Chapter 333 Lively

On the first day of winter, in Wutong Lane, Mrs. Wang and Wang Qin walked through the ceremony with Hongxia, Chaoyang, Begonia and Lihua, repeatedly telling everyone where to stand and what to do during the ceremony.

Qingzhu walked over hurriedly, leaned down and said: "Madam, the palace has handed over a notice. Today, Concubine Li will come to watch the ceremony."

 Speaking, Qingzhu leaned over and presented the post.

Mrs. Wang looked at Qingzhu in shock and asked in disbelief: "Who do you think is coming to watch the ceremony?"

Qingzhu said: "Empress Li Fei!"

Mrs. Wang stepped forward to take the post, opened it and read it quickly. After confirming that it was indeed a greeting post from Empress Li Fei, she said to Wang Qin: "You watch them walk twice, and I will go find my mother to discuss the guest of honor."

Wang Qin nodded and said, "Okay!"

Mrs. Wang went to Nuan Pavilion. As soon as she entered the door, she said to Mrs. Ping, "Madam, Concubine Li will come to watch the ceremony."

Mrs. Ping asked in surprise: "The letter you just received?"

Mrs. Wang nodded, "Yes, it's the post someone from the palace just handed over."

 Speaking, Mrs. Wang handed over the post. Mr. Ping lowered his head and looked at the post, and then said: "With so many distinguished people coming to watch the ceremony, the guest of honor must be changed."

Because Gu Huayu has always said that the ceremony should be simple, and only invite relatives and friends who are close to come and sit and be witnesses. So Mrs. Wang was decided to be the guest of honor.

Mrs. Wang frowned in worry and said, "Who should I invite to be the guest of honor?"

Mrs. Ping was also worried, "Who should I invite? It's too sudden to invite someone on top of me. It's not good to invite anyone. What's more, the status of the guest of honor should be high."

Mrs. Wang was at a loss what to do and rubbed her hands in a hurry.

The guest of honor has not yet been decided, and the servant comes in with the post again, "Old madam, Madam uncle, the Prince of Qi's Mansion has handed over the post, and the Prince of Qi will come to watch the ceremony."

Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Ping looked at each other quickly. Mrs. Wang took the post from the servant and said, "I understand, go down."

After the servants left, Mrs. Wang asked, "Auntie, why is King Qi here too? I haven't heard Yan Ran mention King Qi before?"

Mrs. Ping shook her head, "I don't know either, noble people are coming one after another."

Mrs. Wang nodded and said: "Yes, we can't be careless about today's haircut ceremony. Otherwise, I'll go look for Yanran and tell her, what does it mean to see Yanran?"

Mrs. Ping said: "Forget it, Yanran is a little girl and has never experienced anything like this. Looking for her will only add to her troubles."

Mrs. Wang said: "What should we do?"

Mrs. Wang was so worried that she rubbed her hands and walked around the room. While circling, he said: "All the ladies in the palace are here, who should I choose as the guest of honor? Who should I choose?"

Just when Mrs. Wang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, a servant came in and said: "Old madam, Madam, someone from the Shi Mansion has handed over a letter. The women of the Shi Mansion are already on the way and will arrive soon."

Mrs. Ping was worried that Mrs. Wang would be too busy, so she brought Princess Jinglian, Li Jing, and Shi Yamei over early to help.

Mrs. Ping said to Mrs. Wang: "Go and greet Yingzi and the others first. Yingzi is out and about a lot. Ask her to make an idea about who to invite as the guest of honor."

Mrs. Ping's words touched Mrs. Wang's heart. Mrs. Wang nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll go right away."

Mrs. Wang said goodbye to Mrs. Ping and walked quickly to the door of the house. When she arrived at the gate, Shi's car just arrived.

When Mrs. Wang saw Mrs. Ping, she immediately went up to her, took Mrs. Ping's hand and said, "Yingzi, I have something to discuss with you."

Seeing Mrs. Wang's anxious expression, Mrs. Ping thought something serious had happened. Her heart sank and she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Mrs. Wang held Mrs. Ping's hand tightly, took two steps to the side, and whispered: "I don't have a daughter, and I haven't made a haircut ceremony yet. I haven't thought about many things well. The matter of the guest of honor has not been decided yet. "

Mrs. Ping knew that this was Mrs. Wang's humble words. How could anyone have not appointed the guest of honor when the banquet day comes? There must have been an emergency.

Mrs. Ping comforted her: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, tell me who you have invited today?"

Mrs. Wang replied: "There are not many people invited, except for my own family, it's just a few people who are close by.

Your house, the house of Wang Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, the house of Princess Qing'an, the house of Grand Scholar Yang, the house of General Zhenguo, the house of Prince Qin, and the house of Fang.

There is also a message I received from Empress Li Fei in the palace this morning, and a message from Prince Qi’s Mansion. Both Empress Li Fei and Prince Qi will come to watch the ceremony. "

Mrs. Ping knew that Concubine Li came to watch the ceremony because Princess Qing'an came to watch the ceremony. Princess Jinglian was worried that Princess Qing'an would find fault, so she went to the palace to ask Concubine Li to support Yanran.

