Chapter 7 Pastries
"Second sister! Second sister, listen to me! The news in the palace has come out, saying that the East Palace favors the second sister, not only the second sister is allowed to dine with him, but also gives a plate of dumplings. To be able to enter the East Palace Eye, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky! My father and mother also heard about it, and they looked at you differently, so they agreed, and they could give you the name of the side room......" Shen Yu was anxious.
"Side room?"
Hua Er chuckled, and a chill rose on his face: "Little Hou Ye's kindness, Hua Er doesn't dare to climb high." ”
"Second sister, don't worry! Although it is a side room, I will treat you like a wife, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation will definitely not be bad! Shen Yu swore an oath, and he almost swore to the sky.
Hua Er turned his head lightly: "Little Hou Ye, if I marry someone in this life, I will marry someone who is sincere, and I am the only one in this life." ”
"This?" Shen Yu hesitated.
"That's it. If this night feast is to listen to these words. Now that I have heard it, the folk girl said goodbye. Hua Er smiled and was about to bow and leave.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of laughter like silver bells.
"Just a few people, being able to say these words really opened Ah Yin's eyes."
The incense wind struck, and a woman came from a distance, wearing a dingdong, and heard the sound before anyone arrived.
Hua Er was stunned.
Isn't this the last palace beauty who left with the East Palace on that day?
Shen Yu smiled and hurried up: "Sister! You are not in good health, and the wind is cold at night, what are you doing when you come out? ”
The beauty patted Shen Yu's hand affectionately, and her eyes turned to Hua Er: "This is the girl you want after grinding your father and mother for a long time to let them loosen their mouths?" ”
"Exactly! Her name is Hua Er, and she is the shopkeeper of Jixiang Shop! Second sister, come to see my sister! Shen Yu pulled Hua Er over.
Hua Er sank into his heart. He knelt down with a gentle expression: "The second daughter of the people, meet the eldest girl." ”
Shen Yu's sister, the sister of the Marquis of Pyeongchang, Shen Yin.
Wealthy family background, noble background, and dignified and courteous, virtuous and virtuous, has always been praised by the world, the emperor and the queen also like, called her into the palace, for the Kangning Emperor Ji to read, so that he grew up with the East Palace, others can not compare.
Even on the day of this Shen Da girl and Lu, she was given the same jade pendant as the East Palace, which has the meaning of matching the East Palace.
It's just that this big girl is not in good health, and she gets sick every once in a while, and the matter of the East Palace has been dragging on.
However, it was also a secret that Sheng Jing had opened, so that those daughters who coveted the handsome appearance of the East Palace did not dare to think about it.
"No need to be polite. I think we've seen that. Shen Yin held his hand and smiled gracefully.
Hua Er got up, glanced at Shen Yin quietly, and couldn't help sighing, what a beauty.
With a black and oily cicada wing bun on his head, a ten-panel colored striped skirt, a rose and purple two-color shirt, and a honey-colored silk silk jacket, one color and half new but not old, it looks luxurious, but it does not lose its identity.
The lips are red without dotting, the eyebrows are green without painting, the face is like a silver basin, and the eyes are like apricots. The whole body is quiet and dignified, and the cherished beauty is closed during the day.
Hua Er was looking at Shen Yin, and Shen Yin was also looking at Hua Er.
Her beautiful eyes turned, and she covered her lips and smiled: "Look at the girl's full body, she doesn't look like a subordinate, but like a daughter of a family like me." ”
Hua Er was still extremely humble, and Yifu said: "The big girl praises falsely." Although there are a few wisps of fragrance in the small flowers in the suburbs, where can they be compared with Shengjing peony. ”
Shen Yin's smile became stronger: "Look, not only the little face Zhou Zheng, but also the speech is so Zhouzheng." ”
Shen Yu listened happily and pulled Shen Yin: "Why did my sister come here suddenly?" ”
Shen Yin looked at Dazzle Er deeply: "It's not me, it's another distinguished guest." I arrived early with him, and after listening to the corner for a long time, he broke in at this time, and I didn't know what to hurry. ”
Hua Er and Shen Yu were stunned.
