Chapter 218: Slap in the face in public!
The fireworks are colorful and flying, and the starry sky is particularly bright. /
In Yuqing Palace, there are colorful paper cranes, they are either attached to the corner of the hall, or hung on the wall, connected into a curtain, through the beautiful halo of the lights into a dazzling light.
The reception banquet should have been set up in the Qianqing Palace, and it had already been arranged. However, in order to save face, Boli suddenly said that he wanted to get close to Sorentu in Yuqing Palace after agreeing to the banquet, hoping to have a banquet there for a while. Now, I was caught off guard. Crossing it J131
Zhezhe was stunned for a moment and wanted to get angry. Meng Guqing took over the task with a shallow blessing.
Time was in a hurry, and Meng Guqing knew that this was to test her and Sorentu's adaptability, and if she was not careful, she would lose face. Fortunately, Yuqing Palace is united, the tacit understanding is extraordinary, and there are two palaces of Qingning Palace and Qianqing Palace to help, so in just a few hours, everything has been taken care of.
There are more than 20 tables, and the men and women are separated by fanned screens, and they are uniformly covered with crimson tablecloths, which is noble and generous. Each table is equipped with maroon dining chairs and gold bowls, gold plates and chopsticks, which are valuable and clean. Each large round table has a glass disc equal to the tabletop, and there is a hinge at the bottom, so that each guest can turn it at will and taste his favorite food in time, and eat it by himself, which is much happier than the servants serving. In the center of the round table is a candle carved into a lotus pot, which adds more warmth to the auspicious feast.
At that time, glass could only be imported from abroad, which was not only extremely expensive, but also very scarce. The silver taels that cost one can buy several houses. And no one ever thought that candles could have such a "effect", so when the people who were ordered to arrange them saw them, they were surprised to close their mouths.
It's clearly showing off your wealth, and it's on purpose!
Meng Guqing wants this effect. Therefore, among the personnel dispatched, not only the three new maids of Sorentu were added, but also her "Seven Fairies". These ten Mongolian girls were already in awe of Meng Guqing, and when they saw such a magnificent arrangement, they didn't need to drink anything at all, they were already completely impressed, and they wished to stay in the palace to serve for a long time. In the face of the harmonious interaction between Meng Guqing and Yuqing Palace, they all praised that this was the style of the master mother, and the arrogant Nuo Min was not an opponent at all.
Out of fear, he suddenly became ten times more obedient than before.
Meng Guqing already understood the psychology from everyone's performance, kindly instructed them to do what they could, and secretly observed the people who were suitable to stay by his side.
She found that although the "Seven Fairies" were beautiful, they were not completely mindless, and Jilan and Xinglan among them were more responsible and more efficient than others. In this way, two places are set, and one more person is enough. The others were a little frivolous and too stammering, and it was really right to transfer them to the concubines.
When the time comes, the concubines who feel threatened will naturally hate Boli, and it is none of her business what they will do.
No matter what Boli wants, Meng Guqing will not be afraid, every time she is targeted and difficult, she just gives her a chance to perform.
When Boli Zhaisang and his entourage of Horqin entered Yuqing Palace in advance, their eyes widened in surprise.
Meng Guqing bowed deeply to the two elders, and then took the seat for them, and when he was led to the table, he said, "Mafa Mama, please rest first, and the granddaughter will go and see the guests." ”
Boli originally came to explore first, so he arrived earlier than Zhezhe and Huang Taiji, and his face turned red when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "No, the masters haven't come yet, there is no reason for us to sit here, let's go out and wait." ”
Meng Guqing saw that her face was very different from the arrogance she had just entered the house, and sighed: "The granddaughter has asked the emperor and queen before, and this is what they mean. ”
Boli made up his mind at this time, and pulled the sleeve of Zhai Sang beside him, wanting him to express his opinion. If Zhai Sang can say a few words, then she will be satisfied.
