The melon-eating system, everyone listens to my voice

Chapter 292 Attending the Wedding Banquet

When Lord Yang, the wronged man, heard this, he was so furious that the few black hairs on his head were clearly visible. Li Jinzi was really obsessed with money.

No wonder he said that all his colleagues have become rich recently, especially with more private money.

There are a few of them whose relationship with him is not very close, but they are willing to treat him to a drink once a month. The reason for their affection is this.

Originally, a person's calligraphy and painting techniques are fixed.

Lord Yang was once curious about the changes in these people's calligraphy and paintings, and he entrusted Li Jinzi to help him investigate secretly.

It turned out that there was a thief on his side!

Lord Yang looked aggrievedly at Emperor Yongning, who was trying to hold back his smile, and said, “Your Majesty, these people are all bad guys who are trying to cheat me of my money.”

When Emperor Yongning saw the look in Lord Yang's eyes, he couldn't ignore it.

After all, Lord Yang is really rich. Whenever there was a natural disaster in the past, he was one of the most active officials in donating money.

Emperor Yongning gave Lord Yang a soothing look, saying that he would make the decision for him and give him a promotion later.

Anyway, he has not been rewarded for his donations over the years, so this is a good opportunity.

As for Li Jinzi, he shall be punished to pay half of the money he earned!

Lord Yang is worthy of being a person who aspires to become one of the most trusted and beloved ministers of Emperor Yongning. Even though Emperor Yongning did not say anything and only gave him a look, he still understood the meaning.

He gave Li Jinzi next door a smug look.

Forget it, since Your Majesty treats me differently, I will forgive you this time.

Lord Li, who understands bad friends: Yang Qian, you don’t know how to appreciate good people.

Gua Gua: [Actually, there is a reason why Lord Li did this.

Lord Yang's mother's family was a merchant family, and his father wanted him to be a landowner. But when Lord Yang was a child, he studied with those evil young masters, and was always gossiped by some villains, saying that he was full of the smell of money.

Lord Yang also heard similar words more or less in the court.

Some officials also believed that Lord Yang’s Jin family made so much money, perhaps by competing with the common people or doing some bad business.

Although Lord Yang did not argue, he was hurt inside.

Li Jinzi only became friends with Lord Yang in recent years.

This idea came to me by chance.

Ten taels of silver for a painting, a long-term business.

It was not a lot of money, but it was enough to make so many officials feel a little embarrassed in front of Lord Yang.

It is also because of this that Lord Yang rarely hears bad comments.

His popularity has improved a lot, and different people invite him to drink every month. 】

Guagua's analysis really hit the nail on the head for Li Jinzi.

Li Jinzi loves money, but he wouldn't go to the extent of deliberately cheating his friends.

Rather than letting Yang Qian give away hundreds or thousands of taels of silver to other people's families, it would make his own career in officialdom easier.

It would be better to use this method to make others subconsciously feel a little guilty, achieving the same result through different means.

Shen Zhao: [Gua Gua, you are no longer just a melon of joy.

Praising the beauty of friendship, not bad! 】

The court meeting ended in an atmosphere of moving brotherhood.

As soon as the court was dismissed, Shen Zhao wanted to run away.

When she saw Lin Lang, she greeted him,

"Lin Lang, today is the day when the Yang family marries their daughter. Do you want to go to the Yang family's wedding banquet?"

Lin Lang, "Oh, Princess, are you talking about the happy event between the Yang and Zhou families?

All I want to go is Zhou's house.

The third son of the Zhou family and I are good friends, and my father and Lord Zhou are good friends.

The second son of the Zhou family is getting married today, and an invitation has been sent to my house. I am going to the banquet with my father."

Shen Zhao understood that the father and son were good friends of Zhou's father and son.

Her mother was a good friend of Madam Yang and she went to attend the banquet at the Yang residence.

The two chatted for a few minutes and then parted ways.

At this time, King Sheng came over.

"Zhao Zhao, father will be attending a wedding banquet later.

Do you want to go with your father?"

Shen Zhao asked, "Is it from the Zhou Mansion?"

King Sheng nodded, "Zhao Zhao, you know that too?"

Shen Zhao, "Yes, the mother of the bride, Miss Yang, Madam Yang, is a good friend of my mother. I am with my mother."

After this reminder, King Sheng also remembered.

Madam Yang was the princess's good friend before she got married.

The two of them were married only a few months apart. Later, Mrs. Yang moved away with her husband and they had little contact, and he also forgot about this relationship.

Prince Sheng, "Zhao Zhao, the banquet at Yang Mansion is almost over, you can come to Zhou Mansion.

By then, the bride and groom will be getting married, so you can join in the fun."

Shen Zhao agreed and saw his adoptive father off.

After returning home, Princess Sheng took out the casual clothes that she had already prepared for Shen Zhao.

The maid changed Shen Zhao's clothes and combed her hair into a beautiful bun.

The mother and daughter took their gifts and set off.

Yang Mansion!

Everywhere was red, hung with red silk and red lanterns. The whole mansion was filled with joy. The servants coming in and out had smiles on their faces and were nimble in their movements.

Standing at the door to welcome the guests personally were Lord Yang and Madam Yang!

This Lord Yang is not the same Lord Yang Qianyang mentioned earlier.

Yang Qian has a kind appearance and a calm personality.

Lord Yang is tall and thin, with the gentleness of a scholar, but there is a shrewdness in his eyes.

This was Shen Zhao’s first impression of Lord Yang after he got off the carriage.

As soon as Lord Yang and Madam Yang saw the carriage from Prince Sheng's mansion, they came forward to greet it.

Mrs. Yang is an emotional woman with a gentle face and a smile that has a soothing effect on people.

As soon as she saw Princess Sheng, she hugged her and choked up,

"Sister Huachu, I haven't seen you for more than ten years. Are you okay?"

Madam Yang's real name is Lin Qingwan. She grew up in the capital, but she looks more like a Jiangnan beauty.

Even the voice is gentle and soft, and if you listen carefully you can hear some tingling sensations.

Su Huachu hugged Lin Qingwan as skillfully as she did when she was a girl, and comforted her.

"Okay, Wanwan, you're already a mother, why are you still so crybaby? Be careful or Minru will find out and laugh at you."

Minru's full name is Yang Minru. She is Lin Qingwan's first child and is very much loved by her.

Shen Zhao noticed that Lord Yang was standing there quietly waiting.

But his eyes only occasionally fell on Lin Qingwan and then flashed away.

Shen Zhao immediately felt that this couple might not be as harmoniously matched as the rumors said.

But as she was just a stranger, she did not show any curiosity. When Lord Yang looked at her, she just smiled and passed by.

Lord Yang stepped forward and bowed slightly.

"I greet Princess Zhaoming!"

Shen Zhao smiled and said, "Master Yang, there is no need to be so polite.

Today you are the father of the bride and you should be the greatest.

I am here just to accompany my mother, so there is no need for Lord Yang to make such a grand ceremony."

A gleam of light flashed across Lord Yang's eyes, and he was about to open his mouth to compliment him.

Then I heard Princess Sheng shouting.

'Zhao Zhao, come here and meet your Aunt Lin.'

Shen Zhao nodded slightly to Lord Yang, then trotted a few steps and shouted, "Aunt Lin, I'm Shen Zhao, you can call me Zhao Zhao."

Lin Qingwan smiled warmly and said, "I have heard of Princess Zhaoming's name for a long time, but I never thought she was such a beautiful woman.

Sister Hua Chu, why don't you take the princess to more banquets earlier so that we can see more of her elegance. "