Suddenly, there was a cough, and when a touch of silver-gray robe appeared in the field, everyone brushed and bowed down.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhao Xixing picked up a seat in front of the case and sat down, and bowed lightly: "Get up." ”
"Your Highness!" Everyone got up, still bowing their heads and eyes, standing in a row on the side of the desk, five steps away from Zhao Xixing.
"Didn't you say that the Hou Shizi of Pyeongchang held a banquet? That is, what are you doing standing at the feast? Sit. Zhao Xixing said clearly.
"Panic! How dare the ministers dine with His Highness! Shen Yu leaned over and hugged his fist, and he didn't dare to raise his head.
Zhao Xixing raised his eyebrows, moved his chopsticks, and put the side dishes in his mouth: "Today, regardless of monarchs and ministers, only about world friends." Sit down. ”
The Marquis of Pyeongchang is the first contributor to assist today's saints to ascend to the throne of God, and he has followed the saints for half his life, and he has always admired them.
Shen Yu and Shen Yin glanced at each other, no longer shirked, and sat down in the farthest position from Zhao Xixing, but they were both restless.
After all, this Donggong, who is so perfect that he is almost a saint, acts unkindly, except for the time with Hua Er, he never eats in the same hall with his subjects, and if he violates his rules, he can cause great trouble.
There was only one person left standing. She tried to keep her head low, trying to make everyone in the audience forget that she existed.
However, although Zhao Xixing didn't look at her, his fingertips rubbed the wine cup and said, "Stand...... Not afraid of losing your head? ”
Hua Er and everyone were stunned.
Shen Yu was the first to understand. Secretly tugged on Hua Er's coat: "Hurry up and sit down!" Your Highness has allowed you to dine with us! Otherwise, you will lose your head! ”
Hua Er had to follow, but when he looked at the location, Shen Yu and Shen Yin occupied the farthest place from Zhao Xixing, and the rest was only the position next to Zhao Xixing.
Do you want her to sit next to the East Palace?
Hua Er is in a dilemma, and he can't advance or retreat.
It was this moment of hesitation, Zhao Xixing seemed to sigh lightly, and immediately his fingertips touched the sword at his waist.
Shen Yu and Shen Yin were shocked. Hua Er felt a pain in the blood stains on her neck, she could understand the character of this East Palace a little.
So I didn't dare to delay in the slightest. She decisively sat down next to Zhao Xixing, who took her fingertips off the saber.
The table was full of delicacies and wine, but except for Zhao Xixing, the four of them all felt that it was difficult to swallow, and every time they moved their chopsticks, they had to recite the rules a hundred times more silently, for fear that if they were not careful, they would anger Tianyan.
There was a strange scene in the water pavilion.
Zhao Xixing ate quietly and elegantly, his eyes did not squint, the breeze was bright and the moon was bright, while Shen Yu and Shen Yin were like facing a great enemy, and their bodies were stiff.
Hua Er, who was closest to Zhao Xixing, didn't dare to move, and sat with his head down, just looking at his eyes.
Today's East Palace, I don't know if it was because of the banquet in the Hou Mansion, I dressed up at home.
Wrapped in silk and gold, hanging down two tassels, the end of the bright moon falls, and the black hair is scattered behind the shoulders, exuding a scent of soaphorn that has just been bathed.
Dressed in a silver-gray home-style shirt, embroidered with a unicorn dragon with dark gold thread, the dragon flew and the phoenix danced when walking, and it was pure and noble.
Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, red lips and white teeth, no matter which angle you look at, it looks so good.
"Not to taste?" Zhao Xixing's clear voice came from beside him.
Hua Er came back to his senses and realized that he was asking himself who was sitting down, so he hurriedly picked up the jade and forked it towards a chestnut cake at random.
And at the moment when the jade arrived at the chestnut cake, another pair of jade was not impartial, and it happened to be forked towards that piece.
Bang. The two pairs of jade touched each other and froze in mid-air.
Hua Er looked up cautiously, and when he saw the owner of the jade with one foot in his hand, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Zhao Xixing.
