Chapter 276: Compassion for a Weak Woman
Long Qing came over, saw Ling Yuanchen's decadent appearance, and said, "Yuanchen, don't be like this, at most it's okay?" After you settle the matter here in Beiyuan, I'll go to Qi Country for you to ask for a kiss, okay? ”
Only then did Ling Yuanchen turn his head and say, "Asking for a kiss?" May I? ”
Long Qing said: "Of course you can, when the time comes, you can let Ling'er come over as a princess of Heqin, right?" ”
Hearing Long Qing's words, Ling Yuanchen finally regained his spirit.
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, because of the emperor's reasons, so except for a simple palace banquet, everything else is gone, although it is very simple, but this is the first time Qi Hongxin has seen Wen Ling in so many days, so he is still very happy.
He found out that it was not good to be the emperor, as long as Wen Ling did not enter the palace, he would not be able to see anyone, although he often asked Qingping to invite Wen Ling into the palace, but she always refused for various reasons.
It's rare to see it today, Qi Hongxin naturally wants to leave people behind, after the palace banquet, Qi Hongxin asked Qingping to put some pastries on the lookout, and he forcibly pulled Wen Ling up.
Wen Ling sat on the lookout and looked at Qi Hongxin with a cold face and said, "Brother Xin, what are you doing?" Just now, Sister Zhen asked you to see the eldest prince, you said that you are very busy, is it possible, are you just busy doing this? ”
Qi Hongxin took a piece of moon cake for Wen Ling and put it in her hand, and said: "This observatory is the best place to admire the moon, this people have a lantern festival, although we can't go, but here, we can see all the scenes of the entire capital." ”
Wen Ling said: "Brother Xin, the person who can't go is you, but not me, if you don't pull me, I would have gone to visit the lantern festival in the capital a long time ago." ”
Qi Hongxin said with a smile: "Sister Ling'er, you should have pity on me, just accompany me here to enjoy the moon, okay?" ”
Wen Ling smiled: "Okay." ”
Qi Hongxin immediately said: "Look, this moon cake is specially made by the imperial chef, and I also went to a famous folk pastry shop to buy it, you can eat more." ”
Wen Ling put down the moon cake and said, "Don't worry, the courtiers have something to ask the emperor." ”
Qi Hongxin nodded: "Ling'er, if you have anything to say, right?" ”
Wen Ling knelt down directly and said: "The courtiers also asked the emperor to allow the courtiers to withdraw from the marriage." ”
Qi Hongxin also smiled: "Impossible, Ling'er, you know me, everything else is okay except for this matter." ”
Wen Ling said: "The courtiers have the dictation of the emperor, and the courtiers have the autonomy to marry. ”
Qi Hongxin looked at Wen Ling: "Of course, the Emperor Taishang also asked you, and you yourself agreed, which can be regarded as your own choice, so I don't approve it, let's do it today, I'm tired, you can take a look here." ”
Wen Ling and the others left, and they also went back to the house angrily, Qin Xuan looked at it with hatred in his heart, and left here with Xiao Jiu.
Originally, she asked the emperor to go to see the child, but he said he was busy, but she asked the maid to inquire, and he was busy accompanying Wen Ling, a slut.
Xiao Jiu said: "Zhaoyi Niangniang, why don't you let the princess deal with her, last time this princess could even send someone to destroy her innocence, she must have hated her to the extreme, let this stupid princess rectify her, and you don't need to make a move, and someone cleaned up this slut." ”
Qin Xuan said, since this is the case, you can go to the princess's mansion and continue to pick a fire.
Time passed day by day, Qi Hongxin followed the Taifu and the third prince to learn to manage the government, Qin Cheng in the court on the grounds that Qin Zhaoyi gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, let Qi Hongxin seal the concubine, Wen Ling had a rare idle life in the Guogong Mansion, suddenly, I saw Xiaolian walk in with something, Wen Ling asked: "Xiaolian, what are you holding in your hand?" ”
Xiaolian walked over, showed the things in her hand to Wen Ling, and said, "This is a post from the princess's mansion." ”
Wen Ling opened it and saw that it was a post about appreciating the chrysanthemum banquet, did time pass so quickly? It's time for the chrysanthemum banquet again, Wen Ling didn't think about it, and handed the post to Xiaolian: "Go and help me refuse, just say that I am still in the filial piety period and it is not suitable to meet guests." ”
Xiaolian didn't want Miss to go, so naturally she immediately refused, who knew that this invitation came again in the past two days, Xiaolian was a little dissatisfied: "Miss, what do you say about this princess, you obviously said that in the filial piety period, what are they doing so anxious to let you go?" ”
Wen Ling smiled: "Show me the invitation, let me see who is here." ”
Xiaolian took the invitation to Wen Ling, Wen Ling knew it as soon as she saw the person invited above, and an imperceptible smile appeared on her face at the corner of her mouth, but it was fleeting, Wen Ling took the invitation to Xiaolian and said: "Tell the people in the princess's mansion, just say that the lord of the county has gone to enjoy the chrysanthemum banquet." ”
Xiaolian hesitated a little: "But Miss, didn't you say you wouldn't go?" ”
Wen Ling smiled: "Since the princess sincerely invites me to go, then I will go." ”
In the evening, Qin Shuyi also came to the Guogong Mansion, and the first thing he said when they met, he also asked the same thing: "I heard that you are going to enjoy the chrysanthemum banquet?" ”
