Hello everyone, if you think Xiaolan's text is still eye-catching, please raise your precious hand to collect it! Thanks! Boom!

In the pomegranate courtyard, Wu Chengcheng sat in front of the dresser, looking through the bronze mirror at Luping grooming himself.

"Don't want this red flower, bring that gemstone tassel and put it on for me."

Raising his hand to stop Lu Ping from inserting the silk flower between his sideburns, Wu Qingcheng frowned and waved his hand at the dresser.

"Yes, miss."

Lu Ping put down the red silk flower as she said, and instead took out a golden tassel from the dresser, and carefully inserted it into the sideburns for Wu Chengcheng.

"Well, that's good."

Shaking his head at the bronze mirror, Wu Qingcheng nodded with satisfaction.

"Pipa ready?"

"Miss, don't worry, the pipa is ready, the newly made clothes are ironed, and Miss can change into them."

Mother Jia put the prepared cloth bag and pipa on the small step, and then came to Wu Chengcheng's side.

"Miss is going to play the pipa and sing songs this year?"

"Yes, I don't play other instruments very well, not as good as other nobles. As for dancing, that's Wu Tianrou's strength, I just have a good voice, of course, I can't think that my own shortness is longer than his own. ”

Raising his hand and stroking his sideburns, Wu Qingcheng rubbed his body and stood up, and his body moistened by rain and dew had begun to reveal a trace of mature charm. The snow peak on the chest protrudes, showing that the figure is becoming more and more slender, and it is more charming and tempting than the girl's figure of Wu Tingrou.

"This dress is really good-looking, and the young lady will be even more beautiful when she wears it, and she will definitely be able to dominate the crowd at this state banquet."

While stretching the corners of her clothes for Wu Chengcheng, Jia's mother said with a smile.

This dress is pink, with a large peony embroidered with light lines and dark flowers, which is gorgeous and soft, and it is more delicate than flowers.

"I heard that Jin Mingchi, the prince of the gilded country, will also participate in today's state banquet, and will also be friendly with our country, today's state banquet actually has the meaning of choosing a parent, the emperor seems to want to choose one of the noble daughters to be the county lord, and marry Jin Mingchi as a concubine."

Raising his hand to let Lu Ping apply balsam on his hand, Wu Chengcheng had a strange smile on his face.

"What do you mean, Miss?"

Stroking the clothes on Wu Chengcheng's shoulders, Mother Jia stood in front of her and looked at her suspiciously.

"Hasn't Wu Tianrou always said that her dancing skills are superb, if she is selected to marry in harmony this time and marry far away to the Gilded Country, wouldn't it be great! Hehe......"

Covering his mouth and smiling softly, Wu Qingcheng's eyes flashed with a calculating brilliance.

"It seems that for today's state banquet, I have to push my good sister well."

When the time came, all the family members dressed up and came to Mrs. Wu's courtyard and sat in the living room.

Mrs. Wu raised her eyes and glanced at the crowd who were all dressed up, and nodded slightly.

"The time has come, the master and Zixu are already waiting for us outside, let's go. I still say the same thing, today is a state banquet, everyone should pay attention, don't cause trouble and lose face to my Wu family. Got it? ”

Focusing on the concubines Wu Tianhua and Wu Qianqiu, Mrs. Wu was afraid that these two concubines would not be able to get on the stage and cause any trouble.

"Auntie, please rest assured, everyone will be careful when participating in an occasion like a state banquet, and they will never cause trouble."

Without waiting for Wu Tinghua and Wu Tingqiu to speak, Wu Tingcheng stepped forward and said softly.

"Okay, since everyone understands, let's go out, and don't let them wait for a long time."

Nodding, Mrs. Wu beckoned to Wu Tianrou, and the two of them walked out of the small living room and walked outside.

According to the usual practice, officials above the third grade can bring their families and concubines to participate, but the aunt is not qualified to participate in the state banquet, so Aunt Chen and Aunt Qian did not come out.

Because it was almost the New Year, and I was going to attend the state banquet, the main gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was opened today, and the carriage stopped in the mansion and drove out of the Prime Minister's Mansion directly from the mansion.

"It's all ready, then hurry up and get in the car, it's not early, but you can't be late."

Wu Yunyang, who was standing next to the carriage and talking to Wu Zixu, turned his head when he heard the voice and smiled slightly at Mrs. Wu.

"I've been waiting for a long time, I'm ready, and I'm ready to go."

Taking two steps forward, Mrs. Wu stood beside Wu Yunyang with a smile.

Wu Yunyang smiled, stretched out his hand to hold Mrs. Wu's arm, and helped her into the carriage. Nodding to Wu Zixu on the side, Wu Yunyang turned around and also got into the carriage.

Later, Wu Tianrou and Wu Tingcheng got into the second carriage, Wu Tinghua and Wu Tingqiu got into the third carriage, and the last two carriages were sitting on the maids of each room.

"Gone!"

Turning over the horse, Wu Zixu waved his horsewhip and walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion first, and the five carriages behind him lined up and slowly walked in the direction of the palace.

Everyone in Anjing knew that today was the day of the royal state banquet, and many civilians came out to watch, watching the motorcade of officials driving in the direction of the palace, and began to guess who the noble lady who would be able to get the emperor's appreciation this year.

Because he was riding in the city, the carriage couldn't be too fast, and there were many officials who were going in one direction, so from time to time, there would be familiar officials to greet Wu Yunyang.

After walking for half an hour, the carriage arrived outside the palace walls, and everyone got out of their own carriages, boarded the carriage in the palace, and walked towards the palace.

By the time everyone arrived at the main hall where the state banquet was held, another half an hour had passed, and it was almost noon.

Under the leadership of the chamberlain, they came to their respective positions and sat down, and their own palace maids and chamberlains rushed back and forth, serving hot tea, pastries, and fruit plates, so that the officials and family members could cushion their stomachs, because the official state banquet had to begin.

"Sister, let's eat a snack first, the official start time of this banquet is still early, how to start the talent show when you are not full."

picked up a piece of pastry and put it on Wu Qing's plate, Wu Qingcheng looked concerned.

"Thank you, cousin, it's just that I don't like to eat this mung bean cake, so my sister should eat it herself."

With a faint smile, Wu Tingrou pushed the plate in front of Wu Tingcheng, took her plate, and put a piece of plum blossom cake into the plate to eat.

Looking at Wu Tingrou's movements, the corners of Wu Tingcheng's mouth twitched slightly, and then he withdrew the chopsticks in his hand.

Wu Tinghua and Wu Tingqiu, who were sitting in the concubine's seat at the back, watched Wu Tingcheng's movements, and pursed their lips one after another, revealing a trace of contemptuous smile.

Looking at Wu Tingcheng's embarrassed appearance, Wu Tingrou, who lowered her head and tasted the pastry, slightly hooked the corners of her lips.

Wu Qingcheng has always been thoughtful, and he doesn't get up early if he is so diligent today, he must have a plan, how could he not pay more attention to her.
