Marriage of the Di Daughter

Chapter 77 Banquet

Shortly after the Ming Yi Tang verification, the Kang family also received a banquet invitation for the Miyagi Night Banquet.

Since he was a child, Hongxiao Emperor has had simple sexual pleasures and does not love luxury. Only today's Empress loves to be lively. Although Hongxiao Emperor and Empress are not mothers and sons, they are also in harmony. Hongxiao Emperor's birth mother, Xia Guifei, died early, the Empress has no children. The first emperor placed Hongxiao Emperor under the Queen's knees and grew up with her for so many years. She is also a mother and compassionate son.

This time, in addition to the banquet, everyone knows that Hong Xiaodi will also teach the head of the ceremony at the palace feast. It is a great honor for the students themselves and the family. Therefore, even if Lady Kang is not very fond of ginger pear, she also instructs the surrounding party to do their best to prepare the clothes and jewelry for the palace banquet, and make no mistake.

Kang Li's life was a little more moisturizing than before, at least after verification, when the people in the Kang Mansion talked about her, they didn't care about the big banner drums as much as before, they talked behind their backs. Although it's a little sour, it's undoubtedly true that ginger pears are a little higher than before.

At the palace banquet, many of Yan Dynasty's official houses in Yan Jingcheng will go, but Meng Youde will not be able to go this time.

Compared to the lively scenes of the past, Meng family, the recent depression has been fatal, the garden grass seems to be unattended and defeated a lot. Yellow leaves landed outside the flower pot, and in the heat of summer, some killing was noticed.

At night, the lights in the house were faint, and in a room where people were leaning in, voices were hidden. It seemed to be a quarrel, and after a while, a bang, something was broken and someone broke out the door.

It's Meng Youde.

In just a few days, Meng Youde also lost a lot of weight, and no longer appeared to be proud of the spring wind. Someone chased him out. He's Meng Youde's wife, Mrs. Meng.

“My lord, my lord--” Lady Meng ran to plead.

“Needless to say, send her back to the village to rest tomorrow. If she keeps doing this, something big will happen sooner or later!” Meng Youdetou didn't return either.

“That's your daughter. How could you be so mean!” Mrs. Meng screamed.

“I'm mean?” Meng Youde stopped his steps and turned back sharply, pointing to the door that was closed tightly in the distance. "Look at her now, can you stay in the house? Now I have offended Princess Yongning, and the right-hand man no longer cares about me. This is the end of my career! This is all your daughter's fault! If she hadn't made some kind of bet with Kang Li in the sky, or if she hadn't shot Princess Yongning in the stables with that arrow, why would Meng Youde be here? ”

“But….” What else does Lady Meng want to say?

“She's crazy now! My own daughter, I'm not in pain? But she's crazy! It's not necessarily a good thing to stay at Meng's house. If someone finds out she's out of her mind, who else dares to marry her later? If she stayed on Zhuangzi for a while, and came back better, no one would know the truth about her crazy life, would that be okay? ”

Mrs. Meng heard the rumors and calmed down. She looked at Meng Youde and asked sadly, "What exactly happened to Princess Yongning? Can't we really avenge her? ”

“Revenge?” Meng Youde sneered, that anger did not know if it was to Princess Yongning or to himself, "Princess Yongning is behind the king, the power of King Cheng now even His Majesty should be constrained, in the future...” He sighed, "The people do not fight the officials, the officials do not fight the King! ”

The tone of helplessness and sorrow silenced Lady Meng for a moment.

In the house, in the corner of the bed, Meng Hongjin squeezed the quilt tightly in the corner and looked vigilantly at someone. “Go away... go away! ”

The ground is a broken medicine bowl, the juice is all over the ground, one maid is bending over to clean up the residue on the ground, the other maid is softly comforting Meng Hongjin: “Miss, it's okay, the slave will not harm you. ”

“Go away!” Meng Hongjin screamed, "I didn't do it, I didn't do it! ”

This has been the case since Meng Hongjin was sent back by Princess Yongning three days ago.

Meng Youde and Lady Meng were afraid that Princess Yongning would use her sentence against Meng Hongjin. The first thing to come back was to have Meng Hongjin's body checked for injuries, checked to check it out, and there were no injuries. But when Meng Hongjin woke up, this happened. She hid, as if she was greatly frightened and didn't recognize the people around her, as if she had forgotten herself.

Nobody knows what happened to Princess Yongning. Only crazy Princess Meng Hongjin and Princess Yongning can know this. Nobody dares to question Princess Yongning's Xingshi, even Meng Youde, as long as he wants a future, Meng Hongjin is doomed to make a senseless sacrifice.

