Chapter 733: Yongqi

The three noble ladies of the clan, together with a woman in gorgeous clothes that the Xie family sisters had never seen before, walked over to the conservatory while laughing.

The woman in Chinese clothes also told the three girls: "I went to Cao Shuqing's banquet in the past, and I remember that their garden planted a few rare orchid plants, which were placed in this conservatory. It's been a few years, and I don't know if the famous bluegrass of that year is still there. I don't have a chance on weekdays, but now I finally come back to the old place, and I must come to take a look before I am willing. You have accompanied your aunt on this trip, and I will ask you to send you the jewelry booklet of the shop at home, which one you like, just ask! ”

The three noble ladies thanked each other and were very excited. This woman in Chinese clothes is the lord of Yongqi, although her father died early in the last years of the first emperor before experiencing the succession, and there is no brother to rely on, her husband's family is only an old noble, and some successors are weak, but she is deeply favored by the queen mother, so she is also quite face-saving in the clan. She inherited most of her deceased father's net worth and has countless properties under her name, among which a century-old jewelry shop is the most famous, and the precious jewelry produced by the shop every season is very popular. Although several noble ladies are from noble backgrounds, they have limited pocket money, and they are not able to buy expensive jewelry produced by their families every year. How could I be unhappy when I heard that I could receive a free gift today? I feel more and more that Aunt Yongqi is generous, and she can communicate more in the future.

The group walked to the door of the conservatory and found that there were people in the room.

Lan Shi and Xie Yinghui were sitting around a few pairs drinking tea, and when they saw someone coming, they immediately showed a look of surprise, and then got up and saluted with a smile: "It turned out to be the county lord of Yongqi." Lan Aya has seen the county lord. He also greeted the three nobles of the clan.

Although Xie Yinghui didn't like one of the enemies, at this moment, she didn't dare to mess around, and she had to protect her second sister, so she smiled and saluted with the Lan family.

The county lord of Yongqi also seemed to be quite surprised that the Lan family would appear here, and she didn't expect that there were other people here besides the Lan family, and when she heard that it was the Xie family sisters, she couldn't figure it out: "Even if you are the master of Guiyuan and are not invited, how can you appear at the banquet of the eldest princess?!" ”

Dealing with this kind of thing with nobles, Xie Yinghui is much more skilled and experienced than Xie Mulin, and immediately replied: "The eldest princess of Yongning and His Royal Highness King Yan summoned me and the four brothers and sisters, and allowed our brothers and sisters to play in the garden afterwards. My sisters were blessed by the eldest princess and His Royal Highness King Yan to enjoy the scenery here. ”

The county lord of Yongqi was still a little reluctant: "Since you want to enjoy the scenery, what are you doing here in this conservatory?" What is there to see here?! ”

Xie Yinghui's rival laughed, raised her sleeves and said, "Could it be that you are ashamed to see me and other old people, so you specially hid?" It's a pity, fate is really unclear. Didn't we meet again? ”

Xie Yinghui secretly gritted her teeth and said with a dry smile: "The county lord said that he was laughing. After our sisters withdrew from the water pavilion, we wandered along the pool all the way here, and suddenly remembered an interesting story when we were children, so we came to revisit some old things, and we didn't want to meet Miss Lan, and we talked to Miss Lan, so we simply stayed and chatted for a while. It is indeed a rare fate to meet the county lord. ”

The county lord sneered, looked at her with disdain, and turned his head away disinterestedly. In her eyes, Xie Yinghui is already a loser, and she is still a noble daughter of the clan. Beating the water dogs is too cheap to be worthy of her identity. Thinking about it carefully, the grudge between the two back then was actually deliberately done by Cao Wenheng, so what's the point of thinking about it now? She's not so stingy!

