Chapter 454 Yi Yan Tang
It is not to say that Li Zhaoqin did not know, but that those who knew were not even able to count them.
Admittedly, she didn’t intend to say it.
I could only remain silent.
Li Zhaoqin thought that Meng Shisan was not happy yet, and just as he was about to say a few more words of comfort, the drums and gongs on the ring started beating.
Now, the tea party has officially begun.
The drum beats were accompanied by the sound of gongs, and the gongs and drums suddenly became loud.
Below the arena, whether there was a noble person sitting in the middle of the hall who had a seat to sit on, or a humble family who had no place to sit and could only stand outside the tables and chairs, they all fell silent in an instant.
Everyone looked towards the ring.
The scene suddenly became lively and exciting. Meng Shisan and Li Zhaoqin put aside the topic for the time being, and like everyone else, turned to look at the ring.
Jin Baixi slowly walked onto the ring.
Meng Shisan was surprised: "It was Shopkeeper Jin who presided over it himself?"
"It's weird, it wasn't Shopkeeper Jin who presided over the arena in the past." Li Zhaoqin was also a little confused. , and then guessed, "Is this year different from previous years?"
"What's the difference?" Meng Shisan echoed and asked casually.
Li Zhaoqin smiled and replied casually: "It's different this year, Yaoyao, you are attending the banquet."
Hearing the joke, Meng Shisan smiled and said no more.
The tea guessing banquet will be held in the Quexian Building at noon, and the wine and poetry banquet will be held in the Baolai Building in the afternoon. The two times are staggered and there is no conflict. If you want to join in the fun on both sides, it is completely absent. Next words.
This is what Li Yaoshen originally thought.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, His Royal Highness Prince Wu Li is out of the palace, and his sister has invited Miss Meng to attend the tea party, and he plans to invite Master Meng to attend both parties.
Later I learned that Meng Renping had been tortured with a cane and was injured. He had many taboos, one of which was that he was not allowed to drink alcohol, so he had no choice but to give up.
So Meng Renping left the house early in the morning and came to Baolai Building with Li Yaoshen. Li Yaoshen bought three jars of jade liquor brewing. Knowing that he liked Dukang, he bought three more jars of Dukang, saying that he would drink it after he recovered from his injury.
Unable to refuse, he had to let Gao Yuan take it.
Although the banquet at Baolai House does not start until noon, there are many young men waiting for the annual banquet of wine and poetry. Regardless of whether they are rich or poor, many people have come to Baolai first. Upstairs, there are private rooms in the private rooms, and those in the lobby sit in the lobby. The building is already overcrowded early in the morning, and there are no empty seats.
Looking at it gave Meng Renping a headache.
He actually doesn’t like to join in the fun, especially when there are so many people standing next to each other.
It was Fu Feng who came, and Fu Feng was very happy.
However, Fu Feng entered the palace early in the morning and returned to the East Palace to guard and stay by His Highness's side. His Highness did not leave the palace. Naturally, Fu Feng had no chance to leave the palace at this moment to join in the fun.
Li Yaoshen noticed that Meng Renping standing next to him was frowning slightly. He thought that Meng Renping's back injury was caused by pain due to the large number of people. He quickly said with concern: "Chinan, Are you okay?”
His father asked him to come and get along well with the future head of the Meng Mansion to enhance their relationship, but he can’t make Master Meng’s back injury worse because of his invitation. .
If this is the case, wouldn’t it be self-defeating?
Meng Renping shook his head: "It's nothing."
As for Li Yaoshen's deliberate closeness, he called him by his first name when he came out to meet him early in the morning, and called him all the way to Chinan Chinan. He was not that big. Feeling.
It’s just that I can’t help but feel sad. Prince Jing's Mansion is a friend rather than an enemy. He and Fu Feng have known about it for a long time since they were with His Highness.
Thus, although they do not have much contact with Prince Jing's Mansion, when they should protect Prince Jing's Mansion, they will take action to protect him without His Highness having to tell him.
Prince Jing suddenly took the initiative and quickly closed the distance with him with a snap of his fingers. It was impossible to say that he was not full of doubts, even if he was as slow as Fu Feng.
Li Yaoshen looked at Meng Renping and shook his head and said it was okay, then he knew that Meng Renping did not tell him the truth. If he asked Meng Renping to call him by his courtesy name Bohuan, Meng Renping would still They respectfully called him the prince all the way, which made him sigh silently in his heart for a long time.
Well, he is anxious.
The intimacy between people, no matter what kind it is, always requires a process.
He and Chi Nan want to develop a close relationship that allows them to fight together in the same camp, and then reach the point where they can trust each other wholeheartedly no matter when and where they are. This distance still requires hard work. .
It cannot be achieved in an instant.
His father always reprimanded him for being too superficial in his behavior. He had strongly disagreed with it in the past. Now that he reflected on it, he felt that Jiang was still too old.
What my father said is not unreasonable.
It is true that he is not too superficial, at most it is too superficial. With a little attention and some corrections, it will be about the same.
In short, take your time.
"It's almost time, let's go to the next street?" As His Royal Highness, Li Yaoshen, the Crown Prince of Prince Jing's Palace, except when he restrained his words in front of the Crown Prince and several princes, at other times he made the final decision.
The reason he was able to ask now was because the hard work he was thinking about was still warm in his mind.
If he didn't restrain himself, if he didn't do as he was told, if he didn't tell his father that he would reprimand him after he found out, I'm afraid it would be a long time before he could truly have a good relationship with Meng Renping.
In this case, I had to ask politely first.
Although Meng Renping had never gotten along with Li Yaoshen very much, he and Fu Feng had heard of the rumor that Li Yaoshen was always as domineering in his words and deeds.
Of course, I didn’t hear it in front of His Highness.
His Highness is from the East Palace. No matter what Prince Jing does, he would not dare to arrogantly come to His Highness.
The same is true for the remaining highnesses.
However, except for the East Palace and a few princes, Li Yaoshen would not point to the east and the east as he said, and would not allow others to refute. As for other people, he would never be so polite as he is now. ask.
Just like today’s invitation to the Bihua Banquet.
His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince of Prince Jing's Mansion, first told his eldest cousin through the mouth of Princess Yanhua, and then asked her eldest cousin to pass the message to his ears. It was said that he was getting ready, but in fact, he was telling her openly. Even if he is injured, he will not drink at most, but he still has to accept the invitation.
Strong, domineering, and invisibly arbitrary, this person is the real Crown Prince of Prince Jing.
Meng Renping's thoughts went through his mind several times for a moment, and he said calmly: "Actually, the prince does not have to be humble to me. If the prince really wants to drink, then it is okay not to attend the tea banquet. It’s okay to stay in this building and attend the wine and poetry banquet in the afternoon.”
As long as he doesn’t participate.
Li Yaoshen chuckled and asked with a smile: "Am I so obvious?"
Fei Ming stood guarding behind Li Yaoshen. After hearing this, he looked at Gao Yuan, who stood guarding behind Meng Renping even more nervously than him.
Sure enough, as soon as he looked over, he saw Gao Yuan roll his eyes.
This eye roll is fleeting.
