Chapter 26: The Troubles of the Melon Farmers (1)
After Feng Yunling returned to Wutong Garden, she put what she had just done behind and locked Xiaojuan out of the wing, while she entered her research room space and began to tinker with all kinds of things until dinner.
In the afternoon of the next day, the two carriages of the Prime Minister's Mansion slowly drove out, and the place where they went was naturally the mansion of the five princes.
The invitation said that it was an afternoon pearl viewing meeting and dinner, so it had to be over in the afternoon.
Feng Yunling originally didn't mind inviting the moon and Feng Zhaodi to take a carriage, but Gu Wanqing asked Feng Yunling and her two sisters to sit in the carriage separately on the grounds that there were too many people and the carriage was too crowded.
On the carriage, Xiaojuan looked at Feng Yunling, who was holding a scroll, and said, "Miss, aren't you angry?" ”
"What are you angry about? Isn't my mother afraid that I will be in the same car with Ying Yue and Zhao Di, which will affect their reputation? It's good to save the ears from being clean. Feng Yunling smiled and shook his head.
Xiaojuan said angrily: "It's all masters, why do you have to participate in the pearl appreciation conference?" ”
"Xiaojuan, my father is afraid that I will be autistic, so I must participate, only if everyone laughs at it enough, and the jokes are enough, will I let it go, I know?" The corners of Fengyunling's mouth hooked up a sneer.
In this society, a woman's name is particularly important, not to mention that she, a tigress who is anti-human and sets a precedent for Hugh, must let everyone see enough before she can be surprised.
It's really nothing to her, just say it if you want to, anyway, she doesn't feel pain, she just feels sorry for her old father.
But she knew it was going to be a bad day.
"Miss, but, are you really not afraid?" Xiaojuan said timidly.
"Afraid of what? Since the fifth prince invited me, it means that he agrees with my husband, which is equivalent to an unmarried woman, why should I look down on myself? Feng Yunling really has a good impression of this fifth prince, but he didn't expect that there would be her in the invitation he sent.
"Yes, what do these five princes mean?" Xiaojuan also didn't quite understand.
"Don't you know if you go?" Feng Yunling said with a smile, and at the same time opened the curtain of the small window and looked at the street outside.
Not long after, Feng Yunling asked the coachman to stop, and then he was about to get out of the car.
"Miss, why do you have to park yet?" Xiao Juan was surprised.
"What's the hurry, important people are the last to appear, not to mention I want to buy something." Then he got out of the car and started shopping, and the carriage followed slowly behind.
Feng Yunling walked around the street for half an hour and bought countless things, some of which were sent back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and some of them quietly put them into their own space while Xiaojuan was not paying attention.
At this moment, all kinds of luxurious carriages are parked at the door of the Five Princes' Mansion, and all the coachmen and servants are in Kandashan, which is more lively than the streets.
In the house, the young ladies and young masters of the entire capital who were invited to the city were all dressed in brocade and gorgeous clothes, and they appeared one after another.
The mansion of the Five Princes is the most luxurious of all the princes, after all, among the princes, the Five Princes are the richest men, and there are countless shops under his hands, and the business has been done in neighboring countries.
In the huge central courtyard, all kinds of precious flowers are still in full bloom in the cold days of October and autumn, and all kinds of pine and cypress potted plants are covered with green, which is beautiful.
And in the middle, there have been more than a dozen white jade round tables, on which are placed all kinds of delicate snacks, and there is more good tea to entertain everyone, the fragrance of tea is overflowing, and the fragrance of flowers is fragrant, so that the smiles on everyone's faces are even brighter.
Whoever comes in with an invitation, the little guy will call out his name, so that everyone can get to know each other, the five princes of the master's family have not yet come out, but several of his friends in the capital have already helped him entertain everyone.
"Jiang Yunge, the fourth lady of the General's Mansion, has arrived." The shouts of the little guys at the entrance of the courtyard sounded, and everyone turned their heads to look over.
I saw a delicate woman wearing a long rose-red dress with beads on her head, supported by a tall slave and maid.
Many men and women in the courtyard stood up and saluted Jiang Yunge, after all, there was no one here whose status was higher than that of this young lady from the General's Mansion.
"Miss Jiang, please sit here." A slave led the way for Jiang Yunge and sat down at a round table where no one had yet taken a seat.
Jiang Yunge nodded and smiled at some people, while others put away their smiles, revealing a cold color, looking like they were high and up.
"Is there anyone else who hasn't arrived? What about the five princes? As soon as Jiang Yunge sat down, he asked the slave who poured the tea.
The slave said: "Back to Miss Jiang, the fifth prince is still preparing things, and he will come soon, and the three young ladies of the Feng family have not arrived yet?" ”
"Feng family? Three young ladies? In addition to Feng Yingyue and Feng Zhaodi, where else did the Feng family come from? Jiang Yunge's mind turned and he looked at the maid angrily.
The slave hurriedly said: "Miss Jiang, the Feng family and Miss Fengyunling, the prince also invited her." ”
"What! That slut was also invited? What do the five princes think! Jiang Yunge's eyes widened in disbelief.
Originally, there were still people chatting in the courtyard in a whisper, but as soon as Jiang Yunge said this, there was no sound all of a sudden, and it was a little embarrassing.
"What's wrong? Am I wrong, that kind of slut has already been married, how can he still be considered a miss? You don't dare to say it, I'm telling the truth, Zeng Yan, don't you think so? Jiang Yunge named was the little daughter of the military department, one of the three women sitting at the table next to her.
The Lord of the War Department and the General originally belonged to the same system, so the two ladies naturally knew each other well.
"Ahem, ahem, Yunge, there are so many people, don't talk about this, since the fifth prince invited Fengyunling, let's give some face." Zeng Yan said softly to Jiang Yunge.
Jiang Yunge sneered: "What kind of face to give, she herself is shameless, give her back face, I have never seen such a shameless slut, she actually slandered the prince like that, she deserves to be beaten." ”
Everyone was full of black lines, and they looked away in embarrassment, who didn't know that Jiang Yunge's favorite was Chu Yanwei, and now that Wang Ye was said to be like that by Feng Yunling, he naturally hated Feng Yunling to death.
"Miss Jiang is right, how can a woman be as shameless as Feng Yunling! actually dared to leave his husband, this time the prince was really unlucky. A young woman in a pink skirt next to Zeng Yan said, her name is Zhang Yue, and she is the concubine of the Ministry of Industry.
Jiang Yunge glanced at her, and then smiled: "Miss Zhang is right, how can such a shameless woman come to the banquet with us, doesn't this lower our status?" I really don't know what the fifth prince thinks. ”
Zeng Yan sneered: "Yunge, you be quiet, it's not good to be heard by the fifth prince." ”
Jiang Yunge looked at the door, then flattened his mouth, and Zhang Yue got up from his seat, came to Jiang Yunge's side with a smile and bent over, "Did Miss Jiang hear about that prophecy?" ”
Everyone suddenly became interested, and someone hurriedly pinched his throat and said, "What Miss Zhang said is about Fengxing?" ”.
