Chapter 183: Kyushu Qing Banquet

Kyushu Qingyan is the largest and most noble place in the back garden, and it is not usually open. It will only be opened when a banquet is needed during the New Year's holidays.

Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, although no foreign ministers are invited, but it is also a rare and prosperous life in the royal palace. As early as a month ago, the people started tidying up and cleaning, just for tonight's use.

Shen Xiu packed up and changed clothes, although the family banquet did not need to be dressed, but the dress at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet was still exquisite.

Especially today, you can't wear red on festive days. There was another assassination during the sacrifice, and the dinner party sang a big drama, and onlookers should also be cautious.

"Concubine Side, the soft sedan has been prepared." Linlang stepped forward and said.

She had already packed up, and she didn't dare to wear any extra clothes in her standard clothes.

Eventful, low-key.

"No need, it's close, let's go." Shen Xiu said.

With that, Shen Xiu got up and walked out, and Linlang hurriedly followed.

Mr. Wang was already waiting outside, and when he saw Shen Xiu coming out, he hurriedly greeted him.

"I've seen the side concubine." Mr. Wang saluted.

Shen Xiu nodded and said, "I'm going to bother Manager Wang to pay more attention today." ”

Although Linlang is clever, she is just a hairy girl. If she is not affected at the Kyushu Qing banquet, it is fine, but if it is really affected, it will definitely be handled by Manager Wang.

"Please rest assured." Mr. Wang said.

Shen Xiu sighed lightly, and said to himself a little: "What an eventful season." ”

Cheng Yuanniang was half dead, and was assassinated when she sacrificed to the Taimiao, and this year was really lively.

"Side concubine...... "Manager Wang considered the wording, "don't worry too much." ”

Shen Xiu's reaction after the assassination surprised him very much. Surprisingly calm, unexpectedly composed.

Following such a master should be able to turn him over.

He'd been around for so many years, he really didn't want to go over like this for the rest of his life.

"Mr. Wang wants to say, it's useless for me to worry." Shen Xiu said, walking out slowly.

Mr. Wang followed behind him and said carefully: "The old slave means ......"

"I understand what Mr. Wang means, and I don't mean to blame." Shen Xiu said, "I am also very fortunate to have the help of adults. ”

Manager Wang suddenly became happy when he heard this, and said, "The side concubine said this, and the old slave was tormented. ”

Although the eunuchs in the palace look very high-end, there are grades and the like. But that can be mixed up, and there are many eunuchs who rot and die in the palace every year.

The descendants of the high-ranking families can still redeem themselves and leave, but the eunuchs are inseparable from the palace.

It is very important to follow the master, and he was unlucky in the first half of his life. Now the treasure of the second half of his life is all bet on Shen Xiu, and whether he can turn over depends on this time.

Now that Shen Xiu is willing to believe in him, the probability of him turning over is greater.

"Adults don't have to be like this, I'm new to the city, and I can't miss out on the reminders of adults." Shen Xiu said.

Han Xiao arranged such a chief eunuch for him, which was indeed useful.

Between small talks, the Kyushu Qingyan has arrived.

Although the back garden is very large, Pinghu Qiuyue is very close to Kyushu Qingyan, and a main road is 100 steps to the west.

"Concubine Shen really came early."

Suddenly, I saw Wei Ling coming in a soft sedan chair, and Wei said that he was following in a soft sedan chair.

Shen Xiu stopped, looked at Wei Ling with a smile, and said, "I'm close, so naturally I came early, but Concubine Wei and Mrs. Wei came early." ”

As he spoke, Shen Xiu glanced at Wei Yu. I saw that although his expression was still a little flustered, his face was powdered, at least he looked dignified and generous. smiled and said: "I really envy the two of you, sisterhood is deep." ”

has just experienced assassination, with the character shown by Wei Yu, to be so calm, it should be Wei Ling to appease her.

Although they are sisters born of one father, the internal fighting is much more fierce. At such a critical moment, it is really rare that Wei Ling can still remember to appease this sister-in-law.

"I envy Concubine Shen, who has such a good brother." Wei Ling said, with a slight sour tone in her tone.

She is indeed very envious, women are based in the world, and they always rely on men.

Fathers and brothers, husbands, sons, as long as there is one who can be relied on, a woman's life will be better.

If she had a brother who loved her, she wouldn't come to the palace to find a future. Everyone wants to be like a delicate flower, raised in a greenhouse, but there is no greenhouse for her to survive.

"Yes, my brother treats me well." Shen Xiu said, but her mood was full of emotion.

Everyone has something to ask for, and everyone has a dissatisfaction.

Wei Ling envied her, and she also envied Wei Ling, at least she didn't go through too much life and death.

The three of them spoke at the door, and Su Huaiyu came out when he heard the news, and said respectfully: "I've seen Concubine Shen, Concubine Wei, and Mrs. Wei." ”

"It turned out to be a female officer Su." Wei Ling said with a smile.

Shen Xiu smiled, but was still polite and detached. It was as if she had never heard what Su Huaiyu said to her by the car window.

"The main hall is still being cleaned up, please go to the side hall to rest first." Su Huaiyu said, "The wind is cold and the dew is heavy, and it is not good to catch a cold." ”

Wei Ling smiled and said, "What Lady Su said is that it is going to snow again, it is really cold this day." ”

Saying that, Wei Ling walked forward, Wei Yu was a little overwhelmed, but he also hurriedly followed.

