73. A banquet with a slap in the face

"Don't be afraid. The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. Lou Xinyue sneered.

After Liu Xinning woke Lou Xinyue up, she chatted again. She waited until it was dark before she said goodbye and left.

On the eighth day of the first month of March, a new event occurred in the capital.

Yong Weibo, who guarded Beiliang City, corrected the concubine Xin at the cost of three years of military exploits and twenty rods.

For a while, the love story of Yong Weibo and Xin's spread all over the capital.

Without waiting for everyone to sigh that this love is as deep as the sea, the affair of Yong Wilber with multiple women discounted this story again.

However, this discounted story did not have much impact on Xin's.

She has already got half of what she wants, and the remaining half is also in the planning, what are you afraid of?

Therefore, even though Yong Weibo is still lying in bed recuperating from his injuries, Yong Weibo's mansion is still preparing to hold a grand banquet on March 12.

The purpose of the banquet was clear, that is, to push the new Mrs. Yong Weibo into the circle of noblewomen in the capital.

Therefore, Yongweibo Mansion issued invitations and invited all the daughters of the family to the banquet.

In the mansion of the eldest princess of Changle, she naturally also received an invitation from Yongweibo's mansion.

Liu Xinning took the post and read it roughly, and threw it on the couch table.

The twelfth day of March in the book also has this feast.

It was at this banquet that Lou Wuyue's little cousin, Lou Huayue, fell into the eyes of the eldest princess of Changle because of her resemblance to the original owner, and was accepted as a righteous daughter by the eldest princess.

Now, she is still the main master, so naturally she doesn't have to worry about this problem.

"County Lord, Miss Lou's reply to you." Chun Nuan walked in lightly and handed Lou Xinyue's reply to Liu Xinning.

The purpose of this banquet is too clear. So Liu Xinning sent a letter to Lou Xinyue, asking if they needed to attend the banquet.

If you go to a banquet, although you also support Lou Xinyue, in the end, you will also give Xin's face.

If she didn't go to the banquet, Liu Xinning was worried that Lou Xinyue would be bullied at the banquet.

Therefore, she simply wrote to ask the person concerned's opinion.

After reading the reply, Liu Xinning looked at Chun Nuan, who was waiting for an order next to her.

"On the twelfth, I invited Sister Ye, let's go out of the city together to enjoy the flowers in the Hundred Flowers Courtyard."

"Yes."

Lou Xinyue said in the letter that she had no way to leave the mansion, because after all, it was a banquet in Yongweibo's mansion.

If she wasn't there, not to mention how the Xin clan arranged her externally, even Yong Weibo wouldn't allow it.

However, Lou Xinyue let her family and Ye Lanqing's family not have to give face to the Xin family.

Lou Xinyue said that she would protect herself from being bullied.

Liu Xinning thought about the gemstone bracelet on Lou Xinyue's wrist that she had seen recently, and put her mind at ease.

In the book, the first appearance of Fufeng Pavilion was when the Nine Emperor Princes went to make jewelry and secret weapons for Lou Xinyue.

Now, although the gift of jewelry is much earlier than in the book, it is estimated that the Nine Emperor Princes and Lou Xinyue met in advance.

So in terms of safety, Lou Xinyue is safe.

Besides, Lou Xinyue can also work hard.

On March 12, the weather was clear and cloudless.

Whether it's a banquet or a play, it's an excellent sunny day.

At the banquet of the Yong Wiber Mansion, there were only a few noble ladies.

More of them are the families of low-grade military attachés, especially the families of generals under Yong Weibo.

Xin looked at the people in the hall flattering Mrs. Yongwei with lotus flowers, and his heart was full of astringency.

She covered half of her face with a handkerchief and pulled down the face that had been smiling for a long time.

"It's past noon now, are these people coming?" She asked her confidant Xin's mother in a low voice.

"The porter said that no one was coming." Mother Xin whispered softly, for fear that she would be slapped in the face next.

"Hmph......" Xin snorted in his nose and let out a slow breath.

"Miss's side...... Who's coming? ”

"Here comes the young lady of the Jiang family. The highest status is the eldest lady Jiang who is married to the tenth prince of the Fuguo Mansion. ”

Mother Xin obviously understood Xin's intentions, and quickly replied.

"Didn't you say that she had a good relationship with the county lord of Zhaoyang and the county lord of Ye? Neither the Changle Princess's Mansion nor the Feng'an Princess's Mansion came? ”

"This, no...... I don't know why they didn't come. Is there something wrong with you? ”

"Are you sure the post was delivered?"

"Sent. It was the old slave who followed Mama Zhang beside Mrs. Tai and personally delivered it to the county lord and the county lord's housekeeper's mother. ”

Xin was speechless after hearing this.

She was born in Beiliang County and grew up in Beiliang City, so she really doesn't know much about things in the capital.

Even the official language was slowly learned after marrying Yong Weibo.

Beiliang County is freezing cold, so few people in the capital will settle there.

That is, every year when the Yongweibo Mansion in the capital sends a festival gift to Beiliang County, she will meet the people in the capital.

However, most of the people who went were subordinates, and the information that could be inquired about was limited.

What's more, the people who gave the gifts before were all from the Jiang family, and they wouldn't say anything.

The people of the past four years are too ladylike, but they don't know much about Lou Xinyue's situation.

After arriving in the capital a few days ago, everyone in the house said that Lou Xinyue was good friends with the county lord of Zhaoyang and the county lord Ye.

She originally wanted to take advantage of this banquet to let Xiao Wu climb to the county lord of Zhaoyang. Now it seems that there is no drama.

However, why didn't they come to the banquet in Yongweibo's mansion?

The Changle Eldest Princess Mansion and the Feng'an Eldest Princess Mansion, which were remembered by the Xin family, were very quiet at this time.

Early in the morning, the eldest princess of Changle entered the palace.

And the eldest princess Feng'an, holding the blessing of her daughter, also followed the eldest princess of Changle to enter the palace without an edict.

And Liu Xinning and Ye Lanqing were in the Baihua Courtyard on the outskirts of the capital, and they had a great time.

Especially when they heard that the ladies in the capital heard that no one in the Changle Eldest Princess's Mansion went to attend the banquet in Yongweibo's Mansion, so many people even found an excuse to refuse, but just gave a gift, and they were even happier when they thought of just slapping Xin's face like this and helping Lou Xinyue to let out a dark breath.

In the evening, Ye Lanqing was going home.

And Liu Xinning thought that he hadn't seen the secret guard training in the mountains behind Jushanzhuang for a while, so he stayed on the pretext of staying in a small house.

During this period of time, because of Ye Lanqing's marriage, and because of the affairs of Yongweibo's Mansion, she occasionally had to go to the palace to accompany the Queen Mother to entertain her relatives and hug the Queen Mother's thighs more solidly, so Liu Xinning hadn't been to see training for a long time.

Seeing Ye Lanqing's carriage slowly walking away, Liu Xinning asked Chun Nuan to arrange the carriage.

And she went back to the courtyard and asked Qingchu and Light Yan, who came with her this time, to help her change into simple clothes.

After the change, Liu Xinning said that she wanted to go out for a walk, just take the spring warmth that she had just returned.

After serving the county lord for almost half a year, Qingchu and Light Yan have already understood Liu Xinning's temperament.

But if the county lord has made up his mind, then don't refute it again. Therefore, they all retreated.

Liu Xinning walked out of the gate with Chun Nuan and was about to step on the bench to enter the carriage.

As a result, a person suddenly rushed out from the side, and Chun Nuan was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped forward to protect Liu Xinning and took a few steps back.
