"Banquet?"

"Yes." Mulan nodded, and glanced up at the window.

Agarwood leaned alone on the pillar, tilting his head and not knowing which place he was staring at, his eyes glowing with a calm broken light. Sensing Mulan's gaze, she glanced back at Mulan, nodded slightly at her, and then looked away again.

Slightly relieved, Miao Lan let go of her mentality: "When His Royal Highness King Xiao came down, he was very scary, and the whole person was very serious, which was not at all different from the people he saw in the past, which simply scared the slave maid." She exaggerated the distance between her arms, pouted, and said, "That aura—it's almost saying that it's going to be so far away from him, and the hooves of the little dogs have to come up, and I don't know what she's looking to inquire about." ”

Looking at Mu Lan's disgusted eyes, Gu Liyi couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud: "But Miao Lan, don't you have to pretend to be in the same group as her, why do you look so disgusted....... Wouldn't that have to be seen by her sooner or later? ”

With a bit of smugness on her face, Mu Lan looked at Gu Liyi with a smile: "Miss Liyi, don't you know, I also dislike her very much in front of her, I guess she thinks that I am still thinking about the revenge of poisoning last time, and I don't dare to provoke me." As if remembering the other party's face, Miao Lan pursed her lips, "She believes me now, but I can't believe it, after telling her the news of the girl's invitation to Prince Song last time, she couldn't wait to tell Gu Changge, where is there any suspicion." ”

Speaking of this, a faint smile appeared on Gu Mingxiu's face. She lifted the teacup and poured a cup of tea, picked up the cup casually, and glanced at Mu Lan approvingly: "You have done a good job, and you have not shown your feet so far." ”

After receiving Gu Mingxiu's praise, Mu Langden was a little embarrassed, and quickly shook his head, and said with a smile: "It's all the girls who are smart, otherwise how can there be anything about me, the slave is already very happy to be able to help." ”

Glancing at her funny, Mo Zhu said softly: "Just your sweet mouth, but you feel sorry for our girl..... " She glanced at Gu Mingxiu, sighed slightly, and her beautiful face was a little shallow and angry, "I always think of ways to poison the girl, but I am not afraid of losing my life!" ”

Gu Mingxiu's expression remained unchanged, but Qiao Wu on the side let out an "oh", put down the teacup in his hand and said, "When you mention this, I think of it." He looked at Gu Mingxiu and nodded on the table, "There aren't many things in the package of medicinal powder you gave me yesterday, but it will teach you to have symptoms similar to wind and cold, and you will disappear after resting for two days." ”

"Gu Changge is actually kind this time? But it's that simple? Gu Liyi glanced at Qiao Wu suspiciously, turned her head to look at Gu Mingxiu in disbelief, and pouted, "Does she think that this is to accumulate virtue for herself?" ”

"Anxious girl." Qiao Wu glanced at her lazily, "I haven't finished talking yet, this medicine is indeed so simple, but mixed with the previous toxicity of the little girl-" Removing a little teasing from the bottom of his eyes, Qiao Wu's expression was a lot more serious, "Not only will it aggravate her condition, but it will even be fatal if she is not careful." ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent.

The medicine they were talking about was a secret letter from Gu Changge to Xiaozhu after Song Xuan invited someone to invite Gu Mingxiu to the door. The other party handed Xiaozhu a packet of medicine and asked her to give Gu Mingxiu a pill the day before Gu Mingxiu went to the appointment, and taught her that she couldn't go out and needed to be sick for two days. After the last Wushi San, the security in the courtyard has become stricter, and Xiao Zhu has been stared at more closely without knowing it, so naturally there is no chance of drugged, so it should be handed over to Mu Lan, who is "his own person".

"It's not a big deal." Gu Mingxiu drank the tea in the cup extremely plainly, and smiled lightly, "It's always good for her to have this heart, but it has nothing to do with us." After a few days of banquets, if Gu Changge wants to show his limelight again, let's ignore it. ”

Mu Lan nodded: "Girl, when Your Highness comes today...... It seems that something big is about to happen, so don't we worry? ”

"Don't worry." Gu Mingxiu said lightly, "Gu Changge doesn't have that much ability to teach his grandfather to be vigilant with King Xiao, since it is for the banquet, he naturally has some contact with the prince of the Song Kingdom." After a moment of silence, Gu Mingxiu said, "Miao Lan, you stay in the mansion with Lingqiao, and Mozhu and Agarwood go with us." ”

Mu Lan bowed: "Yes! The slave and maid must take good care of the hoof. ”

.........................

On the day of the feast, it was held in a painting boat on the night of the full moon on the fifteenth month.

The painting boat is far away from the shore of the Xinghe Lake, the red candles are hung high, the lights are bright, standing on the shore and looking at it, I only feel that the painting boat is gorgeous, attracting people's attention. The people passing by stopped by the lake, staring at the lanterns on the Jinghe River outside the imperial city, and smelling the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras, which was also very lively.

There are boats on the left and right slowly sailing towards the painting boat, and that is the powerful people of the DPRK and China who came to the banquet.

