Chapter 143 The Liu Lady and the Cat Demon
Today is the first birthday of the little prince of King Jingfu...
And Zhou Guifei is not only the concubine of the dynasty, but also the biological mother of King Jing, the grandmother of the little prince, naturally different from other guests who went to the banquet, and teased her grandson in the inner hall of King Jing's mansion early...
Zhu Wenjing went to the inner house to see the mother concubine coaxing the child, and said with a smile: "Mother, hand over Yi'er to the nurse, the banquet is about to start." ”
Liu Heng'e, who was following him, was holding a black cat in her arms, and when she saw Zhou Guifei's eyes, she greeted with a smile: "Daughter-in-law Liu Xian'e, I have seen my mother." ”
"Auntie is getting more and more beautiful."
Zhou Guifei handed over her grandson to the nurse on the side, and then sighed and smiled: "After giving birth, the body is weak and weak, and you must recuperate well, otherwise the old block...
Just like this palace, he was only fourteen years old when he was born, and he couldn't recuperate well, and now he is old and decrepit, and the years are not forgiving~"
"The mother is serious."
Liu Heng'e chuckled and said: "To put it mildly, with the posture of the mother's concubine, if you go out with your daughter-in-law, people who don't know will definitely think that the concubine is the daughter-in-law's sister." ”
"Hehe~"
Zhou Guifei chuckled a few times, then looked at the black cat in her arms and asked, "When did Xi'e raise such a beautiful cat?" ”
"It's not raised."
Liu Xian'e touched the black cat in her arms and said: "It was raining a few days ago, and when I went out, I happened to see it, and when I saw that no one claimed it, I picked it up and raised it at home..."
"It's gratifying..."
Zhou Guifei stretched out her hand and touched the black cat, and then seemed to think of something, and said: "Didn't you say that you are going to the banquet, Jing'er, you and Xi'e are the hosts, but don't make the guests wait for a long time." ”
"Uh-huh, mother please..."
With that, the three of them went to the front hall where the feast was held.
The three of them chatted all the way, and Zhou Guifei seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked: "By the way, Jing'er, did Xu Boqing, the superintendent of the West Factory, ever go to the banquet by appointment?" ”
"Xu Boqing?"
Zhu Wenjing thought of the two people on the list who had not arrived, shook his head and sneered: "He is the only one who should have come. ”
“……”
Zhou Guifei frowned slightly and said: "In recent days, the momentum of the West Factory has become more and more popular among the hundred officials, and Xu Boqing, as the supervisor of the West Factory, is also a little busy.
I haven't been in Cining Palace for the last few days.
Yesterday, the palace went to Cining Palace in the name of visiting the Queen Mother, and I wanted to remind him, but I didn't see anyone in the palace when it was dark, maybe there was something important to delay. ”
"It's okay, left and right are just eunuchs."
Zhu Wenjing waved his hand disapprerovingly, and then glanced at Liu Heng'e beside him.
secretly thought that as long as the 'immortals' made a move and silently solved Zhu Wenjue, the position of the prince would definitely be his own...
"Jing'er, this palace knows that you have great ambitions."
Knowing her son Mo Ruomu, Zhou Guifei saw that his expression was a little cold, and said as if admonishing: "But Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Xichang all belong directly to Your Majesty, and your foundation is unstable, but don't take revenge because people didn't come to the banquet." ”
"The mother is too worried..."
Zhu Wenjing also knew that his mother wanted to go wrong, but he didn't mean to explain much, he just shook his head with a smile and said, "Please also invite your mother to the table..."
"Hmm..."
Zhou Guifei was faintly worried in her heart, but when she saw that her child looked confident, she didn't say anything.
With the arrival of King Jing, the princess, and Zhou Guifei, the atmosphere at the banquet became more and more enthusiastic, and they all got up to say hello...
The second prince Zhu Wenjue is no exception, with a humble and kind attitude, a degree of advance and retreat in words, coupled with that gentle and elegant temperament, even Zhou Guifei has to admit that this son is better than her own scenery...
As the three members of the main family are seated...
It also announced the official start of the banquet...
Zhu Wenjing poured a full wine and got up, just about to say some speeches and go through the process, but suddenly heard the shouting of the porter outside: "The superintendent of the West Factory ~ Xu Boqing ~ Sui Li Longfeng and Ming Yupei are a pair ~"
“……”
The people who came to the banquet were stunned when they heard it.
Song Mingde's expression was a little surprised; Liu Yuan squinted his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking...
And some of the people of the 'Three Masters Party' were faintly impatient, thinking that this eunuch's shelf was inevitably too big.
Zhou Guifei nodded thoughtfully, secretly thinking that it must be because the West Factory was busy with official business and delayed the hour...
She is a woman who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and she wastes time and effort to attract talents for her son, and now Xu Boqing has come by appointment, and she looks better on her face...
