ancient female doctor

Chapter 422 Shameless

In the evening, all the officials, generals, nobles, and women with orders or titles above the fifth rank attended the dinner after the succession.

The new emperor's concubines in Ningzhou had already taken over, but they were all low-level concubines, so the person in charge of the women's side was the former Ning Wang Shizi, who was also the current crown prince.

Of course, Princess An Ning was also the original Princess An Le, and her status in the inner palace must be much higher than that of the Crown Princess, but she is not the kind of person who can host a dinner party.

But Rao Princess An Ning didn't have to assume the responsibility of presiding, but she was still led by the Crown Princess Cheng to sit on the main seat, but she was tossed badly.

However, Qingzhu is not any better than Princess Anning. As the newly promoted titled county lord, she was also surrounded by a group of people at the banquet. Yes, there are also people who want to make friends with each other, and it is annoying.

Of course, those around Qingzhu are all juniors, that is, people of the same generation as Qingzhu.

What really troubled Qingzhu was the wives of the upstart families, each of whom had turned into the embodiment of love, and asked Qingzhu whether he was married or not.

The truly powerful veteran nobles naturally disdain a county lord who has no foundation and no natal background, but the newly promoted nobles, as well as those former nobles who have already foreseen that they will gradually be marginalized in the new dynasty, The county lord is still very coveted for the title of the third grade.

Facing these people, Qingzhu really didn't know what to do.

If you say there is no marriage, then these people's faces clearly show that they are all asking with a purpose. If you just said no, then they will introduce you enthusiastically in the next sentence.What's more, between her and Pei Zimo, there is basically only a close call now, how can it be possible to accept other people?
But you say there is a marriage, there is no three-match six-hiring, it's just two young people who like each other. At a small scale, it's because young people don't understand the rules. Anyway, you can't say it on this occasion.

Therefore, this good celebration dinner was an incomparable torture for Qingzhu.

However, if Qing Zhu knew about the man's situation, she should feel that she was still good.

The dinner party on the men's side is held in the Xingsheng Hall. Compared with the women's side, those old men actually have to restrain themselves a lot.

However, there are always some people who don't care about face, or are brazen.

For example, Zong Hansong, who is still in the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, feels precarious.

After another eulogizing, Zong Hansong knelt down in the hall of Xingsheng Hall and shouted long live three times.

The new emperor "Rende" was "easy-going". Seeing this situation, he put down the cup in his hand with a smile, looked at Zong Hansong, and said in a rather amicable tone: "Aiqing is flat, on such a happy day , These customary etiquettes can be avoided if you can."

"Thank you long live." Zong Hansong said, without getting up, he just raised his voice and said: "Today is the day of great joy for all the people of my Darui Dynasty. Here, old minister, there is something that I don't know whether to play or not to play."

"Oh? What's the matter? Aiqing, let's hear it." Emperor Rui Ning said with a smile.

Of course, when Emperor Rui Ning opened his mouth, the voices of the people in the hall gradually stopped talking, and they all looked at Zong Hansong, wanting to hear what was the matter with him.

"Qizou Your Majesty, thanks to His Majesty's grace, ordered the Criminal Department to thoroughly investigate the case of Qianzhenxihou Pei Lie. The old minister was so grateful that he couldn't help but think of the old friend who had forgotten the age, but it reminded the old minister of an old incident, and the old minister said The old matter mentioned is the matter that the old minister wants to report to His Majesty." Zong Hansong said, his face was full of regret.

From the moment Zong Hansong stood up during the banquet, Pei Zimo's brows were furrowed. When Zong Hansong said this, the anger on his face was almost undisguised, and his eyes were burning. It landed on Zong Hansong's back.

Without turning his head, Zong Hansong could feel Pei Zimo's gaze on his back, as if it was a fire, making his back ache, but now the arrow is on the string, and he has no choice but to shoot.

What's more, he has long been aware that someone is secretly investigating him, but he is not sure if that person is Pei Zimo, otherwise, he would not have made such a bad plan.

"Oh? What's the past? Aiqing, tell me carefully." Emperor Rui Ning seemed to be aroused a little bit, looked at Zong Hansong, and asked seriously.

"Yes, the old minister obeys the order." Zong Hansong said, kowtowed, and then raised his head, his eyes were already in a trance, there seemed to be tears in his eyes, his face was sometimes happy, sometimes sad, he had done enough With a look of mixed sorrow and joy, a gratified smile finally froze on his face, and then he opened his mouth slowly.

"I think your Majesty has also heard that the old minister and Pei Lie, the former Zhenxihou, were old friends. And because of the friendship between the two of us, our Pei and Zong families have also formed a good family relationship. The younger generation We also often play together, we can be described as childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts."

"I still remember that one day, brother Pei Liexian and I had a drink and chat in Zhenxihou Mansion. When the wine was full, hearing the laughter of Mr. Pei and my little granddaughter, brother Pei Liexian sighed and said that he hoped to see us The two families have been on good terms forever, so that the descendants of future generations can be as close as one family."

"The old minister's heart is naturally the same as what Pei Liexian thought, so he also sighed a few words. After the old minister finished sighing, Pei Liexian suddenly proposed that if he wanted to get married with the clan, the old minister asked the old minister's eldest granddaughter, Xu and Pei. The son of the family, so that the two families will always be good in Qin and Jin."

"The old minister agreed on the spot, and agreed that when the children grow up, the Pei family will come to propose marriage."

"Unfortunately……"

Zong Hansong didn't finish his sentence, but sighed heavily, and then said in an excited tone: "Fortunately, the heavens have eyes, God still left a trace of blood for the Pei family after all, and I have received His Majesty's grace to make it In just a few short years, Mr. Pei's family has returned to Shangjing in a dignified manner. There is even more opportunity to help the Pei family to clear their grievances and punish the vicious criminal."

"Here, the old minister, on behalf of Pei Lie's brother and my family, I would like to thank Your Majesty for the grace of heaven, and I pray that Your Majesty will grant you Long En, and marry my granddaughter and Pei Zimo, the son of the Pei family and the current Zhenxi Hou. Brother's last wish, so that he can smile at Jiuquan."

As Zong Hansong said, he kowtowed heavily and prostrated himself on the ground devoutly.
