The wind is gentle and smooth, the green willows are in the wind, and the young men and women looking at each other across the bank add a bit of poetry and picturesqueness.

Ah Bao looked at the little girls who couldn't care about quarreling anymore with a black line on her face, she was thick-skinned, and she really couldn't blush at the young boys on the other side, but she was afraid that she would not fit in, so she could only follow the most reserved posture.

The noble children on the other side obviously knew that the girls in the Dao Water Pavilion were secretly paying attention to them, and they all had a look, and after reciting the poems and lyrics, they ordered the servants to bring the four treasures of the table and the study, and write down the poems they had written before, and pass them on to everyone to enjoy and read.

"Ah Jin, I don't know what poems they made." Liu Xu'er is obviously very interested in the poems made by those sons, she comes from a century-old scholarly family, her father is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, the family is edified, and she has a lot of research on poetry.

Zhou Jin knew the temperament of his friends, and saw that although the other girls did not speak, they also faintly revealed an expression of wanting to watch it, smiled, and invited a maid wearing a navy blue jacket, and said: "Please go and tell Zhou Tong beside my eldest brother, can you bring the poems of your sons to our sisters to enjoy, and it is also a good spring." ”

The maid smiled and answered, and went to the other side of the lake.

After a while, the maid came over with the little servant Zhou Jin, Zhou Jin held the poems of the group of famous and noble children in his hands, and the girls all gathered together with great interest to watch, and saw that the lord of Lening took the poem manuscript of Zhou Yu on the top for the first time and looked at it, and then smiled and said: "Brother Yu's poem is really very elegant." Immediately, he read Zhou Yu's poem aloud.

The girl's voice was quite crisp when it was not raised, not as sharp and harsh as before, and the loud voice reached the other side, which also made the group of richly dressed sons on the other side can't help but look over.

Seeing that the lord of Lening snatched Zhou Yu's poems, the other girls had grievances, but it was not good to grab them with her, so they could only take other poems and look at them.

Just when the atmosphere was lively, a group of people appeared at the entrance of the garden, and the maid took the lead and said, "County Lord, girls, His Royal Highness the King of Jin and the Seventh Princess have arrived. ”

“……”

The sound stopped abruptly, everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't react for a while, and the atmosphere fell into a strange state.

Zhou Jin was the first to react, and said to the women who fell into silence with a smile: "Zhilu Dao, sisters, His Royal Highness the King of Jin and the Seventh Princess have arrived, please go with me." ”

They came out of the water pavilion and walked around the blue lake with the group of sons on the other side of the lake, and gathered under a tall redbud tree, which was the season when the bauhinia flowers bloomed, and the purple petals fell to the ground.

The eldest princess of Changping and the concubine Zhou Yongyan walked in front, the king of Jin and the seventh princess accompanied both sides as juniors, and behind them were a group of ladies of noble families. In the distance, the laughter of the eldest princess of Changping came, "What were you doing before, I heard your voice from afar." ”

Led by Zhou Yu and Zhou Jin, after coming over with two teams of people to greet the eldest princess, King Jin, and the seventh princess, Zhou Yu said with a smile: "I saw the bright spring before, and I couldn't help but make a few poems for the occasion. ”

Zhou Jin continued: "Later, we also wanted to pay tribute to the literature of my brother and your sons, so we brought your sons' poems to appreciate, and the sisters were very interested and were appreciating them together." ”

"You're elegant!" Zhou Yongyan clapped his hands and smiled.

"No, I heard that my cousin's poems are very good." The seventh princess interjected with a smile, her delicate eyebrows and eyes were a completely beautiful princess, which made some noble disciples who peeked blush.

Zhou Yu showed a gentle smile and said a little shyly: "The princess praised it." ”

"No, my cousin's poems have even been praised by Mr. Liu Changqing in Wenshan Academy." The seventh princess looked at the young man in front of her who was as gentle as jade, and her face was full of smiles, "I also heard from a few imperial brothers." In order to prove that she was true, the seventh princess originally wanted to find someone to verify, but when she turned her face and found that the royal brother on the side was the most terrible and difficult to get close to in the royal family, her smiling face was a little stiff.

The people present saw it clearly and couldn't help but laugh in their hearts.

Seeing the demeanor of the seventh princess, the eldest princess of Changping moved slightly in her heart and said, "You know how to be lively. I am also very happy to see you young people today, I haven't been so lively for a long time, and I feel extremely comfortable even enjoying the scenery, I wonder if you are willing to accompany my old wife to visit the garden together? ”

The concubine also followed: "The princess is blessed today, even the king of Jin and the seventh princess have come to accompany you to the garden." ”

"They have filial piety." The eldest princess said with a smile.

The husband and wife are in harmony, and the sensitive minds have already guessed the difference, I am afraid that today is not only the eldest princess of Changping who wants to see her daughter-in-law for her beloved son, but also for the seventh princess and the king of Jin to see each other and the princess respectively. After understanding this, the faces of the people present were a little stiff.

The girls and sons present were all from noble families, and their families did not need to marry the royal family, nor did they have any intention of marrying with the royal family. Of course, if another princess comes, the men present are estimated to be a little moved, but the reputation of the seventh princess for her arrogance and arrogance is far and wide, isn't marrying her to marry an ancestor and go home to provide for her? Forget it! As for King Jin...... Forget it, after hearing about his deeds, no girl will want to marry him, maybe she will be tortured to death by him as soon as she marries him, and the emperor clearly does not like this prince, and there is really no future for marrying him.

Everyone thought a lot in a flash, but their faces were still smiling.

