Jingbei Palace's lanterns are colorful, drums are noisy, and it is very lively, this year is the 55th birthday of Princess Jingbei, which is naturally not comparable to the ordinary small birthday.

In front of the palace, the cars that came to celebrate the birthday were discharged several streets. Li Xiaonuan and the princess's car moved forward slowly, two streets, walked for nearly two quarters of an hour, the car entered the gate of Jingbei Palace, the two mothers-in-law ran out with sweat on their foreheads, led the car directly into the second gate, crossed the second gate, and stopped not far from the flower hall, Xia He and Zhuqing had already gotten out of the car, and hurriedly followed from behind, helping the princess and Li Xiaonuan to get out of the car, the mother-in-law respectfully bent her knees to accompany the salute, and said kind words with a smile on her face:

"Give the princess a salute, give a salute to the young lady, our princess and lady can't come out in person because they are accompanied by several ancestors, and I ask the princess and the young lady to forgive me."

"Your princess and lady are polite, we all come and go often, where do you want her to greet you."

Princess Runan talked to her mother-in-law kindly, and walked to the flower hall not far away with Li Xiaonuan.

Because of the large number of people, the birthday banquet of the princess of Jingbei changed the convention, the men were set up in the wide garden, and the juggling tables such as the stage and the hundred operas were set up, and the female dependents were set up in the flower hall in the second gate, connecting the warm pavilion, Xuan, pavilion and other places around the flower hall.

In the open space in front of the flower hall, a smaller stage was also set up, and two small solke-call horns were babbling on the stage, happily singing auspicious birthday greetings.

Li Xiaonuan helped the princess, just after the stage, Princess Jingbei and her daughter-in-law Mrs. Chen hurriedly greeted her, Princess Jingbei smiled heartily, went down the steps, took Princess Runan's hand, and was affectionate and polite, Mrs. Chen smiled and stood beside her mother-in-law, looked at Li Xiaonuan quickly, then withdrew her gaze and paid attention to her mother-in-law.

Li Xiaonuan stepped forward to greet Princess Jingbei, said auspicious words to congratulate her birthday, and bent her knees to greet Mrs. Chen, Mrs. Chen hurriedly bent her knees to return the salute, and said politely:

"The county lord is gracious."

Princess Jingbei let the two of them enter the flower hall, the flower hall is extremely large, and in the first place on the east side, the eldest princess, the eldest princess of Fuqing, Mrs. Tang Cheng, Mrs. Yan Chengxiang and several old ladies are sitting in one place talking and laughing.

Princess Jingbei led the two of them over, everyone greeted each other lively, and let Princess Runan sit, Li Xiaonuan stood behind Princess Runan, took the tea held by the little girl, and served it.

Not far away, Princess Xin and her side concubine Qian were talking and laughing with several ladies and misses, Li Xiaonuan's eyes swept through the flower hall, looking for Princess Cheng, today she is half the master.

Princess Cheng is not in the flower hall, Li Xiaonuan is slightly surprised in her heart, Princess Jingbei only has a son and a daughter, her son Yang Yuanfeng is now in office on Liangzhejiang Road, and her daughter Princess Cheng happens to be in the capital this year, but she is not in the flower hall at this time? !

Li Xiaonuan smiled, stood with low eyebrows and lowered hands while thinking, Princess Xin turned her head and gently gestured to the side concubine Qian, the two walked over with a smile, Princess Xin walked next to Princess Runan, first greeted the group, and bent her knees slightly to Princess Runan, and said with a smile:

"The princess can't always be so restrained by the princess, so let her talk to us?"

Qian Shi, the concubine of King Xin, leaned over to Li Xiaonuan with a smile on her face, stretched out her hand to hold her arm, and whispered with a smile:

"The princess will talk to us."

Li Xiaonuan only smiled and said nothing, Princess Runan turned her head to look at Li Xiaonuan, and Princess Hexin sighed with a smile on her face:

"Where is to detain her, she is such a shy person, in the future, whenever you talk and joke, call her, and take her to be more cheerful."

Princess Xin agreed with a smile, and the Qian family held Li Xiaonuan affectionately, dragging her to a group of ladies and ladies next to her.

Li Xiaonuan paused, bent his knees and Princess Runan retreated, and then dragged with the Qian family, walked to the side, just took two steps, the curtain of the flower hall was lifted, and Princess Cheng took her eldest daughter Zhou Wanruo, and followed the mother-in-law into the flower hall.

King Xin's eyes were full of smiles, and he hurriedly greeted him with a bow on his knees, and greeted him affectionately.

"Sister-in-law just came? Everyone is almost here, but I'm afraid that the princess will be in a hurry. ”

Princess Cheng's eyes were gloomy, with a slight smile on her face, and she didn't entangle with Princess Xin, she only bent her knees slightly and returned the salute, nodded her head as a greeting, and didn't stop at her feet, she just walked straight to Princess Jingbei inside, Zhou Wanruo lowered her eyes, had a cold face, followed her mother, and did not greet Princess Xin and others, and followed her mother straight over.

Qian was next to Li Xiaonuan, looking at Princess Cheng's mother and daughter with puzzled eyes, Li Xiaonuan didn't care if Princess Cheng didn't return the salute, she only smiled and bent her knees and bowed, and watched the two go to Princess Jingbei.

