Chapter 72: The Birthday Banquet of the Taishi's Mansion

Yao Taishi's 80th birthday, Taishi's Mansion is very lively, even Emperor Jing'an is busy with court affairs, he will appreciate his face, because Yao Taishi is not only the father of General Zhenyuan, who has made great achievements, but also the teacher of Emperor Jing'an.

Eighty is considered an advanced age, and Taishi Yao's mind is a little confused, except for the person closest to him, he can't remember other people and things.

Even if Master Yao was confused, everyone still respected him.

"Fifth brother, we are new to the capital, and we are not familiar with Master Yao, why bother to join in the fun." Nangong Shuo clasped his hands in front of his chest and breathed impatiently.

"Even my father is going to come over in a while, can we avoid it?" Nangong Hao frowned and glared at him.

"I heard that Taishi Yao is His Majesty's teacher?" An Wanqing walked behind Nangong Hao and asked.

As the hostess of Haowang's Mansion, An Wanqing naturally wants to participate.

Nangong Hao nodded with his hands behind his back, "My father has always respected his teacher, and he naturally wants to participate in the eighty years of his teacher's longevity." ”

While the three of them were talking, they had already arrived at the door of Master Yao's mansion.

"The five princes and the five princesses, give a congratulatory gift to a white jade birthday star. The six princes gave a pair of red oak Buddha beads. The old butler stood at the door of the house and shouted.

The three of them stepped into the threshold, and many people had already come to Master Yao's Mansion, and the banquet chairs had been placed neatly in the order of official positions.

Not long after Nangong Hao first arrived in the capital, he was not familiar with all the brothers, so naturally he couldn't talk together, but fortunately, he and Nangong Shuo's banquet table were next to each other, and they were not lonely.

An Wanqing was even more bored, sitting on the banquet chair and casually looking at the other princes who were chatting happily.

Sitting at the head of the throne is naturally the crown prince, she has seen it in Zuixiang Building, and the princess next to her is dignified and elegant, chatting with the prince.

Sitting next to the prince is the three kings Nangong Yu, and the one who is at the same table as Nangong Yu is naturally 'her's eldest sister and the third princess Ye Biting.

It's just that An Wanqing feels strange that between the prince and the third prince, there should be a second prince?

Why didn't the banquet chair of the second prince be placed? Isn't the second prince dying early?

There is a banquet table between Nangong Yu and Nangong Hao, which is naturally reserved for the four princes, but the four princes are still in the future.

Sitting with Nangong Hao, it was naturally An Wanqing, next to Nangong Shuo, who was not yet married, and sitting at the end of the table was naturally Nangong Qi.

Nangong Qi has always disliked participating in this kind of banquet, but knowing that An Wanqing was coming, he came early.

I wanted to see An Wanqing a few more times, but his seat was too backward and not very convenient.

Sitting opposite were all ministers with heads and faces in the court.

When everyone heard that Emperor Jing'an was coming, they naturally had to do some superficial work, not to mention that on this occasion, the ministers could also ease the relationship between each other, after all, some ministers may be fighting in the court.

Nangong Qi was very bored alone, and Nangong Shuo next to him was completely air, so he simply stood up and ran to the seat of the fourth prince and sat down.

"Seventh brother, don't lose your manners." Nangong Yu glared at him and reminded.

Hearing the movement, everyone turned their heads to look at him.

"The fourth brother may not come, I am sitting alone in the back, bored to death, naturally come to find the third brother." Nangong Qi pouted.

"How do you know that the fourth brother is not coming? Go back to your seat and sit down. Nangong Yu said.

"The fourth brother is here, I won't have to get up again, besides, the fourth brother won't bother with Xiao Wang." Nangong Qi said disapprehantly.

Nangong Mo on the side smiled, "The fourth brother has always disliked the excitement, I'm afraid he won't come, so let the seventh brother sit." ”

Nangong Yu frowned and was silent, with his identity, he naturally couldn't refute the prince.