Who knew that Zhai Sang looked around happily, and after a while, he said: "It's very beautiful, Meng Guqing, you are really capable, unlike Nuomin, who can only eat and do nothing." ”
"Marfa." Meng Guqing was satisfied to see Bo Li's angry appearance, and hurriedly said, "Please sit down for a while, I will come when I go." ”
Then she went out of the hall and asked Tuya and Dulina, who were checking the list of guests, and when she learned that there were about the same number, she went around to the kitchen again to check every delicacies. Because Zhezhe transferred the manpower and materials of the imperial dining room to help, he was still in time. Crossing it J131
Zhai Sang's favorite black chicken soup, stewed over low heat, Meng Guqing walked to the stove and lifted the lid to check, just raised his hand, suddenly his waist tightened, and he screamed in fright.
"It's me." Sorentu, who was dressed as a chef, suddenly appeared behind her and raised an eyebrow proudly: "I don't recognize it." ”
Only then did Meng Guqing remember that there was a young cook cutting shredded potatoes beside him just now, and he never imagined that it was him. Asked with a smile: "Prince, do you still know how to cook?" ”
"Of course I won't, but I will chop vegetables. Also, the ginseng in the black chicken soup is a gift from me to the second elder. "Sorentu has been practicing secretly for the past few days, and these shredded potatoes are cut as thin as paper and as thin as silk, and they are in very good condition.
In the end, he also did his filial piety for the second elder. Meng Guqing suddenly understood his intentions, and nodded movingly: "If Marfa and they know, they will be very happy." ”
"I'm not an unfilial person, as long as they don't make it difficult for you, of course I won't be unreasonable." Sorentu grabbed her fingers, swept around, and saw that everyone had turned sideways to dodge, so he coughed and pulled Meng Guqing out.
When he got outside, Sorentu hid in the side room and was helped by Liang Sishan to change his clothes, and when he came out, he asked Meng Gu Qingzhai Sang and Boli if they had any bad behaviors. Seeing that he was so nervous, Meng Guqing teased and said, "They don't, as for Nuo Min......"
"What did she do again?" Sorentu grabbed Meng Guqing's hand at once: "This stinky girl, I'll drive her away immediately!" ”
"Don't be in a hurry. I'm just kidding. Meng Guqing was disgusted: "The person who comes is a guest, no matter how much you hate her, you can't drive her away, the prince should pay attention later, don't do anything rude for the sake of being temporary." ”
"Okay. But if she's going too far, then don't blame me for being unkind. Sorento tightened his fingers and pulled her back to the inner sanctum.
The hall is more lively than Shicai. Meng Guqing saw that Nuo Min had changed his flag uniform, wearing a turquoise herringbone placket decorated with green branches and dark stripes, and a lotus-colored pleated skirt, which looked delicate and cute. Beside her, there are five beautiful girls excitedly surrounded, like stars holding the moon. Meng Guqing saw that they were all pretending, so he guessed the identity, and took the initiative to walk over and say, "You have been waiting for a long time." ”
"Hello sister." The eldest of them all, the eldest girl was about fourteen years old, with a gentle eyebrow and a goose-egg face, and she looked like a philosopher, and she was the first to greet her, and saluted with a smile: "Who am I, can you guess who my sister is?" ”
Meng Guqing saw that she was dressed in goose yellow embroidered plum branch bijia and a pale pink long skirt, which was both elegant and generous, so she tried to guess: "But the second sister of the third uncle's family?" ”
The girl's eyes suddenly showed surprise, and she smiled and said, "You actually guessed right." I'm Uligi. ”
"Second sister is good." Meng Guqing once heard A Yisi say that Wu Liji's temperament is the best among the girls in the family, but it is a pity that she is a concubine, except for this, there is nothing to blame, she suddenly became affectionate to her, held hands and said: "It's really you, E-Niang often mentions, we finally met." ”
"I've also heard of it for a long time." Wu Liji was originally worried that Meng Guqing, who had a low status, would look down on her, but now his doubts disappeared, and his favor became several times more, and he unconsciously admired: "Losing my sister to the media, I am abusing Yan and Jia Mao, and I am burning it>!