Although the county lord of the wrong family said in a bad tone, he really planned to let Xie Yinghui go. The county lord of Yongqi looked a little bad. It's just that the Xie family sisters couldn't pick out the thorns, so she could only turn her eyes to the Lan family: "Why did you come here?" Still alone in such a secluded place?! ”

Lan Shi showed a shy smile and covered his mouth and said, "His Royal Highness has asked me to meet here, let me wait for him!" ”

The face of the county lord of Yongqi changed: "Hugh wants to talk nonsense!" “

"It's true!" Lan simply covered half of her face with her sleeve, only letting people see a slight flush on her face, "He went to the Water Pavilion to meet the eldest princess and His Royal Highness King Yan, let me wait for him here quietly." ”

The news that the third prince went to the Water Pavilion was naturally told to the Lan family by the Xie family sisters, but the Yongqi County Lord knew that the Lan family could not know in advance. However, the three nieces of the clan behind her clearly saw that the third prince was indeed going in the direction of the Water Pavilion, and there were also the second prince with him, which made it seem that the Lan family was telling the truth.

Immediately, a noble lady of the clan quipped: "The third highness is not obvious on weekdays, but I didn't expect to be quite close to the third sister-in-law in private." ”

The other two remembered the rumors in the clan, and they felt a little strange in their hearts, smiling silently.

The county lord of Yongqi looked at the Lan clan, and his expression changed: "Since His Royal Highness wants you to wait for him here, what is the matter with the sisters of the Xie family?!" ”

Lan Shi lowered his head embarrassedly and blushed and said, "I've been waiting here for a long time, but I haven't seen the Third Highness come down, and I can't sit still." It happened that the two Miss Xie were passing by, so I left them to talk and pass the time. Don't worry, the county lord can rest assured, I arranged for the girl to guard at the intersection, and when the Third Highness comes over, the girl will signal, and I will also send the two Xie girls away in advance. ”

Xie Yinghui squeezed out a smile: "It is also an honor for our sisters to be able to make friends and chat with the future third princess. ”

Everything is so normal and harmonious that no one can fault anything.

The county lord of Yongqi was not in a bad mood at all. Things had apparently changed, and she couldn't complete her mission.

Xie Yinghui's family was a little impatient, and looked at the county lord of Yongqi in confusion: "Auntie, what's wrong?" Didn't we come to see the bluegrass? "Why did you just stare at the Lan family and the Xie family sisters when you came? Although she had heard that the three princes did not like the Lan family, but the holy decree was issued, the Lan family would be the third princess in the future, why should the county lord of Yongqi be so rude? Didn't you say that the county lord of Yongqi and Concubine Xiao Guifei have always been good friends?

As soon as Xie Yinghui heard it, she knew that the county lord of Yongqi must be an accomplice of the third prince, and the so-called orchid grass or something was naturally an excuse for her to come to the greenhouse, so she smiled: "I disappointed the county lord, when my mother left, she brought the precious flowers in the greenhouse back to Pingnanbo Mansion with the florist, and now I don't even know my whereabouts." There are only some ordinary flowers and plants left in the conservatory, and only those who love tranquility will come here to rest. ”

The enemy pouted: "What's the point of that?" Your Xie family is too useless. 's own garden was hollowed out by the Cao family, and now it has become a place for some chaotic people to drink and feast, and they have failed the good scenery in this garden in vain! ”

Xie Yinghui took a deep breath, and instead of being angry, she laughed: "The county lord is right. The Cao family is powerful, what can we do with a small family? To be able to get back to Guiyuan is already a great grace! ”

At this time, the prince of Fenyang was humming a minor tune that he didn't know where to play, and slowly walked over from the east path, and when he saw everyone here, he paused, and then took a deep look at the county lord of Yongqi, and then asked his sister with a smile: "Why are you here?" Didn't you say fishing by the edge of the pool? I'm just trying to take a shortcut to you! After speaking, he glanced at the Lan family, his face full of amazement, "The third princess is also here?" What a fate! ”

His sister knew at a glance that her brother's old problem of being so beautiful had been committed again, and she rolled her eyes: "Let's go and go, let's go back fishing, don't talk about any messy fate!" ”

Wang Shizi of Fenyang followed his sister forward along the river, but suddenly saw the third prince running over with excitement on his face: "What's wrong?!" Lan, what the hell have you done?! ”

Everyone had inexplicable expressions.
