The rest were all princes and ministers, but the high officials like the Grand Master, the Prime Minister, the General, and the Six Ministers had left after a formality. After all, it was inconvenient for high officials like them to appear at the banquet, but they were
There are younger disciples present, which can be regarded as representing them. In addition, there are also the prince and the third prince. Therefore, there are more young people in the whole hall. In addition to these people, there are also envoys headed by Qin Siming, the envoy from the Western Wei Dynasty.
In the side hall separated by white gauze on the west side are the ladies headed by Huangfu Mei. Although Huangfu Mei is only the housekeeper of Prince Yan's Mansion, no one dares to look down upon her. Yan Xiaoyue is sitting next to her, and the rest
There are ladies and princesses from various mansions, as well as Princess Wuyang of the Western Wei Dynasty. However, most of the women are covered with veils, making it difficult to see their faces...
Among them, Yan Xiaoyue was the most active, pulling other women to drink wine frequently, making a lot of noise, which made the young men in the main hall feel restless, and their eyes secretly glanced at each other through the white gauze from time to time.
…
"Those young masters and brothers are all the heirs of my great Chu family. Princess, do you take a fancy to them?" Perhaps considering the face of Great Chu, Huangfu Mei unconsciously put her own words when speaking to Princess Wuyang.
I have become more accustomed to it...
Princess Wuyang's face was also covered with a veil, so her face could not be seen clearly. When she heard this, she said in a cold voice: "Mrs. Huangfu is joking!"
A pair of eyes inside the veil was focused on Qin Siming, but he sighed softly in his heart...
"I think the third prince is very graceful!" Meng Ling'er, the adopted daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs next to her, said with a sweet smile, her eyes secretly paying attention to Princess Wuyang from time to time. It would be good if the Chu State's government was disrupted...
As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden response, and on the other side, there was a woman covered with a veil. At first glance, she had an indifferent temperament. At this time, she suddenly asked: "Mrs. Huangfu
, I would like to take the liberty to ask, can someone send me a handwritten congratulatory gift at your night banquet today?"
The girls looked at her strangely, wondering why Miss Zhao, who had always been taciturn, would ask such a question.
"Oh... Miss Zhao, I don't know the gift I received today. I don't know who sent it. I don't know who sent it. I have someone go check it out?" Huangfu Mei was also a little surprised. The girl's name was Zhao Jingjing, but she
She is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Palace and is known as the most talented woman in Yandu. However, she is quite introverted and rarely attends such gatherings...
Zhao Jingjing was silent for a while and said softly: "I don't know who he is. I only know that his surname is Wu, but I met him by chance. I know that he also received an invitation from your house, and the congratulatory gift was a handwriting!"
"The surname is Wu?" Huangfu Mei thought for a moment, but did not remember any Wu family in Yandu City. At this moment, a person suddenly flashed in her mind, and she immediately called a maid and gave some instructions.
After a while, the maid came back and replied: "Grandma Mei, Divine Doctor Wu did not come to attend the banquet, but someone sent a congratulatory gift on behalf of Divine Doctor Wu, and the gift was a calligraphy and painting!"
Zhao Jingjing frowned slightly and asked softly: "Is Dr. Wu the Dr. Wu who has been rumored recently in Yandu City?"
Before the maid could answer, Yan Xiaoyue rushed to reply: "Besides that bastard, who else is Doctor Wu!"
Zhao Jingjing said "Oh" but said nothing more.
Huangfu Mei was confused and ordered: "Go get the calligraphy and painting!"
"Yes, Grandma Mei!" the maid responded, but she did not leave. Instead, she opened her mouth as if she was hesitating about something.
"What the hell do you have to do...cough cough..." Huangfu Mei swore unconsciously and hurriedly coughed to cover it up. However, the girls all knew her, so they just covered their mouths and chuckled, not paying attention.
, of course Princess Wuyang and Meng Ling'er were a little dumbfounded, lamenting that rumors are worse than seeing them.
The maid hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and whispered in Huangfu Mei's ear. Yan Xiaoyue ran over to listen curiously, and the other girls also looked curiously. Huangfu Mei smiled hoarsely, while Yan Xiaoyue gritted her teeth.
…
Finally, the maid handed Huangfu Mei a piece of broken silver...
