Xiangmanlou, the first tavern in Qijing, the reputation is resounding all over the world, the dishes are excellent, the price is expensive, and the merchants and nobles who have silver taels like to eat here.

However, no matter how famous it is, there is one thing that should be the same as any other tavern.

There should be a guy smiling at the gate, and now ......

On the left and right, there is a row of soldiers in armor, with swords at their waists, their eyes looking straight ahead, not smiling solemnly.

They are countrymen, at most, they have seen servants, but they have never seen soldiers, but now there are so many!

For a while, Zhao Lingmei was so frightened that she didn't dare to get out of the car, her eyes stared, and she pulled up the curtain and poked out.

Until he handed her a palm behind his back and gently pushed her.

"Mother, don't be afraid, Sister Shu's husband-in-law used to be a country boy, and now he is an official in the court."

She didn't say anything about her official position, but she was afraid that if she did, her mother wouldn't be able to let go.

Because of the Battle of Qi and Zhou six years ago, which spread to the south of the Yangtze River and experienced war, can they not be afraid of the soldiers who are serious when they see them?

Just after getting out of the car, some of the sisters and aunts who were close to them heard it and immediately wrote down the main points.

I used to be a country boy, but now I'm not, I'm an official. Looking at the platoon of soldiers again, they understood.

"It turns out that the future brother-in-law is a military general."

Qin Miao said casually, and the envy and awe that surged in her eyes before disappeared.

She often heard people say that Daqi has always respected etiquette and governed the country with literature, and has never paid much attention to military affairs.

Compared with the literati, the military generals are not high, and their status is also low, and they recruited strong men to enlist in the army last year, but not many people were willing to be arrested to make up the numbers!

Only those who are really not good at family background, have to go in for the sake of enlisting in the army.

It seems that this brother-in-law's family background is really not good, and she still thinks that Sister Shu is so well married!

Of course, Qin Miao will control herself, she thinks about these in her heart, and she will never dare to say it.

But what she said just now was enough to make everyone think the same.

They are far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and they only know the rules of the great Qi governance, how the new emperor ascended the throne, and what the situation between the DPRK and China is.

So, the minds of these people are far from before, except for ......

Zhao Lingmei was still a little afraid, her voice was lower, the more nervous she was, the more she loved to talk, and kept muttering.

"The dishes in the fragrant building must be delicious, but, Shu Yatou's husband, are you here today? Want to share a table with us? ”

The one who can bring so many soldiers must be the leader, majestic and strong.

"It's definitely not a small story! Yanran, when we meet, how can I salute him, what do I call him, lord, official? ”

Zhao Lingmei's nervousness was in stark contrast to several other concubines, but those people didn't speak.

A few juniors looked at her casually, especially Qin Miao, and almost laughed.

Don't be so nervous, I'm really not a big guy.

Military general, the status is very low.

"Sister Yanran, I saw Sister Shu going inside, should we follow?"

At this time, Qin Zhizhi walked over with her mother, her eyes full of smiles.

Zhao Lingmei looked at the calm appearance of the second concubine, her heart was like being pricked by a needle, her sister-in-law was born like her, everyone was so indifferent, what was she panicking about?

In comparison, it seems that she is very unproductive.

So, she immediately calmed down and grabbed the second concubine's hand, "Sister-in-law, let's have a table then." ”

"Third aunt, the seat must have been arranged in advance. I guess, you aunts are all sitting together. ”

Qin Zhizhi replied with a smile, and then took the initiative to hold Qin Yanran's hand and lit the door that Qin Yunshu entered, "Let's go?" ”

There are a total of eight gates in the east and west of the Xiangmanlou, all of which are open at this time, and the soldiers stand on both sides to maintain order.

After the Qin family got out of the car, they went in groups in order.

When I got inside, the guys greeted him with a smile, and there were four tables in the hall on the first floor and three tables in the wing room on the second floor.

There are seven tables in total, and even children have seats.

Seeing the guy with a smile on his face, Zhao Lingmei breathed a sigh of relief.

The wing rooms are arranged for the elders, and the aunts are all seated on the second floor, and the children and peers are on the first floor.

In this way, Zhao Lingmei was separated from Qin Yanran, her daughter was not by her side, she was a little cramped, for fear that there would be a few more soldiers standing above.

"Sister Yanran, isn't your seat next to Sister Shu?"

Qin Zhizhi looked at the aunts who went upstairs in twos and threes, and then looked at Qin Yanran, who was about to sit down on the side.

"Either way, I can't be placed upstairs."

The elders are orderly, and the elders are the first, how can she sit in the wing room as a junior?

Secondly, Sister Shu is married, she is the top priority, Dingbei Hou must also be upstairs, she is sitting next to Sister Shu, what are you talking like?

Qin Zhizhi stared intently, and after a moment, he closed his gaze, "It's okay, it's not with the elders, there is no restraint." ”

The voice was full of laughter, and then she walked towards Qin Yanran's table.

But as soon as I walked a few steps, I heard the sound of gasps, followed by boos.

Qin Zhizhi didn't know why, only to see everyone looking at the gate, more than a dozen children with wide eyes and curiosity, and her sisters, their eyes lit up, as if they had found something great.

So, she was also curious and immediately followed.

A straight man in a light blue shirt came into view, with a long and jade body, his clothes were blowing with the breeze, and his body was full of light.

The soldiers who had stood solemnly before were bowing and saluting, very respectfully.

After a few words, the man turned and walked forward.

The pace is steady, and the face is in everyone's sight.

"What a handsome man! In particular, those eyes suck people straight through. ”

I don't know which sister muttered something in a low voice, making people want to echo and nod.

They have never seen such a handsome man in Jiangnan!

The sword eyebrows are flying, the eyes are condensed, the outline is clear, the aura is powerful, which makes people awe-inspiring, and they dare not approach without permission.

Qin Zhizhi's breathing seemed to be stagnant, his eyes fixed on the man, unable to move.

And Qin Miao, her lips suddenly tightened, the starry light in her eyes gradually dissipated, and her brain spun rapidly, desperately thinking about who this person would be?

"Master Hou, all the people have arrived."

The shopkeeper of Xiangmanlou stepped forward, smiling with respect.

Xiao Jinyan nodded, his eyes swept over everyone very quickly, they were all children and juniors, he needed to meet the elders of the Qin family as soon as possible to show his respect.

So, he didn't stop and walked straight to the second floor.

The people below still looked at his back, listening to the steady footsteps gradually moving away.

Hearing the three words Marquis of Dingbei, Qin Miao breathed a sigh of relief, Sister Shu's husband is a military general, and this man has a knighthood.

Daqi doesn't seem to have a different surname, it turns out that he is a child of the royal family, no wonder his aura is so strong.

While breathing a sigh of relief, her eyes lit up again, she looked so good-looking, if she was lucky enough to be close to him, she would be accepted into the house by him......

That's Hou Ye! It's even better than Sister Shu's husband!

Qin Miao's mind fluttered, her eyes became more and more bright, and she was even thinking about how to inquire about this person's identity, where is the mansion in Qijing?
