Chapter 371 The Banquet 1

Chapter 371
"What the princess said is also true, the identity of the prince is a shackle."

"That's what I said!"

"Princess, the butler is here to talk to you!"

After Xiaoyue combed her hair, Xiaoyu walked in and said.

"Why did he come to see me so early?"

"Princess, have you forgotten? The uncle said earlier that he would hold a banquet to celebrate the return of you and the second young master. After that, it will be handed over to the housekeeper. At this time, it is natural for him to ask about it. Two days are the days of the banquet, and there are still some things to prepare, which may need to be reported by the Princess for approval."

As soon as the banquet was mentioned, Jingyao remembered that when they first entered Xilingbo's mansion, Xilingbo was about to hold it, but she postponed it because of some things.

"Okay, I get it!"

After washing up, Jingyao reckoned that the butler was also on urgent business, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered her so early.In this case, Jingyao went to meet the housekeeper first. The housekeeper did have an important matter to consult with Jingyao, that is, to hold a banquet, he had to post posts to each mansion. Naturally, other mansions would do so early, but only this He didn't know what to do in Shen University Scholars' Mansion.Is he going to invite him or not?Please, I will have to ask Miss Shen at that time, but Miss Shen's temper will inevitably make another fuss when she meets her natal family.Next, the princess and the second young master don't seem to want to see those members of the Shen family, what if he is not happy to invite the princess?
But if you don't invite me, uncle and Shen University's scholar's mansion are also colleagues, and Miss Shen is a housemate who also comes from Shen University's mansion, and there are Concubine Lan and the Fifth Prince behind her.If he didn't invite his uncle, he would definitely offend these parties, so he was hesitant and didn't know what to do.He had no choice but to ask Jing Yao for instructions.

When Jingyao heard this, she was overjoyed!Why don't you please? If you don't invite her, how can she slap the Shen family in the face?She and the Shen family had grown up with Liang Zijie, and they couldn't see each other's goodness anyway. Since there was such a chance to love each other, why didn't she do it?
"Next, post as usual. If you come, we welcome it. If you don't come, it will be discordant with colleagues, and the reputation of being arrogant has nothing to do with our Xilingbo Mansion."

Hearing this, the butler was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, the servant will go down to deliver the post to the Shen family."

"Okay, this matter needs to be troubled by the steward himself."

"It's natural, princess, don't worry."

Two days later, the people of Xilingbo's mansion gathered in chariots and horses, some gorgeous and some simple and low-key, all kinds of characters got off the carriages, all wearing luxurious clothes and expensive jewellery, greeting each other when they saw each other.The Xilingbo mansion is even more brightly lit, and the fragrance of fruit, flowers and wine are all over the garden.

"Princess, the old lady and the eldest lady of the Lu Mansion, and several young mistresses, Miss Ziyuan, are here."

As soon as Xiaoyu put the last water emerald dragonfly hairpin on Jingyao's bun, Xiaoyue came to report with a smile.

"Oh, Ziyuan is here, go, go and invite her to come over and talk to me. By the way, remember to tell her that I can't meet her in person, and ask her to forgive me."

"The Princess has to think too much, Miss Lu is a reasonable person, besides, there are a few nuns in the palace greeting her, she must be considerate." Besides, what is the status of her princess now, she just doesn't go to greet guests People don't know what to say.

In fact, today's banquet in the uncle's mansion of Xiling really made Jingyao difficult, because there is no headed mistress in the uncle's mansion now, so there is no one to entertain guests.If it is a banquet at another time, Jingyao, as the first lady in the mansion, should naturally take on the burden of entertaining, but this banquet is just for her and Erlang, so it is not easy for her to entertain the guests in person under such circumstances .

But there is no one in the mansion who can take action, so Aunt Jiang volunteered to go forward, but she ignored her identity.How could an aunt be able to do the job of being the mistress of the house? If she was really allowed to take on the job of entertaining guests, Xilingbo Mansion would become the laughing stock of the aristocratic circle in Kyoto in less than a day.

Jingyao had no choice but to ask Helian Fenghua for help, and when Helian Fenghua heard that this was the case, she immediately agreed.This was not a trivial matter for him, and he didn't know how he did it, but he went to invite several famous nuns in the palace, which made Jing Yao very grateful.Even slaves who come out of the palace are more respectable than ordinary wives, so when everyone saw the nuns from the palace in Xilingbo's mansion, not only did they not sneer, but they chatted very much with them. joyous.

"Okay, go and invite Ziyuan here, it's not time to go out now, it's quite boring to stay here."

"Yes, the princess!"

Saying that, Xiaoyue went out first, while Xiaoyu continued to tidy up Jingyao's clothes.

After a while, Xiaoyue walked in with Lu Ziyuan and her two maids.

"Wow, Jingyao, you are so beautiful today!" As soon as Lu Ziyuan entered the door, she saw Jingyao wearing a high-waist tube top dress in emerald green smoky water silk, and a soft pink satin jacket. The same emerald green cloak was very refreshing and pretty. standing.

Coupled with the pearl and jade jewelry of the Dragonfly series, it is as fresh as the sharp corners of the little lotus after the rain, which makes people want to get closer.

"You are beautiful too!" Yes, Lu Ziyuan, who was still wearing a light-colored dress, was also elegant and unparalleled.

"Hehe, you came here today when you are free, and you promised to come to talk to me, but you didn't come even once." Jingyao pulled Ziyuan slightly annoyed.

"I've wanted to come here a long time ago, not because I'm afraid that your housekeeper will have more things to do."

"No matter how busy you are, there is still time to talk."

"Jingyao has a lot of people here today, so people from the Shen family have also come." Lu Ziyuan had heard about the relationship between Jingyao and the Shen family, and she thought that the Shen family would not come. After all, most people have heard about the fact that Shen Jiao was demoted to the general house. This kind of slap in the face should be torn apart by the Shen family and the Xilingbo residence. Unexpectedly, the Xilingbo residence not only After posting a message to Shen's residence, someone from Shen's residence unexpectedly came.The guests couldn't understand for a while.

"I haven't gone out yet, so I don't know who is here from the Shen family?" Jingyao's eyes lit up when she heard that someone from the Shen family had come. She didn't expect that the Shen family would actually come, and she asked the housekeeper to deliver the post just to try Just give it a try.

"Old Mrs. Shen, Mrs. Shen is here, and several young ladies from the Shen family are also here."

"Oh, that's a good feeling!"

Lu Ziyuan didn't understand what was going on for a moment. In her opinion, the Shen family's aggressive presence didn't look like they were attending a banquet at all, it looked like they were here to find fault.She wanted to remind Jingyao, but seeing that Jingyao seemed confident and didn't care at all, she stopped talking and drank tea with peace of mind.
