Chapter 132: Proceed with Caution
In November, the old lady's birthday arrived, and last year, Xiao Zhan took Qixi to Xishan to train the army, and he never held a banquet for the old lady's birthday.
This year, the old lady's cough is intermittent, and the spirit of the people is more than half of the previous ones, and this year Xiao Zhan is at home, so he instructed the kitchen to buy a few tables for the old lady.
It turned out to be to invite some brothers who often followed their birth and death, and never wanted to make a big deal, one was to meet and talk to the brothers, and the other was to give the old lady a joy, which is also a saying that the old man has.
The old lady has been ill for a long time, although it is just a cough, and it is terrible that she is giving birth to some other diseases, so she wants to do a happy event to rush away the bad luck and sickness.
It was originally a small birthday banquet, but the emperor who heard that the old lady's birthday was approaching gave the old lady a jade ruyi and let the old lady rest in peace.
This was the emperor's selfishness to appease Xiao Zhan, and the days of dragging Xiao Zhan to marry Qixi were long, and the emperor always looked at Xiao Zhan and his own thoughts, he couldn't always perfunctory Xiao Zhan, so he used this gentle policy to save himself more time.
As soon as the news of the emperor sending Yu Ruyi came out, the small banquet became a big banquet, and all the houses sent congratulatory gifts of different sizes, and the emperor gave face, if they didn't send it, wouldn't it be a face for the emperor.
The emperor gives gifts, they must follow, this is also the emperor's intention, this is the emperor to support Xiao Zhan, so he chose this time, and when he said it, it was not the emperor's intention.
The emperor and the family picked up the gifts, and the Shoukang Palace in the Queen Mother naturally copied out a generous gift, which added glory to the lintels of the upper and lower doors of the General's Mansion, and also made Xiao Zhan have to make this birthday gift bigger, and feast everyone who gave gifts.
Among these people, it is natural to include one emperor and one queen mother!
At that time, the sky had reached the cold winter and the moon was bleak, and the sky in the capital was very cold in November, and the first snow was a little cold, and there was ice under the edge of the roof under the corridor, and I didn't feel like I shrunk my neck just by looking at it.
In the past few days, the house has been busy, and people up and down are busy pasting the gilded longevity word all over the entire general's mansion, the red lanterns are hung high, and the red silk is strung between the long columns, and the whole general's mansion is full of joy.
The subordinates who decorated the mansion hung the red silk on the Zizhuxuan of Qixi Festival, and at this moment Qixi gathered the rabbit fur collar cloak on his body, and stood under the corridor and looked at the people who came and went, and he couldn't see any fluctuations in his eyes, as if these people didn't exist in their own eyes.
Xiao Zhan sent Qixi a new dress to wear at the birthday banquet, and Qixi asked Linglong to put the new clothes in his house and did not try them on.
She knew that her existence would allow these people to explore, to look at herself with scrutinizing eyes, what kind of person she was, Qixi resisted from the bottom of her heart.
"Chengwangfu sent a birthday gift to the old lady, I want to wait for the old lady's birthday, she will be there to celebrate, you can also see, what does the person who wants to kill you look like!"
Since the last time he tried Qixi Festival, after Qixi closed up and didn't answer, Lu Yunyou paid special attention to the three words Chengwangfu, this time it was originally a small birthday banquet that was so big, Lu Yunyou knew that Chengwangfu would inevitably come to give gifts.
Lu Yunyou is really curious, when did Qixi get involved with King Cheng again, with her wanting to find human bone phosphorus powder, wanting to find a medicine powder that makes people palpitate and die, without the slightest hint of perceptible medicinal powder, so thinking about it, only this King Cheng Liu Yunting is more convincing.
"On the old lady's birthday, even the emperor and the queen mother gave things, think about it, it is normal to send birthday gifts in the palace of the king!"
Qixi stood under the porch, letting the cold wind rush into his neck, although he shivered with cold, but it made people very sober.
Regarding Lu Yunyou's temptation, Qixi was calm and calm, and did not take this temptation to heart, how Lu Yunyou said it, it was like a slap directly on the cotton, very powerless.
The aura of freedom on the surface, after recovering Lu Yunyou, skimmed her face at this moment, and what she rejected was nothing more than this reason.
Li Xiangning......
Li Xiangning was able to reach out to the General's Mansion to murder herself, she was afraid that Li Xiangning would do something that she shouldn't do on the day of the birthday banquet, ruining the birthday banquet and ruining Liu Yunting.
