The outer courtyard of Yongningbo's house.

Sons like Yongning Bofu have had their own unique education methods since they were young, not to mention that they have their own fixed circle of friends.

Today's Yongningbo Mansion can be described as shining.

Several princes came together, adding a lot of color to this flower-viewing feast.

The sons and daughters are divided into two groups with the eldest prince and the second prince, and the other group is a circle of its own and ignores idle things.

The eldest prince Yin Hengcheng glanced at the second prince Yin Hengtai, took a glass of wine and took a few sips slowly, "Ruofei, which young ladies did your aunt invite over today?" ”

Wu Ruofei is the second son of Yongning Bofu, but he is the only son-in-law of the Zhuang family.

Wu Ruofei knew the character of his cousin very well, and joked with a smile, "What? Is my cousin looking at a young lady? ”

Yin Hengcheng smiled faintly, "You are wrong, I will help your second cousin look at each other, you must know that there will be a show girl entering the palace soon." With my father's intentions, he wants to help us choose a concubine. ”

Now it has been sixteen years in the first century, three years ago, the eldest prince's concubine gave birth to the eldest grandson and died, and now the filial piety period has just passed, and the queen intends to let the eldest prince continue the string. As for the second prince, there are concubines, but there are no concubines. This time, there must be a concubine to be chosen.

It has not been a day or two since the eldest prince and the second prince competed against each other. They are destined to be rivals and not brothers.

The eldest prince Yin Hengcheng is the eldest son of the current queen, and he is long and old, and his identity is noble and extraordinary. And the birth of the second prince should not be underestimated. His biological mother is the imperial concubine Zhou who is closely under the queen, and the Zhou family is also a loyal Bofu that many people rely on.

Yin Hengcheng was extremely unhappy in his heart, this time he chose a concubine, his mother belonged to Wu Ruoyun, the daughter of the Wu family, but he wanted to marry the daughter of an important minister. Grasping the important ministers of the DPRK and the central government and winning them over is what I have always wanted to do.

Yin Hengtai also glanced at Yin Hengcheng, and saw that the clouds were rolling on his face, and he understood after thinking about it. Everyone knows that this time the eldest prince continues to be the girl of the Wu family. Empress Wu will definitely let her niece ascend to the throne, there is no doubt about it.

"I'm tired of the royal brother, I don't dare to surprise the beauty."

Yin Hengtai thought very openly, he chose a concubine this time, the main concubine must be from the Zhou family, and he didn't have to think about the candidate, the mother concubine had already arranged for Zhou Qingyi, the eldest lady of the Zhou family. However, he still has the position of two side concubines. Squinted his eyes, thought about it secretly, and only felt that Chengzhu was in his chest.

Wu Ruofei doesn't like to get involved with these princes, but in this kind of family, supporting the eldest prince has become a family mission.

"Cousin, why don't we all go to the South Park together? At this moment, the female guests are all watching their mother's delicate flowers in the West Garden, and we will not be abrupt when we go to the South Garden. ”

Sitting like this and writing poems and lyrics is really boring. The host Wu Ruofei said this, and everyone was naturally willing.

Yin Hengcheng put on a smiling face, "Excellent!" My aunt's garden has always been beautiful. ”

The group went to the South Park without mentioning it.

On Ke Xiyuan's side, the ladies all sat together one after another. Ke Xiyuan was surrounded by Wu Ruoyun, Ke Xiai and Ke Xilan saw that the ladies from the Pan Mansion were coming, so they also greeted Ke Xiyuan and went to play.

Ke Xiyuan only felt that her eyes were dark, and she didn't know anyone at all. This Yu family has never taken this original owner out. When he was thirteen years old, he didn't even have a handkerchief.

Secretly decided, I had to make a few friends. Ke Xiyuan was firm in that sentence, it is easier to do things when you have more friends. In this day and age, there are several good girlfriends, and sometimes it is twice the result with half the effort.

In addition to Wu Ruoyun, Yongning Bofu also has two daughters, Wu Ruojuan and Wu Ruoxin. The two followed Wu Ruoyun to entertain the ladies of various provinces, humble and respectful.

