The father-in-law in the palace came, but the Ruan family did not arrive. No matter what Old Taijun Song thought in his heart, his face was calm and asked the maid to take Wang Fu to the seat and sit down. After waiting for someone to sit at the table, he hurriedly said to Ni Zhen'er next to him, "Go and call the eldest lady over." ”

She used to rely on the identity of the housewife in the house and didn't come, but now the queen has seen it. Even Sheng Feifei's birthday didn't make sense in the past - I don't understand it, the Sheng family's concubines don't have such a row, and the palace somehow sent a birthday gift for a concubine.

Ruan Shi was also stunned when she was called, because she was just a concubine, she didn't pay attention to it, but now she was called out by the old lady in a hurry, and her sideburns were slightly messy. The news always spread the fastest, and when the things in the palace were delivered, the crown princess sent a birthday gift first, along with several other princesses.

Shelving the Sheng family is only that Mrs. Sheng has such treatment.

"Fei Fei, what's going on?" Meng Yao originally wanted to sit in the middle seat, and being closest to the main family was a kind of identity. But now that a few royal people are here, she can only sit with her.

Sheng Feifei shook her head, she didn't know what was going on. Old Taijun Song and Sheng Guogong sat on the main seat, and it stands to reason that the juniors should not come to celebrate their birthdays, for fear of losing their lives. But this was Sheng Mingzhu's first time back to Beijing, and Mrs. Song didn't even interfere in the granddaughter's birthday banquet.

That's what others think.

"She's just a concubine in the end, and now that the pomp and circumstance are so big, what will the old family do in the future?" Although Mrs. Song had a smile on her face, she was dissatisfied in her heart.

"If you really can't see it. Wait for Brother Lin's birthday next time, you have invited so many royal relatives. Sheng Guogong knew in his heart that the reason why His Majesty did this was to give Sheng Qian love. The old wife's words made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Originally, Jiang Runyan and Song Yu should have attracted much attention when they were present, but because of the first few princesses in front of them, the two talented women and beauties were not as dazzling as they had expected. Yun Niang was supposed to lead the banquet, but when the Ruan family came, she arranged the seating of these noble ladies.

In the garden of the Sheng family, there are enough people to accommodate more than 1,000 people. The seats were placed around the water pavilion in the middle at one time, and Song Yu was deliberately pulled by Jin Zhi to a position closer to Sheng Mingzhu. Jiang Runyan moved the lotus step lightly, and then made it to the other side, and raised a glass with her with a light smile, "Sister Song, is it a day when you don't see you?" ”

Song Yu also looked at her gently.

Song Zhi came with his sister and sat down beside her. Sheng Feifei grabbed the handkerchief in her hand, and she didn't want to sit down with Meng Yao. On the middle platform, there are people performing songs and dances, and Song is on one side, drinking lightly until another person next to him sits down. The man was handsome, wearing a green robe.

"Second Brother Song."

Liu Zhiran and Song Zhi did not have a deep friendship. But who in the capital doesn't know anyone?

Song Wei glanced at him, the last time something like that happened, shouldn't the Liu family have already torn their faces with the Sheng family? Why did this Liu Zhiran come? Song Zhi's heart turned back and forth, thinking about the twists and turns, but he usually had a smile on his face, and when the two finished touching the cup, the main owner of the one today also came.

Sheng Mingzhu still wore her favorite shark yarn, and lightly wrapped the shawl sent by the Yan family in Liufu. Wearing the forehead ornament given to her by Sheng Ruoqiu in the past, Liu Zhiran was holding a wine glass in her hand and was pouring wine, but it happened that her eyes swept here, and she only skimmed lightly, and the wine was sprinkled when she poured it upside down.

Sheng Feifei and the others were not far from him, and immediately complained in a low voice.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Liu Zhiran hurriedly apologized, Sheng Feifei saw that it was a young man with a fair face, and the originally blazing anger dropped a little.

Sheng Mingzhu was already seated on the side, Song Yu put away her skirt, and the two seemed to be talking about something. Jiang Runyan hung his head and didn't know what he was thinking, but when he saw Sheng Mingzhu coming, his eyes rolled slightly, "Sister Song has a good relationship with Miss Sheng San, which makes people jealous——"

Sheng Mingzhu was drinking the wine made from sweet fruits, and when he heard this, he looked at the county lord of Najiang. This time, the whole sip of wine almost squirted out, and she swallowed it again. Song Yu looked back at her with mist in her eyes, as if she was crying, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Sheng Mingzhu wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "It's okay......" After speaking, he glanced at Jiang Runyan again. Jiang Runyan happened to raise his head, so he also glanced back at her. Sheng Mingzhu hung her head in disdain, and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief - she said how familiar the woman's appearance was, she had met Lord Jiang.

The woman in her dream was older than Lord Jiang, and she was wearing heavy makeup, which made her unrecognizable. It's obvious that he is the lord of Jiang County after he has matured!

"Why does the third lady always look at me? Is there something wrong with me dressing up today? Being swept by people one after another, Jiang Runyan couldn't notice it.

The corners of Sheng Mingzhu's lips twitched, and after a while, he flattered, "The county lord is beautiful today. "The future queen mother, she always feels that her current self is different from these people here, in fact, if you think differently - knowing who the next emperor is, and finding out the person who is plotting rebellion, their Sheng family only needs to pick a thicker thigh to hold.

