Chapter 269: Attending the Party
"Luo Tian, it turns out that you are here. "The Marquise came over with her personal maid and sat down opposite Luo Tian, "It's not good to sit like this, why don't you go out for a walk with those two young ladies?"www.biquge.info ”
"Good afternoon, Marquise. Luo Tian nodded to this virtuous lady, but she couldn't explain to her the inhumane treatment she had received recently, and she really couldn't speak...... I could only purse my mouth, "I like to meditate, too lively scenes are not suitable for me." ”
"Sure enough, like Su Yue, they both like quiet personalities, but my dear Xiao Tiantian, you still have to go to some aristocratic gatherings. The Marquise smiled and handed over a stack of business cards with a faint fragrance, "These implicit invitations are for you, take them, beautiful girl." ”
"Thank you. Luo Tian took it and looked at it, and found that these were the business cards of some aristocratic sons, and the back of the business cards were written in either juanxiu or vigorous words, such as "so-and-so, waiting at home at a certain day and a certain time", and did not see any words of invitation, so he looked at the marquise with puzzled eyes.
"It's said that this is an implicit invitation. The Marquise smiled and explained, "This is a southwestern province, which is different from the customs of Kyoto, and if it is not a very formal ball, there will be no special invitations." Young people get together casually, often with an invitation, and then write on the back of the so-and-so son, young lady, this is generally the initiator of the ball, and waiting at home at a certain day and time is actually to explain the time and place. ”
"Very interesting customs. Luo Tian shook his head, his condition was good and bad, it was better to show up less or less, and his mouth was perfunctory, "Since it's not official, then I refuse." ”
"That's a pity, speaking of which, since the death of my husband, there haven't been so many people invited to the door!" the Marquise sighed as if reminiscing, and thought for a while, "Actually, Xiaotian, it's not impossible for you to refuse, but have you thought about it? If you refuse to go to the ball, those sons who secretly love you will definitely come here to see you-don't think that the noble sons are easy to deal with, I watched them grow up, a group of little slippery heads, and they have long been famous." ”
"In that case......," replied Luo Tian, "I am pretending to be sick." ”
"Look at you, these sons and brothers won't eat you, after all, you are the future highness of the Qin Dynasty, no one dares to touch you, they invite you more to admire your face and reputation, a kind of ......"
"A kind of blind worship and star-chasing psychology?"
I've seen a lot of this, Luo Tian didn't think about it and just said, with Xia Guo's experience as a backing, I've seen all this crazy thing.
"Worship the stars?!" the Marquise was slightly stunned, a little puzzled.
Luo Tian could only explain: "Well, I just want some people to like the stars in the sky, and they have to stare at it every night, and if they don't look at ......it, they will feel uncomfortable."
"Hehe, this analogy is also appropriate!" the marquise smiled indifferently, "Actually, I have carefully selected these for you, and the business cards handed over to you are some invitations, on the one hand, the strength of the family is relatively strong, and on the other hand, there are young ladies with very good looks and character in the family, noble sons can not socialize, but noble ladies with similar identities should not have too many scruples, I know your experience, I'm afraid there are few intimate friends in Kyoto, right?"
Because of Luo Tian's mother, the Marquise is completely thinking about the problem from Luo Tian's point of view, thinking more long-term," Xiaotian, don't look at your fate, but those noble ladies in Kyoto are not fuel-efficient lamps, the queen's position has been empty for so many years, and the people who are staring at it are not one or two, but they will not accept their fate so easily, I am afraid that a lot of conspiracies and tricks have been prepared, many people are waiting for you to return to Beijing, and you will make a stumbling block to see jokes, and there is an advantage to socializing with some noble ladies, that is, you can expand your connections, after all, the power of the big family is intricate, and the nobles of the southwest province, relatives and friends have influence in Kyoto. ”
When he heard that there were other noble ladies at the party, Luo Tian's mind was much more lively, and what he said was that even if he participated in the party, he could not be surrounded by those stinky men, but got together with the aristocratic ladies who participated, hehe, in this way, it would be good to think about it, surrounded by warblers and swallows, and his own identity as a guarantee, even if he rubbed oil and flirted, no one should care.
"What Madame said is that it seems that it is indeed not good to pretend to be sick......"
"Yo, what kind of person is this! Lin Yueru walked over holding Xiao Yao's hand, and happened to hear Luo Tian's words, so she immediately replied sarcastically.
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess!" the Marquise leaned over slightly, and Lin Yueru immediately regained her gentle smile, "Madame, good afternoon." ”
Speaking of which, it's also strange that people and people always feel so magical, don't look at Lin Yueru and Luo Tian are very incompatible, as if they are on the same page, but they are impressed by the gentle and amiable marquise, inexplicably trusting and cordial.
"Your Highness, a young lady as beautiful as the flowers, come and sit down. The Marquise had a gentle smile on her face, "Did you have a good time?"
"It's good! It's just a small place, and you can't ride a horse. Lin Yueru nodded and replied, "I haven't ridden a horse for several days. ”
"It's not easy to ride a horse! just let Luo Tian take you to the party. Let me take a look, there should be a few garden parties recently. The Marquise picked among a large number of business cards, and found a suitable one after flipping through a few, "Your Highness, you see that this party held on the lakeside is very good, not only can you ride horses, but you can also raft on the lake, with your appearance, there must be many good young men rushing to help you row!"
"Oh, yes! I think attending a party and relaxing properly will be very helpful to my injury!" Xiao Yao's eyes lit up, but the picture in his mind was very similar to what Luo Tian thought just now.
"Yes, yes, let's go together!"
"Oh, I've heard that at such gatherings, the young lady is required to wear a long skirt, and to ride a horse with a lady's side saddle, and not to walk at twice as fast as a foot. ”
Seeing the excited expression on a woman's face that had just bloomed, Luo Tian immediately poured cold water. The cold water really had an effect, and the excited expression on Lin Yueru's face cooled down in an instant, and the little fox on the side covered his mouth and smiled.
"What a boring party. Lin Yueru muttered, "I'm not allowed to shoot hunting, and I'm not allowed to go out to play." ”
"Your Royal Highness Princess, it's not that I don't allow it, it's all the rules of the party. And to Lin Yueru's complaining gaze, Luo Tian raised his head provocatively and said, "I think it's boring, you can not go!"
"Think beautiful!?" Lin Yueru retorted confidently, "Isn't it just wearing a skirt?
"Well said, let's make such a happy decision!" Luo Tian clapped his palms, "I'm looking forward to it!"
