It was no wonder that the common people of the small country that was attacked would open the city gates to welcome them. If one could bring good days to the people of the world, then what was the name of the country? To the common people, it was a distant matter. Emperor Yong Le was indeed a talent in governing the world.
After traveling for almost an hour, the horse carriage finally stopped. Ba Jiao lifted the curtain to take a look and said, "Furen, we have arrived at the Lu residence."
Gu Yu and Ba Jiao helped Shen Miao down the horse carriage and saw that there were many horse carriages parked at the entrance of the Lu residence but there was not a single person at the entrance to welcome them. Gu Yu was stunned and said, "This … Why is there no one here to welcome? Could it be that we went the wrong way? "
It was said that they went the wrong way but it did not look like they went the wrong way because the main doors of the Lu residence were not closed, as if it was specially left open for her.
Shen Miao swept a glance at the door and had some thoughts in her heart. She asked Gu Yu, "What is the time on the invitation for the Cai Xia banquet?"
Gu Yu quickly took out the invitation from her sleeves and opened it, "It is the Si hour. It is not the Si hour yet. "
"It seems that only the invitation to us is like this." Shen Miao said lightly.
Gu Yu said, "Furen, what is the meaning of this?"
"There are horse carriages in front of the door and it is obvious that there are guests here. Even if they came earlier, there should not be so many. There is no one at the door to welcome them but they stayed for us, knowing that we would definitely come. If I guessed correctly, the time on other people's invitation must be the Si hour but on our invitation, it is the Si hour. This is to deliberately let us come late. " Finishing, she laughed in her heart. It seemed that no matter if it was Ming Qi or Great Liang, these noble Furen's methods were always the same.
Ba Jiao was still smiling but Gu Yu was suddenly enlightened and said angrily, "But what benefits is there for them to tease Young Lady like this? They are going too far! "
"Benefits?" Shen Miao's voice turned slightly cold, "There are many benefits. It is rude to enter without anyone's invitation and they will say that the Shen family is presumptuous. If he didn't enter, he would have been disrespectful. If he left halfway after taking the invitation, he would have gone back on his words. The reason lies with them. They've been caught in the wrong. From the beginning, they've lowered their heads, but as time goes on, they're nothing more than a joke. "
Fighting with others was also a form of knowledge and one must not be caught at the beginning otherwise one would be lowering one's head. She and Mei Furen had fought for so many years and understood this point.
Octagonal Anise asked, "Madam, do you still want to go in?"
"Come in." Shen Miao lifted her skirt and was about to walk in.
"But Furen," Gu Yu asked doubtfully, "If one were to go in, one would be caught at the wrong place and it is also wrong not to enter. Advancing and retreating are both wrong so why do one still want to go in?"
"Then let others make bigger mistakes than you." Shen Miao smiled. "That way, no one will care about your mistakes."
In the Lu Manor, the atmosphere in the hall was very harmonious. As a very famous general of Long Ye, the Lu family's status was extremely high. Thus, their mansion was also large and luxurious. Today's Cai Xia banquet was personally organized by Lu Furen and the compliments were endless.
Lu Furen was in her early forties and most likely when she was young, she was a budding beauty but when she was old, she looked thin and mean, losing some of her dignified air. Even so, she was still dressed very luxuriously, as if this would add a little bit of brilliance to her.
It was just that as a female, when one was older, wearing unsuitable bright clothes, not only did it not make her look better, but it would undoubtedly expose the shortcomings of her old age.
"Lu Furen is really blessed." A round faced Furen said with a smile, "Imperial Concubine Jin is doted on by His Majesty in the Palace and Imperial Concubine Jin is so filial to you. For this Cai Xia banquet, His Majesty specially sent gifts. This is enough to see the weight of Imperial Concubine Jin in His Majesty's heart."