Jiang Runyan didn't expect her to say such a thing, so she combed her hair, "Third Miss praises falsely." ”

Sheng Feifei sat on the side, and muttered when she heard the words, "Sycophant." ”

Jiang Runyan's brows furrowed, and he drank a little unhappily. In the end, how deep the scheming is, there are all girls here, and there are only looks and clothes in the shallow world, and others praise her for being naturally happy. Sheng Feifei said a word of sycophancy, what do you mean?

She has a high status, and her temper is sometimes a little colder.

His face was cold for a while, and the scene was cold.

"Have you heard about the case today?" Song Yu was afraid of ruining Sheng Mingzhu's birthday banquet, so he diverted the topic, "Second brother, you have been talking the most every day, why don't you tell us about this matter today when it comes to a crowded place?" ”

Several women looked at Song Value together.

"The case committed with an iron fist is cleared up and stained with blood." Song Zhi has always disliked Guan Ping, and he looks down on his way of handling things. To seize power is to kill, to stabilize the government is to use punishment, and to be a rough person.

"Guan Ping is just a villain who tends to be inflammatory, and his methods are ruthless, what do you say he does?" Sheng Feifei opened her mouth, and Mrs. Song always whispered this in her ear, and naturally remembered it after a long time. There was some silence for a while, but Guan Ping seemed to be this in the eyes of everyone.

No one spoke, and Jiang Runyan was a little upset for him.

A moment later, a warm male voice came out, "The stability of the court lies in balance. When the governor was in charge, I was still young. But he knew that the Great Wei regime was chaotic, although his knife was stained with countless blood, but without him now, there would be no scattered Great Wei now. Although he used his hands to seize power, he did re-establish power in the devastated Great Wei.

Sheng Mingzhu looked at the man, a little pity. The mind is clear, but such words should never be said on such an occasion.

Liu Zhiran has always had a lot of admiration for the governor who is now under one person, and he always feels a little uncomfortable when he listens to others demoting him to dust. I happened to raise my eyes and meet a pair of eyes, as if I was a little surprised, and after a while, I smiled at him and shook my head again.

Liu Zhiran only then reacted, what the hell is the situation of Dawei, it is not something he can say. His face was slightly red, and he hung his head.

"Third Miss-" Chen Cen walked over, half-bent over, "I went out today, looked at a row of brocade guards, and gave this thing to the porter." said that it was the birthday gift of the third lady from the governor of Guan Du-"Say Cao Cao Cao will arrive, nothing faster than this." Jiang Runyan looked at Sheng Mingzhu for a while, and his tone was heavier than before.

I couldn't hear whether I was displeased or surprised, "The third lady is so blessed, the nobles in the capital have never had to take care of the governor." ”

Sheng Feifei scratched the handkerchief for a while. Guan Ping is feared by many people, but now even he has given Sheng Mingzhu a gift, last time she and Lu Li were not like this - Sheng Mingzhu is a concubine, what does she want, compare herself to herself?

"What a beautiful cape!" Song Yu watched Sheng Mingzhu open the box, which contained a red cloak, Song Yu touched it, "Is it fox skin?" The rare red fox skin is still complete. Even Song Yu couldn't take his eyes off, and the few next to him were naturally all.

The cloak was soft, and there was not a trace of stray hair. Sheng Mingzhu's eyes lit up, and she wanted to go back and try it immediately, but it was not good to leave the guests. pretended to be dignified and let Jin Zhi put it away, "Why did the governor give you a gift?" Jiang Runyan's eyes followed the thing.

"Maybe it's because of my brother-in-law, my eldest brother-in-law is under the governor of the capital." Sheng Mingzhu found a reason.

Jiang Runyan sat for a while, only to feel that there was a breath in his chest that couldn't come up, so he said, "I still have some things, so I will stay soon" After speaking, he ignored everyone's reaction, and left directly.

Song Yu leaned against Sheng Mingzhu's ear, "It's better not to show your face like this." ”

Sheng Mingzhu only smiled and didn't say anything else.

——

When he returned to the house at night, Sheng Mingzhu put on the shawl. Before she could look in the mirror to see what it looked like, she suddenly remembered her dream from yesterday, and she was afraid that she would forget it - she was busy going out to Sheng Qian's study, and Jin Zhi was moving a large mirror for her to see, but no one ran away.

Propped up behind the mirror for a long time, I didn't know what was going on in front of me, "Third Miss? Miss? ……”

"Mr. Guan, thank you for the previous incident."

Guan Ping smiled, "I didn't help the adults either." ”

Sheng Qian didn't say anything about it anymore. He knew it very well in his heart, so when Liu Zhiran came to the household department, he didn't have any disgust. There is no way to escape these methods anywhere, not to mention that Liu Zhiran is a good child, but his brain is too straight and he has been delayed.

"What are you going to do with this 10 million taels of silver?" Guan Ping asked again.

Sheng Qian thought for a while, and after a while, said, "Take it from the people, return it to the people." ”

Guan Ping hung his head, and he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly. After a while, he got up from his chair, "I don't have a good reputation, so I won't continue to ruin Sheng Shilang's reputation." After that, he went out, Sheng Qian knew that he was light, so he didn't send it, so he turned back. The chair was slightly moved away from the seat where he was sitting just now.

Next to the folding fan, there is a word written in tea: Song.
