Chapter 73: My People

Both of them are looking for ghosts? Shen Meijing was speechless, then it can be stopped tonight, I was afraid that these two masters would also quarrel at the dinner, but since this is the case, it is just so that they don't have to go.

She didn't tell Song Liangchen about the dinner, first, she was afraid that she would mess up, and she would be blamed if she didn't say anything, and secondly, this was also a banquet between women, and he couldn't come if he knew about it, and it was too late to tell him afterwards.

Seeing that the hour was almost up, Meijing took Ning Chun'er out with her. The banquet was held in Acacia Garden, and the flower pots in the courtyard were removed, leaving a large open space. The maids came and went, carrying tables, chairs and benches, and arranging tableware.

Ning Chun'er was slightly surprised when she saw the scene outside: "This is the case?" ”

Yandi banquets are mostly a small table per person, the host sits in the middle, and the rest are arranged on both sides. As a result, in this Acacia Garden, all the small tables were surrounded into a big circle.

"That's good." Shen Jingjing said: "There is a lot less trouble. ”

How can there be less trouble? Ning Chun'er pursed her lips: "Everyone is used to the banquet arrangement in Yandi, the first time you met the general's wife, is it more reliable to choose a conservative way?" ”

"Not necessarily." Meijing shook her head: "This has my own intentions." ”

Ning Chun'er choked slightly, she always felt that the princess was a little arbitrary, and those generals and wives had their own small groups, which were also very difficult to deal with, at least before the princess was established, no one had ever been able to invite them to the mansion together.

But seeing that the princess was so determined, she couldn't say anything.

One after another, carriages stopped at the gate of Shizi's Mansion, and Shen Meijing stayed in the house, waiting for the people outside to get louder and louder, and when she estimated that the people were almost there, she tidied up her clothes and got up.

The ladies stood in the courtyard and talked about it.

"I heard that the princess of this world... Isn't it the slave from before, replaced by someone from the capital? An stood aside, wearing a bright red embroidered peony dress. As soon as I turned the main room, I couldn't wait to put on red, and the smile on my face was very bright.

The Yun family next to her glanced at her, pouted and said, "Mrs. Yu's voice is bright, and she can still know these things." We don't know anything. ”

An Shi smiled and was about to speak, but Wei Siying, the main room of Yan Zhao Admiral Wen Feiqing, said: "An Shi has turned positive, but I heard that your daughter is still a concubine in this world's mansion, speaking of which, she is also a concubine now." ”

As soon as these words came out, the smile on An's face immediately disappeared.

This Wei is like this, although she plays with everyone on weekdays, she always reveals other people's scars, and her words are not pleasant, that is, her status is high, otherwise a group of people would have turned against her.

After taking a breath, An turned his head and wanted to sit down, and Wei said again: "I don't know if this place is to sit according to my own identity, or according to my daughter's status in the mansion?" An's Clan, you're afraid you should sit on the edge, right? ”

Several ladies next to her all looked at Wei's, and after being together for a long time, they knew that she was not malicious and could be regarded as approachable, so everyone didn't say anything, and glanced at An's sympathetically.

"There may not be a place on the edge of this seat today." A laughing voice came from behind: "Ladies, take a seat." ”

Everyone followed the sound and turned around, and saw a person coming out of the main house, wearing a carmine-colored chest-length dress, with wide sleeves and shoulders on the top, the placket was rolled with gold, the skirt was embroidered with a phoenix, and the phoenix bun was combed.

But this person's face was covered with a light veil.

The people present were all elders, and they only saluted with their chins, Wei Shi looked up at her twice, and said with a light smile: "The princess has a pair of clear and moving eyes, why did she cover her face?" Are you afraid of being beautiful and stabbing us old people? ”

Shen Meijing said with a smile: "The junior has a wound on his face, and it is not suitable to see people, so he can only cover his face." The ladies are all full of beauty, and it is too late for the younger generations to envy them. ”

People who can talk are liked everywhere, and the first impression of the ladies on her is relatively good, and they are no longer embarrassed, and they sit down one after another.

The advantage of forming a circle around the table is that she doesn't have to arrange seats because of her status, and she can sit among them herself, so as not to make the juniors sit high and make people unhappy, which is more secure than the usual Yandi banquet form.

Wei and An sat next to Shen Meijing on the left and right, and then there was Ning Chun'er's mother, Yun, and the wives of several thousand households in the army. There weren't many people, there were eight or nine in total, and the rest said that they were not feeling well and would come back another day.

The musician next to him played music, and he chose a light and bright tune, which also made people feel good when they listened to it.

