Chapter 469 He is very important
Zisu turned and left; the situation was urgent, and every second counted.
For a seating capacity of 300 people, there would need to be at least 40 tables.
Since the guests were all high-ranking officials and dignitaries, the seating couldn't be too crowded. Eight people were seated at each table, and some empty tables had to be left in case someone brought an extra person or two.
Zisu told Chu Yueli that there were 300 people so that she could see the list of invitees. Of course, there was room for adjustment within that list.
The number of people entering and leaving the area will not exceed twenty.
Chu Yueli and Chu Xiaohe immediately went to the study to draft a list of invitees.
Chu Yi took batches and sent them off in batches, and the entire Duke's mansion was immediately bustling with activity.
Later, even Tuoba Liuli came out to help. Although she was blind, she could discuss the dishes with Zisu and give some good suggestions.
The list drafted by Chu Xiaohe and Chu Yueli was first used by princes and nobles, but concubines in the harem could not be invited, as they were not qualified.
After inviting a round of officials, the first to have Chu Yi send out the invitations was Chu Yi.
When Chu Yi returned, the invitations for officials of the second and third ranks had been written, and Chu Yi continued to deliver them.
Chu Yi had to deliver it personally. Although he was also a subordinate, he was Chu Xiaohe's most capable subordinate and had a certain status.
After finally finishing organizing the list, the two of them were busy for a while, and then they immediately went to the yard to help Zisu.
Chu Xiaohe, however, had a question in his mind. When he came out of the study, he couldn't help but ask, "The concubines in the harem all have to fight to please Eunuch An. Why do you ask Eunuch An to send them pills to curry favor?"
An Delu's status was extraordinary; a few words he spoke to the emperor could very well change the course of a major event.
He was far more important than any of the concubines in the harem. The emperor could change the women around him at any time, but An Delu was someone who had remained by his side for decades.
An Delu had been serving the emperor since he was a prince.
"It's not to curry favor with any concubine. Those pills are for Eunuch An."
Chu Yue knew all too well how formidable An Delu was. She leaned closer to Chu Xiaohe and whispered, "In the future, we'll still have to rely on him. If we build a good relationship with him, he can definitely be a great help."
"But what does he need these pills for?" Chu Xiaohe didn't understand.
"Everyone has a love for beauty, especially people of their status. Never mind, you're a grown man, you wouldn't understand."
However, Chu Yueli felt inexplicably good because of his thoughts.
My older brother really knows nothing about these things and isn't interested in them at all. Who says he's not a normal man?
He should be fully recovered soon; now, he just needs to overcome the psychological pressure and adjust the dosage and timing of his medication.
I just don't know who can lend him a hand.
In the courtyard, Zisu was extremely busy, and her busy figure could still be seen from a distance.
Tuoba Liuli sat not far away, holding some medicinal herbs in her hand, looking up and talking to Zisu.
Upon hearing this, Zisu immediately chose one of the options and instructed her servants to carry it out.
It's time to prepare the soup for tonight.
Zisu lowered her head and asked Tuoba Liuli something, to which Tuoba Liuli answered very seriously.
"They seem to get along really well."
Chu Yueli looked up at Chu Xiaohe standing beside her: "Big brother, have you made up your mind?"
