Chapter 240 The Guide to the Banquet

Officials celebrating the New Year were assassinated, and everyone from the emperor to the court officials took it very seriously. With this emphasis, Mr. Xiaowen's vacation was gone. On national statutory holidays, Mr. Xiaowen had to work overtime, and Yu Zhi felt sorry for him.

Of course, this would be more believable if she wasn't chewing on big bones and meat.

Thinking of being able to move out of Wu'anhou Mansion after the first lunar month, Yu Zhi felt that the big bones in his hands smelled better. Even if they only lived in Pingbei Hou Mansion for a month or two, they would go out to work in Beijing, and Yu Zhi felt that

It's not too much trouble.

Living in Wu'anhou Mansion, she was under the boss's nose. She wanted to do something, and so many pairs of eyes were watching her. It was very inconvenient for any trouble to reach the boss's ears all at once.

It's different when she lives in the Pingbei Hou Mansion. She is the big leader, and all the servants in the house must obey her. The so-called sky is high and the emperor is far away, that's what it means!

On this day, as soon as Wen Jiuxiao returned to the mansion, she was invited over by Mrs. Hou because of the incident in Prince Ping's mansion. The reason why she didn't mention it before was because it was the Chinese New Year? The yamen was busy, how could she take it?

Are these messy things going to disturb the third child? Besides, isn’t the third daughter-in-law okay?

Of course, there is still a hidden worry in her heart. The third child takes Mr. Yu too seriously, and he has always been a bold and right-minded person. Who knows what he will do when he is angry? That is the royal princess... She

Afraid of the third child getting into trouble.

As for whether Ms. Yu will tell the third child? In the end, Ms. Yu failed because she was not knowledgeable enough. She may not have been able to tell that Princess Anle was here. And she tried it, but Ms. Yu did not tell what happened in Prince Ping's Mansion.

I took it seriously and didn't even mention it to the third party or the premise.

While Mrs. Hou breathed a sigh of relief, she also had a huge headache. How could Mrs. Yu help the third child with social activities in the future?

Why are you telling your son now? Isn’t it the New Year? The most important thing is that Mrs. Hou quietly inquired that there are generals guarding the Taoist temple where Princess Anle is, and the only one who can send troops to guard the Taoist temple is the emperor.

Princess Anle couldn't get out of the Taoist temple, and there were soldiers guarding the outside. Even if the third child wanted to do something, he couldn't.

Oh, Mrs. Hou also has her own selfish motives. Sooner or later, the third son will know about the affairs of Prince Ping's house. If he finds out from outsiders, wouldn't he resent her as his mother? She doesn't want to be separated from her third son.

Wen Jiuxiao didn't know how she came out of her mother's yard. Her mind was swollen and filled with all kinds of thoughts. No matter how nice her mother's words were, or how she used the guise of being good for him, Wen Jiuxiao knew it in her heart.

, my mother is not as selfless as she said.

He has been able to read people's faces since he was a child, and when he got older, he even guessed people's hearts. He didn't know everything about what his mother was thinking, but he knew about 80-90% of it. It was because he knew that he was so disappointed.

Wen Jiuxiao thought that he had made it obvious enough, but his mother still didn't take his wife seriously. Zhizhi was almost tricked, and it took her mother so long to tell him.

And Zhizhi...she is not really outspoken and dull. How could she not know that others have set a trap for her?

However, when she came back from Prince Ping's Mansion, she complained that the tea in Prince Ping's Mansion was mediocre and that the snacks were not exquisite enough, but she did not say that she was almost being plotted against.

Wen Jiuxiao clenched her fists. She really wanted to see her immediately and ask her why. Is he so untrustworthy? Can't she rely on him for a while?

He strode forward with only this thought in his mind. When he was approaching the yard, the wind blew and he suddenly came back to his senses.

No, he can't go to see Zhizhi like this, it will scare Zhizhi.

Wen Jiuxiao stopped, closed his eyes, suppressed the turbulent emotions in his eyes, rubbed his face again, took a few deep breaths, and then walked into the yard.