Princess Xin snorted, turned around, and greeted Li Xiaonuan with a smile,

"This capital, you are a newcomer, I'll take you around, get to know some people, come,"

Princess Xin beckoned to Li Xiaonuan, turned to the hexagonal window in the west, and introduced with a shrewd middle-aged **** about forty years old, dressed in a dark red silk dress, with a face full of exposure, and introduced with a smile:

"This is the wife of Dai Yuanqing, Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu."

Li Xiaonuan bent her knees slightly, Mrs. Lu hurriedly stood up, and returned the salute with a smile on her face.

"The county lord is polite, I really don't dare to be, I have long heard that the county lord has a good life and a better bearing, it is really worthy of the name!"

Li Xiaonuan smiled shyly, as if she didn't know what to say, Princess Xin looked at her, pointed to the little girl standing beside Mrs. Lu and saluting together, and introduced with a smile:

"This is Miss Dai San, fifteen years old this year, one year younger than you, look at it, I love her elegant and quiet, and it's no wonder that her sister is deeply favored by King Jing, so she rushes to this elegance, there is no one who doesn't love it!"

Li Xiaonuan smiled and looked at Miss Dai San, who was tender and demure like a hibiscus out of the water, and said gently:

"It's hard to take your eyes off."

Miss Dai San's eyes were shining, she moved to her mother's side with her toes, smiling shyly, Princess Xin looked at Miss Dai San with a smile in her eyes, moved a few steps to the side, and gestured to Li Xiaonuan with a smile.

"This is the Duchess of Yao Guo."

Princess Xin pointed to the old lady who was about fifty years old and said, Duchess Yao Guo was sitting upright, staring at Princess Cheng in the distance anxiously and longingly, she didn't hear Princess Xin's words at all, and she didn't notice Princess Xin and Li Xiaonuan who were already standing beside her, King Xin followed her gaze and looked at Princess Cheng in the distance, raised her voice and shouted:

"Madame!"

Duchess Yao Guo was still staring at Princess Cheng intently, but she still didn't hear Princess Xin's words, Miss Yao Si, who was standing next to Duchess Yao Guo and was also anxiously looking at Princess Cheng, came to her senses first, shook her mother busily, and reminded in a low voice anxiously:

"Mother, Princess Xin and ...... I'm talking to you!"

Duchess Yao Guo came to her senses all of a sudden, stood up violently, straightened her clothes in a panic, bent her knees, and confessed incoherently.

"I ...... Seeing Princess Cheng...... Distracted, old, confused, the princess forgives her sins...... The princess looks really good, this is? I don't know ......."

Li Xiaonuan's heart was full of doubts, this eldest daughter of the Yao Guogong family once discussed marriage with Cheng Ke, and later, there was a matter of Cheng Wang Qiang wanting to marry Xu Shengrong, what was she staring at Princess Cheng for? The eldest daughter of her family has already been married, what else can she do?

"This is the Lord of Anfu, the princess of Runan Palace."

Princess Xin didn't have any displeasure on her face, and introduced Li Xiaonuan warmly, Duchess Yao Guo had calmed down, looked at Li Xiaonuan carefully, and bent her knees with a smile on her face.

"I have long heard that the princess is born well and has a better bearing, but when I saw it, I knew that this all-round bearing can only be possessed by the county lord."

Li Xiaonuan smiled gently, bent her knees and returned the salute, Miss Yao Si looked at Li Xiaonuan curiously, and as her mother saw the salute, Duchess Yao Guo pulled Miss Yao Si and introduced:

"This is my daughter, who is only fifteen years old after the New Year, and her daughter is the meat of her mother's heart!"

Li Xiaonuan raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at Duchess Yao Guo in surprise, suddenly realized in her heart, and hurriedly turned her head to look at Princess Xin, Princess Xin's eyes were full of happy smiles, and immediately agreed:

"Not really! Which family's daughter is not the mother's heart?! In the future, you have to choose a good family to marry, if the heart is made of mud on the soles of other people's feet, this mother's heart will be broken!"

Duchess Yao Guo's face was pale, her smile was reluctant, and she turned her head to look at Princess Cheng again. Princess Xin pursed her lips and smiled, pulled Li Xiaonuan to take a few steps forward, and then introduced an old lady next to her:

"This is the wife of Qian Jiyuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Mrs. Lin, who is the mother of the Qian family."

Princess Xin turned her head to look at Concubine Qian, Li Xiaonuan smiled and greeted Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin looked extremely gentle, and returned the salute with a gentle smile, Princess Xin seemed to be smiling happily, squinted her eyes slightly, and beckoned to a middle-aged **** standing at the edge of the crowd at the door of the flower hall, turned her head to look at Li Xiaonuan, and said with a smile:

"I'll introduce someone, you must know each other!"

Li Xiaonuan turned his head to look at the middle-aged **** who was hurrying over with broken steps, **** looked like he was about thirty years old, his body looks very good, willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, thin white skin, between the flow of eye waves, the style is revealed, the cheeks are slightly rouge, festive but not abrupt, wearing an indigo dress, followed by a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who looks very similar to ****, but is more tender and good-looking.

Ran to Li Xiaonuan and Princess Xin, slightly nervously piled up with a smile on her face, respectfully and unusually bent her knees deeply, the little girl also followed behind the ****, bent her knees to see the salute, Princess Xin lowered her eyes, looked down at the **** and the little girl who bent her knees deeply, and introduced with a smile:

"This is the wife of the new imperial historian Zou Yingnian, Tang, this is the second lady of the Zou family, speaking ......"

Three women in one play, alas, only women and villains are difficult to raise, and the old sage also said that women and children are the most difficult to get, which is really the case.
