Spring Banquet - Chapter 94

With an exclamation, Huaiyu was a little bit dumbfounded: “Didn’t you say not to send it?”

This thing is the baby he got recently. She knew he liked it, so she used it to make a joke. She didn’t think he really gave it.

Jiang Xuanjin turned her head and glanced, her black eyes were a little heavy: “What do you want?”

“This… well, it’s what I want.” Huaiyu scratched his head, “what should I return?”

Putting down the tea cup in her hand, Jiang Xuanjin looked down and said: “I go back and forth, you don’t have to worry about it.”

The annual banquet ended in a lively and lively manner, and was filled with unconsciousness. When the fire in the first-tier cities continued until the end, the soldiers stationed outside the city happily surrounded the fire to eat meat and drink, as if they were in their hometown. Not on the battlefield.

however. On the first day after the New Year, Li Huailin made a secret decree, following the intent of Situ Jing and others, Renning Zhendong as the general, and placing troops in the north of Ziyang, the west of Pingling, and the south of Changlin in preparation Need.

Ning Zhendong was the guard of Yinping County before, but after Ziyang Jun saw through his plot, he fled back to Kyoto overnight. This errand shouldn’t have been left to him. After all, it was a bit dangerous, and it didn’t take much effort to succeed, but somehow, His Majesty pushed him out.

Someone who knows the matter whispered to him: “Concubine Ning has fallen out of favor for more than half a month. My lord did not succeed in doing things last time, and I was angry with my Majesty.”

How could Wanwei fall out of favor? Ning Zhendong wondered, isn’t her obedient and considerate temperament always sacred?

Indeed, Ning Wanwei entered the palace at the age of sixteen. Although she is two years older than the emperor, she has always been in favor. Many people in the harem who wanted to compete with her for a position failed. The people in the palace felt that as long as the Ning family did some more work, the next position would fall on Ning Wanwei’s head.

But now, Li Huailin hasn’t been to Hexi Palace for half a month.

It’s not that he didn’t want to go, but since he shook his face capriciously last time, Concubine Ning hadn’t taken the initiative to invite Ann. He was angry for a few days and asked the maid and Xi Gongli how was it. The waiter said that the concubine had a great time.

What does it mean? Li Huailin feels very uncomfortable. He is the ninth-five-year-old man who should be looked up and worried about. Without his favor, how could she live well?

It was in Yinping to give Ziyang Jun a game and wanted to take him directly. Who knows that Ning Zhendong’s inability to do things not only caused Jiang Xuanjin to return to the main city of Ziyang, but also went back to Beijing in embarrassment to plead guilty. Li Huailin was very angry. After thinking about it, he asked Ning Zhendong to pay off the merits, and specially asked the servant to talk to Xi Gong.

The meaning of this message is very simple: if you make me unhappy, then I will be rude to your family!

Concubine Ning turned pale when she heard the news. After hesitating for a moment, she arranged her palace clothes and hairpin, and went to Longyan Palace to ask for peace. She hadn’t been favored for the past half month, and every time she went to invite an, she was obstructed in every way. Today, I don’t know if it was the kindness of the servant or something, that she was let into the hall.

With a sigh of relief, Ning Wanwei went in and saluted: “The concubine please greet your majesty.”

Li Huailin sat on the dragon chair and said with a cold face: “It’s no use begging me now. The large lands of Changlin, Pingling, Ziyang, and Danyang all have the meaning of rebellion. The situation is imminent and no one is available to the court. , I can only send Master Ning to go.”

Concubine Ning paused, feeling his majesty’s indifference towards her. My heart choked slightly.

From the beginning, she knew that your Majesty only looked at her twice because she looked like a princess, but she had been by his side for two or three years. She thought it could be a little different. Whoever thought it would be the same. , Once she lost her affection, she was no different from those in the cold palace.

With her eyes down, Concubine Ning knelt down at him and bowed her head respectfully: “The concubine just hasn’t seen your majesty for a long time, please come to please peace.”

Do you know you haven’t seen it for a long time? Li Huailin had a dark face and stared at the memorial on the table displeasedly. After being bored for a while, he glanced at her with the corner of the eye.

With this scan, I saw a thin face, haggard that couldn’t be covered by makeup.

Slightly startled, Li Huailin frowned: “What’s the matter with you?”

Concubine Ning Gui didn’t know what he meant by this, and she straightened up blankly and looked down at it: “Chen concubine…what’s wrong?”

After only half a month, it was reduced like this. Didn’t you notice it? Or do you mean to make this look deliberately and come to him to play tricks? Li Huailin looked at it coldly, thinking that the latter was more likely.

There was a feeling of pressure in his heart, and he said: “If you are not used to eating the fine clothes and jade in Xi Palace, and you can’t maintain your body, then it is better to move to Hanxuan and make room for Concubine Shu.”

