Chapter 44: The Birthday Banquet III

Sure enough, after walking away from the song for a while, I heard footsteps in front of me, and Ji Qiongying hurried towards the Caoxiang Courtyard with the maid. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info Lige didn't want to run into them, so he flashed behind the tree, and waited for them to pass, and then continued to walk towards the library.

When Ji Qiongying arrived at the Caoxiang Courtyard, Song Heipang had already woken up. Ji Qiongying was very dissatisfied with the fact that the Song family's cousin did not go back to her yard to eat and rest, and Song Hei coaxed her for a long time, and the two reconciled.

Ji Qiongying pulled Song Heipang out of the Caoxiang Courtyard and left the song no more. Song Heipang also disliked that this grass incense courtyard was too cold, except for the warmth on the big kang, the rest of the place was cold.

finally sent away the Song family boy and Miss Ji San, and Granny Mu breathed a long sigh of relief and sat on the big kang to make clothes for Lige. Old man Zhang sat next to him and drank tea. Both of them have been with the song for many years and are used to being pure.

Old man Zhang sat with his head bored for a while, then looked at the door again, and then said to Granny Mu angrily, "I said, when will we be able to tell Miss about her biological mother." ”

Granny Mu sighed slightly, "When you and I were able to come to the palace to take care of Miss, we swore a poisonous oath not to tell Miss about her biological mother. If the opportunity is right, I will try my best to tell Miss Lige about her biological mother, but now that she is still young, if she leaves the Qi Palace, where should she go? And the prince will not agree to her leaving, if she does, he will not insist on rushing Miss back in the first place. ”

Old man Zhang thought about it, and this is also the truth, things can only be seen on the side. I didn't mention it anymore, and only talked to Granny Mu about what should be planted in the yard in winter.

Because of the prince's birthday banquet, the people in this palace were all supported to turn around, and because the masters were happy today, the people who were on the errand could easily get the reward, so the people in the library all ran out to join in the fun, and only an old man was left guarding.

The nearest song is often here, the old man doesn't care about her, she runs into the library by herself, because thinking that it has snowed heavily in the past few days, and the house is covered in silver, it should be quite good-looking, so she went to the pantry by herself, brought boiling water to make tea, and then climbed to the third floor with a pot of hot tea, pushed open a window, and saw the snow-white ground and roof in the palace, because there was a happy event, there were many red lanterns hanging in the inner and outer courtyards.

Lige took two books, moved the stool to the window, shrunk on the stool to read, although it was cold, but after reading a book for a while, just look at the scenery outside the window for a while, it is also interesting.

I don't know how long it took, but Lige touched the teapot next to him and found that the tea was cold, so he thought about going to the first floor to change a pot of hot tea. When I walked to the second floor, I heard a voice on the first floor, and I was so fascinated by reading a book just now that I didn't notice if anyone came to the library. She was very curious, even its male owner rarely came to this library pavilion, and today was such a lively day, could it be that her father had time to come to the library to sit?

Lige thought about it, carefully put down the teapot, tiptoed up the stairs, and looked out, and there were two or three men sitting on the other side of the study, all of whom he didn't know. Seeing that they wouldn't leave here for a while, Lige went back to the third floor, and continued to shrink on the stool to read, anyway, they weren't very thirsty, and when they left, it was time for them to go back.

After reading the book for a while, I actually heard footsteps coming to the third floor, and Lige didn't want to meet them, so he carefully put the stool back in its place, half-closed the window, and then ran to the corner to continue to sit and read.

After a while, I heard footsteps, the sound of windows opening, and a man complaining, "It's very windy, don't open so many windows." ”

Another man said, "Not to mention, who knew that the head of the Song family was afraid of the cold wind." "It seems that the man who complained just now is Concubine Song's brother.

The third man smiled and said, "I finally came to the Qi Palace, you didn't take me to see and see, but took me to this deserted place, did you do something bad and want to avoid some people?"

The second man responded, "You're not from Yancheng, so you don't know." In this Qi Wang's Mansion, the most precious thing, in addition to King Qi's private library, is this library pavilion. Most of the books in the collection were brought from the imperial palace in the past. There are some books that are only available here among the five kingdoms in the world. ”

Lige listened with his ears pricked up, and his heart was also surprised, his father's library was so powerful? No wonder some books seemed to be a little old. remembered that he took the book here on weekdays and brought it back to the Caoxiang Courtyard directly, and no one stopped him. It seems that his father was not a book-loving person.

