In fact, in Duanyue's impression, I have never seen what the Queen Mother looks like, and Meng Yin and Meng Tao rarely talk about their grandmother. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info suddenly wanted to attend the Queen Mother's birthday, and Duanyue couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"It's the Queen Mother's birthday, so the county lord can't wear bells and whistles, be steady and dignified." Cuiguo was in front of the closet and choosing clothes while thinking about it, as if the person who was going to the banquet was not Duanyue but her. Cuiguo was busy working on the side, while Duanyue was lying on the bed in a daze.

She caught a glimpse of the peach blossom branch in a thin white porcelain vase on the dresser, and then remembered that it had been forgotten here for many days, and that the petals had dried up and seemed to turn to powder when they were pruned. Cuiguo felt Duanyue's gaze, she looked down and saw the peach blossom, but she frowned.

"This flower is wilting, it looks like a bad scenery. I'll help the county lord lose it. Saying that, she was about to go to get the porcelain vase, Duanyue hurriedly sat up from the bed and called out to Cuiguo.

"Nope! Just leave it alone, don't lose it. ”

Cuiguo looked puzzled, and she looked at the peach blossom face full of doubts. "It's all dry, what is the county lord left for?"

"I think this flower looks different when it's withered." As she spoke, she got out of bed and pushed the withered brown peach blossom away. "Leave this alone, have you chosen the clothes for the banquet?"

"Ah, it's ready." Cuiguo was successfully taken away from the topic by her, she immediately took out a set of smoky purple clothes from the wardrobe, and hurriedly helped Duanyue change clothes. Dressed in smoky purple, she is very delicate and lovely.

Yan Feng originally said that he would come and go with Duanyue when the time was about right, but after waiting for a while, he didn't see him coming. Duanyue dragged her chin, her fingers pounded on the table irritably, making one sound after another, which was very disturbing. She glanced at the sky outside the house, why hasn't my brother come over yet? In the end, I couldn't sit still, so I slapped the table and stood up.

"I said I would come to pick me up, why haven't you come yet!" There was already a hint of anger in her tone, and she waved her sleeves and walked out the door.

Cuiguo couldn't see what she meant, so she hurriedly chased after her and asked hurriedly. "Where are you going?"

"Where else can I go, go to my brother's side and see what's going on." As soon as she stepped out of the gate of the courtyard, she saw Yan Feng and Xu Xiachu walking towards her. The two are always so inseparable, it is inevitable that Duanyue can't help but look up and down. Seeing that the wind was wearing a court dress that he couldn't wear a few times a year, he looked like he had washed away his previous sense of youth, and he really had the seriousness of an adult, just like the two of them.

He knew that he was late for the appointment, so he showed a hint of embarrassment. "Just right, let's go." With this simple sentence, Duanyue had no choice but to put away her little temperament, obediently follow the side of the wind, and get into the carriage.

The brother and sister are rarely alone in a room, but they are very restrained.

Outsiders know that Ning Hou and Shi'an County Lord have a deep brother and sister relationship, but over the years, Yan Feng has always practiced outside every once in a while, and rarely at home, so he rarely talks to Duanyue. Now that the two were sitting together, Duanyue suddenly felt that there was nothing to say to her brother, so the two could only sit side by side in silence.

Suddenly, Duanyue's nose smelled a faint fragrance, seducing her sense of smell as if it were nothing. She didn't quite know what it smelled like, so she subconsciously sniffed and prepared to sniff more closely. The wind heard her sniff and just hooked her lips and smiled.

"It's just the pandan I'm wearing, if you like it, I'll give it to you." So saying, he took out the dark green sachet from his waist. It was a dark green water-patterned sachet, and the first few embroidered flowers on it may have been too old, and the light-colored embroidery thread was black and dirty.

Duanyue felt familiar at the first glance when she saw the sachet, but after thinking about it for a while, she couldn't think of where she had seen it. Seeing that it was such a personal thing, Duanyue could only smile and shake his hand. "How embarrassed am I to rob my brother of your things. I just wanted to ask what it tasted like. ”

"It's not an expensive spice, but it was originally the same as this sachet, and I thought it tasted good and kept buying it. But ......" he pinched the sachet. "I haven't lost this sachet all the time, otherwise it's a pity to think it's weird."

Over the years, Duanyue has been to the palace many times, and she is already familiar with this road. Along the way, they nodded and greeted the courtiers they knew or didn't know, obviously looking like a county lord.

