Chapter 39: The Liang Mansion
Zhang sighed slightly, it seems that this prince of Wei is really in demand.
"However, I heard my cousin say that although the third princess has been in love with the prince of Wei since she was a child, the prince has not been in love with her, and she has always avoided the third princess." Tonghui bit her lip and said again.
The Zhang family understood that the county lord was really in love with this prince.
She frowned invisibly, it was really difficult to get the favor of such a sought-after son.
Zhang Shi smiled on his face and comforted: "This is not a difficult matter, the county lord doesn't have to think too complicated, this person's taste is different, how can we know if it's okay if we don't try it?" ”
"Really?" Tonghui's cheeks were flushed, and there was suddenly hope in her big eyes, and she looked at Zhang with burning eyes, hoping that she could tell herself a positive answer.
Zhang stiffened his head and nodded with a forced smile.
Tonghui's mood suddenly improved, and she said happily: "Then when I come back from the Liang Mansion, let's make a good total, and we have to send someone to quietly inquire about the whereabouts of the prince." ”
The more she thought about it, the happier she became, she stood up briskly, and said to Zhang's coquettishly: "Nurse, I'm a little hungry and I didn't eat enough just now, I want to drink some porridge." ”
"Okay, I'll go and get someone to bring it." Zhang said with a smile.
She knew that the county lord would be hungry in a short time, and when she saw that the county lord wanted to open, she was also relieved, and quickly called the maid to get porridge.
It's summer, and it's getting earlier and earlier this day.
Tong Yan got up early in the morning, was dressed up in a daze, had breakfast to her heart's content, and went to the princess's Qingyuanzhai surrounded by maids.
After greeting the princess first, the three sisters could take a carriage to the Liang Mansion together.
The princess wore a string of Canaan wood beads around her neck and sat upright.
The three of them arrived at the main room at about the same time.
Tongyue is very honest and looks a lot more restrained, Tonghui has a soft smile on her face, but she is a little alienated from Tongyan, and her eyes deliberately avoid her.
The princess smiled at them, seemingly kind, but her mouth taught a lesson: "The three of you go to the Liang Mansion as guests, but you must be cautious in your words and deeds, don't lose the face of the palace, you know?" Especially Tongyue. ”
Her eyes fell on Tongyue's body, "Don't talk nonsense. And you are sisters, take good care of your sisters. ”
Her gaze swept over Tong Hui and Tong Yan's faces, and finally stopped at Tong Yan's face, her eyes were like a secluded pool, and she said slowly: "And Tong Yan, although you are from outside, you can't lose the face of the palace." ”
Tong Yan felt that the two words outside the princess's mouth seemed to accentuate the pronunciation.
The princess retracted her gaze and smiled kindly, "You three sisters, let's have fun, it's also beneficial and harmless to get to know more young ladies of the family, let's go quickly." ”
Tong Yan felt that maybe she was thinking too much.
The three of them responded in unison and left Qingyuanzhai together.
The carriage was parked outside the princess's courtyard, there were three in total, Tong Yan smiled politely at the two of them, Tong Hui also replied with a detached smile, Tong Yue pulled the corners of her mouth, and the three of them were helped into the carriage by the maids.
In this way, except for the sound of the wheel, the three carriages drove quietly all the way to the Liang Mansion.
After getting out of the carriage, they had already entered the front yard of the Liang Mansion, and a little maid came to guide them, and told them with a smile that only Miss Jiang San came, and she had just arrived, and the three of them came early.
The little maid led them all the way to the garden of Liang's mansion, and Miss Liang came out to greet them when she heard the sound.
Compared with that day in the palace, Miss Liang looked a little warmer, of course, it was only relatively hot, she was wearing a red Luo skirt and painted red lipstick, which made her look very good.
"The county lord of Zhaoyang, the county lord of Wen'an, and the county lord of Qingping." She saluted.
The three of them returned the salute.