Wen Ling teased: "What? Grand Prince Qin is so idle? Even the affairs of this little daughter's family are so clear? ”
Qin Shu was speechless and said: "Naturally not, it's just that I know everything about that family." ”
Wen Ling asked, "Brother Qin, have you ever thought about what you would do if you took revenge?" ”
Qin Shu also thought for a while and said: "To be honest, I haven't thought about this matter, since the day my mother died, all I had left in my mind was revenge, and nothing else had anything to do with me." ”
Qin Shu also asked, "What about you?" Have you ever wondered? Or will you go to the palace to be your queen? ”
Wen Ling said: "I won't go, I actually yearn for the life of the rivers and lakes, although it is also a fight and killing, at least, it will not be like in Beijing, sometimes, you don't know who is friend or foe, I am a person, I am used to being free, and I can't stand the kind of days when I even speak and do things to be polite." ”
Qin Shu also said: "This chrysanthemum banquet is a Hongmen banquet, you have to be careful." ”
Wen Ling smiled: "I heard that this man is always very fond of weak women and women who need their protection, I think this chrysanthemum banquet will definitely be very interesting." ”
Qin Shuyi said: "Since you have your own idea, then I will leave first." ”
Wen Ling said, "Brother Qin, can you do me a favor?" ”
Qin Shu also asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Wen Ling said: "You should know that there is an extra girl by Qin Guifei's side, right?" That girl is the one who wanted to kill me last time, she is now squatting in the palace all day long, I can't deal with her, you can help me find a way to force her out. ”
Qin Shu also nodded: "Okay." ”
In the blink of an eye, this chrysanthemum banquet arrived, this year Concubine Ye was gone, so she went directly to the princess's mansion, this is the first time that Qi Shao has held a banquet after getting married, and naturally many young ladies and girls have been invited.
Wen Ling wore an off-white embroidered robe skirt, and only pulled a bun on her head and pinned it with a hosta, and her dark and soft hair hung down behind her, which had a sense of beauty.
When he went out, Wen Ling looked at the sky and sighed: "The weather is so good today." ”
Xiaolian also looked at the sky, thinking that since the Mid-Autumn Festival this day, isn't it like this every day?
When Wen Ling and Xiaolian arrived at the princess's mansion, the maid took the two of them around the main hall and the flower hall to the pavilion, and Wen Ling realized that she had come too late.
A group of young women and young ladies sat around with Qin Zhen and Qi Shao as the center, and the Emperor Taishang was still sick, so he didn't make a big deal as usual, let alone let the young master go on a blind date.
Wen Ling stepped forward and saluted: "The courtiers see Princess Changhua, see the concubine Niangniang, the courtiers rarely attend the banquet, so they are late, and I ask the princess and the concubine to forgive their sins." ”
Qin Zhen said: "Sister Ling'er is fine, you have already given face when you came." ”
Qi Shao said: "Lord Lingqin, it's really wrong for you to be late, and it's inevitable that you're a little disappointed, it's better to do this, you should punish yourself with three cups as a reparation?" ”
Wen Ling really felt that this Qi Shao was too anxious, this was just the beginning, and he couldn't wait to fix her, Wen Ling smiled and begged for mercy: "Princess, you should have heard that the courtiers are not in good health and can't drink, and ask the princess to forgive her sins." ”
Qi Shao just wanted to have a seizure, Qin Zhen patted her hand, and Qi Shao endured it.
Qin Xuan said: "Sister Ling'er, come and sit here, this princess is also kind, and it is indeed your fault that you are late." ”
Wen Ling was also ready to find a random seat to sit down, but she looked left and right, and only Qi Shao was left to sit empty.
Wen Ling also sat down politely, listening to the group chatting and laughing, Wen Ling also listened to a little interesting, she had never had fun with so many young girls, so I didn't know, it turned out that these girls were also quite interesting.
Qin Zhen saw that Wen Ling was just sitting there, so he took a glass of fruit wine and handed it to Wen Ling, Wen Ling said: "Guifei Niangniang, courtiers don't drink. ”
Qin Xuan smiled and said: "This palace knows, but this wine is not ordinary wine, this wine is fruit wine from the Western Regions, just like the one you drank at the palace banquet last time." ”
Qi Shao said: "No wonder this county lord doesn't drink the wine of this palace, it turns out that he dislikes the wine of this palace is not good enough." ”
Wen Ling smiled: "Princess, you are joking, the courtiers really don't know how to drink, last time at the palace banquet, it was the emperor who asked someone to prepare it for me, so I just tried it." ”
Qin Xuan continued: "Sister, this is also given to the palace by the emperor, you can taste it, this is another kind of fruit wine, it has a different taste." ”
Wen Ling couldn't do it, so she had to take it, who knows, as soon as she stretched out her hand and didn't catch it steadily, this Qin Zhen directly let go, and a glass of wine was spilled directly on Qi Shao's body.
Qi Shao stood up with an "ah", the maid hurriedly came to wipe the wine stains for her, Qi Shao roared angrily: "I don't know what the Lord of Lingqin means?" This palace just sees that you are late and punishes you with three glasses of wine, and you hold a grudge against this palace? ”
