Chapter 289 Lou Family Banquet
This day,
The Lou family celebrated the guests with great banquets, celebrated the Lou Ben's achievements in his official career,
As the guide for Lou Ben, Jing Haoying was naturally invited.
Lou's classics are the crown prince and tutor, and the important minister of the court. Lou Ben is now in the officialdom, as if there is a sign of prosperity.
Of course everyone is very proud of their face. The banquet scenes between the Cheng family and the Wan family are much grander. There are many noble officials and nobles coming and going, even the prince and the princess came to congratulate him in person. After all, this is the most powerful one around him. people.
The prince was the king, so he sat in the main seat. In addition to Lou Jing as the master, the others sat in the first seat, and sat in the order of the seating position.
Jing Haoying happened to be together with Ling Busi. Liang Qiuqi also participated in the plan to counterattack King Yong in the later period. Liang Qiuqi is indeed more eye-catching than the fat man. When he saw Jing Haoying leading the army to take the initiative to counterattack, he didn't care about hiding. He took the initiative to report to Jing Haoying and also contributed his strength.
Jing Haoying knew that this was arranged by Ling Buyi, and felt that this kid was a little conscientious. When he was doing military achievements, Jing Haoying also planned to add Liang Qiu to a new deal, but he was unwilling to become an official, so he was willing to follow Ling Buyi and repeat it. This is true for inquiries, so Jing Haoying didn't force him.
After the two drank for a while, the prince also came over and said with a smile:
"Zisheng, Zixiu, come on, let's have a good drink,
Speaking of which, you don't know yet,
Some time ago, my father asked Zisheng to come to my prince's mansion to help me?" He said with an excited look on his face, obviously very happy. After all, Ling Buyi's weight is also extraordinary. The emperor sent him over, obviously because he was optimistic about his prince.
When Jing Haoying heard this, he immediately said:
"Oh? Yes, I really haven't heard of it,
Then I have to congratulate my cousin and Zisheng on their alliance!”
The prince laughed loudly after hearing this, obviously very happy.
Ling Buyi still looked deserted. When he heard Jing Haoying say this, he stared at Jing Haoying for several times, probably trying to see if what he said was true or false.
The prince over there continued:
"Zi Xiu, otherwise you can help me too,
I am so tired of being the prince. You can come and share the burden with me, okay?"
Jing Haoying quickly fought when he heard this. He didn't need to go through this muddy water. Although he was closer to Queen Xuan, he was actually good with Concubine Yue and the third prince. There was no need to get involved in it for the time being.
"I'll forget it, I even wanted to push the guard down, and my uncle didn't agree. You'll make more trouble for me,
I want to spend more time with my family!”
The prince was not angry when he heard this. He was always generous and said with a smile:
"You, you, don't change your lazy personality,
By the way, when it comes to Shaoshang, Shaoshang will come this time. After the banquet, let’s find a place to have a drink.
For Shaoshang,
I really have to thank her for it.
Since Shaoshang entered the palace, her mother's health has improved a lot and she has become cheerful. This is all due to Shaoshang.
Zixiu, you really married a good bride. I am so envious!" As he said that, it might be because he remembered that he was unable to get married to his beloved, and he was a little disappointed.
Seeing that the other person was in a bad mood, Jing Haoying couldn't say that the Crown Princess was good, after all, although the Crown Princess looked awkward, the situation was indeed a bit unreliable, and she was petty, so she quickly changed the topic:
"Ahem, my aunt is in good health, so we younger generations will feel at ease!
By the way..." Just as I was about to say something else, I saw Lou Jing walking over with a wine bottle.
"Haha, what are you talking about? I'm so happy. Come here and don't bother me!"
Jing Haoying thought to himself, I know that I'll come again, I'll bother you, and Jing Haoying is the most annoying of such a hypocritical guy, so I don't have any good face.
The prince welcomes exception.
"Haha, why is the Grand Tutor disturbing? This is Lou Mansion, you are the master!"
When Lou Jing saw that the prince respected him so much, he stroked his beard proudly. However, seeing that Jing Haoying and Ling were both expressionless, he quickly coughed awkwardly and said to Jing Haoying:
"It's all the credit of Prince Jing this time.
Thanks to you, who helped to support that incompetent nephew, today’s banquet was here!" He said thanks, but he didn’t see any gratitude on his face. It seemed that Jing Haoying was a little surprised.
Jing Haoying was not used to his faults, and said sarcastically:
"Teacher Lou is joking. You are the tutor of the prince's cousin. How could I not do my best to help? Of course, I will do my best to support your sons and nephews, right? Taughter Lou?"
