Time always slips away inadvertently, but in the blink of an eye, early summer has quietly come, and several days have passed since the emperor's last banquet, and the eldest princess's birthday is approaching.

Every year on the eldest princess's birthday, all the dignitaries and nobles, all those who are unmarried with daughters will start to dress up their children early, because every year the eldest princess's birthday is like a blind date banquet for them.

There were originally four masters in Yanfu, although none of the four masters had ever accepted concubines, but this daughter was not a few.

Mrs. Yan is the most competitive person in Yanfu, and gave birth to a son and two daughters for Master Yan, respectively, the eldest son Yan Ruijing, although he is now a friend of the prince, he has been training in the rivers and lakes, and he is also the heir to the throne of Yanfu, the fourth daughter Yan Zixi, has been waiting to be married, and the fifth daughter Yan Zilan married the third prince of the dynasty and is the third princess.

Mrs. Yan only has a son and a daughter under her knees, and her son is second in the house, called Yan Ruiting, who is the master of the dynasty, and his wife is the emperor's fourth daughter Xuanyuan Min, and her daughter is the sixth lady Yan Ziyan.

The third lady has only one son under her knees, that is, the third young master Yan Ruiping, as early as when the third young master turned fifteen years old, the third master sent him to the fourth master's military camp for training, and rarely came back.

As for Mrs. Yan, she died shortly after giving birth to the eighth lady Yan Xiyao, and the fourth lady Yan never remarried because he loved his wife deeply.

So today's Yanfu is particularly busy, because of the return of Miss Seven and Miss Eight this year, there are a total of four young ladies who have not left the cabinet, in addition to the seventh Miss Yan Xiruo who just came back, the eighth Miss Yan Xiyao, and the fourth Miss Yan Zixi and the sixth Miss Yan Ziyan.

Compared with Miss Seven and Miss Eight, and even Miss Six, the three of them are almost the same age, not to mention, Miss Yan Zixi's age is a little older, Yan Zixi is already twenty and two this year, but she has never been matched, not that these four young ladies are not good-looking, but when it comes to this look, Yan Zixi is also very beautiful, although she is slightly inferior to the fifth Miss Yan Zilan and the eighth Miss Yan Xiyao, who are the first beauties in the capital, but she is also a rare beauty. Among them, there are many high-ranking officials and nobles, but none of these four young ladies have taken a fancy to them, and they have been delayed until their current age.

In Daliang, most women are married at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and if they are not married by the twenties, they are old girls and will be gossiped about.

Regarding this point, Mrs. Yan is not in a hurry at all, although her daughter is almost the age of an old girl, but because of her beauty, the person who proposes marriage has never been broken, but this Mrs. Yan once said that her daughter either does not marry, or if she wants to marry, she must marry a royal person, preferably a dragon among people.

So today, Mrs. Yan is very attentive, and she dresses her daughter very beautifully, in order to show her face in front of the royal children, and strive to marry the prince and become a concubine, so that she can fly on the branches, and she can also follow the light.

"Xiruo, you see, the eldest aunt's smile today is almost brighter than the flowers in the yard." Yan Xiruo and Yan Xiyao stood at the door of the hall, watching from a distance as the eldest aunt accompanied the fourth sister out slowly. Yan Zixi is really dressed up very seriously today, the beaded flowers on that end feel that her neck hurts, but the makeup is very beautiful, she is already very delicate, and she looks even weaker at this moment.

On the other hand, Yan Xiruo and Yan Xiyao, who were standing at the door of the hall early, were a little too bland.

Yan Xiyao was born a beauty embryo, if it weren't for the fact that she was in the military camp in the early years and was not in the capital, maybe the first beauty in the capital is hers now, so even if she is wearing a very ordinary purple dress, she also wears the feeling of a fairy.

As far as Xiruo, although not as delicate as other Yan sisters, but also a small jasper-like beauty, dressed in white at the moment, her hair is gently pulled up, and a very delicate but very elegant hairpin is inserted on it, plus the corners of her lips that have been smiling, it has a different flavor, just like a lotus flower in early summer, clean and beautiful.

Yan Xiruo stood beside Yan Xiyao and didn't answer her words, just followed her gaze and looked at Yan Zixi, blinking slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Are you going to go on a trip?" Just when Yan Xiyao wanted to shake Yan Xiruo, who had not spoken next to her, a somewhat sharp voice came from beside her.