Ke Xiyuan suddenly felt that Yu's method of doing excellent surface kung fu was very good, at least, on the surface, he had never served Ke Xifeng so subserviently.

The ladies here are also divided into factions.

On one side, it is headed by Wu Ruoyun, and on the other side, it is headed by Miss Lin Er, the Marquis of Zhongyong. In fact, the Wu family and the Lin Mansion should be close.

In order to win over the Lin family, Empress Wu accepted Lin Yueqian, the eldest granddaughter of the loyal and brave Marquis Lin Bowen, into the palace in her early years and made Yin Hengcheng a side concubine. Although Lin Yueqian is a concubine, her father Lin Zhichong is the general of Zhenguo, and he is the person that Empress Wu tries her best to woo.

Looking at the three young masters in the Lin family's room, the eldest son Lin Zihong married Lu Jiaying, the eldest daughter of Lu Xuantong, the second young master, Lin Ziran, married Yin Enqin, the eldest daughter of the Ping'an Hou Mansion, and the third young master married Ke Xiqing, the eldest lady of the Ke Mansion.

No matter how you look at it, the Lin family is a strong team. Empress Wu didn't want to let go of such a good person.

It's just that the second young lady Lin Yueqing was appointed by Zhou Chenshu, the eldest young master of the Changfang of the Loyal Uncle Mansion.

The Zhou family is the maiden family of the imperial concubine Zhou.

Empress Wu also beat it, but the eldest lady of the Lin Mansion, Lu Shi, just played Tai Chi, and didn't mention anything else at all, and her face was full of smiles. Empress Wu secretly hated in her heart, and she didn't understand which side the Lin family was on.

At the moment, it is natural for these young ladies to divide into two groups. However, Wu Ruoyun is a person who is exquisite, even if she knows that she and Lin Yueqing are on their own side, she is also thoughtful. Lin Yueqing's demeanor is also excellent, and her response is also extremely natural, and outsiders can't see the different colors at all.

It's just that Ke Xiyuan still noticed a little difference.

For example, this Second Miss Lin, the tea in her hand was just put down after passing her mouth. Ke Xiyuan noticed that there was a maid behind Lin Yueqing, who always handed a snack to Lin Yueqing while people were not paying attention.

Ke Xiyuan sat at a clever angle, and she could just see this scene.

Qiqiao, who was standing behind Ke Xiyuan, also noticed this scene, and bent over Ke Xiyuan's ear and said, "Miss, the slave maid was not well prepared this time, remember it next time." ”

Qiqiao became the consul of the second-class girl, and the whole person only felt that the responsibility was heavy. Drunken Zhi is obviously going to match people, and Ke Xiyuan will be her biggest in the room in the future. This realization made Qiqiao cheer up twelve points, and only paid attention to the personal girls around him.

She has to be good enough to stay with Miss all the time. Follow Miss, and in the future, it shouldn't be too sad.

Ke Xiyuan picked up the tea and covered it up, "Silly girl, it's okay, it's just that you're hungry." Don't be too nervous, take your time. ”

I have to say that Ke Xiyuan's management methods are excellent. Predecessor as a senior executive, what kind of employees have never seen. Now it is also applicable to the management of the inner house.

When Qiqiao has this kind of affection, it must be comforted and encouraged in a timely manner, and next time, there will be unexpected surprises for yourself.

"Miss, you still have to pay attention to your diet. Although this is not my own house, I have to guard against it. ”

Ke Xiyuan raised her eyebrows and couldn't help but smile secretly. Yes, in your own house, you have to be fully armed. It's just that this time, Ke Xiyuan couldn't figure out what Yu's idea was.

"Which sister is this, she looks so good."

While thinking about it, a sweet voice sounded in my ears.

Ke Xiyuan looked around, and it was Lin Yueqing. got up and returned the salute, "Hello sister, I'm Ke Xiyuan, ranked fifth in Ke Mansion." ”

Lin Yueqing looked at the girl in front of her, but before she had time to see those bright eyes, she only saw a head of black hair. Just dealt with the ladies of the various provinces, and inadvertently found that there was a gaze following him.

