General, please stay

Chapter 55
This is not a big deal.It's just that in the end we still have to communicate with Queen Yan, Qi Gui thought to himself.

But she didn't expect the reactions of the concubines to be completely beyond her imagination.

First, Concubine Rou, who was not very polite, said directly: "All below the fourth rank are ordinary scholars. The queen and empress are here in person. How can anyone invite me?"

Even Concubine Hui had a look of disapproval.

It was only then that Qi Gui remembered that Yan State's hierarchy was very strict.Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and even scholars are divided into ranks and grades.Sanpin is a watershed.Starting from the fourth rank, most of them are ordinary scholars who have no military titles and started from poor people.

But when you say it, the water that is thrown out...

Qi Gui stared blankly at Queen Yan.

Queen Yan thought about it for a while, and said: "The annual reception costs a lot of money, and there is also a lot of money left to support the widows. The princess's proposal is good. This year, why not expand the invitation list to the wives of fourth-rank officials first."

Concubine Yun said: "But Mrs. Pingshi entered the military mansion, which is unprecedented. What's more, she collided with the queen..."

Queen Yan waved her hand and said: "Nonsense, is it possible to reduce the pension for the sake of my palace? If so, then it's fine if you don't go to the reception."

Qi Gui heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "My concubine, thank the queen for your kindness."

Queen Yan squinted her eyes, and said, "But since you are the Marquis, you should pay more attention and don't always play with lowly things. Otherwise, the eldest son of my tenth brother doesn't know what he will be taught by you."

Qi Gui was dripping with cold sweat, bowing his head nonuo.

Greeting Queen Yan, Qigui's sedan chair left the palace just as Zhang Yizhi had seen King Yan and was leaving the palace.

Qigui stopped the sedan chair for a while.

Zhang Yizhi arrived in front of the sedan chair, bowed his hands and saluted: "Princess."

Qi Gui said: "Master Zhang, hurry up and excuse me. May I ask how is General Dugu Dan's injury?"

Zhang Yizhi pursed his lips and said, "Just waiting for the general to raise."

Qi Gui heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "If you need anything, just ask for rice."

Zhang Yizhi said: "Yes. Princess, why don't you go back to the mansion first and prepare some hangover soup. I heard that the master of the manor is going back to the mansion tonight."

Qi Gui was taken aback.Zhang Yizhi didn't look very polite.

Zhang Yizhi cupped his hands and withdrew.

Qi Gui couldn't understand why he had offended this military doctor Zhang, or whether he was always so eccentric.After returning to the Military Aircraft Mansion, let people prepare hangover soup.

Then he called Mrs. Chen Zhao, Mrs. Bai and others, and gave orders.

In the evening of that day, Yan Junxing returned home drunk.

Qi Gui rejoiced that while he had prepared the hangover soup, he saw Mrs. Chen Zhao and Chen Yiling skillfully greet him, and everything was prepared, so he realized it.

It turned out that everyone in the Military Aircraft Mansion knew that Yan Jun's guild would be back today, but no one came to tell her.

Qigui thought of Zhang Yizhi's not-so-polite look.Only later did he realize that he was reminding her.

Yan Junxing was so drunk that he got out of the sedan chair with the help of his bodyguard. Chen Yiling obediently stepped forward, took a handkerchief and wiped his sweat on tiptoe.Yan Junxing smiled and said, "Where is the princess?"

Chen Yiling pouted her mouth behind her back, and said courteously: "My mother made sober soup for Lord Hou, and Lord Hou is still the same as before. After drinking it, you can go back to rest?"

Mrs. Chen Zhao also came forward with a gentle smile on her face.

Yan Junxing nodded and said, "Princess, help me."

Qi Gui moved over slowly and held his hand.

Yan Junxing withdrew the hand held by Chen Yiling, squeezed her face, and said with a smile, "Are you listening at home?"

Chess Gui twitched his lips.

He helped Yan Jun walk to Chen Zhao's yard and sat down.Chen Zhao accompanied him in plain clothes.

Chen Zhaodao: "The Palace Master drank so much again, why don't the subordinates take another day off for the Palace Master tomorrow."

Mrs. Chen Zhao came up with hangover soup, and said with a smile, "Of course I should take a day off. I just finished a battle last year, and I have nothing to do right now, so Master Hou should have a rest."

Qi Gui took the hangover soup and handed it to Yan Junxing.

Yan Junxing brought it over and took two sips, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "Madam's tea is the best."

Then he told Chen Zhao what happened in the mansion these few days.And asked about the pension of the survivors.

Mrs. Chen Zhao glanced at Qigui, and said with a smile: "The princess is very capable. She has already entered the palace to ask for the favor of the queen, and extended the invitation to the reception to the wives of officials above the fourth rank. When the time comes, our military mansion will be able to It's been a lot of fun."

Yan Junxing looked at Qigui with great interest, and said, "Is it true?"

Qigui nodded.

Chen Yiling only came in from the door at this moment, and Qigui noticed that she had changed into another outfit.This is a beauty in bud, wearing a fresh goose yellow dress, it is even more moving than the calamus outside the window.

She smiled and said: "Master Hou, when the time comes, Yiling will perform the dance, you must come and see it."

Yan Junxing said: "Look."

Mrs. Chen Zhao also said: "Yes, Master Hou will go to see Yiling's dance performance every year."

Qi Gui yawned beside him.

Yan Junxing glanced at her and said, "Let's go back first."

Mrs. Chen Zhao hurriedly said: "Master Hou forgot again? Drunk, if you just go back to rest like this, you might get a headache when you get up. Why don't you just sit for a while longer, it's also good to talk and sober up."

Yan Junxing looked at Qigui and said with a smile: "No, I'll go back first. Later...in the evening, all generals are invited to come."

Qi Gui was shocked immediately and helped him to stand up.

Mrs. Chen Zhao knew how to advance and retreat, so she held back Chen Yiling, but she didn't want to keep her anymore.

Back at Shangwuju, Qi Gui waved away the waiting maid.

Yan Junxing was thoughtful: "Are you waiting for me?"

Qi Gui said: "I met Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Zhang said that you are coming back, so I made preparations first."

Yan Junxing said: "Which Master Zhang? Yizhi?"

Qi Gui said: "Yes, Mr. Zhang, the doctor of the army."

Yan Junxing pondered for a while, and said: "In the past, Li Yue came to the capital once a year, and he and I were both drunk. You also know that there are not many female relatives in the Military Aircraft Mansion, and many of my affairs are handled by Mrs. Chen. You are newly married , They are probably not used to it, so everything follows the old routine."

It's like explaining.

Qi Gui was next to him, and couldn't help but said: "The general goes to see Miss Yi Ling to perform dances every year? It's a pity that I don't know how to dance."

After hearing this, Yan Junxing laughed out loud for some reason, and said, "You even eat the little girl's jealousy?"

Qi Gui said: "It's not jealousy. If the general likes it, I can ask her to come over to be your side wife. It's just that she doesn't like me very much. I'm afraid that my life will not be easy when I marry her."

Yan Junxing said: "It's nonsense again. I haven't thought about it too much for the time being."

As he spoke, he held her face, kissed her, and said with a smile, "It's serious for you to give birth to an eldest son for me."
