It's inexplicable and terrifying.
Walking on the road to the Prime Minister's Mansion, An Hongshao's body was straighter than usual, and he took every step carefully.
Meow!
Just as he was about to step through the east door, a cat suddenly appeared and rushed toward An Hongshao. An Hongshao quickly took a step back and the steps on his head shook.
Then, he stood firmly again.
Next to her, Dongqing held An Hongshao's hand, seemingly exerting more force.
This sudden change shocked everyone, and the moment they regained their senses, they immediately corrected their demeanor.
But looking at it this way, the chubby civet cat didn't really rush towards An Hongshao. It probably just happened to pass by An Hongshao, and its fat and light body jumped out again.
"Mrs. Lian is frightened." The maid who led the way immediately confessed.
An Hongshao smiled and waved her hand, "No problem."
This can only be what she said, and she cannot be the one who attacks the Prime Minister's office.
But just as she finished speaking, there were hurried footsteps behind her. An Hongshao stepped back, turned around slowly, and saw Pang Wen walking towards this side in a hurry, with four boys behind him.
Pang Wen is worthy of being a noble son, and he walks in a graceful manner, which shows that the prime minister's education is excellent.
"Hello, Madam Lian." After all, Pang Wen was still panting as he spoke because he was anxious. He bent very low, "Mrs. Lian was frightened."
An Hongshao returned the gift politely, "Master Pang is right, Ah Li is just passing by."
"Thank you, Madam Lian, for your forgiveness." Pang Wen thanked him again and left in a hurry.
The maid saw her master lowering his head the whole time and waited for Pang Wen to walk away before she dared to raise her hand normally to lead An Hongshao.
Everything in the Prime Minister's Mansion is in order, except for the extremely fat civet cat.
This time she went to the Hui'an County Lord's courtyard. She thought it would be as magnificent as outside. But I didn't expect that as soon as I came in, the bonsais in twos and threes were particularly elegant.
The living room of the Hui'an County Lord is very large, as big as the main hall and the main hall of the Lian family combined.
An Hongshao picked up the hem of her skirt with one hand and walked up the steps. When she reached the main hall, An Hongshao put it down.
At this time, the head of Hui'an County had also received the news. She stood in the middle and bowed to An Hongshao.
Today, the head of Hui'an County has peach blossoms on his forehead, and his whole cheek looks extremely delicate.
Would such a girl fall in love with a beggar? An Hongshao didn't believe it even more.
The Lord of Hui'an County took An Hongshao to his seat with a smile on his face, "The last time I met Mrs. Lian in a hurry, I fell in love. Later, when I heard my father talk about the old friendship, I even admired the Baroness as a role model for women."
"The county magistrate has been praised too much, and my mother often said that the Prime Minister can turn the tide of the world and is the hero of the people. Mrs. Pang is humble, polite, generous and obedient, and everyone in the capital knows this." An Hongshao opened his mouth to express this compliment. Come.
She had thought about it carefully at home, and now she could praise anyone in the prime minister's house.
The Lord of Hui'an pursed his lips and chuckled. At this moment of pause, the maid saw the right opportunity and quietly reported in the ear of the Lord of Hui'an.
The Lord of Hui'an County frowned slightly after hearing this, and then looked at An Hongshao with a look of shame, "I heard that Madam Lian was frightened when she came here today, so I'll be there for my brother and Madam."
An Hongshao bowed quickly and said, "The county master said something serious. Ah Li is round and playful, which attracts people."
The Lord of Hui'an County sighed softly, "Young lady, don't speak for my brother anymore. I heard that my brother's civet cat ran into the baron's house a few days ago. My father found out and punished my brother well. If he knew that something happened again today, I’m afraid I won’t spare my brother.”
An Hongshao immediately had a sad look on his face, "It turns out to be a trivial matter, but I didn't want to endanger Mr. Pang."
"Mrs. Lian is kind-hearted." The Lord of Hui'an County calmed down, "Father often said that playing with toys makes one lose one's spirit, so M'am. Lian shouldn't mind it. The family does not agree with my brother raising civet cats."
Even if Pang Wen often talks about Mr. Lu, he still cannot allow it.
What Hui'an County Lord just said was not because he wanted An Hongshao to do something or complain about anything. He simply told her that the Prime Minister's Office had dealt with Pang Wen, which was an explanation for them.
After talking about Pang Wen, the head of Hui'an County mentioned that today was a gathering among friends. In addition to inviting An Hongshao, he was also the head of Linyang County of the Feng family.
An Hongshao always had a decent smile on his face, but he felt refreshed in his heart.
Mr. Feng Ge has openly violated the prime minister's office, and the head of Hui'an County also mocked the head of Linyang County. Can they be considered friends now? There must be some deep meaning in this.
An Hongshao naturally picked up the teacup next to him and took a sip.
Just one sip made An Hongshao look sideways. She didn't know what kind of tea this was, but it was different from Lian's. It had a light fragrance in the mouth at first, and then a slight bitterness lingered on the tip of her tongue.
Looking down at this azure tea cup, it is priceless.
An Hongshao only thought of this sentence.
The Prime Minister's Mansion really is the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Drinking tea has always been an elegant thing. While waiting for Linyang County Lord, Hui'an County Lord asked the people below to bring tea sets.
The room was very quiet, with only the sound of making tea. The maids were skillful in their skills and graceful in their postures, which was pleasing to the eye.
An Hongshao suddenly seemed to realize that the elegance of drinking tea lies in elegance.
The fragrance of tea overflows, and the feeling becomes even stronger.
Unfortunately, the hurried footsteps of the people below ruined the fragrance of the tea.
The maid came to report that the Lord of Linyang County was unwell and could not come to the banquet. However, he specifically ordered people from the Feng family to send congratulatory gifts to the head of Hui'an County.
Hui'an County Lord originally had his eyes squinted, but now he slowly opened them and let out a faint hum, which made it difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry.
After receiving the nod from the head of Hui'an County, the maid bowed her head and exited, and within a moment she brought in the Feng family members.
The maid held a delicate and elegant brocade box in her hands and offered it to County Master Pang, "Our county master said that he is deeply sorry for not being able to attend the appointment today. He specially selected the scent of books to give to County Master Pang as a token of his sincerity."
Although the maidservant lowered her head, the maidservant from the Feng family didn't seem very humble in the way she spoke, and even had a hint of provocation.
County Lord Hui'an smiled and nodded, "Thank you to County Lord Feng for me." He was generous, as if he couldn't understand the Feng family's deep meaning.
He raised his hand and motioned to the maid behind him to take the brocade box.
When the Feng family maid handed over the brocade box, she opened it smoothly.
What was inside was indeed a book as the maid said, but the name of the book made An Hongshao feel anxious.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the most widely spread rumor in Beijing recently, that the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion was obsessed with a beggar, Baochai.
Mr. Feng Ge was against Pang Xiang in the court, and now County Lord Feng is not even willing to maintain the superficial peace?
The maid gently twitched the corner of her mouth, "Our County Master said that County Master Pang loves to recite poems and write poems. I hope this book can reach County Master Pang's heart."
That line of poetry made the maid bite her very hard.
An Hongshao's hand tightened. What did this mean? Could it be that the poem that County Lord Hui'an said at the last banquet reached County Lord Feng's ears?
