No", Murong Qingqing shook her head slowly: "The concubine has followed me since she was a child and didn't learn any skills, so she sent her out of the house, didn't she just not give her a way to live?" Furthermore, if it is ......" Murong Qingqing pursed her lips and did not say the rest of the words.

If Xiao Lang knew about it and took the concubine to the Xiao Mansion, wouldn't it be even worse?!

Qingge sighed slightly: "The eldest lady is still as kind as ever, I just hope that the concubine can understand the painstaking efforts of the young lady and stop it in time." ”

"Let's keep practicing." Murong Qingqing's eyes were faint, the Hundred Flowers Banquet was coming soon, and the sons and ladies in the capital were all staring at the name of the leader, especially the woman who loved Xiao Di, and they were all looking forward to falling from the position of the leader, and they couldn't let others get their way.

Qingge smiled and said: "Miss, your guqin is becoming more and more perfect, and the leader of this year's Hundred Flowers Banquet must still be you, Miss!" "Qingge is full of confidence, her own lady is kind and gentle, versatile, not to mention, a hand of guqin is even more fluent, last year's Hundred Flowers Banquet, her own Miss song "Sigh" actually beat Xiao Gongzi's flute, won the first place, since then Xiao Gongzi has a high look at his own miss, which is also the envy of other young ladies in the capital.

Speaking of Xiao Di, Murong Qingqing smiled: "It was Xiao Lang who let me last year, but this year it may not be." ”

Qingge disagreed: "Miss, you are so modest. ”

Murong Qingqing smiled, stopped talking, and plucked the strings lightly with his bare hands, and the pleasant sound of the piano jumped out from the strings one by one, as if it were a heavenly sound......

At this time, in another house in the capital, a woman in pink danced, in the peach blossom forest, where the toes were pointed, with petal petals, although the pink petals were falling flowers, but also bright and dripping, the woman in pink covered her face with white gauze, a plain white long silk around the waist to the wrist, winding and winding, it was complicated and beautiful, after the dance, the peach blossoms flew all over the sky with the plain white long silk, some melted into the mud, some were blown into the distance with the wind, and some petals fell into the woman's hair, and the woman's face was like a peach blossom, dazzling.

"Miss is dancing better and better." Seeing that the woman finished dancing, the maid on the side hurriedly stepped forward to serve a hot tea.

"I can only say that I have made a little progress compared to before, and it is not a good dance." The woman picked up the teacup, lifted the veil, and took a sip.

The appearance of the beauty drinking tea should be very good-looking, but this young lady is not a peerless beauty, the emaciated melon seed face is mediocre, and the nose is not very upturned, only a pair of apricot eyes are round and bright, full of aura, and the cheeks are dyed crimson after the dance, and there is a bit of a girl's coquettish posture for no reason.

The maid looked at her own lady and sighed, her own lady's dancing skills are unparalleled in the world, but unfortunately this appearance is not a peerless face in the beautiful capital, at most it is only a middle-class posture, but her own lady is a top smart, as a concubine, but she does not show her edge, and it is rare for the Feng family to protect herself in the struggle for power.

"Miss is too modest, just in terms of dancing skills, how can there be any other young lady in the capital who can compare to you now?" The maid's eyes widened and she looked serious.

Feng Qianran smiled "fluttering", this maid is really interesting.

"Who said that every year at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, your young lady is not on the list!" Feng Qianran pretended to be lost.

The maid's eyes widened when she heard this, and she clenched her fists unconvinced.

"That's because those people don't know Zhuyu, Miss obviously dances much better than those halfway, but Miss didn't get the ranking, it's really too deceitful."

The Hundred Flowers Banquet once a year, mainly for the capital's noble sons and ladies to provide opportunities to show their talents, the general list is not limited to men and women, only the top three on the list are evaluated every year, only on talent, regardless of family background, extremely rare, so whether you are a powerful person in the court in the capital, a wealthy businessman or a gentry, there is no real talent or the first stunt, not to mention the top three, it is difficult to be on the list, but the list is much easier, this list is divided into men's and women's two lists, as long as there is talent, you can participate in the selection, according to your own lady's dance skills, Being the first in the women's list can be regarded as a condescension.

Feng Qianran smiled: "Do you really think I dance well?" ”

The maid nodded: "That's nature." ”

Feng Qianran raised his eyebrows: "Then, did I jump well before I fell into the water, or do I dance well now?" ”

"This", the maid looked embarrassed: "Well, the young lady danced very well before falling into the water, but if you want the slave maid, although the previous young lady was good at dancing, she learned from the dancer's teaching, and the current young lady can not only dance on the petals, but also create her own white silk dance, which is even more ingenious." ”

Feng Qianran hugged her hands, what this maid means is that now she has not only improved her dancing level to a level, but also learned to hide her clumsiness? I know how to cover my face with a veil, but Feng Qianran doesn't care, I still hold the pipa and half cover my face, this trick is not everyone can understand the essence of it, besides, I came here with a task, and what body I wear is what it looks like, and it is not good for me to act too ostentatious.

Feng Qianran smiled: "You still have vision." ”

"Miss, it's windy outside, the doctor said, your physique is not as good as before after you fall into the water, you should pay more attention." The maid said as she put a cloak on Feng Qianran.

