Princess Wei moved from Chang'an to Anyang City to live, it has been three or two months, but all the people in the city who are on the stage know this thing, what is the status of King Wei, do not need to mention more, the first month to hear the letter, the invitation to send to the door without interruption, but I have not heard of any family is fortunate to see Princess Wei herself.

This group of people just stopped thinking about it, and they didn't expect to suddenly receive an invitation, Princess Wei will hold a banquet at the Governor's Mansion tomorrow to celebrate her birthday.

How can anyone delay inviting guests the day before the birthday banquet, if it were someone else, it would definitely be because of negligence and could not invite guests, but this Princess Wei is not someone else's family, more people want to see the true face of this princess in Lushan.

Not much else, just because she is the only concubine in the palace of Prince Wei is enough to make people curious, not to mention the gossip from Beijing, about the various "deeds" of this princess.

This caused the day of February 12, starting from the morning, there was a rush of traffic in front of the Governor's Mansion, and the first ones were all gifts, and the porter did not know whether it had been favored by the superiors, so he accepted all the orders, and those who came did not refuse, and they were not polite at all.

Half an hour before Yiyu left the banquet, she took a carriage from the other courtyard, and Shanshan entered the governor's mansion through the side door, she had the foresight, if she walked through the front door, she might be blocked until the banquet.

The courtyard where she rested had been carefully cleaned yesterday, the windows were bright and clean, and the fragrant branches in the vase were all freshly folded this morning.

After going out for the first time after the New Year, Yu Yu's body was not good, and as soon as he entered the door, he went to change his clothes first, and after solving his physiological problems, he sat comfortably on the low couch, and let Pinghui pass Sun Lei, who was waiting outside the door, in.

"Princess Qiyu, Xia Guan has set up six porridge sheds in the city, and as soon as the morning dawns, he will start ringing the bell to give porridge, but there are not many victims who come to eat, and if it goes on like this, the porridge and rice prepared today will probably be wasted."

"What are you anxious about, isn't this just the first day, don't you know that someone is going around to catch the victims, they haven't had time to escape, how dare you come out openly to find food, Anyang City is so big, you only occupy six, be patient, people will gather more and more."

Sun Lei lowered his head in a regular manner when he entered the door, listening to her lukewarm tone, he couldn't help but look up at her.

Today's jade, Xu is to celebrate his birthday, from head to toe is carefully dressed, combing the complicated hair, the hairpin ring on the hair is a rare Jinhua pearl emerald, extravagant very, with Dai powder to refine the eyebrows and eyes, covering the puffiness of pregnancy, the pregnant woman has a little more intriguing charm, but she relies on a purple red sleeve robe with too heavy tones, full of interpretation.

On her forehead is a flower made of gold leaf, the shape of which seems to be like the frangipani that can be seen everywhere on the garden wall, but it is only the shape, the frangipani is clearly a delicate and small flower, not vulgar and indecent, and even the fragrance is faint and general, how can there be such a compelling luxury in her eyebrows.

"What else does Sun Dianjun have to say?"

An inquiry called Sun Lei back to his senses, he was fortunate that he was not a person who liked to look good, and lowered his head again, in order to cover up Fang Cai's rudeness, he opened his mouth and asked:

"Does the princess have anything else to say?"

He just asked casually, but who knew that Yu Yu actually responded:

"There's one more thing, but there's no rush at this time, you go to greet the guests first, and then come to see me after the banquet."

Sun Lei glanced at her again suspiciously, and then withdrew.

The banquet time is approaching, and many guests in the vestibule have arrived in advance, and Yiyu listened to the report of the next person, but did not care, so he asked Pinghui to cook a pot of flower tea, hugged the piano out, ordered the tune, and listened to her play the music.

In this way, the guests came one after another, until the room was full, and the chief steward in charge of the service sent someone to the main room to ask for the jade.

One is not seen, the other is not invited, seeing that it is more than half of noon, and the empty banquet of the host is gradually chaotic, the manager is sweating profusely and personally comes over, not wanting to eat the door keeper Pingxia A closed door, not even seeing people, only one sentence:

"What's the hurry, the princess is not feeling well, she wants to lie down for a while, let them wait to go, they can't wait to go, who is leaving whom?"

The manager didn't dare to learn Pingxia's original words to the guests, and in the face of the hundreds of distinguished guests in the garden, he had to open his mouth smoothly, not mentioning the princess's lateness, but only took the wine and food on the table to talk about things, introducing the freshness for a while, and explaining the origin for a while.

The guests are not many good-natured, today's sun is big, sitting in the banquet garden, with the noon sun on their heads, the menu that was temporarily prepared yesterday is not necessarily delicious, and after waiting for half an hour, no one is seen, and the smiles on their faces are gradually put away, revealing impatience.

