"General Li, what should we do?"
Captain Chen was not very willing to accept such a situation.
Vice General Li was also unwilling to give in. He thought that if King Beijing was injured, the emperor would promote him as the commander-in-chief in the fight against the Turks.
After all, he is the biggest official here, besides King Beijing.
Now that the situation has finally been stabilized, King Beijing is injured and it is a good time for him to take over, but the emperor still does not trust him or the Li family.
He thought that the ancestors of the Li family and the Jiang family all followed the emperor to conquer the country, but why was it that only the Jiang family was granted the title of king with a different surname? The Li family had nothing, and they still had to succumb to King Beijing for so many years.
Vice General Li really wanted to make some achievements and show the emperor that the Li family was also capable of producing generals.
However, now Tang Guogong was actually sent to pick peaches.
Vice General Li was very unwilling.
Upon seeing this, Lieutenant Chen suggested: "General, what should we do?"
"Do you have any good suggestions from Lieutenant Chen?" Lieutenant General Li suddenly thought, now they must do something.
"General, please come here."
Lieutenant General Li and Captain Chen murmured in low voices for a while. Lieutenant General Li patted Captain Chen gently on the shoulder, "Hahaha, this is a good idea, let's do it like this."
"Yes, General!"
Chang'an City.
After Shen Fei and Tang Zhiling returned to the house, they did not take Tang Guogong's trip to the North seriously.
Because both of them believed that this matter had nothing to do with their family.
Little Fubao can now walk a few steps on his own, and he is working hard to practice walking.
This kid is very perseverant. Even if he falls, he can stand up without crying.
After Shen Fei had some free time, she was thinking about the banquet at home, "Tang Zhiling, have you decided who to invite for our treat?"
Tang Zhiling nodded, "Well, I'm ready. I'm just waiting for you to set a date."
The ingredients Shen Fei wanted to purchase had already been ordered to Liu Sanquan. The shops Liu Sanquan opened in the capital were all fresh food shops and he knew a lot of people, so there was no problem for Shen Fei to roast a whole lamb at the banquet. Even The barbecue chefs have been invited.
"Then let's set it in three days. How about it?"
"Can!"
Shen Fei hesitated for a while and then said: "This time, please send a message to Jiang Zhuyue of Prince Jing's Mansion. I want to meet that little girl."
Tang Zhiling nodded. He understood what Shen Fei meant, "Okay, I'll try my best to invite her over."
"Well, it's best to invite the eldest lady of the Jiang family here too."
"good!"
Shen Fei hasn't had the chance to see the Jiang family for a long time, and the Jiang family has always lived in seclusion.
It seems that he is separated from the nobles in Beijing.
Shen Fei didn't know the situation in Jiang Mansion, let alone the news about Prince Beijing.
Three days later, the Tang family's banquet was held as scheduled.
This day happened to be a day for officials to have a holiday, so officials from the Ministry of Industry came to Tang Mansion with their families.
Guan Qinghai is Tang Zhiling's immediate boss. Although he has a higher position than Tang Zhiling in the Ministry of Industry and is his superior, he does not have a title.
Therefore, compared to the two of them, he was more polite to Tang Zhiling.
Mrs. Guan came with her little daughter. In the car, she kept blaming herself, "Hey, husband, I should have gotten closer to Mrs. Hou earlier. At that time, Mrs. Shen was only the wife of a seventh-rank official. I should have asked her to go to burn incense with her in the first place. I think our relationship would have been on good terms long ago, and we wouldn't be as passive as we are now."
Guan Qinghai took Madam's hand and said, "Madam, don't worry. I heard my colleagues from the Ministry of Industry say that Madam Hou is a little girl and easy to talk to. Although her identity has changed now, it won't stop you from establishing a good relationship with her." .”
Mrs. Guan blamed herself. She had heard that Shen Fei had a bad reputation, so she hesitated.
Who would have thought that Mr. Tang's official positions would change so quickly, and he would even become a third-rank county prince.
Soon, the carriage arrived at Tang Mansion, and Mrs. Guan and her little daughter followed Lord Guan and entered the Tang family together.
Tang Zhiling's house is a small courtyard with three entrances. The male guests are arranged in the front yard, and the female family members go to the backyard together.
At the door of the Tang Mansion, there were some servants and servants standing. The Tang family did not have so many servants. Shen Fei was not a generous person. She felt that there was no need to support so many people in the family, so the servants of the Tang family and other wealthy families Compared with others, they are really young and old.
Finally, Shen Fei came up with a way, which was to go to Yaren's place and hire a maid and a boy for a day.
When Qiao Shan heard Shen Fei's request, he was completely surprised.
He somewhat confusedly agreed to Shen Fei's unreasonable idea.
Qiao Shan didn't dare to go to Yaren's place, so he asked people he didn't know to come in and reported the news directly to the emperor.
The main reason is that Shen Fei always has some fantastic ideas, many ideas, and many recipes. She doesn't think these are important things, so she writes some down and throws them away when she doesn't need them.
Qiao Shan had already picked up a lot of semi-finished products, and he quietly sent them to the palace.
So how could a stranger come into the Tang Mansion? Therefore, the servants and maids working in the Tang Mansion today are all people from the Emperor's palace.
They are all well-trained palace servants.
Not all colleagues like Tang Zhiling liked Tang Zhiling, and he was promoted quickly, which made people jealous.
In addition, the wives of these people looked down on Shen Fei's background, and some people came to watch the fun today.
In the eyes of the wives of these wealthy families, Shen Fei's identity was not in the spotlight.
Others wanted to see jokes in the Tang Mansion. Although this was a Hou Mansion, there were no rules and people would still tell jokes.
Mrs. Guan took her little daughter and followed the little maid into the backyard, "Madam, please go this way."
Mrs. Guan nodded when she saw the maid's polite look. This Mrs. Hou was different from what was reported outside. You could tell by looking at this well-trained servant.
"Mrs. Hou, Mrs. Guan is here."
Shen Fei had already made preparations and naturally knew who Mrs. Guan was. She was the wife of Tang Zhiling's immediate boss, so she had to treat her well.
Shen Fei hurriedly came over and said, "Mrs. Guan, welcome, come and sit here."
When Shen Fei came to Dayu Dynasty, she had never attended a banquet in someone else's house, so she didn't know how they arranged it.
This party at their house was arranged entirely according to Shen Fei's own ideas, so it was similar to a modern party. She prepared a lot of buffet food and placed it on the surrounding tables.
A step was built in the inner courtyard, which was covered with thick mats. Guests could sit on the mats when they arrived, and many soft pillows were also prepared.
Before the official wife came, some ladies had already arrived.
The Crown Prince's wife and the Second Young Madam are also here. After all, they are Shen Fei's sisters-in-law, so it would be impossible to explain otherwise.
This time Tang Zhiling hosted a banquet for young people. Even the guests were young wives. As for the old lady, people of her level would not come.
Mrs. Shizi still has a good impression of Shen Fei, so she will help Shen Fei control the court.
After all, the Crown Prince's wife is the legitimate daughter of the Earl's Palace, and she has learned all the etiquette and rules very well.
