Chapter 7: The Banquet
Lu Ningqi didn't expect Gu Yuesheng to kneel so quickly and recognize it so quickly. He frowned and said lightly: "Since you have apprenticed, this king naturally wants to give you a meeting gift." It's just that things happened suddenly......"
As he spoke, he took the piece of jade from his waist, and then handed it straight to Gu Yuesheng: "Although this jade is not priceless, it is also a priceless treasure!" Keep it safe! ”
Gu Yuesheng was stunned for a moment, and took it under everyone's gaze: "Master Xie!" ”
Lu Ningqi suddenly had a little headache, and he didn't expect why he suddenly accepted the apprentice as soon as his brain was hot...... This apprentice, I hope it won't cause him trouble in the future.
Gu Yuesheng got up from his apprenticeship, as if what had just happened had not happened, and obediently appeared beside the prime minister's wife, without saying a word.
"Alright, the banquet is about to start, let's go to the banquet together!" Lu Ningqi looked at the people in the courtyard and said lightly: "Today is the birthday of the concubine, and I hope to think twice before doing things." If you miss the concubine's banquet, this king will not spare it! ”
When the words fell, Lu Ningqi turned around and left directly.
And everyone saw that there was nothing good to watch, and they didn't dare to say anything at will, so they dispersed one by one.
Although Xia Xin is the daughter of the Marquis of Zhongyong, she has no name after all, and she doesn't dare to make trouble in the palace. What's more, Gu Yuesheng, a little girl, she always felt panicked, and always felt that this girl looked at her very strangely, as if she wanted to kill herself.
When the prime minister's wife saw that everyone in the courtyard had dispersed, she reached out to touch Gu Yuesheng's somewhat red and swollen cheeks. But she subconsciously avoided it.
"Sheng'er......" The hand of the prime minister's wife stopped in mid-air in embarrassment, Gu Yuesheng heard her somewhat sad voice, and then came back to her senses, saw her mother's sad expression, and hurriedly said: "Mother, Sheng'er went to think about the side matter just now." will ......"
The Prime Minister's wife sighed, put down her hand, and said, "Sheng'er, what happened just now really worries my mother, how could you do such a bold thing!" Let's not talk about the relationship between the Marquis of Zhongyong and your father in the court, if that Xia Xin sent someone to hurt you just now...... How is it good to also call mother? ”
Gu Yuesheng looked at the direction where Lu Ningqi was leaving, and said lightly: "It's okay, this is the palace, not the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion!" ”
When the prime minister's wife heard her say this, she shook her head helplessly: "What kind of character does the third prince have, who can be tactful, don't take it seriously that he can protect you." In this world, the only ones who can truly protect you are your parents and brothers. ”
Hearing the words of the Prime Minister's wife, Gu Yuesheng, who was originally calm, suddenly said loudly like a dragon that had been touched against the scales: "No! She shouted so loudly that it startled the prime minister's wife.
Gu Yuesheng red-eyed, looked at her, and said softly: "Mother, if one day, you find out that the person you trust the most has betrayed you a long time ago. Would you still think so? The only one who can really protect me is myself! ”
Gu Yuesheng didn't want to argue with her anymore, so she raised her legs and left. One day, she will let everyone see the ugly faces of those two people! I want to vomit nauseously!
The prime minister's wife was behind her, watching her resolute departure, and couldn't help but slump in place. Suddenly, she could feel what her husband was saying, and her sheng'er seemed to have really changed. It became unrecognizable to her......
When Gu Yuesheng arrived at the banquet hall, she found that everyone had already taken their seats, and she didn't want to affect others, so she found a corner and sat down. After a while, the Prime Minister's wife also arrived, and sat beside her, just like her.
The banquet hall was very lively, dancing and playing the piano, all of them were struggling to show everyone to everyone. I hope to be ...... tonight Hang a golden beetle son-in-law!
"Qi'er, I heard that you accepted an apprentice today?" After the dance, the princess sitting on the right seat looked down, chuckled and said, "I don't know who it is?" ”
Lu Ningqi stood up, saluted the princess respectfully, and then said, "If you return to the concubine, it is the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Yuesheng." With that, he turned his head to look down, searching.
Gu Yuesheng was slightly stunned, got up and looked at the princess: "Sheng'er has seen the princess." ”
The princess sitting on it saw a little girl dressed elegantly, and was a little surprised: "You are the apprentice that Qi'er accepted today?" "That look, it's like he expected that Lu Ningqi would not accept her as an apprentice.
Gu Yuesheng shut up and didn't say anything.
The princess nodded, then looked at Lu Ningqi and said softly: "Qi'er, since you are your apprentice, you should teach others well." Don't be too casual. ”
Lu Ningqi nodded, looked at Gu Yuesheng and smiled lightly: "Don't worry, the mother concubine, the child understands." ”
The princess nodded, she had never been at ease with her son. At this time, she frowned, looked at Gu Yuesheng and said, "You are the distinguished guests of the Prime Minister's Mansion, why are you sitting in the corner!" What the hell are these people doing! ”
Gu Yuesheng saw that she seemed to be angry, so she hurriedly got out of her seat, knelt down and said respectfully: "Princess Niangniang, don't be angry, my mother and I don't like to be too lively, and we don't want to disturb everyone, so we chose this place together." ”
The princess looked at her for a long time and nodded: "Since this is the case, then let's do it." You guys! As she spoke, she pointed to the dancing dancers and said, "Go down!" Tell them not to come up dancing and singing! Find some quieter performances! ”
"This ......" dancers look at each other and perform quietly? What kind of show was that? Isn't it better to celebrate your birthday as lively as possible?
"Since the princess wants to watch a quiet performance, these stupid minions won't. It's better to ...... Let the prime minister's wife, who likes to be quiet, perform one, right? At this moment, suddenly a discordant voice appeared.
It's Xia Xin!
Hearing this familiar voice, Gu Yuesheng couldn't help but tremble even if she didn't look at her. She endured it, took a deep breath, turned her head to look at Xia Xin, and said indifferently: "The daughter of the Marquis of Zhongyong, right?" ”
Xia Xin was named, and immediately subconsciously said: "It's ......"
Gu Yuesheng snorted coldly: "What qualifications do you have for my mother to perform!" Speaking of age, you are the same age as my mother, but in terms of size, your father has to come and call my father a brother. You haven't asked for peace when you see my mother, and you've been mean and difficult, don't you...... Is this the tutor of the Marquis of Zhongyong?! ”
Gu Yuesheng's words shocked Xia Xin speechless, and she sat there like a pins and needles, not knowing how to respond.
"Sheng'er......" The prime minister's wife just wanted to speak, but the princess above interrupted her: "Sheng'er is right! She really doesn't qualify! Seeing her smile, everyone knew that she was very satisfied with Gu Yuesheng's behavior!
