Ruan Mianmian tried her best to put on a calm and gentle expression, and said lightly: "The county lord is named Ruliang, since you are the person next to the general, you are also a friend of the county lord and Yipinxiang, tonight we will hold a reception banquet for the general in Yipinxiang, is the young lady willing to come together?" ”

Elegantly took out a gilded invitation from his sleeve, the same as the one given to Jin Jiaoyang in the teahouse in the morning, and gently handed it to Xiao Li'er, Ruan Mianmian smiled indifferently, and looked at her and took it with sincere fear.

After giving the invitation, Ruan Mianmian was not worried that she would not come at all, this morning she saw the cannon take her handkerchief, such a scheming woman will try her best to consolidate her position no matter what, her identity in the capital is enough to make any woman feel pressure, not to mention that she is a girl who seems to be empty and has no family background.

Xiao Li'er took the post and didn't look at what words were written on it, in fact, she didn't know a few words at all, but her ability to read words and colors was unmatched. She could see Ruan Mianmian's anger and forbearance, and she could also see the confidence in her bones, she actually believed that she could compare to herself? Maybe it's because of her identity, but identity doesn't tell everything.

When she looked up again, Xiao Li'er also laughed: "Thank you to the county lord, the county lord's words will definitely be delivered." ”

Ruan Mianmian didn't say anything more, and the pastry box in his hand didn't let go and handed it out, he turned around and left with the box in his hand. Until Ruan Mianmian's carriage turned around and left, Xiao Li'er was still holding the invitation and looking at the road.

Fang Cannon's return to the barracks was already sunset, and he already knew about Yipinxiang's preparation for him to receive the wind banquet, so he hurriedly returned to his tent and dismissed everyone, took off his armor and changed into a set of black embroidered gold thread clothes, sorted out in front of the mirror for a while, and made sure that there was no problem and planned to call someone to prepare the horse, the handkerchief he accepted today was still close to his chest, and he couldn't wait to return to the home where he grew up.

As soon as he was ready, he saw Little Li'er coming in through the door through the mirror. She is wearing a very unusual dress today, no longer a navy blue coarse cloth skirt, she has changed into a dark dress, and her hair is also pulled diagonally with a simple ebony hairpin, without decoration but with a beautiful style. She was originally outstanding, and today she wore a thin light makeup, and her lips were moist peach-colored lipstick, reflecting a little shimmer, and she seemed to be pinching out the water.

"Why are you dressed like this?" Fang Dacang frowned and glanced her up and down, but found that a dark golden lotus was also embroidered with gold thread on the waistline of her skirt, which was shining, and people could see at a glance that this dress was somewhat similar to what she was wearing today.

"Brother Fang... Don't be angry, I didn't want to wear it like this, but today a Ruliang county lord came over, met Li'er, and gave Li'er an invitation, asking her to go to the general's reception banquet tonight, and Li'er didn't dare to disobey, so that's why..."Xiao Li'er spoke intermittently, in order to tell Fang Da Cannon that she didn't mean to be in the limelight, and it seemed that the Ruliang County Lord was domineering, but how did she know that Fang Da Cannon's understanding of Ruan Mianmian was unparalleled, and her thoughts were afraid that it would be in vain.

"Oh? She told you to go, and you went, and you didn't have to come and tell me. Fang Cannon dropped this sentence and brushed his sleeves away, and when Xiao Li'er chased out of the tent with a heavy skirt, he saw that his horse's hooves carried up dust all the way, and he didn't mean to wait for her at all.

Did he really take the initiative with that county? In terms of beauty, she is confident that the lord of Ruliang can't compare to her, and her temperament is also rare, but she just relies on her status and status, even if the two of them want something, it is impossible for them to get married immediately, even if they can't be a wife, it's not impossible to be a decent concubine, not to mention that if she became his person before he married, her reputation would never be too low.

Thinking like this, Xiao Lian'er didn't feel embarrassed, she called a carriage and followed her to the Jingshu County Lord's Mansion.

The capital said that the county lord of Jingshu and the county lord of Ruliang were the two favorite county lords of the queen mother and the emperor, and now when they arrived at the door, Xiao Li'er knew that what he had imagined before was not enough, because the banquet was held in the house today, regardless of politics and business in the capital, the slightly heady characters attended with their families, and they also had a gilded invitation. The lanterns are lit up at the door, and the luxurious colored fabrics can only be used as decorations and hung aside to add color to the lanterns, which looks extremely luxurious.

Xiao Li'er got off the car in front of the county lord's mansion, and there were a lot of brightly dressed guests in front of him who handed over invitations to enter the venue, and the door was greeted by Ruan Bai, who was sent to a pint of incense, she turned her head and saw Fang Cannon, he didn't have an invitation in his hand, but Ruan Bai was very good with him, and the two of them talked and laughed for a while before entering, and it seemed that the relationship was very unusual.

