Arrests

Becky hurriedly rubbed her eyes to determine if the lethal look from before was an hallucination.

Na Zhi still looked normal, and Becky asked with great confusion: "Sister Na Zhi, I see you always wear this outfit, why is that?"

That gaze instantly became piercing, and he waved his hand to drive Becky away: "Let's go, let's go, what do kids know? Let's play over there."

In a short period of time, Becky has been advised to play twice. She puffed her mouth and said as if talking to herself: "Just play, I won't talk to you."

She summoned the little bear: "Little Bear, let's go."

Among the three, Becky has become the eldest, wandering aimlessly with her two younger brothers.

She was a little tired of such banquets. It was boring to go from one restaurant to another over and over again.

The main reason is that there is no environment for Becky to integrate into. She is out of place here and has to come.

There was no adult to play with, the old man couldn't say a few words, and she offended all her peers.

Now, she has begun to think about quitting, as if she can get sick, she won't use it if she gets sick.

Thinking of this, Becky started to get confused. She searched around and found her mother, saying that she didn't feel well.

Becky's mother did not put too much energy on her younger daughter this time. Her eldest daughter, who was already married, had a firm control over her mother's heart.

Finally, she found a quiet room for her unwell daughter to rest.

Knowing that Becky was not feeling well, Little Bear felt uncomfortable and didn't know what to do. He stayed outside the room during the entire party.

The maid was happy to have some free time and found a small handicraft to play with.

The banquet time passes faster than other places. When the guests are almost here, the banquet can begin. Dozens of people gather around a long table and eat common food by candlelight. Occasionally, special dishes will be served.

, everyone just takes one or two bites and forgets it.

On the table, inside and outside, you can see at a glance the difference in status and who you want to make friends with. This is the most suitable occasion.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer is sitting at the head of the table. He is the host of this banquet and deserves the most honorable position.

After a pre-dinner drink, the Chancellor of the Exchequer will say a few words.

He stood up so that people far away could see and hear him.

"First of all, I would like to congratulate His Majesty the King on his long life and thank you all for attending this dinner. Secondly, it is almost the end of the year. I hope that you will be in good health and everything will go well in the new year."

The whole table looked at him with relief.

After saying the blessings, everyone talked about their own things.

Nazhi couldn't muster any energy anyway. After looking at everyone on the table, there was only one person he wanted to see.

Her father had asked before where his family's benefactor was.

Nazhi couldn't say that Zuo Lan was absent for no reason, as that would be too shameful, so he could only excuse himself by saying that he was busy and would visit him another day.

Her father sighed and said that it was all his fault and that his family's benefactor should have gone to thank others earlier.

This matter was just covered up.

As the youngest of her generation in her family, she is at the end of her generation, and next to her is her eldest nephew, who is basically the same age as her. Although there is a generation gap between the two, they are the closest because of their age.

This eldest nephew is called Nawu, and he belongs to the King's Guard. It can be said that in the entire Guard, there are all young and promising noble youths. It is a very popular position, and many people squeeze their heads to get it.

In the Guard, the people you get to know are important resources for the future.

Nawu, who attended the meeting today, was still wearing the uniform of a guard. There was a golden eagle embroidered on the back of the white uniform, and he looked so majestic.

Then I poked my aunt on the elbow and asked, "Hey, what's wrong? Are you feeling depressed?"

Na Zhi hummed and said nothing for a long time.

The eldest nephew understands that this means that his aunt is very angry, but this anger is not as simple as it appears.

For example, she wants something very much, but she doesn't say it. Her eyes tell you that she wants it, but you need to guess what it is.

Even if you guess correctly, she will belittle this kind of thing in various ways.

This is the case now.

"I passed by a jade shop today. Many of the people we know went to buy there." Then I immediately started testing.

Nazhi continued to remain silent.

Then I thought for a while and then said: "Let's not talk about it anymore. What's so good about rocks? I heard that the youngest daughter of the Bemon family was injured in Valley City."

This sentence moved Nazhi's eyes and nodded slightly.

It was somewhat effective, but it wasn't this. So I looked for possibilities again: "Oh, by the way, a particularly good tailor appeared in the capital recently. He sews all kinds of clothes. They are very beautiful. I think I should go and have a look.

.”

This time, Nazhi's expression was completely frozen, his chest was heaving, and his mood was not very stable.

Could it be because of the clothes? Thinking of it, my aunt is always dressed in black gauze at every banquet, so that’s really the problem.

Then I had a direction and said quite proudly: "I'll invite a tailor to my house and let her dress her up. I'm sure, auntie, you will become popular in the whole city."

Nazhi's chest rose and fell, he turned his head very slowly, and spoke with great satisfaction: "Shut up! Mouth!"

So I'm confused, what's going on?

He thought of another possibility. Could it be that his aunt was being bullied?

Thinking of this, he immediately asked: "Did someone bully you? Tell me and I will get it back."

"have!"

"Someone really dares! Name?"

"asshole."

"I know, I'll go right away."

Na I rolled up my sleeves and saw that I was about to stand up in the next second. Na Zhi quickly stopped me and warned me: "What are you doing? Family dinner, are you crazy?"

Then I instantly changed into a smiley face: "Hey, you're not crazy, what happened?"

"Don't ask, it's a waste of time."

"Oh well."

Well, on the surface I am obedient, but in fact I have made up my mind to pursue this matter to the end.

He tried his best to make his aunt happy, so he thought of a topic and said mysteriously: "Do you know why I wear guard clothes?"

Na Zhi became slightly interested. Usually, his eldest nephew never wears work clothes at banquets.

The interest I had just aroused disappeared in an instant. Maybe I had a mission tonight, but it wasn't a big deal.

She felt that her nephew might want to brag about something to her, so she didn't want to listen.

Then I lowered my head and pointed my finger in the direction of the head of the table imperceptibly: "For that person."

Because he only pointed once, Nazhi didn't find out who the person being pointed out was, but a chill came to his heart. This person had a high status and was at the banquet at his home.

From then on, Nazhi felt that everything on the table was boring. No matter how mysterious Nawu acted, she never showed any curiosity.

Halfway through the dinner, there was a continuous flow of chaotic footsteps outside the hall, as well as the sound of whistles and weapons clashing.

The people at the table were thinking about what was going on when they heard a voice coming from outside: "Surround this place! Don't miss every exit!"

Another series of sounds were heard, and the finance minister, as the host of the banquet, stood up and decided to see who was causing trouble at the door of his house.

The nobles at the table were all at a loss, curious and frightened. When they heard this, they knew that there was an army coming from outside.

Nazhi understood that her nephew's action was coming, and she was very angry about it. No matter what, she couldn't come to her house to do this. It was a banquet now.

The Finance Minister stood up, and the door of the hall opened on both sides. A man wearing a white military uniform with an eagle on his back walked in. Behind him, there were two soldiers, soldiers of the King's Guard.

The chancellor asked: "What do you mean? Why did you break into my house?"

This guard officer, who seemed to have a high position, didn't even pay attention to the finance minister. He slowly put on gloves on his hands and said in a friendly command tone: "Mr. Qingwei, please come with us."
