Chapter 111: A Grand Dinner

In the evening, together with Chen Miao, I sat in a gorgeous carriage.

The docile Tsing Yi horse dragged a small box carriage and galloped through the streets of the royal capital, and Chen Miao, who was wearing a black dress, crossed her beautiful Erlang legs and leaned on the bearskin seat, looking particularly feminine.

Sitting weakly next to Chen Miao's sister, Cheng Dong is very white and has never had any thoughts about this, but when he is with Chen Miao, he thinks she is really too charming......

The address of the meeting seemed to be in the manor of a certain nobleman, and when I arrived, I saw that on the square, the carriages of all kinds of big men were basically unable to fit down, and it seemed very crowded, and countless gentlemen and ladies and the like, with lazy and graceful expressions, got down from the carriage, and then walked to the hall where various musical instruments had been played with a calm smile.

It can be easily sensed just from the periphery, which is a drunken atmosphere.

Cheng Dong, who had never experienced such an occasion, secretly called it strange and very uncomfortable at the same time.

It seems to be a kind of etiquette, and in order to give Cheng Dong confidence, Chen Miao smiled beautifully, grabbed Cheng Dong's arm and led him forward. When you meet someone you know, you smile and nod your head, which is considered a greeting.

"Sister Miao. Cheng Dong asked in a low voice, "What kind of occasion is such a major ceremony, I'm afraid they are all big shots, is there anything big happening?"

Chen Miao didn't blame his rookie, and smiled, "Nothing happened, just to play." Such gatherings, in the upper circle of the imperial capital, can happen anytime and anywhere, without any reason. The purpose of these people's lives seems to be to hold similar gatherings in turn, which is a very bad atmosphere, and of course it also represents the wisdom of His Majesty the Great Emperor, and represents the wealth and stability of the dynasty. ”

"Oooh. Cheng Dong nodded obediently, indicating that he understood.

When they walked into the banquet hall, the eyes of all kinds of gentlemen and ladies who were whispering and communicating were attracted, and they all looked at Cheng Dong and Chen Miao, secretly amazed.

There is no need to doubt the charm of Chen Miao's eldest sister, Cheng Dong is also not weak, he has removed his belly full of secrets and tricks, looking at the shape, he is a white and cute handsome little student, harmless to humans and animals, and the kind that gives people absolute favor. Although he is only less than 17 years old and still a little young, he is also very dazzling, and walking with Chen Miao is definitely a golden boy and a girl.

"Well, Mentor Miao is here, thank you for coming to the meeting, thank you for giving face. ”

After seeing Chen Miao, a middle-aged man with a very elegant mustache walked up and greeted Chen Miao politely, after which he glanced at Cheng Dong with his eyes, looking a little dissatisfied. But no more, Cheng Dong also wore the school uniform of Jialan students. So it's not convenient for elegant men to say anything.

It is not an exaggeration to say that there are too many nobles in the Ming Dynasty, there are 20 million, especially in the capital. But many of the children of the countless powerful people walking around this hall have not been able to enter the five universities.

"Mentor Miao actually brought a little male companion I haven't seen before, don't you plan to introduce it to everyone?" The mustache held Chen Miao's hand and didn't want to let go, and then looked at Cheng Dong, his tone was slightly weird.

The male partner he mentioned does not mean a boyfriend, it is similar to a dance partner, gathering in this circle in the imperial capital, this kind of thing is too common, once there is a so-called male partner, then the default rule is to be polite, and other men will not come to harass. Otherwise, even if he is a married man, as long as he does not bring a dance partner, he will still be stared at by a group of people.

"This circle is just this virtue, this is the imperial capital, this is the drunken gold fan. Chen Miao shook off the mustache's hand, and then approached Cheng Dong and whispered.

The handsome and elegant mustache was not used to being treated like this, so he looked at the hand that was thrown away by Chen Miao with a little embarrassment, then smiled, brought up a glass of fruit wine, and took a sip of it.

"Lord Liu Zhong, please forgive me, there are a few acquaintances over there, I'll go over and say hello. Chen Miao said, hooking Cheng Dong's arm to deliberately avoid this guy.

Liu Zhong nodded slightly elegantly, and after Chen Miao turned around, he stared at Chen Miao's beautiful figure and curves viciously, as if he wanted to swallow people into it.

While walking, Chen Miao approached Chengdong and said in a low voice: "That guy just now is Liu Zhong, the deputy minister of the military department, and his son is also a genius, in the Royal Academy, his name is Liu Tianhua, have you heard of it?"

Hearing that it was Liu Tianhua's father, Cheng Dong looked strange and thought of the matter between him and Liu Tianhua.

"Looks like you're drooling, okay, you go get something to eat, I'll go over there and say hello to a few acquaintances and I'll come and accompany you. Chen Miao patted Cheng Dong on the shoulder, took a glass of fruit wine and walked over.

Chengdong was indeed hungry, so he went to the buffet table in the center to eat something, there were really too many delicacies, and he wanted to hide some and take them back for Yaya and Xiaotian to eat......

Another pair of golden boys and girls walked in, attracting the attention of almost everyone and winning applause. It seems that it is the handsome Liu Tianhua who came with the beautiful and noble Mu Rina.

Wearing a noble dress, Liu Tianhua walked forward with Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess, greeting the elders in a graceful manner.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for making this place so vibrant. Lord Liu Zhong respectfully saluted Mu Rina.

Mu Rina didn't really care, but looked in a strange direction.

Liu Tianhua followed Mu Rina's gaze with curiosity, and saw that Cheng Dong's kid was eating and drinking at the buffet table, as if he was reincarnated as a hungry ghost, he was annoyed and disdainful.

Immediately, Liu Tianhua said in a strange tone: "Hehe, what a place not to meet, His Highness really likes him, let's go over and meet?"

Mu Rina didn't pay attention to his tone because she was distracted, and nodded: "Okay, let's go see you." After speaking, regardless of Liu Zhong's courtesy, he carried the wine glass and passed.

"You ......" Liu Tianhua was almost angry to death, helpless, she is His Royal Highness, Liu Tianhua didn't dare to attack even if he was angry, but he hated it even more in his heart.

Let's go to the nearest place, without waiting for Mu Rina to speak, Liu Tianhua said coldly: "Who approved you to come here, do you think it's a great student of Jialan? This is my house, do you know, look at what you think, have you never eaten such food in your life, like a starving ghost?"

Cheng Dong was startled, turned around and saw that there was still a lot of food in his mouth, so he muttered: "I'm sorry, I really haven't eaten these things, I'm low-born, I really can't compare with you." ”

Because Liu Tianhua's scolding was too loud, it attracted the attention of the people around him, and when he heard Cheng Dong say this, everyone looked strange.

Mu Rina frowned and said, "Tianhua, why are you so stingy, since it's a banquet, it's nothing for people to come to eat, aren't you just letting people eat it?"
