Chapter 251 I Never Tell Lies
The next day, early in the morning in the capital, the residences of all high-ranking officials were busy.
A spring banquet will be held in the palace today. Governor Ning has personally issued an order requiring all officials above the fifth rank to participate.
These words, which seemed like an invitation but were actually a threat, made countless people grit their teeth in hatred.
Many officials were very angry, but no one dared to say they would not go.
This is because the tragic plight of officials who have been against Ning Yuxi in the court in recent days has sounded the alarm for this group of people countless times!
They may not rely on Ning Ze, but if they go against him, there will definitely be no good ending!
Therefore, although countless people are angry in their hearts, they will not show it on the surface.
Princess Duanyang's Mansion.
Xie Yulong arrived early in the morning. He had agreed with Princess Duanyang yesterday that they would enter the palace together today.
After all, it was a spring banquet held for the master, and the two of them had to go and show their support no matter what!
Princess Duanyang is very different now than before. She used to be fooled by others and believed everything others said, but now she has her own opinion!
She dressed up carefully, chose the gift herself, and then went out happily with her cousin to meet her fairy!
There were many people entering the palace today, and the two of them saw the carriage of Xu Chenghuan and his wife from a distance.
Xie Yulong saw them and immediately greeted them with a smile, "Sister Cheng Huan, are you guys going to the Spring Banquet too?"
Xu Chenghuan smiled and said, "Yes, although there is no official in our mansion, but today is the master's banquet, I told Chengyi to follow their family over."
Xie Yulong smiled and said, "That's great! My cousin is here too. Let's go together!"
Princess Duanyang smiled at Xu Chenghuan, "Sister Chenghuan."
Xu Chenghuan smiled back, "Her Royal Highness the Princess is here too. I apologize for your rudeness!"
Princess Duanyang said kindly, "Sister Chenghuan is very polite, but you don't have to be so polite with me."
Xu Chenghuan was about to agree with a smile when a little girl in a pink dress emerged from the carriage beside him. She had a soft and pretty appearance, and a huge gem on her head shone brightly.
The woman stuck her head out and enthusiastically addressed Xie Yulong and the other two, "I suppose this must be Her Royal Highness the Princess, Second Young Master Xie of the Marquisate, and Miss Xu?"
Princess Duanyang, Xu Chenghuan and Xie Yulong looked at each other, and it was obvious that they did not know this person at all.
The woman smiled coquettishly and said, "I am the sister of the wife of the Rongchang Marquis's Mansion. My name is Ji Zihan. You can just call me Zihan."
Upon hearing this, Xu Chenghuan, Xie Yulong and the other two just smiled politely and had no intention of making close friends!
But Ji Zihan was very familiar and said, "From what I heard from you just now, it seems that you are very familiar with the Dugong's wife. You even called her Master. What's going on?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a scolding voice came from the carriage, "Zi Han, shut up and stop talking nonsense!"
As she spoke, the carriage curtain opened, and a beautiful woman dressed in elegant and graceful attire stepped out. She apologized to the three of them, "I am a concubine, and I beg Your Highness the Princess and you two to forgive me for my rudeness."
Princess Duanyang smiled kindly and said, "It's the wife of the Marquis of Rongchang. It's been a long time since we last met."
Madam Rongchang chuckled and said, "Yes, Your Highness, we haven't seen each other for several years since your wedding."
Princess Duanyang said somewhat embarrassedly, "I was too bored before, but I won't do that anymore. Madam Rongchang, if you have nothing to do, please come to my house more often!"
After all, the two of them had a good relationship before they got married!
Madam Rongchang nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Princess."
Ji Zihan listened to the two of them talking back and forth, but they didn't allow her to speak, and her pretty little face looked very unhappy!
She had finally made the trip and met so many dignitaries. If she wasn't allowed to speak, how could she make friends with these people from prominent families?
And there was the wife of the Governor. She was full of curiosity about this person. Just think about it, a woman who had been married for the second time was actually able to marry the Governor Ning of the current dynasty. She must be a very resourceful woman!
Thinking of Ji Zihan, she glared at her elder sister beside her in displeasure.
She didn't care whether Mrs. Rongchang was angry or not. She would always interject from time to time while they were talking, acting familiarly.
The Governor's Mansion, a majestic and extravagant palace, is located in the most expensive and luxurious area of the capital. At this moment, it is being bathed in the warm sun, with the light mist being dispersed by the golden light, and the bright flowers being bathed in transparent water vapor.
At this moment, palace maids were shuttling back and forth in the hall, and countless extremely gorgeous jewelry and clothes were being quickly delivered into the hall.
Xiao Tu was stroking her chin as she looked at the items carried by the maids one by one. After selecting them, she pointed five people forward, then turned to look at the person behind her and said, "Ning Cuo, please help me see which of these five items would look best on me when I enter the palace today?"
After saying that, she looked at the man with a bright smile!
She had already made up her mind that if Ning Cuo couldn't pick the clothes she wanted to wear today, she would use this as an excuse to bully him without mercy!
Thinking of Xiaotu's little face, her smile became even more beautiful!
Ning Cuo was sitting on a big chair reading a memorial. Upon hearing this, he raised his narrow eyes and glanced at her with a wicked smile, then curled his lips and said, "She'll look good in any of them!"
Xiao Tu immediately said unwillingly, "No, you must choose one!"
Ning Cuo smiled dotingly, "Why don't you try them one by one for me, Madam, so I can make a decision!"
Xiao Tu hesitated after hearing this, "Okay then!"
As she spoke, she grabbed a bright red glass dress and went into the inner room, then quickly changed and ran out.
Xiao Tu smiled and circled in front of the man, like a ball of burning fire, so beautiful and dazzling that the whole room was brightened up because of her.
In the hall, Ning Cuo put down the memorial and read it intently. Even when the girl turned to him and threw herself into his arms, he never took his eyes off her.
Xiao Tu smiled radiantly and winked at him, "How about this set? Is it good?"
Ning Cuo curled his lips and praised without hesitation, "Good, beautiful, as bright as the morning sun, as gorgeous as peaches and plums, dazzling and gorgeous, stunning the whole city and the whole country!"
Xiao Tu laughed when she heard that. She looked at the man with her beautiful eyes and asked, "Is it really that good?"
Ning Cuo smiled charmingly and said, "Yes, Madam's beauty is unparalleled in history!"
Xiao Tu's eyes curved into crescents as she smiled, her expression delicate and charming as she asked the man, "Am I particularly good then?"
Ning Cuo said without hesitation, "You are the most perfect woman I have ever seen. No one in the world can compare to you. You are simply too perfect, so perfect that I can't believe it. You belong to me!"
Xiao Tu couldn't stop laughing, covering her lips with her hands. "Really?"
Ning Cuo said seriously, "I never tell lies!"
