a few times..after offering incense to the old lady, Huayang returned to her usual life, reading or practicing calligraphy during the day, and occasionally asked Chen Jingzong to serve him in the even...in the latter part of the day, guests arrived at the Hou Mansion of Wuqing one after another.

the male guests stayed in front, while the women went straight to the garden, and later they had to listen to the play and eat at the same time.

before the banquet began, Emperor Jingshun sent father-in-law pony to give a birthday gift to Mrs. Qi.

Mrs. Qi knelt solemnly in front of the crowd and knelt down to Xie Longen.

at that moment, except for Princess Huayang, all the other women present cast an envious look at Mrs. Qi. Her son-in-law was the emperor, her daughter was the queen, and there was a grandson who was canonized at a young age. Mrs. Qi did not live in vain in her life, and all came without any splendor and wealth. In terms of identity, few women outside the palace could pass her.

after father-in-law pony left, the banquet in the two places officially began.

the women listened to the play and the men drank heartily.

Qi Jin and Chen Jingzong sat at a table with several young military attache, and the older distinguished guests were personally entertained by Wu Qinghou.

the people who can share the table with Qi Jin are all his good colleagues and friends. Some Chen Jingzong know each other, and some are introduced by Qi Jin only after meeting each other.

"in the last martial arts contest, I heard that the emperor gave you a golden gun a few days ago. I wonder if I can take it out sometime so that we can also look at the magical weapon given by the emperor."

"Yes, the last one who received a treasure gun from the emperor was General Qin, so it can be seen that the emperor has high hopes for the horse."

General Qin is a famous anti-Japanese general in this dynasty, from the white-haired elderly down to the weeping children, almost everyone knows it, and now he is stationed in Beiguan, Jizhou.

Chen Jingzong said with a smile, "I dare not put it on a par with General Qin. If you are interested, next time I will be the host and buy you a drink."

"Shimma, come on, let's have another bowl!"

when men, especially a group of military attache, get together, they deserve a bowl of wine no matter what they say, and they must drink spirits. If Qi Jin only prepares a few altars of ordinary drinks, they will be laughed at by their colleagues.

Chen Jingzong is open to other people's toasts.

Qi Jin, who is the owner today, has also been persuaded to drink a lot of wine. He and Chen Jingzong have almost never left the wine bowl. If anyone dares to say "can't drink", others will tease each other with another one.

it's just that no matter how much they drink, their stomachs are limited. In the middle of the table, Chen Jingzong pleaded guilty and had to go to the clean room when he left.

"I am traveling with the horse." Qi Jin followed with a smile.

Chen Jingzong glanced at him, slowed down and let Qi Jin lead the way.

on the night of the sixth day of the first lunar month, the air was cold, there was a sickle in the sky, and when the wind blew, the lanterns hanging in the corridor shook gently, and no matter how noisy the human language was, it looked a bit bleak and bleak.

the clean room has arrived.

this is a clean room specially prepared for today's male guests. There are several small rooms separated by the screen. When the guests run out of it, people clean it up at any time.

at this time, the clean room was empty. Chen Jingzong randomly picked a small room, and Qi Jin entered the one next to him.

neither of them spoke, except for the sound of the water, but there was a faint struggle.

fasten your belt, and the two come out almost at the same time and wash their hands in front of the wash rack.

Qi Jin, the host of hospitality, took the initiative to pick up the kettle and pour water into the bronze basin in front of Chen Jingzong.

Chen Jingzong smiled but did not say thank you.

Qi Jin also washed her hands silently.

Chen Jingzong finished washing first and was about to go out when he suddenly flew over a white brocade and landed on the ground like a snowflake.

the old white handkerchief, embroidered with a big red peony, almost occupied the middle of the whole handkerchief, dotted with dark green leaves.

even if Chen Jingzong didn't know anything about female red, he judged that the person who embroidered this veil was not very good.

at this time, Qi Jin bent down, picked up the veil and gently brushed off the dust that might have been stained on it. He looked at the peony again, smiled, and whispered to Chen Jingzong, "Huayang was like a girl red when she was eight years old, but she didn't like it. She finally embroidered a complete peony, so she wanted to show it to everyone. She was only happy if everyone praised her for embroidery."

the implication is that the veil in his hand is the first finished peony veil embroidered by Huayang.

Chen Jingzong looked at Qi Jin and suddenly snatched this handkerchief!

Qi Jin's face darkened and she reached out and grabbed it back!

Chen Jingzong has avoided a few steps and said to him with a smile, "I don't know how to appreciate it. It's just that my hands are wet, so I can borrow it from you."

with that, he wiped his hands with a veil very rudely.

Qi Jin rushed past without thinking. He carefully treasured this handkerchief for more than ten years, and he never really used it to wipe his hands and sweat. Where does Chen Jingzong match it

he wanted to take back his handkerchief. Chen Jingzong seemed afraid of him and smiled and handed it over. However, when Qi Jin grabbed the handkerchief to take it back, Chen Jingzong did not let go.

the silk was originally delicate, and it was an old veil that had been kept for more than a decade. Under the strength of the two young military attache and the tiger, the good veil was torn in half, and some silk hung down at the break, drifting gently with the cold wind passing through the window.

Qi Jin is pale, but she still wants to snatch the other half.

Chen Jingzong moved his hand, and before Qi Jin reacted, she quickly and carelessly tore the half of the veil into several pieces.

Qi Jin swung over with a fist.

Chen Jingzong leaned sideways and grabbed his fist: "it's just a veil. Huayang was really willing to give it to you. Now if you ask her for another one, she will certainly be willing to give it to you."

Qi Jin read between the lines and looked at him coldly.

Chen Jingzong continued to clench his wrist: "you don't deserve to know what happened with her, but I can tell you that she only gave me this male handkerchief all over the world." Either she didn't embroider this one, or you stole it when she wasn't looking. If it is the former, it will be bad if it is broken. Why should you care about it if it is the latter, you would not deserve to keep it. "

Qi Jin sneered: "I don't deserve it, so you deserve it" If it hadn't been for Chen GE, you wouldn't even have seen her. "

Chen Jingzong: "Yes, so I am very grateful to my father and swear that I will show filial piety to him all my life."

Qi Jin had never seen such a brazen person. Thinking that her unparalleled cousin should be forced to marry such a country rough man, Qi Jin could no longer restrain her anger because of the prosperity of the wine. Qi Jin threw away the half of the veil and did her best to do it.

compared with his anger, Chen Jingzong was still smiling. He fought back and mocked: "I thought a gentleman like you must be broad-minded. Unexpectedly, he was not as generous as a rough man like me. Today, at least your Hou Fu hosted a banquet. You really hurt me. How can you explain to Mrs. Hou Ye"

Qi Jin just makes a move.

Chen Jingzong: "Why don't we play somewhere else it's not clean here. I'm afraid I'll accidentally touch something and smoke her."

Qi Jin's uncontrollable anger unexpectedly calmed down in his gossip sentence after sentence, and suddenly stepped back at a certain moment, opening the distance from Chen Jingzong.

he stood in the corner out of the light, his eyes moving his wrist.

Chen Jingzong picked up half of the handkerchief on the ground and continued to tear it to pieces.

Qi Jin looked at his action and suddenly smiled: "she has given me so many birthday presents, what can you do if you tear up this veil"g of Xiang has pleaded guilty, the emperor will not forgive him lightly. Finally, the dust has settled, and the princess can celebrate her birthday well."Huayang is of little interest: "every year we...