Two little eunuchs stepped forward and led the three of them into the Kyushu Qing Banquet.

As the largest building in the back garden, the area of Kyushu Qingyan is twice as large as that of Qichun Garden. And unlike the Qichun Garden, which is a garden, the architecture of the Kyushu Qingyan is full of style, and there are few flowers and plants.

"Please sit down for a while." The little eunuch led Shen Xiu into the matching hall.

Although it was a side hall to rest, he went to two side halls and completely isolated the three of them.

If you are worried about causing disputes, then you can live separately and save trouble.

Shen Xiu looked at the furnishings in the house, although it was a temporary resting hall, it was still spotless, and the array was also dignified and atmospheric.

"The prince and the princess usually come over when the chief is the chief, so the side concubine will rest first." Mr. Wang whispered.

A large banquet like this is not a banquet, but a sit-down when you come. It is necessary to wait for the Lord to come and everyone to say goodbye, so that they can sit down together.

And side concubines like Shen Xiu must come early and wait for the princess and princess. That's why the hall will be prepared, just for the second-class master to rest temporarily.

"Hmm." Shen Xiu responded and sat down on the chair.

After a while, the little eunuch brought refreshments, all of which were very exquisite.

Shen Xiu glanced at it, but didn't move. Even if she is thirsty, she won't drink, and the more important the occasion, the more things can't be eaten indiscriminately.

The Chinese New Year's Eve banquet is a big event, and because it is a big event, there are many people. In case someone puts something in the food, not to mention poisoning her, but just putting some catharsis or sweat medicine to make her ugly at the table, it is enough for her to drink a pot.

This is also the reason why she doesn't want to marry into the prince, thinking too much and hurting too much.

"Speaking of which, Lady Su is the head of the back garden, so is today's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet also arranged by her?" Shen Xiu asked suddenly.

When he was at the door, Su Huaiyu could greet him immediately, and he should have heard the little eunuch's report.

The backyard of the prince is not peaceful, in case the master tears it up at the door, the little eunuch is afraid that something will happen and report to Su Huaiyu.

Su Huaiyu invited the three of them under the pretext of entering, and arranged the matching hall separately, and did not want to have another dispute.

Just looking at this process, Su Huaiyu at least participated in the arrangement of the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.

General Manager Wang: "According to the practice of the royal palace, the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet is arranged by the general manager. As the head of the back garden, Lady Su helped to assist. ”

The Chinese New Year's Eve banquet is a big event, and Su Huaiyu has just entered the mansion, so he definitely can't take it alone. If something goes wrong, the manager can't afford it.

"I see." Shen Xiu said, and asked again: "Female official Su takes care of the affairs of the back garden, do you think ...... How is it? ”

Manager Wang thought for a while and said, "Female Officer Su acted decisively and had the demeanor of a general. Dealing with things fairly and winning the hearts of the people. ”

Generally speaking, when a daughter-in-law is in charge, there will always be a little indecisiveness. Su Huaiyu is completely different, and he is not soft at all.

Acting fairly and impartially, such a principal is very rare.

But Su Huaiyu, who has such ability, can be divorced by her mother-in-law. He once doubted how powerful the Xu family's wife was.

"It's a rarity." Shen Xiu said.

In this way, Su Huaiyu is still both civil and military, so who she is is is very important.

"The old slave has been in the palace for many years, and I have heard of the skills of the female official Su." Mr. Wang said, "It's really rare. ”

Shen Xiu already had a plan in his heart, and was about to ask a few more words, when he heard the sound of footsteps, and the little eunuch outside hurriedly spoke: "The prince is here." ”

Shen Xiu was stunned, Han Xiao?

Of course, he wants to come over for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but the time has not yet come. When such a big thing happened in the morning, he must have been entangled in affairs, how could he come in advance.

"Concubine ......" Seeing that Shen Xiu was still stunned, Manager Wang hurriedly reminded.

Shen Xiu came back to his senses, and when he looked up, he saw Han Xiao entering the door with a frosty face. In the gloomy sky, snowflakes had already fallen, and Han Xiao was in a hurry, and there were some stains on his head.

"I've seen the prince." Shen Xiu hurriedly got up to salute, but he looked a little flustered.

When everything is entangled, but he came over early, is it for her?

No, it's too self-inflicted to think so.

Han Xiao stretched out his hand to help her up, and said with concern: "No need to do this, I wanted to go to see you in the afternoon, but I didn't have time to come and see you at this time." Morning chaos, can you get hurt? ”

Shen Xiu only felt that he had mixed feelings in his heart, and a little moved welled up, and said, "The concubine's car was driving behind, and the thieves didn't rush over. ”

"It's fine." Han Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm really afraid that you will have an accident." ”

Shen Xiu looked at Han Xiao in a daze, feeling both surprised and moved.

Han Xiao stood in front of her, talking face-to-face, which made her deeply feel Han Xiao's mood.

And what to lie to her, what is there to deceive her.

Han Xiao was really worried about her, and when he was so busy, he just took time out to see her.

"I'm good to worry about the prince." Shen Xiu said softly.

This intention, to say that it is not moved, is fake.

Han Xiao said: "At the banquet for a while, you don't have to speak. ”

"Hmm." Shen Xiu nodded, "Please rest assured, I will definitely not cause trouble." ”

Han Xiao nodded when he heard this, and said, "The banquet is about to start, if you say anything else, let's talk about it in the evening." ”
