There are many rules in the palace, and men and women are not seated. Today is Concubine Ji Xian's birthday, and it is inconvenient for King Qin to accompany Concubine Ji Xian to dine together, but with Chen Yuanzhao, the king of Chu, and others.

The dining room of Changle Palace is very spacious, with more than three seats.

Xiao Zou, as Concubine Ji Xian's sister-in-law, was fortunate to have a seat with Concubine Ji Xian, and the concubines in the palace had clear hierarchies, and only those with higher ranks were qualified to sit at the same table with Concubine Ji Xian, and those with lower ranks spontaneously sat at another seat.

Xu Jinyu and Ji Yu Ji Yu sat in the third seat with Princess An Ning.

Soon, the delicacies were presented.

The dishes are made delicately and deliciously. However, Xu Jinyu didn't eat much, only ate a few bites, and then put down the chopsticks. The same goes for Ji Yu and Ji Yu.

Going to a banquet in the palace, eating too much or eating ugly is extremely rude.

Fortunately, she had prepared well before she came, and she had a full breakfast, which was enough to last until she left the palace and returned home.

After lunch, everyone returned to the main hall with Concubine Ji Xian.

The musicians in the palace played the piano and played the sheng music, and the beautiful dancing girls danced.

Princess An Ning and Ji Yu sat in front, and Xu Jinyu and Ji Yu sat together. She seemed to be concentrating on the singing and dancing, but the corner of her eye kept paying attention to the direction of the entrance of the hall.

waited and waited, but Xu Zheng and others were never seen.

In the sound of silk and bamboo music, Princess An Ning and Ji Yu chatted in a low voice.

Ji Yu was depressed for a long time, and finally had a chance to speak at this time, where could she bear it. I didn't care about any awkwardness with Xu Jinyu, so I got to Xu Jinyu and whispered: "I stood for a long time today, and I didn't dare to say a word, I knew it was so tiring, so I didn't want to enter the palace." ”

There is music to cover it, and the sound is low, but there is no need to be afraid of being heard.

Xu Jinyu's heart moved, and she followed Ji Yu's words and said: "I didn't want to enter the palace originally, but in the end, it was my aunt's kindness, and I was really embarrassed to disobey my aunt's kindness." I had to come along. ”

Ji Yu didn't take precautions, and naturally told the truth: "Actually, the matter of your entry into the palace was mentioned by the eldest brother." ”

It turned out to be Kizawa?!

Xu Jinyu's expression remained unchanged, but her heart sank.

Ji Zeti yì let their brother and sister follow him into the palace together, and he definitely didn't have any good intentions. Ji Ze Xiao Zou has secretly planned and calculated her like in his previous life. It shouldn't be her idea to enter the palace this time

Thinking about it this way, the only person he wants to calculate is Xu Zheng!

In his previous life, Xu Zheng was admitted to Tanhua, and he was supposed to serve in the Hanlin Academy, and the future is bright and smooth. But Xu Zheng was willingly used by Ji Ze for her and became a pawn that Ji Ze placed next to King Qin.

Today is Concubine Ji Xian's birthday, and King Qin will inevitably appear. Ji Ze can logically introduce Xu Zheng to the King of Qin, and he will always come when he knows what should come. I can hide from the mourning hall, but I can't hide from today's meeting.

However, as long as you don't become a party of King Qin, you don't have to be afraid if you only know King Qin. After I go back today, I have to find a chance to communicate with my brother

Xu Jinyu was secretly thinking in her heart, she was not in the mood to listen to Ji Yu's chatter.

Ji Yu didn't know what to say to Princess An Ning, Princess An Ning's eyes lit up, and she turned to look at Xu Jinyu: "Is what Cousin Yu said true?" How can you embroider on both sides? ”

Xu Jinyu calmed down and responded with a smile: "Yes." ”

Princess An Ning said with great interest: "Cousin, have you brought a veil with you?" Hurry up and show it to me. ”

Ji Yu smiled and took out the handkerchief.

Princess An Ning looked at it over and over for a moment, and praised with a smile: "This handkerchief is really delicate and beautiful. The most rare thing is that there are different patterns embroidered on both sides, which looks really chic. ”

Double-sided embroidery is a treasure in embroidery, generally made into a table screen or ornaments to enjoy, like this embroidered into a handkerchief for daily use, inevitably a little luxurious.

The more Princess An Ning looked at it, the more she liked it, and she looked up at Xu Jinyu and smiled sweetly: "Jinniang, you also embroider a veil for me!" ”

No matter how easy-going she looks on the outside, she still has the nobility and arrogance of a princess in her bones. It is natural to ask for it, as if it is a gift to Xu Jinyu - well, the truth is similar.

For the boudoir girls, exchanging small gifts is the first step in communion. Princess An Ning is willing to make a noble friendship, Xu Jinyu can only be happy, and there is no way to refuse.

"Her Royal Highness the princess likes it, it's Jinniang's blessing." Xu Jinyu showed an appropriate surprise: "I don't know what kind of pattern Her Royal Highness the princess likes?" ”

Princess An Ning thought for a while and smiled: "Embroider some bamboo!" ”

Bamboo?

Xu Jinyu was stunned.

"What's wrong?" Princess An Ning was keenly aware of Xu Jinyu's strange appearance for a moment: "Is it too troublesome to embroider bamboo?" ”

Xu Jinyu came back to her senses and smiled a little apologetically: "It's not. It's just that my eldest brother likes bamboo the most, and I often embroider some bamboo on the handkerchief for him. It would be rude to embroider the same pattern and give it to Her Royal Highness. ”

The faux pas is secondary. What's more, this is easy to cause subtle misunderstandings.

