Chapter 454: Don’t eat for free, one person gets a banknote
"If you hadn't sent someone down, I might not have been able to get in. You don't even know how cruel Princess Dongsi is, and she even reported to the officials to arrest me." Ye Qianning was a little annoyed when she mentioned it.
"I think she is quite fierce."
"Yeah, I've never seen such a fierce old woman, she's so evil."
"Evil? Evil door?" He Lianchen asked.
"That's right, I always feel like she is like the hell mother-in-law..."
"What is Hell's mother-in-law like?" He Lianchen was very curious.
"that is……"
The two children started discussing without betraying anyone, completely unaware of the Dongsi Prince Consort sitting opposite them, whose face was already ugly.
"Ahem...Miss Xiang is so happy today." Prince Yu saw Princess Dongsi coming in and coughed suddenly, interrupting their whispers.
"I was originally enjoying myself, but I met someone who was a disappointment." Ye Qianning said and took a look at Chu Yue who came in.
Chu Yue pretended not to see it, walked in, and a row of maids from behind came up with food.
Prince Yu smiled when he heard this but didn't answer.
"Miss Xiangjia, you didn't come to see the Nanyuan envoy. You have something important to talk to Prince Yu and the young prince." Chu Yue sat down and said with a smile on her red lips.
Helian Chen was a little surprised: "Did you come to us specially?"
"I knew it was you who was hosting the banquet in Dongsi, so I thought of what my aunt told me a few days ago." Ye Qianning said.
Helian Chen's eyes lit up: "Is Qin ready?"
"Well, my aunt asked me to tell you that you can go and get it."
"That's great." He Lianchen was delighted.
Chu Yue chuckled softly: "The important thing to Miss Xiang is a piano? Haha, children will always be children."
"Isn't Qin important?" Ye Qianning stared at Helianchen.
"Then why does Princess Dongsi speak rudely and mock me for being a child?"
"Maybe she can't play the piano."
"Oh...that's really a joke." Ye Qianning suddenly realized.
Helian Chen nodded heavily.
The corners of Xi Liuyuan's mouth raised slightly, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Prince Yu: "..."
My silly nephew!
Dongsi's face was already darkened.
Chu Yue's smile froze, and she clenched her fingers in her sleeves, warning herself not to get angry.
"Haha, princess, don't mind. Children's words are unbridled, children's words are unbridled." Prince Yu laughed and spoke in an official tone.
"Of course not." Chu Yue nodded and smiled: "I have been in Kyoto for more than half a month and I haven't officially visited you. It's really rude. Dongsi will be saying goodbye and returning in a few days. Today I specially prepared wine and food as a gift to you.
.”
The maid put the food on the table, then brought the most famous drunken drink in Kyoto, Xianrenzui, and filled it for several people.
"Princess Dongsi is so polite." Prince Yu smiled.
Xi Liuyuan raised his eyes lightly: "Did Princess Dongsi and the consort represent Dongsi to meet me in the west?"
"Exactly." Chu Yue smiled.
"The delegation led by the Fifth Prince of Dongsi congratulated them on their birthday. Why didn't the Fifth Prince come forward?" Xi Liuyuan asked again calmly.
Chu Yue's face froze slightly when she heard this, and she looked at him and said: "Fifth brother has been ill recently, so I have left all matters to you. If there is any negligence today, please forgive me, Prince Xilan."
"The style of the country in Dongsi is really open, and women can handle the affairs of the court." Xi Liuyuan's voice was cold and high-pitched, with a childlike innocence that had not yet completely transformed.
"The prince has misunderstood. As a woman, I do not dare to talk about the affairs of the country. Today I am just following the instructions of my fifth brother to entertain the envoys to show the friendship between Dongsi, Xilu and Nanyuan. There is nothing else." Chu.
Yue speaks sincerely.
Qin Huai, the Prince Consort of the East, secretly observed Xi Liuyuan.
"If I had known that the princess was in charge, Xiao Wang would never have attended the banquet." Xi Liuyuan didn't wait for Dong Si to recover, and said calmly: "Regardless of state affairs, banquets are a waste of time."
Chu Yue's expression changed slightly, and she guessed Xi Liuyuan's intention.
Ye Qianning secretly sighed, this guy really has something.
Prince Yu must not worry about himself. To survive in the cracks, the most correct choice is to say less.
He Lianchen didn't have much insight. Apart from knowledge, he didn't know much about court affairs and didn't want to learn. He turned to look at Ye Qianning and said, "After dinner, I will go with you to the general's mansion to pick up the piano. OK?
"
"...Okay, let's eat first. I'm so greedy during the lockdown. Don't drink from the pot of immortality on your table. I'll take it with you when you go back later." Ye Qianning whispered.
"I don't drink."
"Well, I'm a little hungry. If you can't finish it, give me some." Ye Qianning turned to look at Luo Wen.
Rowan knelt down, picked up the bowls and chopsticks and served her dishes.
Seeing this, He Lianchen curled his lips and put the food on his own table in front of Ye Qianning's table: "I'll give it all to you."
"Thank you, I'll ask my aunt to make some cakes for you later." After Ye Qianning finished speaking, she turned around and opened her mouth.
Rowan picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth naturally.
Helian Chen's little brows furrowed and he couldn't help but said: "How old are you, and you still have to be fed when you eat?"
She is just as lazy as ever.
Ye Qianning chewed a mouthful and swallowed it, and said leisurely: "Who is allowed to have such conditions?"
"..."
It’s true!
Helian Chen was a little jealous. The Xiang family's aunts were the same as those of other families. The little fat man was so lucky. Not only was his aunt nice, but she also had so many.