Ning Wanwei paled, pinching her sleeves and staring blankly at the woven flowers on the carpet.

Hexi Palace was the palace he repaired for her, and now he asked her to give it to others without blinking.

Is the emperor’s family so ruthless?

“Nothing?” Li Huailin was a little impatient without getting a response for a long time.

Slightly grabbing her mind, she whispered: “The glory of the concubines is given by your majesty. Your majesty wants to take it back, and the concubines have no complaints.”

The waiter standing next to her gave her a glance.

I have never seen a concubine who is stupid than her. If I were to be a concubine Shu, she would have acted coquettishly and begged for mercy.

Li Huailin’s face became darker, and he reached out and knocked on the imperial desk, and said indifferently: “The imperial concubine is generous and generous, and I should fulfill it, and move out of Hexi Palace immediately. As for Master Ning, the imperial concubine can also send him off. See you next time. I don’t know when it is.”

Ning Wanwei stiffened all over, slowly kowtow to him, got up again, and stumbled out.

The dowry maid who heard the news helped her all the way, and said as she walked: “Nian Guan Fengjun did not go to Beijing to report on his work. Taichang has already committed the crime of treason. At the moment, the largest fief in the Northern Wei Dynasty is headed by Ziyangjun. It’s a group, maybe there will be a fight at some point. Your lord is leading the formation at this time. It’s really a line of life and death.”

Anxiously, Ning Wanwei asked, “Isn’t it okay before? Why is it suddenly going back?”

The court lady whispered: “I heard that Prince Situ and Prime Minister Qi Pingling were guilty. His Majesty sent someone to arrest Mr. Pingling. He was stopped by the troops of Changlin, Ziyang, and Nanping. Conflict broke out in Lingbian City.”

As soon as this battle was fought, no matter what the facts were, several Fengjun had already boarded a boat.

In fact, Lin Jun, the company commander, didn’t know how they suddenly became members of Ziyang Jun’s faction, but Ziyang Jun was a reliable man, and he did everything well. Following him, several Fengjun no longer have to pay taxes to Kyoto. In just one month, I made a lot of money and food, and all my faces were cheerful.

Everyone in the world is profitable. Jiang Xuanjin knows this truth very well, so he doesn’t deliberately draw in, only let these people know clearly-to be friends with him, there are many benefits.

However, Mr. Chang Lin has a little worry, that is, if there really is a fight, although their fiefs are broad, they add up to half of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but they are not righteous, and they should fight against the court in order to wash away the rebellion. Stigma?

This problem ushered in a turning point on the third day after the new year.

The Eastern Jin Dynasty broke off diplomatic relations with the Northern Wei Dynasty this year, and there were no envoys, but Baihua Jun entered the land of the Northern Wei Dynasty and took a boat straight down from Pingling to the first-tier city.

“What are you talking about?” Li Huaiyu felt that he might have misheard, “Who?”

Qingsi repeated: “Mr Baihua.”

The true ruler of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Baihuajun Murongqi, who was as famous as Ziyangjun of the Northern Wei Dynasty, did not go to Kyoto this time, representing the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and came to the princess mansion.

Huaiyu was so scared that she almost fell off the bed. He hurriedly pulled Qingsi and said, “Get ready for the ceremony, and let Jiwu and the others bring someone to guard!”

Qingsi calmed down and said, “You were prepared early in the morning, don’t worry.”

“No, no, he didn’t have enough things.” Huaiyu shook his head repeatedly.

Xu Chuyong looked curiously beside him and couldn’t help asking, “What are you doing so nervously?”

“You don’t know.” Huaiyu sighed, “There is something wrong with Bai Huajun!”

She used to argue with Jiang Xuanjin about reception etiquette. That was the same time, and she never disputed it again, because it turns out that Jiang Xuanjin knew more about Murong Qi than she, the illegitimate daughter of the first emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, who had lived in the dark court life for more than ten years, and had difficulty for ordinary people to adapt. ‘S weird temper. To Jiang Xuanjin, she is persuasive and submissive, but every time she enters the palace, she will make things difficult for Li Huaiyu.

What kind of temper is Princess Danyang? Seeing that his yin and yang are not pleasing to the eye, he directly slammed back with the posture of a Chang’an Street fighter. In the 7th year of Daxing, I fought with Bai Huajun in Feiyun Palace, from the courtyard to the gate of the palace. Although it was a loss for both sides, she hurt her face. Murong Qi said to her sideways. : “My Lord will learn again next year.”

Unfortunately, in the eighth year of Daxing, the princess had gone.

There is nothing to say if she is really awkward, but she is still alive, and the news has been released. Murong Qi will definitely find her to settle last year’s accounts when she comes. If she doesn’t prepare more things now. Where is their opponent?

