Chapter 69 Love

  Wen Ning was in a daze for a while.

  She was full of Wen Tingchun, and it was the dust-cleaning banquet being held in the imperial palace. When she first heard "Princess Showa", she was in a daze.

  But she still remembered that if she wanted to enter the palace, her current attire would be extremely inappropriate. She saluted and said to go in and change clothes, but the father-in-law stopped her.

   "The princess said, I just invited the girl into the palace to talk about the family. It's a bit late now, and the girl doesn't need to bother about dressing up."

  Then bowed and asked Wen Ning to get on the carriage.

   Seeing this, Butler Qin turned around and wanted to call Shang Linglan.

  The father-in-law is obviously very good at observing words and expressions, and he can tell what he is going to do at a glance, and said: "The princess only invited Miss Wen, please rest assured, our family will take good care of the girl and return it to Zhao."

  Wen Ning turned her head to look at Wen Fu, nodded to Butler Qin, and got into the carriage.

  After the initial bewilderment, Wen Ning actually realized why Princess Zhaohe was looking for her.

  Because in her previous life, she also looked for her.

  Probably because of Pei You.

  Wen Ning sat in the carriage, put away her worries about Wen Tingchun for the time being, and put her mind on Princess Zhaohe.

   In her previous life, Princess Showa looked for her a year later. At the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Emperor Jiahe intended to marry Pei You and her, but Pei You declined in court, which made Emperor Jiahe, who had always favored him, almost want to punish him.

   After that, I struggled for several months, and one day, Princess Showa suddenly came to her.

   Instead of announcing her into the palace like today, he personally found the courtyard where she was.

   That was the first time she saw Princess Showa, who was over twenty years old, but still looked like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, wearing a complicated palace attire, looking graceful and luxurious.

   She sat down and turned her head to look at her: "Are you Pei You's favorite woman?"

  At that time, she had already dealt with Zhao Xizhi several times, and she knew the eyes of unruly and willful people when they looked at their rivals. Looking at Princess Showa, she knew that there was no jealousy in her eyes, but more curiosity.

  In the previous life, Emperor Jiahe bestowed a marriage but failed, and it was not mentioned again in the end, and Princess Showa did not have more entanglements.

  Later she saw her twice, but at that time she was already "Mrs. Pei".

  Wen Ning pondered, at this time in her previous life, she and Pei You hadn't had much interaction, so Princess Zhaohe naturally couldn't find her.

But in this life, Pei You has never met "Xiaoya". She clearly saw him having a private meeting with Princess Zhaohe at the last New Year's Eve banquet. The mansion expelled her from the mansion to threaten her.

   I don't know if Pei You and Princess Zhaohe have anything in this life.

  Princess Showa and why did she recruit a woman who "admired Pei You" into the palace.

  The father-in-law who came to pass the message claimed that his surname was Li. When the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace, he led Wen Ning into the palace sedan chair again.

   When walking outside the Qingyi Hall, Wen Ning could faintly hear the sound of silk and bamboo coming from it.

  The Qingyi Hall has always been used to entertain foreign guests, and the Ryukyu prince's cleansing banquet must have been held in it.

   But the sedan chair did not stop for a moment, and continued to carry Wen Ning forward. Not long after, they arrived in front of a palace. Wen Ning looked up, and there were three words on the gilded plaque - "Chaolu Palace".

-

  In the Qingyi Hall, silk and bamboo bursts, and dances and music don't stop.

  As Wen Ning expected, the cleansing feast for Prince Ryukyu was here.

  At this time, the banquet was at its climax, cups were exchanged, and there was constant laughter between cups and cups. Jiahe Didu listened to that Wang Ziyi told some interesting things about Ryukyu with a smile on his face.

  Although the ministers in the next seat also laughed, their eyes flashed with contempt and contempt.

   This Ryukyu is indeed a small country. A prince whose demeanor is not even as good as the son of a rich family like them.

   Still don't know etiquette, don't know how to be ashamed, and openly bring a brothel girl to the palace to accompany her around.

   It's just that His Majesty has a good temper, tolerates his nonsense, and listens so patiently to him talking about sesame and mung beans.

   But contempt is contempt, Dayin's demeanor of a great country cannot be lost, he has been a guest from afar, and there are not a few officials who toast Wang Ziyi.

  In the lively banquet, there was only one corner that was relatively deserted.

