Chapter 580: Huang Mansion’s Welcoming Banquet
Ningyuxuan.
In fact, after knowing the emperor's thoughts, Huang Ye was also thinking about her second brother's marriage.
This time her second brother's return to Beijing is a good opportunity.
Because once he goes to Nanzhao, there’s no telling when he’ll return.
"Your Majesty, how long do you plan to let my second brother stay this time when he comes back?"
Huang Ye felt that this matter depended on the emperor's opinion.
If the time given by the emperor is too short, even if the two families want to hastily hold the wedding, there will not be enough time.
"I consider that after he comes back this time, I don't know when he will come back next time, so I want him to stay for half a month."
The emperor looked at Huang Ye in a flattering manner.
He originally planned to give Hongge ten days.
But since Huang Ye asked, he added a few more days.
“Not enough time…”
Huang Ye murmured.
"Not enough time for what?"
"That's right, Your Majesty, you also know that my second brother is engaged."
"I know that he has chosen General Qiu's granddaughter."
The emperor knew this; Huang Ye had told him about it.
"The two families had originally agreed to let my second brother come back to get married next year, but they didn't expect something like this to happen. If he went to Nanzhao..."
The emperor understood.
"Do you want them to get married before leaving?"
Huang Ye nodded.
"This is what I think. It depends on how the two families discuss it."
"If they want to get married before leaving, I can let them stay in the capital for a while longer."
The emperor pondered.
"Then Your Majesty, can you let my second brother stay for a few more days?"
Huang Ye took the emperor's hand and acted coquettishly.
"One month... Is one month enough?"
The emperor couldn't stand Huang Ye's coquettish look.
Whenever this yellow leaf acted coquettishly towards him, his heart would start pounding.
So the emperor was very unprincipled and added twenty days to the ten days he had originally wanted.
"One month..."
Seeing Huang Ye's long-drawn tone, the emperor was worried that there was still not enough time.
But this is the longest time he can give.
"That should be enough. Let's not make this public for now. Who knows if the Qiu family is willing to let them get married early?"
Huang Ye usually considers things very carefully.
She would ask the prince to send a letter back home in the evening to see what her family would say about this matter.
Huang Mansion.
After the prince delivered the letter to the mansion in the evening, the old man and the others finally had an idea of what was going on.
"We have a month to get married. You women can try to figure out the situation at Hong'er's welcoming party tomorrow."
The old man looked at Chen and said.
Chen was very busy today as she still had to prepare for tomorrow's banquet.
She was also very happy when the old man said this.
"I will ask Mrs. Qiu about this matter tomorrow. I believe she will agree with it."
"For tomorrow's banquet, you have to prepare more, so that it won't end up like what happened at the Li Mansion..."
The last time Xuan Ge'er was at Li's house, he saw how unexpected the welcoming banquet I held was.
Therefore, he dared not take his brother's welcoming banquet lightly.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing this time."
Chen felt that she must not make such a mistake this time.
the next day.
Today is the day when the Huang family holds a welcoming banquet for Hong Ge'er.
The palace has always been low-key, so this time only a few of the ladies' families were invited.
The others were just a few of Hongger’s childhood friends.
Of course, this is just their imagination.
But the fact is, not only the people they invited came, but also the neighbors came.
The young Prince Fu and the third prince also came.
Even those in the court came together without exception.
Even if those people in the court have to go on duty and can't come, what does it matter?
Aren’t there any women in this family?
The same applies to the women in the family.
Everyone knows now that Concubine Ye in the palace will be the Empress in the future.
If they don't come over and establish good relations now, then when are they going to wait?
These days, if you don’t have a keen eye, it’s really hard to get by in the court.
Didn’t you see that old man, the always upright Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, also shouting in the court that he was going to the Huang Mansion for a banquet in the evening?
Looking at the guests coming in one after another, Chen was still a little confused.
She had prepared a lot of food, but she didn't know there would be so many guests.
Not to mention the guests at noon, no one left after meal, everyone was waiting to continue eating in the evening.
But the old master said that the families of those courtiers who came were female guests, and those courtiers were the focus.
Those are the main entertainment items for the evening.
But in this case, there might not be enough space for dinner in the evening.
Fortunately, this matter did not make Chen anxious for long.
Xiao Zhao sent someone to pass on a message, saying that the queen in the palace had asked them to open the restaurant and had prepared a banquet in the evening.
Those court officials were invited directly to the No. 1 Restaurant in the World for dinner in the evening.
Now not only was Chen relieved, but the court officials were also happy.
Now they all feel that Concubine Ye in the palace is the one who knows how to handle things.
Because Tianxia Diyilou has never hosted any banquets since its opening.
The key is that even if someone wants to do it, he can't afford it.
The food in that restaurant is extremely expensive.
So they all wanted to try what the banquet in this restaurant was like.
So on the day when Hong Ge'er hosted a welcoming banquet, the court officials were absent-minded when they were on duty.
When it was time to get off duty, they all walked towards the No. 1 Building in the World with their heads held high.
This time, not only the old man and other male masters of the Huang Mansion came.
Including the Qiu Mansion and the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, the male masters also came.
Later, those male guests who heard the news, as long as they were thick-skinned enough, ended up going to Tianxia Diyilou for dinner.
Anyway, they are all guests today. Can the people from the Huang Mansion still chase them out?
Fortunately, all these things were within Huang Ye's expectations.
So Tianxiadiyilou posted a notice outside the door in the morning.
The notice clearly stated that Tianxia Diyilou was closed to the public today.
The pressure on the Huang family was greatly reduced because of the male guests going to the restaurant.
The banquets prepared by Chen were just barely enough to sustain the party.
The first floor in the world.
The male guests who came to the restaurant for the banquet today unexpectedly received an unexpected surprise.
Because today, not only the emperor came to the restaurant.
Moreover, the retired emperor and his princes were all present.
The main focus is to share happiness with the people.
In fact, the emperor didn't know about this banquet.
But Ning Yuxuan has the eldest prince as his little intelligence agent.
The reason behind this...
Of course, Huang Ye heard from Eunuch Yu that the emperor was planning to attend a banquet at Tianxia Diyilou in the evening.
Huang Ye thought that the eldest prince had never left the palace, and children all liked to be in lively surroundings.
So she asked Hongdou to go to Feiyu Palace and ask Concubine Du to send the eldest princess over.
She wanted the two siblings to go out of the palace with their father to see the world.
