Rebirth

Chapter 70 Celebration Banquet

  After getting dressed neatly, Ye Jingrong's slender figure was perfectly set off by a luxurious lavender suit. Her white jade-like face was as cold as snow, her black jade-like eyes were radiant and restrained, and her black hair was simply tied with a lavender headband. There is no crown or hairpin at the back of the head, and there are a few strands of broken hair blown away by the wind on the front of the forehead, intertwined with the lavender headband, adding a bit of dusty temperament! Ming Yan stared blankly at the beautiful scenery in front of him, feeling that everything in the world had lost its color.

As if suddenly remembering something, Ming Yan suddenly picked up the lavender veil that was left aside, and gently put it on Ye Jingrong's face.

It looks much better this way, at least it won't be so eye-catching. If his wife is being watched closely by those with malicious intentions along the way, Ming Yan will probably go crazy.

Nodding in satisfaction, Ming Yan took Ye Jingrong's arm and walked towards the outside of the palace. After helping Ye Jingrong onto the soft sedan chair, Ming Yan opened the curtain and walked in, and then ordered the sedan chair Husband headed for the direction of the palace!

Today there will be a celebration banquet in the palace, which is simply a celebration for the whole country, congratulating King Cheng on his return from the southward attack on the privet tribe.

The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty would bring their family members to the banquet. This kind of event was only held once every few years. It was a great opportunity to make friends with powerful people, so no one wanted to be absent unless there were special circumstances.

The sedan chair of Prince Cheng's Mansion stopped at the entrance of the palace. The civil and military ministers who saw this scene were all terrified, and they all rushed to cast their eyes on the past, only thinking of being able to leave after seizing the opportunity. Go forward, say a few good words in front of King Cheng, and make friends with the prince who is most likely to inherit the supreme position.

But after the sedan chair stopped, His Royal Highness Cheng Wang was indeed the one who got off the sedan chair first. He was dressed in a four-claw python robe, which made him more heroic. slightly towards. Raising his head up, the Blood Brake God of War, who has always been casual in his words and smiles, is now standing outside the sedan chair with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if waiting for someone to accompany him.

The ministers who saw this scene were all amazed in their hearts. Except for his mother and concubine and the current saint, when His Royal Highness had never been so respectful to anyone?

Is there someone else in this sedan chair? Who will it be? Could it be the second lady of the Xue family?

It's just a concubine who has such a means to win such a favor from His Royal Highness Cheng Wang?

Just when everyone was in doubt, the tasseled curtain of the sedan chair was gently lifted by a protruding bare hand. Immediately afterwards, a face with a lavender veil, but still alluring, was exposed to the civil and military audience. In front of my lord, the people who were looking forward to it were finally lucky enough to see the true face of this person!

It's actually a man?

Seeing Ming Yan graciously reaching out his hand to help him off the sedan chair, everyone was shocked and didn't say a word. One must know that Ming Yan is known to be rebellious, who the hell is this man? How could such a feral Nether wolf be tamed so docilely?

Ye Jingrong could naturally sense the probing gazes from all directions, but he didn't feel flustered at all. He was still standing tall and facing the wind. He was not a brainless woman like Xue Mengyao with long hair and short knowledge. I can handle it.

"My lord, all the ministers are waiting, let's go there quickly!" Ye Jingrong tilted his head slightly, and whispered next to Ming Yan's ear.

However, when Ming Yan heard this, he shook his head disapprovingly.

"Don't worry, father and mother haven't arrived yet, let's go slowly, those military officials are better, they are upright, and they talk with the king when they talk, but those civil servants are really annoying. It's annoying for me to hear some beautiful words chattering in my ear!"

Hearing this, Ye Jingrong couldn't help but feel dumbfounded. I'm afraid those not far in front of him were looking at Ming Yan eagerly, just thinking of currying favor with the courtiers they had made friends with. They never imagined that they were actually disliked by His Royal Highness Cheng Wang long ago.

But the ministers didn't care whether Ming Yan was bored or not. After you looked at me and I looked at you, they swarmed up and blocked Ming Yan's way forward.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness Cheng Wang on his triumphant return this time. He is truly a great hero of our Mingyou Kingdom. This is the dog Fu Cheng, who is incompetent. He brought the celebration banquet this time because he wanted him to admire His Royal Highness Cheng Wang's heroic appearance. !"

At this moment, the person who is flattering in front of Ming Yan is Mr. Fu from the Ministry of War. He has always wanted to climb up to the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of War, but what he doesn't know is that the Shangshu of the Ministry of War is Ming Yan's person. How can Ming Yan go far to support him? What about him?

