The green smoke curled up, like the sound of winding beams, Chu Weiwan gradually slowed down the speed of playing, to say that the two armies were fighting against each other just now, at this time, the general trend was to clean up the battlefield under the residual sun, and the slowly entangled green smoke seemed to be filled with gunsmoke, just waiting for it to disperse after sunset.
The sound of the piano is like a cry, and the fingertips are slow, until the end.
After the song was played, Chu Weiwan didn't get up, she sat there with her head down, her shoulders heaving, she evened out her breath for a long time, her ten fingers were sore, and she pressed each other.
Rong and the county lord's piano skills are not false, Chu Weiwan also used his ability to suppress the other party, if it wasn't for the Rong and the county lord to mess up the mind first, I am afraid that the two will still fight.
Smelling the incense ordered by Chu Weilin, the smell of tranquility made her slowly calm down, Chu Weiwan smiled at Chu Weilin, and the two sisters helped each other to get up.
Not to mention the brothers opposite, even those wives and grandmothers wanted to see how the girl who could compare to Rong and the county lord looked like, and when Chu Weiwan raised his head, he saw this face like a distant mountain with eyebrows and a clear water hibiscus.
Chongwang Shizi looked at it fixedly, he can penetrate Yang in 100 steps, his archery skills are outstanding, his eyes are also excellent, and the smiles of the two sisters across the lake are so clear, one is gentle and graceful, the other is slender and lovely, it is really a pair of sisters.
He was concentrating, and he didn't think about whether it was appropriate to stare at it like this, until Chang Yuming on the side wailed that he remembered the bet, and quickly collected his thoughts, and coughed dryly to hide the embarrassment.
But there was still one person who didn't look away, and there was a faint smile in the peach blossom eyes, as if he was greeted by the most moving scenery in this spring.
Chu Weijing noticed it, gently bumped Chang Yuyun with his elbow, and said in a low voice: "Even if you are your own cousin, you shouldn't be so ......."
Chang Yuyun was still generous, and said with a smile: "I just want to see how they will end up if they don't save face for Ronghe County Lord." ”
There seems to be nothing wrong with saying this, Chu Weijing touched his nose and said no more.
In another place, there were also people watching the competition intently.
The eldest princess held a banquet, and she herself did not participate in the official ladies, but only sat in the water pavilion not far away with several princesses and princesses.
Seeing the excitement below, the eldest princess smiled and said, "Looking at them one by one, I remembered that I was not out of the cabinet." Ru Niang, do you remember? We were comparing the pipa at that time, right? That bouncing lute of yours has bound my brother's heart. ”
Ru Niang is the name of Princess Chong, her cheeks were slightly red when she heard this, but she didn't twist it, and said: "The matter of so many years ago, His Royal Highness still used it to make fun, but the piano skills of these two girls are really good, and this daughter of Xuanping Hou even likes the Queen Mother." ”
Mrs. Xuanping Hou sat aside, at the beginning of the competition with the county lord, she was full of confidence, but she also said some self-humble words, but anyone could hear that she never thought that her daughter would lose, and at this moment after listening to the words of Princess Chong, she only felt full of irony, and smiled.
Princess Chong originally didn't mean to hit people, but Mrs. Xuanpinghou's reaction made her feel extremely bored.
It's not a big deal, the girl's family competition, naturally there is a high and low, she didn't let the eldest princess back then, and she didn't think that the official girl had to let the county lord, after all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that it must be Rong and the county lord who provoked first, and people had to fight.
Far away, Princess Chong also noticed the situation on her son's side.
Knowing the son Mo Ruomu, although the son has not been around for many years, Princess Chong can guess a little bit by looking at his expression.
The son of the world went to the battlefield with King Chong, and after a few years, the marriage was delayed, and the mother's anxiety could not hinder the child's future.
Since the prince has some interest in the official girl, it is better to push the boat down the river and ask.
Princess Chong smiled and said to the eldest princess: "I don't move around much, there are so many children here, and they only know Ronghe, who is the one who compares with Ronghe?" ”
The eldest princess couldn't answer, the old female officials beside her were smart, and the background of the girls in the mansion was well remembered, so she introduced: "That's the third girl of the Chu Mansion, and my grandfather once served as the left deputy capital of the Imperial Palace. Speaking of the old capital Chu family, I don't know if the eldest princess still remembers Kang Pingye's Xian Guifei Niangniang? The eldest princess was taken care of by that lady for a month when she was a child, and it was the Chu family. In addition, the grandmother of the third girl, Wen, is the second daughter of the county lord of Huiyu, who was personally crowned by the great grandfather. ”
"That concubine of my great-grandfather? I was young then, and now I think about it, and I only remember that it was a kind old lady with full white hair," the eldest princess laughed, "and this girl has some origins.
When it comes to Kang Pingye's elegant concubine, the eldest princess's tone is a lot more intimate, but the one invited today is the royal family, the honorable officials and eunuchs, if you really have to calculate it carefully, which one has no origin?
Princess Chong also smiled, looked Chu Weiwan up and down, secretly calculated, just listening to this few words, although she was not a first-class good, she was not inferior.