……

In the Princess's house, the lights are bright and distinct from those in the Mon province.

The gorgeous dancers in the hall wore thin veils and danced lightly. The white veil covered half their faces, revealed a pair of cut water eyes and ended with all kinds of tenderness, all thrown at the center of the hall.

The most central man, tall nose, deep eyes, thin lips, thick eyebrows, handsome five officials, but due to his narrow face, showed a slightly unfamiliar indifference.

This is the king.

“Brother, take it from me.” Princess Yongning's way.

Cheng Wang glanced at her and said: "Why are you so clueless? ”

“Nothing interesting, of course.” Princess Yongning held her head, her eyes were soft, she didn't know what to think, and she became a little irritated.

Cheng Wang said: "The other day, I didn't bring back the young lady from the Mansion. Why is it still boring? ”

Rumor has it, Princess Yongning was somewhat surprised, "I can't believe you noticed this.” She picked her fingernails and said: “Forget it, the Meng Hongjin looks great. In fact, it was a strongman who did it. I just took her to the prison in the Princess's house for a walk. She didn't touch her, so she peed her pants.” Princess Yongning showed a disgusting look, "Look at her. I didn't even have the pleasure of torturing her, so I sent her back. ”

“The tragedy in your prison is unbearable for a man to go to," Cheng Wang laughed, “No wonder you showed her these. ”

In the prison of the princess house, Guan has upset Princess Yongning. Princess Yongning hates people who are extremely reluctant to let people die immediately. Stay here and come up with ways of torturing people, such as peeling half a skin, or digging your knees, and imitating cooking, in short, purgatory. Meng Hongjin, though arrogant and trekking on weekdays, has seen the killing of a maid in the Mon Mansion at best. Such a living tragedy is enough to frighten her and make her a nightmare forever in her heart.

“It's boring.” Princess Yongning grinned, “Of course, torturing people slowly under their eyes is fun, it's better to resist death struggle, watching her struggle for survival soon to have a glimmer of hope,” she “whistled," blowing out the flame in the light in front of her, seems to be fun, “giggling," like this, blowing out her last glimmer of hope, letting her despair, that's funny. Only the best prey can be called if you know how to resist struggling prey... ”

Cheng Wang smiled lightly: "You are talking about Xue Fangfei. ”

Princess Yongning left her mouth open and was about to answer. Someone outside reported, "Lord Shen of Zhongshelang is here. ”

Princess Yongning heard that her eyes lit up and her tiredness suddenly swept away. She was happy to say: "Let him in! ”

The king touched the teacup in front of him in silence and took a sip, saying nothing.

After a while, Shen Yurong was led in by a man. He first paid his respects to Cheng Wang. This was when he looked at Princess Yongning, "Her Highness. ”

Princess Yongning was more than happy to see him. Her expression was even more approachable than before. She said to Cheng Wang: "I invited Master Shen. Brother, you didn't say the other day that Wenchang's court lacked people..."

Cheng Wang slightly frowned. He seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with Princess Yongning's impatience. Good thing only Princess Yongning was invisible. Shen Yurong was still standing in the hall, holding a heavy end, and his eyes were not oblique. Cheng Wang was more satisfied with him.

Princess Yongning and Cheng Wang have excellent feelings. Naturally, it can be seen that Cheng Wang is satisfied with Shen Yurong. She is happy and a little proud. She seems proud of Shen Yurong. Since the day of the stable, she was wounded by Meng Hongjin's arrows, many people came to the princess's house to care about her body, but there was no Shen Yurong.

Shen Yurong is now Zhongshu Lang, a man who is also valued by Emperor Hong Xiaodi, and his wife died shortly after. It is no good to be seen walking too close to her princess. Princess Yongning didn't understand that, she just couldn't help but miss him. Shen Yurong was not really as annoying to her as other men, but the colder he was to Princess Yongning, the more she loved him.

Princess Yongning thought that Shen Yurong was born to grab her. She abandoned the princess's pride for Shen Yurong, put down her face, even killed his wife, and showed a smile in front of him that she never showed anyone else. All this was just to get Shen Yurong to repay her for the same love.

She loved Shen Yurong.

Cheng Wang began to ask Shen Yurong some things. Shen Yurong stood upright, his attitude was not inferior, but he was quite human. Cheng Wang's eyes became more and more satisfied with Shen Yurong. Although Shen Yurong and Princess Yongning had the end, Cheng Wang thought it was not a big mistake.

What if the great things don't matter, and it's just a useless woman?

People in the world are either stomping stones or tripping stones, stomping stones to step on, tripping stones to throw away.

