After Ling Qingyu found a quiet room and settled Murong Ye, Fang came with Mo Yuqing Tan a moment before the banquet began.

The main venue of the banquet is in the Quchi in the house, this Quchi is a slender serpentine, on both sides is a large courtyard open space, along the Quchi left and right set up ten seats, each table is 4 people, men and women are right, just divided into two sides to sit well, two by two, neither too close nor too far.

Ling Qingyu sat on the right seat as the host, and beside her sat Tang Wanning, Jin Yun and Wang Zhiyue, the daughters of the three nobles of Tianxuan, the living water of the koi pond was injected into the quchi, and the murmuring of the water during the banquet was also quite interesting to the sound of frogs.

"Why did my sister come so late, we sat down in this quchi before you came, didn't you see a handsome boy who forgot our sisters." Tang Wanning couldn't help but quip.

Ling Qing's face turned red, today this is Qu Shui Liuyu, since the mother greeted those noble ladies and wives, and the sixth brother entertained those sons and young masters who came to enjoy the garden and enjoy the scenery, and then introduced them into the banquet one by one.

This noble lady should naturally be received by Ling Qingyu, but because of the early arrival of Brother Ye, the reception was not good, and Tang Wanning really said accurately, and couldn't help but apologize: "It's mine, it's not me, I neglected your sisters, I will punish myself for three cups first, and I hope you sisters will forgive me." As he spoke, he drank two glasses.

When he got the third cup, Jin Yun snatched the wine glass and said: "I drank this third cup for you, I think there must be something important to come to Qingqing, so that's it, we are also very familiar with this garden, who would be so stingy and angry for such a trivial matter." The meaning of this is too obvious, Tang Wu was joking, but now that Jin Yun said it, she seemed to be a little blamed, and her face couldn't help but be a little unhappy.

Qingyu knew that Ah Yun was kind-hearted, but she couldn't see that she had no intention of offending people, so she hurriedly said: "All sisters are generous and kind-hearted people, seeing that I haven't returned for a long time, I don't have to worry about it, is it Qingqing's." ”

As soon as these words came out, Tang Wanning's complexion eased slightly, and Fang said: "You are the best at talking, a small mouth has not eaten us all, no wonder my sister was very happy when she saw you, and recommended to the king that you should be appointed as a female master to teach Gongzi Qi." ”

When the noble girl who was close to heard that the Ling family had actually leaned close to the most favored Mrs. Rong and had blue eyes, she couldn't help but throw her eyes over to this side, and her ears were pricked up, "Sister Ling is so capable, let's talk about teaching the six arts, or the four arts?" Wang Zhiyue couldn't help but be curious, although the rank of the female master is not high, but because of the teaching of the princesses and princesses in the palace, it is a supreme affirmation of women's virtue and art, but any woman who can serve as a female master is probably the first choice for the wife of the concubine of a noble family.

Ling Qingyu smiled slightly, and said coquettishly: "It's that Sister Tang likes to bury people, and if you can't pass Mrs. Ge's assessment, you won't be able to do this girl Qingqing will be ashamed!" Sister Wang too, what do you say about the six arts, the six arts of etiquette, music, archery, royal, calligraphy, and mathematics can know a little bit about the fur is not vulgar is thank God, the four arts, chess, calligraphy and painting can still be on the table, and the rest are all ignorant, which can compare to the sisters from a famous family, Lan Xinhui, good at the four arts and six arts. ”

These words are very decent, you must know that the six arts and four arts are the courses that the children of famous families must learn, and it is the most direct and only standard to measure the virtue and art of Miss Childe, but anyone who has a shot is to earn face for his family, if he is not good at this, he will be laughed at and spurned by the aristocratic family, and the basic career of men is hopeless, and women cannot marry into decent families, let alone climb to that prestigious family. On the contrary, women who are good at the six arts and four arts are the objects of famous families competing to marry no matter what their appearance is, so everyone is very comfortable listening to the compliments in this regard.

Everyone thinks that this Ling is exquisite, and he is very modest and has a good impression, only Qingtan Moyu knows that his master told the truth this time, whether it is the six arts or the four arts, Miss has basically no fate with playing the piano at the level of a music idiot, but Miss's talent is not here, if you talk about the art of war and strategy, Qimen Dunjia, who can compare.

After a while, Ling Yixuan, as the head of the family, opened the banquet and said some polite words with his wife, thanked all the sons and ladies for their faces, and after raising a toast, he poured a Gu Jue (similar to the kind of goblet in the Warring States Period) and put it into the music pool with the lotus seat, and the drum music started. This song of water flow banquet is an elegant feast, put a jue wine inside, with the water turning, when the drum stops the wine glass in front of whom, you need to draw the bamboo slips on the lotus seat, according to the requirements on the bamboo piece or guess the riddle, or write a poem, or play a song, or dance a set of swords, if it can not be completed, then drink the wine in the cup to pass.

The cup is three times the size of an ordinary wine glass, and it is filled with strong wine, and today is a great opportunity to show your talent, most of the competitions at the banquet of the aristocratic family are closely related to the family, and no one wants to lose face and drink again unless it is absolutely necessary.

Ling Qingyu held her chin with her hand, saw the narrow eyes handed over by her mother, and knew that she had been calculated again, what was the number of etiquette to invite famous families, she knew that it was not good for her mother, who had never ignored etiquette, to have abnormal behavior, and it was another blind date banquet, how eager her mother was to marry her off! However, it is better than King Tianxuan, at least you can see which of these young masters are straw bales and which ones still have some ink in their stomachs.

I don't know why she suddenly looked forward to Zhongsun Limo's performance, I don't know how many things this black-bellied guy can do, thinking about it, I can't help but look for him, but I didn't see it, hey, obviously she was still there when she left with Qingtan Moyu, didn't there be something important to go first?

At this time, Zhongsun Limo sat generously in the courtyard of the wing room where Murong Ye was, listening to the faint sound of drum music and pretending to be intoxicated, Murong Ye looked at this uninvited guest, a little surprised, I don't know if this person is lost or what's wrong, he said coldly: "If this prince wants to go to the banquet and go forward, if you can't find the way, I will call the maid to lead the way for you." ”

"My son never gets lost, I just came to find your son at night." To tell the truth, Zhongsun felt inappropriate when he said it, he had always been calm, and he was a little upset by vinegar at this time, recalling that Xiao Qingqing and this son were inseparable from each other, so he especially wanted to find someone to fight and fight.

"Oh? Is it? That will not be entertained, please return! "Murong Ye's temperament is very cold, he is used to seeing the impermanence of life and death, and has experienced the ups and downs of life, except for the Xiao Qiling family, nothing can attract his attention.

"Childe's night shelf is quite big, but I don't know if there is also this wonderful medicine immortal score in front of Xiao Qingqing." Zhongsun Limo teased lightly, took out the handkerchief that Ling Qingyu bandaged him when he fell off the horse, and shook it unintentionally.
