There were only three seats for the luncheon, which was set up in the dining room.

The huge dining room was separated by a screen, and the prince and Gu Xinian sat alone. The two seats on the women's side are also exquisite. With Mo's presence, Shen Qiuyu naturally did not have the qualifications to sit on the table, so he could only sit beside Mo's side. Noble ladies of higher status, such as Wang and Ma, all sat at the same table.

Ye Qinglan and Gu Xiyu sat in the other seat, and at the same table were Feng Shi, who had made provocative remarks before.

Feng quickly recovered from the blow just now, and talked to the women at the same table with a smile, intentionally or unintentionally snubbing Ye Qinglan and Gu Xiyu. Unexpectedly, such a move was exactly what the two wanted.

Gu Xiyu whispered to Ye Qinglan: "Where did you get such a good jadeite?" ”

Ye Qinglan laughed in a low voice: "It was given to me by my grandmother." "Fortunately, the Jiang family gave generously and impulsively, otherwise it would be really difficult to pass today's hurdle......

Gu Xiyu thought for a while and said, "I always feel that there will be something going on today, you should be careful." ”

Ye Qinglan smiled and nodded. Shen Qiuyu's desire to find fault was clearly revealed, even the simple Gu Xiyu could see it, and it was estimated that the noblewomen present also knew it. However, in front of everyone, Shen Qiuyu can do a limited thing, at most she secretly ridicules a few words, starting from her weaknesses, making her embarrassed.

The birthday gift is the first level, what will be the second level?

The answer will soon be revealed!

After the luncheon, Shen Qiuyu said with a smile: "Please also go to the garden to sit for a while, I asked people to prepare fresh fruit refreshments, and the singers and dancers in the house sang and danced to help the fun." "This kind of entertainment is obviously more than a step higher than inviting an opera troupe to sing.

Everyone gladly agreed.

Ye Qinglan smiled silently. Leisurely follow behind everyone. She thought, she had already guessed what Shen Qiuyu was going to do next......

Shen Qiuyu really ordered someone to arrange the location near the lotus pond.

There are about six or seven people seated in the exquisite gazebo. Outside the gazebo, several tables and chairs were set up, and the tables were filled with tea, snacks, and fresh melons and fruits. A thick white blanket was laid on the open space outside the lotus pond. It is reserved for singing and dancing performances, similar to a stage. However, this stage is a little too extravagant. Basically, if you use it once, you have to throw it away, and you can't use it a second time.

Ye Qinglan picked the farthest position from the pavilion and sat down, and Gu Xiyu followed suit and sat with Ye Qinglan. Naturally, they distanced themselves from those noble ladies, and the two of them whispered and laughed happily, forming a small world of their own.

The crown prince and Gu Xinian came side by side, and the prince entered the pavilion and sat down in the best position. Gu Xinian didn't follow into the pavilion. Instead, he walked to Gu Xiyu Ye Qinglan's side, and sat down calmly under the curious eyes of everyone.

Shen Qiuyu smiled and couldn't help but purse the corners of her lips.

……

The prince coughed and laughed: "Cousin, let's come and sit in the pavilion!" It's clearer to see the singing and dancing here. ”

Gu Xinian smiled faintly: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness, I can sit here just in time to accompany Yu'er and Cousin Lan." ”

He said it so frankly that the prince couldn't say anything more, so he stopped laughing. Shen Qiuyu heard someone on the side laugh in a low voice: "Gu Shilang really pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade." That Ye Shi girl is really a blessing. ”

Shen Qiuyu's smile did not decrease, but the hand shrunk in the sleeve was clenched into a fist, and the long nails were deeply pinched into the palm, stinging for a while. But such a sting. But it was far less than the sharp pain in her heart that almost overwhelmed her.

She didn't want to believe that the boy who had sworn to love her forever for the rest of his life really fell in love with another woman.

No, it must not be so! The person he likes is obviously himself. Acting like this in front of everyone is just acting. The purpose is to let her taste this heartache too. It must be so!

Shen Qiuyu took a deep breath and calmed down. Showing an elegant and gentle smile: "Your Highness, the song and dance can begin!" The concubines can't wait to see the singing and dancing that His Royal Highness specially ordered them to arrange for the concubines! "It's not too loud, it's just enough for everyone present to hear it.

Mo secretly sneered.

Shen Qiuyu relied on that face and some tricks to confuse men, and the prince was almost dizzy. It's just an ordinary birthday, not to mention the birthday banquet specially held for her, and the singers and dancers in the house rehearsed the songs and dances in advance.

But what can this be?

No matter how beautiful the skin is, there will be a day when the red face declines. The prince loves Shen Qiuyu again, and he doesn't refuse other beauties to come, and they are accepted into the mansion one after another? Let Shen Qiuyu be proud for the time being, there will always be a day when she can't cry in the future......

The sound of silk and bamboo music sounded, and two rows of dancers wearing dance costumes came on the stage lightly, the dancers were light, and the colorful dance clothes were spinning non-stop, which was pleasing to the eye. With the rhythm of the sound of silk and bamboo, another singer in a crimson dress came on the stage, her red lips were lightly opened, and her tactful singing voice like a warbler came to everyone's ears.

