87_87886 Princess Zhaorong's birthday is just before Chinese New Year's Eve.

Xue Rou had already prepared a gift when she received the invitation.

This time is different from the last plum banquet, because Emperor Zhengde values the eldest princess Zhaorong, the imperial sister, and specially instructed the celebrant to hold a birthday feast for the eldest princess, and also personally rewarded a lot of things and sent them to the eldest princess's mansion.

When Xue Rou went to the eldest princess's mansion, it was not early or late, the eldest princess's mansion was already full of guests, and after she handed over the box containing the gift to the steward, someone led her to the flower hall.

As soon as she stepped into the flower hall, Lin Chuchu, who was not far away, trotted over to her, her round little face was full of joy and excitement, "Sister Rou, I knew you would come too!" ”

Xue Rou pinched Lin Chuchu's face and asked with a smile, "How is your injury?" ”

"It's all right, it's just that my father and mother always tied me up and didn't let me go out of the house, and today I finally took me out to breathe." Lin Chuchu pouted dissatisfiedly.

"Madame and Lord Lin are also worried about you, who wants to pay attention to it if someone else changes?"

The last accident in Xishan really scared Mrs. Lin, not to mention that it can indeed be seen that Lin Xiaolian and his wife really love Lin Chuchu's daughter very much, otherwise they would not be able to pamper Lin Chuchu's innocent and kind character, and I don't know how many people in the mansion who only talk about interests and not family affection are envied by many people in the mansion who only talk about interests and not family affection.

Xue Rou and Lin Chuchu were talking, and while glancing at the hall, they found that there were a lot of people who came today, and in the corner, she also saw the Yang family's mother and daughter, and the Sun family on the Xue family's side also led several daughters.

She was not surprised that these people could still come to the eldest princess's banquet, but when she looked at Xue Suwan, Xue Yunrong, and Sun Yueru's eyes that were eager to swallow her, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked up a sarcastic smile, Sun Yueru suddenly blushed with anger and wanted to come over, but Xue Suwan and Yang were dragging her to death, and the two of them stared at Xue Rou with warnings.

Seeing that Sun Yueru was pulled by the two, Xue Rou pursed her lips a little boredly and wanted to look away, but she didn't want a beautiful woman standing next to Xue Suwan to suddenly smile at her, Xue Rou was stunned when she saw it, and nodded at her with a smile after a while, and then withdrew her gaze.

If she is not mistaken, the woman who showed her favor is Xue Jiahui in the second room of the Xue family, right?

Qin Baiya, who was greeting guests in the distance, walked over when she saw Xue Rou and said with a smile: "I'll just say why Chu Chu has been looking out unwillingly before, it turns out that he was waiting for you." ”

"County Lord." Xue Rou smiled and blessed the blessing.

"Don't call me the county lord, just call me Bai Ya or Ya'er."

Xue Rou also liked Qin Baiya's ease and ease, and said kindly: "Bai Ya, why didn't you accompany the eldest princess?" ”

"My aunt is busy with her affairs, and I have nothing to do when I'm idle, so I came over with Mama Nie to entertain the guests." Qin Baiya said with a smile.

Xue Rou nodded clearly, Qin Baiya talked to Xue Rou a few more words, and after taking her and Lin Chuchu to find a place, she went to greet other guests, in the process, no matter who she was talking to, she had just the right smile on her face, perfect as if she had practiced countless times.

"Sister Bai Ya is so pitiful." Lin Chuchu said suddenly: "She actually didn't like to laugh before, at that time her temper was worse than stability, and she often carried a whip to fight with those sons and brothers in Beijing, but since King Fan lost the battle that year and was reprimanded by His Majesty to go to Yanshan Pass, the status of the county king's mansion in Beijing has been worse day by day, and Sister Bai Ya has become what she is now since then." ”

"You don't like her now?" Xue Rou asked lightly.

Lin Chuchu shook his head, "She looks like she is wearing a mask, and I don't think she's smiling happily at all." ”

Xue Rou pursed her lips and sent people under the fence, she was originally the respect of the county lord, but she had to rely on the eldest princess's residual power to maintain the dignity of the county lord, it was strange that Qin Baiya could smile sincerely.