Xu was explaining to An Ting the things that needed attention, looking at her looking left and right, he couldn't help but shake his head funny: "You, you, listen to me well." This is not a small banquet in Jingzhou, if you cause any trouble, even your grandfather may not be able to protect you. ”

"In my opinion, Tingting should be locked up in the General's Mansion." An Ling interjected with a smile, "Take a look, it's obviously older than the little cousin, but it's not as calm as the little cousin, and I don't know who is the sister and who is the sister." ”

Gu Liyi's two sisters followed behind General An, and when they heard An Ling's words, Gu Liyi smiled and turned his head and said, "Second cousin, I won't tell you, I'm also very nervous." ”

"But little cousin, you grew up in Yangzhou, shouldn't you have attended such a banquet many times?"

"In the past, when I followed the second sister and them, I was talking and laughing at them left and right, but I didn't recognize anyone, and I was very uncomfortable, where do I remember what to remember? Every time I come, I can't wait to finish it quickly, and go home early. ”

"Haha, I know that you are also a restless master, I'm afraid that you may be damaged by Tingting. Cousin Xiu'er, don't you be led crooked by Tingting, there are only a bunch left in our house, nothing at all-what are you staring at me?? ”

Gu Mingxiu turned his head and smiled slightly: "Actually, I don't like these banquets very much. ”

An Yan glanced at her: "Why." ”

"True or false, the banquet is real, but the people who go to the banquet may not be sincere." Gu Mingxiu lowered his eyes, his face was gentle, and he hooked a faint smile, "And the more lively the place, the easier it is to create chaos and evolve into a dangerous place." ”

General An and the others were in front, and after hearing Gu Mingxiu's words, they couldn't help but look back at the quiet little girl. General An groaned slightly, paused at the place where the male and female dependents were separated, and lowered his voice slightly and admonished: "Xiu'er, be careful of people after the banquet starts, don't be separated from your mother and them." ”

General An's tone was very serious, but he pressed something.

Gu Mingxiu smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Grandfather, I know, it's just... Maybe someone is going to call out the thief to catch the thief. ”

Hearing this, General An paused, then frowned and said, "Pay more attention." ”

After speaking, he raised his head and glanced at An Li, and a look immediately pulled back the tacit understanding that An Li had been estranged from for many years. She was slightly stunned, then quickly understood, quietly retracted her attention, and nodded towards General An.

"Why don't I think it's right....." An Ting was a little confused, pulled Gu Liyi over and muttered quietly, "Listen to what my grandfather means, I feel like I'm going to come out-"

"Tingting." Xu Shi gently called An Ting, stopped his words, and touched her head, "If you say too much, you will lose, don't talk nonsense here." After that, she looked at a few juniors and said softly, "Let's go, your grandfather and they will go to meet Your Majesty first, and we will also be seated." ”

There were many people at the women's table early, either sitting to talk and laugh, or walking around the painting boat at will.

Xu took them in, and many people came to talk to them, but they didn't care at all whether they knew them or not, and they were very familiar when they asked about their identities.

An Ting didn't want to listen to them, so he pulled Gu Mingxiu and Gu Liyi out of the crowd and hid in a small corner.

"Is this the place for small talk?" An Ting's face did not hide her disappointment, she pursed her lips and sighed a little unwillingly, "I thought there would be a competition in the book." ”

"This is a banquet for the crown prince of the Song Kingdom, where will there be those you talked about." Gu Mingxiu replied softly, "I'm afraid there is only some song and dance today, but the song and dance in Yangzhou is also a little interesting, you have never seen it before, and you may not feel tired of taking a look at it today." ”

"I don't want to welcome that liar at all, hmph, what's so good about singing and dancing, I'd rather watch people fight." An Ting sighed in disappointment, looked at the surrounding situation, and looked left and right, "I don't know if Qingqing is here, this kind of place is the most interesting to chat with her, and it's not fun to talk to you at all." ”

Gu Mingxiu laughed lightly: "Although Qingqing has a cold personality, she also grew up in Yangzhou, and she is the daughter of the governor, she can also deal with this kind of occasion, don't say that she has to watch singing and dancing here, even if she sits for several hours, it is not difficult for her." ”

"Still need to sit that long?!" An Ting glanced at Gu Mingxiu in disbelief, only to feel that he was drunk cleanly with curiosity, and couldn't help waving his hand weakly, and said depressedly, "I might as well stay in the mansion with Ah Wei and feel more comfortable..."

After muttering a short sentence, An Ting suddenly raised his head again, blinked his eyes and stared at Gu Mingxiu mysteriously: "By the way, Xiu'er, what kind of dumb riddle were you playing with your grandfather?" I couldn't understand a word. ”

"It's already dark." Gu Mingxiu glanced up at the distant riverbank, and when he saw the lights flickering, he smiled slightly, "Some people naturally can't sit still, but they don't know about this kind of occasion..... Who is the fisherman? ”

She said it lightly, but she taught Agarwood and Mo Zhu to look at each other, and there was a little worry in their eyes.

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