  Pei You's official rank is not high, but he was the only one present in the Duke's mansion, and he was sitting where Duke Pei should have been sitting.

   is at the forefront of the first row.

   It is reasonable to sit in this position, and there will be many people who come to curry favor and toast. But after Pei You was promoted, his style was domineering. When the young princes saw that he even dared to join his fathers, who would dare to call him brothers? It would be a disaster if someone made a mistake and was reported to the imperial court.

  As for the older officials, this son is in the limelight, and he is young. He is at an age that does not know the heights of the sky and the earth. He even participates in the peak of his own head. It is better for them to sway less in front of him.

  So the banquet was half over, and Pei You was still sitting at the table drinking by himself, and no one came to chat.

  In the palace, no one could hold a knife, and no one would openly bring the guards of the house, so tonight it was Wang Qinsheng who accompanied Pei You.

He didn't feel that his young master was left out in the cold. It would be better if he drank less alcohol. The attendants of the Prince of Ryukyu were obviously prepared to drink. He watched several ministers get dizzy from drinking, and was helped down to sober up and rest. up.

  But he felt that something was wrong with his young master tonight, he seemed to be staring at...

   Is it the Ryukyu prince, or the beautiful girl Jiao'e next to the prince?

  So it turns out... His son likes this?

  Wang Qinsheng looked at the woman's neckline, which was still low to her chest in winter, and blushed with embarrassment at that white chest.

   "Young master." Wang Qinsheng blushed and took a step forward, blocking Pei You's sight, "Shall we go outside for a walk?"

  It doesn't look like a serious woman at first glance, don't look at it!

  The female relatives next door are gone, and they went to the garden to watch. If you want to see it, go find a lady from a big family!

  Pei You stretched out a hand, and directly pushed him away, his eyes still fixed on the direction of the female Jiao'e: "You go to the gate of the palace and wait for me."

   "Young master!" Wang Qinsheng whispered helplessly.

  Pei You's eyes fell on his face: "Qin Sheng, do you still remember that I am a son?"

  The faint coolness, obviously displeased.

  Wang Qinsheng Nuonuo lowered his head and got out of the way.

   "Go." Pei You waved his hand, "Go and get the carriage ready."

  Wang Qinsheng had no choice but to look back at the woman who was stuck in the arms of Prince Ryukyu in public, and stomped away.

  Wang Qinsheng left, and Pei You's eyes kept falling on Prince Ryukyu's side.

   is interesting.

  He asked Tu Bai to investigate, but nothing was found, but he saw Yingyao in the palace.

  Wang Ziyi who came to Dayin was notoriously absurd and unruly when he was in Ryukyu, so he was not loved by the Ryukyu monarch.

  He went to Tianxiang Pavilion on the first day he came to Beijing. Yingyao was the top card in Tianxiang Pavilion. It is not unusual for him to find her, and it is not unusual for him to bring her into the palace in a grand manner.

   What is strange is Na Yingyao.

  Yingyao brought a jug of wine herself, and Wang Ziyi has been drinking from her jug ​​since the banquet began.

  She either blocked or blocked him, as if she was determined not to let him drink a drop of the wine in the palace.

   But the calculation was a little omission.

  Drinking was too prosperous tonight, and Wang Ziyi was in her arms, so she drank even more happily. Yingyao's pot of wine was about to bottom out.

  Pei You took the wine cup and walked towards Wang Ziyi.

-

  Wen Ning sat in the seat of His Royal Highness Chaolu Palace Master somewhat cautiously.

  Even in her previous life, when she entered the palace, she only participated in banquets, and never really entered the palace where the royal family lived.

   At first sight of this magnificent and magnificent place, it is inevitable to be embarrassed while being surprised.

   "Please come inside, girl."

   After a while, a nun led her into the inner hall.

  The Chaolu Palace was given to Princess Showa since she was born. The main hall is resplendent and magnificent, and the inner hall is not much less.

  Princess Showa's full name is Chu Mingyue. It is said that because of the night of her birth, Emperor Jiahe was away in person, and the empress gave birth alone, accompanied only by a bright moon.

   While Jia and Di were far away in the north, they looked at the same bright moon that night and missed the queen and the unborn child. After returning to the palace, the princess was given the title of "Showa" and named "Mingyue".

