Chapter 595 Invitation
The prince of the British government hosted a banquet, and invitations were sent to almost every honorable person, aristocratic family, and official family in the capital.
The prince of the British government is returning home, and there has been a lot of gossip before, so everyone is curious. Those who received the post said they would come to congratulate them.
Sister Huo Xi also sent many posts.
Pei Runze and Pei Youjing father and son were very puzzled when they received the post from the Duke's Mansion.
They are businessmen, and if they want to do business smoothly, they will also give dry stocks to some prominent figures and ask for protection. But the British government is a relationship that they can't even ask for.
Here, the British government sent them invitations?
"Father, is this the wrong delivery?"
Pei Runze glanced at his son, "There are so many people in charge in the government of the People's Republic of China, can this kind of thing be wrong? Can the name be wrong too?"
"Then we haven't dealt with the British government. They invited us to a banquet?"
How does this say?
It is not easy for them to climb up to the real power and become an official. It is still the British government, such a great honor! The father and son were both excited and inexplicable.
Isn't this really a mistake?
Which partner is the British government behind it? The father and son hurriedly pulled and pulled, but they didn't find a clue.
He Feng and Yan Sui also received invitations.
The two people are just ordinary hundred and thousand households stationed in the Beijing Guard. The British company is not their immediate boss, so invite them to a dinner?
Where does this start?
Hearing that they had received an invitation from the British government, Commander Ning of the guard was puzzled. He didn't receive the invitation, but the two low-ranking officials did?
A hundred households? Climb to the Duke's Mansion?
Could it be that this guy He Feng is some kind of relative of Duke Ying?
Commander Ning made up his mind, and no longer dared to yell at Lai Yan Qianhu and He Baihu, and he was polite to them. He also said that if you have any difficulties, just mention them, and don't worry about raising them boldly.
He Feng and Yan Sui were confused, and they read and read the posts, but they couldn't figure out why.
Fang Qi and Gu Yu's house was much more relaxed and happy.
The two good friends had long been told by Huo Nian that they would not be able to study in the Boya Academy, and they cried so much that they burst into tears. I thought that Huo Nian was going to travel somewhere again, moved to another place, and I would never see him again.
Seeing that his friends were sad, Huo Nian told them about his identity.
When the two good friends heard that he was still in the capital, they immediately became happy again.
Anyway, we can meet again in the capital.
The two children have never been in contact with any high-ranking families, and they don't have any special ideas about the Duke's Mansion. After returning home, I didn't mention this to my family.
It was not until the family received the invitation that the two families were dumbfounded.
What kind of **** luck did my son step on to become good friends with the prince of the Duke's Mansion. Their family has already established a relationship with the Duke's Mansion.
Is it about to jump to the floor?
Fang Qi's father, Fang Qingzhuo, is an eighth-rank city gate official, and his family can be regarded as an official family. After a few more decades, they might be able to move forward.
Although I was pleasantly surprised, it was okay, not as big a reaction as Gu Yu's family.
The Gu family is just an ordinary businessman. It is not easy to establish a firm foothold in the capital and do business. If you make it small, you will be trampled on, and if you grow too big, you will be squeezed and suppressed everywhere, and you will take money to seek asylum, but no one will take care of you.
You can't climb high into the official family.
Even if you smile at the high-ranking officials every day, they won't care about you. But son, inadvertently brought such a big relationship to the family.
"Son, daddy's baby, our family can take a breather. My son is a nobleman in the family! Sure enough, the old Taoist is right, my son is lucky and has the support of noble people. He will be rich and powerful! Let's go, follow Dad Go to the storeroom, let's pick out some sweet gifts for your classmate. Don't let people underestimate us!"
Ouch, son, what kind of **** luck is this.
Still looking for some kind of relationship everywhere, entrusting 60 to 70% of the business that he has painstakingly managed, and he will not get asylum, and will only reach out to him for money. I have worked hard for nothing, and only make money for others.
In a few days, he took back the dry shares and sent them all to Yu'er's eldest classmate.
At that time, let's see who dares to bully you!
Father Gu immediately raised his chest and looked up with a lot of air. He raised a wonderful son! very nice.
Also unexpected was Dong Chuxue.
Dong Chuxue also guessed Huo Xi's identity. She has a relative in the exile, but her parents are just ordinary people.
Until Huo Xi sent someone to call Shihua over. It was only then that she realized that the rumor in the capital that the British wife and two children were not dead was actually someone she knew.
Made her absent minded for a long time.
The younger sister Huo Xi she saw was always smiling, looking calm, but she didn't expect that the siblings had such backgrounds.
They were less fortunate than she.
Fortunately, I met the kind-hearted Huo family couple, otherwise I would have lost my life.
"Husband, my sister is afraid that there are not enough manpower when she first returns to the Duke's mansion. Shall we help her find some more? I'm afraid it won't work if there is only one servant."
Guan Minzhi comforted her: "Don't worry, the young master will help arrange it."
"Master?"
Guan Minzhi nodded: "The eldest young master seems to be interested in Miss Huo."
"real?"
It would be great if sister Ruoxi could marry into the Duke of Qian's mansion! Mrs. Cheng is a very good-tempered person.
Guan Minzhi was also happy for them, looked at his wife's stomach, "Why don't you go, there are probably a lot of people that day, if something happens to your stomach..."
"I just need to be more careful. I'll go earlier, and then I'll just stay in sister Xi's yard."
"Okay then. Let's go earlier then."
All the families who received the invitation were talking about the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, and about the siblings who had lived outside for many years.
Some are sympathetic, some are curious, and some are watching the fun.
"It is said that the British government is rigorous in governing the army and the family. I am afraid that there will be a lot of excitement. How could Mrs. Wu be reconciled to seeing the position of the prince fly away?"
People who have come into contact with the Wu family all know her ambition. After so many years of operation, how can she not make a fuss when fetching water from a bamboo basket?
In the prince's mansion, Zhang Biyao was also asking the prince for instructions, and wanted to go back to her mother's house.
In less than a month, Zhang Biyao has calmly accepted the fact that she shares a man with many women.
Now she is beginning to realize that men are unreliable, and only a good natal family can provide her with a strong backing.
Because of the achievements of her father and ancestors, the crown prince and side concubines did not dare to tease her, and were polite to her. It made her feel comfortable.
Women of the royal family have a keen sense of smell and strong political sensitivity.
The prince is in a difficult situation. It is time to seek the support of honorable ministers. When dealing with Zhang Biyao, from the prince to the prince's concubines, they all choose to support Zhang Biyao and dare not offend easily.
In the Prince's Mansion, among the many women, Zhang Biyao has the highest status. Although she was only a concubine, the prince promised her that when she gave birth to a child, he would raise her position.
No matter how annoyed and unwilling Zhang Biyao was before, now she is slowly accepting this fact.
Now I am looking forward to having a son by my side, and in the future, a mother will be more valuable than a son. I hope that the status of her natal family can be stabilized so that she can live a more comfortable life in the Prince's Mansion.
The prince agreed to her request and said that he would go to the British government with her that day.
