Chapter 4823 The world is hot and cold

Shuyu Restaurant, a famous noble restaurant in the capital.

It is located in one of the most developed parts of the capital, and it is magnificently built. It has an aristocratic air from a distance, and common people can only occupy it far away, and it is difficult to get close.

In a large box on the third floor, the huge Eight Immortals table is filled with rare dishes.

Stretching out his hand to touch his gray beard, Ning Yuan, Duke of the Xin Kingdom, raised his wine glass and said loudly: "This first glass is first offered to the Holy One, and may Da Qi clean up the old mountains and rivers as soon as possible."

All around are nobles, and the lowest ones are all earls, and they all raise their wine glasses.

"Congratulations to His Majesty."

This is what the title should mean. Xungui's drinking in private is very taboo by the emperor, so everything is aboveboard, and there can be no mistakes. The royal latent guards are not a joke.

"Hey, you are all the pillars of the imperial court, and now there are treacherous officials in the imperial court who want to harm us."

After drinking this cup, a group of people ate dinner and exchanged a few words, Xin Guogong Ning Yuan sighed.

"There are treacherous ministers who are against us? We are all nobles, and they are on the same level as the country. Did the father-in-law make a mistake?" Zhang Cheng, the skinny Marquis of Jingyang, said loudly.

Jingyang Marquis Zhang Cheng's thoughts also represent the thoughts of a group of nobles. The only son of Ningyuan, the Duke of Xin, died a few days ago.

"Mistake? There is no mistake. The old man got an invitation card, which was invited by Mrs. Zhongyong to participate in the opening of Tianxia Pavilion. I believe that most of you have received such invitations. Zhongyong is a new nobleman. Although his title is not high, he With military power in hand, you should have heard who is standing behind you."

"This is clearly a banquet with malicious intentions. We are all invited. The old man suspects that there are treacherous officials who have seduced the Holy One and want to harm us." Duke Xin Ning Yuan said loudly.

"Grandpa, I have something urgent at home, I have to go, I will apologize to you at another time." Huaiyuan Hou Ye Xing stood up, turned around and walked outside.

Just kidding, who doesn't know that standing behind Madam Zhongyong is His Majesty!

Your Majesty who is in power now is a ruthless character. He has disturbed his superiors several times and killed many people. He is talking nonsense in private.

"Grandpa, my mother has a bad appetite, I have to hurry back and cook for my mother myself."

"Yeah, my lord, my fourth wife is about to give birth, and I'm going back to stay with her."

They slipped faster than rabbits one by one.

In the end, there were not many left.

Even if these people are not going to support Yang Ruoqing, it's okay to want them to be the first birds, no one is an idiot.

As for Xin Guogong Ning Yuan, in their eyes, he was already half crazy.

The previous Lord Xin Guo was so clever, witty, wise and wise, he avoided the imperial power dispute perfectly, how could he be so dizzy now.

When it comes to the matter of the emperor, can you just talk about it casually?

That's head-scratching.

They don't think that they can sleep peacefully since they are nobles.

During Qi Xingyun's ascension to the throne, the whole family of those nobles who were on the wrong team were beheaded at Caishikou is still vivid in his memory.

Those bloody scenes made me dizzy and nauseated.

In the past, those people were still familiar faces. Maybe they had dinner together or went to the brothel together, but the heads of the acquaintances were chopped off like that, so miserable.

Those who left at this time felt a little secretly afraid in their hearts.

You should not come to this banquet if you are a cheater of the country, who knows how he would come up with such an idea.

Xin Guogong Ning Yuan glanced around, there are very few left, and there are still a few who have in-laws, and they really can't leave.

"Mr. Ning, we can't touch this matter. Think about who Mrs. Zhongyong is. She is a ruthless character. Others don't know it. How can we nobles not know it?"

Wei Xinsheng, a Marquis next to him, had a look of fear on his face. There was nothing he could do. His family married the daughter of the Ning family, so he was tied to Ning Yuan, Duke of Xin, and he couldn't leave even if he wanted to.

But he made up his mind to dispel Ning Yuan's dangerous thoughts.

"In this world, the state of the world is hot and cold, and everyone is watching the old man's jokes." Ning Yuan, Duke of Xin, sat on the armchair, breathless for a long time.

I thought it would be easy for Yang Ruoqing to act domineeringly in the capital and to be an upstart who was against nobles, so it would probably be easy to pull some people to make her difficult.

It didn't happen yet, who knew it would run away in fright.

At this moment, he really realized that these nobles had lost their courage, and it was really useless. Thinking about how heroic their ancestors were in the past, but now they are shrinking one by one.

Sad, sigh.

"Mr. Ning, everyone is just afraid. You know that a few years ago, ah, things changed so fast in this world, and I wanted to live a peaceful life for a few days. If Daqi is gone, we won't have this iron. Lord Hat."

Wei Xinchang sighed.

"Yes, old Ning think twice."

"The Mrs. Zhongyong must follow His Majesty's will. We don't have to go, but we can't make trouble."

The people next to him rushed up to dissuade him.

Although they couldn't leave for various reasons, it didn't mean they were willing to stand out.

The best thing is to dispel the idea of ​​Xin Guogong, and everyone will live in peace, wouldn't it be beautiful.

"Okay, everyone, please go back." Lord Xin Ning Yuan sat on the armchair, and instantly seemed to have aged several years, he already felt his own aging.

"Old Ning, take care."

The rest of the people also bowed their hands and left one after another.

As a result, the banquet broke up so unhappy.

After waiting for several days.

Yang Ruoqing was sitting in the garden to rest, while Wan Qingchun was eating fruit non-stop.

"I thought the old guy would make trouble, but I didn't expect to stay behind closed doors these days. It's a good show missing."

Xin Guogong Ning Yuan stayed behind closed doors, which made Yang Ruoqing's prepared drama come to naught. She originally planned to use the name of Xin Guogong to give a blow to those nobles who refused to cooperate well.

As a result, Lord Xin Guo was stimulated and did not go out, and more nobles also stayed at home one after another.

"Big sister, isn't it good if you don't come? We can do business well. Tomorrow, anyone who is willing will come to participate." Wan Qingchun said.

"That's right, you said there are British people here?" Yang Ruoqing raised her eyes and asked.

"Yes, the British official personally sent a letter saying that he will come." Wan Qingchun nodded.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "That's right, even if the number of British citizens coming is small, it's enough..."

Duke Ying himself is a grandfather, he is also Qi Xingyun's head of state, and the biological father of Empress Zhao.

"As for those who don't come, hehe, there will be times when we regret it in the future. In the future, if we want to get in, we still have to choose carefully."