When it was Xiao Li'er's turn, she handed over the invitation alone, but the little palace maid who inspected it looked at her suspiciously for a while before letting her in, because she was really strange, which lady came to the banquet alone, and there was not even a maid, and her face was also very unfamiliar, not at all those people who often came and went from the county lord, this was because Ruan Mianmian gave the post privately, but did not explain to the palace maids in the house, that is, she deliberately asked her not to come in too smoothly, and rubbed her sharpness.

However, she was really beautiful and charming, and her manners were also appropriate, so the little palace maid returned the invitation to her, and went to greet other nobles after a simple and rough salute, without putting much effort into her. Many young ladies and ladies waiting outside who were chatting together naturally noticed the situation here, it was rare for a beautiful woman to go to a banquet alone, and they couldn't help but start to talk about it, guessing her origin, or which male host brought her female companion.

Of course, Xiao Lian'er heard a sentence and a half, but she didn't say anything, this is Fang Cannon's reception banquet, if she doesn't know how to raise and make a fuss, even if she can easily make the little palace maid apologize, but she will also let her image be greatly discounted in Fang Cannon's heart, this deal can't be done, so even if she is poked in the backbone and her fingers are pierced into the palm, she will not change her face and keep smiling.

At this time, Ruan Mianmian didn't know the situation at the door, Yi Pinxiang was the organizer of this banquet, as the first spokesperson, she naturally greeted the guests with busy feet without touching the ground, and when she saw Fang Cannon arrive as scheduled, she simply ran back to her position after a perfunctory while, and sat with Fang Cannon affectionately and laughed.

The guests also knew that this was the banquet of the newly appointed general who protected the country, and Ruan Mianmian as the host should accompany Fang Cannon to say a few words, not to mention that today's handkerchief incident at the West City Gate has spread all over the major circles in the capital, who doesn't know that the two people are likely to be like-minded, so they each got together to chat and sit down, and did not come to disturb the two golden boys and girls.

Xiao Li'er walked into the courtyard of the county lord's mansion, and saw that every grass and tree here was exquisite and rare, and the cornices and corridors were interspersed, which was the luxury and gorgeousness that Shacheng did not have. After stopping and looking at it for a while, she also figured out the layout of this place, the courtyard is very large and magnificent, divided into more than a dozen round tables, one table can seat more than a dozen people, and the largest table in the middle is also the most exquisite one, it seems that it is the table where Fang Cannon is going to sit today.

At this time, the food had not been served, and there were not many people seated when everyone talked and laughed, but she was a person from Fang Dacang's side, so she should naturally sit next to Fang Dacang, so she naturally walked towards the table in the middle.

At this time, Mu Ruqing and the others were still busy entertaining guests, so the table was not full, Ruan Mianmian and Fang Cannon sat next to each other, Ruan Mianmian on the other side was Liu Xin'er, the second lady of the Hou Mansion of Anyang, and then looked at the past King Lu Gui and his fiancée Princess Zhuen, this table is really all people with extraordinary status.

Xiao Li'er hesitated for a while, but she still made up her mind, tried her best to make herself look natural, and sat down directly on the seat on the other side of Fang Cannon, but it didn't matter if she sat down, the laughter and laughter on the table also came to an abrupt end, and several people looked at her sideways, their eyes were full of puzzlement, especially after Fang Cannon saw it, he moved directly to Ruan Mianmian's side, obviously not standing beside her.

"That's... Sleepy, you know? Lu Gui understood it at once, he also listened to these two things that Liu Xin'er said, presumably this is the little pity that annoyed Ruan Mianmian, and the person who makes his sister unhappy, no matter how beautiful he is, he thinks it is a sin, so he directly asked her identity, which is also embarrassing her in disguise.

"Ao, I know, I met in the barracks today, and I gave an invitation card casually, Miss Li'er doesn't have to be restrained, please take care of yourself." Ruan Mianmian smiled stylized politely, but secretly smiled in her heart, worthy of the famous mouth cannon Brother Lu, and asked the subject directly, which saved her a lot of effort.

"In this way, then I'll introduce it, this is the lord of Ruliang, this is Liu Xin'er, the second lady of the Anyang Hou Mansion, and this is the king's wife, Princess Zhu En, since you were brought back by the cannon, but you don't know where you came from?" Lu Gui shook his wine glass and accepted the admiring glances of everyone present.

Xiao Li'er's face was about to be unbearable, sitting here like sitting on pins and needles, this handsome prince spoke so facelessly, poked her most painful place every sentence, but still had to speak, and at the same time changed her tried and tested aggrieved expression: "Back to the prince, Xiao Li'er was born in the village near Shacheng, the family is just an ordinary villager, and then the barbarian army invaded, and the whole village was brutally killed, only Li'er was brought back to the barracks by the barbarian soldiers because of this face, and lived a life that was worse than death." ”

"But in the end, fortunately, Brother Fang saved Li'er, and Li'er was able to escape from the cage and survive, otherwise, Li'er wouldn't know how to survive in pain." Her expression was very well controlled, so moist that her eyes were slightly raised, just like a square cannon throwing a look of gratitude and adoration.
