The hall has long been full of sheng songs, musicians dancing, surrounded by silk and bamboo.

The princes and ministers who sat down frequently raised their glasses, a good scene of singing and dancing and peace, Bu Tong was unwilling to mix, turned his head to find a remote position to sit down, this side stuffed a mouthful of lotus paste cake, Princess Rong Ping dragged a gorgeous red palace dress and sat next to Bu Tong, and looked angry,

"Sister step, why did you come here dressed like this, and now you can eat?"

These words attracted a lot of attention from the surroundings, Butong choked on a mouthful of lotus paste cake, and he didn't swallow it, and it was not good to vomit, and he was almost choked.

Taking the tea handed over by Chun Tao, Bu Tong was able to take a breath, and he was puzzled while brushing his chest,

"What does the Ninth Princess mean by this, am I doing something wrong again?"

Rong Ping frowned tightly and snorted, "Sixth brother, today, I want to bring a new side concubine." ”

Bu Tong hurriedly sorted out the huge royal family of the ninth princess, and was surprised that he was busy "teasing" Tang Xuanlin for a while, and he forgot that Mu Hequan had married the "beloved" Buyu, and now the newlywed Yan'er coincided with the Mid-Autumn Festival, such a feast, how could he not bring her to say hello?

Bu Tong looked around, naturally smiled at Tang Xuanlin behind Mu Hesheng, and then turned around and shook his head,

"I didn't see it, isn't there something delayed?"

The ninth princess pointed to sit down angrily, "Naturally, it's here, it's not in front of my father." ”

Bu Tong crossed the crowd of people, and then saw Mu Hesheng and Bu Yu, kneeling respectfully under the royal palace to obey, "hehe" smiled,

"The first Mid-Autumn Festival of the prince's newlywed, he naturally has to take the bride to meet His Majesty and the Queen, why not?"

The ninth princess looked at the side angrily and gritted her teeth, "But a side concubine, how can she enjoy the honor of being a concubine, it must be that concubine, and her clever words have deceived the sixth brother." ”

Bu Tong raised his eyebrows and reached out to smooth Rong Ping's frowning brows,

"After all, it was His Majesty's marriage, even if it was a side concubine, if you don't thank you, wouldn't there be no rules?"

When the ninth princess heard this, she pouted angrily, "Sister Step really doesn't care like this, in vain I heard that Sister Step came here today with simple clothes and easy makeup, and I was quite sad." That's why I came over to persuade me, but I didn't expect you to be so indifferent......"

Bu Tong smiled, reached out and hugged the arm of the ninth princess,

"I know that Rong Ping is the best, but I already have a sweetheart, Rong Ping is the first to know, that person is not the sixth prince, why should I worry about my sister's marriage to him?"

The ninth princess thought about it carefully, and felt that it made sense, and then she also returned to her usual eccentricity, and pulled Bu Tong to whisper, "Sister Bu, look at the commander on my father's side." ”

Bu Tong glanced at it, His Majesty's side was meticulously staring at Yun Fang of everyone present, and in everyone's harmony, the serious and cautious appearance was particularly eye-catching,

"Isn't it Lord Yun, the Grand Commander of the Imperial Guard?"

The ninth princess looked away very shyly, and pulled Butong by the way,

"Yes, it's him, Sister Bu, don't keep staring at others, how embarrassed."

Bu Tong spread his hands, and by the way, he pointed to Yunfang in the distance, and he couldn't cry or laugh.

"In this hall, there are nearly 200 people, he guards the safety of His Majesty, and only keeps an eye on the younger generations, so he won't look at us the children of the last family."

The ninth princess instantly became nervous with Bu Tong's movements, and threw her arm down,

"Sister Bu, don't point fingers at him, Commander Yun has always been astute, he must be able to see it."

Bu Tong looked at her rare nervous and shy appearance, and naturally had a number in his heart, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at the ninth princess with slightly red cheeks and looked away, biting her ears quietly,

"Rong Ping, aren't you, do you also have a sweetheart?"

