Chapter 152: The Banquet

Xu Huaiqing glanced at the student and asked again, "Are you sure the governor is the crown prince. Party? ”

In the face of Xu Huaiqing's inquiry, the student nodded vigorously, "The student can confirm." I told Mr. Xu the truth, not only rumors, but also students have seen the governor accompany the prince on his trip, and he complimented the prince vigorously, and I can never forget that face to this day. ”

Hearing the student's words, Xu Huaiqing raised his hand, patted the student's shoulder gently, and admonished, "That's the end of what you and I said today." After leaving here, he didn't count them all, and he didn't want to mention them to anyone else. ”

"I understand what Mr. Xu means. Rest assured, I won't mention today's conversation between the two of us to anyone. ”

After watching the students leave, Xu Huaiqing frowned slightly and thought carefully. Since the governor came forward to protect the Bai family, it can be said that Bai Jiujiu is the opponent. Although Bai Jiujiu didn't say it, Xu Huaiqing's heart was clear. Mirror-like. If there is an opportunity, Bai Jiujiu will definitely find a way to make the governor and the Bai family fall together.

The governor is the crown prince. In Xu Huaiqing's opinion, the party's information may be able to help her when Bai Jiujiu acts in the future. After all, taking the liberty of standing in line in the struggle for imperial power is a matter of walking on the tip of a knife. If you don't use it, it's really unreasonable.

I kept this matter silently in my heart, although there was no way to make a fuss about it for the time being. But as the so-called coming day is long, Xu Huaiqing believes that one day, this matter can come in handy, and when the time comes, they will calculate this account with the governor.

Thinking of this, Xu Huaiqing pretended that nothing had happened, returned to the private school with a calm face, and continued his homework that he had not finished yesterday.

The days passed quietly, and the previous turmoil was like a dream, which dissipated with the fulfillment of life.

Recently, the spring. The light was just right, and the breeze brought a cool breath.

Bai Jiujiu stretched and was about to get up, when a maid ran in in a hurry, "Madam, why are you still in bed, Mrs. County Ling sent someone to send an invitation early in the morning, and I am afraid that only Madame is left at this time, and you are not present." ”

"Oh? Then I'll get up. Bai Jiujiu said as she got up lazily, and the little maid on the side hurriedly went up to dress her up, although Bai Jiujiu herself said that she didn't need to serve her like this, but those little maids didn't dare not really not serve.

Soon, Bai Jiujiu finished washing up and sat in front of the dresser, and the somewhat blurry copper mirror reflected her white. With a beautiful face, the maid behind her was holding an ebony comb in her hand, gently brushing her black and bright hair, and while combing it, the little maid couldn't help but sigh, "Madam, your hair is really good." ”

After skillfully pulling a spirit snake bun, he put on makeup for her carefully, and after cleaning up, Bai Jiujiu smiled, "Let's go." ”

The already bright facial features are under the costume, which makes people feel a little dizzy.

"I'm coming back to my senses." Bai Jiujiujiao smiled and nodded the maid's forehead, and the maid came back to her senses, thinking that she was stunned by her wife just now, she immediately blushed, and hurriedly helped Bai Jiujiu out of the door in a panic.

Outside the door, a carriage had been waiting outside for a long time, and when he saw Bai Jiujiu coming out, the groom hurriedly squatted down so that Bai Jiujiu could step on the carriage.

"No, you can get up quickly, I can get on it myself." Bai Jiujiu hurriedly said, she always felt that stepping on others like this was an insult.

"How can this be done...... "The coachman explained anxiously.

"Okay, I'm afraid that if I press you down, Mrs. Ben will make a fool of yourself." The people around couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, and the coachman also gave up his thoughts in her humorous words.

Along the way, the carriage walked very smoothly without any major bumps.

Soon arrived at the prefectural mansion, and there was a maid standing outside who was ready to receive her. After seeing Bai Jiujiu's carriage, he enthusiastically lifted the curtain for her.

Although they have just moved to Fenchuan County, they have heard a lot about Bai Jiujiu's reputation.

When the drought was severe, this lady tried her best to give porridge to the homeless people and saved many lives. At this time, the maid's eyes were shining, and she looked respectful, as if she had seen her idol.

Bai Jiujiu shook his head and smiled, only to find that there were a lot of people at today's banquet, most of them were local nobles, and the air was filled with the smell of fat powder on the girls' bodies, vaguely mixed with the smell of fine wine, which was a little intoxicating.

Everyone gathered together in twos and threes, not knowing what they were talking about, everyone had a smile on their faces, Bai Jiujiu couldn't help but pout, she didn't bother to mix in the hypocrisy and grievances between these people, and just found an unobtrusive place to sit down.

After everyone was seated, the host of today's banquet, Mrs. County Ling, appeared in a purple robe, the years have not left many traces on her face, and the purple dress makes her a little old-fashioned.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm glad you to be here today, and I'll give you a toast." As soon as Mrs. County's words fell, someone soon became flattering. Not to be outdone, others presented their gifts.

This new county order is said to be the most iron-faced and selfless, and some people who want to have an active relationship will hit their minds on the head of the county magistrate's wife, in which Bai Jiujiu saw Bai. Meng Ting's figure frowned with some disgust.

After a few glasses of wine, Mrs. County Ling seemed to be a little drunk, and saw her lips slightly opened, adding a bit of charm.

"What's the point of sitting here dryly, this flower is blooming so brightly, why don't we take a flower, someone beats the drum next to it, the drum stops, who is in the hand of this flower, who wants to show off his talent, how about it?"

Naturally, no one present would refute her face, and they all said that they had no opinion.

Soon, the game began, the drums beat one after another, and the speed in everyone's hands was also transmitted quickly.

"Click." The flowers stopped at white. Mengting's hand, today's white. Meng Ting was wearing a pure white dress, looking like a fairy, and the fiery red peony between her eyebrows made her a little more fireworks, attracting a lot of attention.

White. Meng Ting stepped forward a little shyly, "The little girl is not talented, and she is ugly today." ”

After that, the dress was fluttering and the dancing was beautiful, and when everyone was amazed, Bai Jiujiu pursed his lips disdainfully and turned his face away.

White. Meng Ting won bursts of applause when she got off the field, and she glanced at Bai Jiujiu a little defiantly.
