119 State Banquet (1)

In the ancestral hall of the Xu Mansion, the three elders discussed in the secret room, and it seemed that Xu Qingruo was definitely not the only one who was puzzled about Yan Xu's return to his ancestors.

"Big brother, do you think this is really possible?"

The Great Elder was silent, but the Third Elder spoke: "Since Xu Fu, the Xu family has never had an atavistic person. It came out of nowhere, and it was a nine-year-old, which really hadn't happened before. “

"What the third brother said is that this atavistic power has awakened in a nine-year-old child, and it is true that it has never been there. But that totem is indeed the sign of an atavistic person, and there can be nothing wrong with the totem that comes out of the flesh and bones. The Great Elder touched his snow-white beard and said.

"Didn't the eldest brother also predict that the atavistic man would be born in the world? The second elder nodded and said, but the wrinkles on his brow had not been unraveled for a long time, all of this came so suddenly that there was an indescribable weirdness.

Feeling strange and frowning, not only the second elder, but the three elders all had the same doubts.

The second elder was anxious, and asked again: "Big brother, I really can't help it, all this is too strange." It stands to reason that the atavistic substitute has also had this before, and the power of the bloodline will find the most suitable one among the substitutes, and then slowly awaken. This power is so great, and there are also examples of not being able to withstand the power of this awakened bloodline and dying early. Usually the bloodline awakening is about fifteen or sixteen years old, and the exercise is intensified, so that the body can still withstand the power of this power. But how can this nine-year-old child's body withstand the power of the atavism?"

"The second brother is right, this girl is too strange. Besides, this girl is still from Taiping. The Third Elder nodded.

"What you think, why haven't I thought about it? Today's Xu family has no atavistic power, and it has been declining day by day. If the current Xu family wants to revive in the four countries, it has to rely on this atavistic person. The Great Elder stroked his beard and sighed. I can't explain all these things that don't make sense.

"When the sacrifice of the first spring comes, the whereabouts of everything will naturally be clear. "Today's Great Elder can only wait for this Spring Festival.

Even though he said this, the Great Elder was also uneasy in his heart. The totem behind the girl is true, if something goes wrong in the sacrifice, then the Xu family will be even more hopeless. At that time, where the Xu family will go, I'm afraid the three elders will no longer be able to decide!

Alas, it was a dilemma, but it was a decision that had to be made.

This is the first time that Taiping has used a state banquet to receive the envoys of the country of Qilu, and the significance of this country of Qilu to Taiping is self-evident.

On the way back, Feng Fusi invited Wang Cen and got into the same carriage. Feng Fusi opened his mouth and said, "Elder Wang, I really didn't expect that when you were promoted in front of the emperor, you actually supported the daughter of Lord Qiu. I thought. “

"Do you think that the old man will recommend Wang Jue? Hahaha. Wang Cen shook his head and said with a smile: "Although Wang Jue is a noble concubine and seems to be the only one who is favored, Wang Jue is missing something after all, and her temperament is too anxious." “

Then Lord Feng smiled and said, "It's a little bit less of Wang Yu's euphemistic intellectuality." Master Feng touched his beard and said, "This Wang Jue's enthusiasm, coupled with Wang Yu's knowledge, should be what all men dream of." It's a pity, it's two people after all. “

"yes, it's two people after all. Wang Cen muttered to himself, but the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up slightly. Perhaps, this is not a bad thing. Isn't it?

In addition to the imperial city, after walking for a while, the carriage stopped, and Feng Fusi's coachman lifted the curtain and said respectfully: "Lord Feng, the palace has arrived." “

"Master Feng, the old man will retire first. This state banquet tomorrow is enough for Lord Feng to be busy for a day. “

"Lord Wang is polite, this has a file to check, and it is not troublesome, but it is a little more cumbersome, Lord Wang. Please. “

"Please. “

The coachman hurriedly put down the stool that lifted his feet, and carefully helped Lord Wang get out of the carriage, and the carriage of the palace behind him also stopped behind, and Wang Yu also got out of the carriage with the support of the girl.

