On the day of the Li family's full-moon banquet, guests came and went, and officials of all ranks received invitations.

When Xie Xun came with the invitation, Su Juan disguised herself as a servant and painted her face black, and followed him. Although everything was arranged properly, she could not be absent from such a big occasion.

Seeing that she knew many of the guests, Su Juan was suspicious and muttered to Xie Xun beside her, "Do you think Lord Li has any opinion about me?"

Xie Xun waved his fan and looked down at her, "What do you mean?"

Su Juan pointed at the people not far away and said, "That one is from the Ministry of War, also of the sixth rank. And that one is from the Ministry of Personnel, of the fifth rank. How come they all received the invitations, but I didn't?"

【Isn't this a complaint against me?】

Colleagues around her who heard her voice were surprised and looked around subconsciously: Yuanwailang is here too! ?

[Thinking carefully, I haven't offended this Lord Li, right? ]

Everyone smiled and said nothing.

[You are so old, why are you still trying to exclude others? ]

Xie Xun was silent: "......"

Your son died, and as a father you still have to be punished. You are really the best in Dajin. Why don’t they invite you and exclude you?

He shook his head and went to talk to some close friends. Su Juan hurriedly followed him.

Many colleagues looked everywhere for Su Juan but couldn't find her. They were wondering: why could they only hear her voice but not see her?

But it makes sense if you think about it. If Lord Li knew that Su Juan was coming, wouldn't he kick her out?

So everyone was in a lively and peaceful atmosphere, listening to the voices that kept coming to their ears...

[Wow, even though Lord Li is not a very nice person, the food here is pretty good. It must have cost a lot of money. He must be very wealthy! ]

I'm afraid food is not the only thing on this gentleman's mind.

[I must have received a lot of benefits from others. 】

If Lord Li heard this, he would probably have to change the full moon banquet into his own funeral banquet.

【Wow, this is great wine! 】

Yes, she still had wine on her mind.

Xie Xun glanced at Su Juan and looked around. Many people were looking left and right, obviously looking for Su Juan.

Lord Li has not appeared yet. Perhaps he is being affectionate with his concubine's son. If he knew that Concubine Su had come uninvited, he would probably be so angry that fumes would be coming out of his nose.

Those who originally thought that the banquet was boring, now rolled up their sleeves excitedly. Now that Mr. Su was here, how could the banquet be boring?

Everyone was waiting, waiting for Su Juan to say something shocking. After all, as far as they knew, Lord Li had a young son in his old age, and because of the death of his son before, he did not invite a Yuanwailang to do so.

Mr. Yuanwailang has come uninvited. It's impossible that he really comes just to eat something and drink some wine, right?

But in fact, Su Juan was only concerned with eating and drinking, and even dragged Xie Xun along.

Those who didn't find the person could only wait patiently until Lord Li arrived.

Lord Li walked into the hall with Madam Li and his beautiful concubine, followed by his two sons and daughters. The beautiful concubine smiled charmingly, but Madam Li and the sons and daughters were obviously unhappy.

[This Madam Li doesn't look very happy. ]

Su Juan's voice sounded at an inopportune moment.

Lord Li almost stumbled and fell on his butt. What the hell is this?!

Why is that annoying guy named Su from the Ministry of Revenue here!

He looked around suddenly. He didn't invite this Su Juan, so how could she be so shameless to come here uninvited? ?

Xie Xun stood forward a little without leaving a trace, blocking Su Juan's figure and blocking the sight of Lord Li looking for him.

Lord Li looked everywhere but couldn't find where Su Juan was.

[But it's normal. Her son just died last year, and this year her husband is holding a full-month banquet for his concubine's son. Which mother would be happy? ]

Mrs. Li had a cold face, but the girl's words really touched her heart.

I thought my husband had gone to court over their son's matter, but he turned around and took in a concubine from nowhere, and the concubine's son was born. Now they are holding a grand full-month banquet. How can this not be heartbreaking?

What we did before was just a pretense.

[Besides, Lord Li held a grand full-month banquet for a concubine's son and invited so many guests. Isn't this an insult to Madam Li and her sons and daughters? ]

Several young men and women had sullen faces.

Legitimate sons and daughters: Even though I’m a legitimate son, I don’t get this treatment!

Bastards: They are all born out of wedlock, so why can he hold a grand full-month banquet? ?

[How confused! I am almost old, why am I so confused? I might as well change my name to Li Hutu.]

Lord Li almost lost face and glared: I'm holding a full moon banquet for my son, it's none of your business!

Everyone agreed. Isn't that the truth? It hasn't been long since his son died, but he is already holding a big full moon banquet. What's more, the Zhongzheng evaluation is not finalized yet, so he is not afraid of being criticized for being so ostentatious.

Lord Li was a backbone of the imperial court when he was young. How come he has become so confused at his age?

【Beauty is misleading!】

Everyone: Yes, yes, that’s right, beauty can mislead people!

Look at the beautiful concubine following Lord Li. She is indeed beautiful. She had just given birth to a child and her body was still a little weak. She looked even more fragile and beautiful, which made people feel pity for her.

[Look at this beautiful concubine, with a slender waist...]

Everyone: So fine!

[Skin whiter than snow...]

Everyone: White!

[Facial features like a fairy...]

Everyone: Beautiful!

[No wonder Li Hutu is so confused.]

Everyone: No wonder you’re confused!

[This little look makes me want to take a bite...]

Everyone: "Xiang Yi... cough cough cough!" What do you mean by "Xiang Yi", how can this official speak such foul language, it is really disrespectful, disrespectful to the civilized world.

Xie Xun almost laughed out loud. It was hard to be bored when Su Juan was around.

Lord Li's face almost turned green. He didn't hold this full moon banquet just to have fun for these people.

[It must be said that Li Hutu is quite lucky. At his age, he still has such a young and beautiful concubine by his side, and he can also have a son...]

Everyone: Yes, yes.

Many people cast envious glances at Lord Li. At his age, he was still lucky enough to have such a young and beautiful concubine.

Colleagues congratulated Lord Li, "Brother Li is so blessed, we are really envious."

Lord Li straightened his back immediately, his expression of satisfaction evident in his words, "No, no."

Seeing that he was almost praised by these people, Su Juan sighed, "He is so blessed. Even the old emperor would be envious!"

Everyone was silent: "......"

This is not a good thing to say.

It would be disastrous if these words got to His Majesty's ears.

Lord Li couldn't laugh anymore.

[Look at all of them, they are almost drooling over the concubine. She is just a little prettier, and the mistress is right beside them, and they are not ashamed. ]

Everyone quickly averted their gazes, but were still given a glare by the lady beside them.

[Tsk, this man, he will only behave himself if he is hung on the wall.]

Ladies: It’s hard not to agree with this!

The man who heard this got angry: Yes, yes, yes, you didn’t drool, you didn’t want to smell it, you are so noble and great!

Xie Xun coughed softly: Except me.
