Although it is early spring, the snow is not light, and the Lingjiang River is still a little chilly.

An Ruofei and Meng Qingye have been in Lingjiang for more than ten years, and they either go out with Xi Yan every day, if Xi Yan is busy with business, An Ruofei and Meng Qingye stay in the mansion and have nothing to do all day.

In the past few days, Xi Yan has been thinking about it, since he and An Ruofei have become husband and wife, skin to skin, he has the idea of setting up a private banquet in the house, and he also intends to reveal the relationship between the two.

The decision was made, and Xi Yan told An Ruofei about it. In addition to being stunned, An Ruofei was more moved, he had been a wabi widow for half his life, and he didn't want to be able to be like a spring platform after meeting Xi Yan.

The pomegranate flowers are in full bloom, and the private banquet is set up in the banquet room of Xifu Garden. Because it was a private banquet, in addition to Xi Yan, An Ruofei and Meng Qingye, only Liu Peiqi and others were invited, and all of them were Xi Luan's old department. At that time, General Yi Jin, who was embarrassed in front of Daqing Pass, was also listed.

Xi Yan has never liked dancing and singing phoenixes in the banquet, so there are only two or three people at today's banquet, and the music is like snow, but it is also very elegant.

Xi Yan and An Ruofei sat side by side at the top, and the top seat was Meng Qingye, who had some attainments in Yale, and at this moment he was even more like a fish in water, drinking and having fun comfortably. Below, Liu Peiqi and other foreign ministers sat on both sides of the banquet hall.

During the banquet, the cups were changed, and most of the people were just for the courtesy, so it was not lively.

Xi Yan raised the wine cup in his hand, looked at the people in the banquet, and said, "Tonight, the light and the moon, thanks to all of you for moving to the Jade Mansion." I have been in Lingjiang for less than a month, and I should have been on the road, but everything went smoothly, and the reason for this is all thanks to your help. This banquet is to thank you for your help. Second, I also want to introduce Mrs. to you. I'll take a glass of gratitude first. With that, Xi Yan drank all the wine in the cup.

When everyone saw this, they drank all the wine in their cups. Liu Peiqi was about to speak, but was preempted by Yi Jin, "Where does the son speak, we can be regarded as living up to the trust of Huan Guohou." ”

Xi Yan smiled indifferently, "General Yi is very good at his brother, but he is speechless. ”

Seeing this, Liu Peiqi had a bad heart, so he hurriedly came out to play a round: "We are all serving the son and Lingjiang now." It is a blessing for my generation to be able to assist my son. Do you say, General Yi? ”

Yi Jin was noncommittal, and only said: "Mr. Liu's words seem to have some truth, after all, everyone is the old department of Huan Guohou, and it is understandable for the sake of Lingjiang and Gongzi." ”

Liu Peiqi saw that Yi Jin didn't appreciate it at all, and his face was a little unbearable, but he only heard Xi Yan say: "General Yi is worthy of being a man of temperament, and his heart is the same." ”

When Yi Jin heard this, he poured all the wine in the cup into his mouth, and laughed: "I am a native of Penghao, and I am fortunate to have the appreciation of the Hou Ye, so I have this scene today." If you have a straight heart, please don't blame the son! With that, almost smashing, he put the wine cup back on the table.

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became solemn. Xi Yan was still smiling on his face, but there was a sharp light in his eyes that was fleeting, "It's a good thing to be straightforward and fast, how can I blame it?" The ancients had clouds, and life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon. You should also have a good drink. ”

Seeing this, Liu Peiqi hurriedly got up: "What Gongzi said is very true. He looked at An Ruofei beside Xi Yan again, and arched his hand at her, "Liu Peiqi has seen his wife, and I hope that his son and his wife will raise their eyebrows." ”

Yi Jin also looked at An Ruofei at this time, "I didn't expect that the son was so young that he was already married, but I don't know when he worshipped?" ”

An Ruofei looked at Xi Yan beside him, and said with a slight smile: "At this time, Lingjiang is still unstable, as for the banquet ceremony, it is not too late to wait until the day when Lingjiang is stable." ”

Yi Jin suddenly scoffed, "It turned out to be a dewy mandarin duck." ”

Xi Yan's face was as cold as ice for a moment, and he was about to attack, but he felt An Ruofei secretly and gently shake his hand.

At this time, Meng Qingye, who had been leaning on the chair, couldn't help but speak: "General Yi, you are too wide!" Whether it's Xi Luan or Xi Yan, when they see me, they have to call their uncle, as an elder, can't I still be the master? ”

Seeing that Yi Jin didn't answer, Meng Qingye sneered again: "The two of them were witnessed by me, don't you think what I said can't be counted?" ”

Yi Jin was speechless for a while, he couldn't imagine that Meng Qingye's seniority was so high, so he had to laugh twice: "What Grandpa Meng said is that I lost my words." ”

"Humph! Opinionated. After Meng Qingye finished speaking, he drank by himself, ignoring Yi Jin and raising a glass to him. Xi Yan didn't want the atmosphere to be too embarrassing, so he raised his glass frequently. After three rounds of drinking, the banquet became harmonious again.

Seeing that Yi Jin was playing with the wine cup in his hand, Meng Qingye couldn't help but sneer again: "General Yi, but you haven't drunk enough?" Why bother to torture with a wine cup. ”

Who knew that this Yi Jin was not a person to provoke, so he said coldly: "I just looked at the wine cup in my hand, and I couldn't help but sigh that the door valve of this family is different." ”

"What's the difference?"

