Concubine of the Prime Minister

Chapter 146 The Spy Reports the Birthday Banquet (2)
Thinking about it, Mengdie's eyes gradually become farther away, her dark eyes are like a bottomless pool, hidden under the calm water waves is a surging vortex, if she is not careful, she will be involved in it, Ever since then!
The next day, the sun was shining and the weather was beautiful, and the [-]th birthday of the old lady of Zuo Xiangfu slowly kicked off, which brought some festive colors to the oppressive capital.

It has been a month since the right minister's son was killed, Zhenxihou's granddaughter, and the empress dowager's grandniece disappeared, but there is still no trace of the murderer. He is starting to suppress his faction. The right minister has worked hard for the past month, and it is a miracle that he has not completely collapsed.

Su Nishang also seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no trace of it, but Zhenxihou and the Queen Mother were in a hurry.No matter how many people were sent, there was no news, and many people even wondered whether Su Nishang had been killed.However, the Empress Dowager and Zhenxihou insisted on refusing to give up. Team after team of people searched the capital every day. They even posted the imperial list all over the country, offering millions of dollars for two days to find someone. Looking at that posture, it seems that he can't wait to turn Longteng Kingdom over and over again!

Although it is not likely to cause any major incidents, the teams of officers and soldiers are always a little uncomfortable to hang around in front of everyone's noses every day. The common people dare not speak loudly, and the vegetable market is so quiet Just like a study, the atmosphere is very depressing.

But at this time, Zuo Xiang's mansion was full of joy, and the whole mansion was busy with work. There are many visitors today, and they are all famous and dignitaries. They must not be neglected at all, otherwise it will be embarrassing. Come on, the fun will be great.

Moreover, Longteng Kingdom pays special attention to filial piety, and the old people's birthdays are generally held in a special way, as lively and luxurious as possible, so as to show their filial piety.A person in such a high position as Zuo Xiang should not be sloppy at all, otherwise, if he is given a book by Yu Shitai, then he will have to accept it, so Zuo Xiang took out it early before the birthday banquet. He spent a lot of time personally asking about various matters at the birthday banquet, and his painstaking appearance really looked like a filial son!

However, in Mengdie's eyes, all of this was like a big joke, and she laughed it off.Is the luxury piled up with money an expression of filial piety?It's really funny, it's hypocritical to show off the superficial skills so pretentiously, if you have this money, you might as well donate it to the disaster area to do good deeds!
But this is just Mengdie's opinion. Compared with other people, her idea is definitely different. You can see from the old lady's grin from ear to ear. Is it true filial piety? At least this kind of deed has greatly satisfied her vanity, especially this birthday banquet has ushered in three princes. It is a great honor that the ancestral grave is full of smoke!
In fact, almost everyone knew that King Qing would come, and it was all because of Wu Mengdie, the second lady of Zuoxiangfu, to make a face for Zuoxiangfu.It's just that besides King Qing, it's really strange that King An and King Rong also appeared. With their identities, they don't have to attend this kind of banquet at all. In fact, they did not attend this kind of banquet before.

As a result, Zuo Xiangfu seemed to be the object of everyone's envy, and everyone was guessing, what kind of reason could make these two princes condescend, King Qing just smiled for the sake of beauties, what about them?
No matter what the reason is, Zuo Xiangfu's face has indeed grown greatly. Looking at those eyes of envy and jealousy, the old lady's old face turned into a chrysanthemum, and Meng Die felt a chill, But he still has to force a smile to celebrate her birthday, which is really hard for our second young lady.

"Granddaughter wishes grandma good fortune like Donghai and longevity than Nanshan!" Wu Mengyun, who made her debut in front of everyone after more than two months, was still dressed in a gaudy dress, and bowed to the smiling old lady, Presenting an exquisite red sandalwood box with both hands, he smiled slightly and said, "This is a wish from my granddaughter, I hope grandma will like it."

The old lady let Shaoyao take the box with a smile on her face, and said with a loving smile, "Well, well, grandma Yuner likes everything!"

Seeing that the old lady didn't seem to have the intention to open it to have a look, Wu Mengyun couldn't help feeling a little anxious. Today's present was specially prepared by her. If grandma didn't open it, how could she show her face in front of these ladies and ladies!

Thinking of this, Wu Mengyun immediately said with a charming smile: "Grandma, just open it and have a look, and see if the granddaughter's gift suits your wishes, otherwise, the granddaughter will really feel uneasy."

Seeing Wu Mengyun's appearance, although the ladies and wives were contemptuous from the bottom of their hearts, they were somewhat curious about what that gift was. The precious red sandalwood used for the box alone was the most important thing in it. ?
So everyone laughed and booed one after another. Of course, there are also some people who are watching the show. There are rich and powerful wives, famous families, and even a few married women. What kind of good things have you never seen?How can it be her turn to be a junior here!

Naturally, the old lady also saw the sarcasm in some people's eyes and the look of watching the show, and immediately felt a little displeased, she glanced at Wu Mengyun indistinctly, and said with a smile: "Hehe, I just said that this idiot Children, it’s good if you have the heart, why give any gifts? The gift is light and the affection is heavy, it’s good if you have the heart. If you don’t dislike it, then let’s take a look with the old man.”

The inside and outside of these words are all vaccinations. Even if it is really not a valuable and good thing, it is hard for everyone here to say anything.As I said earlier, etiquette is less important than affection, and the most important thing is to have a heart!

As the old lady's words fell to the ground, Shao Yao also gently opened the red sandalwood box. Immediately, the old lady's smile froze on her face, and the eyes of the other people also fell directly on the box. , The shock and admiration in the eyes is obvious!
It is a [-] cm high white jade Guanyin, the whole body is carefully carved from high-grade suet white jade, crystal clear and moist, with a little soft milky white halo, which further sets off the serene and loving face of Guanyin's delicate face , looking at her compassionate expression, the impetuous heart inexplicably calmed down, as if in front of her, all hostility would be reduced to nothingness.The exquisite lotus platform is also beautiful, each petal seems to have been carefully calculated, and the layers are perfect and delicate.But I saw Guanyin Bodhisattva sitting cross-legged on the lotus platform, noble and elegant, indifferent to the world, with peaceful brows, tolerant and loving eyes, and seemed to be sympathetic to the sufferings and tribulations of the world...