Shen Yurong just dropped a stumbling block, but his path will become wider and wider.

……

“Shen Yurong arrived at Princess Yongning's house, and Cheng Wang was there.” The guard in black is in the paper.

In the government's study, Ji Xiao put the extracted books back from the wooden shelf.

The guard disappeared silently again.

“Looks like Shen Yurong and Cheng Wang are online.” Lu Xiao sipped tea and looked at Ji Xiao with a smile.

“Sooner or later.” Ji Xiao put the book back, did not leave, but stood in front of the yellow pear wooden frame, seemed to be looking for another book.

“Congratulations, my lord.” Lu Xuan: “Shen Yurong has joined the king, and Cheng Wang has added an additional general to the Xinggui side. The power will rise a lot. ”

"" Shen Yurong had ambition, Cheng Wang had ambition, and the smell was the same on ambitious people. Just as the wolf will not join the dog, Shen Yurong will not choose the emperor in the dynasty, he will only choose the king, only the king can satisfy his ambition. ”

“Adults can still see it.” Lu Xuan sighed and suddenly remembered something. “It's just a shame that Meng Youde's side was declared. Meng Youde was a man of the right phase. Now he offends Princess Yongning, he offends Cheng Wang. The right phase is a man of the king, and he will not use Meng Youde anymore. Meng Youde is actually very capable...”

The Meng family, which was originally working for the right-hand side and also worked for Cheng Wang, are now destined to be abandoned by Cheng Wang because of the horse farm accident between Princess Meng Hongjin and Princess Yongning. In fact, it is not that Cheng Wang is angry, but that Meng Youde's daughter was murdered like this. It is that Meng Youde still acts as Cheng Wang, and there are inevitable complaints inside.

There are complaints, maybe one day you'll bite back. Cheng Wang was cautious and suspicious. He would never use Meng Youde again. In fact, Meng Youde is not necessarily a good help in terms of ability to grow in the future. It is the position of the outsiders to regret Cheng Wang.

Unfortunately, this has come to an end and cannot be undone.

“This is also because of Miss Kang Er.” Lu Xiaojie laughed: “The previous Ye Shijie, because Miss Kang Er lifted the siege, changed the plan. Now Meng Hongjin is also because Miss Kang Er separated the Meng family from being king. On both occasions, Miss Kang Er blocked the adult's plan. Miss Kang Er and the adult are really guilty. ”

“Are you trying to tell me that Miss Kang Er didn't mean it?” Ji Xiaodao.

“Didn't grownups think so?” Lu Xiaoqiao replied with a smile: “Otherwise, he wouldn't have let Wenji look into it. Who is it that is mentioning Ye Shijie behind his back? ”

Ki finally found the book he was looking for on the wooden shelf, pulled out the scroll, turned around, and embroidered a golden butterfly in the bright red corner, flew across behind him.

““ It's Miss Jiang, "he said. ”

Lu Xiao stopped laughing and looked at Ji Xiao: “The Kang family...”

“Not the Kang family.” Ji Zheng slowly pulled up her lips and revealed an unintelligible smile: “It was Miss Kang Er. ”

“Isn't that funny?” Ji Zheng leaned back and lazily said: “I suspect that this Miss Jiang Er is here to grab me. ”

……

Summer is long, looking at the approaching autumn, but as if there is still no cool autumn intention, the sun continues enthusiastically, the flowers in the garden are covered with sun.

So late rainwater is always especially popular.

It rained at night and didn't stop in the morning, just a little rain switching from a pouring rain to a leaching rain. Rainwater drips down the roof into a fine bead curtain, ticking and answering on the bluestone bricks in the yard, washing the bluestone bricks extraordinarily clean, like rustic emeralds, and seemingly smelling the scent of dirt.

Kiryl came in with breakfast. I saw that Kang Li was not awake yet. There were some accidents. Kang Li woke up early in the day. Kang Li had no lazy habit. Every time Kiryl served breakfast, Kang Li had finished her own comb.

“Girl.” Kiryl called softly.

When she collapsed, Kang Li opened her eyes violently from her sleep. When she saw Kiryl, she hesitated for a moment before realizing what time it was. She sat up and pressed her forehead. Kiryl saw that Kang Li's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and she sniveled. She hurried to find the paste to dry it fine. "Miss, is this a nightmare? She was sweating a lot. ”

Snow was also walking in from the outside, the word went to the window, pushed several windows open, the cold wind outside suddenly came in, the house was not as hot as before, and the ginger pear seemed to be much sober.