From a distance, you can see that the door curtain of the main room is open, and there is a table in the middle of the door. Yu Zhi is sitting in front of the table facing the door, writing something in his hand.

What is this for? Wen Jiuxiao was suspicious.

As I got closer, the table looked more and more familiar, and I was sure it was the one in the study. Is this woman going to practice calligraphy?

"What are you writing about?" Wen Jiuxiao asked.

Yu Zhi raised his head, as if he had just noticed him, "The Third Master is back." After a pause, he said with a smile: "Write something."

Write something? It’s not surprising that Wen Jiuxiao suspected that it was actually a single stroke of this woman’s handwriting, right? It’s not very bad, it’s just not obvious that it’s good. Occasionally, there are fewer strokes written. As for things, apart from the script,

, what else is in this woman’s mind?

"Write poetry?" Although he knew it was unlikely, Wen Jiuxiao still asked.

Yu Zhi rolled her eyes at him, "Of course... no! How can a little girl compare with the number one scholar? After all, people like me can only write low-level poems like 'The moon is round and hanging on the horizon', right?

Wen Zhuangyuanlang?"

Wen Jiuxiao coughed twice uncomfortably, feeling a little short of breath, "Didn't I say nothing?"

Yu Zhi rolled her eyes at him again, devaluing her poems into a low level. She didn't say anything yet? Well, she admitted that she didn't have the skills to write poems. "The moon is round and hanging on the horizon" is already

All her skills are gone.

But is she despised by him like that? Saying a few nice words to coax her can kill him?

At this moment, based on past experience, Wen Jiuxiao wanted to run away, but couldn't bear his curiosity. He stretched his head to look at the table and asked, "You wrote... a guide to the banquet?" What do you mean? Very confused.

"Yes, 'Guide to Banquets'!" Yu Zhi admired his masterpiece and said with great emotion: "Are you still worried about not understanding the unspoken rules at various banquets in the capital? Are you still worried about the explicit rules at banquets?

Are you worried about being shot in the dark? Are you still feeling sad because you can’t understand the twists and turns of famous ladies? Here is a banquet guide carefully created by Master Yu to help you interpret the rules of communication among ladies and understand their habits.

Perfectly avoid all kinds of rhetorical temptations, all kinds of insinuations, all kinds of calculations, all kinds of big pits, small pits, pits within pits, and chain pits, achieve a magnificent life, and reach the peak of life."

She cast a charming look at Wen Jiuxiao and hooked his chin with her fingers, "Wen Zhuangyuan, do you want one?"

Wen Jiuxiao was dumbfounded and was completely stunned by Yu Zhi. What was the banquet guide? And Master Yu... did you mean herself?

"Don't you really need one? Not only women, but men also need to protect themselves. For the sake of being an acquaintance, I'll give you a discount, only five taels of silver. This is a valuable life experience, it's okay

Interesting information. Look here, someone invites you to swim in the lake, watch fish, and enjoy lotuses..."

Before he finished speaking, Wen Jiuxiao picked him up and said, "Don't go near the water. If you get together, you will fall into the water, right?"

Yu Zhi's expression froze, he met Wen Jiuxiao's gaze and smiled, "What, ha, you already know that, ha?"

Wen Jiuxiao looked at Yu Zhi, making her uncomfortable, "Why are you looking at me like that? It's so scary."

"In Prince Ping's Mansion..." Wen Jiuxiao thought about what to say, but finally gave up and said directly: "You didn't say anything when you came back."

Facing Wen Jiuxiao's accusation, Yu Zhi felt a little guilty, "If I said I forgot, would you believe me?"

She really forgot. Originally, she was going to share with Wen Jiuxiao how she killed everyone and subdued all the royal ladies. Wasn't the barbecue so delicious that she just forgot about it?

When she remembered it again, it was already a few days later, so what else could she say?

After seeing through the outer chamber, I no longer want to struggle.
