"Yuzhi, what did I say? Everyone welcomes you!"

Wen Tinglan pulled Miao Yuzhi, who was holding the child, and said to everyone: "I just said that we are all good friends and we are just sitting together to have a meal. No one will be surprised. Yuzhi is still very embarrassed~"

As the daughter of Wen Yanyu, a court official, she came from a family of scholars. She is a typical lady from a wealthy family. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can handle people and affairs with dignity. At this time, he smiled brightly, but he did not immediately pull Miao Yuzhi to sit down. Instead, he looked at Jiang Wang, who was sitting in the main seat.

Because although Yan Fu paid for today's banquet, it was organized by Jiang Wang.

Of course Jiang Wang couldn't offend Wen Tinglan, so he smiled warmly: "What Bowang Hou said is what I meant. Let's sit together. I haven't seen Xiao Xuanjing for a long time - is he asleep?"

Wen Tinglan said that Miao Yuzhi took care of the children every day, which was indeed the case.

A famous family like the Bao family has an unknown number of people to take care of a child. But Miao Yuzhi didn't trust anyone. She had to take her with her wherever she went and put her to sleep in person every night.

Bao Xuanjing was born on September 29, the fifty-seventh year of Yuanfeng in the Qi Dynasty. He is now over one and almost two years old.

Didn't carry to term, but healthy. After all, the conditions of Uncle Shuo Fang's Mansion are good. He is white, fat and very cute.

At this moment, she was in Miao Yuzhi's arms with her eyes closed, breathing evenly, and a very relaxed expression on her face.

Miao Yuzhi looked at the child in her arms with gentle eyes: "There was still trouble on the road just now..."

She smiled at Jiang Wang and said, "I'm probably tired."

She held the sleeping Xiao Xuanjing for Jiang Wang to look at, and sat down next to Jiang Wang.

The rest of the meal was tasteless.

Although Wen Tinglan has been trying to liven up the atmosphere, she is also very good at finding some topics.

But there is an old friend's widow who is not very familiar with here, and everyone is not very comfortable.

Yi Shishi has always been introverted, and things got better after marriage, but he could only chat in front of acquaintances, but he didn't know what to do when he met strangers.

Yi Huaimin was accustomed to rambling, but with the widow of Uncle Shuo Fang's house present, he had to pay more attention to his sense of propriety.

Zhong Xuansheng, who was always good at dancing, just continued his words in a nonchalant manner, and did not let Wen Tinglan's words fall to the ground, but there was no need for him to stir up any atmosphere.

Zheng Shangming watched his words and expressions, and gradually just drank.

Yan Fu tried his best to cooperate a few times, but gradually his words became less and less.

Miao Yuzhi himself, on the other hand, was completely unaware of the atmosphere at the scene and didn't care about other people at all. From time to time, he asked Jiang Wang a few questions, and Jiang Wang responded politely.

This went on for a while without any embarrassment. Li Longchuan's mouth was filled with tears, and he felt that the fragrance was still very interesting. I stood up and opened the private room door, intending to go out for some air, but I happened to see an acquaintance.

"Thank you, Xiaobao!"

Xie Baoshu was walking past the door with a group of friends. He didn't want to come to Yan Fu's restaurant. But firstly, the food here is really authentic, and my friends all like it. Secondly... I just think of spending money to buy Mr. Yan's service, which is quite comfortable when I think about it. Where can you usually spend money on Yan Fu?

An Zhi Tinglan... Humph!

Hearing such an impolite sound, he frowned and following the sound, he happened to meet Jiang Wang, who was sitting facing the door.

As soon as their eyes met, Jiang Wang spoke first: "Oh, it's the treasure tree."

After all, Xie Xiaobao has matured a lot, unlike before. He spread his brows, even cupped his hands, and said, "Master Jiang! When did you return to Linzi?"

"I just came back not long ago." Jiang Wang looked at him and said, "Sit down and have a drink together?"

Xie Baoshu deliberately avoided Wen Tinglan's eyes and only said to Jiang Wang: "I appreciate Master Jiang's kindness. I just finished drinking...my uncle is still waiting for me at home."

Jiang Wang didn't bully him, he just waved his hand: "Okay, say hello to Doctor Xie for me."

Xie Baoshu was very polite: "I will definitely bring Master Jiang's greetings."

Jiang Wang thought for a moment and then said: "Forget it, I'll go in person. I just have something urgent to do with Dr. Xie."

After saying that, he stood up and bowed his hands to everyone in the room: "I'm sorry, I have something to do. It's fate that I happened to meet Baoshu, so I will solve the matter first. I'll excuse you for today. Let's get together another day. !”

Zheng Shangming stood up to say goodbye: "We are all good friends and can get together at any time. You have to do business."

Everyone else just waved their hands, and Zhongxuan didn't even bother to raise his fat eyelids.

