On this day, Su Xiyue was looking at the menu of the birthday banquet, when Aunt Qing opened the curtain and came in, "To inform the princess, someone from the Wuchang Marquis Mansion has arrived."
Su Xiyue's eyelids twitched after hearing this. Wuchang Houfu? Put down the list in her hand, "Do you know what it is?"
"Back to the princess, I don't know, but this person is the personal maid of the Crown Prince's wife. She said she would not speak until she saw you in person."
"Then bring her in." Su Xiyue remembered that Su Lian's dowry girl had her own spy. However, as time passed, there was no movement in the Wuchang Hou Mansion. In addition, Su Lian was
His skills were very good, and he was prosperous in the house, so he didn't pay much attention to it. Now when he heard that it was the eldest girl from Su Lian's side, he thought about what his aunt said that day.
It's a bit of a guess.
"Greetings to the princess."
"Get up and talk."
"Thank you, princess."
"Are you with eldest sister? What do you want from me?" Su Xiyue put on some airs. She should maintain a certain dignity in front of the servants.
"Back to the princess, Madam Prince asked her slave to come over and deliver a message to you, saying that Madam Leng intends to recommend several young ladies from the Leng family branch to Prince Rui. Madam Prince asked you to make plans in advance."
When Su Xiyue heard this, she smiled coldly. Mrs. Leng had a good plan. She didn't even think about her identity. She actually dared to plot against the prince? Could it be that the concubine of the Song Dynasty back then?
Didn’t Madam Leng remember the incident?
"I know, thank your wife for me. In addition, you can give her another message, saying that the Wen family has a Qin Princess. If the Wen family's daughter enters the Hou Mansion, I'm afraid her status will be...
It’s in danger!”
"Yes, I will definitely bring the message here. If the princess has no other instructions, I will leave first."
Su Xiyue winked at Liangchen, leaned back, and closed her eyes tiredly.
Liangchen sent the maid out of the house and stuffed her with a thick purse. "The princess is very happy with the way you and your master are doing in the Hou Mansion. As for Leng Shizi, as long as he is willing to make progress, he can still
Afraid of not having a chance? Now that the queen in the palace has been grounded in disguise, I believe the Crown Prince’s wife should also know this news. Which is more serious, I believe your master should also make a decision."
After Liangchen finished speaking, he glanced in the direction of the main house, "After all, the princess and the prince's wife are biological sisters. Although they are not the same mother, they are both surnamed Su! They are both daughters from the Anding Marquis Mansion. Now,
The third young lady’s marriage has basically been finalized. With the current situation in Beijing, is there any need to talk about it anymore? You can only say these words to your master when you go back, be careful that walls have ears!"
"My slave, I have taken note of it. Thank you sister for the tip."
This good time is the personal maid next to the princess, and her words probably represent the princess's thoughts. Her attitude is also the attitude of the princess! As slaves, they are still very clear about this. After taking that heavy
With the reward of silver, the little maid returned to the Wuchang Hou Mansion happily.
When Liangchen entered the room again, Su Xiyue was already lying on the beauty's couch. She didn't read the half-read menu and put it on the table. When Liangchen saw the smile on the beauty's lips, he knew that his master
He must be lazy again.
Sure enough, as soon as Liangchen finished what he had said to the girl, he saw Aunt Xu leading Lady Song in.
"That's it for this list. Madam Song used to be an errand in the palace. See if there's anything else you don't like."
"Yes, Your Highness." Madam Song has now been promoted to the steward of the dining room. In addition, she has been working as an errand in Prince Rui's Mansion before he was sent to Anding Marquis Mansion by Prince Rui. Naturally, she is a regular at these large and small banquets.
She has learned a lot about the royal banquet, what taboos there are, what pomp and circumstance, she is naturally well versed in it! It is appropriate for Su Xiyue to leave this matter to her!
"Back to Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with the names of the dishes on this list. It's just that if there are a few dishes in the middle that are repeated. Although the methods are different, they are similar, just like this Eight Treasure Duck and Lao Tan Mengyu.
Even if it’s a duplicate, the Longjing Shrimp and Celery Shrimp can also be considered a duplicate.”
"Well, then you just have to figure it out and delete the repetitive ones. There is no need to add new dishes. It just needs to be an even number and it is a lucky number."
"Yes, Your Highness."
"Mother Xu, this matter of purchasing will be handled by you and Madam Song together."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Su Xiyue waved her hands, and the two men withdrew again. At this moment, Liangchen finally couldn't help but laugh, "Your Highness, you have assigned all these affairs, and you are very happy!
How do you look like a mistress who is organizing a birthday party?"
Su Xiyue was also happy, "What do you know? If you do everything by yourself, your master and I will have to go see the King of Hell if I don't live to be twenty! There are so many capable people below. I will take care of it myself. They have nothing to do."
Yes, I am really stupid!"
"Your Highness, do you think the news that the Crown Prince's wife sent just now is true?"
"Not much! It must be true! I'm afraid this is not just Mrs. Leng's intention. However, if you want to enter Prince Rui's Mansion, you have to see if she has the ability? Just watch, this prince's birthday banquet,
This meeting will definitely be lively!”
"Your Highness, you mean that they might mention this at the birthday banquet?"
"Mrs. Leng is Su Lian's mother-in-law. From a certain point of view, she can also be regarded as my elder. If she says that a woman should be virtuous and generous, she should spread the branches and leaves of her husband's family, take in concubines, and recruit servants. What do you think?
,How should I reply to her?"
"This Mrs. Leng is really unwelcome! Otherwise, just don't invite her at all."
Su Xiyue shook her head, "I want to invite! Of course I have to invite! Not only do I want to invite, I also have to let her complete this drama! It is best to treat her as a noble lady in this capital.
My son, everything has been sung to perfection!”
Liangchen and Meimei looked at each other, obviously not understanding what Su Xiyue meant. Su Xiyue ignored them and just frowned slightly, thinking that Mrs. Leng was thinking about marrying the daughter of the Leng family into
Prince Rui's Mansion is thinking about having a concubine for his son. Are both of them real moves? Or should we say, one is real and the other is false? If so, which one is the real move?
Although Mrs. Leng is arrogant and mean, she is not a fool! If Leng Yufan does not want to take a concubine, then Mrs. Leng still insists on going against her son. Isn’t it worth the loss? Is it possible that she is just taking concubines these days?
Using this as a cover, in fact, what you really want to do is to plant an informant around Prince Rui? Firstly, it is to create trouble for yourself, and secondly, it is also to find out the news about Prince Rui's mansion?
