Chapter 30: The Prince's Birthday

The emperor was startled, and hurriedly reached out to help him, and asked pretending to be worried, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Duanmu Rui waved his hand and gasped: "It's not a big deal, maybe I've been recuperating for a long time and haven't moved much, so I'm a little weak."

"Weak? Then you still haven't recovered from your injuries, go back and take care of it, what medicinal materials do you need, let people say, no matter how troublesome it is, no matter how much money you spend, the royal brother will help you find it. ”

The emperor's face was worried, thinking that he was a symptom of poisoning, but in fact his heart was very happy, and he asked people to send him out of the palace with his shoulder.

Seeing that he was happy, the chamberlain splashed ink on the rice paper, very chic and wanton, and immediately stepped forward and said something nice, "It seems that the emperor's wish is about to come true, which is really gratifying." ”

"Haha, don't talk nonsense, it's not interesting for him to live like this anyway, I'm here to help him get free. Don't always keep an eye on him in the future, he can do whatever he wants, anyway, there are not many days left. ”

He was thinking that Duanmu Rui would die soon, so he relaxed his vigilance against him.

Not long after, the prince's birthday is coming, and there will be many court officials coming, which is a very formal occasion, so he wants to invite Su Yuxian, who has a marriage contract with him.

He personally came to the door to invite, but he also wanted to take a look at Su Wanyan.

The prince came to the door, Su Sui was not in the house, Huo Qingqing, as an elder, greeted him with Su Wanyan and Su Yuxian, and Su Heming was not out of school yet.

After explaining her intentions, Huo Qingqing felt that the prince gave her a very long face, and on his birthday, he actually came to invite Su Yuxian in person.

This made Su Yuxian feel flattered, and stood with her head down shyly, looking at the prince with flattering eyes from time to time, they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and she missed it tightly.

After talking, she pulled Huo Qingqing's sleeve several times, Huo Qingqing squinted at her, but still let them go to the garden to talk.

The prince's eyes looked at Su Wanyan from time to time, and saw her holding the tea bowl with her head down and taking a sip, as if she was drinking some kind of elixir and jade liquid.

The four of them walked to the fork in the garden, and Su Wanyan wanted to go back to her yard, "My sister is so happy to entertain His Royal Highness the Prince, Wanyan won't bother you." ”

"Heming is almost out of school, you better go back quickly." Su Yuxian saw that she was interested, and smiled at her.

"Your Highness is out of company." Su Wanyan turned around and left.

"Hey, Sister Wanyan......" The prince raised his arm and shouted, turning his head to see Su Yuxian staring at him with a pair of wonderful eyes, and he couldn't speak.

And Su Wanyan didn't seem to hear it, and continued to walk forward her.

"Your Highness, Xian'er will take you to the lake to have a look, the scenery over there is pleasant."

The natural scenery over there is pleasant, because Su Yuxian lives by the lake, she wants to invite the prince to sit with her, they are not married yet, and it will be laughed at if she takes a man to her boudoir on the surface, and she can no longer spoil her reputation.

The prince didn't care where he went, anyway, he had been to this general's mansion many times, and he hadn't seen any kind of good scenery, he was not rare at all.

When she arrived at the lake, Su Yuxian took the prince through a plum forest, she is a beauty in the end, although she does not have the awe-inspiring arrogance of plum blossoms, but that face can definitely be regarded as a person compared to a flower.

She is also flattering, delicate, and she is very talented, and she speaks unconventionally.

The prince was already lustful, and the beauty was current, he couldn't help but itch, and hugged Su Yuxian, Su Yuxian exclaimed, but the person was already soft, and let the prince mess around with her, and the two of them walked out of Merlin for a long time.

Further forward is the attic where Su Yuxian lives, anyway, he has already won the favor of the prince, so Su Yuxian did not invite him up again.

