Le Yi took the bowl and was about to go out, when the maid came, Bai Mu vomited again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Why do you drink so much, it's terrible." Le Yi hurried away, not paying attention to the dark light behind her.

I just finished cleaning up for Bai Mu over there, and I vomited it again here.

Le Yi ran here and there, and it wasn't until the second half of the night that she was cleared, and then she went back to her yard to sleep tiredly.

Early the next morning, let the maid wake herself up, and go to boil the soup for the headache.

Yang Qicheng and Yang Qi'an were still sleeping when they came over, so they went to the court first.

When they woke up in the morning, sure enough, the two of them had a splitting headache, and after drinking the soup, they got a little better, and the hour was not early, so the two went to see the old lady and left the house.

Le Yi was relieved to know that they were out of the house.

The days passed like this for a few days, and soon it was the birthday of the old lady of Qingwangfu, that is, Yan Xiaoshuang's grandmother.

Qingwangfu is one of the several major palaces that are now retained, Qing Wangye is the sixth brother of Emperor Xuanwu today, there are two in fifty this year, there are three sons and one daughter, the age gap between the four children is a little large, the son of the world is now Chinese New Year's Eve four, the second son is thirty, and the third son is Yan Zixing only seventeen, and the youngest daughter Yan Xiaoshuang is fifteen.

And this old concubine can be said to be the object of envy of many harem women, when she was the first emperor, she was a concubine, quite favored, and gave birth to a son and a daughter successively, standing steadily in the harem. And Prince Qing, who was the sixth prince at that time, was taciturn, not good at arguing, and did not compete with other brothers, so after Emperor Xuanwen ascended the throne, he was not bad to him.

The old lady went out of the house with her son peacefully and lived the life of an old lady. For so many years, she lived in a simple house, rarely came out and walked around, this time because it was her 70th birthday, Qing Wang Ye insisted on doing it for her, so she sent invitations to banquet guests.

Yan Xiaoshuang greeted her very early, and posted to her alone, afraid that she would not go, which made her cry and laugh. The old lady of Qingwangfu celebrates her birthday, and there are many people who want to go like a carp crossing the river, she and Xiaoshuang are friends again, there is no accident, and they will definitely go.

On this day, the wind was beautiful, the weather was very good, and early, the family dressed up and got into the carriage and set off.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they felt what it meant to be busy, and they waited for a long time before they were taken to the backyard amid the incessant apologies of the housekeeper who greeted them, while the men were taken to the front yard.

Waiting in front of the Hanging Flower Gate were Mrs. Shizi and Mrs. Er, and the two took turns to take important guests to meet the old lady.

They went to the old lady's courtyard under the leadership of Mrs. Shizi.

Walking these roads alone, it can already be seen that the Qingwang Mansion covers a very wide area, and when you look at the courtyard of the old lady, it is even more reflected, the wide courtyard, the spacious house, even now their family of seven, plus the maid and the wife of the prince, etc., are empty here.

Mrs. Shizi, who is in her thirties, looks mediocre, although she is not a big beauty, but it makes people look very comfortable, she took Le Yi's hand and said a lot of words, to the effect that she often heard her sister-in-law mention it, saying that Le Yi is very capable or something, and now I have seen it with my own eyes, but I didn't expect that people are even more agile, which makes people happy when they look at it.

Of course, the old lady and the Liu family were happy, and everyone talked and laughed and went to the main house.

The old lady in the house wore a dark red blessing gown, although she was seventy, but there were not many wrinkles on her face, and her head full of silver filaments not only did not look old, but looked energetic, looking at people with a three-point smile, which made people feel happy to be close.

After knowing that they were the Marquis of Wuping and the Marquis of Wu'an, he smiled and gave Le Yi and Jingshu a meeting gift, and said something to the old lady, and finally pulled Le Yi to look at it again and again, she loved it very much, saying that it was no wonder that her granddaughter often mentioned her, she was really a good child.

Princess Qing also smiled and gave a meeting gift, and she was very kind to her only daughter's friend.

When Yan Xiaoshuang learned that she was coming, she hurriedly came over from the flower hall and happily pulled her.

Seeing that they were so affectionate, the elders hurriedly waved their hands to let them play by themselves, and a few people went to the flower hall where the little girls stayed with a smile.

Jing Shu lowered her eyes and followed quietly behind her, although the two completely different treatments did not seem to outsiders to be much different, but she clearly knew that there was a big difference between heaven and earth.

After lunch at noon, they began to watch the play, and the ladies and some young daughters-in-law were not much interested, and they all went to the lotus pond in the back garden with Xiaoshuang to play.

