Princess Ningyang was deeply touched. It wasn't until the car stopped at Linshui Palace that she put away the emotions shown on her face.
The steps paved with white marble are rich and luxurious, and the majestic palace is imprinted with the majesty and dignity of the imperial power. Each brick and tile seems to still tell the story of the previous dynasty. But if you look closely, you will find that the huge palace has been aged for many years.
It was in disrepair, the white marble steps were dimly stained, and even the tiles had lost their color because they had not been replaced for a long time.
A palace that loses its owner will eventually lose its vigor and vitality, and those rarely noticed details faintly reveal the decline of the previous dynasty.
Princess Ningyang's expression was slightly restrained. When she raised her head again, all the guests who had already arrived at the banquet came to greet her.
Princess Ningyang said goodbye and turned her eyes to Cui Weizhen. She said with a smile: "I didn't want to mobilize the troops like this, but Wei Zhen and Zhenniang have been away from the capital for a long time, and everyone misses you very much. It just so happens that we miss you so much."
Let's take the opportunity of this banquet to get together so that everyone can have a good conversation. You can't restrain Zhen Niang later, we need to drink."
The ladies who came to Mingzhou Mansion with Princess Ningyang immediately burst into laughter. One of them was the granddaughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, because her grandfather was Cui Weizhen's boss. The relationship between the two families was good, and with her status,
Because of this, she had the confidence to interrupt on this occasion.
"Your Highness is joking, everyone in the capital knows that Uncle Jing Ning listens to Mrs. Ning Guo the most. If Mrs. Ning Guo wants to drink, how can he stop her? Today, we will definitely have a great time drinking."
Cui Weizhen: "..."
Princess Ningyang and others were teasing and joking, but Cui Weizhen couldn't stand up to these women's troops, so she had to say: "Ms. Li, please stop teasing me. If friends come from afar, Wei Zhen will naturally entertain them well. It's just that Zhenniang has a bad drinking ability, so please invite Your Highness and
Ladies, please show mercy."
As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Ye Zhenzhen with a very threatening tone.
In order to prevent a petty person from taking the opportunity to retaliate in the future, Ye Zhenzhen had no choice but to put down her look of watching the show and stopped Princess Ningyang and others from teasing her: "Okay, okay, please stop bullying him. Be careful with me and you."
It’s urgent.”
Everyone laughed more and more cheerfully.
Princess Ningyang gave Ye Zhenzhen a fake look: "Look, you're here to protect me. It's in vain that we came all the way to see you, you little heartless one."
Ye Zhenzhen looked at her with a half-smile.
Princess Ningyang knew she was in the wrong, so she touched her nose and said angrily: "Oh, you are just talking too much, and you are neglecting the guests."
The officials, squires and wealthy people who belong to the Mingzhou Prefecture are afraid to say anything. In fact, from the laughter and curses just now, they can be said to have opened their eyes.
It turns out that the Cui family is deeply favored by the emperor. Let’s not talk about the holy family for the moment. Just look at the closeness between Princess Ningyang and the Cui family. Who wouldn’t be jealous?
There are also those noble ladies from the capital... their identities are no longer a secret. Almost everyone has a better background than the ones here. In the past, they would never have had the chance to participate in a banquet of this level. Now with their
It was only because of Mrs. Ning Guo's honor that I was lucky enough to join. This must be said to be a unique opportunity.
The most shocking thing is that Mrs. Ning Guo has a good relationship with these noble ladies. This group of people, who are obviously the proud daughters of heaven, treat Mrs. Ning Guo with intimacy and respect. It is really shocking.
.
The energy of the Cui family is indeed unimaginable. Originally, there was news that Cui Zhifu's changes had offended the forces in the court and lost his favor. Some people had some doubts in their hearts, but now they are a little uncertain.
