Chapter 155 restaurant encounter(1/2)
"Then let's do this!"
The waiter smiled and took the four people to the third floor. The private room was spacious and bright. When you opened the window, you could see the crowds of people on the streets in Xiatou. From a distance, you could see the imperial guards slowly coming, and the red, yellow, yellow umbrellas were the most conspicuous.
Mu Hongluan went to see Yan Zhan without any intention, so she asked the waiter to bring up the signature items. After thinking about it, she also ordered a pot of green plum wine.
"We don't have to be restrained when we are outside today, eat and drink as much as possible!"
Huang Rui and Lu Xiu had never eaten wine. After one cup, their faces were immediately blushed. Mu Hongluan drank like drinking water in her previous life, but in this life she was not very strong. She only drank one glass of wine and went in. Her face immediately turned red, and her face was not changing color. She didn't even frown at all, one cup after another!
"I ate much more wine when I was in Bashu! I poured it into a bowl and picked it up and it would immediately burn it!"
Mu Hongluan looked a little dissatisfied, and drank two more glasses in a row. She was immediately dizzy and couldn't help but slam the table and hum,
"No! No! Go back... I need to practice drinking capacity three meals a day!"
Green Essay hurriedly took her hand,
"Madam, you can't eat it anymore! If you eat it again, you can't go home!"
Mu Hongluan pouted and leaned in her arms, but refused. Huang Rui also giggled and pulled her hand to the other side. Mu Hongluan reached out and twisted her face. Huang Rui's little face was white and fat, and it was very refreshing to pinch it.
Huang Rui was pinched and screamed. Green Xiu hurriedly went to Lamu Hongluan's hand again. The three of them made a fuss, but they heard the noise from the bottom of their heads quiet. Zi Yuan smiled and moved to the window to look down.
"Look at... the official family has returned to Beijing!"
Several people lay down on the windowsill and looked down. After going to the front of the ceremonial guard, there was the emperor's carriage behind him. There was another carriage behind him. The standard should be the concubines in the harem. Although Mu Hongluan was a little bit flirting, she was still sane. I remembered that the official family went to Panlong Mountain in front of him. Because there were imperial doctors who asked for advice, they needed to be calm and weak, no one in the palace went with them.
So who is in the car behind this?
Mu Hongluan suddenly thought of someone, but she woke up three minutes after drinking!
Could it be her?
Mu Hongluan's face turned gloomy, and her eyes were fixed on the car. The faint figure could not see clearly, and she didn't know if it was that person!
snort!
Xia Mingyuan, if you really dare to come into the city with Yan Zhan, I would admire your courage!
But then I thought that with Yan Zhan’s temperament, such a thing can be done!
Seeing the car swaying over, I snorted coldly in my heart and turned my head to ignore it, and ordered,
"Let them bring another pot of wine!"
Huang Rui responded and went to open the door.
"Waiter! Waiter!"
At this moment, the waiter invited the guest to come up at the stairs, and hurriedly responded when he heard the call.
"What are the instructions for the little lady?"
There were three new guests, two men and one woman going upstairs to go to another private room, Huang Rui stood in front of the door,
"Come on another pot of iced green plum wine!"
The waiter agreed, nodded and bowed, let the three of them come over first, made a gesture and went down to get the wine by himself.
The leading man walked past the door, but turned around and saw Mu Hongluan, who was flushed in front of the window, and immediately stayed there...
The aisle was narrow and the person in front of the head could not pass, and the man could not pass. The man stayed there, and the man and the woman could not walk. The woman asked softly in her hat.
"Far Mountain?"
A distant mountain sounded familiar to Mu Hongluan. She turned to see a middle-aged man staring at her with a gaze. She couldn't help but feel disgusted, so she waved to Huang Rui in.
"Come here!"
Huang Rui came over again. Seeing that the man was moving his feet as if he was about to follow Huang Rui in, he immediately lowered his face and said,
"Huang Rui, close the door!"
The girl Huang Rui was an honest girl. She obediently reached out to close the door after she ordered.
"Bang……"
The tightly closed carved wooden door almost hit the man's nose, and the two of them said in shock,
"Official family..."
The middle-aged man raised his hand and waved his hand, touched his nose and looked at the pattern of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea on the door, but smiled slightly...
