    The banquet was held in Jinhua Pavilion, separated by black lacquered sunflower pattern fans, Lu Qihuai was accompanied by Xie Changzheng to sit in the east hall, while Du Shi was busy in the west hall.

    Xie Wanning entered the Jinhua Pavilion from the back door, and went directly to the west hall, where Mrs. Du was arranging drinks. Although Lu Qihuai's official position is not high now, because people at that time regarded him as Lu Xiuwen's family, they did not dare to neglect him. Although Xie Changzheng  A little reckless, but I still know the proper etiquette.

    Mrs. Du was a little surprised when she saw Xie Wanning: "Ningning, what are you doing here?" Even though it was a family banquet, there were foreign officials there.

    The inner layer of the fan fan is made of plain yarn, Xie Wanning can see the east hall slightly when looking up, Xie Tingzhang has been unwell recently, and Mrs. Xie went to the village to be raised by Mrs. Xie. At the banquet, Xie Changzheng sat in the first place, Lu Qihuai from  Xie Jiayan and Xie Jiaze were sitting on the two sides, and a group of people were pushing glasses and changing glasses.

    There are only two households in Xie's mansion. The eldest family, Mrs. Gu, took her two daughters to Jinling City to visit Xie Dezheng, who is an official outside.  when.

    Xie Jiayan is Xie Wanning's elder brother. Xie Jiayan is the only one in the Xie family who has been farming and studying for generations. He doesn't like reading. He likes to wield knives and sticks all day long. Xie Changzheng disciplined him severely, but Xie Jiayan was also stubborn and never gave in.  Later, Xie Tingzhang was very relieved when he heard about this, and said that no matter whether he was studying or practicing martial arts, as long as he did well, he was fine, and finally he personally sent him to the academy where he practiced martial arts.

    Xie Wanning came back to her senses, lowered her voice and said: "Mother, my daughter, seeing that everyone from the whole family is here, she also wants to see and see."

    Mrs. Du tapped the tip of Xie Wanning's nose: "You narrow-minded little thing," then changed the tone of the conversation, "I heard that your father asked you to copy it twenty times, and it's finished now."

    Xie Wanning was a little embarrassed. After all, she had lived two lifetimes, and now she was punished for copying books. Just as she was about to reply to Mrs. Du, she suddenly heard Xie Changzheng's thunderous voice.

    "Then Chen Youping is just a distant relative of Lu Xiuwen's family, and now he has embezzled 50,000 dans of grain. As his boss, I, Xie Changzheng, can't punish him," Xie Changzheng said with a livid face.

    The Jinhua Pavilion fell silent in an instant, all the servants in the room kept their voices quiet, Du's eyebrows were also raised, Xie Wanning could see through the veil that Xie Jiaze's cold sweat was about to flow down, Xie Jiayan was in a daze  look.

    Although Xie Jiaze has a good-natured and stable personality and is taciturn, he has been studying all the time. How could he have seen such a scene, and he immediately became flustered.

    Xie Wanning was also a little nervous when she heard the words, and a needle could be heard for a while.

    But Lu Qihuai laughed lowly, as if he didn't hear Xie Changzheng's words: "Master Xie, what did you say?" Then he stroked the white jade cup lightly, "Then Chen Youping is the nephew of Master Lu's wife, where is it?"  What distant relatives."

    Although Lu Xiuwen is a treacherous man, he respects his wife. He has never had any concubines, and he always listens to his words about his wife.

    This is not a joke on the surface, Xie Wanning's fingers can't help but grab her palm fiercely, yes, this Chen Youping must be preserved.

    Xie Changzheng didn't think so: "Lord Lu, I have heard that the emperor committed the same crime as the common people. Lu Xiuwen is not the emperor yet."

    This sentence was no less shocking, Xie Jiaze's sweat flowed down his chin, his second uncle dared to say anything, and then moved his body, but he still couldn't open his mouth.

    Lu Qihuai put down the white jade cup, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, as if taking a nap, and said casually: "Lu Xiuwen, Mr. Lu is naturally just an official." After a long pause, he said, "Mr.  This account will definitely be settled at the beginning of the month, so you have to forgive others and forgive others, why should you fight against Lu Shoufu?"

    Xie Changzheng slapped the wine glass on the table again: "Lord Lu, you and I are officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You can eat and wear warm clothes and enjoy the glory and wealth. You haven't heard that there is a severe drought in Fengyang Mansion and there is no harvest.  He, Chen Youping, loves food and drinks hot food, and doesn't care about human life, so he has to report this matter to the emperor."

    When Xie Wanning heard it, she wanted to call it absurd, and gave the memorial to the emperor. The emperor was busy burning incense and making alchemy in the Xiyuan. How could he have the time to take care of this troublesome matter? If he reported it to the emperor, wouldn't that be a memorial to Lu Xiuwen, the world?  We all know that the government is now controlled by Lu Xiuwen, isn't this a joke.

    Xie Wanning looked directly at Xie Changzheng anxiously. How could her father be so stubborn for such a simple reason? Xie Tingzhang's assistant this time is now just a secondary assistant in name, Zuo just looked at Xie Tingzhang's honesty and obedience, as if?In these days, one has to be patient if one wants to survive, not to mention that in the previous life, Lu Xiuwen finally let Xie Tingzhang become a scholar.

    As expected, Lu Qihuai stopped talking, he still lazily leaned on the back of the chair, as if he didn't hear at all, and didn't even raise his eyebrows.

    Xie Changzheng didn't seem to say enough to relieve his anger: "Lord Lu, as an official of the imperial court, you flatter Lu Xiuwen all day long, follow his influence, and are willing to be Lu Xiuwen's running dog. I am not willing to thank someone."