Enjoying singing and dancing up close is indeed a rare and new experience. Ye Qinglan admired it intently. Gu someone, who was left out in the cold, was not very happy, and glanced at her lightly.

Ye Qinglan didn't react, and even discussed it with Gu Xiyu in a low voice with great interest.

Gu Xinian coughed again.

Ye Qinglan finally noticed it this time, and looked over with concern: "Cousin Gu, what's wrong?" Is it a cold? ”

Gu Xinian glanced at her with a smile: "Cousin Lan is really as wise as a torch." "This girl is pretending to make him angry again.

Ye Qinglan couldn't help but be secretly happy, but her face was serious: "Since Cousin Gu is uncomfortable, then go and talk to His Royal Highness the Prince, and retire first." ”

Gu Xinian smiled leisurely: "Forget it!" I'm worried that if I do leave, someone will suffer. ”

Ye Qinglan raised her delicate eyebrows, and her words were full of confidence: "This won't be." You still worry about the person who wants to find fault with others, don't provoke, but you are angry and hurtful! ”

Gu Xinian smiled dumbly, and his expression naturally relaxed.

Gu Xiyu thought about it seriously, and then humbly asked for advice: "Big brother, are you and Cousin Lan like this, are they considered flirting?" ”

Gu Xinian: "......"

Ye Qinglan bit her lip, her eyes full of smiles.

Fortunately, the voices of singing and dancing were loud in unison, and they deliberately lowered their voices when they spoke. Even the people sitting at the next table couldn't hear what they were saying, let alone the people in the gazebo.

But several people in the pavilion were not focused on singing and dancing, but were paying attention to the actions of the three of them.

Mo Shi smiled and said to the prince: "Your Highness, you see, Cousin and Cousin Lan get along really well, and the two are really a suitable pair." ”

The crown prince was most happy to hear these words, and when he heard this, he grinned and said, "Yes, when the queen mother points out the marriage for the two of them, we can wait to drink the wedding wine." ”

Mo Shi deliberately looked at Shen Qiuyu again: "Why didn't Concubine Shen speak, aren't you happy that the two of them have lovers and finally become married?" ”

The prince also looked at it with a smile.

Shen Qiuyu smiled slightly: "The concubine is naturally happy, and she is thinking about what congratulatory gifts to give if Cousin Gu and Cousin Lan make a family appointment!" ”

The crown prince was extremely satisfied with her reaction, and immediately generously promised: "I should send this congratulatory gift, where can Yu'er break the bank." ”

Shen Qiuyu pursed her lips and chuckled, her eyes fluttering: "Then the concubine will not rob His Highness." After a pause, he said almost coquettishly: "Didn't Your Highness say that you would personally play a song to celebrate the concubine's birthday?" Your Highness can't be dishonest. ”

The prince laughed loudly: "How can you forget this, come here, take the flute!" "The prince is good at, but since he became an adult, he has rarely shown his flute skills in front of people.

Seeing that the prince really planned to give a for Shen Qiuyu in public, Mo Shi was jealous and hateful in his heart, but he pressed it down quietly on his face.

After the song and dance were finished, the prince walked out of the pavilion with the flute, stood still in the middle of the blanket, and then lifted the flute to his lips and played it leisurely.

……

The women were surprised, and their gazes at Shen Qiuyu immediately became subtle. Mixed with a deep envy and a hint of can't be spoken.

Shen Qiuyu enjoyed this kind of gaze very much, especially the jealous eyes from Mo Leng Ran and Concubine Lin made her even more pleasant, and the smile on her lips deepened.

Ye Qinglan saw that Shen Qiuyu was in the limelight again, and couldn't help but sigh: "The prince really loves Concubine Shen. "I really didn't expect the prince to have such an excellent flute art, I really underestimated him before.

Gu Xinian pulled the corners of his lips with a smile, and glanced at Ye Qinglan: "Are you trying or hinting?" "Anyway, Gu Xiyu knows everything she should know, and there is no need to shy away from speaking.

Ye Qinglan blinked innocently: "I just said it casually, neither tempted nor hinted." What are you doing with such a fierce reaction, is it possible that you are ready to perform a song later? ”

The faint sourness in his words made Gu Xinian feel better, but he smiled and said nothing. If the expected is correct, Shen Qiuyu will definitely make a move later. With Ye Qinglan's three-legged cat's piano skills, performing in front of everyone is tantamount to making a fool of himself. He's ready to save the scene at any time......

At the end of a melodious flute song, the audience suddenly burst into applause and praise.

Shen Qiuyu got up, walked in front of the prince from the pavilion in person, and smiled slightly: "The concubine has thanked His Royal Highness for his kindness, and I will never forget each other in this life." ”

The beauty is affectionate, gentle and affectionate, how can the prince not be moved, and he actually held Shen Qiuyu's hand in front of everyone: "Yu'er, I will not live up to you." ”

Mo Shi and Concubine Lin couldn't laugh anymore.

What is the difference between Shen Qiuyu's actions and slapping the two of them in the face in public?

Shen Qiuyu's eyes were full of anticipation, and she naturally looked at Ye Qinglan-