The head of the Song family said, "No wonder, Brother Guigu is coming to Zhaozhao Kingdom for the first time, come, let's take a look at what books are collected here, and see if there are any treasures." ”

The man known as Brother Guigu said, "I came to the Qi Palace's Mansion this time to see the treasure." ”

The other unknown man laughed, "Baby, speaking of baby, I came to the birthday banquet today to see Prince Qi's eldest daughter." ”

The head of the Song family said, "Qionghua, what's wrong with her? Although she is also a treasure of the Qi Palace, she is just a little girl. ”

The man just said, "It's not her, I've heard that the one who has been living in the back garden." ”

When I listened to the song, my spirit was shocked, wasn't she the one who lived in the back garden?

The head of the Song family spoke again after a long while, "Everyone is a friend, so I'll just say it directly, in this case, don't mention it to others." Few people know about that girl, and if you tell someone else, I'm afraid it will make King Qi unhappy. ”

The man just now hurriedly replied, "I know, I know, don't I just look at the three of us together, and then talk about it?" I won't mention it to others, and I don't know if she will attend the family banquet in this Qi Palace's mansion tonight." I've heard that this girl has never been to a family dinner before. ”

Brother Guigu was very curious and said, "Who are you talking about?"

The head of the Song family laughed twice and disguised, "It's an illegitimate daughter of Prince Qi." ”

Brother Guigu's voice was very cheerful, "Really, such a serious person as Prince Qi actually has an illegitimate daughter? Who is her real mother?"

The other two people were silent for a moment, and finally the head of the Song family said, "The royal family has a ban on these things, prohibiting us from discussing this issue in private, you know, the royal family's face." Let's hurry up and see what good books are here, put them in our arms when we like them, and turn around and ask Lord Qi to see if they can be given to us. ”

After listening to the song, I was very distressed, I was really worried that these three people had taken away the good books, and I was worried that they would go to the last row and see themselves. He paid special attention to the sound of their footsteps.

Fortunately, after a while, the old man from the library came up and reminded the three of them, "King Qi asked the little servant to come and tell the three masters, saying that he has recently obtained a few treasures and is in the study in the outer courtyard, please go over and appreciate them together." ”

The head of the Song family took the other two men and left. Li Ge breathed a sigh of relief, and walked out of the corner, just in time to see the hot tea they had just brought up, so he drank two large cups. When I have something on my mind, I can't read a book. Thinking that Song Heipang and Ji Qiongying should have left the Caoxiang Courtyard, they went back the same way.

Granny Mu knew that Lige was going to attend the family banquet in the Qi Wangfu at night, so she had already prepared hot water, and when she saw Lige coming back, she forced her to take a bath and change clothes, and then finally helped Lige dress up in advance. Lige wore a dark coat of quaint green, and then wore a dark red cotton waistcoat, and a black cotton cloak embroidered with goldfinches.

When has Granny Mu seen Lige wear such good clothes, and saw this little person who she had seen since she was a child, with a small snow-white face, although the color of the clothes on her body was old-fashioned, but it couldn't hide her appearance and aura at all. Granny Mu couldn't help but her eyes were wet, "The longer Miss is, the better." The most hateful thing is that they actually sent clothes in old-fashioned colors, but fortunately, only our young lady can hold up these colors. ”

Lige touched the clothes on her body, and she was still very happy in her heart, after all, she was still a child, and this time she had new clothes, and these new clothes still had beautiful embroidery on them.

Granny Mu wiped her tears for a while, picked herself up, and urged Lige to go to Princess Qi in the main courtyard to ask for peace, "There are no girls around Miss, so I'll accompany Miss tonight." ”

Although Lige was reluctant to let Granny Mu suffer with him in the cold weather, he thought that it was good to have Granny Mu by her side, at least Granny Mu knew more than herself, and she could also remind herself of what to do and what not to do.

Leaving the Caoxiang Courtyard, Granny Mu sighed with emotion, "Fortunately, there is no snow today, otherwise the shoes and pants would be wet when I walk from the Caoxiang Garden to the main courtyard." These women are lazy in the cold and refuse to clean these roads from time to time. ”

Lige thought about the words she heard in the library this afternoon, which aroused her curiosity about her biological mother again, and she held Granny Mu's hand and said, "Where is Granny Mu from?"

Granny Mu said happily, "I'm not from Zhaozhao Kingdom, I came to Yancheng by chance when I was young. ”