Rong Ping, who has never been in shape, actually lowered his head and stirred the silk handkerchief at this time,

"Sister Bu, don't make fun of me, Commander Yun is upright, he can't make such jokes."

Bu Tong patted her little hand with a deliberate feeling,

"The Yun family has guarded the palace wall for generations, and it has been re-established by His Majesty, and now that he is here in Yunfang, he is already the commander of the imperial guards at a young age, and if the princess is willing to marry, Yunfang is barely worthy of it."

Hearing this, Rong Ping's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was very excited to hold Bu Tong's hand, "What Sister Bu said is true?" ”

Bu Tong nodded and was about to persuade her to go to His Majesty as soon as possible, lest His Majesty not know what was going on with his daughter, and send her out to kiss her in the future, but a female voice suddenly came from beside her,

"Why is Ah Tong sitting at the end of this seat, but I can find it."

The ninth princess's smile was cleaned for a while, and she turned to the side to eat the fruit with an expressionless face, Bu Tong turned her head and looked at the gorgeous clothes on her body, and Bu Yu Huanting, who was full of pearls, sat down and looked carefully, "How ......is Ah Tong dressed up today?"

Bu Tong stretched out his hand and stroked his step,

"Eldest sister, don't be weird, Tong'er has found a new object, and it needs to be matched like this to be chic."

Rong Ping stepped aside and suddenly spoke, "I look at Sister Bu's dress is very pleasing to the eye, luxurious and refined, light and cute, if you are dressed as a woman in the palace, isn't it too cumbersome and cumbersome, and what is the difference between it and ordinary vulgar powder?" ”

Bu Yu smiled and nodded, without the slightest embarrassment, "What the ninth princess said is that the princess is also solemn and proud today, and I am ashamed of myself." ”

I'm the one who deserves to be ashamed, right? You can bend and stretch like this, which is really beyond the reach of ordinary people. Bu Tong looked at her still calm and breezy face, and complained in his heart.

Rong Ping's palace dress and phoenix crown are not cumbersome, after all, the royal princess must have this dignified appearance.

Rong Ping didn't want to talk, so he got up and prepared to leave, "Sister Bu, I haven't made any compensation for soiling your silk handkerchief last time, and my father rewarded a few good ones a few days ago, you can pick one with me." ”

Bu Tong was pulled up by Rong Ping, and Bu Yu got up and said softly, "Since the princess shouted 'Sister Bu', I don't know if the concubine is bare, so I will go to the princess to have a look?" ”

Bu Tong looked at Bu Yu's familiar appearance, and spoke steadily and humbly, as if it was his fault to refuse her request, Rong Ping glanced at her,

"Why is this so awkward, do I know you well? Let's not talk about this 'step sister' If you respond, it is still arrogant, just say that you are the side concubine of my sixth brother, that is, the concubine room, I talk to the concubine of the Nanguo Mansion, you come in and interject in vain It is a mess of the rules of respect and inferiority, and now you still say some such words to make a fake orangutan appearance, the six brothers and the three concubines, there is no such ignorance of the system as you. ”

After that, he pulled Bu Tong and left in the ears of the surrounding ladies, Bu Tong's heart was already happy, and he secretly admired Rong Ping's slap to the point, but he still looked embarrassed and glanced at Bu Yu, Bu Yu had to squeeze out a reluctant smile and shook his head lightly at Bu Tong to say that he was fine.

The ninth princess naturally didn't have a handkerchief to give Butong, the conflict of Fang Cai had already been seen in the eyes, as soon as she got out of the palace door, she was called away by her grandmother, Butong simply sat in the pavilion next to the side hall for a while, Chun Tao followed and stood behind her, "Miss, it's cool outside." ”

Butong shook his head slightly,

"It's too noisy in the hall, so I'll blow the wind here and wait for Rong Ping to come back."

Mu Hequan turned around on the corridor opposite, watched Bu Tong finish chanting this sentence, and slowly stepped forward and said aloud,

"The ninth sister was called by the queen mother to reprimand, I'm afraid that she won't be able to come back for a while, Miss Bu is waiting for her here, and she will definitely catch a cold when she returns home."

