Sweet and warm little peasant woman

Chapter 252 The Hidden Undercurrent

"I've heard from Third Brother Bai that your cooking skills are superb, and the food you make is very delicious. If I have the chance, I must try your cooking skills. It will be worth my 1000 taels of silver meals. Third Brother Bai, I will take you with me when the time comes."

Bai Zewei nodded and laughed, "Okay!"

"It's okay, I'm afraid I don't have time, the nanny in the palace will come tomorrow, we have to learn the rules of the palace for five consecutive days, after the banquet, we will go back to Nanzhou, if there is a chance, I will come here Can Nanzhou invite you to a banquet?"

Tong Xiaowu said, Feng Yuchen didn't speak, but there was a trace of guilt in his eyes. After entering the palace five days later, some things changed.

That night, Xiao Junyi was entertaining guests at the biggest restaurant in the capital. Several people were chatting and laughing, talking about what happened in the past six months. Bai Zewei failed in the examination room, but got engaged. What is the surname, Xiao Junyi said it, Tong Xiaowu also forgot.

Anyway, she won't be here for long, so she doesn't need to remember these things.

In the next few days, the nuns in the palace began to teach everyone the rules of the palace. Of course, some people did not participate, such as those who did not arrive in time, and those like Mr. Liu Xuan, because they had to talk to the general of the military department. Bai Zeyuan talked about supplying medicine, but did not participate.

Soon, the day of awards came. The day before the Dragon Boat Festival was the day when the palace held a banquet. The emperor invited him to dinner, which was a very honorable thing.

This morning, before Chen's time, the carriage from the palace came to pick up the people. This banquet was attended by the emperor and empress together, so most merchants also accompanied by husband and wife.

Through these two days of study, Tong Xiaowu had to admit that there were so many rules in this ancient palace, just entering the palace required several procedures, not to mention the bathing, changing clothes and incense in advance.

Even Qingxiu and Xiaohe who followed kept shaking their heads, saying that they couldn't be the maids of a big family, and the two of them really didn't understand this kind of way.

After entering the first gate, and walking through the five thresholds, you will find the main entrance of the palace. After passing the main gate, you will find the Xuanyuan Palace. After walking through Ziyu Gate for another quarter of an hour, they arrived at the Imperial Garden.

The guests at this banquet were all merchants with a certain amount of tax and money in each state and province. There were almost 70 couples and more than 100 people attending the banquet.

This is only on the side of the merchants, including the ministers in the capital, there are more than 200 people here and there.

In the Hundred Banquet Hall, the location has been set according to the identity of each person, as long as you find your own location according to the recommendation of the maid.

The positions of Feng Yuchen and Tong Xiaowu are on the side of the second row closest to the aisle, which happened to be the easiest position for the emperor and empress to see.

Feng Yuchen frowned when he saw this position, and Tong Xiaowu was also confused: "Has our tax bank reached the top in the country? How come our position is here?"

Looking back, Xiao Junyi's father, Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao, had also arrived, and they were still behind them.

Tong Xiaowu nodded to the two, and after the two returned the salute, they did not communicate in any other way, and she really couldn't get away these days, otherwise she would have gone to Xiao's house to see her.

Feng Yuchen looked more and more ugly looking at the positions of the two. He looked at Tong Xiaowu, stretched out his hand, and the two sat down. He knew that this was deliberately arranged.

Such a short distance, I'm afraid I want the emperor to see me?
He once heard from his master that his appearance was somewhat similar to his mother, if the emperor saw it, would he...

Thinking of that scene, Feng Yuchen's heart jumped violently. Although he was not fully prepared, that person was his father after all!

Yesterday, An Luo asked him his opinion. He said that if he left the palace today, he didn't plan to stay. He would come to recognize his relatives after everything was ready and he got his token back.

At that time, An Luo was anxious, saying that it was the old man An Guohou who asked him to stay in the capital this time no matter what, but he hadn't made up his mind yet, especially Xiao Wu, he hadn't found a chance to confess everything to her, and this man-eating In the capital, is she really willing to stay here?

Today's position, presumably An Guohou tried to arrange it?Are they that impatient?

Thinking about it, for two years, they kept urging him to go to Beijing, but he never agreed. If it wasn't for the emperor's invitation this time, he probably wouldn't go to Beijing.

It seems that a bloodbath is inevitable.

The banquet entered the preparation stage, and the maids lined up to deliver the dishes and fruit wines. One of the maids suddenly put a note on the table while delivering the fruit.

This table is for two people, Tong Xiaowu looked at the maid strangely, Feng Yuchen had already opened the note, and it said "Stay in the capital, otherwise I will have a way for you to stay."

Feng Yuchen looked up to the opposite side, and a majestic old man sat in the first row on the left and looked at him. This man was over 70 years old. Although he had white hair, he had a resolute appearance and a stubborn face. He looked at Feng Yuchen with There was a strange feeling that he was Feng Yuchen's grandfather, An Guo General An Guo Hou An Qing.

Seeing the words on the note, Tong Xiaowu asked in a low voice, "Who? So arrogant? And why did he let you stay in the capital?"

Feng Yuchen reached out and grabbed Tong Xiaowu's hand, without saying a word, but crushed the note into pieces.

The banquet started, the emperor and queen appeared, everyone knelt down, and the emperor gave a speech, thanking all the merchants for their contribution to the development of Xuanyuan, and then enjoying the singing and dancing performance while eating.

Although this is a banquet, it is an occasion for eating and drinking, but no one here dares to cross the line. When the emperor raised the wine cup and said "drink", everyone also picked up the wine glass and took a sip. When the emperor said "eat and eat", Everyone also took a bite.

At other times, everyone was sitting upright, and no one dared to cross the threshold.

In the middle of the song and dance, the old man An Guo Hou An in the first row opposite suddenly stood up, "Your Majesty, I would like to toast each of these merchants who have developed Xuanyuan for us. May the Emperor agree?"

"Okay, since Marquis An Guo has such an elegant mood, go quickly. I see that they are really cautious. Marquis An Guo will replace me and reward everyone here. They have worked hard."

"Yes!" An Guohou came out and started toasting from the first row, one table at a time, each table had a toast. Could it be that he couldn't stand it anymore.
