Chapter 20 Princess Night Banquet (Part 1) [June Debt Repayment Chapter 3]

Yu Shiji hurried back to his mansion without waiting for the court. He did not go to the Qi Palace. Although the Qi King sent people to find him twice at noon, Yu Shiji was still unwilling to go to the Qi Palace. ("" website 7*

Of course, Yu Shiji also heard that something happened in Fengdu last night. He originally planned to see King Qi, but when he learned about the specific situation, he changed his mind and stopped seeing King Qi.

Yesterday, Yu Shiji told King Qi that he could in turn provoke the relationship between Yang Yuanqing and Yu Wenshu, but Yu Shiji did not participate in the planning and implementation of the specific plan.

When he heard that more than 100 dead men sent by the King of Qi were killed, he was also secretly shocked. More than 100 people were killed, which was definitely a big deal. The emperor was calm, as if nothing had happened. This was very strange, and the emperor did not summon the king of Qi because of this.

All the unreasonable manifestations made Yu Shiji keenly realize that the emperor probably already knew the details of this matter, and because of the importance he paid attention to it, he did not show any expression.

The King of Qi was too stupid and actually sent his secret death warriors to do this. Why didn't he send the guards? If Yang Yuanqing did not dare to take ruthless measures, the matter would not be serious. How could more than 100 death warriors be killed?

A sense of crisis quietly penetrated Yu Shiji's heart. He knew very well that he was on the verge of a quagmire pool. At this time, he had to take it back in time, otherwise he would fall into it, and his future, his wealth and life would be ruined.

Yu Shiji's carriage drove into his own mansion like a speeding sped. His wife Sun was surprised when he came back early, and he quickly came out and said, "Master, come back so early today?"

"Madam, pack my luggage immediately. I'm going to Luokoucang for a few days."

Yu Shiji was very smart. In the afternoon, he found something for himself. Gong County, not far from Luoyang, was building a Luokou warehouse. This Luokou warehouse has extremely important strategic significance for the grain supply in the capital. Two days ago, the emperor urged him to inspect when he had time, and today he happened to take the opportunity to go there.

Sun quickly packed up his belongings and asked a concubine to follow him. At this time, Xiahou Yan hurriedly came back from outside with an excited look on his face. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple.com

Seeing that Yu Shiji was about to go out, he was stunned, "Father, are you going out?"

Yu Shiji nodded and said to their mother and son: "If the King of Qi sends someone to find me, you will say something happened in Luokoucang and I was sent by the emperor to check the situation. You don't know anything else."

Both Sun and Xiahou Yan agreed. Yu Shiji remembered something again and said to Xiahou Yan: "I thought about the last time the Pei family's marriage, and I thought about it later. I can still consider it. If you have no objection, I will ask your mother to propose marriage. What do you think?"

"Father, the child doesn't want to get married yet."

Yu Shiji suddenly raised his face and said, "You are not young anymore. Don't hang out with those playboys all day long. You should also consider your future. Get to know more children from aristocratic families and see what kind of literary talent they have. Those who will become high-ranking officials in the future."

"The child doesn't want to follow the literature, he wants to follow the martial arts." Xiahou Yan whispered.

"I want to be far worse from Wu. Look at Yang Yuanqing, who is only eighteen years old, is already the chief executive of a state. That is because he fought one bloody battle after another. If you can't do it, you should go to study honestly and find a way for your father to arrange a county magistrate next year, but you have to be successful yourself, do you know?"

When Sun heard that his son had hope of becoming a county magistrate, he hurriedly stepped forward and said to his son: "Remember your father's words and don't mess with those playboys again, it will not be good for you."

Xiahou Yan lowered his head, "Yes! The child understands that tomorrow will have a few friends who invite the child to hunt. They are all from aristocratic families. Can the child go?"

"As long as it is a family, there is no problem, you can go!"

Seeing that it was getting late, Yu Shiji got into the car and leaned out of the window and said, "Your marriage can be discussed when I come back. In short, you can't offend the Pei family."

He ordered, and the carriage drove out of the gate and rushed out of the city. Xiahou Yan looked at his father's car and walked away. He frowned and said, "Mother, I really don't want to get married."

"I'll talk about this matter when your father comes back. I hope you get married as soon as possible. You are nineteen years old and the marriage cannot be delayed."

Sun ignored his son and turned around and left. Xiahou Yan scratched his head, feeling very distressed. In fact, it was not that he didn't want to get married, but that the woman in the Pei family, named Pei Xier, was said to be mediocre and boring, so he didn't want to marry a boring woman.

Pei You was wearing a newly made green silk skirt, her hair was tidy, her face was thinly coated with powder, her eyebrows and eyes were also drawn with fine strokes, her forehead was covered with flower ornaments, and her lips were lit, and she dressed in a particularly handsome manner. She hurriedly walked across a bridge and quickly walked to the small courtyard where Minqiu and Xier lived.

Although the Pei family does not pay too much attention to the rank of legitimate and illegitimate as the Yang family, there are differences in treatment between legitimate and illegitimate. The most typical one is the residence, which is wide and narrow. There are also regulations for unmarried women. Two legitimate daughters share the same building, and five common daughters share the same courtyard.

Therefore, Pei Minqiu and Pei Xier lived in a two-story building, both of whom lived upstairs, each with an embroidery room.