Yan Feng followed Murong Chui to talk to the ministers, and Duanyue also consciously walked to the imperial garden and mingled with a group of girls and young ladies. Mandarin Yuan and Mrs. Yu sat in the corner drinking tea, ignoring the chatter of the ladies. When Duanyue saw the two, she hurriedly ran over with a smile.

"Mrs. Yu, Mandarin Duck." Naturally, she sat down and struck up a conversation with the two of them. "Why do you sit in such a corner and don't talk to others?"

"What is there to say, it's nothing more than which young lady is married again, which son is married, I might as well sit in the corner with the mandarin duck and steal it." Mrs. Yu's face was gentle, she took a sip of the clear tea she was holding, and looked at Duanyue with bright eyes. "Didn't you get scolded by Lord Hou after you went back to the hunting ground?"

She changed her words, and she was obviously a lot more severe. Duanyue turned her head sideways and caught a glimpse of the mandarin duck burying her head low, not daring to speak, and knew that Mrs. Yu knew that the two of them had secretly gone to the hunting ground. She could only smile and immediately relent.

"Mrs. Yu, I was wrong, but the mandarin duck was also forcibly taken by me, don't blame her."

"Hmph," Mrs. Yu snorted coldly. "How dare the mandarin duck sneak out. You, you, you're such a big person, why do things always follow your temperament? Let's see, which young lady is like you. ”

"Mrs. Yu is wrong in what she said, Xiaoyue is not a young lady, I am the lord of Shi'an." He raised his chin triumphantly as he spoke.

Mrs. Yu saw her look so skinless and faceless, so she had to roll her eyes and stop talking to her. Chang'an's circle is so small, basically everyone has been photographed by Duanyue, Duanyue became bored all of a sudden, she looked around, and they were all familiar faces.

But when I glanced around, I saw a small woman in orange standing in the corner, her face was unfamiliar, and she had never seen her in Chang'an City. She stood timidly in the corner, as if no one knew her, and looked very lonely.

Duanyue pointed to the woman and asked Mrs. Yu in a whisper. "That young lady has a very strange face, which girl is it?"

Mrs. Yu turned her head to look at the woman, and her face instantly turned cold. "It's Lu Qingyi, the lord of Jin Zhao, who lives on the back cover with the Marquis of Jin Zhao all the year round, and rarely returns to Beijing."

Marquis of Jin Zhao? This name is extremely familiar, and Duanyue muttered in a low voice. "Jin Zhao? It sounds familiar, but where have you heard of it? ”

"Princess Sheng'an married Marquis Zhao of Jin back then, and this Lu Qingyi is the only daughter of Princess Sheng'an." Mrs. Yu didn't raise her head to help Duanyue explain clearly.

Duanyue suddenly came to her senses.

Mandarin Yuan also looked at the conversation between the two, and saw Lu Qingyi standing alone in the corner, and there was no one beside him, he was very inseparable, and suddenly felt pity. "Then the county lord of Jin Zhao looks very pitiful, why don't we invite her to sit together?"

Mrs. Yu glared at her and said angrily. "Since no one cares about her, let's not be the target of public criticism, lest people say that they tend to be inflammatory."

"Trending towards inflammation?" Duanyue couldn't help but repeat it. "Is the Marquis of Jin Zhao so powerful?"

"What does the Marquis of Jin Zhao say is that he was sealed by the first emperor, and it is already very beautiful to inherit it to this generation, and he married Princess Sheng'an, isn't it even more awe-inspiring?" Mrs. Yu sighed. "But it is precisely because of this that the emperor has an extra heart and let the family of Marquis Jin Zhaohou move to the fiefdom, and they cannot return to Beijing if they are not recalled."

Duanyue subconsciously looked up at Lu Qingyi again, I don't know when Princess Sheng'an came over, the two of them stood together and their faces were not the same, their faces were delicate, it seemed that Jin Zhaohou was also a beautiful man.

Her straight gaze caused Lu Qingyi to look here involuntarily. Seeing Duanyue's little eyes, she tentatively reciprocated with a smile, Lu Qingyi's smile made Duanyue feel very embarrassed, so she had to immediately look away. She doesn't have a good impression of Princess Sheng'an, and she doesn't have any feelings for Lu Qingyi either. Thinking that since he has lived in a foreign fiefdom for a long time, it doesn't hurt if he doesn't make friends.

Thinking about it like this, she suddenly became enlightened, and continued to talk and laugh with Mrs. Yu and Mandarin Yuan.