She said, "I had a dream. ”

“It was a nightmare,” Snow White said: “It doesn't matter, we have a saying in the countryside, but if you have a nightmare and you feel uncomfortable, you will be fine in the sun. If you're scared, let's go get some sun--”

“What are you talking about?” Kiryl interrupted her before Snow finished. "It's raining outside. Where's the sun? ”

Snow just returned to God and said, "Oh, wait a few more days. ”

Kiryl asked Kang Li: “What was the girl dreaming about, so scared? ”

Though Kangaroo tried to cover it up, the fear and panic in his eyes leaked a few points. She does things with a smile all the time, as if nothing can bother her her, so it becomes even more obvious when she breaks down.

“Nothing," Kang Li glanced in his eyes. "I just dreamed of a late man. ”

Last night, she had another dream about Xue Zhao.

Unlike Xue Zhao in the last horse yard verification dream, this time, Kang Li saw Xue Zhao in the same place as a prison. There were many guards in that place, and everyone was born with evil spirits. Xue Zhaoman was covered in blood and hung upside down in a cell. Kang Li tried to get close to him, but was separated by an iron fence. And she called Xue Zhao's name, but Xue Zhao didn't make a move and didn't know his life or death.

Immediately afterwards, people from somewhere began to punish Xue Zhao. They burned Xue Zhao with burnt iron and poured it with salt water mixed with chili. Xue Zhao started yelling, Kang Li was in terrible pain, but she couldn't touch Xue Zhao.

Until Kiryl woke her up, Kang Ri didn't know she was dreaming.

She couldn't help but panic. Why did she dream of Xue Zhao? Rumor has it that dead relatives dream about their families at night, but why should Xue Zhao let himself see them in his dreams? What the hell is that place? But a teenager like Xue Zhao, who has never done half bad things, is sincere and enthusiastic, is just and brave, and should not go to hell anyway?

And looking at Xue Zhao's feeling of powerlessness is really more painful than killing her.

Though it was just a dream, Kang Li had difficulty releasing herself, and the weather was still rainy today. I wonder if it was affected. Kang Li didn't want to say anything, it was very silent.

Kang Li's silence was seen in the eyes of Fang Fei Yuan's maids, and Kiryl and Snow did not know why, but when they saw that Kang Li did not want to be disturbed, they also did things in silence.

In the afternoon, the emerald next to Lady Kang came to Fanfeiyuan and said to send Kang Pear to Phoenix Hall for the evening. Lady Kang had something important to explain.

After Kang Li answered, he went back to the room to change his clothes. In the meantime, Snow asked: “I don't know what the old lady was looking for. ”

“It's time to ask," Kiryl put some clothes on Ginger Pear and said, “Of course it's for the banquet. Tomorrow is the palace banquet. Not only do we girls have to go, but we also have to accept His Majesty's gift. Such a great honor, the old lady will definitely advise the girl to avoid any mistakes. However," Kiryl whispered: “I haven't seen anything wrong with the girl since she and I went back to Beijing. Let's worry about Miss San themselves...”

Kiryl is also a bit of an asshole. He may have lived in the mountains for a long time. This fell into Kang Pear's ears, which made Kang Pear laugh. The shadow that began in the early morning also dissipated.

Kang Li finally laughed, and Kiryl and Snow were relieved. “Yes, ma'am, it must have been because of the banquet. Now go. ”

This evening in Phoenix Hall, apart from Kang Li, the women of the big room, the second room, the third room are all here.

Kang Yuanbai is the champion, Kang Yuanping is a three-pin government, although Kang Yuanxing is just a school book, but because of these two brothers, he can also go to the palace banquet to get all dirty. The banquet is a big thing, representing the face of the Kang family, and Lady Kang naturally needs to give some orders.

These matters are pretty much the same, year after year, because this year the ginger pear is going to go, so I will ask the ginger pear again.

While waiting for Kang Li's arrival, Lu Shiqiu felt bored and asked Ji Shulan: “Sister-in-law, have you decided on the date of the affair between Xiaoyao and Shizi Zhou? ”

As soon as this is said, there are several people in the room with different colors.

Lady Kang had no emotional fluctuations, but the three rooms were full of surprises, apparently for the first time.

Ji Shuran smiled gently: “The news of the younger siblings is very spiritual. It's not bad. I discussed it with Mrs. Ning Yuanhou a few days ago. Mrs. Hou thought Xiaoyao had already made up her mind and could get married earlier. Next winter would be the best time. ”

Next winter, Jiang Xiaoyao is almost sixteen.

Jiang Xiaoyao heard the rumor and immediately flew up two roses on his face. Just because she and Zhou Yanbang's affair everyone knew that she didn't have to hide anything, she was also very shy to bow her head and not talk.

