Chapter 6 is full of red and purple and fragrant flowers

King Qingping, the younger brother of the current saint, is humble and loyal, and has won the favor of the saint. He is also equally friendly with each prince, that is, he does not kiss any one, nor is he far away, so even if the crown prince and King Liang are secretly at odds, they all respect and get close to this imperial uncle.

People from both factions also befriended him.

On the day of the flower party, there was a scene that was never seen in other homes: the family members of the officials of the two opposing parties actually gathered together and talked happily.

Mrs. Zhuang and her daughters sat in a large car decorated with Xianghe cloud patterns in the Houfu, escorted by maidservants and escorts to the Qingping Palace, and before they got off the car, they saw a row of gorgeous cars parked in front of the Qingping Palace, and a string of horses with brocade carved saddles tied to the horse pole on the other side.

In the convoy, there are cars decorated with silver lion patterns in the flags of the Dongfang family of Dingguo Gong, and there are also cars of the Jihou family embroidered with flying bird patterns on the curtains. Then they knew that the two families that were politically opposed to each other had women or young men coming.

Mrs. Zhuang and her daughters got out of the car, and a decent mother-in-law welcomed them into the door. Entering the gate, there was already a sturdy mother-in-law waiting with a small donkey cart with a green cover.

The green cover and the pillars of the car are wrapped with green vines, stretching out palm-sized heart-shaped green leaves, and small red or yellow flowers bloom between the green leaves, which looks very elegant.

After taking the Qinggai car and walking a cup of tea, I arrived at the Hanging Flower Gate, which was the inner house of the Qingping Palace.

As soon as Mrs. Zhuang and her daughters got off the car in the weeping flower gate, a woman with a face like a full moon, long eyebrows and almond eyes, a straight nose and red lips walked over quickly.

Wei Wan saw that she was holding a high bun on her head, with a big red gold phoenix hairpin inserted on it; light yellow Luo bandeau with vermilion mud and gold collared coat, half revealing snow-white and full breasts; The view is gorgeous and luxurious, gentle and amiable.

The lady walked closer and said with a smile: "Yun Ji, you are getting more and more shelf-like, everyone else has arrived early, and you are so late." ”

Mrs. Zhuang smiled and saluted: "You have a lot of princesses, so forgive the little woman and forgive the little woman for not being guilty." ”

The noble lady smiled and shamed her: "I have four daughters, and I still call myself a little woman, and you dare to say it." ”

In addition to Wei Wan, the other three daughters of the Zhuang family all recognized the noblewoman. Rui Ying reminded Wei Wan in a low voice: "This is Princess Qingping, and she is the best friend of her mother. Then he bowed. Wei Wan also followed suit: "The princess is good." ”

Princess Qingping smiled: "Girls don't have to be polite. A pair of apricot eyes slipped away from the other three girls and stopped on Wei Huan's body, and only after a while did she say: "Yun Ji, you are cunning, when you were young, you had to be the best everywhere, and now that you are old, you can't compare to others, and you took this fairy-like daughter back to show off, is it Cheng Xinyan?" ”

Mrs. Zhuang smiled proudly: "That's, who let the princess have two fairy-like daughters who are eyeing me?" How? Now I have two eldest daughters! ”

Princess Qingping smiled: "You little thing! He took Wei Huan's hand again, pulled off the jade hairpin on his head and put it in Wei Wan's hand, and said with a smile: "When we met for the first time, I didn't have any preparations." This hairpin is not a rare thing, so wear it and play with it. ”

Wei Wan saw that the hairpin was green all over, shining with soft light, knowing that it was precious, she didn't dare to take it, and secretly glanced at Mrs. Zhuang, and saw Mrs. Zhuang's approving eyes, so she took it generously and said with a smile: "Thank you for the princess's reward." ”

Princess Qingping said to Rui Ying and the others: "Don't worry, the three of you will each have a reward later." ”

The three girls smiled and thanked them.

Mrs. Zhuang said again: "I heard that the county lord of Zhaohua was a little unwell some time ago, but is it okay?" ”

Princess Qingping took Mrs. Zhuang's hand and walked in, and said with a smile: "It's good." I don't go to the Big Buddha Temple today and wish to go, I can't come back, only Wanhua is there. He called the mother-in-law who followed: "Take the ladies of Jinghou Mansion to the back garden and play with the county lord." ”

Wei Wan and the sisters said goodbye to Mrs. Zhuang and the princess, and were taken by the mother-in-law to the back garden.

The peony flowers of Qingping Wangfu are famous in Beijing. Along the way, I saw all kinds of peonies competing for fresh and beautiful, and they were prosperous and lively.

Wei Wan saw that there were some large jade flower pots in the garden, and the plants in the flower pots were all tall and covered with silk cloth canopies, and I didn't know what kind of flowers they were, so golden.

But Wan was puzzled, so she heard someone whisper in her ear: "Those are some uncommon famous peonies, and they will only be lifted to enjoy the silk canopy when they are officially appreciating." ”

Wei Wan rolled her eyes, but she was Yiqi who never liked to talk. Weiwan smiled gratefully at her.