Xia Shuren, who had been sitting on the side and had not spoken, took a sip of fragrant tea, and said with a light smile: "Last year, the three girls of the Chu family and Xu, I went to watch the ceremony, and I saw that it was a well-behaved child, I liked it very much, and the six girls of the Chu family, the one who had just lit incense, was also a smart and lovely person, if it weren't for my grandson being too young, I would have to be cheeky to beg for it." ”
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was surprised.
Xia Shuren walked around a lot in various mansions, and the eyes of the girl were very poisonous, and she could be praised by her, and she had something extraordinary. In the past, Xia Shuren praised many girls, but there was never a sentence in the end, which shows that the sisters of the Chu family really liked her.
Originally, this boast should have been given to the county lord of Ronghe, but let a "wild road" snatch it away, Mrs. Xuanping Hou had a calm face, and even the eye-catching Nanzhu necklace around her neck was much darker.
On the other side, Princess Chong took off a delicate jade bracelet on her wrist and handed it to the maid beside her: "Reward Miss Chu San, ask her to come back to the mansion to play the piano with me, the two men in the palace have been away from Beijing all the year round, I am bored and panicked alone, and it is better to have a confidant daughter than to raise a son," After speaking, he smiled and said to Xia Shu, "I envy you the most, my daughter is intimate, no matter how cold the day is, this heart is hot." ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone laughed.
The people sitting are all transparent people, and they naturally heard the meaning underneath, this is in line with Princess Chong's eyes, wait and take a look, if Chu Weiwan is polite and sensible, he will be promoted, if it is not suitable, it will not damage the reputation of the girl's family too much.
On the girls' side, the county lord of Ronghe had a blue face, and he didn't have the arrogant appearance he had before, although Dong Lingyin was good friends with her, he didn't dare to speak rashly, for fear of setting himself on fire.
Chu Weiwan stepped forward slowly, saluted slightly, and said with a smile: "The county lord has accepted." ”
didn't say that it was a broken string, nor did he humble himself a few words, but only said the victory and defeat clearly.
The corners of Dong Lingyin's lips twitched, and she felt that Chu Weiwan was too arrogant, she didn't dare to provoke Rong and the county lord, but she could attack Chu Weiwan, after all, this matter was caused by her, if she stayed out of the matter, she didn't know how Rong and the county lord would settle accounts after the autumn.
"Proud of what? If it weren't for the broken piano, I wouldn't know ......."
"Enough!" Before Dong Lingyin finished speaking, he was interrupted by the county lord Ronghe, "It's not shameful enough!" ”
has already lost face, and there is no way for the county lord Ronghe to be angry and annoyed, but if he loses, he loses, and looking for those excuses is simply embarrassing himself, Chu Weiwan is straightforward, not mentioning those trivial things, but making the county lord Ronghe acceptable.
If she had said those things in a false way, she would have had a seizure.
can accept it again, when he saw the maid beside Princess Chong, the county lord of Ronghe still couldn't bear it, turned his head and ran out.
"Miss Chu San, the girl has outstanding piano skills, this is the princess's reward for the girl, and when the girl is convenient, the princess wants to invite the girl to come over." The maid said it clearly and handed over the jade bracelet to Chu Weiwan.
Chu Weiwan was stunned, she was either ignorant, or she understood the meaning of Princess Chong too well, and she didn't know how to show favor for a while.
"Flutter-" Chu Weilin laughed first, and while Chu Weiwan didn't come back to her senses, she reached out and took the handkerchief in her sleeve, took it to the incense burner that was still smoking, and smoked it back and forth, "I have prepared a handkerchief for my sister, if my sister blushes, there is still a shame." ”
Ye Yushu laughed and pointed at Chu Weilin who was speechless.
The matter of the boudoir is ashamed, but it is so simple, it is really broken, but it is not so twisted.
Chu Weiwan glanced at Chu Weilin, and lightly snatched the veil back: "It's not serious!" ”
The girls laughed and dispersed here, and the Huang family on the other side didn't know the situation here, and when people inquired, it was difficult to hide the joy on their faces.
The kind-hearted person who admired the princess, since he made a move, he would never let Chu Weiwan lose face, it was done, it was a royal relative, it was not possible, and with the temperament of the princess, he would also recognize his goddaughter, and let Chu Weiwan be half a clansman.
The prince of Chongwang also saw the maid beside his mother rewarding Chu Weiwan, and his heart was entangled, and he couldn't say clearly, but in the end, he only felt that it was a sweet taste.
Perhaps with this than the piano first, everywhere became more lively, and there were also bold girls who knew that the brothers were making pairs, so they asked the servant to fetch them and read them.
Chu Weilin sat with Chu Weiwan, quietly waiting for the development below, and when she saw that Chu Weihu was going to change clothes, her heart sank.
Sure enough, after a quarter of an hour's work, a maid came in and whispered to a few sisters of the Chu family: "Seventh Miss Chu accidentally broke her foot and sat in the pavilion in front of her. ”
Chu Weiwan was worried about Chu Weihu and got up to look for it, Chu Weilin pulled Chu Weiwan's cuffs and said, "I'll go with my sister, and I will need someone to help her come back." ”