  As soon as Wen Ning entered, she saw Princess Zhaohe sitting barefoot on a low couch, fiddling with a branch of peach blossom on the table. Seeing Wen Ning coming in, her eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved: "Come on, come and sit here."

  Wen Ning was about to salute, but she said again: "Don't be too polite, come here quickly."

  Wen Ning had no choice but to hastily leaned over and walked over.

  Princess Showa is not much different from her appearance when she first met her in her previous life, but the way she looks at her is not curious and probing, but rather accommodating and intimate.

   "I heard that you love Prince Pei, don't you?" Princess Showa's brown pupils shone brightly, "Then do you know that Prince Pei is engaged and has an unmarried wife? Have you met her?"

-

   "I have heard for a long time that Ryukyu spring baths strengthen the body and prolong life. I have not had the opportunity to try it myself. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will thank the prince for reception."

  Pei You held up a lamp in front of Wang Ziyi, with slightly curved lips and a warm expression.

  The prince of the Duke's Mansion, who is used to being deserted, took the initiative to chat, and many people looked sideways.

  Wang Ziyi also felt flattered.

  Although he still can't know all the officials, the ones sitting in the front row must be noble. Before that, he watched the audience stand still alone, and secretly speculated about the identity of the other party.

  Yingyao hangs out in romantic places, and there are many dignitaries in the capital. Even though Pei You has never been to Tianxiang Pavilion, how can she not know such a popular young man who is often at the top of the topic list in the capital?

  She immediately leaned into Wang Ziyi's ear with a smile and said his identity and name.

  Wang Ziyi was even more satisfied with her, and squeezed her waist affectionately.

   "The day Mr. Pei set foot on the Ryukyu, Yi will welcome you!" Wang Ziyi spoke in suffocated Chinese, raised the empty wine glass to Yingyao, and signaled her to pour the wine.

  Yingyao bent her wrist, her expression changed.

  The hip flask is empty.

  Pei You had a flickering smile in his eyes: "Girl, why not go to the desk to get wine."

Yingyao squeezed the handle of the flagon tightly. Wen Ning said that someone at the banquet waited for an opportunity to poison him. If it was true, the poison would be in the wine on the table. Wine, how can you get rid of it?

  She moved her lips, wanting to say something, but Pei Shizi's eyes were dark and bright, staring at her deeply, as if he could see through no matter what she said.

  Yingyao's face became paler, even Wang Ziyi noticed the abnormality, pinched her waist and said: "Yaoyao, go get the wine."

   "It turns out that Prince Pei is also interested in Ryukyu spring baths. I wonder if Wen Qi is lucky enough to go with Prince Pei someday."

When Yingyao was flustered and didn't know what to do, a young man in green shirt suddenly came, and while speaking, he tilted the wine pot in his hand, filled Wang Ziyi's wine glass, poured another glass for himself, and handed the wine pot to Ying Yao: " This wine is wonderful, you might as well give the prince a try."

  He dared to drink himself, so there would be no problem with alcohol.

  Yingyao immediately took the whole pot of wine.

  Pei You narrowed her eyes slightly, Wen Qi came to the rescue, it seems that Wen Ning went to Tianxiang Pavilion to find Yingyao for this purpose.

  Yingyao watched the three men drink up the wine in their respective hands, returned to their respective desks, stared at Wang Ziyi for a long time, and felt relieved when she saw that he was no different.

   On the other side, Wen Qi sat down, also staring at Wang Ziyi.

  Wen Ning didn't mention Yingyao's matter to her, but the jug of wine in Yingyao's hand was exactly what Wen Ning asked him to go to a few days ago. The jug was fired by him himself, so there is no mistake.

   Seeing that Yingyao has never allowed Wang Ziyi to touch wine other than the jug, she has a care in her heart.

   Just seeing that her jug ​​was empty, he took his own wine and went over.

  It’s just that Prince Pei, I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or...

  Wen Qi looked up at Pei You, who was also looking at him.

  His eyes fluctuated, unable to see the depth.

   The two toasted politely, and drank another glass of wine together.

   Today's cleansing feast is entirely in charge of Honglu Temple, that is, Wen Tingchun.

  I don't know what the brother and sister are doing.

  Pei You thought so while drinking wine.

   It was just drinking, and the tip of the tongue was filled with an unusual taste.

  Pei You frowned.

   I'm going to spill blood, hahahaha