I never eat food from other countries, and it has become a habit. It's just that I didn't expect this girl to find out. However, for some reason, looking at this girl, I have a very good impression.

Fifth Miss Kefu, Lin Yueqing thought about it and knew.

"It's my cousin, but my sister is clumsy, and I can't recognize my sister's beauty. Now that you're out, you have to talk to us more, don't sit by yourself. ”

Ke Xiyuan's impression of Lin Yueqing is very good, Wu Ruoyun is the kind of eight-sided exquisite, but this Lin Yueqing gives people the feeling of a spring breeze. is also sleek, but Lin Yueqing makes people feel unsophisticated.

"Second Cousin Lin, don't worry about her. My five sisters are going out for the first time today. ”

Don't look at it, Ke Xiyuan knows that it's Ke Xifeng. This sister-in-law will not miss any opportunity to insult and humiliate her.

Lin Yueqing naturally understood the delicate relationship between the concubines and the concubines. His mother Lu is the sister of the eldest wife of the Ke family, Lu Shi, and these two are also his cousins.

Ke Xiyuan subconsciously pursed her lips and didn't speak.

Lin Yueqing glanced at Ke Xifeng with disgust, "You little girl, since you know that your sister is shy, you will take her to talk to us more, and if you talk about it, you won't be ashamed!" Aren't you also shy when you? ”

Lin Yueqing's voice was soft and comfortable.

Even if Ke Xifeng was unhappy, he couldn't say anything, "Sister Lin only hurts her sister, but she doesn't hurt me anymore." ”

Lin Yueqing smiled, "You are all my cousins, I am in pain." ”

"Sister Lin, why don't you tell us about your two delicate cousins?"

A tall girl smiled.

"This is Yang Yuehe, the eldest daughter of Yang Xijiu, and this is Feng'er and Yuanyuan. Yuehe, you have to help me greet my next two cousins. "There are a lot of people here today, and Lin Yueqing has to deal with it. Accumulating contacts is always what the sons and daughters of high-ranking families have to do.

Yang Yuehe, the daughter of Yang Wanli, the prince of the country.

Ke Xifeng was a little unimpressed, and continued to stick to Wu Ruoyun when he saw the ceremony. Ke Xiyuan is very happy, this is the first time that the Kefu sisters have come into contact with other girls.

"Hello sister." It is not strange that there are many people who have a courtesy, Ke Xiyuan has a standard salute.

Yang Yuehe pulled her with one hand, "Sister, don't be so polite, I saw you sitting alone from the beginning, and I had the heart to go over to talk to my sister, but I was afraid that it would be too abrupt." Now I know that my sister is Qingqing's cousin, so I have the cheekiness to make friends with my sister. ”

Yang Yuehe is as his name suggests, elegant and dusty, which makes people feel good.

"This is the first time I've gone out, I'm afraid of making a mistake and losing my mother's face, so I don't dare to open my mouth casually, thank you sister for being willing to accompany Yuanyuan!"

Yang Yuehe could understand Ke Xiyuan's situation, and only felt that the girl in front of her had a firm look between her eyebrows, she must be a good woman and have a good relationship. Those who came here today were either celebrities or aristocrats, and Yang Yuehe was a little tired of coping.

saw Ke Xiyuan at a glance because for some reason, Yang Yuehe saw laziness in the eyes of this girl. It seemed to be a complete stay out of the matter, the girl just calmly watched for a while, and the rest had nothing to do with her.

There are no concubines and concubines in the Yang Mansion, and Yang Wanli does not even have concubines. Yang Yuehe doesn't have a strong concept of concubine, so she doesn't have any scruples about Ke Xiyuan's identity as a concubine. On the contrary, Yang Yuehe had a sense of disgust for Ke Xifeng.

Ke Xifeng's contempt for himself, Yang Yuehe didn't miss it.