Yan Xiyao turned around and just saw a ball of colorful things walking towards them, took a closer look, and smiled: "It turned out to be the sixth sister, what are you going to do?" ”

Yan Ziyan glanced at Yan Xiyao, who was smiling, her eyes were full of jealousy, she dressed up so hard, but she couldn't match the smiling girl in front of her, thinking of this, she snorted coldly: "Eighth sister, have you forgotten all about grandma's words, today is the birthday of the eldest princess, you are dressed like this, but you want to humiliate the face of my Yan family?" ”

Yan Xiyao raised her eyebrows disapprovingly, and looked down at what she was wearing: "Of course I know that today is the eldest princess's birthday, besides, there is nothing wrong with us dressing like this, but you, sixth sister, are you going to the birthday banquet, or are you going to let the eldest princess tell you the matchmaker?" ”

If you want to talk about kung fu on the lips, in the entire Yan Mansion, Yan Xiyao dares to admit the second, and absolutely no one dares to admit the first.

"You, Yan Xiyao, don't go too far." Yan Ziyan poked people in the sore spot, and instantly she was like a wild cat with fried hair, her eyes half-squinted: "What are you to dare to talk to me like this?" ”

"You ......"

"Sixth sister." Yan Xiruo grabbed Yan Xiyao, who was a little angry, stepped up to block her, and looked straight at Yan Ziyan: "You have to consider the consequences when you speak, you have the blood of the Yan family like us, and she is also the biological daughter of the fourth uncle, you say that she is not a thing, so what are you, and what are the rest of the Yan family?" Her voice was flat, without any ups and downs, but the coldness in her eyes made Yan Ziyan unable to say a word.

Yan Ziyan suddenly felt a chill rushing up from the soles of her feet, making her whole person feel as if she was in an ice cellar, and she couldn't help but think of the pain that Yan Xiruo held her wrist last time, frowning slightly, she seemed to feel that her already good wrist was starting to hurt again.

"If you say it, you ......"

"What are you all doing here, the carriage has been waiting outside for a long time?" Yan Ziyan wanted to refute a few words, but was interrupted by her father, so she had to look at Yan Xiruo and Yan Xiyao hatefully, and then turned her head and left like a proud peacock.

"Xiruo, what nonsense is Yan'er talking to you?" Second Master Yan walked to Yan Xiruo's side and asked with concern, his own daughter is understood as a father, and her mother has been spoiled since she was a child, and she wants to fight for the best in everything, which is rude and capricious.

"It's nothing, the second uncle doesn't have to worry, the sixth sister also cares about me and Yaoyao, and thinks that we are a little undignified to dress like this, so she kindly reminded us to put it up." Yan Xiruo said with a smile, and pulled Yan Xiyao, who was still unhappy and ready to sue on the side, with one hand.

Yan Xiyao reluctantly rolled her eyes and said, "Yes, the sixth sister cares about us, and I'm afraid that we will lose the face of the Yan family." ”

Yan Xiyao is not like Yan Xiruo, she can always hide her emotions well, she is a very direct person, she will say anything if she has anything, if it weren't for Yan Xiruo's eyes warning her at this moment, she would definitely complain to the second uncle.

"Yan'er's child, she was spoiled by her mother, don't worry about her words, I think you are very good, elegant and temperamental, how can it not match the identity of my family, it is obviously very consistent." The second master patted their heads one by one, just like when they were children, and their eyes were full of pampering.

"It's still the second uncle who has a vision, Xiruo and I were originally just celebrating the eldest princess's birthday, why are we dressed so fancy, right, Xiruo." As he spoke, he shook Yan Xiruo on the side.

Yan Xiruo didn't want to say anything anymore, but just said goodbye to Second Master Yan and pulled Yan Xiyao towards the carriage.

"Xiruo, why didn't you let me sue the second uncle just now, you just heard it, Yan Ziyan is simply too much." As soon as she got into the carriage, Yan Xiyao began to complain.

Fortunately, their carriage was one for the two of them, not together, otherwise, Yan Ziyan would have quarreled again when she heard Yan Xiyao's words.

Yan Xiruo sat on the left side of the carriage, looked at the scene outside the carriage, turned his head to stare at Yan Xiyao, the corners of his mouth were faintly hooked, with a hint of coldness: "If a mad dog bites you, Yaoyao, will you bite back?" ”

"Ang, of course ......not" Yan Xiyao, who was still a little dazed about how to deviate from the topic, instantly widened her eyes and smiled: "I know, Xiruo, you are bad enough." ”

Yan Xi smiled and said nothing, for those who were not important, she didn't think about how much time she had to spend on it, Yan Ziyan was not her opponent in her previous life, and it was impossible to stir up any storms in this life. Yu Qi thought about getting rid of Yan Ziyan, she might as well spend a little time to guard against Yan Zixi, compared to Yan Ziyan, Yan Zixi was worth Yan Xiruo's time.
