At this time, An Xia had Uncle Wan sent away and was carefully checking whether there were any omissions in the list of invitations to the legitimate son's banquet.

The preparations for the legitimate son's banquet are almost complete, and the date is scheduled for the sixth day of the lunar month.

All the invitations that should be sent have been sent out. If it were earlier, many people might not pay attention to this invitation from Jian'an Marquis Mansion. After last night, everyone will definitely come.

This is how the elite circle in the capital is. Wherever the wind blows, everyone will gather in that direction.

The Marquis of Jian'an's Mansion has been in such a big spotlight this time, and no one will be denied face as long as they are not stupid.

Tan's mother and Bei Hui entered the Manhua Hall while talking.

Bei Hui reported to Tang Chujun and Shi Anxia, ​​"Madam, girl, there seems to be a rush over there."

"Then let them be more anxious." Shi Anxia was waiting for this moment, "Go and notify everyone. At midnight tomorrow morning, all the servants of the Hou Mansion will gather in the main hall of the main courtyard. Madam will redeploy manpower."

Northern fennel should be down.

Tan's mother stepped forward and asked, "Miss, do you need to go to the Duke's Mansion to send someone here now?"

Shi Anxia pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Thank you. Tan, mother, will go out of the house now to invite my aunt to come and watch the show in the evening. In terms of manpower, just call on thirty guards."

Tan's mother and Bei Hui took orders and hurried away.

After the two left, Shi Anxia asked someone to invite Yan's mother over.

Yan's mother walked into the Flower Hall anxiously, "Madam, eldest lady, old slave..."

Tang Chujun smiled and said, "Mother Yan, don't be afraid."

Shi Anxia also smiled and offered to sit down, "Mother Yan, sit down."

How could Yan's mother dare to sit down? She lowered her head and said, "Madam, the eldest lady Mingjian, the old slave was indeed sent by the old lady to Haitang Courtyard to watch over the madam..."

Shi Anxia said, "Mom Yan, there is no need to explain, I know everything. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you to tell grandma everything in detail a few days ago. You did a good job."

Yan's mother still lowered her head and explained, "The old slave is a son of the Hou family. The lives of the family are in the hands of the old lady and Aunt Wen."

Shi Anxia looked at Yan's mother's honest face and remembered that in her previous life, after her mother died, except for Aunt Zhong who was heartbroken in the courtyard, Yan's mother secretly burned paper money for her mother.

As a result, Aunt Wen caught her revealing herself, so she found an excuse and beat her.

Since his rebirth, Shi Anxia has engaged in psychological warfare with Mrs. Shi several times, including Yan's mother who has contributed to the situation. But she explained what should be said and what should not be said.

Shi Anxia said warmly, "Mama Yan, now I need you to cry in front of grandma and tell her that the madam doesn't want you to be a errand. The bigger the problem, the better, do you understand?"

Yan's mother raised her head in shock, "Did you tell the old lady on purpose? Or does the lady really not want the old slave anymore?"

She likes to be an errand in Haitang Courtyard. The lady is kind-hearted and never beats or scolds her servants. During the holidays, he would also give red envelopes to his servants to celebrate the occasion.

Although she has been the old lady's spy for all these years, she has never said anything bad about her or done anything detrimental to her.

Speaking of which, she is trying to please both sides, which is a very shameful behavior.

Tang Chujun finally spoke, "Mother Yan, from now on you will be the most powerful manager in Haitang Courtyard besides Aunt Zhong."

Yan's mother was overjoyed and had no more doubts. She kowtowed and thanked her, and ran to He'an Courtyard. On the way, I met Mrs. Chen who came to ask for Madam, "Did you know? Madam is going to have a big change tomorrow morning and redeploy manpower."

Mother Chen said disdainfully, "What does it have to do with me? Could it be that Madam still dares to touch the people in Old Madam's courtyard?"

Yan's mother sneered, "Old Madam has to bow to Madam now, even if she touches those of you who are waiting, what does it mean?"

Mother Chen's face changed drastically, her mind went blank, and she even forgot about going to invite the wife.