Wang Cen looked at Wang Yu, who was completely different from Wang Jue, and couldn't help but think.

That Lord Feng's words, after all, were still two people, and they had been surrounding Wang Cen's ears.

Long Xiang, who had returned to the Qiantian Palace, raised his hands and let Wang Xi beside him wait to change his clothes.

Long Xiang asked, "Wang Xi, in the Tai'an Palace today, have you heard what Lord Feng and Elder Wang said?"

The minion listened to him well. Wang Xi said.

"And what do you think?"

Wang Xi still lowered his head, and there was no slackness in the movements in his hands, and said, "What the emperor asked, is Concubine Yuan suitable for participating in the state banquet?"

"Yes. Long Xiang's answer was simple and clear.

"It's hard to say this minion. However, in the name of the harem, Concubine Yuan's mother is indeed not as good as Concubine Jue's. Wang Xi flexibly shuttled the red rope, and after a while, he hung the delicate jade pendant on Long Xiang's waist. At the same time as the words ended, Wang Xi took half a step back.

"Yes. Long Xiang replied impartially.

At this time, Wang Xi acted as if he had suddenly thought of something, and said, "Your Majesty, just now the person from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to ask, does this Heavenly Temple need to be resealed?"

Long Xiang's hand paused, his eyes darkened obviously, and said, "Seal it up." “

"Yes, Your Majesty. The minion then went back to the words of the Interior Division. “

"That's right. Long Xiang suddenly called Wang Xi, who was walking towards the door with his head down, and said: "You let people keep an eye on the harem, this tomorrow is the state banquet, before that, the widow doesn't want to make any mistakes." “

"Yes, Your Majesty. Wang Xi blessed his body and walked quickly towards the door again.

Wang Xi walked out of the palace gate and whispered a few words to the little eunuch outside, and the little eunuch blessed his body, put his hands in front of him, lowered his head slightly, and walked towards the door quickly.

After stepping on small steps, only outside the five palace gates, you can see that almost every palace person is in a hurry, coming and going, extremely busy, some carrying various colored fruit plates, and some carrying baskets the size of arm bends. Also, Taiping's state banquet is usually in the afternoon, which is barely a day to prepare for the state banquet, which is indeed nerve.

There are busy people, and naturally there are idle people, look, in the harem, a palace maid in the cloister seems to be inquiring about this, so she quickly ran towards the Liufang Palace.

Take a closer look, isn't that the female official Qin Yin beside Qiu Yuanyuan

I saw that

"Why is it in such a hurry? Qiu Yuanyuan looked at the piano sound with some panting and asked.

"Niangniang, I just went to inquire with the little eunuch in front of me, do you know, did I inquire about something?"

Qiu Yuanyuan was drawing a picture of a peony and asked, "What news?"

"Good news. Listen to the state banquet tomorrow, and invite the envoys of the country of Qilu. Qin Yin said with a smile.

"Hasn't this spread a long time ago?" Qiu Yuanyuan dipped in ink again and waved a few strokes.

"The state banquet naturally has to be attended by the queen, and now that the queen is mourning, the adults of the early dynasty said that the throne next to the emperor cannot be empty. So Lord Feng elected one person. Guess who?"

Qiu Yuanyuan stopped the pen in his hand and looked at her strangely. said: "Then Feng Fusi has always been close to Lord Wang Cen, so naturally it is Wang Jue?"

"If Lord Feng elects Wang Jue, this is good news for the mother. Of course, it's you. Qin Yin said excitedly.

Qiu Yuanyuan, who heard this, was not happy at all, she frowned, put down the pen in her hand, and said, "Lord Feng elected me?

"But, yes. Kotone said with a smile.

Qiu Yuanyuan didn't speak, but he thought to himself in his heart.

What exactly do they want to do?