However, Miao Yuzhi still had some unfinished thoughts and said reluctantly: "Brother Jiang, please go slower on the road."

"It's easy to say. You also take care of your body and take good care of Xiao Xuanjing." Jiang Wang left a sentence and ran away.

Before Xie Baoshu could react, Jiang Wang had already walked to the front and waved to him, saying very affectionately: "Let's go, Baoshu, why are you standing there standing there?"

Xie Baoshu wanted to say that his uncle was not at home, but he was worried that Jiang Zhenren would really have trouble with his uncle.

After all, they are all real people in this world, on the same level...

"How are Master Jiang planning to go?" Xie Baoshu asked politely after walking out of the gate of Anzhi Tower.

"Oh, let's take your carriage." Jiang Wang said absently.

In fact, he didn't want to find Xie Huai'an at all, he just found a reason to take the opportunity to leave.

Miao Yuzhi was so strange. Every time they met, the strange feeling got even worse.

It's not that he hasn't been pursued by others, and he has more or less rejected some overtures over the years.

The first few times they met by chance, Miao Yuzhi's eyes were vague and her words were measured, so there was no problem.

It's been quite a while today.

How can any mother in the world be like this, holding her child in her arms, but all she can see is another man?

That child is not his!

Jiang Wang didn't want to provoke any peach blossoms, and he didn't want to be attacked by Uncle Shuo Fang. But I was afraid that I was being sentimental and misunderstood the weakness of a woman whose husband died just after giving birth to a child.

So we can only avoid it.

"Master Jiang is looking for my uncle. I wonder what the matter is?" Xie Baoshu said thoughtfully on the carriage that was driving smoothly.

"Oh." Jiang Wang came back to his senses and said gently: "This is a matter between real people. If I tell you now, you still don't understand."

Xie Baoshu stopped talking.

…

…

The party in Anzhilou dispersed quickly after Jiang Wang left the table.

Everyone goes back to his home.

At this time, Li Longchuan hooked up with Yi Huaimin and left with a bright smile... They would not go home.

After leaving the dining room, Yan Fu, who had always been gentle, didn't speak much and returned to the top floor silently. The entire floor here was his resting place, and he sometimes stayed here.

There was no emotion on his face, he held a book in his hand and read it slowly.

He was not a temperless man, but he almost never lost control. His grandfather Yan Ping believes that the two most important words in life are "self-control".

Yan Ping is the prime minister and rarely has an angry look.

Jiang Rumo, who inherited the political platform and made the former prime minister return with great power, even went beyond this. He has always had the image of a good old guy and doesn't have to "control his anger". He never seems to get angry.

After the former prime minister successfully returned to power, Jiang Rumo began to implement his own political ideas based on the former prime minister's political platform.

If I had to use one sentence to briefly summarize the two prime ministers of Da Qi.

The former prime minister's political views were aggressive, and his methods were both hard and soft, including fighting against the spring wind and rain of the Yang Kingdom, and also fighting the winter frost and thunder of the Xia Kingdom in bloody battles.

The current political views of the prime minister are to be moderate and conservative, act in a low-key manner, and advocate win-win situations. He is always quiet and not in a hurry, and advances his ideas slowly.

Before the current prime minister leaves office, it is impossible to say who is better. But their political opinions are, to some extent, related to the national power of Qi. At the time of the former prime minister, the whole country of Qi was fighting for hegemony. At this time, Qi needs to consolidate its hegemony.

Of course, the prime minister has his own political opinions, but to a certain extent, they are also a continuation of the king's will.

Only by knowing the king's heart from above and caring for the ministers from below can he be the prime minister of the country.

That's why Mr. Yan's name contains the word "Fu". I hope he can soothe people's hearts and make the road smooth.

Jiang Wang has known him for so long, and the only time he saw him angry was when he couldn't bear the public opinion guided by Xuanhuai Bo Liu Yingqi and said harshly that he cut off a long tongue with a knife.

Wen Tinglan first put Miao Yuzhi and her son on the carriage, bid farewell to them affectionately, and then came back to find Yan Fu.

Make tea as usual, sit next to him, and lean against him: "Husband~~Please use the tea."

The two of them were engaged long ago, but never got married.

Wen Yanyu hoped to wait for Yan Fu to make some achievements of his own before officially getting married.

Yan Fu was not in a hurry.

But in private, they had already become intimate with each other as husband and wife, and even attended the wedding banquet of Mu Country together.

At this time, Yan Fu said: "I don't really want to drink it, let's leave it for now."

Wen Tinglan added, "Then I'll cut the fruit for you."

Yan Fu sighed: "Ting Lan, let me rest for a while."

Wen Tinglan is knowledgeable and courteous, beautiful and intellectual, but underneath her gentle background, she is actually a bit strong.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have heard someone say that she ruined the relationship between Yan Fu and Liu Xiuzhang, so she would have come to interrogate Yan Fu, forcing Yan Fu to go to Fufeng County in person to make it clear and end the last trace of their relationship.