Feng Qianran blinked, and let the maid take her back to the room, anyway, she was ready for the dance of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and the original father's level was also over, as for the original stepmother and those sisters, as long as they didn't provoke themselves, they wouldn't ask for trouble.

"Miss, you're distracted again." The maid was dissatisfied.

Feng Qianran was helpless: "Okay, okay, don't get distracted." ”

This maid really has a verbose mouth, when she first came, she found that the original body had nothing, which was excellent, but this maid who was sent to take care of her, people are not good enough, this heart is as hot as something, she has always been a dissolute person uncomfortable, but every time she wants to refuse, and sees this maid's innocent big eyes, she always can't say anything serious, but the wind is sad.

However, the top priority is to find the person, and Feng Qianran's eyes are obscure.

In the most luxurious private room of Junyi Pavilion, three sons in brocade clothes were pushing cups and changing lamps, laughing constantly.

"Ah Shang, I heard that there is a girl in your family, who looks like a beautiful fairy, how about giving her to your brother?" Zheng Ruihe squeezed his eyes at Murong Shang and gestured.

Qin Lanfeng coughed lightly and gave Zheng Ruihe a roll of his eyes.

"That's Miss Murong's girl, you should be a businessman? I can give it to you if I say I will send it?! ”

Zheng Ruihe smiled even more: "If it is really Ah Shang's maidservant, I am afraid that he will be reluctant, how can he ask for it!" ”

Seeing Zheng Ruihe's appearance, Qin Lanfeng sighed, picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all.

"Shang, what do you think?"

"I'm willing." The voice that cherishes words like gold is indifferent.

Zheng Ruihe fell through his eyes: "Isn't it?!" Are you really willing to do it? I was fortunate to see that beauty, that figure, that appearance, is the snow-skinned flowers in the palace, and the mothers who are carefully raised every day are incomparable! ”

Murong Shang's thin lips pursed lightly: "Such a person, staying in the Murong family is a scourge, if he can give up, he will give it up a long time ago." ”

Qin Lanfeng shook his head and said with a smile: "Ruihe, have you forgotten our Ah Shang's temperament?" No matter how beautiful the young lady is, she can't look down on it, let alone a slave maid, just beautiful in vain, and her character and talent, where can she compare to a serious young lady. ”

"Also, Ah Shang is worthy of a mere slave and maid." Zheng Ruihe nodded, who is Murong Shang? At the age of eight, he recited poetry and became famous, just when everyone thought that he would take the road of Wenchen and contribute to the court like his eldest brother, he turned his head and opened a shop in the capital, that is, he was only eight years old, as the saying goes, "businessmen are cheap", but Murong Shang made twice the cost of the shop in the first year of operation, in the third year, he opened the fourth shop, and in the fifth year, he cooperated with the royal family and became a serious imperial businessman, with a noble status, in the eighth year, he opened the first tavern in the capital "Junyi Pavilion", and in the tenth year, most of the shops in the capital were under the name of Murong Shang, Murong Shang started from scratch, and he was handsome as a god, ranking second among the three sons of the capital, far better than Murong Feng back then, and can be described as the dream lover of a woman in the capital.

"Ah Shang, that concubine is also causing trouble to Murong Mansion because she keeps it, why don't you do it as a favor and send it to my Zheng family? Anyway, she is also your sister's maidservant, and even if our two families are married, I promise that I will not treat her badly. Zheng Ruihe frowned.

Looking at Zheng Ruihe's stalker, Qin Lanfeng had no choice but to support his forehead.

"Ruihe, you are also the sister-in-law of the Zheng family, can you not be like this."

"What's wrong with me? Is the hero sad about the beauty, I really put my heart into that concubine. Zheng Ruihe retorted.

Qin Lanfeng was even more speechless, if Old Man Zheng saw his grandson flattering his rival for a woman like this, he would probably be so angry that he would jump out of the coffin! The Zheng family and the Murong family are rivals in the officialdom, one evil and one right, one turbid and one clear, on the surface they are opposite, but they are both the emperor's left and right hands, and only the two families contain each other can reassure the emperor, so although the two families are incompatible in the eyes of everyone in the capital, they know in their hearts that the existence of the other party is the best protection for themselves, Zheng Ruihe has a good look, clear eyebrows, and at first glance he is a handsome son with no scheming, but only he and Ah Shang know that this is all clumsy, in order to make the emperor think that the Zheng family has no successor, In order to dispel the emperor's vigilance, Qin Lanfeng himself is a family of military generals, and he is also suspicious of the emperor, and his merits are high, which is also a very painful thing.

"Don't beg, even if you ask Ah Shang again, you won't agree, don't you look at that Xiao Di, are you very interested in that maid now?" Qin Lanfeng said with a smile.

"I know", Zheng Ruihe pouted: "Don't I still have a glimmer of hope?" If Xiao Di really came to the door to ask for marriage, where would this put Murong Mansion's face, I am also thinking about Ah Shang, right, Ah Shang? As he spoke, Zheng Ruihe threw the conversation to Murong Shang.

Murong Shang's delicate face was slightly cold, obviously he was only eighteen this year, but he was indifferent at such a young age.