When the prince went back, he always felt that he didn't say a few words to Su Wanyan, and he was a little sorry for being close for a while, and this time he was going to invite Su Yuxian to his birthday banquet, he wanted to know Su Wanyan's reaction, so he asked people to investigate.

Su Wanyan finished dealing with the affairs of the Surprise Hall this day, so she took Lingxiu to wander around the street, and when she walked, she felt that someone was following, but she didn't make a sound.

Lingxiu suddenly whispered: "Miss, I seem to have seen the guards around the prince, and there are three of them, following us." ”

Lingxiu has a good memory, as long as she has seen people, especially those who have been in contact, she will definitely not forget.

That time I went to the lake, Lingxiu and the guards let the prince be dismissed, they stayed together and chatted a few words, although they changed their clothes today, but Lingxiu will definitely not admit his mistake.

"What do they want to do?" Lingxiu asked Su Wanyan.

Su Wanyan didn't answer, and took Lingxiu to the teahouse on the street, "After entering, they will definitely come with you, let's just say bad things about Su Yuxian." ”

Lingxiu nodded vigorously, "Okay." ”

Isn't it easy? She had it at her fingertips.

After the two entered, the shopkeeper beckoned them to sit down, and the three people followed in and sat down at the table behind them.

"Lingxiu, His Royal Highness the Prince's birthday banquet must be very lively, but unfortunately Miss Ben can't go." Luo Shinian's tone was listless.

"Miss, don't be like this, we don't want to do this." Lingxiu hurriedly peeled an orange for her, and was busy peeling peanuts for her to coax her.

"It's all Su Yuxian, she deliberately came to anger me, and she always had a marriage contract with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on my premise." Su Wanyan pretended to be so angry that she threw the oranges on the table and didn't eat them.

Lingxiu hurriedly echoed, "No, she has been so proud recently that she even deliberately came to discuss with you what gift to prepare for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”

The three of them stayed for a while and left, Lingxiu hurriedly told Su Wanyan, Su Wanyan smiled and patted the peanut skin on her hand, "They must go back and report to the prince." ”

Sure enough, the next day, the prince sent a gift, and by the way, he brought a letter to express his apology to Su Wanyan and invited her to attend the birthday banquet together.

Su Wanyan didn't want to go, but since the prince said it, she could only prepare, and going to the birthday banquet was also to give herself a long face, so that people couldn't underestimate her.

Su Yuxian heard that she could also participate, so she muttered to her maid in the house, "I don't know what tricks that little cheap hoof used to make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince promise to invite her to participate and give her a long face in front of people." ”

"She's running outside all day, and who knows what to do." The maid Xiaocui arranged Su Wanyan's words according to Su Yuxian's words.

Su Yuxian picked up the embroidery in her hand and smiled with satisfaction, "The top priority is to prepare the dress and gifts for His Highness, and when the time comes, it is better than anything else to make His Highness happy." ”

She also arranged for someone to find out what style and color Su Wanyan's dress was, and what gifts she had prepared.

Two days later, the maid came to report to her, saying that Su Wanyan's dress was tailor-made from the Qianxiu Workshop outside, and she didn't make it herself at all, but she didn't know anything about the style and color.

Su Wanyan was trying on the dress in the house at this time, so that the maids couldn't help but marvel at the color to the embroidery pattern to the style.

"This is a style that has risen recently, you see this stand-up collar, it looks dignified and unique, and this jade buckle is also of the highest quality."

Wen Xiu said about the collar, and pointed his finger at the circle of embroidery on the collar, "Look, the rose treasure pattern on this is too exquisitely embroidered." ”

"I prefer this outer robe, the concubine color, and the pink piping, and the embroidery on the collar, and this belt, well, it's beautiful anyway."

Lingxiu is not good at clothing, so whenever she talks about it, she is more desperate for words, which causes everyone to frolic for a while.

Su Wanyan smiled and quickly stopped, "Okay, I'll stand here and let you watch and guide, like a monkey." ”

"What's the matter, that's because you're so beautiful, Miss." Lingxiu smiled and quickly helped her take off her clothes.

