After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of the down-and-out prince

Chapter 194 Everything is ready
The next day, after Zhou Xining got up, he packed everything up early, and only waited for He Beiting to arrive, and the two of them drove into the palace for the banquet together.It was getting closer and closer to the departure time, but she didn't wait for He Beiting, but she waited for Linfeng.

Linfeng said: "Young madam, the master and the seventh prince have been sent to the imperial study to discuss matters, and I'm afraid they won't be able to get away and come back to pick up young madam for a banquet together."

Zhou Xining smiled with the corners of his lips curled up. No matter whose trick it was or it was really a coincidence, I, Zhou Xining, have no fear!

"Let's go, time is running out."

"Girl, let the servant girl go with you, only Pinellia is alone, and the servant girl is really worried."

Ever since Zhou Xining decided to bring Pinellia to the palace for a banquet, Yingchun has said this more than once.Zhou Xining knew that Yingchun felt that Banxia acted carelessly and was a little outspoken, so it was inappropriate to follow her into the palace.

If it is appropriate, it is natural that Lonicera is the most appropriate, but the exception is Pinellia.Banxia has a pure heart, but she has the keenness to see through the truth of people's hearts at a glance.Although Yingchun has a calm temperament, in a place like the palace, just being calm is of no use.

"No, I'm going to a banquet. I don't need to bring too many people. One pinellia is enough."

"But……"

"Okay, if you also follow into the palace, who will you hand over all the affairs in this yard?" Zhou Xining patted Yingchun on the shoulder, "Take care of the house with peace of mind."

Yingchun bit her lip and turned to Banxia and said: "There is no need to go anywhere else in the imperial palace, keep your temperament under control, and be careful everywhere, don't cause trouble for the girl..."

Ban Xia wanted to refute a few words, but thinking that the girl would get hurt every time she entered the palace, she pursed her lips and nodded silently.She told herself more silently, this time she must protect the girl.

Imperial Palace, Moon Tower.

The Guanyue Tower is located on a high place in the north of the Imperial Garden. It is extremely deserted in winter, but it is a good place to hold a banquet and enjoy the scenery.The height of the land boundary will broaden the horizon. You only need to take a few steps to the high place to have a panoramic view of the entire imperial garden.

After the death of the first emperor, the empress dowager lived in the residence of the Bieyuan most of the time, whenever she returned to the palace, she would live here.Therefore, the Nuan Pavilion in Guanyue Tower is extraordinarily spacious and exquisite.

Today's banquet is held here.

As the time approached, the invited princes and ladies all arrived one after another, and those who were acquainted with each other gathered together in twos and threes to chat, and the garden was full of noise and excitement.

But the queen mother who hosted the banquet was leaning on the soft couch in the warm pavilion, sipping tea while listening to the female officer beside her whispering back.

"Miss Zhou's carriage has arrived at the gate of the palace, and the servant girl has arranged someone to guide her as instructed."

"His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince and He Shizi have left the Imperial Study Room to go to the Guanyue Tower. It is estimated that a cup of tea will arrive soon."

"Everything is ready for the empress..."

……

Seeing Xia Xin coming in, the Empress Dowager waved her hand to signal the female officer to retreat, then smiled and waved to Xia Xin: "The banquet is about to start, and Ai's family should also pass.

Wu An, no matter what happens for a while, don't talk, everything will be decided for you. "

Xia Xin lowered her eyelids and acted obediently, then stepped forward to help the Queen Mother stand up, put on a cloak for the Queen Mother, and said: "Grandmother, don't make things difficult for him for a while, he has not been easy these years. And He can't be blamed for this matter, Wu An didn't mention it to him, he didn't know about it."

"Hey, you child, what do you want Aijia to say? It's okay if you don't have that Zhou Xining. If you really want to be with her, how can you make Aijia feel relieved. I heard that Zhou Xining is very happy. Tricky and hard to deal with, it's okay if she is sensible today, but if she dares not, hum!"

Xia Xin lowered her eyes and didn't answer the words, but the hand tied with the belt paused for a moment. If Zhou Xining was sensible, he should agree when the second prince proposed to marry her in public after he carried her out of the water; The Seventh Prince should have agreed when he proposed the appointment; but she refused time and time again.

Zhou Xining has never been a person who knows what is interesting, or it is more appropriate to put it another way, she has never known what is interesting.Today, she never thought that Zhou Xining would be kind, but so what?She could think of ways to refuse the marriage, but would she dare to resist the order?

Oh, bet she dare not!

"Grandmother, in fact, there is no need to be so troublesome. If Grandmother orders, will she still dare to resist?"

The queen mother glanced at Xia Xin, and said meaningfully: "Wu An, the He family is different from other families. If He Beiting and you are in love with each other, and Zhou Xining was only obsessed with the marriage contract, the Ai family can naturally make this kind of decree." But as you said just now, He Beiting doesn't remember saving you at all. Besides, Zhou He's two families, one civil and one military, have great influence in the court, and the two have a marriage contract negotiated since childhood. The wind and rain continue, if the Ai family forcibly orders a marriage for you, it will chill their heart towards the court.

Zhou Xining can only make concessions on this matter. Firstly, you will not lose your temper, and secondly, it will not affect the court situation. "

Xia Xin nodded and said nothing more.This is the second time she has mentioned it to the queen mother. She originally thought that since the queen mother was willing to stand up for her, she should agree this time.

But still refused.

Sure enough, the family affection of the royal family is weak. If you say that you love her to the bone, if compared with the interests of the royal family, that little love is nothing.

The first time He Beiting entered the Guanyue Tower was to search for Zhou Xining's figure, his eyes instantly turned cold when he found no one.The first instinct was that something happened to her, so He Beiting wanted to go out to look for her without even thinking about it, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he ran into the Queen Mother head-on.

He had no choice but to take a step back and salute sideways.

The Queen Mother didn't notice He Beiting at first, because when everyone in the garden saw her, they stood back and bowed to one side.It was Xia Xin's words that made her pay attention to He Beiting.

"Huaiyuan, did you come here specially to pick up the Queen Mother?"

He Beiting glanced at Xia Xin coldly, met the Queen Mother's gaze, but had no choice but to bow his hands again and said: "My subject, He Beiting, pays his respects to the Queen Mother."

The Empress Dowager glanced at He Beiting, then patted Xia Xin's hand and smiled, "You kid, you used Ai's family as a cover again, he came to see you..."

Xia Xin glanced at He Beiting affectionately, then lowered her head shyly, smiled without saying a word.

The truth is, she doesn't need to say anything, the appearance in front of her is enough to make people imagine, after all, many people who came to the banquet today have heard some rumors.

He Beiting took a step back with a cold gaze, he didn't bother to explain, because it was unnecessary, imaginations would never come true.

The queen mother was a little dissatisfied with He Beiting's refusal to answer, but she still smiled and said: "It's very cold outside, everyone, stop standing and go inside."

All the people cheered and walked into the house, He Beiting took another step back, and after the Queen Mother entered the house, he left to look for Zhou Xining.

But the Empress Dowager had already stepped over the threshold with one foot, but she turned her head and waved at He Beiting: "Boy He, come, come to Ai's family, let Ai's family take a good look at you."