After a while, someone finally couldn't stand such snubbing, and interrupted the manager's remarks, and said in a strange way:

"Okay, if you keep talking, this should be a restaurant. It's still bothering Manager Zhou to invite the princess, don't let her forget that there are still us guests in the garden. ”

The middle-aged man who spoke was named Dai Liang, and he was the current patriarch of the Dai family, a famous local family in Anyang.

This Dai Shangshu, as early as when the emperor was still in the East Palace, was a staff member of the army, because he was upright, liked to advise, the emperor ascended the throne, when it was reused, once served as Shangshu Zuocheng, and had inspected the post of Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, but it is a pity that such a loyal prime minister's talent, a few years ago in Beijing died of illness, when the emperor mourned for his strike for three days, and posthumously presented his Taoist Gong, nicknamed "loyalty", which can be seen to be honored.

The Dai family started in Anyang, which has a long history, but it is really prosperous because of such a good appearance, because Dai Zhou has no children, so he takes Dai Zhide, the son of his brother, as his descendant, and the official is passed on, so he can shade the Dai family and become a major local family, so that the patriarch of the Dai family, Dai Liang, is the assassin of Xiangzhou, and he will be polite to him on the face.

That's why today he is the patriarch of a big family, and he will come to congratulate a woman on her birthday, and he originally felt that he was a little low-level, and after waiting for so long, he would not have a good face.

Manager Zhou secretly pinched a cold sweat and said with a smile:

"Gong Dai is a little restless, the old slave will go and invite the princess to come."

Dai Liang said dissatisfiedly: "Go and come back quickly." ”

"Yes, yes."

Manager Zhou responded again and again, as soon as he turned around, he looked up at the entrance of the flower corridor in the south, and when he saw the figure, he immediately stopped, and an old face smiled.

Otherwise, he would rather run to the kitchen and hide than serve this group of difficult guests.

As soon as a guest here noticed the movement and was looking curiously, he heard Mr. Zhou read:

"Let you wait a long time, the princess is here."

At the banquet, everyone twisted their faces in unison and saluted.

I saw the entrance of the flower gallery when I came, the figures who came in front and behind, a group of maids who were in their prime, with a graceful posture, all wearing exquisite silk clothes, holding the top of the five yang hanging spikes, holding the silver hook jade seal pot, holding the brocade flower mat, holding the purple gauze warm incense burner, you can smell an elegant fragrance from a distance, I don't know whether it is the amount of eight gold and one penny or the dragon brain, and the smell of the fragrance will know that it is precious, which has not yet approached, it makes people see the style.

When I got closer, I saw the hostess who was surrounded by flowers, and I knew what it meant to be dazzling and dazzling, and for a while I understood why it was rumored that King Wei favored a concubine in Beijing, and even did not hesitate to offend the eldest grandson's family for her.

However, everyone didn't have time to marvel too much at the beauty of the princess, and they were attracted all attention by the visible bulge between her robes.

is not blind, so obviously it is impossible to see that Princess Wei is pregnant now, and she has a pair of white eyes.

There were even a few people who forgot the etiquette and directly "watched" her sit down.

"Excuse me, please take a seat."

With a lukewarm greeting, Yi Yu began to look at the guests who came to the banquet today, the invitation was sent by her, and the list was from Sun Lei, whether it was an official, a big or a small official, there was only one characteristic, either rich or expensive.

It can be said that the characters who have won the stage in Anyang City are all sitting here now, except for Xiangzhou Thorn Shi who was absent due to official duties, but Mrs. Thorn Shi brought her beloved son to celebrate her birthday very face-savingly.

She looked at everyone unhurriedly, and when she thought that many people were relying on buying and selling victims for personal gain, her already pretending to be cold and arrogant showed a trace of disdain, which was not related to the officials and those who were not benevolent.

"Today is my birthday, but I am not a person who likes to be lively, at this time in previous years, the prince will have a feast in Beijing, I can't resist his good intentions, every time. You also see, I am now pregnant, the prince was afraid that I was disturbed in the capital, so he specially sent me to Anyang to raise the fetus, he is now leading the troops outside, I am not going to feast on my birthday this year, but the night before yesterday I had a dream, there are immortals in the dream to guide, I want to accumulate virtue for the child in the womb, after thinking about it, or post to invite you to come, there is something to entrust. ”

Yi Yu said that she had something to support, but she was not polite at all, and she had a commanding look, which inevitably made the guests who had been waiting for her for a long time slander in their hearts, and their first impression of her changed directly from a beautiful woman to a pampered and proud woman.

was dissatisfied, few dared to show it on her face, not to mention that she was favored by King Wei between the lines, just with her belly, she had to make people smile and follow her words.

