Chapter 160: The Awkward Banquet 2
What was the relationship between Xiao Yao and Le You Ran, Shi Zhen Xiang didn't know, at this time she just felt that Xiao Yao was an unusual house servant, but the more it was like this, the more refreshing it was, Xiao Yao was not ordinary, wasn't that even more reason to strike against Le You Ran.
So, Shi Zhenxiang was even more pleased!!
"Xiao Jiading, come with me to the next table!!" Thus, Shi Zhenxiang made a move that she would regret. She wanted to lead Xiao Yao to continue wandering around, continuing to let Xiao Yao pour wine, and strike at Le You Ran.
"Oh!" Xiao Yao didn't mind, it was just pouring wine, something he had done countless times since childhood. This was a very ordinary thing for him.
Humiliated?
This is work, I am paid for it, pouring wine is nothing, and no one comes to insult me, how can it be called humiliation?
Carefree and without worries!
However, Xiangyao is carefree and doesn't mind, but others are very concerned because the pressure Xiangyao gives them is too great!!
“……”
At this time, those who knew the identity of the carefree ones were all praying silently in their hearts not to be chosen themselves. Fortunately, only one was selected this time, so there was only one unlucky person.
Damn it! Why me!!
"Haha, what a bother, little brother poured me a drink, I'll take the first sip!! That unlucky guy can only swallow his pride now, but with the previous Shangshu gentleman, he won't think himself too unlucky, at least he's not the first one."
The next few people, one by one, poured wine and stood up immediately, speaking with great respect. The behavior of these people also made the atmosphere in the room more and more strange, and Shi Zhenxiang also began to feel a little suspicious.
What's going on, why are they being so polite to a small potato like him? If it were just one person, maybe it was just a coincidence that they knew each other, but with so many people, even if he wasn't an ordinary person, it's impossible to receive such treatment.
"Damn, you're still not done yet? Even if you want to humiliate me, isn't it enough already!!" At this time, Leyou Yan appeared beside Xiangyao, "Leyou Xiangyao. Enough, if you continue like this, the banquet will have to end here!!"
"Leisurely, don't think about causing trouble, your family's servant has taken my money for now and is temporarily under me. I just want to tell everyone that I can easily take away everything of yours, including your people!!" Shi Zhenxiang put aside her previous doubts due to Le You Ran's appearance and began her humiliation plan.
If it's said that Xiang Yang is indeed a carefree and leisurely household servant, then being carefree and leisurely would be quite embarrassing, and people would say that they can't even take care of their own people. But the current situation isn't like this, many people understand that Xiang Yang isn't a person of Le You Ran.
"Hehe, I didn't say he's my servant now, and you should be careful with your words. You said he's your subordinate, this sentence can be big or small! If you want to seek death yourself, don't drag others down with you. Some adults actually wanted to leave early, but they didn't because of etiquette." Le You Ran smiled and said, she knew what Shi Zhen Xiang wanted to do from the start, and she had planned to watch the show, but seeing this, she thought it was enough, she didn't want to see Xiao Yao being ordered around by Shi Zhen Xiang.
"I didn't drag anyone down, but you did say one thing that's true. Even if they wanted to leave, they wouldn't be able to, because it would look bad for our Shi family. Are you jealous? Your Le family is too overbearing! This kind of situation wouldn't happen in your Le family!!" Shi Zhenxiang said with a smile, and what she said was actually true. If this were any other time, the people present would agree, but at this moment, it's different!!
"Don't get me wrong, others are constrained by courtesy, not because of your Shi family!! Don't look at me with that disbelieving expression, if I call... hehe, let's call the one you think is 'my housekeeper' Le Xiangyao, and have him say a word, this banquet will be dismissed ahead of time." Le You Ran said with a smile, as if she had found something fun to do.
"Haha, so funny, even if you came yourself it wouldn't be possible, let alone just a small household!" Shi Zhenxiang laughed, she thought this was the funniest joke she had heard all day.
"Leisurely and carefree, you can tell everyone that they can leave now!" Le You Ran said with a smile to Xiao Yao.
"This doesn't sound right, I'm not the master here, it's not good to say this." Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, he didn't want to make others uncomfortable, although Shi Zhenxiang spoke a bit out of tune, but he thought the problem wasn't that big.
"It's okay, just say it, speak boldly, I won't blame you!!" Shi Zhenxiang said with a smile at this time, she was step by step pushing herself into the abyss, perhaps not a very deep one...
"Alright then! You can all leave!"
