In early September, the birthday party of Duke Zheng.

Duke Yuchi Huaizhong of Zheng State had the merit of following the dragon. Although his descendants failed to produce a decent status, their status was definitely not low.

Moreover, the Yuchi family has an advantage that has been passed down from generation to generation, that is, it has good popularity. Don’t look at Yuchi Hu’s stupidity. There are no enemies in the entire Tokyo, but only friends, and he is the only one of the princes and sons. Even Cao Hua in the past could treat him as half a friend. You can think about how popular Yuchi Hu is.

The reason why Duke Zheng loved Yuchi Hu the most was because the father and son were carved in the same mold. When he was young, he was also a playboy in the capital. He could not count his wives and concubines at home. Basically, he could catch up with relatives if he found someone on the street.

Sixty years old in ancient times, so he naturally had to hold a banquet. The officials in the capital basically came over, and even Cai Jing and other court officials of extraordinary status were present in person. Because Duke Zheng was very proud of his appearance, he looked as bold as Yuchi Hu, but in fact he was very careful. He remembered who came and didn't come clearly. When he was having tea and chatting with the emperor, he could not stand it.

The birthday party of Duke Zheng was much more lively than Cao Hua's engagement. There was no pressure from guests. Moreover, the Duke's Mansion had little rules and was not particular. He invited all the famous courtesans in the city to come over. Seeing this, he wanted to build a "Wine Pool and Meat Forest". Duke's wife was so popular that she was itchy, but she had no choice but to do so. She had been used to it for so many years, so she had to close the door and clean up, and to the outside world, she also wanted to do what the old Duke wanted.

Just afternoon, the wide and long street outside the Duke's Mansion was still full of carriages and sedan chairs, and they walked into the horse-drawn monument.

Cao Hua and Zhao Tianluo got off the carriage, and Han'er followed him with a gift.

Today, the six ministers and the heads of the three provinces have arrived, and there are no more princes and princes. With such a big show, the reputation of "Kyoto Tai Sui" has obviously been greatly weakened, and it can only scare 70% of the guests, and the remaining 30% have to come forward to say hello.

Zhao Tianluo was quite familiar with the conversation with the Zhao clan. When he met the officials he knew, he nodded slightly, his demeanor and attitude were impeccable.

Cao Hua also put on a cold and cold face, and the lady nodded and he nodded. The lady ignored him and ignored him. In general... there was no problem.

Outside the Zhuqi gate, Duke Zheng's younger brother welcomed the princes and nobles who came over, while ordinary officials were received by the officials, and occasionally there were high-ranking officials who went to the army. Naturally, no one dared to say anything.

Zhao Tianluo and Cao Hua were not used to showing up as husband and wife in public, but they were well concealed. In front of the elders of Zhao, they occasionally showed their affection.

As he approached the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Zhao Tianluo looked at the big gift box in Han'er's hand curiously:

"My husband, what have you prepared?"

Today, Zhao Tianluo had already prepared a gift for his birthday. He did not want Cao Hua to pay the money himself, but Cao Hua did not bring it with him.

Hearing her inquiry, Cao Hua casually said, "A golden beetle, Yuchi Hu is not bad, so it's not too shabby to come to celebrate his birthday."

Zhao Tianluo nodded, suddenly came back to his taste and frowned: "The Yuruyi I bought specifically from Qinghefang is not cheap. Could it be that my husband has something better?"

"Big means good, and more means beauty. What does the Duke of the State want to do with Yu Ruyi?"

When Cao Hua came to give gifts, he naturally would not use the Wang family's things, and he didn't have time to make a good job, so he bought a golden beetle, which was a big gift.

Zhao Tianluo was a little confused, but didn't say much. He just looked at Han'er with a cold expression: "Miss Han'er, let Teacher Hu take it when he is tired."

Han'er was absent-minded and kept secretly looking at the back of Cao Hua's head. When she heard Zhao Tianluo's words, she came to her senses and bowed slightly: "Mrs. Xie is concerned, Han'er can move."

Zhao Tianluo nodded, but did not persist.

"Princess Yong'an and Marquis Wu'an are here!"

When he walked to the gate, Duke Zheng's younger brother showed a harmonious smile and stepped forward to greet him.

The people around were also looking at each other, and many people made way. Several princes and children raised their hands to say hello.

Cao Hua looked at him and said a few words casually, then took Zhao Tianluo into the Duke's Mansion.

The corridors and pavilions were crowded with people, and officials and gentry were all wearing casual robes to chat. There were also many older generations who showed their faces next to their descendants, and they were full of polite flattery.

