On the seventh day of the seventh month of July, the Great Wei Beggar's Festival, this day is also the birthday of Fu Rongyue, the lady of the Marquis of Zhongsu!

Fu Rong came to Kyoto at the beginning of the month, and it was the day of the day, which was naturally very special.

Aunt Cheng's being raised by the Marquis of Zhongsu is already known to everyone in the aristocratic circle of Kyoto, and it is natural for her to handle Fu Rongyue's ceremony. From four days ago, the magnates in Kyoto have successively received invitations from the Marquis of Zhongsu, on the exquisite invitations, the hostess column is written Aunt Cheng's pseudonym Cheng Ruyi, which is equivalent to officially acknowledging Aunt Cheng's status in the Marquis of Zhongsu to the world, in front of the visitors, Aunt Cheng is no longer the abbreviation of the aunt, she is finally allowed to call her father's surname, becoming the justifiable Cheng.

As early as a few days ago, she arranged for the entire backyard of the Marquis of Zhongsu to move, and the items to be used in the ceremony were purchased, and the standards were all according to the treatment of Miss Yan, all of which were not exquisite, even more exquisite than those used by Fu Rongqin and Lu.

The Xiaoxiang Courtyard where Fu Rongyue lived was also deliberately dressed up, readjusted according to the style that the woman in the boudoir liked, and the lilac curtain hung down, adding a bit of mystery.

This made Fu Rongqin very uncomfortable.

Sister Fu Ronghui went to the cemetery and there was no news, but Fu Xingjian's appearance was only a little sad, and Cheng and the others didn't care about it, and they couldn't help but feel that it was really an eternal truth for people to go to tea and cool down. Bai is gone, and her status in the Fu family has plummeted, she is really afraid that one day even Fu Xingjian will no longer take her seriously, so she has to desperately show her empathy, hoping to maintain Fu Xingjian's favor.

But Fu Xingjian's attitude is a little confusing, she always feels that since entering July, there has always been a layer of dark clouds between Fu Xingjian and her, and the estrangement between father and daughter has become deeper and deeper.

Now that she saw Fu Rongyue getting such courtesy, and Fu Xingjian didn't show obvious opposition, how could she not be jealous?

However, no matter how jealous she was, Fu Rongqin had to put away her unhappiness, and got up early to accompany Cheng to greet the guests who came to participate in Fu Rongyue and the ceremony today.

Fu Rongyue is the new princess of Lingling, although she has not officially completed her marriage, but Emperor Shou's holy decree has been issued, and the wedding is a matter of time. Therefore, the invitation was delivered, although the time was rushed, but everyone gave face.

After the middle door of the Marquis of Zhongsu Mansion opened, there were guests coming to congratulate one after another, and before the official start of the ceremony, the number of famous people in Beijing basically came, and even the Meiguo Mansion who rarely had personal dealings with the magnates also came, and it was not the housekeeper Mei Kaiyuan, but Mei Xiangrong, who had just been promoted to prime minister, personally brought the eldest daughter Mei Yanshan and the second son Mei Qinggu to congratulate, except for the eldest son Mei Ruanyi who was not in the mansion, the Mei family was all there.

Another high-profile nature is the Pingning Hou Mansion, Nangong Yue, the head of the Pingning Hou Mansion, is in the Northwest Army all the year round, and the connections in Beijing all depend on the second son Nangong Ze, Nangong Ze is not good at power on weekdays, only loves wind and snow, and he also respects Fu Rongyue, and personally brought a heavy gift.

In addition to these two powerful figures, no other important person in Beijing was absent.

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military Qi brushed to come to the Zhongsu Marquis's Mansion, and it was the first time since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, after all, no daughter of any family had such a big face, so that the emperor could avoid a day for this.

But Fu Rongyue did it.

Emperor Shou announced that he would not go to court on the seventh day of the first month, and personally designated the old man in the palace, Mama An, to come to be Fu Rongyue and the tray of the ceremony, and personally issued a holy decree to let the only eldest princess Jingrui in the dynasty be the guest of honor and the ceremony.

With the support of the emperor, who would dare not come?

All of a sudden, the Marquis of Zhongsu Mansion can be described as very lively.

The front hall was full of people, and in the backyard, Fu Rongyue was picked up early, and after bathing and changing, Mei Lin dried her hair, so she could only wait in the room and the ceremony began.

However, it didn't take long for the first guest to come to Xiaoxiang Courtyard.

Mei Yanshan was led into Xiaoxiang Courtyard by the little girl, and when she pushed the door, she laughed: "Miss Yan of the Marquis of Zhongsu Mansion has a really big face, even my father has been invited." ”

"Sister Yan Shan!" As soon as Fu Rongyue heard her voice, she almost immediately stood up and greeted her: "Why is my sister here?

"You don't look at who I am, who my father is, who my brother is!" Mei Yanshan turned her head proudly, and smiled very strangely: "With that level of poison, my second brother can easily solve it, and it is a shame that you have been worried for so many days." Little girl, thank you so much that day, if it weren't for you, I might have been promised to Wei Mingyu's bastard! I don't have the courage of Ning Ping'an, the Mei family is in the capital, and I would never dare to refuse to marry. ”

Fu Rongyue pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister Yan Shan, you really like to joke." ”

With her understanding of Mei Yanshan, not to mention refusing to get married, even if she escaped marriage, Mei Yanshan also did it!