Jiang Yu E was shocked, but she knew that the affair between Jiang Xiaoyao and Zhou Yanbang would be completed sooner or later, but she didn't expect it so soon. Zhou Yanbang is the Prince of Ning Yuanhou. Ning Yuanhou has only one son, and the entire Ning Yuanhou Mansion will be his in the future. Jiang Xiaoyao can marry the housekeeper and become Mrs. Hou. Besides, Zhou Yanbang, Prince of Ningyuan Hou, is a well-known and beautiful man in Yan Jingcheng. He is highly talented and has a gentle temper. Jiang Xiaoyao will definitely live well after his marriage.

Jiang Xiaoyao married a good man. Jiang Yu-e couldn't help but think of herself. Her father was just a school book. Let's not talk about how humble the ranks of officials are. In the Kang family, he is also a common son, and he is not very close to Uncle Er. Although he tried to please Ji Shulan, Ji Shulan will certainly not pay too much attention to his own affair. There are few people who can help herself. In any case, she cannot marry such a Ruyilang as Jiang Xiaoyao.

Seeing him think about himself, Jiang Xiaoyao thought about his future destiny. He had to groan and sigh in his heart. He was both complaining and discouraged.

“Xiaoyao is a blessing," said Lu. "That Zhou Shizi is the family everyone wants to marry in Yan Jingcheng. But Sister-in-law," she is very concerned to ask: "Don't forget that Pear is also a member of our Kang family. Pear is still a sister. Pear's affair has not been determined yet. The affair of the young yao was settled first, and some gossip is inevitable. ”

This is a bit subtle. Everyone knows that the affair of Jiang Xiaoyao belongs to Jiang Li. Jiang Xiaoyao is not only a pioneer in the nest, but also a pioneer.

Lady Kang closed her eyes slightly and turned a deaf ear to her daughter-in-law's open battle. The scene in front of her was already familiar. Ji Shuran's appearance was gentle, but his wrist was stiff. Lu's admiration for vanity and winning was strong. The two of them came together and stumbled together. After all, it was just an unharmed and elegant little mess, as long as it didn't affect the big picture.

“Thank you for caring.” Ji Shuru seemed to have not heard the sarcasm in Lou's words, and he replied with anger: “Pear's dear lord was also keeping an eye on me, and I hung it on my heart. At Pear's age, she deserves to talk about kissing. However, no one has come to ask for kisses yet. I haven't seen anything better. I don't want to rush Pear out to marry her. If my brother and sister have a good choice, please let me know. I let the master look, palm eyes, after all, Pear's lifetime big thing, I don't dare to make an easy decision, it has to be seen by the mother and the master. ”

Ji Shulan lightly avoided Jiang Xiaoyao's words to take personal life, but without a trace, he despised Jiang Li. Everyone said that there were hundreds of women begging, but Jiang Li returned to Yanjing City for such a long time, but no one came to the door to kiss Jiang Li. He could not see Jiang Li, and the Jiang family could not send his daughter on their own. Later on, she pushed Kang Li's affair to Lady Kang and Kang Yuanbai, and picked one clean and two clean.

Unfortunately, Kang Li just walked to the front door of Phoenix at night and heard Ji Shulan say something like that. I couldn't help laughing.

Kiryl's angry head was straight green smoke. She laughed when she saw Kang Li. She was a little confused. Ji Shulan had already said that. Kang Li was not only angry, but also laughed. What's so funny about this?

Kang Li stepped into the evening feng tang and said: "Madam. ”

Old Lady Kang glanced at her and now called her “old lady” instead of “grandmother”. She seemed intent on breaking up with herself or, in other words, with the Kang family. Of course Lady Kang can see that today's Kang Li and the original Miss Kang Er can't be seen as one person. Kang Li has changed a lot. However, Lady Kang doesn't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Don't open your eyes to the happiness of the Lu family. Thinking that Kang Li heard what Ji Shuran had just said, she must say a few words back to make Ji Shuran uncomfortable. She always enjoys seeing them.

But Kang Li didn't seem to hear Ji Shulan's slander earlier. After calling the old lady, she gave them another gift. She didn't mention Ji Shulan at all.

Jiang Yu 'er looked at the new flowering pleated skirt of Jiang Li - Lady Jiang gave the reward to Jiang Li after verification, her jealous eyes were about to turn red.

Jiang Xiaoyao, on the other hand, stared at Kang Li, thinking of what he had heard from the maid before, Zhou Yanbang wanted to cancel his engagement to find Kang Li, and couldn't help but complain about the poison in his eyes.

Ginger pears stood idly by, blind to their eyes.

She doesn't care.