After hearing this, Xu Chuyong nodded to express understanding, and then reminded her: “His Royal Highness, you are now protected by Ziyang Jun.”

What else are you preparing for?

Huaiyu was taken aback and slapped his thigh suddenly: “Yes!”

Is Jiang Xuanjin in hand, afraid that people will come for revenge?

With confidence, Huaiyu rolled his sleeves and asked, “Where are the people?”

Qingsi said: “At the door, the Lord meant to give you a good rest. After lunch, you will meet again.”

Bai Huajun came back to the first-tier cities, aside from other things, it was definitely a loud slap on the face of the Northern Wei imperial family. The Northern Wei imperial family and the Eastern Jin Dynasty had no envoys this year, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty envoys went to the fief.

This is equivalent to treating the land of Ziyang Danyang as an independent country.

When Li Huailin received the news, he couldn’t even stop him, so he could only raise objections to the Eastern Jin Dynasty’s practices and wrote a letter of credence to condemn the Eastern Jin Dynasty’s intention to split the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Dongjin did not give any response.

“This is a great help.” Murong Qi sat in the lobby and looked at Jiang Xuanjin with a smile, “How do you thank me?”

Jiang Xuanjin said quietly: “Don’t take an inch.”

In order to exchange her for a visit, he gave a lot of things, and this person was as difficult as ever.

“Hey. I received the news. I heard people say that you are married and have changed a lot. But now, why is it still like this?” Murong Qi shook his head, “Where there is still grass on the iceberg, you are better. , Cold from the inside to the outside.”

Bring it up. Jiang Xuanjin’s expression eased: “Do you know who I am married?”

“Inquiry, the fourth lady of the Bai family?” Murong abandoned, “I’m here this time, and I want to see her specially. Let’s see how such a beautiful and beautiful woman can accept a man like you.”

Jiang Xuanjin nodded and said, “Let her come to see you later.”

“By the way, there is Princess Danyang, please come together.” Murong abandoned his teeth. “She’s a bastard, she has to pull me back and tell people what I sent her soul-locked jade pendant back to life, so that the emperor ransacked my house to the sky!”

Jiang Xuanjin raised her lips without holding back one.

“Hiss——” Murong Qi took a breath and stared at him, “Did you smile?”

She has visited the Northern Wei Dynasty several times, and has never seen a smile on the face of this Ziyang Jun.

Is it going to rain red?

Constricting the corners of her mouth, Jiang Xuanjin said in a hurry, “Go and ask Madam to come over.”

Taking advantage of the futility, Yufeng stood there and looked at the shocked look on Baihua Jun’s face, wondering what’s so exciting about it? It would be nice to stay in the princess mansion for two more days.

No one would have thought that Ziyang Jun, who had a cold face for thousands of miles back then, would now bend his lips when he mentions a woman.

When Chengxu went to invite people, he reminded Li Huaiyu very kindly: “Jun Baihua said, please go with the princess and Mrs. Jun.”

Huaiyu raised her eyebrows, and then she suddenly came across. There are ups and downs outside, but there are not many people who really know that Miss Bai Si is the Princess of Danyang. Obviously, Murong Qi is not clear.

With two treacherous laughs, Huaiyu deliberately did not bring the blue silk, holding his belly and walking into the lobby with small lotus steps.

Jiang Xuanjin frowned when she saw that no one was around her, got up and helped her, slightly annoyed: “Aren’t you afraid of falling?”

“Look at the nervous look of your husband, how can your concubine be afraid of falling? Isn’t you still there?” Li Huaiyu smiled and took his hand, his voice was so tender that he could pinch water out.

Yufeng behind was agitated, and his whole body was covered with goose bumps.

Jiang Xuanjin raised her eyebrows slightly, but was attracted by her “concubine body”.

Bai Xuanji had called herself this before, and he listened very strongly, feeling that this title was really disgusting.

But now I heard from her mouth, Jiang Xuanjin objectively felt that this claim was really tender and gentle.

So he looked relieved, gave a low “um”, and helped her to sit down next to her.

Murong Qi saw a ghost on his face.

“Ah, this is the Eastern Jin Baihua Monarch, right?” Huaiyu gently grasped the handrail and said, “Long admiring the name.”

“Uh…I have seen Madam.” Murong Qi gave his hands unnaturally.

To be honest, she is very comfortable dealing with Jiang Xuanjin, because Jiang Xuanjin only regulates herself with respect to etiquette and does not care about her. It is more comfortable to deal with Li Huaiyu, she has no rules, she has no rules than her, and can play anytime, anywhere.

However, in the face of such a soft and weak girl, Murong Qi had the urge to run when he thought of getting up.
