111. Birthday party

I was still taking a nap, and I was picked up by Xing Shen from the next dynasty to attend the birthday banquet of the third princess - as his entourage...... One.

This banquet is very unfriendly to Wuduan, today is also her birthday, she will be ridiculed and can only rub her sister's birthday, and if she doesn't go, she will be told not to give her twin sister face, she simply doesn't care about gossip, she does it casually, and says it before eating in the morning, and she can't go after eating noodles.

Suzu didn't want to miss the opportunity to laugh at Wuduan with others, so he had to follow.

Xing Shen figured out my guts, and expected that I would not dare to fall into the wind Xiaoxiao, and I searched in the mansion several times but did not find her, and when I arrived at the Third Princess's Mansion, I realized that she had been invited separately as the leader of the martial arts alliance.

The banquet was full of young faces, including Xie Shenyan's brother and sister-in-law, Xie Jinxing and his wife, classmates of the Xie brothers, and Xinke Jinshi, in short, in addition to the emperor's relatives and relatives, they are all sesame officials, and there is a group of capable people, all over all walks of life.

In the future, the countrylessness will depend on a few outstanding members of this group of young people.

The Xie family has never served as a minister, but their status is above the court, because they are the teachers of the minister.

They helped the children of the gentlemen to cheat in the imperial examinations, and then used their money to subsidize the poor scholars, not to rob the rich and help the poor, but to cast a wide net and recruit talents from all over the world.

No matter how the imperial power changes, the imperial court needs talents, and they control talents, and no emperor dares to offend them. During the Warring States Period, they did not fight for power and hegemony on their own, but dispersed and exported talents, established themselves in troubled times, and prospered for hundreds of years.

The reform of the imperial examination will put an end to the glory of the Xie family.

The disadvantages of the imperial examination have long appeared, but more than half of the court are protΓ©gΓ©s of the Xie family, and the emperor wants to change it, but no one has done it, so he threw this hot potato to me, not their friends, the background is hard, and there is the support of the queen mother, which is the most suitable.

In public and private, it is impossible for the Xie family to be good friends with me, but Xingshen was warmly welcomed by the Xie family, and was pulled by Xie Shenyan and Xie Jinxing to talk about homely things, Wuling quickly mingled with a group of young women, gossiping about the gap between the two princesses, laughing at Wuduo for playing a good hand of cards, all of which she did herself, and even counted the cause of the war between Wuguo and Luotang on her head, blaming her for not fulfilling her duty as a princess.

Hmph, if you were abandoned by your father, husband, and country one after another, and witnessed your father designing his brother to kill his lover, how many of you could be as strong as Wudu?

"Don't laugh at people, because you don't know what other people have been through!" I was so angry that I yelled at a group of long-tongued women.

When they saw my face and my maid suit, Suzu became the object of their ridicule again:

"Concubine Lingbian, your family is too ignorant, and you dare to accuse your master! If only I would tear her mouth apart. ”

"She's not an ordinary maid, do you see the scar on her face? She's Jin Lian, haven't you heard? She dominated His Royal Highness King Yu night and night, and Concubine Ling had fallen out of favor, so she was ridden above her head by a subordinate. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Wuling was still laughing at others just now, but in a blink of an eye, she became the object of ridicule and put the account on my head, and when she was about to settle the account, she realized that I was no longer there.

The princess's mansion was originally the site of Wuduan and Wuyan, and when the construction started, Wuduan and his relatives went, and the homestead was owned by Wuyan alone, with a vast area and winding paths, I left the butterfly garden, where the banquet was located, looking for the direction in which Xingshen left, and met them halfway.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Xie Jinxing asked vigilantly, and Xie Shenyan had already seized my pulse.

Xingshen just looked at me playfully and said with his lips, "Please start your performance." ”

I broke free from Xie Shenyan's grip, rubbed my wrist and complained, "It hurts! Why are you working so hard? Xie Shenyan didn't mean to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and the murderous aura around me enveloped me.

I glanced at Xingshen, turned back and counted the account of how ugly I had become, looked up at Xie Shenyan pitifully, and huddled together with my facial features and covered my stomach and said, "I, I'm looking for a toilet." ”

"Over there." Xie Shenyan pointed in the opposite direction when I came, the road was designed in the shape of a tree, there were treetops on that side, and each branch led to a garden.

Xing Shen smiled and said: "This girl has a bad mind, the princess's mansion is too big for her, I will go with her, it just so happens that I also want to make it convenient." ”

Xingshen was very familiar with taking me into a fork in the road, and at the end of the road was the "Yuanyuan".

We looked at each other for a long time, but we never entered the garden and turned back.

"What are you thinking?" Xingshen asked.

I said, "Why didn't you kill me?" ”

Xing Shen said: "It also depends on the owner to beat the dog. ”

I shook my head: "It's not them, it's you, you and the forces behind you. ”

Xing Shen smiled and asked, "What do you think?" ”

The butterfly garden reappeared in front of me, and the noise was noisy, and I kept it out.

Why don't you kill me, but let me watch Xingshen play with my life as a bystander.

- Because of hatred.