"It's nothing, it's just a pity that it's in a hurry, it's good that it's not rude." Meng Guqing said, glancing to the side.
Sure enough, Nomin was already angry, and he tightened his veil unconvinced. She is the concubine of Manzhu Xili, Meng Guqing does this, she is very faceless.
Meng Guqing ignored her, only led Wu Liji to the side, and asked gently: "Where is the prince over there, let me lead you to meet?" ”
Uliji bowed his head cautiously and shyly: "The slave doesn't dare to trespass." ”
"Don't" Wu Liji's face is a good wife and mother, and she has a good reputation in Horqin, Meng Guqing hit it off at first sight, and because Nuo Min deliberately promoted her. He walked hand in hand in front of Sorentu, and said, "Prince, this is Sister Wuliji." ”
"Hello sister." Although Suorentu saw that Uliji was not beautiful, it made people feel very comfortable, so he nodded reassuringly: "Sister has come from afar to work hard, let's sit with Meng Guqing later." "Let's cross J131
"This." There is a difference, and Uligi is a little scared.
"It's okay." Meng Guqing could see that Wu Liji was far less favored than Nuo Min, so he had the heart to do so. And from Wu Liji's mouth, I know that the "girl group" who entered Beijing with Boli, except for two who are distant relatives, are all daughters of their own uncles. Boli actually did this in order to deal with her, which can be seen to be hard-hearted.
For such thoughts, it should be repaid. Meng Guqing lowered his head and thought for a moment, a grim smile appeared on his lips.
After waiting a little longer, the feast finally began. Meng Guqing is in the second position to the left of Zhezhe, and the first one is empty. The third is Uliji.
Nomin was pushed to the right, two people away from Boley, and he was very unhappy. She looked hard, and when she saw the empty chair, her eyes flashed with excitement, and she tried to stand up.
"Sister, that one is not yours." Meng Guqing pointed it out in public, and smiled completely without giving face: "It's better for you to sit and don't move, so as not to lose your tutor." ”
Nuo Min bit his lip and refuted unwillingly: "I am a concubine, I am not qualified to sit, who will sit?" ”
"Me." Sorentu flashed out of the side of the screen at the right time, his eyes were as bright as blades: "The thief is really shameless, you are a concubine, why didn't you think that you were a concubine when you stole something?" I still want to sit next to the emperor's mother, and I am not afraid of being defiled! ”
It's so straightforward. Nuo Min thought that he wanted to give some face, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said with tears in his eyes: "Prince, you are too much, how can you slander the slave casually!" ”
"My eyes are proof!" Sorentu laughed and said, "Do you want me to continue?" "The net doesn't skip words.
"Prince, let's not mention the past. How can I say that the sixth sister also took the initiative to visit your dormitory before, and she has already shown her face in front of the people, how can you stand it like this? Meng Guqing persuaded and laughed.
The faces of the people immediately changed, and they looked at each other in embarrassment. Everyone already knew about the hairpin stealing incident before, but this time not only did it sit down, but it was even more clear that Nuo Min was so shameless!
An unmarried girl took the initiative to ask to visit the prince's bedroom, Tian was shameless, and even stole and was seen by all the subordinates, how could she still have such a face so unscrupulous!
There was a slight commotion, and everyone quickly exchanged opinions with their eyes.
Nomin was stunned and didn't know what to do, so she clenched her fingers so hard that the tablecloth was about to break.
Boli glanced at the Mongolian girls who were waiting around, and then looked at Meng Guqing, who seemed to have understood something, stood up and smiled and said: "Prince, Meng Guqing, what kind of joke is this, it's better to talk later, everyone has a banquet."
