way." β
Tinghe turned his head, covered his lips and chuckled, and deliberately quipped: "Miss, don't worry, you know that you want to see Miss Meimei, and the slave will prepare everything you need." β
"You girl, go and come back quickly." Xie Linlang was a little embarrassed and gave her a blank look.
At night, Liu Jiaojiao used the excuse of being sleepy to sleep, sent all the people who were waiting, and then carried Xiaobai into the space.
Let Xiaobai drink the spiritual spring and spread joy everywhere, she walked into the house and began to call the system.
γDrip ...... What's the deal with the host? γ
"Lord System, I want to ask you, how is my mother's body? Can it still be cured? Because it was in space, she asked directly.
[With the invincible plug-in of this system, even if your mother loses her breath, this system can rescue her. γ
Your mother just lost her breath! Okay, you're just a bunch of data, no mother, this girl doesn't care about you.
"How many points do I need?"
[Your mother's situation is not troublesome, it is mainly a heart disease, as long as she is completely cut off from that scumbag, and then adjust her mentality, and then find a place with a good environment to recuperate carefully for a period of time, it is absolutely no problem to live to sixty or seventy. In this case, you don't need this system to provide you with any special medicine, so you don't need to redeem points, of course, if the host wants to skip those stages and let your mother's body quickly return to normal, Rejuvenation Pill understands? As long as it's only 150,000 points, it's a good deal? γ
Bargain for a ghost! What are the 150,000 points, knowing that she only has so many points to lose, and there is not enough to redeem them, and she deliberately tempts her with this thing!
"Okay, I understand, I'll talk about it when I have enough points, it's late, and you can sleep in the system."
[How many times have you said it, this system is not a person, so there is no need to sleep as a waste of time, the host you specially called the system out at night, do you think your little brother thinks of insomnia? ] Need to play you a lullaby? I don't want your points~]
"Hehe, no need, good intentions." I don't believe that the system will be so kind to her, who knows what kind of broken song that lullaby is, I can't give her a social shake and make her so excited that she can't sleep.
This kind of lack of morality system can definitely do it!
