Chapter 44 Palace Banquet
"Pa..."
Su Tang slammed the table angrily and stood up suddenly.
"That's unreasonable."
A Ming's little body trembled with fear.
He wasn't lying, they had always lived like this.
Who in the house doesn't know that the head of the family favors the master, and who doesn't act based on the master's face, so it's strange to give them a good look.
Su Tang was heartbroken beyond measure. Her Ah Qing was so delicate, how could she have ever suffered like this?
But what can she do?
Su Tang closed his eyes and sat down in the chair dejectedly.
Immediately, he opened his eyes, opened the drawer, took out a few banknotes and put them on the table.
"Get up and take this back."
After a pause, he said again.
"Don't tell him."
A Ming stood up, walked forward, slowly picked up the banknote, and bowed deeply to Su Tang.
"Thank you, miss. I shamelessly accepted this money slave."
A Ming looked down at the money in his hand, his voice choked with sobs.
"Aqing, you really need to replenish your health."
Hearing this, Su Tang clenched the armrests of the chair with both hands to control his impulsive behavior and commit the following crimes.
Su Tang closed his eyes and waved his hand irritably.
A Ming understood, took the money and walked out.
Looking at the money in his hand, a smile appeared on his lips.
He didn't lie. Ah Qing really needed to make up for it.
After all, the owner of the family is tossing him every day, and if he doesn’t take care of himself, how can he have any strength?
I walked to a rockery, looked around, and after making sure no one was there, I took out one piece, put it in my arms, and put the rest in one of my sleeves.
Returning to the Qing Courtyard, I saw Ah Qing with his eyes closed, lying lazily on his side on the imperial concubine's couch, his graceful figure looming.
The white skin seemed to be able to squeeze out water, and her small mouth opened and closed slightly, like an alluring cherry, making people want to take a bite.
Ah Qing opened his eyes and smiled slightly at A Ming.
In an instant, it was like flowers blooming.
Beautiful, really beautiful.
Ah Qing looked at A Ming funny and pointed at his nose.
A Ming was stunned, and then touched his nose.
Then looking at the blood on his hands, he felt embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.
He actually looked at a man and made his nose bleed?
Ah Qing pointed to his nose and chuckled.
"Do you want to deal with it first?"
A Ming nodded and hurriedly went down to deal with it.
Ah Qing looked at A Ming's leaving figure, raised her slender hand, and gently stroked her baby-like skin, with a satisfied arc at the corner of her mouth.
I didn't expect this beauty pill to be so effective.
Wait for A Ming to come in again and give the money to A Qing.
Ah Qing raised the corners of his lips and took the money.
Then A Ming told A Qing everything from beginning to end.
Ah Qing raised the corners of his mouth and spoke softly.
"A Ming, do you think the lady still likes me?"
A Ming nodded.
"Well, for sure, the eldest lady was very angry when she heard that you were being bullied."
Ah Qing smiled and hummed softly.
Waving his hand, A Ming understood and slowly withdrew.
A breeze blew in through the window, picking up a strand of his hair.
"No, she's just unwilling."
The low murmur disappeared into the room with the wind.
…
A few days passed by, and the hot summer was coming to an end, and the heat of the day began to weaken.
The room was quiet, except for the chirping of insects outside the window. The girl bent her knees and leaned on the soft couch, looking down at the medical book in her hand.
"Miss, it's almost time, we should go to the palace."
Xiaolian came over and reminded me warmly.
Su Yao raised her head, put down the medical book in her hand, and stood up.
"Well, let's go."
Xiaolian followed Su Yao and walked out.
In front of the door, there were two low-key and restrained carriages. In one of them, Master Su opened the curtain.
"Yao Yao, hurry up, it's getting late."
Su Yao nodded, lifted up her robe, and bent down to get into another carriage.
Today is the palace banquet that the noble ladies and gentlemen in the capital have been looking forward to for a long time.
Everyone knows very well that His Majesty is using the palace banquet as an excuse to choose the husband of the Seventh Princess.
Of course, they have a crush on each other and can make a marriage happen.
The golden glazed tiles shine dazzlingly in the sun, and the high vermilion walls are wide and thick.
The carriage stopped slowly at the gate of the imperial city.
Su Yao got off the carriage first, followed by Su Tang. They came to Lord Su's carriage together. Su Yao helped Lord Su get out of the carriage, followed by Su Hao.
At this time, two people came out of the carriage next to them. They were Prime Minister Fu's master and a young master. When they saw Su Yao and the others, their eyes lit up slightly.
She took a few steps quickly:
"What a coincidence, Lord Su, you have just arrived. Let's go in together."
The young master next to him took small steps forward, curtsied and saluted:
"Master Su is well."
Master Su smiled and nodded.
Then he looked at Master Fu with confusion. He hadn't heard that there was a young master in the prime minister's residence.
"Haha, this is my Ayang."
Master Fu looked at Master Su and introduced with a smile.
Then he looked at Su Yao and said with a smile.
"This is General Su, right? I often hear the Seventh Princess talking about you. It's better to meet because of the rumors. Lord Su has given birth to a good daughter. It's really enviable. She's not like the arrogant monkey in my family."
Master Su's hands under his sleeves clenched tightly unconsciously, saying these words again.
She forced a smile and said softly.
"You're welcome, it's getting late, let's go in."
Master Fu nodded, and then several people walked towards the palace gate, followed by Su Yao and others.
At this time, two people got out of another carriage. This person was the master of Master Zhang, the Minister of Rites, and a young prince.
Zhang Zhujun looked at Su Yao and the others' retreating backs and rolled his eyes.
"What's the air? He's just a well-connected person. Eighty percent of his reputation before was wasted."
Hearing this, the young master was startled and looked around hurriedly. He found that no one was paying attention to them, and he was relieved.
Looking at Zhang Zhujun, he reminded softly helplessly.
"Be careful, Dad, have you forgotten my mother's instructions?"
Lord Zhang glared at the man fiercely, turned around and walked towards the palace gate, with the man following behind him aggrievedly.
If his granddaughter Jing'er hadn't died unexpectedly, would she have brought this concubine out to attend the palace banquet?
Originally, with her son's favor in Chengdu, Jing'er had a high chance of inheriting that position.
The result... he was dead and crazy.
Now I still have to please that foxy seventh princess.
Led by the maid, the group came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
In their Fengqi country, the folk customs are relatively open, and there is no such thing as different seats for men and women, so everyone gathered in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