"The first time I came to see the princess, I would like to thank you for taking care of my family Chun'er." Yun said with a smile: "Chun'er often praises you in family letters, saying that you are kind and generous, and when I see you today, you are really a beautiful girl." ”

An also said: "My family Mengshuang also said the same, saying that it is rare to have a master like the princess who can take care of things, not harsh, and considerate." ”

Meijing smiled, and was about to speak, when Wei said, "But how did I hear that the house just killed two maids recently?" This has never happened before. ”

Everyone was slightly stunned, and Meijing said: "The maid committed a crime, and was used by the prince to set up family rules, and the house slave beat him with more strength, so he didn't hold it and left." The younger generation thinks it's a good thing, after all, the prince will rule Yandi in the future, and it is not easy to establish authority if he is too benevolent. ”

A few ladies nodded, and Wei said: "It's still early to say that Liwei, the prince is only nineteen years old this year, and he is thirty years old, and he still has a lot of days to be presumptuous." ”

The topic was successfully introduced into the right track, and Shen Meijing didn't mind that this person didn't speak well, and said with a smile while letting the house slave cloth vegetables: "Ordinary people are thirty, but it is different to stay in the Shizi's Mansion, the Shizi has been studying military books since he was eight years old, and he has learned all kinds of martial arts, although he is only nineteen years old, he is also worthy of the thirty major duties." ”

"To have such a virtuous help as the princess, the prince is really blessed." An said with a smile: "Listening to my master, the prince is also very hard working and serious in the army. ”

The words are good, everyone here is a family member of the Zuo Army, how the prince is in the army, they have naturally heard of it, presumably the princess today's dinner is also to close the relationship and pave the way for the prince.

The starting point is good, but except for a few families in the backyard of the daughter's son, the rest of the ladies don't plan to buy it, after all, what their own master wants to do, they are not easy to intervene, and there is no benefit.

However, the food in Shizifu is quite delicious.

Everyone has a small abacus in their hearts, and some ladies have already thought about answering, so they waited for the princess to ask them for help, and then refused.

As a result, although the banquet kept talking about things related to the prince, the princess didn't mention asking them to help at all, and even praised the prince so much, and the rest were all praised by the An family and the Yun family next to them.

What's her idea? Everyone muttered in their hearts and exchanged glances with the people next to them.

The atmosphere of the dinner was very harmonious, and it also made people feel comfortable, and there was no utilitarianism at all. Shen Meijing didn't rush to achieve anything, and she didn't even say much, but occasionally two sentences could guide everyone to chat, and there was never a cold time.

Seeing that the things on the table were almost eaten, Meijing smiled: "The juniors met the ladies for the first time, and the gifts were naturally prepared, which were not valuable, but they were also the hearts of the juniors, and I also asked the ladies to smile." ”

Jinyi and Yushi came up with a group of maids and gave nine gift boxes with identical appearances to the ladies.

"The princess has a heart." Yun said with a smile: "Thanks to today's hospitality, you even want to give us gifts." ”

"It should." Shen Meijing said: "I hope that all the ladies will have time to come to the house for a walk, and the younger generations will not be lonely." ”

is neither humble nor arrogant, the princess's shelf is there, and the modest attitude of the younger generation is also there, and she is not specially welcomed, but she can also dominate this dinner. When all the ladies left, they all felt as if Shen Meijing had done nothing, but she gave people a good impression inexplicably.

Ning Chun'er watched the entire banquet coldly and smiled happily.

Shen Meijing, she really didn't look away.

Song Liangchen was sitting with Cheng Beiwang in the No. 1 room of Tianzi, the largest Qinglou in Hengcheng, next to a few small people, all of whom were already half drunk.

"Come, this cup of toast to the prince." Ye Qingcheng, the second son of the Ye family, raised his wine glass with a smile and said: "I know that you married the wrong princess, and you must be unhappy in your heart, but brother to tell the truth, fortunately you didn't marry that Jiang Xinyue." ”

Song Liangchen snorted and kicked over directly: "How did you speak?" ”

"I know you don't like to hear it." Ye Qingcheng laughed and said: "But if you ask Beiwang, do you want to ask Liu Ergongzi, how many people sincerely bless you and Jiang Xinyue?" ”

Cheng Beiwang raised his hands high, half-squinted his eyes and said, "I don't bless, I didn't go on the wedding day, but my gift was delivered!" ”

Liu Yanyuan next to him was still sober, shook his head and said: "I told you early in the morning that the father and daughter of the Jiang family are not good things, you were carried away by love and didn't listen, now it can be regarded as an eye-opener, and a widow is always better than that kind of woman." ”

Widow...... Song Liangchen smiled, twisted the empty wine glass and said, "This widow is amazing..."

"What's the wrong thing?" Ye Qingcheng leaned over with a snort of wine and said with a smile: "I can actually let the dignified prince open his mouth to praise her." ”

"She......" Song Liangchen leaned back in his chair, lowered his eyes and said: "She can do anything, go to heaven and earth, and can do anything." ”

"Oh?" The two people next to him suddenly became interested, and one of them set up Song Liangchen on the side: "Then it just so happens that we are almost drunk, why don't we go to your house and have a look?" ”

Cheng Beiwang drunkenly followed: "Go, go, I haven't seen the princess for a long time." ”

"What do you see..."Song Liangchen pushed them away: "That's the princess, my person." ”