At the birthday party of Duke Zheng, there were naturally many people invited by Yuchi Hu, because the official Yuchi liked to be a talented man with elegance and character, so the invited people were naturally talented men and beautiful women with some reputation.

The younger generation gathered with important officials of the court and were naturally reserved, so the Duke's Mansion arranged a garden where scholars and talented girls and several invited courtesans were having fun.

Cao Hua, a head of the intelligence bureau, could not communicate with the court officials, so he took Zhao Tianluo to find a quiet place to wait for the banquet to begin.

The lights are red and the wine is green, and the orioles are singing and dancing.

Cao Hua leaned against the pillar of the pavilion and watched the people coming and going from the Duke's Mansion.

Zhao Tianluo stood in the stone pavilion and admired the beautiful scenery of the lotus pond. He occasionally looked at him sideways, but there was no topic.

When I was bored, a woman took her maid through the corridor not far from the pavilion. She was round and jade-like and elegant, but she was the Princess Yonghe Zhao Fei who had met twice.

Zhao Fei is much older than Zhao Tianluo, but they have experienced each other's life experiences and have a scent of "same disease and pity" after getting married for several days.

Zhao Tianluo had nothing to say, but at this time he finally found a savior and waved quickly:

"Sister Fei'er."

Zhao Fei stopped, but unexpectedly, seeing Cao Hua with a cold and arrogant face, her face changed.

Last time, I was inexplicably frustrated at the wedding banquet and was thrown into the pond again, and I was in a very embarrassing situation.

She was hugged by Cao Hua in despair. She didn't think clearly whether it was intentional or unintentional. When it was late at night, whenever she thought of the strangled arm, she felt her chest was stuffy and her face turned red, but she didn't dare to tell anyone about it.

Now that she has seen Cao Hua again, she still knows the inside story of "Su Shi", and how can her face look good?

Cao Hua also discovered Zhao Fei and bowed kindly: "I have met Princess Yonghe."

When someone said hello, Zhao Fei could not pretend that she hadn't heard it, so she had to bow and walk into the pavilion:

"Mr. Cao, Sister Luo'er, are you here too?"

Zhao Tianluo's face turned slightly red, and he nodded slightly and grabbed Zhao Fei's hand: "The birthday of the Duke of Zheng is naturally... Sister Fei'er, I heard that you were infected with the cold a few days ago, how could it be better?"

Zhao Fei was thrown into the lotus pond, and Zhao Tianluo also heard about it. However, there was an assassin at that time, so she could not blame Cao Hua, so she could only apologize at this time.

As for the other woman, she just thought she was an unlucky lady.

When talking about this, Zhao Fei felt a little complaining in her heart and looked at Cao Hua:

"It's already done when you take a two-day break."

When Zhao Tianluo saw her face strange, he remembered something and looked at Cao Hua with a little embarrassment in his eyes.

Zhao Fei's son-in-law died young and lived alone for many years. She brought the son-in-law here with her, so naturally she thought that Zhao Fei was sad about the scene.

Zhao Tianluo was already worried about this distant cousin with a rough life experience. He hesitated for a little, but said, "My husband, go and have a walk first. Sister Fei'er and I will talk about my daughter's private conversation."

Cao Hua nodded and took Han'er out of the pavilion.

After Cao Hua left, Zhao Fei's face relaxed a little. She took Zhao Tianluo's hand and sat down in the pavilion, showing a gentle smile: "Luoer, have you adapted recently?"

"It's fine, it's better than I thought."

"Oh... I wasn't wronged at night, did you?"

"Hmm?...ah--"

Zhao Tianluo was still confused at first, but when he saw Zhao Fei's eyes, his face turned red.

I really talked about my daughter's private conversation.

They are all women who are married to women, so it is not surprising to talk about this, but Zhao Tianluo can say that they are respectful to each other in the bridal chamber for a long time before nodding: "It's okay..."

Zhao Fei covered her mouth and smiled, and the flowers were trembling, and she was already round and smooth, and at this time she became more charming: "Cao Hua... is not as unbearable as you said. Sometimes... she is quite capable."

"Um?"

Zhao Tianluo was stunned and didn't understand why Zhao Fei, who had never had contact with Cao Hua, praised Cao Hua.

Zhao Fei naturally didn't dare to reveal the "Su Shi" incident. She just held her hand and was silent for a long time before muttering: "Oh, my sister's son-in-law, if she has 10% of Cao Hua's ability...ah..."

Zhao Tianluo admitted this praise.

It is true that Cao Hua is notorious, and his ability is real. Even if he does not have the identity of Marquis Wu'an, he is much better than the ordinary mediocre prince consort with his martial arts and appearance. What's more, Zhao Fei has no more than the prince consort now.
