Chapter 1169 Second update (3)
Princess Deqing would understand if she politely made some remedial measures because of the diplomatic relations between the two countries, but she never expected that the other party would put down her figure like this and give a princess of a neighboring country Apologize.
The bewildered Princess Deqing was at a loss and looked at Xuanyin. Before leaving, her father entrusted herself to him. In her heart, she was somewhat dependent on him.
Xuan Yin smiled lightly, this old and cunning Geng Patriarch, he is moving with emotion and reason, and focuses on Princess Deqing's weakness, but Geng Ye is not his own at all, don't tell him, he can't even recognize his own son, Then he shouldn't be the head of the house anymore, go back to the countryside and grow vegetables!
Apologizing to Princess Deqing for a discarded chess piece is definitely not out of sincerity, at most it is weighing the pros and cons.
It seems that the disarming in Jun County made the Geng family aware of their position. They definitely didn't come to southern border with the intention of making peace or flattery. If they can make up, they will make up, and if they don't, they will fight. After all, they can't let the princess of Xiliang suffer such a big fall.
And once they refuse to give up, it means that they will not expose Geng Ye's matter easily. At that time, if the troubles come to the King of Nanjiang, the Geng family may not be able to step down. Rather than that, it is better to find Princess Deqing private.
Although Xuanyin doesn't like the Geng family, he has to admire the methods of the Geng family leader. This kind of begging for help would never be done by his father.
Xuan Yin couldn't help but look at Patriarch Geng one more time, and smiled softly: "Why did Patriarch Geng mention this so politely? Is this a reception banquet or an apology dinner? If it's a reception banquet, don't mention such a spoiling thing."
One size is equal to one size, and the idea of taking people's short hands and eating people's soft mouths doesn't work at all in Xuanyin's place.
Patriarch Geng met such an indifferent person for the first time. No, this can no longer be described as indifference. This is simply...not understanding the world! After eating and drinking his family's food, he spoke softly, but his face changed so quickly—
Ning Yue wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and said: "Yes, Patriarch Geng, we are having a good time eating. I can't even eat it because you mentioned such an unappetizing thing."
One sea crab, three scallops, five oysters, one cup of stewed snow clams with papaya, one plate of lobster, one bowl of jelly, three skewers of squid, one plate of green curry beef, are you full? I'm so embarrassed that I can't eat it because I don't like it!
Having interacted with those officialdom people a lot, such a wonderful young man, he met two of them once he met. Patriarch Geng's complexion was a little cloudy, but he had gained experience after all, and soon gave that emotion to him. Suppressing it, he said with a smile: "It's Geng who is being rude, he shouldn't bring up the sad matter of the princess, and Geng will punish himself with three cups!"
As he spoke, he drank three glasses of spirits in a row, and didn't mention anything about Geng Ye again.
At this point in the banquet, no matter how Patriarch Geng "repairs" Princess Deqing, she can't restore Princess Deqing to her previous state. The maid again presented the special fruits and cakes of southern Xinjiang. , all comers are welcome.
The corner of Rong Lin's mouth twitched, who said just now that he couldn't eat anymore? Eat more than him.
Xuanyin also felt that Ning Yue ate too much. Since entering the door, her small mouth has never stopped. I didn't realize that she can eat so much before.
At four o'clock in the evening (eight o'clock in the evening), the banquet was over, and the head of the Geng family invited the theater troupe to sing in the back garden. He invited everyone to watch, but was rejected by Princess Deqing and Xuanyin. Princess Deqing was not in the mood, and Xuanyin It was because Ning Yue was already drowsy in Rong Qing's arms.
Patriarch Geng personally sent everyone to the carriage, and said: "Tomorrow the emperor will hold a banquet in the palace, if you need to buy anything or help, please tell Geng."