The old face of Lou Jing was a little unreasonable. He naturally knew that some things could not be hidden from smart people.
But the prince couldn't see it yet. He thought that Jing Haoying's help to Lou Jing was considered to be helping him in disguise, so he immediately smiled:
"Haha, Zixiu is right. Everyone is their own people, so it's time to help each other!"
Jing Haoying and Ling Buyi looked at each other and were speechless. Brother, that's not what we meant!
Even Lou Jing couldn't help but tremble slightly. Fortunately, he had the most contact with the prince and knew the prince best, but he didn't think it was strange. Instead, he felt that the prince was not very smart so that he could show his talents.
At this moment, a noise came, and Lou Jing still said that it was caused by the servants, and couldn't help but yell:
"What are you doing? Your Highness and Ministers are here, what kind of morality is it!!!" I thought to myself that I can't control others, and I can't control you?
As a result, I did follow my servants when I came in. There were only a few families. They ran to their master's house to talk about some things about the backyard. After hearing this, everyone was a little riot.
Jing Haoying and others also received the news, which was not a big deal.
However, because Cheng Shaoshang and the Crown Princess were both here, Jing Haoying and the Crown Prince followed the Lou family to the backyard to see the fun.
...
Time returned to an hour ago, in the backyard,
Mrs. Lou heard from somewhere that the He family wanted to reconcile with the Lou family. Now the He family is also developed and much stronger than before, so she has also thought about it.
However, now that Lou Ben has been in office, she is not easy to suppress, after all, she has to be a little cautious.
Just now, a wife mentioned He Zhaojun. After all, a group of old ladies love gossip. From ancient times to the present, He Zhaojun is now a news figure, so she couldn't help but mention it.
The jealous He family is now making a fortune, so they say that He Zhaojun's horoscope is not good, and he actually married a traitor and also implicated many relatives.
Of course, there are also people who want to curry favor with the He family and talk to the He family, saying that they are also blinded.
Mrs. Lou hurriedly said:
"Hey, actually, I like Zhaojun's child the most.
They are quite outstanding in appearance,
To be honest, this matter is not a matter of Zhaojun. There are many people who misjudged the husband and son-in-law.
Zhaojun is just one of them. Speaking of which, Zhaojun is also a poor child!" After saying that, he seemed to have a pity on his face, and he pretended to wipe the corners of his eyes.
Having understood Mrs. Lou's meaning cleverly, she also said that the Lou family intends to renew their relationship with the He family, and immediately said:
"Yes, yes, the He family's girl is really good. She looks one of the best in our capital!" As she said that, she seemed to remember it just now, she said in surprise:
"Madam, speaking of this, I remember that your Lou family seemed to have had an engagement with the He family,
If I want to tell me, the loyalty and courage of the He family is admirable, and the daughter of the He family is also loyal and unyielding in the face of the bandits. It is admirable. It is the character of a good bride.
Anything better..."
Mrs. Lou immediately nodded in agreement.
“That’s right, that’s right!”
Then he immediately looked at Mrs. Lou Zhong,
"I wonder what my brother's wife thought about it? I really like Zhaojun, this child, who loves him so much!"
Mrs. Lou Zhong felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. She was already soft-hearted. Although her eldest son had just started an official, the He family was in full swing and didn't know how to refuse for a while.
Wang Yanji was smart and said immediately:
"Today is to celebrate Ah Ben's entry into the government. How can we discuss other people's marriages? Let's talk about it later!"
Mrs. Lou was unhappy when she heard this. This little rogue, her husband had just entered the government, so she dared to talk back. She wanted to rebel. She shouted fiercely:
"Shut up, elders speak, how can you interrupt!" Then he pretended to be gentle and looked at Mrs. Lou Zhong and smiled:
"My brother, what do you think?
After all, A Yao and Zhaojun have been engaged for many years, and the two families are also aware of the truth. Now it’s time to renew their relationship. What do you mean!”
The Crown Princess was watching from the side and was moved. Lou Jing was a hard-core supporter of the prince. If the Lou He family had a friendship, then the prince's power would be the icing on the cake, and he immediately smiled:
"In this way, it is indeed a good thing to come. If the two ladies don't mind, I'm willing to protect the media myself!"
Although the Crown Princess is often angry in front of several princes and princes, she is still very important in the eyes of these ministers and wives. After all, if nothing unexpected happens, she will be the future queen!
When the eldest lady of the Lou heard this, she was overjoyed and said gratefully:
"Oh, that's great. With the Crown Princess as a guarantee, then our Lou family is so grateful!" After saying that, he looked at Mrs. Lou Zhong with a proud look on his face.
