Chapter 321: On the Table

Yu Shu still remembers that when she first arrived in the An Dynasty, she was in the ancestral house of the Ji family, and she felt that the pavilions and pavilions were very magnificent, and later walked through the elegant and chic Dingbo Pavilion of the King of Xiang with Xue Rui, and the old mansion of the Ji family could not be seen.

If it is described as a woman, the old mansion of the Ji family is a lady who does not go out of the door, then the Dingbo Pavilion is a beautiful woman with a graceful demeanor, and the eldest princess's mansion, which occupies a long street at the foot of Huang Guo, is indeed a noble and compelling beautiful woman.

Yu Shu held the invitation in his hand, followed Xue Rui and entered the gate of the Princess's Mansion that had only been repainted not long ago, and took advantage of his free time to greet acquaintances, staring fiercely at the row of two-zhang tall trees planted around the flower beds in the front yard, the crowns connected to the top of their heads, luxuriantly regardless of the season, illuminated by countless flower-winged golden chandeliers over the garden, as if a formed dragon hovering in the air.

She has been with the Qing Zheng Taoist, only to hear of such a treasure tree, rooted in the yard, all year round is green, no flowers, no leaves, but its leaves can attract three wealth, gather four treasures, branches can suppress the five evils, block six misfortunes, rumors that even if it encounters natural disasters, hiding under this treasure tree, it can also turn evil into good fortune, because the crown of the tree is rare to generate a dragon shape, the predecessors called this treasure tree "Dragon Wood", who can have such a treasure at home, can wake up with a smile in a dream, just afraid to sleep with this tree every day.

Yu Shu concluded that the row of trees on the edge of the flower bed was the Longting wood in Qing Zheng's mouth, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and secretly screamed Good behave, such a rarity, it was placed here to guard the gate.

After Xue Rui finished talking to the people, he looked back and saw that Yu Shu was staring in one direction, he looked over, and didn't see anyone, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Yu Shu raised his hand and pointed to the row of trees, and asked him, "Do you recognize what kind of tree it is?"

Xue Rui looked up at the large canopy of trees, and there was a hint of admiration on his face. Yu Shu was surprised when he opened his mouth: "It's Long Tingmu."

"Huh, do you recognize?"

Xue Rui just smiled at her, raised his legs and followed the maid who led the way to the garden, Yu Shu touched his chin and followed, wanting to ask him how he recognized this treasure, and then thought about it, the Xue family is a wealthy family in the capital, and the eldest prince Xue has never seen any rare treasures. Maybe people have it at home.

"Brother Rui!"

Someone shouted from behind, Xue Rui stopped with his hands behind his back, Yu Shu turned his head and saw Feng Zhaomiao trotting with his hem to catch up with them, and when he saw Yu Shu here, he was not surprised, and grinned at her:

"I haven't seen you in a while. How is it lately, I heard Brother Rui say that you were injured and recovered?"

This little boy of the General's Mansion has a personal relationship with Yu Shu, and treats her closer than ordinary people.

Yu Shu was also very happy to see him, raised his hand, showed his little finger wrapped in medicine to show him, and said, "It's not good yet."

Feng Zhaomiao didn't know that Yu Shu was forced to break a finger by Si Tianjian's people. From the outside, she only thought that she was broken flesh, so she didn't ask much, and muttered in her heart that the girl's family was stupid.

The three of them talked and chatted, walked to the door of the banquet hall together, handed the post with incense pressed to the eunuch who bowed in front of the door, and followed his chanting voice into the door.

"Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Lord Xue has arrived."

The eunuch only recited one post from Xue Rui. Again, that's the rule. Feng Zhaomiao is a son-in-law and has no official position. There is no need to recite, let alone Yu Shu's grassroots, the identity of the candidate for the Dayan test can only be taken out to fool the people, here, there is not a fart.

Yu Shu squinted his eyes by the resplendor inside, swept around the surrounding environment, and glanced at the protagonist who was sitting at the front and surrounded by a table of people - a white jade algae shirt, the gorgeous Jingchen, and then quickly looked at the guests at the rest of the table, not surprisingly, none of them were familiar.

The table where Jingchen was big, with eleven or twelve people seated, and a few vacant seats, as Yu Shu expected, she and Xue Rui were led by the waiter and walked towards that table.

When he got to the front, Yu Shu saw the other people at the table clearly, there were a few people who knew each other, not to mention Liu Hao, the seventh prince and Liu Tan, the ninth prince, and the other two young people with golden hair on their heads must also be from the imperial generation.

Liu Jiong, the little prince of Xiangwang, and the brother and sister of Xiwen County sat together, one was talking to Jing Chen, and the other was pulling the little sister next to Jing Chen, slapping him, probably looking at palmistry or something.

From the beginning of the banquet, Jingchen sat like this, listening to them talking, looking at the door from time to time, as soon as he saw Yu Shu enter the door, his face showed a little happy color, and he was about to stand up, when he suddenly remembered Liu Tan's warning yesterday, persuading him not to be too close to Yu Shu in front of people, so he sat still and waited for someone to approach.

"Xue Rui is late, congratulations to Daozi for moving." Xue Rui first saluted Jing Chen, and then met several princes present.

It is true that he was delayed due to official business and came late. Fortunately, no one here intended to embarrass him, so he didn't mention the punishment, nodded one by one, and then glanced at Yu Shu behind him intentionally or unintentionally, and those who had never seen Yu Shu could roughly guess who the girl who was born on this face was.

Yu Shu and the county lord of Xiwen had some festivals, and they pulled their faces back on the night of the Lantern Festival, and when they saw it today, they just glanced at her coldly, and Yu Shu pretended not to see it.

There were still two free spaces around Liu Tan, Xue Rui took Yu Shu to sit, Feng Zhaomiao scratched his head, looked left and right, and Xi Wen's left hand was still empty, so he moved over to sit.

Yu Shu sat down honestly, and as soon as he looked up, he could see Jing Chen, the two happened to sit opposite each other, across a large round table, Jing Chen saw her raise her head, and her warm gaze turned over, Yu Shu pursed her lips and smiled at him, and then turned his attention to other places, without making eye contact with him more.

The banquet in the princess's mansion was even more extravagant than Yu Shu imagined, and the plates of delicacies on the table, the elixir and jade liquid, if Yu Shu hadn't seen the world in Wangji Building, I am afraid that none of them would have been recognized.

The small plates and small bowls for the meal, all of them are carved from white jade, crystal clear and unbearable to get dirty, Yu Shu pinched the heavy jade chopsticks, I was afraid that one would accidentally break it, and there was a maid who was responsible for the cloth behind her, but she didn't need to reach out to pick up the vegetables, so she added a small bowl to her, but unfortunately each dish was only one bite, which was not enough to taste.

The conversation in the banquet hall was not interrupted, and the guests took advantage of the banquet to take their glasses and inquire about each other's news, their eyes staring at the movement of the main table in the east, waiting for an opportunity to please and make familiar faces. Now in Anling City, in the court, there are a few people who don't know that the Emperor of Ludao is pampering the nephew who has just been found, and even the eldest princess's mansion, which has been empty for more than ten years, has broken the rules and given it to people to live.

This Taoist master, his background is indeed not to be underestimated, and the royal family is just that, but he is still a descendant of Yi Zi, who has been cultivating in the mountains since he was a child, and he doesn't know how much he has learned.

The people at the table on Jing Chen's side were also curious, opening and closing their mouths, mostly asking about Jing Chen's life in the Daomen, and Yu Shu was also very curious, so he listened with his ears pricked up.
