The phoenix flowers bloom so gorgeously, so arrogant, and there is no restrained beauty. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
is also flashy and dazzling, but people in the world often love peonies more. The peony is noble, but the phoenix flower is too cheesy. At the same time, it is not easy to survive, and not many people are willing to plant.
But Mrs. Qi didn't know what method she used, not only successfully raised her, but also raised it so vigorously. She stared at the phoenix flower under the window, a coldness suddenly appeared in her eyes, and she asked something that had nothing to do with what Fang Cai said: "Yuanzhang sent someone back to report the news?"
Mama Shen shook her head slightly: "Not yet." ā
Old Madam Qi was silent and did not speak again. After a long while, she withdrew her gaze from the flowers and asked again, "How many days are there until the flower-viewing banquet in the Yongding Marquis Mansion?"
The invitation arrived a few days ago, because I read it many times, Shen Mama remembered it deeply, and at this time, after a little thought, she calculated the number of days: "There are still six days." ā
Old Madam Qi bowed her head and walked to the beauty couch without saying a word.
The flower-viewing banquet of the Yongding Marquis Mansion has never been held in the past, and this year is the first time. Before the Zhao Dynasty, Xia Xiang was originally two countries, and the customs of Xia were different from those of Xiangguo, and the masters of Yongding Houfu were all from Xia Kingdom, so presumably the way of organizing this flower-viewing banquet was also a little different.
It's just that if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you can't tell the difference.
Old Madam Qi slowly sat down, bent her fingers and gently tapped a few small lacquer surfaces, and told one by one: "You go back and see for yourself, what clothes the fourth and fifth girls have prepared, and what kind of hairpin rings they plan to wear." ā
Mama Shen responded one by one with a respectful expression, and then put aside the Lingyun yarn that she had been holding in her hand for a while.
Old Madam Qi said again: "Let's go and see the three girls again." ā
Although she didn't say much, Mama Shen also understood. The old lady is asking herself to inspect the wedding dress and other things prepared by the three girls...... Although Xiangguo is gone, some deep-rooted customs are still preserved. For example, the wedding dress, according to the old customs of Xiangguo, must be sewn by the bride herself.
The three girls are popular, but the wedding dress is a big deal, and if it can be changed, it can be changed, and it can be fine. In the end, it represents the face of the daughter's family, and it cannot be taken lightly.
As the first girl to come out of the cabinet in Jingningbo's mansion, it is also necessary to have a gorgeous wedding dress.
Mama Shen complimented again, but doubts also followed, and she couldn't help but lower her voice and said: "Old lady, it's not that the old slave is talkative, this Yongding Marquis Mansion is really a little unusual." Obviously, the prince is about to get married in a blink of an eye, and there is no hurry to do it in this house, so he is still distracted by what kind of flower-viewing banquet, there are really no rules at all. ā
Because it was a confidant, Mrs. Qi didn't think she was arrogant, but the expression on her face was full of indifference: "The rules are dead, people are alive, no matter what kind of rules are still set by people?"
She smiled casually: "The emperor doesn't pay attention to it, and how can the people under him pay attention to it." After all, the wedding date has been set, and when the day comes, the Marquis of Yongding will come to greet his relatives. ā
"As for the sidelines, just ignore them. ā
Mama Shen said yes, and gradually fell silent.
ā¦ā¦
Outside the door, the sun is in the sky, the clouds are slow, and the wind is smooth. In the late spring of March, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and it becomes more and more lively and noisy. The sky glowed a faint orange-red, as if it had been burned by the sun.
Taiwei sent Xiao Qi away, but he didn't go back to Jixiangyuan immediately.
She stood on the corridor of nine songs, her head held high, staring at the red sun. The sunlight was so dazzling that she couldn't help but squint. The warmth fell on her face, like a mother's gentle hand caressing.
Taiwei lost her mind for a moment.
Warm sun, fresh breeze.
It's all true.
She's also real.
But it's real, and it looks so fake.
She reached out her hand towards the blue sky. Under the sun, his skin is as white as snow, his fingers are slender, and he can't see a single cocoon. The shallot-like fingers have light pink nails, which are natural, healthy for their glow and color.
Every time she saw it, she felt very strange.
After a long time, Taiwei withdrew his gaze and took a step back.
Bizhu stood two steps away, and saw her move, breathing lightly, her throat was dry, and she also opened her legs.
Tai glanced at her slightly, and said expressionlessly: "Take a detour and go back." ā
Bizhu asked in a daze, "How do you go around?"
Tai slightly curled his lips and smiled: "The corners are falling, and you will finish it when you have seen enough little by little." ā
She has been away from home for many years, and her memories are vague. In many places, there is only a hazy shadow left in my mind, which I can't see clearly, and I can't tell it.
After walking forward for a while, Taiwei stopped.
Bizhu might as well almost bump into her suddenly, and after standing still, she saw that Taiwei didn't know where to find a copper plate, threw it upwards against the sun, caught it and pressed it on the back of her hand.
The copper plate was thrown high, and in Bizhu's opinion, it was like flying, and I don't know how she caught it easily.
The two roads in front of me are a fork.
Bizhu was still surprised, and saw Taiwei look down at her hand again. Then, Taiwei put away the copper coin and strode towards the trail on the left.
Bizhu was just stunned, and the master had already walked away.
She hurriedly raised her feet and chased after her.
Along the way, Taiwei didn't say a word, only stopping from time to time to stare at a certain place. When the maids and women I met along the way saw this scene, they couldn't help but whisper about how the five girls were a little weird.
There are several girls in the house, and the second girl doesn't like to go out and walk around the most.
Secondly, there are the five girls.
No one has ever seen the five girls wandering around like today.
Bizhu followed her all the time, and as she walked, she couldn't help but think of Madame's madness. As soon as he looked up, he saw Taiwei stop again and look into the distance.
Bizhu followed to see it, and soon recognized that it was the direction where Ziwei Yuan was located.
In Ziwei Garden, there is the mad lady of Jingningbo Mansion, the biological mother of the fifth girl Qi Taiwei, Jiang. Since Jiang moved into Ziwei Garden, he has never come out. She died in it.
I still remember what my mother said when she held her hand when she was dying.
She said that she couldn't live it, because she was not a good mother.
She said that if there is an afterlife, don't be reborn in the womb of your mother.
Taiwei remembers it clearly.
But......
After eight years, she's back.
She is still Qi Taiwei.
is still the world's number one courtier, and the daughter of a madman.