"Cough." Prince Yu coughed lightly.
Helian Chen turned around to meet Uncle Wang's warning eyes, muttered and closed his mouth knowingly.
Ye Qianning had nothing to do with herself, leaning on the chair, opening her mouth to eat the food brought to her mouth by Luo Wen.
Chu Yue cast a dissatisfied glance and guessed in her heart what the Prince of Xilan meant, but she was a princess, and if she said something, it was rumored that it would be difficult to do it in Dongsi.
We can only pin the matter on the consort Qin Huai.
Xi Liuyuan stood up: "Everyone is chatting, Xiao Wang will not accompany you."
"Prince, stay." Qin Huai stood up.
"Xiao Wang said that gatherings that don't discuss state affairs are a waste of time." Xi Liuyuan's calm voice was a little lazy.
"Prince, please don't leave in a hurry. Today, one is to establish friendship between various countries, and secondly, there are indeed some things that I need to discuss with the Crown Prince." Qin Huai said respectfully.
"If it is a state matter, please invite the fifth prince of your country to come and discuss it in detail. As for you - it will be spared."
"Yes, I will invite the prince to come here. Your Highness, the prince, will wait for a moment." Qin Huai picked up the wine glass on the table and said, "I am offering a toast to the prince."
Xi Liuyuan lowered his eyes slightly, and when he raised his eyes again, there was a hint of fun in his eyes, and he sat down leisurely: "Xiao Wang is too drunk, so there is no need for this glass of wine."
"Yes." Qin Huai drank the wine and sat down with a smile.
When Chu Yue saw Xi Liuyuan sitting down, she felt a little relieved. After all, they had something to ask for from Xi Yan. If Xi Liuyuan left, wouldn't all their previous efforts have been wasted.
There was only one eyesore at the moment, she thought, her eyes falling on the fat man who was only focused on eating.
I just hope she will finish eating quickly and then find a reason to kick people out.
Prince Yu held the cup and his eyes were wandering. What do Dongsi and Xilin have to say?
I always feel that Nanyuan was invited by them to make up the numbers.
Princess Dongsi is very thoughtful and the consort seems to be a bad person. This is definitely a Hongmen Banquet.
After drinking the wine, he turned his eyes to Ye Qianning, who had been eating: "Miss Xiang, you have a good appetite. I will give you this too."
"No need." Ye Qianning hesitated: "Luo Wen."
Luo Wen understood, put down the bowls and chopsticks, stood up and walked out of the private room. He said something to the maid who was standing outside the private room, and the maid hurried towards the kitchen.
"You can still eat it?" He Lianchen was surprised.
"That's a lot. Normally I can eat three bowls of rice in one meal, and less than half of more than 20 dishes." Ye Qianning has a physical problem, and his appetite is indeed large, which is larger than that of an adult man.
Prince Yu put his elbows on the table, tilted his head and looked at her: "You are so young and eat so much, aren't you afraid of accumulating food?"
"Grandpa Zhan made digestion tablets." Ye Qianning said.
Prince Yu: "..."
The condition is really good!
"I heard that Beili Immortal Zui's food is excellent. Prince Yu, please give it a try, Your Highness." Chu Yue greeted.
Xi Liuyuan gave a faint glance.
The shadow guard behind him took out a silver needle and inserted it into the food to test, then nodded towards his master.
Only then did Xi Liuyuan pick up his chopsticks and take a layer of fish meat into his mouth.
Prince Yu didn't have much appetite, so he just drank Xianrenzui one sip after another.
Not long after, there was a knock on the private room door, and seven or eight boys barged in, each carrying two dishes and placing them on the table in front of Ye Qianning.
Seeing this, Chu Yue frowned.
Luo Wen picked some of them up and put them in a bowl, then brought them to the little baby's mouth.
Ye Qianning was sitting on the chair, her posture was leisurely, and she didn't regard herself as an outsider at all.
"Miss Xiang, if you eat so much greasy food at such a young age, you should check your body more often, lest you get any symptoms without knowing it, which could lead to a catastrophe in the end." Chu Yue couldn't help but said.
"I checked, and there's nothing wrong with it."
"Some problems are easy to be ignored. There is a doctor with excellent medical skills beside me. Miss Xiang, if you don't mind, I will ask someone to take you over and have a good check-up."
"Grandpa Zhan's medical skills are very good. Princess, don't bother me." Ye Qianning knew that she wanted to send her away.
She was deep in thought. She had not disclosed anything since she entered Kyoto City. Catching up with the city during the lockdown must have disrupted their plans.
What's hidden in this banquet is not simple.
"No trouble, Miss Xiang ate too much..."
"It turns out that the princess thinks I eat too much." Ye Qianning interrupted her and glanced at everyone: "Today, the princess booked the entire restaurant. I ate too much, so I didn't eat for free. Luo Wen, give it to everyone here
Each of you will receive a silver check."
"yes."
Luo Wen put down his bowl and chopsticks, took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and walked to Chu Yue. One banknote fell on the table.
Chu Yue's face turned green. Who could be insulted by a banknote?
Luo Wen then walked up to Xi Liuyuan, placed a banknote on the table, and then handed it to the two shadow guards behind him.
The hidden guard did not reach out to pick it up.
Rowan stuffed it directly into their chests: "My lady said, everyone present will get one, you're welcome."
Shadow Guard: "..."
It’s so outrageous, it’s the first time I’ve encountered something like this.
There was no trace of happiness or anger on Xi Liuyuan's face, but if you look closely you can notice that the corners of his jade-like mouth moved slightly.