As for the fact that King Qi also came to watch the ceremony, Mrs. Ping was a little surprised.

Mrs. Wang said: "Yingzi, please help me think about who should be the guest of honor? I'm so anxious."

Mrs. Ping's mind was racing. Everyone watching the ceremony was more distinguished than the other. The status of the guest of honor could not be lowered. This was indeed a problem.

Mrs. Ping went through the guests in her mind, and when she thought of Duke Chengguo's Palace, she had an idea and said, "Will Mrs. Qin from Duke Chengguo's Palace come?

How about we invite Mrs. Qin from Chengguo Palace to be the guest of honor? Mrs. Qin is the Queen's mother and the Emperor's mother-in-law, so her status is there. "

Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up. Yes, this old lady is respected by the emperor. Looking at Daxing, who else has a higher status than her?

Mrs. Wang clapped her hands and said repeatedly: "Yes, why didn't I think of Mrs. Qin? I will go and invite her myself right now."

Mrs. Ping quickly grabbed Mrs. Wang and said, "Sister-in-law, there are many guests here today. You are the master and you have to stay in the house to relax. I will go and invite Mrs. Qin."

Mrs. Wang was not polite either, "Yingzi, I'm sorry to bother you!"

"What are you being polite to me about as a family?" Mrs. Ping said, turning around and getting in the car, heading to the Duke Chengguo's Mansion.

Princess Jinglian saw Madam Ping boarding the car and leaving, and asked, "Where are you going, madam?"

Mrs. Wang told Princess Jinglian the reason. After hearing this, Princess Jinglian said, "Mrs. Qin is the guest of honor, so I will be the one to praise."

 Mrs. Wang thanked her gratefully, "Thank you, princess!"

Princess Jinglian smiled and helped Mrs. Wang up, "Madam, you're welcome, we are a family and there is no need to see anyone outside."

With the worrying problem solved, Mrs. Wang immediately felt refreshed and led Princess Jinglian and her entourage into the mansion.

Mrs. Ping looked at Mrs. Wang and asked, "How is it? Are everything arranged?"

Mrs. Wang walked over and whispered to Mrs. Ping. Mrs. Ping was relieved and turned to Princess Jinglian to thank her.

Princess Jinglian chatted with Mrs. Ping for a while and asked, "Where is Yanran?"

Mrs. Wang said: "Yanran is waiting quietly in the east chamber."

When it comes to haircut ceremony, after taking a bath, the hairdresser will put on his clothes and shoes and sit in the east room to wait.

Princess Jinglian turned to Li Jing and Shi Yamei and said, "You two help Madam receive the guests, and I'll go see Yanran."

Li Jing nodded and said: "Princess, go quickly and tell Yanran the process arrangements so that she doesn't have to worry."

Mrs. Wang called Hongxia and told her to take Princess Jinglian to the east wing.

Wan Xiaoshuang was chatting with Gu Huayu in the east chamber. When she saw Princess Jinglian coming in, Wan Xiaoshuang greeted Princess Jinglian and said to Gu Huayu: "Xiaoyu, you talk to the princess, and I will go to Xiaojuan's house to take a look."

Gu Huayu nodded, "Go!"

 When Gu Huayu learned that Princess Jinglian had praised her, she naturally expressed her gratitude.

Princess Jinglian took Gu Huayu’s hand and sat down, looking around.

Gu Huayu saw it and asked Lonicera to take the people back.

After Princess Jinglian and others retreated, she asked in a low voice: "Yanran, what did you name the elixir?"

"Bai Fengdan, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Gu Huayu asked.

Princess Jinglian couldn’t hide the joy on her face, “No discomfort.

I took one pill the day you sent it to someone. After taking it for two days, I felt that the symptoms of cold hands and feet improved a lot.

 If you touch my hand, does it feel much warmer? "

Gu Huayu shook Princess Jinglian's hand, nodded and said, "Well, it's a lot warmer today. Princess, sit tight and I'll take your pulse."

 “Okay!” Princess Jinglian sat upright and put her hands on the armrests.

After Gu Huayu checked her pulse, she said, "Princess insists on taking the elixir. Wait until the sunflower water comes to see if her health improves."

 “Okay! Yanran, thank you!”

 The two of them were whispering about women in the house, and at this time, guests were arriving at the gate of Gu's mansion one after another.

Mrs. Wang asked Li Jing to welcome Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Su from Wang Shilang's house into the house.

Turning around, she saw the carriage from Princess Qing'an's Mansion approaching, and she hurriedly took Shi Yamei to greet her. After the ceremony, Mrs. Wang welcomed Princess Chang'an of Qing'an and walked in. Shi Yamei accompanied Princess Zeyuan to talk.

Princess Zeyuan slowed down and looked around, "Isn't this house too small?"

Shi Yamei didn't like Princess Zeyuan's picky and arrogant look, so she said unceremoniously: "Yanran bought this house with her own money.

At that time, her life experience had not yet been revealed, and she was not yet a princess, but she had the ability to buy this house in the capital. She was already much better than you and me. "

Princess Zeyuan was about to snort and retort when a voice came from behind her, "Shi San, where did you get here?"