"This sleeve needs to be changed, you go with Wenxiu and the two, and she will know it as soon as she tells the store."

Su Wanyan explained to Lingxiu, and she wanted to make her sleeves one inch longer.

The two of them dressed up and went out of the house, and the people sent by Su Yuxian to inquire followed them all the way to the Thousand Embroidery Workshop.

In a blink of an eye, they returned to Su Yuxian's residence and discussed with Su Yuxian, and several people laughed wickedly.

There were only two days before the prince's birthday, Lingxiu and Wenxiu went to the Thousand Embroidery Workshop to get their clothes and came back, so Su Wanyan changed them and tried them.

Wenxiu couldn't wait to open the package, took out the moon-white inner skirt for Su Wanyan to put on, and took out the concubine-colored outer robe, and saw at a glance that the placket and back were cut with two big holes.

She exclaimed, "Oh my God, what's going on? ”

Su Wanyan was looking in the mirror, listening to her scream, her heart was beating sharply, and when she turned around, she saw the miserable state of the robe.

She was so angry for a while that no one could be calm when she saw such a perfect and beautiful thing damaged.

The maids were also so frightened that they knelt on the ground, and Lingxiu reacted first and talked about what had happened along the way.

"The maid and Wenxiu went to the embroidery workshop to get the clothes and came back directly, without delay and without meeting anyone."

After speaking, she reacted suddenly and pulled Wenxiu, "Let's go to the embroidery workshop, there are a lot of people, their shopkeeper gave us things, saying that she had checked the freshly packed with her own hands, and we trusted her and didn't take it out again......"

"Maybe there was something wrong at that time." Wenxiu also reacted.

"Miss, what can I do?" Lingxiu kept wiping her tears, anxious and angry.

Su Wanyan understood as soon as she heard what they said, and immediately asked Lingxiu to go to the embroidery workshop to inquire about it, and Lingxiu asked, "What about the clothes?" ”

"There are still two days to go, if you take it to the embroidery workshop, there are many of them, and it is easy for people to fish in troubled waters......"

Su Wanyan didn't dare to send the clothes back to the embroidery workshop, and if people moved their hands and feet, it really couldn't be saved, and other clothes could be worn, but Su Yuxian's side must be ready to suppress all the female dependents, and when she wore an old one, she would be compared to Su Yuxian to the dust, and people would definitely look down on her.

Since she is going, she must make herself stand out and make people shine, otherwise what is she going for, to find bad luck for herself?

She was in a dilemma, and Wenxiu volunteered to stand up, "Miss, the maid is slightly better than everyone else in terms of female popularity, so it's better to let the maid try." ”

Su Wanyan saw the confident light in her eyes, so she nodded, "Okay, then you come, try to do a good job, and in the end, I won't blame you if it's not satisfactory, but I believe you can." ”

Of course, she hopes that Wenxiu will succeed, she just doesn't want to put pressure on her when she says this, and if she repairs it herself at home, those who do it don't know, and they think that she is finished, and when the time comes, give her a critical blow and anger her.

Wenxiu stayed up late with the help of other maids to catch up with the work, and finally repaired it in the afternoon of the next day, she hurriedly took it to Su Wanyan to take a look, and the others were waiting anxiously outside, and some couldn't help but ask the maids who helped how it was, and shook their heads to help, indicating that they didn't see their true faces.

A moment later, the door opened, and Su Wanyan walked out dressed in costume.

"Ah, it's so beautiful, Sister Wenxiu is so clever."

"Yes, and the ability of this embroidery is not worse than that of the embroidery girl in the Thousand Embroidery Workshop."

Su Wanyan said with a smile: "The embroidery lady of the Thousand Embroidery Workshop is also a human being, and our Wenxiu is just in the house, so I haven't gone out to compete with them." ”
