Chapter 046: Rongqing Hall's Feast
Jia Cong hurried all the way to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.
At this time, people such as Niu Jizong, Xie Kun, Qiu Liang and others have already reached some time.
Seeing Jia Cong change his clothes and come over, Qiu Liang suddenly smiled and said, "I just said that he went home, if you don't believe it, you have to bet with me, and let me earn a meal of Cuiyun Mansion for nothing!" ”
Rolled his eyes.
Xie Kun said: "It's just a meal of Cuiyun Building, look at you proudly!" ”
Chen Ruiwen next to him smiled and arched the fire, "He's not proud of that Cuiyun Building, he's proud of winning you Xie Kun!" ”
Xie Kun was angry.
Niu Jizong smiled and came out to play a round, "It's been an hour since Marquis Zhongjing entered the palace, and I think it's almost time to come out, let's go to the door to greet him?" ”
Everyone nodded, "Go together!" ”
Before leaving the gate of the Governor's Mansion of the Left Army, Jia Cong saw a group of people coming not far away, led by a tall and thin general in his early thirties, with a faint shadow of Jia's mother on his appearance.
Just one eye.
Jia Cong knew that this person was Zhongjing Marquis Shi Ding.
Sure enough, when Niu Jizong and others saw the comer, they all greeted them, and Jia Cong also followed behind everyone, bowed in the past, and called "Uncle Cousin".
Shi Ding has rarely been to Jia's house, so he is naturally very unfamiliar with Jia Cong.
At this time, I suddenly heard the name in Jia Cong's mouth, and looked at the regular clothes on my body that commanded the three grades, as well as the slightly green face, and couldn't help but be a little dazed.
After a shake, Shi Ding hurriedly reached out to help Jia Cong.
said apologetically: "I have rarely gone out, and the children of my relatives at home have not seen much, but I can't tell which family you are from, forgive me!" ”
Shi Ding was generous, saying that he didn't know Jia Cong.
called Niu Jizong and the others to laugh.
"It seems that Shi Hou has indeed not been to his aunt's house for two years, and now he doesn't even dare to recognize his nephew standing in front of him!"
"It's rare to see Shi Hou's gaffe, and it's really worth the trip today!"
“……”
Listening to the words of Niu Jizong and others, Shi Ding was surprised: "You are actually from Rongguo Mansion?" ”
Jia Cong nodded and saluted again.
smiled: "My nephew Jia Cong has seen my cousin!" ”
glanced at Jia Cong in disbelief.
Shi Ding also laughed and said: "I have rarely had the opportunity to go to the mansion to meet the old lady in person over the years, and I don't even know that you are such an outstanding nephew, it really shouldn't be!" ”
In the words, there is more intimacy than before.
It's just that.
Shi Ding's voice of "shouldn't", most of them are that Jia Cong can be in a high-ranking position at a young age, otherwise when he is replaced, I am afraid that it will be common not to go to Jia's house for a few more years.
And where is "shouldn't"?
"Shi Hou has been to Rongfu two years ago, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see Brother Cong!"
Niu Jizong said with a smile: "Because the Tatars went south a year ago, after he beheaded the generals outside the city of Datong Mansion and captured the flag, he led his troops to relieve the siege of Taiyuan, and even the deputy generals under the command of Ji Lun were beheaded. ”
Xie Kun added: "Now he is the real power guerrilla in command of the Jianrui Battalion!" ”
Shi Ding was taken aback again.
looked at Jia Cong and said: "I know about your killing of the general and capturing the flag in Datong Mansion, I don't want to even kill Ji Lun's deputy general by you, hiss......"
Then he smiled wryly.
"Compared to you, I, the general of the defeated army, am not worth mentioning at all!"
Hear the words.
Everyone looked at Shi Ding, who was sighing, and they were a little silent.
Do you say yes?
Is it really suitable for you, a person who has only earned the title of Marquis of Wu by virtue of his military exploits, in front of our group of people who attack the lord?
Looking at everyone's eyes, something gradually became wrong.
Shi Ding immediately reacted, laughed twice, and said: "I bother everyone to work hard to welcome me here, in this way, I invite everyone to Cuiyun Tower tonight, we won't get drunk and won't return!" ”
"I think Shi Hou should change it to another day."
Qiu Liang next to him stopped with a smile, "You haven't come back yet, Lao Xie has already told us that he will invite the big guy to Cuiyun Tower tonight." ”
Xie Kun, "......"
Seeing this, Shi Ding said from the goodness: "Since Lao Xie is the host today, then I will change it tomorrow!" ”
"Shi Hou is atmospheric!"
The crowd praised.
Xie Kun's eyes widened on the side, what about me?
I also invite everyone to Cuiyun Building, why do you shout Shi Ding's atmosphere, I am a pure injustice, not worth mentioning?
There is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not!
…………
and the next day.
Rongguo Mansion invited the old relatives who had been appointed before the year.
There are not only noble families such as Zhenguo Mansion and Qi State Mansion, which are also the founding lineage, but also important relatives such as Baoling Marquis Mansion, Zhongjing Marquis Mansion, Wang Family, Xue Family, and Qin Family.
Because most of the visitors were ordered by various provinces, the two ladies of Jia Mu and Xing Wang were also received according to very high standards.
There is Jia's mother in front of the wind, and the ladies in various provinces are all dressed in colorful colors today.
Time.
Rongqing Hall is really full of flowers, competing for beauty!
As for the officials and guests of each family, they were arranged to have a banquet in the Ning Guo Mansion next door.
It is worth mentioning.
Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, who has rarely attended the banquet in person, also appeared in Ning Guo's mansion, which surprised everyone.
In the Rongqing Hall.
Everyone first congratulated each other on the New Year, and then sat down in order, Jia Mu and Xing Wang The two women accompanied everyone to laugh, and Lin Zhixiao's family led all the housekeepers and daughters-in-law to serve wine and food outside the bamboo curtain.
For a while, the guests were happy.
Aunt Xue and other female dependents who had no official status sat at the bottom.
During the banquet, Aunt Xue looked at the young ladies standing behind the orders in front of her from time to time, and then looked at Xue Baochai behind her, and her heart sank a little more.
Compared with appearance, Aunt Xue feels that her family has a good chance of winning, but if it is compared to her family background......
Behind him, Xue Baochai looked at the above Jia Mu and the edicts of the various prefectures talking and laughing, and a trace of deep envy flashed in his eyes, but he saw the young ladies standing behind the edicts again.
But my heart can't help but be a little gloomy.
……
After the meal, Jia Mu invited everyone to watch the play in the big flower hall at the back.
Take advantage of the gap between the stage and the opening ceremony.
A few entrusted people came to Jia's mother and said with a smile: "Old lady, they all say that the third son of the house is a rare handsome person, I don't know if it is or not?" ”
This is going to call people over and have a look.
Hearing the words of several orders, Jia Mu immediately ordered the mandarin duck to say: "You call someone to go to the east mansion and call Brother Cong!" ”
"Yes!"
The mandarin duck took the order and left.
Looked at.
Mrs. Baolinghou next to her smiled: "It's rare that the old lady is willing to let go, if it weren't for the fact that our family Xiangyun is too young, I would like to secretly intercept it!" ”
looked at Shi Xiangyun hiding behind Mrs. Baolinghou.
Jia Mu smiled: "You don't have to worry about this girl, after two years, I will definitely show her a good one!" ”
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
