Chapter 33: Someone from the Palace

It's been five days since I returned to the capital in the blink of an eye.

On this day, early in the morning, someone came to report that someone had come to the palace.

"Please come in!" Gu Annuan was not surprised, she knew that as the concubine of the Marquis of Dingyuan, no matter what reason she returned to Beijing, the emperor would invite her into the palace, as for whether it was a simple palace banquet or a Hongmen banquet, it depended on the mood of the saint today.

"The minion knocks on the eldest lady!" The person who came was a very old father-in-law.

"Father-in-law doesn't need to be polite!" Gu An Nuan helped her father-in-law weakly.

It stands to reason that Gu Annuan doesn't have to be so polite to him, after all, he is just a minion, although he is a slave next to the emperor, he is just a large minion.

But Gu Annuan still deigned to help her father-in-law, which shows that she attaches great importance to the emperor and also shows her attitude. The people of the royal family want to be superior for whatever reason, so even the servants around the emperor have been respected undeservedly.

"Thank you, Miss, minion." The father-in-law stood up, his back slightly arched, although he was a slave by the emperor's side, but he was not qualified to hold his head high in front of his master.

"Father-in-law's surname? Come to the house, but what is the emperor's will? Gu Annuan knew the intentions of the people in the palace but still pretended not to know, after all, no emperor can like a person who can guess his own intentions, so some things have to be clear and pretend to be confused, otherwise the edge is too exposed, and the wind will destroy it.

"The slave's surname is high, and he should not be a noble word. The slave is the one who serves by the emperor's side, and the emperor has sent a message to the eldest lady. Gao Gonggong's words not only showed his identity, but also showed that he was ordered by the emperor to pass on the message.

As soon as Gonggong Gao said that there was an oracle, Gu Annuan led everyone to bow down, even if the oracle was not a holy decree, he had to make a big bow to show his importance to the emperor and his respect for the royal family.

"The emperor said that the second lady of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion has not been in Beijing for many years, and now I am very happy to return, and I will hold a special palace banquet for the two young ladies to pick up the wind and wash the dust." Gao Gonggong conveyed the emperor's dictation.

"Thank you father-in-law, it's really hard for my father-in-law to run in person." Gu Annuan made a color, and a maid brought up a purse.

"These fathers-in-law take a cup of tea, but don't dislike it." Gao Gonggong secretly reversed the weight of the purse, estimated that it was as much as one hundred taels, and left very satisfied.

"Master, there won't be any danger in this palace banquet?" Yinchuan asked after waiting for Gao Gonggong to leave.

"There is certainly no danger, but the purpose is certainly not simple." Gu Annuan smiled lightly.

"Sister, I'm back!" Gu Anxin came back from outside with a big grin, and shouted in the outer courtyard that she was back.

"Where are you going crazy again?" Gu Annuan looked at this naughty sister and had a headache, running around all day long, and she didn't even see a figure for a few days in the capital.

"It's time to eat," Gu Anxin sat on a chair, drinking tea cup by cup.

"But sister, didn't you say that it's good to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger? Why are you so resolute in cleaning them up? Gu Annan has not had time to ask Gu Annuan this question because he has been entangled in food in the past few days.

"I originally thought that they would die by themselves, how can they blame me?" Gu Annuan spread his hands and said that he was also helpless, okay?

Gu Anxin glanced at her.

Obviously, I can't hear anyone insulting my father and mother, so I'm angry, okay!

"Tomorrow there will be a banquet in the palace to entertain us," Gu Annuan sat next to Gu Anxin, took a sip of tea, and smacked drunkly.

"Will it be delicious?" As soon as Gu Anxin heard the palace banquet, his eyes flashed with excitement.

Gu Anxin nodded, indicating that there was.

"That's fine, if not, I'm not happy to go. After all, I haven't eaten the palace banquet in the palace yet! The chef must have made a delicious meal. After speaking, Gu Anxin licked his lips.