Shi Yamei turned around and saw Li Tao riding over.

Princess Zeyuan stopped and asked, "Miss Shi San is familiar with Mr. Li?"

 Shi Yamei replied casually: "It's okay!"

Li Tao stood down from his horse, threw the reins and whip to Kuan Zi behind him, bowed his hands to Princess Zeyuan, and then smiled mischievously at Shi Yamei: "When did you arrive?"

Shi Yamei replied: "I just arrived a while ago, why are you here too?"

Li Tao's face immediately fell, "What are you talking about? Do you need a beating? Gu Xiaoyu and Hairpin, how can I be absent from such an important day?"

Before Shi Yamei could speak, Princess Zeyuan spoke first: "Princess Li Er is familiar with Princess Yanran?"

Li Tao glanced at Zeyuan and replied calmly: "It's not bad."

Gu Chengliang and Gu Chenggui led the Gu family brothers to welcome him out. When they saw Li Tao, they raised their hands to Li Tao and said, "Hello, Mr. Li. Please come to the house."

Li Tao smiled, returned the gift with his hands, and said politely: "You are so polite to come out to greet me!"

Gu Chenggui scratched his head in embarrassment and said sincerely: "I don't know if Mr. Li has ever passed the government."

As soon as Gu Chenggui's words came out, Gu Chengliang quickly turned him around.

Shi Yamei smiled and said, "You have to change your habit of not submitting posts when you pass the government."

Li Tao thought to himself, he still needs to submit a post when he comes to see Gu Xiaoyu, what a joke! But he said: "It's all my fault. When I'm happy, I forget everything. Then who are you two coming out to greet?"

Gu Chengliang leaned forward and said: "The government has just received a letter. King Qi has come through the government. Let's come out to welcome him."

Li Tao was stunned, leaned towards Shi Yamei, and asked in a low voice: "Xiaoyu invited King Qi?"

Shi Yamei said softly: "I didn't hear Xiaoyu say that King Qi should have come uninvited."

Li Tao asked: "What can we do? Who else did Xiaoyu invite?"

Before Shi Yamei could reply, Li Tao saw Ruan Chu on horseback and the carriage of Prince Qin's palace, and said, "King Qin arrived first, let's see what's going on today."

Shi Yamei also saw the carriages and horses of Prince Qin's Mansion, and nodded, "Yes, let's see what's going on today!" After saying that, Shi Yamei glanced at Princess Zeyuan beside him.

Back then when she was chasing Lu Ziqin all over the city, only the man in front of her came out to give her trouble.

Gu Chengliang had never seen King Qi and was worried about how to receive King Qi. When he saw King Qin coming, he immediately had a backbone in his heart.

Although King Qin is now the eldest son of the emperor, in the hearts of the Gu family, King Qin is the Mr. Lu Liu at that time, the man who took great care of the Gu family.

Although Gu Chengliang only met King Qin a few times, in Gu Chengliang's heart, King Qin was no different from his own family.

Seeing King Qin get out of the car, Gu Chengliang and Gu Chenggui went up to greet him, bowed their hands and bowed in greeting.

King Qin waited for them to stand up, bowed his hands to them, and then introduced Ruan Chu and Ye Minghao to them.

The brothers of the Gu family bowed towards Ruan Chu and Ye Minghao.

Li Tao also came to pay homage to the King of Qin and others.

Princess Zeyuan followed Li Tao and came over to pay homage to King Qin. She called out in a sweet voice: "Hello, Brother Qingyan!"

Hearing the soft voice, Shi Yamei got goosebumps all over her body. She looked sideways at King Qin, wanting to see his reaction.

I saw King Qin looking indifferent and nodded slightly, "Hello!"

Shi Yamei curiously turned her gaze back to Princess Zeyuan, and saw that Su Zeyuan was blushing to the very bottom of her ears, holding the handkerchief tightly with both hands. The joy between her brows was evident, and her slightly trembling fingers could not hide the nervousness in her heart. .

Shi Yamei sneered in her heart and thought to herself, what a joy!

King Qin didn’t expect to meet Su Zeyuan here, and he was wondering, when did Xiaoyu become friends with her?

Seeing Gu Chengliang standing still, King Qin turned his back and said, "Let's go to the palace first."

Gu Chengliang took a step forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, Prince Qi will be here soon..."

King Qin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "In that case, let's wait for King Qi together."

Gu Chengliang bowed and thanked, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Mrs. Wang sent the eldest princess of Qing'an to the palace and returned. When she saw King Qin, she immediately came forward to pay her respects.

“Prince Qi’s carriage is coming.” A servant came to report.

Everyone turned to look at where they came from. Wei Chun and Sun Ning were riding in front, followed closely by the carriage of Prince Qi's Mansion. Behind the carriage, there were eight guards.

 At the gate of Gu Mansion, Wei Chun dismounted, handed the reins to the chamberlain, and stepped forward to lift the curtain for King Qi.

After a while, King Qi got down from the car and saw King Qin standing in front of the crowd. He raised his hands in greeting and said, "Hello, brother Huang. I thought you were here early, but I didn't expect that brother Huang was earlier."