The eldest princess of Changping took in everyone's faces, and everyone present was a master of acting, although she was a little surprised at first, she quickly retracted. The eldest princess of Changping's gaze slid over Liu Wu'er, the daughter of a scholar of Liu University, and felt that the sweet and elven Liu Wu'er was very suitable for her nephew who was gloomy and ruthless, and she was very optimistic about Liu Wu'er.

It is said that the eldest princess of Changping held this flower-viewing banquet half for her son, and half of it was also instructed by Emperor Zhengde. Since Emperor Zhengde found out in the prince's intentional reminder that he also has a fifth son who has not married, he is alone, and even the eighteen-year-old eighth prince Chen Liujun Wang has a princess, this discovery made Emperor Zhengde, who has never cared much about his fifth son, finally decided that he should do his duty as a father, and he will definitely sweep his older son out of the house within this year and choose a princess for him.

It's just that it's not easy to choose a princess for him, first of all, this son's personality is really a headache, except for the crown prince, it seems that no prince can be in the same room with him calmly, and no brother can stand his temper. Secondly, his deeds and reputation are really not good in Beijing, and few noble ministers are willing to marry their daughters to him, and after Emperor Zhengde showed his dislike for this prince, those old foxes will not sacrifice a concubine to marry. As for the daughter of a low-grade small family, Emperor Zhengde doesn't like this son anymore, that is also his son, where can he be humiliated by outsiders? So his family affairs dragged on for a year, until the prince couldn't see it, and Fang reminded Emperor Zhengde, who deliberately ignored the king of Jin, that he made up his mind.

So the eldest princess of Changping was instructed, so she decided to hold this flower-viewing banquet, and invited the children of the nobles in Beijing to come to the mansion, so that the king of Jin and the seventh princess could secretly look at each other, and then the emperor would directly give marriage, which also saved a lot of trouble.

As for the seventh princess, she is also old, and Emperor Zhengde decided to solve the lifelong affairs of his son and daughter together, saving him from watching the two leftover men and women dangling in front of him. And the eldest princess of Changping, who is an aunt, is a little displeased with the character of the seventh princess, and because of the emperor's affection, she has to agree, as long as these two people don't fancy her son and daughter, nothing else is her business.

After thinking about it, Princess Changping looked at Ah Bao who was standing with several girls from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, judging from her appearance alone, the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became, and it was also suitable for her son.

In their own minds, a group of people accompanied the eldest princess of Changping to visit the garden, and after the garden, they went to Qinghui Garden to watch the play, today the eldest princess invited the most famous troupe in the workshop to sing into the house to sing, it is reported that the day singing skills are excellent, they have launched a new play every year, and the old and new, very popular with the female dependents.

A stage was set up in Qinghui Garden, and everyone could sit in the attic opposite the stage to watch the play, and the maids with trays shuttled by.

After everyone sat down according to their identities, the drama on the stage also began to sing.

The seats are divided into two parts, the left is for men and the right is for women, and the middle is separated by a screen, and the male and female seats are separated. The eldest princess of Changping and the seventh princess sat first on the right, Zhou Yongyan and the king of Jin sat on the left, and the others sat behind in turn. There is nothing special about this position, but what is special is that the eldest princess of Changping directly called Liu Xu'er, the daughter of Liu University's scholar, and Li Mingjin, the daughter of Zhenbei general, to her side to watch the play and talk, which makes people think about it a lot.

In fact, when Ah Bao was called, his scalp was also a little numb, but he still came over and sat next to the eldest princess of Changping with Liu Wu'er, and talked about drama with the eldest princess of Changping. This scene naturally made some people secretly laugh, as expected, she was the daughter of a general, and she couldn't even say anything like opera, and her education level was very low.

The seventh princess glanced at the men's seat on the other side of the screen, but she could dimly see a few figures, her eyes fell directly on Zhou Yu behind the screen, and then she turned her head and looked at the two daughters who left the eldest princess of Changping by her side, and her silver teeth were biting, she knew that one of these two people must be the daughter-in-law of her aunt, no matter which one it was, she would never let them marry Zhou Yu. With a turn of her eyes, she saw another figure sitting with Zhou Yong behind the screen, and the seventh princess had an idea in her heart.

"Auntie, why do you only talk to them and ignore your niece?" The seventh princess said coquettishly.

The eldest princess of Changping nodded her nose amusedly, "You monkey often come to play with me, and I'm tired of talking to you, but it's Mingjin girl and Su'er girl, my aunt is rare to see." ”

The seventh princess complained: "I know that Aunt Lu Dao doesn't care for me, but I can't complain about my aunt, who let Sister Mingjin be here." Speaking of Sister Mingjin, she is also a good person, I used to have some misunderstandings with her, I was ignorant at that time, but I didn't see her for a few years, but I felt quite liked. Sister Mingjin, I made a joke with you about that a few days ago, I hope you don't take it to heart. ”

Ah Bao looked at her in surprise, although she didn't know what this girl was going to do, she still said humbly: "The princess is polite, Ming Jin didn't take it to heart." ”

"Sure enough, Sister Mingjin is the best, I really like it so much. Aunt, such a good person as Sister Mingjin, it would be great if we could see each other from time to time, isn't it. "The Seventh Princess is innocent.

The eldest princess of Changping somewhat understood what this niece had in mind, and she still smiled on her face: "If you like her, you can often invite her into the palace to talk to you." ”

The seventh princess clapped her hands and smiled: "Okay, that's it." ”

“……”

Everyone almost forgot that they were here to see the play now, and they could only watch the aunt and nephew and give the words as soon as you said a word, but it was the party A Bao, who couldn't insert a word, so he became the playmate of the seventh princess.