Seeing Lin Chuchu's face full of distress, Xue Rou rubbed her head, "Don't think nonsense, what birthday gift did your mansion give to the eldest princess today?" ”

Lin Chuchu's mind came and went quickly, and when Xue Rou casually interrupted her, she forgot about her unhappiness just now, and instead pulled her to talk about the birthday gift they prepared for the eldest princess, and the Lin couple on the other side saw that their daughter and Xue Rou were happy, and they also shook their heads and simply followed her.

After a while, a voice came from outside the flower hall.

"Eldest Princess Zhaorong has arrived! The second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince have arrived! ”

The people in the flower hall hurriedly silenced and saluted the few people who walked in outside the hall.

"Get up."

The eldest princess of Zhaorong combed her wishful high bun today, with a Lishui pearl gold swaying obliquely inserted on the top of her head, and a dark flower filament pleated satin skirt with smoke and purple showed that her whole person was extraordinarily luxurious, her Danfeng eyes swept the people below, and a smile appeared on her well-maintained face, "Today, I bother you to congratulate this palace on your birthday, this palace is really happy, you can do it without restraint at will." ”

The crowd didn't even dare to say it.

The eldest princess of Zhaorong smiled and walked up to the empty seat above, while the three princes and the county lord of Anding also followed closely and sat down one after another.

After the third prince and the fifth prince sat down, they whispered to each other, and it seemed that the relationship was very good, while the second prince just sat quietly on the side, looking very old.

After the eldest princess of Zhaorong said and laughed casually, congratulatory words rang out in the hall, and the cups and lamps alternated for a while.

Xue Rou was playing with the wine glass in her hand and whispering to Lin Chuchu on the side, but she didn't want to At this moment, there was another announcement outside the hall.

"The Thirteen Princes of Southern Chu have arrived!"

The eldest princess of Zhaorong looked out of the hall in surprise, and the hall suddenly became quiet, everyone looked up and saw Rong Jing, who was wearing a signature ink-colored gown, shaking a fan and a lazy smile on his face, walked in from outside.

Rong Jing walked in front of everyone without squinting, and smiled slightly ruffianly at the eldest princess of Zhaorong: "Eldest princess's birthday, thirteen came uninvited, don't be surprised by the princess." ”

The eldest princess of Zhaorong obviously knows Rong Jing's temper, and over the years, the prince of Southern Chu who has stayed in the capital as a proton has caused a lot of trouble, but Emperor Zhengde has never reprimanded him, and even took care of him everywhere, and whenever there is a banquet in the palace, Rong Jing must be invited to participate. Princess Zhaorong knew very well in her heart that as long as Nan Chu and Da Zhou did not really tear their faces one day, this Rong Jing could not be lazy on the surface.

She smiled and said to Rong Jing: "Where did the thirteen princes say, you can come to the palace for a birthday feast, it's too late for the palace to be happy, how can you be strange?" ”

"That's good, Thirteen is afraid of disturbing your interest."

There was laughter all around.

Rong Jing glanced at the people in the palace with a faint smile, and then presented the birthday gift, and then without waiting for the arrangement of the people in the eldest princess's mansion, he found an open place to sit down, and what made Xue Rou quite a headache was that the place Rong Jing chose was directly opposite her, and she clearly saw that when Rong Thirteen sat down, the pair of peach blossom eyes that were more beautiful than a woman winked at her.

Xue Rou twitched the corners of her mouth speechlessly, and turned her head away from looking at him.

But she didn't expect her to turn her head sideways, but her eyes met Ming Jiufang, who was wearing an ochre-colored gold brocade robe not far away.

Ming Jiufang noticed Xue Rou's gaze and smiled at her gently, but after another man in an antique satin shirt sitting next to him glanced at her lightly, he wanted to say something, but after hearing the eldest princess say that she had invited Shui Linglong to dance, she immediately fell on the stunning woman who walked in from outside.