Bu Tong got up and saluted, scolding him a few times in his heart, so that he could speak calmly, "It's just a few gossip from my daughter's family, and I have to worry about it, but I just saw the eldest sister, and I saw that I was a little thinner." ”

Mu Hequan didn't expect Butong to be such an unfriendly question, but he didn't get angry, but sat down opposite Butong,

"Miss Bu is blaming me for not taking good care of Yu'er?"

Butong shook his head and smiled distantly.

Mu Hequan looked at Bu Tong and suddenly spoke, "I heard that the two young ladies of the Bu family have not been close since they were children. ”

Bu Tong faintly felt that there seemed to be other intentions in these words, so he had to play Tai Chi with him.

"His Royal Highness the Sixth Forgiveness, I was young and ignorant in the past, and the eldest sister didn't grow up in the yard, so it was inevitable that I would be a little rusty, and I missed the sisterhood, which was the fault of Butong."

Mu Hequan shook his head with a smile, his eyes seemed to be flashing, "I am synchronized with Yu, it is not a rumor from the outside world, the matter of Sipa is also a pure misunderstanding, if I am bent on marrying the young lady of the Nanguo Mansion, I must also ask to marry the concubine, so as not to live up to the Lord of the Nanguo." ”

Bu Tong sneered in his heart: It turns out that you are waiting for me here? co-authored the snub of Buyu or to show sincerity.

I don't carry this cauldron.

Butong bowed his head, looking respectful and docile,

"Your Majesty gave you a marriage, and my father should be grateful for the grace of God, and I dare not ask for anything about him, Your Highness's words can make my father have no place to deal with."

Mu Hequan was stunned for a moment and hurriedly explained, "It's a gaffe, Lord Nanguo is loyal and the pillar of the country, but I feel a little sorry for it, and now at such an age, it is the time to set up the main room, but I can't think of it in my heart." ”

Bu Tong got up, his face was cold, and he stared at Mu Hequan a little flustered before he spoke,

"His Royal Highness and his sister exchanged personal tokens, promising each other for life, what is the misunderstanding, my sister cleared her name to Your Highness, if Your Highness heard this, she would be sad and sad. Moreover, His Majesty gave the marriage, and the Nanguo Mansion thanked the emperor for his grace, and asked His Highness to be cautious. ”

After saying that, he made a salute, "Bu Tong is still in the boudoir, and now he has exceeded the rules for getting along with His Royal Highness in private, and Bu Tong has retreated." ”

The moment he turned around, he seemed to feel that he had just said something decisive, and Bu Tong looked back at Mu Hequan with a stunned face,

"Your Highness, it's impossible, thinking too much about it will only hurt your heart, please let Your Highness take care of the moment."

After speaking, he quickly slipped away, and without hesitation, Chun Tao followed behind him and muttered in a low voice, "Who are these six highnesses?" I just married someone from the Nanguo Mansion, and now I am thinking about Miss again, is it possible that I still want to sit on the Empress E? ”

Bu Tong smiled coldly, "What do you mean by being him?" Empress E's daughter Yingzhifu has no hope, but now she is unwilling to give up the help of the Nanguo Mansion, which is really persistent. ”

Chun Tao didn't hear the second half of the muttering, but hated it, "Although Chun Tao doesn't like Miss Yu, but now her situation doesn't seem to be taken seriously, and there are still ladies who don't know which family are coldly talking to her, Chun Tao is a little sad to see it, but Miss, what you said last time, how did you say something ......."

Butong stopped, under the dim palace lights at night, the sideburns were fluorescent, and the beautiful face was even more delicate and lovely.

"I just want to teach him a lesson, but when I forget him, I provoke him, that is, to give him a little ambiguous thought, so that I can give him a blow."