At this time, he also looked at Yan Fu and refused to be quiet: "Are you unhappy? Because you met Xie Baoshu today?"

Yan Fu put down the book: "He only liked you one-sidedly. Do you think I, Yan Fu, will have any emotions because of him?"

"What happened?" Wen Tinglan asked.

Yan Fu looked at her quietly for a while and finally said: "Chong Xuan Sheng paid the money when he left at the end."

Wen Tinglan said: "You treat us every day. It doesn't matter if he pays the bill once in a while. It's not like Bowang Hou Mansion has no money."

"Can't you really see that everyone is unhappy?" Yan Fu asked.

Wen Tinglan blinked pitifully: "Is it because of Yuzhi?"

Yan Fu took a deep breath: "She is a widowed woman. It would be fine if she left the Bao family. She is still the young lady of the Bao family. She is still holding the child..."

"But isn't this a family dinner? Aren't they all our own people?" Wen Tinglan asked.

Yan Fu looked at her and his tone became serious: "Tinglan, something is wrong with you. This is a private banquet between friends. There is no reason for you to invite someone who is not familiar to everyone. This is not something you can do."

"Oh, don't be so stingy." Wen Tinglan said, "Jiang Wang and I are also friends. I have invited him a few times in poetry gatherings before, and he was happy to attend. Yuzhi is also a friend of mine, and Jiang Wang is also a friend of mine. What does it matter if I introduce a friend to a friend? And they are already familiar with each other, right? Jiang Wang even remembers Xuan Jing!"

Yan Fu said nothing.

Wen Tinglan added: "Oh, it's all my fault. I admit my mistake. When you asked someone to invite me to the banquet, I happened to be with Yuzhi. She asked if we could come together. She hadn't been out for a long time... She was old Qingqing, my husband died just after giving birth, so how can I refuse? Well, since you are unhappy, there will be no next time."

Yan Fu just said: "That's it."

Wen Tinglan didn't seem to know that the reason why she was able to enter the circle centered on Jiang Wang was because of Yan Fu, and it had nothing to do with the fact that she was the daughter of the Wen family and her father was Wen Yanyu. She is no better than Yi Shishi, who is already friends with Jiang Wang, but they are closer because of Chong Xuan Sheng.

But...how could Wen Tinglan not know?

…

…

The carriage and horse business is one of the main incomes of the Bao family, and the carriages of Shuofang Bo Mansion are naturally the best in the Qi Kingdom.

On the way back home, Miao Yuzhi leaned on his seat, slowly closed his eyes, and fell into a drowsy sleep.

She has been sleeping hard in recent years.

But the dazed state became clear in my mind...

This is the only strange color in the infinite darkness.

But it is also a blank place.

It's about a hundred feet in diameter, so it's not huge.

In the center of this place is a bone throne.

In front of the Bone God Throne, a piece of broken clothes lay quietly.

There is half an orchid on the corner of the clothes.

And on the throne, sat a child with innocent eyes and a cute smile - Bao Xuanjing, who was less than two years old.

Miao Yuzhi has long been accustomed to this place.

He came in and said, "Why do you have to go see Jiang Wang? I think he seems to be suspicious."

Bao Xuanjing chuckled and made a cute childish voice: "Mother, don't you want to go see him?"

In his mind, Miao Yuzhi's face looked very good. He was not as haggard as outside, and he was much more awake: "I don't need to be in such a hurry."

Bao Xuanjing said: "I want to recycle a gift, and I also need to see him in person. I must see with my own eyes his current strength and how far he has grown. Otherwise, I can't feel at ease."

"Besides his talent, is there anything special about him?" Miao Yuzhi did not ask what the gift was. She knew there would be no answer, so she only said: "He has never shown hostility towards you, towards your father, That damn guy Bao Zhongqing is also very tolerant. Why are you so wary of him?"

"Be wary?" Bao Xuanjing smiled happily: "I'm not wary, I like him. There is a person who is much more difficult to deal with than him, and he was replaced by him."

Miao Yuzhi asked: "If that person is much more difficult to deal with than him, how could he be replaced?"

"Well..." Bao Xuanjing touched his chin with his chubby little hand and said cutely: "This question is worth thinking about."

Miao Yuzhi asked again: "Since we came to see him, why were you sleeping the whole time?"

Bao Xuanjing said: "The fat man in the room is too smart... I don't want him to see any clues."

Miao Yuzhi didn't quite understand: "You are so young, no one will be wary of you, what can he see?"

Bao Xuanjing simply lay down on the bone throne. After a while, he stood up again. He turned to look at Miao Yuzhi with a sweet smile: "My dear mother... don't underestimate the wisdom of mortals~"