The birthday banquet is Xiao Zhan's heart for the old lady, and Qixi can't let it be ruined......
The old lady has been unwell since she entered the summer, and she has lost a lot of weight so far, Xiao Zhan has also cleared a lot of doctors, and even the imperial doctors in the palace have invited several, but they can't see what kind of door it is.
The toss and torment of good times and bad times tormented people, Xiao Zhan was also anxious for a while, and heard that there was a saying that there was a birthday banquet to dispel evil spirits, so he thought about half a smaller birthday banquet.
In addition to the birthday gift of the Chengwang Mansion, what Qixi knows, the Weiguo Mansion also sent one, and the Xiangwang Mansion also sent one!
Since returning to Beijing on Qixi Festival, Wei Guogong has obeyed Gu Tang's instructions, and is not obsessed with Qixi as before, wanting to recognize Qixi as his daughter, but from time to time he will still send some tonic or some clothes and other things to Qixi Festival.
Qixi will be collected, and it will also make people return some equivalent things, Wei Guogong is old in the end, and he is obsessed with his daughter, and Qixi really doesn't want to be embarrassed by it, so he can be relieved to accept some back.
These gifts are now received by Lu Yunyou, the old lady is unwell, and there are so many people who give gifts this year, the old lady's body can't take care of it, and Qixi doesn't want to take care of these, and now everything that should be done is under Lu Yunyou's care.
There are also people outside who are waiting for the old lady's birthday banquet to look at this nondescript general's mansion now......
The reputation in the general's mansion is not good, Xiao Zhan has already been said to be a man who spoils his concubine and kills his wife outside, the emperor gave face and held this birthday banquet, but how many people are there to give birthday gifts at the same time, waiting to see the scene that there is not even a wife in the general's mansion.
The General's Mansion without a wife, doing such a big thing, being criticized by others, will only be a joke!
That's why Qixi is reluctant to show up and cause trouble in vain!
"How many people's eyes are staring at this general's mansion, you don't want to tell me the truth, and I won't force you, but you still have to be careful......"
Nothing to offer courtesy, either treachery or theft, even the queen mother gave the old lady a gift at the birthday banquet, this banquet, Qixi wants to hide is not able to hide, can not hide to face, if you want to face, what you are afraid of is to face more than a banquet.
Li Xiangning's hand stretched out long, I am afraid that someone in this house will notice it early, and once it is carefully investigated, I am afraid that there is a net waiting there.
Fang Qingzhi didn't want to die in a breath, the Queen Mother was reluctant to let her daughter wait like this all the time, it was not a good thing to be calm for such a long time, what I was afraid of was that someone was already waiting there!
Lu Yunyou will be kind-hearted, not to persecute Qixi Festival, looking at Qixi San's tight-lipped appearance, he can only tell him like this.
Let her be on guard, don't be calculated.
Although I don't know if the Queen Mother has left a hand and waited for the opportunity to move, Li Xiangning's noisy meal there is afraid that it will be indispensable at that time.
It's rare to have such an occasion, just look at that Li Xiangning is a person who has revenge and will take revenge, she knows that she must be reluctant to let go of such an occasion!
"Be careful!" Lu Yunyou looked at the calm face of Qixi in front of him, and only said such a sentence.
The general's mansion has been quiet for so long, there is always a feeling that the trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop, the existence of Qixi has become a heart disease for many people, and some of Lu Yunyou's original hearts have been extinguished, but it does not mean that some people have destroyed that heart.
"I will, thanks for the reminder!" After listening to Lu Yunyou's words, Qixi raised his lips, and at this moment, he only smiled faintly at Lu Yunyou.
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and at this point, they will be stuck in this place where they do not advance or retreat, even if they want to hide, there is no place to hide, and if there is really a case, they can only go head-on.
But she will still thank Lu Yunyou for this reminder to herself, reminding herself to pay attention, at least at this time, Lu Yunyou did not think about falling into the well.
In the past, he was a durable chess piece in Lu Yunyou, but now it has changed!
"Then I'll go first, the day of the birthday banquet is approaching, be careful!" Everything that should be said was said, and Lu Yunyou said this to Qixi at this time, and then left Zizhuxuan.
Qixi watched Lu Yunyou leave, his eyes fell on the green bamboo at the door, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was just a slight hook......
You can't hide from what you should be......