Moreover, the Fu Cheng he was talking about is indeed an incompetent dog. Apart from visiting flower houses, he goes to casinos every day, and taking aphrodisiac medicine is as punctual as eating. Ming Yan's eyes. But in the royal family, there are so many people who can't help themselves, Ming Yan is really too lazy to deal with this kind of people, but he just can't express his disgust! "Your Majesty Fu is polite, Fu Cheng is also a talent that can be cultivated, as long as you are willing to spend more time cultivating it!" Ming Yan cupped his hands slightly, and replied with a flat expression. Everyone was well aware of his paralyzed face, but what Ming Yan said made Fu Qiu feel quite at ease.

The charming smile on his face was even brighter. Fu Qiugang was about to say something more vigorously, but at this moment, he was pushed aside without a trace by Mr. Yang who had already rushed over.

Yang Qinggong is the secretary of the household department, and his official position is just right to overwhelm Fu Qiu. At first, Fu Qiu was not reconciled, but after seeing that it was Yang Qinggong who came, he could only swallow his breath, and reluctantly turned and left.

When Ming Yan saw that the person who came was Yang Qinggong, a dark light flashed in his eyes. This old man is a talent, and he is definitely worth making friends with.

"His Royal Highness, I haven't seen you for a long time, but he is even more heroic. Unlike the old man, I am a piece of old wood. These arms and legs are useless!" Yang Qinggong stroked his gray goatee with one hand. , generally squinting his old eyes that were shining brightly, and opened his mouth to Ming Yan with a friendly face.

"Your Majesty Yang's words are wrong. His Majesty Yang is growing old and strong, and even the emperor is reluctant to leave his lord Yang to return to his hometown!" Ming Yan's face looked a little better than before, but after all, he still had a cold appearance, which made it difficult to understand his heart How do you feel.

"Then I would like to thank His Royal Highness Cheng Wang for his good words!" Hearing this, Yang Qinggong suddenly burst out laughing heartily. After the laughter stopped, his eyes suddenly fell on Ye Jingrong, who was half a step behind Mingyan, and then At the same time, after seeing Ming Yan, the little granddaughter with a slightly drunken face and a shy expression stood behind her.

"His Royal Highness, the old minister has the guts to ask, I wonder if this is...?" While asking tentatively, Yang Qinggong nodded at Ye Jingrong in an approachable way!

From the beginning to the end, Ye Jingrong has been standing half a step behind Ming Yan, neither losing Ming Yan nor taking a step beyond the threshold.

Now receiving Yang Qinggong's friendly condolences, Ye Jingrong just nodded politely in response, if Ming Yan refused to recommend, he would not make a presumptuous claim!

"This is my concubine, Ye Shi Ye Jingrong." Turning his head sideways, Ming Yan stretched out his hand to wrap around Ye Jingrong's waist, and then spoke in a pleasant manner.

Hearing this, Ye Jingrong spontaneously took half a step forward, and after bowing his hands towards Yang Qinggong, he bent down and called out respectfully: "Master Yang!" The

standard greeting of meeting people can't fault it at all. .

Seeing this scene, Yang Qinggong narrowed his old eyes again, but at the next moment, he sighed softly, and congratulated Ming Yan, "The concubine is graceful and graceful, the lord is really lucky!"

What he said made Ming Yan happy from the bottom of his heart, and he subconsciously warmed up to Yang Qinggong for three points. Ming Yan laughed and replied without humility: "That's right, Jing Rong is the king. What a blessing!"

Hearing this, Yang Qinggong understood completely in his heart, since the prince has admitted it so bluntly, then his little granddaughter must have no chance, what a pity.

Although the Mingyou royal family cannot choose one to end, they value love and righteousness. Among them, His Royal Highness Cheng Wang loves the most. Originally, when the second lady of the Xue family was favored, Yang Qinggong didn't take her seriously. It's just a concubine. Although his little granddaughter is not very intelligent, she is knowledgeable about books and etiquette. With his teaching behind her, she will definitely be able to win the favor of the prince. Being a side concubine is a major concern of this little girl.

But looking at it now, Yang Qinggong didn't want to forcefully send his precious little granddaughter into Cheng Wang's mansion to humiliate himself, let alone that silly girl, even the old man might not be able to fight against this gentle and elegant Young Master Ye!

As for this princess, Yang Qinggong looked a little familiar, not exactly familiar, but there must have been a relationship once!

Unobtrusively frowned, Yang Qinggong stroked his goatee with one hand and fell into deep thought. After a while, his old eyes lit up and he remembered Ye Jingrong's identity.

Isn't this Ye Shi Ye Jingrong who won the first place in the palace examination three years ago and shined brilliantly, but dared to trick the current saint and married His Royal Highness Cheng Wang as a man?

Yang Qinggong also felt sorry for this person at the beginning, and felt sorry for the Ye family. It is no wonder that the old man of the Ye family became so angry. People's vision is really not ordinary bad!

And what kind of grievances and grievances there are in it Yang Qinggong didn't fully know about it. He only knew that Young Master Ye broke away from the Ye Mansion immediately after his wings became full, and instead fell into the arms of Cheng Wang's Mansion. Back then, it was also a farce that made the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty laugh at it!
