Chapter 26 Preparing for the Banquet
The carriage stopped at the gate of Prince Pingchuan's mansion, Yu Cixin jumped out of the car, thanked Shangguan Ye who was in the car, and then walked lightly into the mansion.

Shangguan Ye lifted a corner of the curtain and glanced at the gate of the palace. Those exquisite carvings and the two stone lions at the gate made him lose his mind.

After a long time, he recovered and took a deep breath, and ordered the driver to drive away.

The carriage turned around in front of the palace gate and drove towards the palace.

Yu Cixin hummed a song all the way back to her small courtyard, her relaxed appearance showed that she was in a good mood now.

It's just that when she is in a good mood, some people are in a bad mood, such as Yu Zhiqian, and Yu Zhentian and Fu Taifu.

After the edict was read out to the Fu family, the news of Yucixin and Fu Yusheng's divorce spread.Many people said that the divorce is good, Fu Yusheng is a scumbag, and Yunxin County is mainly married to him, who knows what the future will be like!

Only Yu Zhentian and Taifu Fu didn't think so. For Yu Zhentian, this divorce made him lose a lot of help, and for Taifu Fu, he lost a thigh to hug.The originally negotiated conditions were also voided because of the divorce. It would be strange for them to agree.

As for Yu Zhiqian, she was in a bad mood because Fu Yusheng passed on to her what his father said after receiving the imperial decree. Originally, she was happy because of Fu Yusheng and Yucixin's divorce, but now she is fine. Fu Taifu's words made her feel angry.She locked herself in the room and smashed the porcelain in the room that had just been replaced two days ago.

In the next few days, Yu Cixin was happy to be at leisure, and there was nothing else to do except morning exercises in his own yard every day.

But then she received a message from Ren Qiucheng, saying that people who met her requirements had already been selected, and asked her if she wanted to go and have a look and screen again.

Yu Cixin, who was worried about having nothing to do, naturally went there happily, but this time she didn't climb the dog hole, but walked out from the main entrance openly and aboveboard.

Still in the green bamboo forest, Ren Qiucheng and a group of neatly dressed children were training. At a rough glance, there were about 30 to [-] people. They were divided into groups of two and fought with each other.

Yu Cixin was wearing a water-blue gauze dress, and watched them practice for a while before walking over. Ren Qiucheng saw her first, and then went forward and knelt on one knee to salute: "Master."

Seeing what Ren Qiucheng did, the rest of them followed suit one after another, calling Yu Cixin "Master".

These people have heard from Ren Qiucheng that they can get rid of their status as beggars, and now they can eat enough and wear clean new clothes every day. It is all thanks to the beautiful woman in front of them, so Ren Qiucheng wants them Feng Yuci's heart is the master, and he vowed never to betray him in this life, otherwise he will be destroyed by heaven and earth.

For Yucixin, this group of children of unequal ages are grateful from the bottom of their hearts. Many of them have never seen her before, and they don't know her identity. They only know that without her, they would not be where they are today.The master also called out very sincerely, without any pretense.

Yu Ci nodded to them with a hearty smile, and then told them to complete the training tasks entrusted by Ren Qiu. If they trained well, she would give them extra rewards.

Among the [-] or [-] people, there are seven or eight girls. If it weren't for Yu Ci's sharp eyesight, he would have thought they were all a group of boys.

Due to years of starvation, cold and malnutrition, these girls are very thin and their skin is shriveled and sallow.Yuci looked at them heartily, and suddenly remembered how she was when she first entered the orphanage in her previous life. Was she the same as them at that time?

She called those girls to her and asked them if they would like to be by her side. Undoubtedly, all the girls nodded in unison.Yuci patted the back of their heads and smiled.

Before leaving, Yu Cixin told Ren Qiucheng that in addition to the daily training, she asked him to ask the teacher to come over and teach these people how to read and write, not asking how good they are, at least they must be able to write and read, among them Also includes himself.

Ren Qiucheng will keep it in his heart, and promises to invite the husband after returning home.

Yu Cixin didn't take the eight girls away, but told them to learn the things at this stage first, and she will arrange their whereabouts when the time is right.

After leaving the emerald bamboo forest and returning to the palace, it was already Youshi, the princess ordered people to prepare dinner early, and waited for Yu Cixin to come back.

After having dinner with the concubine, Yuci returned to her courtyard. While lying on the bed, she suddenly remembered that this was the seventh day after the divorce, and eight days later it would be half a month. Within half a month after the divorce, a banquet was held to choose a husband and son-in-law. These two days of caring and playing, I almost forgot about it.

Thinking of this, Yuci stiffened a lot, sat up from the bed, rubbed her chin and thought carefully about how she would hold this banquet.

She doesn't want to get married yet, but according to the emperor's wishes, if she doesn't choose someone, he won't give up.Rather than passively being given a marriage at that time, she might as well think about how to use this banquet to break the emperor's mind and let her live a few more years.

As for what method to use?This was a bit hard for Yuci.

After thinking about it left and right, there was no result, and Yuci simply gave up thinking about it. Anyway, there are still so many days, and there is plenty of time to think about it.

So, she lay back, covered the quilt, closed her eyes and went to make an appointment with Duke Zhou.

In the next few days, Yu Cixin didn't go out again. She set the time for the banquet on the last day of half a month, and then, according to the emperor's request, sent invitations to all unmarried sons with good family backgrounds in the capital.

In order to avoid the embarrassment of all men at the banquet, Yucixin also invited many female relatives.

Now, apart from her daily exercise routine, she shuts herself in her room and packs things for the day of the party.

Thinking about the extensive and profound Chinese culture in her previous life, at this banquet, since she was asked to choose a husband, and the emperor promised to use any method, then she would use the things from her previous life to torture this group of aristocratic children in the capital. , Let them know that there is a topic that makes people want to cry without tears!

Besides, after her many inquiries, with all due respect, if all the people in this group can answer all the questions she prepared, the probability is basically zero.Afterwards, even if she didn't choose any of them, she still had reasons to shirk.

In this way, if the emperor proposes marriage to her again, she will be able to refute it by saying, "If a person who can't even answer the questions I asked correctly, what's the use of being married", and the emperor should not accuse her, after all, she is Very "intentionally" in choosing a husband-in-law.

What Yucixin has to do at the banquet is to let those who participate in the banquet know that none of you can answer the questions she asked Yucixin, so why would you want to marry her?
Thinking about it, Yuci began to look forward to the arrival of the banquet.Whether she can be chic for a few more years depends on the performance of those young masters at the banquet.