Yiqi blushed and whispered, "Sister...... Did I say the wrong thing? ”

Weiwan took her hand and soothed, "How come? I want to thank my sister for telling me this. ”

As he spoke, he saw a large cluster of peony flowers surrounding an octagonal pavilion from a distance, and several young women were sitting in it, all of them were freshly dressed and cloudy, and their appearance was as beautiful as a flower, and they looked like a gathering of flower fairies.

As soon as the mother-in-law led the four sisters to the pavilion, before they could speak, a beauty in red said, "You go." ”

The mother-in-law bowed silently and withdrew.

The beauty in red walked in front of Wei Wan in a few steps, looking Wei Wan up and down, her eyes were frank and bold.

Weiwan made her feel uncomfortable.

The beauty suddenly said: "You must be the only lady of the Jinghou Mansion Zhuang!" ”

Wei Wan gave a salute and said with a smile: "Yes." Dare to ask who the lady is? ”

The beauty raised her chin arrogantly and said, "I am the Lord of Wanhua." ”

This is the county lord of Wanhua who Dongfang Yi wants to make a family affair. Wei Wan couldn't help but look at her carefully.

The lord of Wanhua is sixteen or seven years old, and he is like Princess Qingping. The eyebrows are like distant mountains, and the eyes are like stars. The face is bright without grease, and the red lips are not painted but vermilion. combed the charming bun, and inserted a jasper phoenix hairpin obliquely, and the phoenix held a long string of beads in her mouth and hung straight to her shoulders, swaying her snow-white neck; Wearing a topless red transparent gauze shirt, a vermilion mud gold bandeau and a vermilion gold Luo skirt, the hem of the skirt and coat dragged long behind him. The red and bright are full of confidence and aura.

is really glamorous and extraordinary, not to mention family background, just this appearance and Dongfang Yi are also a talented woman.

Wei Wan's heart was sour, she smiled kindly, and said again: "I don't know if it's the county lord, but Wei Wan is rude." ”

The county lord of Wanhua said arrogantly: "No need to be polite, you come in and sit with me." The tone was as if he was angry with someone.

The four sisters walked into the pavilion. The girls who followed the waiting women found an unobtrusive place to wait.

The three women sitting next to the large round table of green jade in the pavilion stood up.

The county lord of Wanhua introduced them one by one.

With a small long face, willow eyebrows and fine eyes, combing a fallen horse bun, wearing a golden step, wearing a goose yellow gauze, a half-foot-wide green lotus short shirt embroidered on the collar and sleeves, and a blue water and blue Luo skirt on the slender waist is Huang Yueyao, the only daughter of Ningbo Mansion. Yueyao Niangzi had a sweet smile on her face when she greeted Wei Huan, and this smile has not changed since then.

The girl with a goose egg face, distant mountain eyebrows, black and white big apricot eyes, wearing a willow green shirt and skirt, and a small and delicate figure is Shen Liuniang from Jihou Mansion. Shen Liuniang's expression was too serious, but she also had a dignified and steady demeanor.

What attracted Weihuan's attention was a fifteen or six-year-old girl who was tall, with shaved shoulders and a thin waist, melon seed face, thick eyebrows and sideburns, big eyes like cold stars, combing fairy buns, inserting four butterflies and wearing flowers and golden hairpins, and wearing tender green gauze shirts. I don't know why, but Wei Wan thinks this woman is so familiar. When Weihuan looked at her, she also looked at Weihuan, and other people's eyes were curious, but she was cold, with a critical look like identification.

The county lord of Wanhua introduced to Wei Huan: "This is the Biyun lady of the Dongfang family of the Dingguo Mansion. ”

Ding Guogong, Dongfang Jia, isn't Dongfang Yi's sister? No wonder she felt a little familiar, and after a closer look, there was something similar to Dongfang Yi between her eyebrows and eyes...... I don't know if Dongfang Yi is here?

Weiwan looked at others, and others were also looking at her.

The women saw that Weihuan's face was like a peony, her body was like a willow, her lips were not curled and she smiled, and her phoenix eyes were affectionate even though she looked at them. The flying fairy bun is towering, with finches and blue jade swaying, tulip embroidered skirts translucent, and red dresses jealously killing pomegranate flowers, which are simply beautiful. And all sorts of thoughts came to my heart.

Shen Liuniang exclaimed with a serious expression: "The lady is so beautiful...... I don't know what books I read? ”

Wei Wan didn't know what she meant, so she said modestly: "It's just to recognize some words, how dare you read any books." ”

Shen Liuniang said with regret on her face: "It's a pity, it's a pity." You must know that there is poetry and books in your belly. With the appearance of a lady, if you read some books to nourish your temperament, then the lady must be the first lady in Beijing. ”

When Han Xiao heard this, he pulled Wei Wan's sleeves, blinked innocently and said with big eyes: "Sister Fairy, Sister Shen said that Sister Fairy doesn't read as much as Sister Shen, and Sister Fairy is not as beautiful as Sister Shen?" ”

This question is so that everyone can't answer, if it is, it is obviously unrealistic, if it is not, Shen Liuniang seems to really mean that.

Huang Yueyao just wanted to explain, but when she saw that it was Han Xiao, who was wearing a fan short, a smoky violet skirt, and a girl's hairstyle, thinking that she was just a concubine in Houfu, and it was not worth her wasting her tongue to perfunctory, so she looked away disdainfully.
