Cheng Mo suddenly remembered what Nu Jiao said in Mantingfang that day, it seems that King Liang has been to Mantingfang.

He crossed his hands and saluted, and said very respectfully: "Your Highness, there have been different rumors in Chang'an City over the years, two years ago it was said that I bought a little prostitute who had taken a fancy to more than half a step in singing, and bought the entire brothel for a lot of money, and later said that I had received three outer rooms outside the house, all of which were prostitutes from Pingkangfang, and gave birth to a child. ”

He laughed self-deprecatingly as he spoke: "They even know the child's name, and it seems to be the same thing, I don't even know it myself, but now it's good, and I said that the lady recommended the pillow seat, I heard a lot, so I just smiled." ”

These words made King Liang and those nobles couldn't help laughing, and the haze on King Liang's face also disappeared, and he shook his head: "You are used to wandering, and you can't complain about others gossiping about you." ”

He waved his hand: "That's it, you're afraid that you're uncomfortable here, let's eat and drink with them." ”

Cheng Mo retreated and returned to his seat.

Chang Yun watched him come back, and hurriedly probed over: "Wulang, what did King Liang say to you?" I heard him seem to be asking about Nian Jiao, could it be that he was still thinking about it......"

Cheng Mo swept over with a look, he felt that he had lost his voice, and sat back with a bitter face, could it be that he sat here and didn't speak from beginning to end?

Fortunately, the guests were soon gathered, except for the prince who did not come, and ordered someone to send a heavy gift to the palace to congratulate him, King Yu, King Liang and all the clans and nobles were all there.

Princess Lu of Yingchuan took the hand of Li Qing, the eldest grandson of the emperor, followed by a young lady, walked out with her maidservant, smiled and greeted King Liang and King Yu, and then said to everyone at the table: "Thank you." ”

Although few people really put such a pair of mother and son in their eyes, the number of etiquette is still indispensable, and they bow down together: "Princess, Your Royal Highness." ”

There were people here who were looking at the figure behind Lu Shi in a daze, Cheng Yu couldn't believe his eyes, and looked straight at the delicate shadow, how could she be here?

The Lu family invited them to get up, let Li Qing sit down in the east seat, and pulled Xiao Rongyue forward with a smile and said to the female dependents: "This is my sister-in-law Xiao Shi." ”

The ladies and ladies were all suspicious in their hearts, they had never heard that Princess Yingchuan had any righteous sisters, this Xiao lady looked at her young age, and she didn't know what her identity was, but at the moment, it was not easy to show it at all, and they all smiled and greeted Xiao Rongyue.

Xiao Rongyue didn't hide it, and said with a chuckle: "My mother's family is the Xiao family in Changzhou, Jiangning, and now she has a female household and runs a few shops in Chang'an City. ”

It's actually a merchant girl? And set up a female household?

Those ladies were stunned, but the most surprised was the Duchess of Weiguo, Chen, she knew who the Xiao lady in front of her was, and it was actually the Xiao lady who saved Cheng Yu, but how could she ......

The Lu family could see their surprise and disdain, and their expressions suddenly became a little solemn: "Mrs. Xiao has a great favor to me, I recognize her as a righteous sister in the hope of being able to repay a few points, and tomorrow I will enter the palace to show Your Majesty, and recognize this family seriously." ”

Lu Shi's words made those people speechless, and they could only talk to Lu Shi and Xiao Rongyue with smiles.

Xiao Rongyue replied with a smile, but turned her head to look at Zhao Wan'er and Pang Zi, and looked at her after a few glances before turning her head with an ordinary expression.

Zhao Wan'er also looked at this Xiao lady carefully several times, and for some reason she always felt familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, but how could she have a relationship with such a merchant girl, and she could only guess when she was puzzled, and she made up her mind to let people investigate when she returned home.

Cheng Yu on the opposite side never took his eyes off Xiao Rongyue, and he didn't even come back to his senses when Cheng Mu next to him talked, and he said in a daze for a while: "What did you say?" ”

Cheng Mu looked at him in surprise, and then asked again: "I heard that the Ministry of War received a report that there was another change in Tibet, and it repeatedly invaded several vassal states in Qiuci and Khotan, I don't know if I can set a countermeasure?" ”

Cheng Yu regained his composure and frowned: "Tomorrow morning, the court will hold a meeting for His Majesty's court." ”

Cheng Mu lowered his voice: "Then the main general this time ......"

Cheng Yu also knew the meaning of his words, if His Majesty was really determined to send troops, then the candidates for the main general would naturally be chosen among these families, except for Wei Guo Gong Cheng Yan and Huainan Hou Cheng Feng, that is, the loyal military general An Changzhi and the Xuanwei general Min Lu, and the qualifications of others were not enough to serve as the main general.

These Zhongwei Guogong and Huainan Marquis are the prince's people, An Changzhi is the person of King Yu, but Min Lu is the person of King Liang, but if he is the main general, he is bound to hand over most of the military power in the northwest to him, and after pacifying the rebellion, he will build the capital to protect the palace, so such a key road hub in the northwest will all fall into the hands of a family.

Among the three, no one will give up easily.

Cheng Yu looked at King Yu and King Liang who were raising their glasses at the banquet, and sighed in his heart, the matter of the palace banquet has not subsided, and this battle is afraid that there will be an undercurrent again.

Cheng Mo was surprised by Xiao Rongyue's appearance, he was not as straightforward as Cheng Yu, he just glanced at the people on the west seat a few times when he drank it with a wine cup, and raised his eyebrows, this Xiao is really not an ordinary person, obviously just a merchant girl, married to Xie Yuanlang of Jiangning Mansion, but he thought of a way to ask for righteousness, and he came to Chang'an with his own marriage, but he had a relationship with Princess Yingchuan, and became the righteous sister of the Lu family.

If Xiao Shi didn't have a plan, he would never believe it, but what did she have to do? Get involved in this whirlpool, just for the sake of glory and wealth?

But he didn't feel like it.

Chang Yun kept his mouth closed and paid attention to him, and when he saw him looking at the opposite seat, he suddenly became interested, and Gu had to promise to be able to talk more, and opened his mouth with a grin: "Goro, shouldn't you fancy which lady?" Why do you keep looking over there? ”

"If you say it, I will help you think of ideas, and I will definitely teach you to make your wishes come true!" Chang Yun patted his chest with a big bag, "There is no family affair in the mansions of Chang'an City that I can't get along." ”

looks like a gossip and stinky fart.

Cheng Moli ignored him, poured himself a glass of wine, and slowly listened to the Lang Jun next to him.

Chang Yun saw that he didn't answer, blinked, and leaned over a little more: "Gorou, you won't fancy not the lady, but the lady, this can't be done......"

He didn't finish half a sentence, he was already blocked by Cheng Mo's murderous gaze, and he was so frightened that a spirit retracted his neck, but the half sentence couldn't help but whisper out: "It's all a few in Chang'an City, you can't look up and look down, your idea of beating someone's daughter-in-law is not good......"

Cheng Mo really regretted it now, he should have beaten him up and locked him in the thatched house when he entered the door, it was better than him talking nonsense here.