Yi Jin chuckled, "Little grandfather, you were born into a family, so naturally you don't think it's any different." You see, none of the things in this hall today are mortal, and this is just the Xi family's mansion in Lingjiang. If it is in Chongdu, then how luxurious should it be? ”

Xi Yan looked at Yi Jin's eyes at this time, as if he was looking at a jumping clown, "What does Yi Qing want to say?" ”

Yi Jin still played with the wine cup, and only said: "This reminds me of an allusion, in the past, Shi Chong and Wang Kai fought for wealth, Wang Kai painted the wall with red stone grease, and Shi Chong asked his subordinates to paint the wall with spices after he knew about it; Wang Kai made a forty-mile cloth tent out of silk, and Shi Chong made a fifty-mile cloth tent out of silk. But the result? Yi Jin deliberately paused and said in a lengthened tone, "Shi Chong didn't end up rebelling and dying in the end. Childe thinks that Shi Chong's move is not advisable? ”

Knowing that he had something to say in his words, referring to Sang and scolding Huai, Xi Yan still maintained his bearing, "That is naturally not advisable," "Although there is a pile of gold and jade, it is not such a usage." ”

"yes." Yi Jin seemed to be a little regretful, and shook his head again and again, "It's a pity that the green bead beauty, after Shi Chong's death, she also fell down the building and committed suicide." However, as a singer, she can be so favored by Shi Chong, but it can't be regarded as a ruined life. ”

At this time, Xi Yan's heart was already burning with the fire of ignorance, but he still looked at Yi Jin quietly, listening to him continue to accumulate and foam.

"Speaking of green beads, I seem to remember that my wife moved the capital with a green waist dance. It's just that the green bead ended miserably, but fortunately, the lady and the son have a deep relationship, and they will definitely not repeat the mistake of the green bead. ”

Xi Yan's face was gloomy, and he couldn't imagine Fang Cai's forbearance towards him, but it made him even more inches, and he dared to compare his wife with the green bead who did not die well.

It's just that all the subordinates are there, and Xi Yan can't dispose of his brother's old ministry in front of them, so he can only suppress the anger in his heart, turn around and order Xi Yun who is with him: "General Yi has drunk too much, send him home." ”

When Xi Yun was about to help Yi Jin, he pushed him away, "No, I'll go by myself!" ”

As soon as Yi Jin left, the slightly condensed atmosphere in the hall did not relax, but became even more stagnant, and after a while, the other officials also retreated one by one.

Only Liu Peiqi sat in the distance a little calmly.

The situation has developed to such an extent, no one expected that seeing that there was only one outsider left, Liu Peiqi got up, slammed it to the ground again, and said very earnestly: "Son, General Yi has always been like this, and his subordinates will compensate you on his behalf." ”

Xi Yan snorted coldly, "Why do you want Liu Qing to compensate?" He used Shi Chong as an analogy to me in his words, could he be so vague and tortuous and insinuating? ”

"I think General Yi is also in a daze for a while, so Gongzi should forgive him this time."

The hall fell silent for a while, only Liu Peiqi was still standing in place, and after a long time, Xi Yan spoke unhurriedly.

"That's it, with Liu Qing as a guarantee, I won't care about this matter anymore. It's just that the dull ones live, and the sharp ones die. I still hope he understands that. It's not too early, so you can go back too. ”

"The subordinates thanked the son for General Yi, and the subordinates retired." After that, Liu Peiqi made a gesture and left the Xi Mansion by himself.

Meng Qingye looked at Liu Peiqi's back as he left, and said with interest: "Big nephew, you can't hide the killing intent in your eyes just now, how can you forgive him again?" ”

Xi Yan took a sip of tea, and his expression was calm: "The last time Yi Jin bumped into me, Liu Peiqi came out to plead for mercy. If we only tell the truth, I'm afraid that when he will make a mistake and defect. This Yi Jin, I don't doubt his loyalty to his brother before. It's just that...... After all, my brother is an old man, and now I am his master, and the human heart is the most incomprehensible, who knows what he will do to me. ”

Meng Qingye nodded with a hard mouth, he grew up in a family since he was a child, although he saw it thoroughly, he hated these people the most.

"What do you think?" Xi Yan knew that Meng Qingye had always understood it, so he asked him.

"It's the same as what you see, your current position can't tolerate any mistakes." Meng Qingye smiled facelessly, "If you really can't get used to it, but find an opportunity to get rid of it, why indulge him like this?" ”

An Ruofei, who was originally drinking sweet soup on the side, also smiled, "I saw him rise from a tall building, and I saw his tall building collapse." At present, it is the time to employ people, and this building cannot be demolished. ”

Xi Yan smiled and bowed, "Yes, if you are in a hurry to get rid of him at this moment, I am afraid that his subordinates will mutiny." Madame is really ice and snow smart. As he spoke, he grabbed An Ruofei's shoulders and brought the spoonful of sweet soup to her mouth.

Meng Qingye couldn't help but turn his face away when he saw the two of them, and said hatefully: "In the future, I will marry my wife, and I will love you every day." ”

"Wait for the good news, don't send it."

When Meng Qingye heard this, he was so angry that he brushed his sleeves and left, Xi Yan and An Ruofei also went back to the room together, and after a ** Gao Tang, the two hugged each other and fell asleep.