The weather was hot at this time, and both of them were sitting in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air. Unlike Pei You's careful makeup, Pei Minqiu and Pei Xier both looked down on a swing without applying makeup. Pei Minqiu sat on a swing, wearing a lilac striped skirt, holding a green silk fan in his hand, and his light body swayed with the swing, the fan swayed, and the cuffs slid down, revealing a piece of snow-white jade arm like lotus root, and asked with a smile: "Xi'er, why did Princess Leping think of asking us to her house for a banquet?"

Pei Xier lazily lay on a clean and cold talc. She was particularly afraid of heat. The hot season made her lose interest in everything except blind dates.

She said listlessly: "I don't want to attend any princess' night banquet, nor do I want to know why she invites us. I don't want to go anywhere tonight, and it's still cool at home. I just slept until dawn with this stone, and no one is allowed to pull me."

Pei Minqiu secretly broke a small branch from the flower branch next to him, covered his mouth and smiled, and threw it over. The branch just fell on Pei Xier's neck. Pei Minqiu shouted in panic: "Xi'er, get up quickly, there is a caterpillar on your neck, which has fallen from the tree."

Pei Xier also felt something on her neck, which scared her to scream, and stood up in a hurry, slapped her neck desperately. A branch about an inch long fell from her neck. She was stunned and slowly looked back. Pei Minqiu had already covered her mouth and smiled so hard that she leaned back and forth.

"You damn girl, how dare you tease me!"

Pei Xier pounced on him with hatred. Pei Minqiu jumped off the swing, carried her skirt and ran towards the gate of the yard. The laughter echoed in the yard like a silver bell.

As soon as she ran to the door, Pei You hurried in from outside, and the two almost collided. Pei You pushed her away and touched the half-moon bun that took her an hour to combed. It seemed a little loose. She frowned and complained: "You two dead girls, what are you screaming and laughing in such a hot day?"

Pei Minqiu and Pei Xier saw Pei You at the same time. Both of them had their eyes lit up and they exclaimed in unison: "Sister You, the bride is not as handsome as you!"

The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help laughing, turning their heads and covering their mouths and laughing. Last night they discussed whether Pei You went to the banquet with a face-to-face or putting on makeup like the bride.

Pei You's face darkened and said unhappily: "When you go to a princess' banquet, you always have to put on makeup. Be more solemn. This is polite. It's not like you two wild girls. You are so careless and you are not polite to your master."

Pei Minqiu quietly stuck out his tongue, stepped forward and pulled Pei You's arm and said coquettishly: "It's such a hot day, we don't want to put on makeup. Just Sister You just need to come forward. We'll follow you. Just say that the two little girls are still young and don't understand the rules."

Pei You had no choice but to say helplessly: "Then let's go! I guess the princess's carriage has arrived."

They walked out of the mansion together, and Pei Xier walked behind, but secretly applied a little powder on her face while Pei You and Min Qiu were not paying attention.

At dusk, Yang Yuanqing also rode a horse to the prince's mansion. Yang Zhao invited him to the banquet tonight. As soon as he arrived in front of the mansion, he saw several carriages of Yang Zhao parked in front of the mansion, as if he was about to go out.

A young guard officer rushed up and bowed: "General Yang, Your Highness said that the banquet in the palace will be changed to Princess Leping's Mansion tonight. It was His Highness the Princess who requested him to ask the general to wait, and His Highness the Crown Prince will come out immediately."

Seeing that such a guard officer was burly, with extraordinary appearance, and seemed to be a little younger than him, Yang Yuanqing had never seen him before, so he asked with a smile: "May I have never seen you with this general's name?"

The guard officer bowed and said, "I am here to be Qianniu Bei, who is beside the prince. His surname is Chai and his name is Shao. He only entered the palace as a guard last year."

Yang Yuanqing glanced at him again and it turned out that he was Li Yuan's son-in-law Chai Shao, and now he is the prince's guard.

"Yuan Qing!"

Yang Zhao walked out with the support of several guards, followed by his three sons, Yang Neng, King Yan, Yang Tong, King Yue and Yang You of Dai, and three young ladies in palace dress. The daughter of the head is the crown princess Wei, who is the mother of the king of Dai, and the other two young ladies in palace dress are Yang Zhao's partial concubines, both of whom are Liu, and the same is true for the title of official position, so they are called Liang Di, the mothers of Yang Neng and Yang Tong respectively.

Behind them were a large group of eunuchs and palace maids, and hundreds of guards were closely guarding the left and right.

Yang Yuanqing hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Yang Yuanqing met His Royal Highness the Prince. I'm sorry, I'm late."

Yang Zhao smiled and waved his hand and said, "It should be that I'm sorry. Today was originally a treat at my mansion, but today happened to be the birthday of Princess Leping's daughter. She wants to hold a family banquet in her mansion. She must go there and ask my whole family to take you with me."

"I don't know this..."

Yang Yuanqing scratched his head. He remembered that he should bring a birthday gift. Yang Zhao understood his thoughts and smiled and said, "It's okay, I don't have a birthday gift, so I'll go have a simple meal. Don't be too polite, and the princess doesn't like it either."

He turned around and said to his family: "Everyone get in the car! It's getting late."

Everyone got on the carriage, and the convoy rushed towards Anyefang not far away.