Nangong Shuo snorted coldly, and whispered to Nangong Hao: "Look, everyone is spoiling the seventh brother, the fifth brother can rest assured, the brothers are very affectionate." ”

Nangong Hao frowned, was silent, raised his wine glass and drank it all.

An Wanqing was a little puzzled, the tone of these six princes was full of jealousy, but what kind of attitude did these five princes have?

"Brother Prince Xie." Nangong Qi smiled at Nangong Mo.

"I know you've always liked to be lively, stay honest, and don't run anymore." As soon as Nangong Mo's words fell, he heard the voice of the old housekeeper outside the mansion.

"The four princes gave a longevity word and two pots of green bamboo."

An Wanqing frowned, a painting, two pots of green bamboo, this congratulatory gift is too simple, right?

These four princes are an elegant lord.

"The fourth brother is here." Nangong Qi sighed with a look of loss.

Nangong Yu laughed for a while, "The fourth brother has always loved you, you are good, why did you hear him coming, but you were unhappy?" ”

Nangong Qi grinned awkwardly, glanced at Nangong Yu, and sat back at his banquet table.

I saw Nangong Hui, who was dressed in a snow-white robe, with silver silk and white jade hanging around his waist, and holding a white feather fan, walked in leisurely.

An Wanqing's eyes widened and she was dumbfounded.

Is he the fourth prince? Mr. Chonghua?

"The fourth child is here, haha, the brothers were still talking about you just now." Nangong Mo said with a smile.

"Oh, what are you talking about?" Nangong Hui smiled gently.

"The seventh brother was naughty just now, and he wants to occupy your place." Nangong Mo said with a smile.

"Well, naughty indeed." Nangong Hui smiled disapprovingly, walked to the banquet table and sat down.

Turning his head to look at Nangong Yu who was sitting on the side, his eyes met An Wanqing's, and he was also shocked.

Obviously, he didn't expect that the woman who came to Hongwen Academy that day was actually the princess of his fifth brother.

Looking at each other, An Wanqing hurriedly looked away.

Nangong Hui looked away from An Wanqing, looked at Nangong Yu, and said with a smile: "The fifth brother is back, is it customary to live in the capital?" ”

If it is replaced by someone else, it will inevitably make people mistakenly think that the other party is deliberately ridiculing themselves. However, Nangong Hui's demeanor is calm, and his gentle and elegant temperament is like a gentleman, which makes people misunderstand.

"Fourth Brother Lao remembers, everything is fine." Nangong Hao's tone was cold and he spoke.

Nangong Shuo on the side snorted coldly in his heart.

An Wanqing glanced at Nangong Hui, who was sitting alone at a table, bit her lip, turned her head to look at Nangong Hao, and whispered, "The fourth prince is not married yet?" ”

Nangong Hao was stunned for a moment, obviously strange An Wanqing's question, "I heard that the fourth brother is tall and arrogant, and ordinary women can't get into his eyes." ”

"Oh." An Wanqing nodded.

He is Mr. Chonghua, who is rich in learning and five cars, and is talented and eight-digit, and Qinggao also has capital.

"Your Majesty has arrivedβ€”"

Wang Zhan, the chief eunuch, shouted.

Hearing this, everyone hurriedly stood up and knelt on the ground to salute.

Outside the Taishi Mansion, several teams of Imperial Jin troops quickly surrounded the Taishi Mansion to ensure the safety of Emperor Jing'an.

Emperor Jing'an wore a golden casual clothes, embroidered with a flying dragon on his chest, and strode into the threshold, followed by Wang Zhan.

Accompanying Emperor Jing'an into the Taishi Mansion, in addition to Wang Zhan, there was also Yan Qingyu in an artillery brocade shirt.

The red robe was like a fire, the red was dazzling, and it instantly attracted everyone's attention, and the only one who could wear a blood-red robe so movingly was Yan Qingyu.

Yan Qingyu, as the overseer of the Imperial Jin Army, is responsible for the safety of the entire imperial city and Emperor Jing'an, so he naturally has to follow Emperor Jing'an.
