Chapter 726: Misplaced
Suzaku Street, a nearly 100-meter-wide middle road, is endless. The Chunshan Banquet was arranged under the street trees, which did not hinder the daily traffic of the carriages and horses, but in order to divert traffic and prevent the carriages and horses from hitting the people gathered from all directions, every 20 meters, the government government arranged for the officials to control the speed of the carriages and horses.
Even for this one of the most special days of the year in Chang'an City, all the city gates have evacuated the flow of people entering the city, and the carriages and horses that are not official of the imperial court and have official letters have been postponed from entering the city to relieve the pressure on Suzaku Street.
Even so, the 600 seats of the Chunshan Banquet have been filled, ready to receive five rounds of flowing water seats. Most of them were ragged victims, as well as local civilians in Chang'an. Even if no expensive ingredients are used, the dishes are not perfunctory. Mutton soup, gourd chicken, stewed carp, eat those who usually don't have the opportunity to step into Rongyifang, it's too late to have any words, lest they can't grab food.
There are also people who secretly carry food into their arms, but they don't need to be controlled by the officials, and those who wait for the position will definitely shout loudly, so there is no chaos in supervising each other.
Ming Yi looked at the curtain all the way, feeling a little desolate in his heart, under the war, these displaced people, before losing their homes, may be like her, small businessmen, or Bo has a land, maybe they have studied, maybe they also have great ambitions, but in the trend of the times, they have to leave their hometowns, leave all their past, and abandon all their dignity in the face of hunger and hardship.
Ming Yi glanced at Wu Qianping and found that he didn't squint, as if he didn't care about the outside world. She lowered the curtain and grabbed Wu Qianping's hand tightly, the heat was transmitted to him from the palm of his hand, he felt it, and shook it back.
She understood Wu Qianping's thoughts at this moment, he was afraid, afraid of seeing such a scene, afraid of evoking the memories of sending people under the fence in his childhood. His fear of poverty was much deeper than Mingyi thought.
The carriage stopped, Wu Qianping helped Ming Yi get out of the car, and stood at the head of the Spring Banquet, where there were some donation boxes for the donors present to donate.
The first thing Ming Yi saw when she got out of the car was a group of people in official uniforms, and the only one she knew was Lord Jing Zhaoyin who was surrounded in the middle, Wei Ao. Wei Ao also seemed to see her from afar, his eyes were stunned, and his smile remained unchanged.
Wu Qianping hugged Ming Yi, glanced at her, saw her smiling like a flower, nodded, and walked towards the group of people.
Wu Qianping greeted and introduced to Ming Yi one by one, starting from Wei Ao, as well as those officials of the six ministries. The highest is only a waiter, on the same level as Wu Qian. There are also some idle military attachΓ©s and idle princes. Ming Yi only wore a smile and nodded frequently. She is no longer the Ming lady who took the lead, and now she is the wife of Wu Shilang, and she knows how to be well-behaved.
Wei Ao glanced at her: "Qianping is really a good eye, after the Wei lady from a famous family, she married the most capable Ming lady in Chang'an City, and she envied others." β
Ming Yi always felt that Wei Ao had something to say, and he carried a gun and a stick to her, but he still smiled sweetly, leaned on Wu Qianping's side, and remained silent. At this time, there is no need for her to show anything, this is a man's business.
Wu Qianping said with a smile: "I have admired Mingyi for a long time, but it's a pity that she has always refused to nod her head and marry, and I have no shame to stalk." It wasn't until recently, when I took over from Jing Zhaoyin, that I had the opportunity to be promoted to a waiter, that I had the confidence to ask for marriage again, and finally asked for the consent of the beauty. Speaking of which, adults can be regarded as half of our matchmakers. β
Ming Yi really convinced Wu Qianping's mouth, and flattered her so much that he didn't say anything, and he also brushed Wei Ao again. Although he knew that it was his routine, Ming Yi still felt sweet in his heart, and he exalted himself, so no one dared to look down on her. What's more, he didn't say a word about Wei Shouyan in and out of his words, I'm afraid that he is really going to break with the Wei family.
Wei Ao probably also tasted this meaning, frowned slightly, and patted Wu Qianping's arm: "Good vision, good vision." β
Mingyi doesn't know if his good vision is to praise Wu Qianping for himself, or Wu Qianping's team in the officialdom, but she really doesn't have to worry about this, Wu Qianping understands, it's okay.
Wu Qianping and his colleagues continued to greet him, and Mingyi said hello to him and walked away two steps to take a look.
The mansion of the Li Mansion, which is closest to Chunshanxi, is full of people coming and going, all of them are running parties with dishes and maids holding dishes, trotting one by one, lest they be delayed. Mingyi cautiously stepped inside, lest he be bumped into.
In the front yard of the Li Mansion, the one who commanded Ruoding in the middle was Yinniang, who was wearing a Hu suit that was easy to enter and exit, pointing out the order of cooking in the kitchen, neatly and neatly. Ming Yi felt a little trance, as if he saw his own shadow.
She didn't want to get close, and she didn't want to greet Yinniang. Walked out silently.
It doesn't feel good. The Yinniang she saw was not only like her previous self, but also like Mingyi in modern times. Mingyi has operated hundreds of large and small public relations activities, press conferences, customer receptions, roadshows, and today's Spring Banquet, all of which are about coordinating and managing the work of all parties, connecting various departments, and supervising the implementation. At that time, Mingyi also stood behind the scenes, shuttling back and forth, with a strong voice and a neat voice.
She had a strange feeling, as if her life had been stolen, and she had somehow become the wife of an official family, and she had the illusion of being left idle.
No, she must see Shen Tu and Chu Niangzi as soon as possible, and she must restore everything that has been misplaced to normal.
Mingyi was thinking about it, and heard someone call her: "Mingyi, I haven't seen you for a long time." β
Looking at it, it turned out to be the princess Wanshou she was still thinking about the day before, accompanied by two maids, followed by Zheng Hao, who was full of impatience. Zheng Hao also looked at her, a little surprised, and lowered his eyebrows again, changing a kind of loss.
People, the most afraid is to meet an insider when they feel unbearable.
Zheng Hao's biggest pain was that he was unwilling to be a colt, and Ming Yi, through Xia Huanfeng, fully understood his difficulties and his resentment. At this moment, let Ming Yi see the pot-bellied princess again, Zheng Hao is afraid that he will be a little embarrassed, and he doesn't want to face it, for fear that Ming Yi will laugh in his heart for giving in to the powerful and betraying his original intention.
Ming Yi actually didn't care about this poor colt, her mind was on Princess Wanshou, she was a lot rounder, her belly had already been revealed, and it seemed to be bigger than Hong Yi's.
Ming Yi asked a few questions about the recent situation, and the princess replied very perfunctorily, as if she didn't want to say more. Ming Yi also understands that there is no reason for Jin Zhi Yuye to complain on the street.
The princess was more concerned about her affairs: "I sent someone to Chengwei Pavilion to look for you a while ago, and I heard that you followed Wu Qianping to Yizhou and left all the shops in Chang'an, which really scared me." β
Ming Yi was puzzled: "What? How can you scare the princess? β
The princess covered her mouth and smiled, and said in a low voice: "I know that this Lord Wu is outstanding in appearance and rare in talent, Mingyi, you should love him, but I think that he already has a wife, and I am afraid that Mingyi Fang's heart will be wrong." Now seeing that he has brought you to the Chunshan Banquet in such a big battle, you know that you have waited for Mingyi. β
Ming Yi didn't know how to talk about it, so he had to smile and pretend to be shy.