At this time, most people would not think that the phrase "xiāo yóu" could have any effect, because they would not think that anyone would leave because of this phrase, and even if someone did, it should not have a big impact.
Shi Zhenxiang and others are still preparing to watch a good show, wanting to see how this joke-like thing happens!!
However, something unexpected happened. Just after the carefree remarks were made, some people began to leave their seats. These individuals were all high-ranking officials in the court, and although they only accounted for a small portion of the total number of people present, they occupied the vast majority of importance.
Their reasons once again present a fascinating phenomenon of a hundred flowers blooming together.
"I ate too much today, I should go home early and exercise a bit, lose some weight!"
"It's dark, I'm afraid of the dark!"
"My mom is calling me back home for dinner..."
“……”
No matter what reason, it seems that no one has mentioned Xiaoyao, even if it is now clear that it is related to Xiaoyao, but still no one has mentioned Xiaoyao.
Because Ning Zhiyuan had once given an order prohibiting discussion of carefree matters!
It wasn't long before the party had to be called off, as it was pointless without the guest of honor. But from start to finish, nobody could figure out what the point of it all was anyway.
"Director Zheng, give me a reason?" The helpless Shi family went to investigate, they couldn't stop these people from leaving at this time, but just wanted to figure out what was going on.
"You've gotten into a lot of trouble, your daughter wants to have fun and be carefree, but she's found the wrong target, she shouldn't have gone after that little...little brother, or else it might bring trouble..."
"Why? Who is this little...little brother?"
"You'll know this, all I can say is that if Princess Chang finds out about the current situation, you're in trouble..."
“……”
Mr. Zheng felt that since he had said so much, it was enough, and he believed the Shi family would soon figure things out and know everything!
In fact, the reason why the high-ranking officials of the court are so tense and relaxed is not because of the possibility that Xiao Yao may be a member of the royal family, nor is it due to Ning Zhiyuan's relationship, but because of Princess Chang!
The Empress Dowager's previous attitude made it clear that Xiao Yao would not become anyone's subordinate, and today, Shi Zhenxiang happened to offend this taboo, which made the dignitaries very afraid, fearing trouble.
Everyone knows that Princess Chang is a madwoman, and when she goes crazy, she can do anything. With her identity and strength, even if she kills them all, there won't be any trouble at all.
Everyone knows that Princess Chang wanted to take action against the Yue family at that time, and the reason is that the Yue family treated Xiao Yao as a servant, let alone the Shi family!
What's wrong with you guys? Why did you make him serve us and pour wine for us? Isn't this just asking for trouble?!
Previously, we didn't want to appear unnatural because of his views and thoughts. Now that everyone says it's okay to leave, why not leave? Are you really staying behind to see the Shi family "humiliated"? You're looking for your own death, don't drag us down with you! We haven't seen anything!!
It's best if nothing had ever happened, otherwise, provoking the long princess's anger is unbearable for anyone!!
"How did this happen? Why?"
Shi Zhenxiang stared at the situation in front of her, she was stunned, completely and utterly stunned!
She didn't understand what was going on, why the words of this little homebody could have such an effect. Was this giving face to the Le family? No, it shouldn't be, even if the master of the Le family came, it wouldn't have such an effect.
"You'll know why soon enough, I've said it before but you just didn't believe me. It's over, this party is ending and your work is done too." Leyouyan said with a smile, she was delighted to see the outcome.
"Not yet, aren't there still people here? I need to continue helping with pouring wine..." Xīao Yóu took a look around and saw that only a small portion of the guests had left, so this banquet was still quite large. As such, he felt his task was not yet complete.
"You're still pouring wine? Are you trying to harm people? Do you want your aunt to come and settle the bill with them?" Leyou Ran said, pulling Xiangyao away in a bad mood.
"What's the point of finding them?" Xiao Yao was puzzled for a moment and couldn't figure out this point.
"Your aunt wouldn't like you to be a servant, you have noble blood, she would punish anyone who dares to treat you as a servant, and in severe cases, might even kill them!" Le You Ran looked at Shi Zhen Xiang beside her with ill intentions, this sentence was clearly meant to intimidate Shi Zhen Xiang.
"Who is his aunt?"
He glanced at the starry sky with a carefree expression, then said in an affected tone: "You'll know soon enough! Let's go, Liao Yu, look, people are already starting to disperse!"
At this time, due to the departure of important figures and the eerie atmosphere, some people also left, and the more they did so, the more people left.
And historians did not stay behind, which is also one of the reasons why everyone went further and further!
"Are you happy and carefree? Are you siblings? Is he a member of your Le family?"