The lotus pond in June has already bloomed some lotus flowers, the gentle breeze brings a burst of fragrance, standing on the bank of the river, looking at the lake in the distance of the lotus flowers, very beautiful. The little girls and daughters-in-law talked along the shore in twos and threes.

"It's a shame that the two of them can't come with us." Ruoling is talking about Zheng Yun and Jingyue, Zheng Yun has to serve by her mother-in-law's side, and Jingyue is with her sister-in-law, so it is inconvenient to come.

"That's it, I think Sister Yun is too pitiful." Frost pouted.

Ruoling and Le Yi glanced at each other, and also sighed and shook their heads.

It has been more than a year since she got married, Zheng Yun has never been pregnant, her in-laws were okay with her, but there were quite a few complaints about this matter, and Mrs. Li even planned to find an aunt for Li Yu, and then talk about it first. Mrs. Zheng resolutely opposed it when she heard the news, after all, it had only been more than a year since they got married, and it was too much for the Li family to do so. Mrs. Li has her own considerations, her son is almost twenty years old, and she is very anxious about not having a child yet, although she has this idea, but she is naturally unhappy to see her mother's tough attitude before she has implemented the action. The two in-laws with strong personalities have a disagreement, and the direct consequence is that the relationship between Zheng Yun and Li Yu also has problems, and the two quarrel and fight from time to time. Recently, I met Zheng Yun, and she was very haggard.

The daughter-in-law and her son quarreled, and no mother-in-law would blame her son, they all thought that it was the daughter-in-law's problem, and Mrs. Li was no exception, so she was detained and waited behind her today, not allowing her to leave half a step.

"The next time we meet Sister Yun, we have to persuade her, she is very similar to Mrs. Li, she is too strong, and she will always suffer." Le Yi thought that Li Yu was the youngest son in the family, one eldest and one young, and many times the way of doing things and seeing problems was different.

"What we said didn't work, after all, she hasn't married yet, and Sister Jingrong persuaded her to be almost the same." Ruoling also felt that Zheng Yun was a little stubborn, and was afraid that what they said would not work.

"The truth is the same, in fact, everything is clear, although we are not married, but we are all people with brothers and sisters-in-law, and it is always good to mention it in front of Sister Yun."

Ruoling and Xiaoshuang nodded.

A little girl came to them and saluted them, Xiaoshuang saw it, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly pulled her aside and said a few words. When the little girl left, she said excitedly: "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's go to the front, my third brother is playing a pot throwing game, and today there is a lottery head given by my father." ā€

"Haha, that's interesting, we haven't had fun in a long time, let's go." Xiaoshuang clapped his hands.

The border war has been fought for a year, and everyone is low-key, where will there be a big fanfare.

When I got to the venue, there were already a lot of people. This is a large open space behind the lotus pond, which should be used for martial arts practice. At this moment, it is divided into four areas, up and down, left and right, each area has a competition project, and the first place in each project can get the lottery of King Qing.

The first thing they arrived at was the pot throwing project, and the people around the row of pot throwing were all young talents.

Ruoling saw it and asked in a low voice: "It's not suitable for us to come here, why are they all sons?" ā€

Xiaoshuang pursed her lips and smiled: "What are you afraid of!" This is in my house, do I still think it has to be done? ā€

What she didn't say was that the competitions here were all prepared for the sons who came today, and what was prepared for the girls was to listen to the drama with their elders.

But she has another purpose, and she can't say it.

When the more than ten sons who were excited to invest saw the three beautiful girls, they couldn't help but look at them several times, and those who knew each other greeted enthusiastically.

"Why are you here?" Yan Zixing saw that her sister came over with a friend and couldn't help asking, didn't you invite a female dependent here. When he saw Yang Leyi behind her, he raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his lips curled.

"What's the matter, the third brother doesn't welcome us? Let's take a look elsewhere. "Xiaoshuang laughed at the thief's.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Yan Zixing hurriedly said: "Of course you are welcome, how can you not welcome it!" Then you guys watch first, let's play a game. ā€

"That's not good, since we're here, why don't we all come together!" Ruoling saw itchy hands, I really haven't played for a long time.

"Okay! Don't cry if you lose! And you, to play or not? He said this to Le Yi, and without waiting for her to speak, he continued: "Don't say no, it's not so simple, don't go to play in the future, you can go to your grandmother's play as soon as possible." ā€

Ruoling tugged at her sleeve and motioned for her to play along.

I really didn't plan to play, but when he said this, it's not okay not to play, Le Yi nodded.