Their brother and sister have never planned to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, so it is better to be cautious.

What a coincidence! It turns out that Xu Zheng also likes bamboo.

Princess An Ning's mind quickly flashed over a handsome and good-looking face, and there was an inexplicable fever behind her ears, so she pretended to say calmly: "There are so many people in the world who love bamboo, your brother likes bamboo, and the handkerchief he uses is embroidered with bamboo patterns, can't others use it?" ”

Xu Jinyu was rarely dumbfounded.

Anyway, since Princess An Ning doesn't mind herself, she has nothing to care about. She has already said what she should say, even if there is a misunderstanding in the future, it is no wonder that their brother and sister are unknown.

Xu Jinyu smiled and said, "Since Her Royal Highness the princess likes it, Jinniang will embroider bamboo." ”

"Don't be in a hurry," Princess An Ning was quite understanding: "Half a month should be enough." ”

Xu Jinyu responded with a smile.

Large embroidery is the most laborious and time-consuming, like this small embroidery, half a month is enough.

As for what to do after embroidering the veil, Princess An Ning didn't mention it, and Xu Jinyu didn't ask much.

With the dignity of a princess, she will never run to the Marquis of Weining's mansion for a handkerchief. Nine times out of ten, they will send someone to the Hou Mansion to get it.

Ji Yu saw the speculation between Princess An Ning and Xu Jinyu chatting, and her heart burst into sourness.

She is the cousin of Princess Anning! But Princess An Ning ignored her coldly and indifferently, and looked at Xu Jinyu differently. It's so infuriating!

After about half an hour, the figure of King Qin and his party finally appeared at the door.

Xu Jinyu looked intently.

King Qin was flanked by Ji Ze, and Xu Zheng followed behind Ji Ze. King Chu and Chen Yuanzhao were nowhere to be found

King Qin and his entourage entered the main hall, and the singing and dancing immediately stopped.

Concubine Ji Xian personally got up to greet her, and as soon as she took a few steps closer, she frowned slightly and said, "It's so heavy that you can smell it from such a distance." How do you drink so much alcohol? ”

King Qin laughed loudly: "Today is the birthday of the concubine, and as soon as the son was happy in his heart, he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses. ”

Not only King Qin, but Ji Ze and Xu Zheng on the side obviously drank a lot.

Xu Jinyu glanced at Xu Zheng, who was blushing with his face, with concern. The amount of alcohol allowed is really not good. If you get drunk and lose your manners in front of people, it's bad

Xu Zheng seemed to be aware of Xu Jinyu's gaze, and quickly winked at Xu Jinyu.

Xu Jinyu smiled, and then saw Princess An Ning in front of her and hung her head shyly.

Xu Jinyu: ""

Finished!

What an unexplained misunderstanding! Do you want to say, "Princess, you misunderstood, the eldest brother is winking at me, and he never secretly looks at you and is disrespectful to you"?

Although Princess An Ning is easy-going and straightforward, her identity is there, and it is really not something they can afford to provoke. Even if the mother and son of King Qin are given death in the future, Princess An Ning will not die well, but that will be in the future. Now she is still the most noble princess of the Great Yan Dynasty!

Xu Jinyu, who has always been calm and composed, couldn't calm down, and paid attention to Princess Anning's movements in fear

I waited for a long time, but nothing happened.

Xu Jinyu's heart lifted high finally slowly fell back into place. Fortunately, I thought about it, fortunately, Princess An Ning had a good temper and did not get angry because of this unintentional offense.

The palace is so aggrieved! After this time, I will never enter the palace again!

Concubine Ji Xian obviously loved Ji Ze's nephew very much, and beckoned King Qin and Ji Ze to sit beside her.

Of course, Xu Zheng wanted to go back to Xu Jinyu.

Princess An Ning sat in front of Xu Jinyu, and Xu Zheng smiled politely when she passed by Princess An Ning's side. Princess An Ning's pretty face blushed and deepened a little.

Xu Zheng didn't pay any attention and sat down beside Xu Jinyu.

Princess An Ning unconsciously pricked up her ears. The voices of the Xu family brothers and sisters who tried their best to suppress vaguely reached their ears.

"Sister, have you eaten enough at noon?"

"I didn't eat a few bites, but fortunately I ate a lot in the morning. How are you? Did you drink a lot? I can smell the wine from afar. ”

"I don't want to drink it either." Xu Zheng's voice revealed a bit of helplessness: "But I really can't shirk it." ”

King Qin and the others are more valuable than the other, he only has the share of laughing and drinking, and he can't afford to offend any of them.

Xu Jinyu's tone was full of distress: "When I go back, I'll cook sobering soup for you to drink." ”

Xu Zheng smiled and said in a low voice: "When have your hands touched firewood, rice, oil and salt, even if you cook it, I don't dare to drink it." It's better to let Sun's mother cook safely. ”

Xu Jinyu heard that his brother was making fun of himself, and playfully replied: "I don't care, in short, it's rare for me to cook once, no matter how bad the decanting soup is, you have to drink it without a drop." ”

Xu Zheng chuckled.

Their brother and sister have such a good relationship!

Princess An Ning thought with envy. King Qin treats her sister very well, but King Qin is too busy, and he lives outside the palace, and he can only see her once in ten days and a half months. Even if they meet and talk, they are not as intimate and casual as Xu Zheng's brothers and sisters

Xu Jinyu naturally couldn't guess that Princess An Ning was eavesdropping on her and Xu Zheng.

However, the next question should not fall into the ears of others. Xu Jinyu's voice became a little lower: "Big brother, what about the King of Chu and General Chen?" Why didn't I come with you? ”R1152
