Chapter 227: The hall is-for-tat

After the ladies and sons take a nap, the eldest princess also set up a snack in the hall for the participants to chat and talk, men and women are divided into two halls, the female guests are in the small flower hall, all the way, the snow under the corridor has been swept away, from time to time to see the red plum from behind the eaves poking out the delicate pink stamens, pick out a touch of bright color, very lovely.

In the eldest princess's house, plum blossoms can be seen everywhere, and red plums are the mainstay.

Mo Xuetong went to the flower hall under the guidance of Yahuan, walked in, the floor was covered with gorgeous carpets, the top of the head was painted with exquisite paintings, and some hanging ornaments were hung, and the whole hall was decorated with gorgeous and bright, octagonal palace lamps, pastel bottles, and white jade double-titled bulging bottles...... The tables and chairs of the red sandalwood forest are arranged in two compartments, in a circle, and there is a fire in the middle of it, and the form of gossip and tea chatting is upright.

The eldest princess sat on it with a smile, with the fifth princess sitting on one side, Ling Fengyan sitting on the other, and the rest of the ladies from the provinces sitting at will.

"Miss Mo San, come and sit here. Seeing Mo Xuetong come in, Ling Fengyan smiled and pointed to the chair next to him and said politely.

Mo Xue Tong really didn't want to sit in that position, just close to the eldest princess, Fang Cai and Ling Fengyan had another fight, which was really eye-catching, but people greeted her so warmly, if she didn't come forward, she would be a little cunning, so she walked over with a smile and sat down after seeing the salute.

"Miss Mo San is late, isn't it being dragged by someone, and I didn't see Miss Mo San when I was taking a nap, did you go to chat with someone?"

"Oh, Miss Mo San didn't sleep just now, who did you meet, talking so speculatively?" Ling Fengyan also seemed to be interested in turning his head and asked.

Mo Xue's eyes were smart, and she pinched the handkerchief and seemed to be a little embarrassed and said: "Just because I was greedy for the scenery in the eldest princess's mansion, I couldn't find the way to turn around, and I was not very sleepy, so I walked casually. ”

As soon as she said this, the face of the fifth princess, who had been paying attention to Mo Xuetong, looked a little better.

"Miss Mo San, who are you talking to in the pavilion just now, I didn't see it clearly from a distance, I only knew that it was a son in white, looking over, his posture was very chic. Yan Yue smiled coquettishly, with a dumbness between her eyebrows, and covered her mouth with a handkerchief as if she had noticed that she had missed her mouth.

Everyone's eyes fell on Mo Xuetong at once.

There are two people who are extremely chic in white clothes today, except for Bai Yihao and Feng Juexuan, I really can't find anyone else.

The eyes of the five princesses on the side had turned stronger, but Ling Fengyan smiled more and more gently.

"It turns out that Miss Mo San didn't sleep because she was tripped by the meridian, Bai Gongzi is elegant, and when she meets Miss Mo San in this plum forest, she naturally wants to gossip a few words. Ling Fengyan's eyes flickered, and he chuckled, as if he was explaining to Mo Xuetong.

Who doesn't know that the King of Chu is the husband chosen by the queen for Ling Fengyan, but that one doesn't seem to have too much affection for this famous Miss Ling Er in the capital, and even Fang Cai is faint at the banquet;

No matter who these two people are chatting with Mo Xue Tong in the pavilion, Mo Xue Tong will have a grudge against these two noble girls!

"But it was His Royal Highness the King of Chu, His Royal Highness the King of Chu asked me about a few young ladies, so I ......" Mo Xuetong said a little shyly, rubbing his hand holding the handkerchief, with a humble smile on his face.

The matter of the draft is imminent, and all the daughters of all families know about it, and they also know that there will inevitably be a few princesses, side concubines, and the king of Chu who they fancy in this seat, so they stop people from asking clearly, but this kind of thing always hinders the reputation of several young ladies who are asked, and Mo Xuetong does not mention it to save face for everyone, and it is not a fool of everyone.

Thinking that His Royal Highness the King of Chu asked a few young ladies, a few of the people present were warm in their hearts, but they also knew that these words could not be asked, so they only thought shyly and timidly, when His Royal Highness the King of Chu was facing each other across the river, was he affectionate to himself.

"It turned out to be His Royal Highness the King of Chu, I didn't expect His Royal Highness the King of Chu to ask Miss Mo San about this, I heard that although His Royal Highness the King of Chu is polite, he doesn't like to say anything more to Miss Boudoir, Miss Mo San thinks it's different. You Yue'e said with a smile, and specially cited a few examples to show that although His Royal Highness the King of Chu is gentle and elegant, it is not something that anyone can talk to.

You Yue'e sneered in her heart, since the queen intends to marry Ling Fengyan into the Chu Palace, Ling Fengyan must be prepared in her heart, Ling Fengyan is still here, but Mo Xuetong is talking to the King of Chu on the side, isn't this a grudge with Ling Fengyan? Ling Fengyan is not as good as Ling Rui'er, and the identity of the future princess of Chu is enough for her to have the identity of the fifth princess.