Miss Liang smiled faintly and said, "The three county lords, please come with me." ”
Tong Yan followed Liang Yunfu all the way, quietly looking at the landscape in the garden.
Although there is only one glimpse, it can be inferred that this garden is much smaller than the garden of King Yong's mansion. Different from the ingenuity and meticulous carving of the garden of Yongwangfu, the garden of Liangfu is more wanton and free, not decorated and carved, and quite natural and interesting.
Miss Liang didn't say a word all the way, but walked dignified and elegant to lead the way for them.
Tong Yan couldn't help but feel embarrassed, it was hard to imagine that such a flower viewing party was run by a taciturn person like Miss Liang.
The four of them were silent, walking quietly.
Miss Jiang San was dressed in a hibiscus-colored dress, sitting in the pavilion by the lake, leaning lazily on the vermilion lacquer pillar.
The graceful figure immediately attracted Tong Yan's attention.
Jiang Yao saw Miss Liang walking towards her with three noble girls, hurriedly stood up and straightened her skirt, and then went out.
Only then did she see that it was the three county lords of the Yongwang family, and greeted them in turn with a smile.
There is still a bit of timid innocence hidden in those eyes that have always been a little charming, which makes people feel a desire to protect.
Although Tongyue has little intersection with Miss Jiang San, she doesn't like Jiang Yao's foxy appearance in her heart, and she says that Jiang Yao is the first beauty in Beijing, but in her eyes, Jiang Yao may not even be able to compare with Qingping.
When she looked at Jiang Yao again, her eyes unconsciously had some disdain.
Jiang Yao saw it all in her eyes, and she was also very disdainful in her heart, Qingping, a little girl, had a mediocre appearance and ordinary talents, except that she was the daughter of King Yong, there was nothing outstanding about it, and she dared to look at her like this?
She sneered in her heart.
But she was still smiling on her face, and said enthusiastically: "The three county lords should sit down and rest for a while, and after a while, the nobles of all families will come, and this garden will be lively." ”
Although she said the three county lords in her mouth, her eyes were focused on Tong Yan's body.
Tong Yan had no choice but to smile and bow, didn't go to the pavilion, and sat directly on the stone bench in front of her.
Tonghui and Tongyue naturally sat down with them.
A little maid ran over and saluted, "Miss, the two young ladies of the Chen Shilang family of the household department are here." ”
Miss Liang waved her hand lightly, but sat down directly, seemingly not ready to go out to greet her.
The little maid hesitated for a moment, and then ran out again.
Tong Yan just thought that she was afraid that she would not be tired to death when she went out to greet her like this, it seemed that she wanted to go wrong, and she had a choice whether to welcome Xu or not.
The two young ladies of the Chen family look very similar, as if carved out of a mold, with a round face, although they are not very good-looking, but they are also better than the good looks, with a smile and two eyes that have become two lines, red lips, and a white and red face, which is a bit like a festive little doll portrait.
The two little girls were very lively and talkative, like two dexterous birds, and after meeting them, they freshly surrounded Tong Yan and chattered non-stop.
Miss Chen, who had a higher nose bridge, said happily: "You are the county lord of Zhaoyang, we have heard of your good name a long time ago, my name is Chen Tan, and I am my sister." The other nose was a little smaller and said with a smile: "My name is Chen Ran, and I am my sister." ”
Tong Yan said in her heart: I'm afraid no one will not like such a girl, it makes people feel happy to watch.
She was also infected by the cheerful atmosphere of the two, and said playfully: "The names of the two of you sisters are a bit tongue-twisting, Chen Tan, Chen Ran, Tan Ran, Tan Ran." ”
The two sisters were giggling, seeing that Zhaoyang was so approachable, they had a good impression in their hearts, and the two pulled her to ask questions, but they never asked about what happened before she came to the palace.
Tong Yan nodded secretly, these two little girls are very measured, although they are giggling on their faces, but what should be said and what should not be said is very clear, it can be seen that a person is smart or not, he can't look at people's personalities, he has to look at the details of his actions to see clearly.
