"Don't summon those confidants just yet, give me another twenty days."
The prince looked at him deeply and sighed, "Okay."
...When Chu Mohan left the palace, he didn't ride a horse or a carriage.
He followed the deep-walled road at the entrance of the East Palace and walked out of the palace with heavy steps. He walked without stopping all the way to Prince Jing's Mansion.
He stood at the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion with his hands folded.
He looked up at the plaque "Prince Jing's Mansion" above the vermilion door and remained silent for a long time.
"Your Majesty..." "Yeah."
Chu Mohan came to his senses and asked Black Eagle, "Is the princess in the house?"
"Here I am."
"Go to Jinyuan."
"yes."
He walked slowly towards Jinyuan. The closer he got, the steadier his steps became. When he arrived at Jinyuan, he found that Chu Yiran was also there. On the Eight Immortals table, Su Xing'er took Lu'er and Chu Yiran with him.
Waitress, four people gathered at a table to play leaf cards.
When he entered the room, he happened to see Su Xing'er pushing the cards.
"Hey, what a fool!"
She laughed and stretched out her hand to several people, "Give me your money."
"Sister-in-law, you must be very lucky. I didn't even win when I played cards with you today."
"That's wrong, I'm not lucky, I'm very intelligent."
Little Xingxing ignored the angry Chu Yiran, "I'm willing to admit defeat and pay for it quickly."
"..." After Chu Yiran took out the money, he pushed the cards depressedly, "I won't play anymore. I keep losing. It's not fun at all."
Little Xingxing smiled like a naughty kitten and happily took all the money into her arms.
Chu Mohan's eyes hurt when he saw that money-obsessed little look.
"Ah...the emperor is back."
"..." Lu'er and one of the maids were startled, and quickly stood up and saluted, "See you, Your Majesty."
"Back off."
Little Xingxing carefully put away the money. Because she won the money, she also liked Chu Mohan. She asked him with a smile, "Going to court?"
Have you had breakfast?"
"Um."
Little Xingxing keenly noticed that he was a little depressed, "Are you in a bad mood?"
"No."
"..." Don't say pull it down.
Little Xingxing stood up and stretched. Chu Yiran looked at Little Xingxing, then at Chu Mohan, and rolled his eyes, "Sister-in-law, let me go to the kitchen to see if there is anything delicious."
"oh."
Chu Yiran left in a flash. Before leaving, he dismissed all the maids and took away Mo Yu, who had no vision.
"Hey, what are you doing? I want to protect my sister."
"My imperial brother is here, so I don't need you."
"..." Mo Yuxin said.
It is because your imperial brother is here that I have to protect my sister even more.
But before he could say anything, he was dragged away by Chu Yiran. Mo Yu raised his head and looked at the bright sun in the sky. He thought to himself, in this blue sky and white sun, Chu Mohan, a prince, should not be able to do anything worse than a beast.
It's something.
With this thought, he let Chu Yiran drag him away.
...inner room.
Little Xingxing could feel Chu Mohan's gaze on her without raising her head. The gaze was so tangible that it was difficult for her to ignore it. Her scalp was numb from the sight.
Finally I couldn't stand it anymore, so I raised my head and looked at him, "Why are you looking at me?"
"nice."
"ha?"
Chu Mohan would not be able to say these disgusting words before, but now he has no psychological burden. He looked at Little Xingxing's face and said sincerely, "You are very good-looking."
"..." Little Xingxing's pupils were shaking, "Are you okay?"
"What can I do?"
"Didn't someone take your body away from you? Otherwise, why would you say such things to me?"
Little Xingxing strode over and put her hand on his forehead, "I don't have a fever either."
"..." Chu Mohan rarely replied, and only frowned, "I really rarely praise you."
More than just a few.
He said unpleasant things to her every day, and in the end he was so angry with her.
"Has your conscience found out?"
"Um."
"..." Little Xingxing's eyes widened even more.
Why is this person so weird today?
She couldn't help but ask again, "Are you really okay?"
Chu Mohan was about to say that it was okay, but seeing her look like she had seen a ghost, he felt angry again. This damn woman had the ability to arouse his anger with just a few words.
He had already planned it.
In the remaining twenty days, be nice to her and never fight back when hit or scolded.
Chu Mohan suppressed his anger and said, "I just complimented you a few times, do you need this reaction?
It's like I've been abusing you before."
"Roughly the same."
"You..." Chu Mohan muttered silently in his heart, don't quarrel, don't quarrel, don't quarrel. After washing his mind for more than a dozen times, he finally calmed down, "Su Xing'er, can you do me a favor?
"
Little Xingxing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
No wonder he praised her, it turned out that he asked her for help with something.
She immediately relaxed and said, "Say."
"Help me throw a party."
...The banquet in Prince Jing's Mansion was held in a hurry.
It only took one day to arrange and prepare. Fortunately, Su Xing'er is Princess Jing. This identity is very useful and she still has charisma.
To suit the occasion, Little Star named this banquet the Lotus Appreciation Banquet.
She sent out invitations widely, inviting all the marriageable men and women in the capital who had never been married. Of course, not everyone could attend Princess Jing's banquet. Only the family members of officials of the third rank of Zhongzheng in the capital could attend.
The family members can be sons, daughters, or grandchildren. Because the conditions are relaxed, there are many men and women who come to participate in the lotus appreciation feast.
Little Xingxing's scalp felt numb as she looked at the crowd of women in costumes.
Ancient people were also too keen on having children.
This is too many people.
Fortunately, she only invited her legitimate sons and daughters, otherwise the number of people could have increased three to five times.
A group of female relatives, led by their sister-in-law or aunts and aunts, paid their respects to Little Xingxing one after another. There were so many people that Little Xingxing could not remember a single face.
Fortunately, there is Lu'er.
Lu'er was very comfortable handling such a large banquet scene. Under her arrangement, everything went in an orderly manner.
...Little Star will close the restaurant for the day today.
They asked the best cooks and waiters in the world to come to the palace to help and made dozens of tables of banquets. None of the women had ever tasted these dishes, so although the weather was very hot and there were many people, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
certainly.
There was also a small episode.
It is said that Concubine Wan Gui's nephew Wan Caili got drunk and got into a fight with one of his followers in the front yard. Chu Mohan only found out the reason after asking.
It turned out that the attendant was actually the brother of Wan Caili's concubine.
After Wan Caili fell in love with the concubine, in order to bring the concubine into the backyard, he promised the concubine to arrange a position in the Imperial Guard for her brother.
But now that the concubine has given birth to two children, there is no trace of the so-called position, and the concubine's brother is only allowed to be his attendant. After Wan Caili got drunk, he didn't know what happened, and reprimanded the attendant a few words.
The entourage had been dissatisfied with Wan Caili for too long, and he couldn't bear it anymore and started fighting with Wan Caili.
It wasn't a big deal at first, but there were so many people present that the whole capital knew about it as soon as the banquet was over.