The more You Yue'e said here, the more difficult it became that the faces of several young ladies who had thoughts about the King of Chu became, and they looked at Mo Xuetong almost with jealousy, although Ling Fengyan who was sitting on the side had no interface, the more his face looked like a smile or a smile, and he couldn't see joy or anger.

"Miss Mo San is naturally outstanding, not only does Bai Gongzi look at her highly, and she is also valued by His Royal Highness the King of Chu. Sitting next to the fifth princess was Wang Xiuxiu, who looked at Mo Xuetong gently and smiled kindly at her, and then said.

Although the fifth princess did not speak, she stared at Mo Xue Tong coldly.

This sounds like praise, but it is actually more suspicious, Mo Xuetong doesn't know what this seemingly friendly Wang Xiuxiu means, but she also knows that she must not be as amiable as she sees on the surface, the corners of her mouth are slightly curved, revealing a faint smile.

Picking up the tea that Yahuan had just brewed, her smile was a little illusory in the fragrance of tea, as if she was looking at the world outside the clouds, and her beautiful eyes were blurred and unfathomable, and she blew a mouthful of water vapor on it, and said with a smile: "The King of Chu just asked me about Miss You, I only said that I came to the capital, and I was guarding filial piety, and I didn't know anything when I was young, so the King of Chu let me go." ”

"Did the King of Chu ask me?" You Yue'e was stunned, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, she has always regarded herself very highly, and she doesn't feel that she is a few points worse than Ling Fengyan, except for the descendants of the four major dukes, the Dingguo Mansion is not a few points higher than the other mansions, if she can enter the Chu Wangfu, she will not be lower than Ling Fengyan's status.

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and his face was immediately a little embarrassed.

Ling Fengyan, who was sitting on the side, had a slightly darker face, glanced at You Yue'e, and the smile on his lips was cold.

Mo Xuetong's words naturally led Feng Juexuan's direction to You Yue'e, but it also pointed out that he was still keeping filial piety, and he was young, how could the King of Chu fall in love with a little girl who had not grown up, the draft was just around the corner, and it was impossible for him to take his turn.

Everyone suddenly raised it, only to find that Mo Xue's pupils were childish, and there was still a bit of childishness in her innocent eyes, and she clearly didn't understand anything, and she just came from Cloud City, I'm afraid she didn't even figure out what the situation was!

The previous dynasty decided on the harem, and it seemed that the position of the concubine of the king of Chu was going to be twists and turns, no wonder You Yue'e paid so much attention to the king of Chu, and the eyes of many young ladies lit up, does this mean that the battle between the two princes has begun.

You Yue'e was speechless, seeing that more and more eyes fell on herself and Ling Fengyan, implying a contrast, and said unwillingly: "I thought that the King of Chu put so many young ladies from the family and didn't ask, but when he asked Miss Mo San, it must be different from Miss Mo San." ”

"I thought that the King of Chu asked me about Miss You when he saw that I was young," Mo Xue raised his eyes, innocent and childish, and said in surprise, "Besides, I met His Royal Highness King Xuan later, and I only chatted with them a little bit." ”

Mo Xuetong cleverly made them understand that not only Feng Jue Xuan was there at that time, but even Feng Jue was also there.

His Royal Highness King Xuan, who is unpretentiously handsome, everyone still has a little jealousy in their hearts, knowing that he was also there at the time, a large part of the young ladies showed sympathetic glances at Mo Xuetong, and when they met that person, if they didn't pay attention and annoyed that person, it didn't matter whose daughter you were.

Ling Fengyan's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he picked up the tea in his hand and took a sip, unable to see what he was thinking.

The expression on the face of the fifth princess was easy to guess, and she only glanced at Mo Xuetong hatefully, but she didn't pursue anything anymore.

You Yue'e didn't dare to say anything, not that Feng Jueran was so powerful, just because this person was a ruthless person, if he didn't know that he was provoked in the words and annoyed him, it was possible to rush in at this time, don't be ruined by him at that time, and have to enter the Xuan Palace, and he doesn't even have a name.

I heard that there was a young lady in his house, because he was annoyed with him, he took the middle coat and displayed it outside, so that the woman could only enter the palace with a small sedan chair, but she didn't even have a concubine.

Everyone's topic consciously turned to other aspects, and the eldest princess who was sitting in the first place glanced at Mo Xuetong meaningfully, quite a little praised.

Because of this episode, Mo Xuetong was a little innocent in her cleverness, and there was the previous display of Mo Xuetong's piano and dance skills, some young ladies had a good impression of Mo Xuetong, but a few chatted with her with kindness, and the atmosphere of the tea party became warm for a while.

That Wang Xiuxiu had a few well-intentioned parents who wanted to pull Mo Xuetong, but she quietly pushed back, after today's appearance, she is no longer Miss Mo San who is talentless and immoral in the eyes of everyone, and she is not afraid of what others say behind her back, these people, one by one, for their own purposes, have to set off a three-foot wave without wind, if she repeatedly retreats and shows goodwill, it will only make them feel weak and bullied.

Besides, today's matter, anyone with a discerning eye knows that You Yue'e is deliberately provoking trouble, although Wang Xiuxiu's words are lovely, only she knows what the metaphor is, and she doesn't want to get involved in those complicated things with these too complicated people, Wang Xiuxiu may be more difficult to deal with than Ling Fengyan.