    Xie Wanning simply stood there in a daze when she heard this, and it was fine to say what she said before. Xie Changzheng's words were heartbreaking, not to mention that Lu Qihuai was not such a person at all.

    Now even Xie Jiayan could tell that something was wrong, looking left and right at Xie Changzheng and Lu Qihuai, Xie Jiaze's clothes were wet with sweat, and he couldn't utter a word.

    The afternoon sunlight hit Lu Qihuai's body through the window, half hidden in the shadows, some couldn't see his expression clearly, Xie Wanning could only see Lu Qihuai's eyes half-down through the veil.

    Xie Wanning pinched herself again, now that Xie Changzheng's life and the future of the Xie family depended entirely on her.

    The dress moved lightly and made a slight noise, Xie Wanning picked up a plate of cherries placed in the west hall and walked in from the side of the fan.

    Xie Changzheng was a little surprised, and raised his eyes to look at Xie Wanning: "Ningning, what are you doing here?" Xie Jiayan and Xie Jiaze also looked at her, Du Shi in the west hall was even more anxious, he didn't watch this step

    Xie Wanning took a deep breath, took another two steps forward, and placed the tray of red lacquered crabapple flowers filled with cherries beside Lu Qihuai. Because of standing, Xie Wanning could only see the outline of Lu Qihuai's side and half of his body in his peripheral vision.  With drooping eyes, I can't see the specific expression clearly.

    Xie Wanning's voice was intentionally brisk: "There are only these wines and meats at the table. After eating for a long time, you will inevitably get tired. It's better to have something refreshing to change the taste."

    Xie Wanning smiled again: "Lord Lu, look, these cherries are still fresh. I picked them from the garden next to the Jokhang Temple this morning."

    Lu Qihuai had seen the plate of fresh and tender cherries a long time ago, and also saw the slender hands beside the cherries, the sun shone on them, it was indescribably beautiful, and his mood suddenly improved.

    Lu Qihuai finally sat up straight, then reached out and took a cherry, it was bright and delicious, sweet and refreshing, it was really delicious, and then he smiled and said: "I never thought Mrs. Xie raised such a good daughter."

    Xie Wanning saw Lu Qihuai's smile, he was always cold, but now this smile was indescribably handsome, she concentrated on it, and she guessed it right, she heard in her previous life that the new emperor always prepared Lu Qihuai every time he summoned Lu Qihuai.  Cherry, I didn't expect it to come in handy.

    The atmosphere in the Jinhua Pavilion eased up, and Xie Changzheng said again: "Ningning, go down first."

    Xie Wanning let out a sigh of relief in his heart. Although Lu Qihuai is actually a good official, it is hard to guarantee that he will hold grudges against Xie Changzheng because of this. After all, a person can't be black and white, and he also had some tricks in his previous life.

    Xie Wanning bowed and saluted, Lu Qihuai saw the flowery skirt spread out, and then gradually disappeared.

    After arriving at Dexi Hall, Du Shi was so angry that she asked, "Can you save me some trouble, girl?" Then she asked the big maid beside her, Pearl, to drag Xie Wanning away.

    Xie Wanning was a little helpless, wasn't she also thinking about Xie Changzheng and the Xie family.

    After all, she was fined twenty times for copying. Xie Wanning went to the study room early the next morning. The study room was rebuilt from the side room next to her room. A fan carved with red sandalwood and begonia embroidery was used to divide it into two, and half was used as a study room.  , half of which is used as an embroidery room.  As soon as I entered the study, I saw an ebony-bordered rosewood table by the window. On the case was a silver-gilt hairpin flower warming inkstone box, hairpin flower small script Chengxin paper, and there were several high-quality inkstones in the brush wash.  Langhao pen, a red vine wood-faced imperial concubine couch is placed on the east side, and a guqin is placed on the mahogany piano table next to the wall. It is a very delicate place.

    Xie Wanning could only copy helplessly, thinking while writing, she went to Hangzhou Mansion in her previous life, so she couldn't see the banquet last night, but this time she saw it and she understood it.

    In his previous life, Xie Changzheng first died in a landslide on the road, and later he was framed for embezzlement of 50,000 dans of grain, and then Xie Tingzhang was framed for being poorly educated and disrespecting Taoism, which made him a scholar. Since then, the Xie Mansion has declined.  In the previous life, Xie Changzheng insisted on going his own way and handed over the memorial to the emperor, which caused Lu Xiuwen's attack.

    Xie Wanning bit her lip. It seemed that Chen Youping had to be saved, and she had to stop Xie Changzheng from handing over the memorial, but Xie Changzheng was a bully, and Xie Tingzhang was raised in the countryside. What should she do.

    After copying it twenty times, Xie Wanning's hands were a little tired, Xie Wanning stopped and rubbed her wrists, when Qian Cao came into the room with a bowl of ginseng soup.

    In her previous life, after Zizhi escaped, Yu Shanzhi and Qian Cao took care of Xie Wanning. Xie Wanning vaguely remembered that Qian Cao's hometown was Zhuangzi raised by the old master Xie.

    Xie Wanning's voice was a little cheerful: "Qiancao, I remember your hometown is in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, right?" His eyes lit up as he spoke.

    Qian Cao nodded, what's wrong with the girl.

    Xie Wanning smiled, she has a solution.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)bsp;In the previous life, after Zizhi escaped, Yu Shanzhi and Qian Cao took care of Xie Wanning. Xie Wanning vaguely remembered that Qian Cao's hometown was Zhuangzi raised by the old man Xie.