And Zhu Wenjing's speech was mentioned in his throat, but because of this shout, he swallowed it hard...
'Xu Boqing... West Factory...'
He seemed to have thought of something, and glanced at Liu Yuan and Song Mingde in the banquet with a slight movement of his eyes.
One of them is the overseer of the East Factory, and the other is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, including Xu Boqing's West Factory, all of which directly belong to the emperor.
Song Mingde's attitude was ambiguous, and Liu Yuan avoided talking about it, the two of them relied on the power and background in their hands, and they were not in a hurry to make a choice at all...
And now that the eldest brother Zhu Hong has been abolished, the 'Shangxian' has promised to solve Zhu Wenjue silently, and the position of the prince is already in his bag...
It's time to plan something more long-term...
Zhu Wenjing's eyes moved slightly, and then he put on a posture of a distinguished guest coming to the door, and said with self-reproach: "This king actually forgot that such an immortal-like character as Lord Xu did not arrive, so he held a banquet first, bad things and bad things~"
Then he hurriedly left his position and went out...
The people who are qualified to come here to the banquet are all old fritters who have been in the officialdom for many years, and when they saw him say those words and the gesture of welcoming him out, they were all thinking about something with a slight gaze...
Seeing this, Zhou Guifei also frowned slightly, and then seemed to think of it, and glanced at Song Mingde and Liu Yuan, with a faint worry in her expression.
The words are divided into two ends...
After Xu Boqing left the palace, he first went to Yuqing Street, and casually picked a pair of jade pendants as a congratulatory gift, and when he arrived at King Jing's Mansion, he saw that the firecrackers had been let go, and he knew that he was late.
But he didn't care...
Thinking that he wasn't here for dinner anyway, and he wasn't Zhu Wenjing's person, he would go in first.
He also let the porter pay the account.
I was just about to go in for a feast...
Zhu Wenjing was already greeted with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Distinguished guest, distinguished guest, Lord Xu took time out of his busy schedule to participate in Xiao'er's first birthday, and this king couldn't help but be overjoyed. ”
“……”
Xu Boqing was slightly stunned when he saw this.
When he met on the way to the palace before, although Zhu Wenjing's words were polite, he sat on the sedan chair and spoke to himself in a condescending attitude...
I don't know why the current posture is so low.
He had doubts, so he secretly took up the Tianmu Law Eye and looked at it, but after seeing it, he was shocked, and he actually saw some demonic energy on Zhu Wenjing's body!
Although the demonic spirit is thin...
But it's really demonic!
There are monsters in King Jing's mansion!?
He pretended to be 'flattered', and arched his hand and said: "Xichang is busy with official business, Xu unconsciously delayed the time to go to the banquet, and invited Wang Ye Haihan." ”
"Xu Du is serious."
Zhu Wenjing put on a guilty posture and said: "There are many people coming and going in the palace today, and this king is busy and dizzy, and he didn't notice that the overseer had not arrived, so he held a banquet first, which really shouldn't be, and I hope the overseer will forgive me." ”
"The prince has tormented Xu."
"Alas~ Lord Xu, don't be polite."
The two of them said polite words to each other with their own thoughts.
"How can anyone stand at a feast?"
Zhu Wenjing hurriedly stretched out his hand and signaled: "It's just a banquet, everyone hasn't drunk the first glass of wine yet, Lord Xu can drink it to the fullest today."
"Lord Wang, please~"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Xu Boqing saw that the courtiers at the banquet looked at him with strange expressions, and thought that there might be demon cultivators hidden in this Jingwang Mansion, so he only glanced around and didn't say anything...
When he saw Zhou Guifei on the chairman, when he saw that the other party bowed slightly, he also smiled in return...
When she saw the Liu girl she met when she sneaked into King Jing's Mansion last time, and the black cat she was holding in her arms, her eyes couldn't help but stare slightly, and then her eyes swept over again, and she approached as if nothing had happened.
When I just returned to Beijing outside, I saw Zhu Wenjing leaving the mansion on the way, so I sneaked into King Jing's mansion on a whim, wanting to find out Deng Jian's whereabouts and solve it easily.
I never thought that Deng Jian didn't find it...
But I met a good-looking Liu girl, and the other party was still pestering herself to feed, if she didn't drink, she almost got drunk...
Now, the Liu girl in front of her is still the Liu girl, but she is not the Liu girl who was fed before.
Moreover, she is holding a cat demon in her arms!
Under the eyes of Tianmu Law, a cat demon with a different child appeared behind Liu's girl, one eye was golden and green like amber, and one eye was blue like a gem, which was extremely demonic and evil.
The most important thing is that the appearance of the manifested cat demon is exactly the same as the black cat she is holding in her arms!
One person and one cat, just like one!