"The princess has something to trust, but tell me and others, as long as she is within her ability, the lower officials will not refuse."

This should be echoed, is the Anyang County Order, Deng Wenying, this person is a middle-aged Deng County Order, a little afraid of guilt, his current wife is a continuation of the string, from the scholarly family, I don't know where to wait for the reputation of the jade, the jade lives in the other courtyard these days, there is no less than her to come to the door to meet the word, but repeatedly refused, until today with the Deng County Order to the banquet, only to see the jade side.

At this time, Deng Wenying spoke, and his young lady sat beside him dignified and generously, looking at Yi Yu with curious eyes.

"Yes, please tell the princess, what did the immortal entrust?"

Deng Xianling seems to be very popular, as soon as he opened his mouth, there were pandering sounds one after another, waiting for Yi Yu to speak, but he was guessing in his heart what Princess Wei was selling.

"The immortal told me that it was said that the north was guilty of sun blindness today, and that he had an immortal friend who was going to come south, and asked me to treat him well, and if he succeeded, he would bless the party." Yi Yu was not red and panting and made up lies, God knows that the one she dreams the most at night is Li Tai, and as for the immortals, it is almost the same to call her to believe in ghosts.

But what she said is very good, and no one can not believe it, not to mention that this is a year of believing in God and reciting Buddha, after everyone looked at each other, they were moved, Deng Wenying asked again:

"In that case, did the immortal say, who is this nobleman?"

Yu Yu shook her head, "No." ”

"Male or female?"

"I don't know."

During the banquet, someone argued: "What kind of signs can you say?" ”

"Not either."

The guests frowned secretly, this has no name or surname, and I don't know what it looks like, I can't even figure out whether it's a man or a woman, so how to find it?

Dai Liang had been sitting impatient for a long time, and the little good temper left was worn out little by little, and seeing that Yu Yu had been talking nonsense for a long time, he couldn't help but laugh and sarcastically said:

"Hehe, it seems that our Anyang City is not blessed, and we have enjoyed the blessed dream of the princess."

Yi Yu glanced at him, took a small sip of the honey wine handed by Ping Hui, cleared his throat, and said:

"That's right, I invited you to come on my birthday, although the immortal in the dream did not mention the name of the nobleman, but told me that he was from the north, I then thought of the recent drought in the north, is not it the immortal said that the sun is blind, the victims flow south, maybe his immortal friend will be mixed in the north of the victims, has arrived in Anyang City."

Everyone was stunned, how could this be said and talked about, and it was on the victims?

After talking for a long time, Yi Yu finally brought the conversation to the topic:

"I want to be willing to make a hundred mistakes, not to miss one, the day before yesterday I woke up from a dream, so I arranged for people to give porridge and rice in the city, and today I invite you to come, the original intention is to borrow your strength, give alms in the city, and come together to help the victims in the north, build a house in the wasteland south of the city, and settle them down, in case I am fortunate enough to stay with this wandering immortal, and he will be favored to live, benefit one party, and it can be regarded as accumulating virtue for the child in my womb."

After Yi Yu finished speaking, her voice was dumb, and she didn't see Fang Cai's greeting, and she was not in a hurry, she was still looking at the guests in the garden.

Anyang City is so big and, about buying and selling disaster victims, who has no number in their hearts, she sits on the top, paying attention to their demeanor at the moment, who is frowning, who is weak-hearted, who is dodging, at a glance.

Wearing a jade bracelet and gold buckle, her left hand gently stroked her abdomen, her eyes slid casually across the crowd, inadvertently met a pair of frightened and stunned eyes, raised her eyebrows, then turned her gaze, put down the gold-cut wine bottle, and reached out to let Pinghui help her up.

"I'm tired of your helpers in this matter, I'm not feeling well, I'll leave the table first, there are still a lot of drinks, please use it slowly."

This can be regarded as imposing a task on people's heads, no one can refuse, ignoring the stunned of everyone, Yi Yu walked slowly to the halfway seat, as if he remembered something, stopped, half turned around, suddenly changed his face, and raised a sneer:

"I forgot to mention it, and I don't know if it's a rumor, but I heard that some people in the city are indiscriminately arresting disaster victims to work as workers, and they even dare to do things that force good people to become prostitutes. I will send people to patrol the city, and it is best that this is a lie, otherwise, whoever offends my noble man from the north, whether intentionally or unintentionally, once I find out, don't blame me for not being merciful. ”

With a word of warning, she brushed her sleeves away, leaving a room full of pale and pale guests.

Sun Lei consciously lowered his head, pinching the strength of the wine glass, others may not understand what she wants to do so much, but he already has a guess in his heart.

This woman, this woman really dares to meddle in the most unclear dirty thing in Anyang City, she really dares.