Chun Tao nodded as if she didn't understand, "Chun Tao listens to Miss's orders." ”

Back in the hall, the palace banquet has been more than half, the wine is more than half of the people have been talking and laughing, there is no usual rules and respects, Bu Tong just left the position sat a woman in white clothes and simple makeup, cold and noble, seeing Bu Tong coming, then turned his head and apologized to explain, "Miss don't blame, my side arrived, there is no vacancy in the hall, look at no one here, this is ......"

"Sister-in-law......" Bu Tong's throat seemed to be stuffed with a thousand gold and heavy iron, and suddenly it was so heavy that it was indescribable, and the person in front of him was clearly the only daughter of the Duke of Beiguo and his future sister-in-law, Bai Peony.

It's just that later the elder brother was martyred, leaving the orphans and widows at home to be miserable, and later the family was raided and destroyed, Bai Peony would rather die than flee alone, and finally blocked an arrow for Mrs. Qi and left with hatred......

Bu Tong's eyes were covered with a layer of mist, he thought that the white peony was a marriage given by His Majesty, and the goddess of Gao Leng was quite unworthy of her brother, but in the end it seemed that she was also a bold woman, Bu Tong lowered her eyebrows and sat down on her side,

"It's okay, meeting is fate, why don't we sit at the same table?"

Bai Peony chuckled and nodded, Bu Tong looked at her appearance, and thought it was extraordinarily good-looking, and couldn't help but talk,

"Miss Zhong Lingyuxiu, extraordinary, I don't know where the young lady is?"

Bai Peony saluted slightly, "Northern Mansion, White Peony." ”

Bu Tong followed and saluted, "Hello Miss Bai, I am Bu Tong from the Nanguo Mansion." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Bu Yiyang ran in from the outside in a hurry, "Tong'er, you ran there, but my brother looked for you for a long time, and he hid here!" ”

Bu Tong thought that this stupid big brother didn't want to lose face in front of his future daughter-in-law, so he hurriedly stopped him from behind.

"I went out with the Ninth Princess just now and sat in the side hall for a while, brother, this is the ...... of the Northern Mansion"

Bu Yiyang didn't notice his little sister's "good intentions" at all, and waved his hand to interrupt her.

"Guess what I just saw? I brought a congratulatory gift to Yu'er, and I happened to see two side rooms of the Six Princes' Mansion bullying her! ”

Bu Tong was embarrassed for a moment, "The two side concubines also entered the palace?" ”

This was unexpected.

Bu Yiyang frowned angrily, and the arrogant anger of the soldiers was undoubted, "He is an ordinary family in our Nanguo Mansion, and he should take good care of himself after marrying Yu'er, and he actually brought three side concubines into the palace for a banquet, those two women were very pretentious and arrogant, and the two of them jointly ridiculed Yu'er, if it wasn't for the connivance of the lord, how could he be so coquettish!" ”

Bu Tong flicked his forehead slightly, sighing that the first impression of his eldest brother leaving a future sister-in-law was probably very indescribable.

"Brother is compassionate, Tong'er understands, but this matter of the back house should not be interfered with by the brother, it is better to hand it over to the little sister, the little sister is not good, there is still a mother at home, and the Royal Highness of the Sixth Prince must give a good explanation."

When Bu Yiyang heard this, he slightly loosened his brows and got up to leave.

Bu Tong sighed quietly, turned his stiff neck and carefully looked at the sister-in-law on the side, Bai Peony has always been high, the most noble girl in the family is full of poetry and books, does not like vulgar things, Bu Tong can not imagine that such a woman as noble as a lotus flower will be assigned to marry the eldest brother in the future, what kind of mental journey will be.

However, contrary to Bu Tong's imagination, Bai Peony's unfazed eyes revealed a bright light, and he left with Bu Yiyang's figure, Bu Tong was stunned: Could it be that Bai Peony likes a reckless and simple man like Bu Yiyang? It's really subversive and reversed enough.

Left and right his sister-in-law looked at her brother correctly, Bu Tong naturally had nothing to worry about, looking at the brocade box left by Bu Yiyang in front of him, the corners of his mouth slowly raised a cunning arc,

"Mu Hequan, you came to provoke it, so naturally I can't blame me."