"Well, you've seen through it again. It's not that I don't dare to refuse marriage, it's just that my father is now in the court...... Forget it, don't say it, if you can solve it without blood, why do we have to work hard, don't you say?" Mei Yanshan also saw that she didn't believe it, and liked her straightforwardness, and unconsciously let go of herself.

Fu Rongyue nodded again and again, and pulled Mei Yanshan into the bedroom to speak.

The two didn't have time to chat a few words, so they listened to Mei Lin's announcement, and another guest arrived at Xiaoxiang Courtyard.

Mei Lin led people in, but the person Fu Rongyue didn't expect was Ning Ping'an.

"Ping'an, haven't you already gone to the Northwest Army?" Fu Rongyue held her hand, she couldn't help but be a little excited, a few days ago, she overheard Fu Xingjian talking to his subordinates about military affairs, and only then did she know that another army was going to the northwest, and she thought that Ning Ping'an had already followed.

Ning Ping'an shook his head with a smile: "I originally planned to go with the army, but my father said that someone had to be arranged to pick it up, so I had to wait a few more days." Fortunately, I didn't leave, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to come to your ceremony!"

"You go to such a far place alone, General Ning can rest assured?" Mei Yanshan interjected curiously.

Although she didn't recognize Ning Ping'an, but just now Fu Rongyue called out Ping'an, she guessed that the person in front of her was the girl who boldly refused to marry. Mei Yanshan's temperament has always been wild, and she has never had any friends in Kyoto, but when she heard about Ning Ping'an's matter, she immediately became a confidant, and couldn't help but step forward.

In front of Fu Rongyue, Ning Ping'an was not so restrained, and waved his hand: "What's not to worry about, I originally grew up in the northwest." If you want me to say that my father is also multi-hearted, even if I am alone, I can also get to the northwest. ”

"He's good for you, too. Fu Rongyue said with a smile: "You annoy him now, when you get to the army, you can't see him all year round, and most of you will miss him very much." ”

Mei Yanshan listened to it funny next to her: "You, like my father, are really a housekeeper." ”

Ning Ping'an covered his mouth and smiled, the corners of his eyes skimmed Mei Yanshan, hurriedly stopped smiling, and asked cautiously, "......Who is this?"

"This is the eldest lady of the Mei Guo Mansion, Sister Mei Shan. Fu Rongyue was busy introducing her.

Before Ning Ping'an could answer, Mei Yanshan pulled her over with a smile, and without saying a word, she stuffed three small bottles in the palm of her hand, and then said, "Don't be afraid, I don't eat people." My temper is like this, I will not despise those who are used to it, even if it is a person of three religions and nine ranks, and I will not turn a blind eye to those who are not used to it, even if it is a prince and nobleman. Hehe, your temper is on my part, I have made up your friend!, take it, this is my gift to you, the red bottle is the best healing medicine, the emperor has no use, stop bleeding and remove scars in one step. There is only one pill in the green bottle, I have studied it for a long time, after you eat it, ordinary poisons will have no effect on you, and within a year, you will be invulnerable. As for the black bottle...... Hey...... Hey hey ......"

"What are you laughing at?" Ning Ping'an didn't understand.

Fu Rongyue also looked at Mei Yanshan, with a little amusement in her eyes, it seemed that Mei Yanshan was about to have some bad idea.

Sure enough, I heard Mei Yanshan say: "You have to walk around the barracks, a girl is inconvenient, if you meet any bad guys, just wipe them, and you have to be arrested for any bad guys!"

Ning Ping'an looked at her dumbfounded, unable to say a word, but after thinking about it, she silently put the medicine bottle in her arms.

Seeing that she didn't dislike her, Mei Yanshan was even happier in her heart, and happily pulled her to sit down at the table, and asked about things in the Northwest Army, but put Fu Rongyue aside.

Fu Rongyue was no longer angry, listening to their chat, while waiting for someone to arrive.

The night before yesterday, she flew a pigeon and sent a letter to Bai Zhirou, I wonder if she will come after receiving the letter? She has an indescribable liking and envy for this woman in her heart, and she is looking forward to her coming, but she is worried that she is a person in the rivers and lakes, and her identity is so special, it will be difficult to explain when she comes.

Unexpectedly, Bai Zhirou thought of everything, when Mei Lin passed the news that a guest was visiting, the name of the report was the niece of Mu Yanhai, the first merchant in Kyoto. And Bai Zhirou is extremely smart, hiding her beautiful appearance, with a bunch of official ladies coming in together, it doesn't look so conspicuous, fortunately, Fu Rongyue is careful, and she found her figure in a bunch of bright girls. Fu Rongyue didn't dare to get too close, so as not to arouse the suspicion of others, so she only secretly pinched her palm, revealing a joyful smile.

Bai Zhirou smiled back and sat quietly beside her.

In fact, Fu Rongyue, who came to congratulate these young ladies, didn't know much, but she didn't know each other, and these young ladies also knew each other a lot.

The girls in Xiaoxiang Courtyard made a fuss for a while, and then saw Cheng come over with the girl, saying that the main hall was ready, and said the agenda of the ceremony again, so as not to make Fu Rongyue forget to make a joke and make the guests laugh.

Originally, according to the ritual, Fu Rongyue, as the concubine of the Marquis of Zhongsu, and the ceremony should be held in the temple. However, no one expected that so many people would come in advance, and the temple could not accommodate it at all, so they had to move the ceremony to the largest main hall of the Fu family.
