Chapter 702: Worries Before the Banquet
Exhaling, inhaling, Dongfang Xu tried his best to suppress himself, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "So, Senior Brother Yuan fainted in the toilet that time, broke his head and suffered from the wind and cold, and almost lost his life with tetanus." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and Senior Brother Jueyuan can eat a peanut to eat internal bleeding, you did it? ”
Yutong said sullenly: "Who let one of them wronged the son steal things, and the rod beats the son, not only does not heal the son, but also let the son take the injury to do coolies." If one is not given to the son, he will eat. I'll kill them like that, and they've been torturing Childe all the time! ”
Dongfang Xu knew that Yutong was also angry for him, so he would do such a thing. Although the two suffered a lot at the time, nothing happened anyway.
"Don't do these pointless things in the future!"
"What do you mean by something that doesn't make sense?" Yutong looked up and saw Dongfang Xu's accusatory eyes, and immediately changed his words: "Got it!"
After a while, Yu Tong said, "But Childe, don't we really need to prepare anything for our departure this time?"
Dongfang Xu glanced back at the carriage and said, "Not for the time being."
Dongfang Xu's glance made Yu Tong understand something, and he stopped talking.
As soon as he returned to Cheng's mansion, the housekeeper of Cheng's mansion told Dongfang Xu that Cheng Jianhui was waiting for him in the study.
Thinking of what happened during the day, Mrs. Cheng originally planned to go with Dongfang Xu, but was rejected by Dongfang Xu.
"You're looking for me?" As soon as he entered the study, Dongfang Xu said to Cheng Jianhui.
Cheng Jianhui said, "In three days, it will be Chinese New Year's Eve." According to the rules, the ministers of the court can bring their children into the palace to participate in the banquet. Since there are some things that cannot be changed, I hope you do not reject the decision I made this time. ”
Although Cheng Jianhui said it very sincerely, Dongfang Xu always felt that there was some conspiracy in it. Dongfang Xu believed that as long as he was careful, they would not be able to calculate him: "I know, I will go then."
Cheng Jianhui thought that he had to waste his tongue in order to persuade Dongfang Xu, but he didn't expect him to agree so happily, but he was a little surprised.
Looking at Cheng Jianhui's appearance, Dongfang Xu deliberately said: "Looking at what my father means, it seems that he doesn't want me to agree, so it's better for me not to go."
Cheng Jianhui was afraid that Dongfang Xu would really change his mind, so he hurriedly said: "Where do I mean that, of course I want you to go!"
Seeing Cheng Jianhui's anxious look, Dongfang Xu said, "I'm joking." Don't worry, I'll go if I say I'll go, if it's okay, I'm a little tired today, so I'll go back and rest first. ”
Cheng Jianhui saw that Dongfang Xu was really a little tired, thinking that he was really tired: "It's okay, you can accompany your mother more in the past few days, and she won't be able to see you in the future, leaving what regrets you will have."
"I will." After Dongfang Xu finished speaking, he walked out of Cheng Jianhui's study without even saying hello.
After Dongfang Xu left, Cheng Jianhui said to the scenery outside the window: "You forced me to do this, Nine Princes, don't blame me then, I'm also for your good."
After Dongfang Xu returned to his room, he really lay down on the bed and closed his eyes to rest. If you look closely, you can see from Dongfang Xu's brows that he is not asleep at all, just with his eyes closed.
Dongfang Xu only felt that he was so tired now. It's obviously a father-son relationship, but it has to be guarded against like a snake and scorpion. When did their relationship first turn like this? I don't know if there will be a chance to go back to the past in the future.
Three days went by in the blink of an eye. Dongfang Xu helped Mrs. Cheng out of the gate of Cheng's mansion together, and they were followed by Yutong and a clever maid.
Dongfang Xu frowned slightly when he saw a carriage and two sedan chairs carried by four people outside.
After Mrs. Fucheng got into the carriage, Dongfang Xu said to Cheng Jianhui, who was waiting for them outside: "I faint in the sedan chair, so I will take the carriage with my mother." said that without waiting for Cheng Jianhui to respond, he got into the carriage.
In fact, as early as when she saw the arrangement outside, Mrs. Cheng expected this, so she had already placed a cushion for Dongfang Xu opposite where she was sitting.
Cheng Jianhui looked at the carriage, looked at the sky, and finally withdrew a sedan chair.
In the carriage, Mrs. Cheng just said to Dongfang Xu before leaving: "Don't worry, with your mother here, you won't let him do anything to hurt you." He didn't speak again.
Although Dongfang Xu made all the preparations, he couldn't settle down for some reason, and he always felt that something big would happen tonight.
They didn't leave late, so when they arrived at the palace, there were no ministers with their families. Father-in-law Pan greeted the ministers at the gate of the palace early.
As soon as Pan's father-in-law saw Cheng Jianhui get off the sedan chair, he greeted him. After seeing Dongfang Xu helping Mrs. Cheng get out of the carriage, he said, "General Cheng, Mrs. Cheng, nine, Cheng Gongzi, you are here!"
Cheng Jianhui said: "Xu'er, he doesn't want to see too many people, so we came early."
Pan Gonggong said: "It seems that Cheng Gongzi still has more experience and experience!" But today, our family will not be embarrassed by Cheng Gongzi. Wait a minute, our family will arrange for Gongzi to rest in a quiet place first, and when the banquet starts, our family will let Cheng Gongzi be notified. ”
Dongfang Xu said: "Gonggong Xie is compassionate!"
Pan Gonggong said: "Yes, our family will take General Cheng, Mrs. Cheng, and Cheng Gongzi in!"
Only then did Cheng Jianhui interject: "There is Lao Pan's father-in-law!"
When Cheng Jianhui and the others went to the banquet hall, Pan's father-in-law was also very trustworthy to help Dongfang Xu find a quiet and elegant small courtyard for him to rest.
It wasn't until night fell, and all the light outside was shrouded in the night, that Dongfang Xu walked towards the banquet hall with Yutong.
At this time, the banquet hall was already full of ministers and their families. Because of the hazy night, and the fact that many people had followed their head of the house many times to attend such a banquet. So people who are familiar and know all get together and talk.
Because of Dongfang Jue's incident, Cheng Jianhui is also a great hero, and he is already a general, so his position is very high, and Dongfang Xu can see it at a glance.
Because of Dongfang Xu's quietness, many people didn't notice that there were two more people in the banquet hall.
Others didn't see it, but Cheng Jianhui had already seen it, but he was talking to someone at the time. The official's position was not low, so Cheng Jianhui did not leave anyone behind and return to his own position when he saw Dongfang Xu. On the contrary, after seeing Dongfang Xu, Mrs. Cheng hurriedly said goodbye to the female relatives who were chatting with her, and returned to her position to talk to Dongfang Xu.
Because of Mrs. Cheng's return, many people discovered Dongfang Xu.
When he was very young, Dongfang Xu was sent away by Cheng Jianhui to learn martial arts, and almost no one knew Dongfang Xu among the ministers of the DPRK and China. Everyone just guessed that Dongfang Xu was the son of Cheng Fu.
Dongfang Xu sat in a relatively dark place, so no one saw his appearance, Wu Yuting used to think he was familiar but didn't recognize it, because although she was Dongfang Jue's side concubine, she rarely saw Dongfang Rui, and she didn't have a deep impression of Dongfang Rui. But the ministers are different, Dongfang Xu and Dongfang Rui are seven or eight points similar, if the ministers see him and don't doubt it, it's strange. (To be continued.) )