The imperial guards had already arrived at the Donghua Gate. When the horses stopped, all the officials bowed their heads and waited for the officials to step down. However, there was no movement in the curtain for a long time. Everyone waited for a full incense stick but still did not move.
The officials and royal relatives who were welcomed were a little confused, so they looked around and whispered quietly.
"What's going on?"
"Why don't the officials get off the imperial carriage?"
...
Liu Tong looked around and couldn't help but step forward and whisper loudly.
"The emperor returns to the capital, and I will welcome Your Majesty!"
The officials behind also said loudly,
"Welcome Your Majesty to the capital!"
The curtain was still motionless,
"this……"
Liu Tong looked at the little eunuch standing beside him. The little eunuch had his face and his head was almost pressed to his chest.
"this……"
Liu Tong thought about it and shouted loudly.
"Welcome Your Majesty to the capital!"
But he asked this three times in a row, and there was no one inside. Seeing that Liu Tong knew it was inappropriate, he had to pluck up the courage to step forward a few steps, reach out to lift the curtain, but his face immediately changed.
There was no one inside the car...
"Where is the official family? Where is the official family?"
Liu Tong's expression changed and asked the eunuchs and palace maids beside him. All of them bowed their heads and said nothing. When the officials saw this, they all looked at each other and were at a loss.
"This...what is the official performing this?"
The market outside Donghua Gate is very prosperous. At this time, there are many people standing on both sides of the street. Everyone whispers when they see this. They are only a hundred steps away and they do not see the exposed curtains. They are just curious why the official family has not got off the bus for a long time.
Emperor Daning has always been close to the people, so Emperor Wencheng likes to appear in the folk, but Yan Zhan doesn't like to leave the palace, so the people rarely see His Majesty Tianyan. This time he returned to the capital and entered the palace from Donghuamen. Some people wanted to come and see Tianyan, but they didn't expect that the official family would not get off the car for a long time, which made people inexplicably.
Seeing this scene, Liu Tong knew that there was no clue at this time. He then took a step forward, put his head over, nodded and bowed, and turned around for a while to tell the officials.
"Your Majesty said that the road was exhausted and he wanted to go back to the palace to rest. All officials did not need to welcome him. Let's go back!"
All the officials have become wise in the officialdom. After hearing Liu Tong's words, they all understood and said loudly.
"As long as your Majesty's orders!"
Everyone bowed and watched the imperial carriage slowly enter the gate of the imperial city...
In the restaurant outside Donghua Gate, Mu Hongluan was also lying on the windowsill to watch. She didn't know that there was no emperor in the car. Now she saw that there was no fun and looked back, and she still ate wine with the three girls.
In the private room next to it, Xia Mingyuan also lay on the windowsill, saying a little worriedly,
"Distant mountains, doing this... seems a bit inappropriate..."
Wouldn’t this be a trick on all officials?
It seems like a bit too much of a joke once the emperor is!
Yan Zhan leaned against the wall, and the pretty female voice next door faintly came from his ear, but his mind was a little wandering. He listened to Xia Mingyuan's speech casually, but he snorted.
"What's wrong! They all disobey and disobey people in front of each other, and there is a ghost behind them. I know exactly what they did when I was not in Beijing! Now I'm just giving them a warning!"
This is what refers to the trouble of the Xia Hou being overwhelmed by the officials in the front!
Xia Mingyuan didn't know the major affairs of the country, so she just flattered her.
"Now that the Far Mountain has returned to the middle of Beijing, they will not dare to be presumptuous!"
Yan Zhan just smiled when he heard this, but he heard someone next door slamming the table,
"Come, send another pot of wine!"
The voice of the person who spoke was slightly hoarse, as if a mark was scraped in the heart, and he would not forget it immediately!
This sound is the sound of the stunning beauty leaning against the window in front of me. I didn’t expect that this beauty was a good wine!
Yan Zhan thought to himself, as long as he said something loudly, Xia Mingyuan also heard it, and he finally changed his face.
"This... this is Mu Hongluan's voice!"
Before, she only heard a faint sound outside the door, but she felt familiar. Now she finally recognized the person when she heard it again. Xia Mingyuan was sitting there and her face turned pale!
Now that Mrs. Xia meets the people from Duke Pu Guo’s mansion again, she doesn’t know what it feels like!
Is it resentment, hatred, fear, worry or guilt?
To be continued...
