Chapter 965 965 Banquet, I'll show you...
Under Mrs. Xu's arrangement, the banquet three days later was held as scheduled.
Early in the morning, the servants of the other courtyard were busy in and out, making final adjustments and making final preparations for the upcoming banquet.
For this banquet, Mrs. Xu brought almost all the servants of the Xu family who could be used. Even if the guests did not arrive, the other courtyard was full of people and very lively.
Mrs. Xu has a good command of her servants, even if there are many servants, she does not appear flustered, everyone performs their duties, advances and retreats appropriately, and there is only a slight sound of footsteps when walking.
When Ji Yun drove out, seeing this scene, he nodded to Mrs. Xu to show his appreciation.
"Princess, why did you come out?" Mrs. Xu was very busy, but she was very energetic, and the smile on her face was brighter than the sun.
After today, everyone in Yanbei knew that she was the concubine's favorite person. In Yanbei, no one except the concubine would dare to show her face. Even her husband had to be careful in front of her.
A woman must not only rely on her husband.
"I'm the master, so I have to come out to entertain guests." Ji Yunkai was younger than Mrs. Xu, but Mrs. Xu didn't dare to be big in front of her.
It can be seen that Mrs. Xu is a conscientious person.
Thinking about it, there are really not many women as stupid as the Qiu family in this world.
"The guests haven't arrived so early, not to mention that even if they come, they can't afford to be greeted by the princess. The princess is pregnant, so it's better to sit down." Mrs. Xu helped Ji Yunkai to sit aside, and by the way She introduces today's arrangements.
Speaking of which, Ji Yunkai is really a good leader. After she handed over the matter to Mrs. Xu, she didn't care about it anymore. She gave Mrs. Xu enough rights, so that Mrs. Xu could do it freely without being shy.
But at the same time, Mrs. Xu felt pressured.
The concubine didn't even make a charter, she had no direction or purpose at all, and the concubine had just arrived, and she was not sure what the concubine liked, so she couldn't make a move.
Later, it was the fat butler who told her that the princess didn't intend to hold a banquet at first, and it was because he had bluffed at the door of Qiu's house that the princess changed the small banquet into a big one.
When Mrs. Xu learned about the cause and effect, she immediately understood that the banquet was as luxurious as it was, and how it slapped the Qiu family in the face.
Two days before the banquet, Mrs. Xu drew up the list of guests and presented it to Ji Yunkai, but Ji Yunkai didn't read it and let Mrs. Xu make up her mind.
Mrs. Xu thought for a while, and crossed off the Zhen family and Xue family who had lost Ji Yunkai's face from the list, but it was the Qiu family who gave the post.
Today, when Ji Yunkai came out, she took the opportunity to mention something to Ji Yunkai. After hearing this, Ji Yunkai didn't speak, but he wasn't angry either.
Seeing this, Mrs. Xu immediately felt relieved.
It seems that the princess is still satisfied with her.
The banquet was set at Chenshi, and it was still a quarter of an hour before Chenshi, when the four wives who went to Yanbei Palace to make an appointment with Ji Yun came that day.Mrs. Zhang came earlier, the four of them met at the door, and they simply went together.
No matter what filth the four of them had before, they are all the concubine's people now, so they naturally want to be harmonious in front of others and not let others see jokes.
The eight wives of Yanbei arrived, and the wives of the other small families asked the driver to go faster, one step faster...
In fact, they were not late, they were even early.But the secret rule of going to the banquet has always been that the higher the status, the later the arrival. Today, several high-status wives from Yanbei have arrived, so how dare they take the big one.
"I'm sorry, I'm late, and I ask the princess and all the ladies to forgive me." No matter what they thought in their hearts, the ladies who came to the banquet made an apology as soon as they came in.
"It's not too late, the hour hasn't come yet." Ji Yunkai had an amiable face, and he treated people very kindly, he didn't look like someone who would order the housekeeper to go to the Qiu family to make the Qiu family look bad.
The wives who saw Ji Yunkai for the first time secretly exchanged glances with acquaintances, then sat beside them, chatting with Mrs. Xu and the others, holding Ji Yunkai...
Ji Yunkai had participated in many banquets in the capital, but this was the first time he became the protagonist of the banquet, being held and coaxed by others.
Although she knew that what these people said was not true and did not come from the heart, but hearing these flattering words, Ji Yunkai couldn't help showing a smile.
She is a human being, and everyone loves to hear nice words, and she is no exception.
Anyway, she just needs to be able to tell the truth from the fake...
Time passed by every minute, and the hour had not yet arrived. All the wives who had received the invitation had arrived, except for the Qiu family.
As for the Zhen family and the Xue family?
The fact that these two families did not receive the invitation from Princess Yanbei was not a secret among the ladies circle.
I don't know how many wives secretly laughed at these two families...
The Xue family didn't say anything.The wife of the head of the Xue family is the daughter of the Qiu family, and the princess wants to take care of her niece, so she can understand without showing up.
Mrs. Zhen was so stupid as to stand up for the Qiu family, which made everyone's wives laugh.
How stupid is Mrs. Zhen to think that the Qiu family can beat the princess?
No matter whether the prince likes this princess or not, she is now Yanbei's princess and the only mistress of Yanbei. The princess brought people to Yanbei, and she definitely didn't want her to "die of illness".
It is too easy for a woman in the back house to die in an "accident". With their lord's means, there is no need to bring her to Yanbei, and she can kill her on the way back.
Now, the concubine is in Yanbei, no matter what the prince's attitude is, she is now the only hostess in Yanbei, and it is simply foolish to rashly offend the concubine of Yanbei before she understands the development of the situation.
Chen Shi is coming soon, and some ladies who can't hide their thoughts have no mood to talk, and look outside the house from time to time, as if they are waiting for someone.
No, the person they wanted to wait for didn't come until Chenshi.As soon as the time came, several wives quietly glanced at Ji Yunkai, wanting to see what their young concubine would do in the face of the Qiu family's provocation?
No, the young princess stood up like no one else, and announced the start of the banquet...
that's it?
Below, several ladies kept exchanging glances, and some of them obviously put their disappointment on their faces.
The Qiu family is obviously trying to discredit the princess, so the princess can bear it like this?
"Papa..." Mrs. Xu slapped her hands when she saw this, and called everyone's attention back, "It's still early, and all the ladies must be tired after riding all the way in the carriage. Let's not go far. How about going to the pavilion outside to look at the flowers? There are other places where you can't see the famous flowers of southern Xinjiang here."
This famous flower in southern Xinjiang was naturally provided by Ji Yunkai...
Seeing Mrs. Xu rushing in and out, Ji Yunkai did what she could to help a little.
"Flowers in southern Xinjiang? Then we have to go and see..." The wives present, whether they were interested or not, all stood up when they heard Mrs. Xu's words, and responded eagerly.
A group of wives waited until Ji Yunkai went out first, followed her one by one, and surrounded her to go out.
At this moment, the servants of the other courtyard suddenly ran in in a hurry: "Princess, princess, it's not good... Miss Qiu, hung a rope at the gate of the other courtyard, saying that the princess wanted to force her to death. She will die for the princess to see."