The young men applauded.

"We'll join us too, okay?"

"And us."

"And me."

There was the voice of the girls behind him, and when everyone looked back, it turned out that there were many nobles again.

Xiaoshuang frowned, why did so many people suddenly come, didn't she arrange for her second sister-in-law to take care of them?

"What, isn't my cousin welcome?" It was Yan Xiaoxuan who said this.

Yanzi Xing laughed: "Since you want to, then come all of them and rearrange the pot!" ā€

The attendant hurriedly added another pot.

"I'm in a group with Leyi." He Rou ran to Le Yi's side and said affectionately.

"I'm also in a group with Le Yi." Yan Xiaoru did not show weakness.

Jing Shu smiled and said: "My cousin is popular, then I will be in a group with the eldest princess, and I hope the eldest princess will not dislike it." ā€

Yan Xiaoxuan nodded dispensably.

Le Yi looked at them and felt that her head was big, and when she saw Kong Baoyi, who she hadn't seen for a long time, she couldn't help but look at it twice. Her expression was as cold and arrogant as ever, but she was a little haggard, not as energetic as before. I heard that she was engaged and would marry soon, but I didn't expect to come out today.

Kong Baoyi didn't know why they suddenly went to pay tribute to Yang Leyi, but she didn't care, she had something very important to do today!

Yan Zi Xingcai didn't care who they were in a group with, and simply said the rules: four people cast the pot each time, ten at a time, divided into six groups, and the two people who entered the pot the most in each group entered the second round, so that the first place in the end could get the lottery.

At first, the teenagers wanted to let them release some water, so as not to be eliminated in the first round, how boring it was.

I found that there were still a lot of young ladies left in the first round, and they were all good at throwing pots, but in the second round, they didn't dare to relax too much and threw seriously.

In this way, among the thirteen people left in the second round, there were only three noble girls, that is, Le Yi Ruoling and Xiaoshuang, and the others were eliminated.

Happy Xiaoshuang smiled.

Next, in groups of twos and twos, one more person directly entered the next round, this person Yan Zixing nodded Le Yi, and the teenagers nodded when they saw that it was the youngest beautiful girl who walked down in the picture.

Xiaoshuang looked at him and grinned, and Yan Zixing glared at her.

Kong Baoyi was not angry when she was eliminated, she took a few steps back and walked back and forth, looked around, and didn't see the person she wanted to see, so she waited patiently.

Xiaoshuang was eliminated in this round, plus Le Yi had 7 people left, and then there was another round to take the top three with the highest to enter the final competition.

Unexpectedly, Le Yi was also one of them, and the teenagers who watched it praised it one after another.

The two princesses and He Rou didn't expect her technique to be so precise, and they were both envious and jealous.

Jing Shu smiled reluctantly.

Even Kong Baoyi came over to take a look and looked at her twice.

Yan Zixing announced that he would rest for a while before the final round, and everyone laughed and chatted.

At this moment, a group of people from afar walked over.

Yan Zi Xing saw it and went over to greet him.

When people got closer, it turned out that the prince of King Qing came over with His Royal Highness the Prince! There are also Yan Zirui, Shen Ye, Yang Wenkang and others.

Everyone saluted, and King Qing smiled and asked them to continue, and he accompanied His Highness to join in the fun.

Le Yi and Ruoling happily walked up to their brother to talk.

Kong Baoyi's eyes were bright and scary, and the hand holding the handkerchief trembled slightly.

Jing Shu followed behind Le Yi, her eyes couldn't stop glancing at Yan Zizhen.

The prince's robe in a yellow straight robe looked more and more lofty on him, and the cold expression made people feel unattainable, but it made people yearn to get closer and closer! She was excited in her heart, but she was helpless about the current situation, she didn't have the slightest chance to get close to him! If... She is a serious young lady of the Hou Mansion... How nice it would be!

He Rou and Yan Xiaoru saw Yang Wenlin, stepped forward to talk to him, the two of them said a word, he was dizzy, and then saw the little sister who seemed to be smiling, a spirit, and immediately ran to Yang Wenkang's side.

Neither girl was a fuel-efficient lamp, and she was bold enough to follow him with good steps.

Yang Wenlin had no choice but to be a wooden stake and not say anything, even so, the two of them could chirp beside him as if they were singing.

Yan Zizhen, who was wearing a cold breath, swept his cold eyes, took in the scene in the field, and ignored the two eyes that looked at him with special meaning, his eyes paused on a little girl for a second, and quickly swept over.

After seeing He Rou and Yan Xiaoru talking around Yang Wenlin, she frowned.