Soon, Yan's mother's earth-shattering cry came from He'an Courtyard, saying that she had no merit but hard work. After all, she is an old person in Haitang Courtyard, but the madam actually said that she would not want her if she didn't want her, and even wanted to transfer her to the laundry room.

So the news that the servants of the Hou Mansion were to be redeployed spread to every corner of the Hou Mansion. In some positions, everyone knew about it before Bei Hui had time to notify them.

Mother Yan was the person the old lady placed beside Tang Chujun, so Aunt Wen naturally knew about it.

She was filled with hatred, with crazy flames dancing in her eyes, "Tang Chujun moved very quickly! He was rushing to see the King of Hell!"

Mother Liu originally wanted to wait a few days before implementing the plan, but now it is imminent.

Just tonight! The arrow is on the string and must be fired!

Aunt Wen held down Mother Liu's hand and said, "The medicine cannot be poured directly into the food. This time, it must be hit with one blow."

Mother Liu was startled. The medicinal powder has been given to the people in the kitchen, and they have agreed to do it in a few days.

After hearing this, he immediately responded, "Yes, I will go get the medicine right now."

"No, it's too conspicuous." Aunt Wen took out a packet of powder from the hidden compartment of the dressing box, "It all depends on tonight..."

In the Manhua Hall, Shi Anxia was still sitting on the chair holding Mrs. Tang, and was seriously explaining to Nan Yan and others how to perform their respective duties.

When dusk fell, the guards borrowed from the Duke Protector's Mansion quietly surrounded the entire Hou Mansion. Under the calm surface, there are turbulent waves.

Even the big black dog Ye Baoer's ears stood up, as if he heard an undercurrent coming.

Chen Yuan accompanied Shi Yun to Haitang Courtyard for dinner. When he saw Shi Anxia, ​​he nodded lightly with eyes.

Shi Anxia also nodded lightly, but said to Shi Yunqi, "Brother, I can lend it to your people."

Shi Yun raised his eyebrows and asked Chen Yuan with a smile, "Are you mine?"

Chen Yuan looked at the two brothers and sisters who looked very similar, and quietly felt cold, but he was too lazy to respond.

Shi Yunqi said seriously, "He said yes."

"Oh, I heard that." Shi Anxia suppressed a smile, "Chen Yuan, do me a favor... Nan Yan, come here, you take Chen Yuan to get someone."

He only has one tael of silver a month, so you can't be polite to him. I don’t know which noble family it belongs to, but it can only be used every day.

Chen Yuan said nothing, looked up at Shi Anxia, ​​and followed silently.

Dongli passed by him and whispered into Shi Anxia's ear, "Girl, everyone has been locked up in the side courtyard in the northwest corner."

Shi Anxia nodded, and then heard Xi Yue coming into the courtyard to report, "Girl, the eldest lady of the Protector's Palace is here."

Hearing this, Shi Anxia raised a beautiful smile and said, "Please invite aunt in quickly."

A graceful and beautiful woman, surrounded by two personal maids, came swaying and graceful.

Shi Anxia came forward and bowed, "Xia'er pays homage to my aunt."

This beautiful woman is none other than Tang Chuyu's wife Zheng Qiaoer. "I heard there is a good show going on today? Where is your mother? Why is she nowhere to be seen?"

Shi Anxia whispered, "Mother, she has personally gone to invite the head of the Shi family and the clan elders. The show will start soon. Just wait."

Just as he was talking, Mother Zhao, the steward of the large kitchen who distributed meals to various courtyards, came in with people carrying food boxes.

At the other end, Mother Liu returned to the Rose Garden with an ugly face, and went straight to Aunt Wen's bed, "Auntie, it's not good! The eldest lady of the Protector's Palace is here!"

Aunt Wen asked coolly, "When you come, you come. What's the hurry?"

"But...but, what if she also stays in Haitang Courtyard for dinner?"

"Then we can only blame her for her bad fate." Aunt Wen seemed to be unable to feel the pain. She sat up and said leisurely, "Even if it fails, just let the person who drugged him admit it. Her son is in our hands, so we are not afraid of her. deny……"
