Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 578 Meeting Ceremony

The entry of the Shang family has aroused the attention of many people.

In their family, Mr. Shang was the former Prime Minister of the Left, and Mrs. Shang was also the first-rank wife; and Shang Kelin is now the Great General of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Three years ago, he defeated the Tatars and made him famous in one battle; as for Mrs. Shang Ke Lin's wife, Chen Yetan, although she does not have a strong mother clan, her medical skills are enough to make people dread.

"Mother, Xiao Ye, you go and sit down first, I will take the voiceless voice."

Shang Kelin spoke to them gently, and picked up Shang Qingyin from the ground.

Shang Qingyin put her arms around his neck and asked curiously: "Daddy, where's my cousin? He said he wanted to take me to play."

Hearing this, Mrs. Shang touched Shang Qingyin's little head with some emotion: "Oh, after today is over, Qilan's child will have a stepmother. I'm really worried about his life in the harem..."

Mr. Shang cast a glance at her: "What are you worrying about? Although our grandson is young, his eyes are clearer than anyone else's. He can get along with that Lan girl, so naturally we don't have to worry about it. Then Lin'er will be more Just look at it."

As the couple talked, Chen Yetan couldn't help smiling, but out of the corner of her eye, she happened to see a woman in blue and a man in green walking towards this side.

So, Chen Yetan looked at them, nodded his expression unchanged and said: "Mr. Li, Mrs. Li."

Shang Qingyin looked up at the two people, opened her hands happily and said, "Uncle, aunt!"

Her voice made Shang Kelin and others look over, seeing that it was Li Chenxiu and Zhang Ruxue, the Shang family smiled and exchanged greetings with them.

Three years ago, after the imperial court carried out a major purge, Li Chenxiu was reused by Jin Yantang and invited him back to the Imperial Hospital.

Mrs. Shang and Mrs. Shang also survived thanks to the care of Li Chenxiu and Zhang Ruxue. After Shang Kelin brought his parents back to the General's Mansion, he was very grateful to Li Chenxiu and had many contacts with Li Chenxiu's mansion.

After Shang Qingyin was born, the relationship between the two families became even closer, and Chen Yetan also liked Zhang Ruxue's quiet and docile temperament, and the two families were close to each other, so it was very convenient to escape.

"Hehe, Xiao Ye, the baby in your womb is growing very healthy. I made some small clothes for him, and I am going to send them to your house tomorrow."

"Ah, Sister Zhang is so handy, the clothes made by many embroiderers in the capital are not as good as yours, my child has found a treasure!"

Zhang Ruxue helped Chen Yetan sit down among the female guests, chatting naturally, with a happy look on his face.

Mrs. Shang sat aside, she patted Zhang Ruxue's hand, and looked at her kindly: "You, have you been with Doctor Li for almost two years? I haven't seen you for a long time, but I have become much more cheerful. "

Zhang Ruxue's appearance is weak and pleasant, her eyes are full of affection like spring water, and she has a shiny oval face, and it is easy to make people feel good with just a slight smile.

After hearing Mrs. Shang's words, she was about to answer, but at this moment, a pink-clothed palace maid came to the table with a tray and interrupted their conversation:
"The maidservant is dancing. I have met the general's wife. This is a gift from the noble concubine to the general's wife. I hope the general's wife will not dislike her."

As soon as these words came out, the voices of several people stopped abruptly.

Chen Yetan did not hide the astonishment in his eyes, looked up at her and said, "Meeting gift? Girl, I'm afraid you gave it wrong. The minister's wife and the imperial concubine have never met each other, so how dare you accept the gift from the imperial concubine at will? I would like to trouble the young lady to convey the message on your behalf, the imperial concubine's wishes are appreciated, thank you, the imperial concubine."

As if he had expected her reaction long ago, Nongwu's expression remained unchanged, he glanced down at the rubies and gold jewelry on the tray, and said with a smile: "These things are special products of Loulan Kingdom, they are not precious, they are rare in the world. It’s only worth ten thousand taels of silver.”

"The general's wife is someone who has seen the world, and it's normal to look down on her, so you can do whatever you want with these things. The slaves just need to convey the wishes of the imperial concubine and empress."

She said, nodded to Chen Yetan, put down the precious jewelry on the tray and returned to Chi Miao's side.

"Ten thousand... ten thousand taels of silver!"

Chen Yetan looked at the golden things piled up like a hill on the tray in front of him, and his eyes widened in surprise.

At the same time, the male guests.

Not long after Shang Kelin, Li Chenxiu and the old man sat down, Qingying came to the table holding a book.

Facing Shang Kelin, she held the book in front of him, and said with a pious and respectful attitude: "Your servant Qingying, I have seen General Shang. This ancient book records many lost military tactics in the old era. However, considering that she would not need it at all, the imperial concubine borrowed flowers to present Buddha as a meeting gift to the general's mansion, and I hope that General Shang will not dislike it."

Shang Kelin raised his eyes slightly, and glanced at the ancient book in her hand: "Meeting ceremony? Yichen thinks that the imperial concubine is being polite."

It's not that his attitude is indifferent, the main reason is that the art of war in this ancient book is of no benefit to him, and he doesn't fight at all, so what do he need this art of war for?

Although he was named a general now, it was out of necessity. The person who was supposed to be a general should be Tie Niu.

Qing Ying did not leave just then, but put the ancient book on the table, and replied calmly: "Since it was given to the general by the concubine, the general can do whatever he wants with this ancient book, and the servants will not disturb the general." Interested."

At this moment, the palace banquet has not yet started, and there are only fruit wine and some dried melon seeds on the table.

Only when His Majesty and the Empress arrive, the servants will start serving dishes and changing drinks.

The fruit wine is not intoxicating, but also has the aroma of wine, which is very suitable for drinking before meals.

Seeing what Qingying said, Shang Kelin poured himself a glass of fruit wine and raised it in the direction of Concubine Yu, with a smile on his face.

In the harem, he would not stand behind any concubine. The reason why he stayed in the Great Zhou Dynasty was only for these common people and Jin Qilan.

Even if you can't make friends with it, you can't make enemies with it.

At this time, Qingying and Nongwu had retreated to Chi Miao's side, they nodded to Chi Miao, Chi Miao looked up, but met Shang Kelin's eyes.

Responding almost immediately, Chi Miao also poured a glass of fruit wine to respect Shang Kelin.

The atmosphere was very friendly, and the two drank each other's wine, which was the beginning of their acquaintance.

Suddenly, a loud announcement came from outside the Golden Luan Hall: "Your Majesty is here! The Empress is here—"

"Your Majesty is down?"

"The empress is here too?"

For a while, there was commotion again in the crowd, and everyone quickly got up and saluted towards the door.

As soon as the words fell, a man and a woman came in hand in hand.

The man was wearing a black robe embroidered with a dark golden dragon pattern. There was a deep and profound meaning in his dark eyes, which made it hard to see the emotions in it. , but not as daunting and indifferent as in the past.
