When they arrived at Qionghualin, the girls were almost all there, and they got together to talk. They walked in with the palace people who led the way, and Xiao Changying had already arrived and was accompanying Princess Baohui.

"You're here?" Bao Hui walked over, her hands clasped in her wide sleeves, and she nodded slightly, "The girls are here, please take a seat." ”

"Yes."

Song Yansheng and Yuan Yingfuli got up and walked to the banquet. Miss Fu happened to be next to her and came over to say hello. Yuan Ying looked at the paper and pen on the table, her eyebrows jumped, and she raised her forehead and asked softly, "Is it really a poem of appreciating chrysanthemums?" I'm most afraid of this. ”

"Little princess, the princess has always liked poetry, don't you know her?" Seeing her like this, Fu Yuan smiled softly, "If you really can't do it, don't you still have a gunman?" ”

Song Yansheng was thirsty all the way over, and while drinking tea, he bumped into the eager eyes of the two people who looked at him together.

"You ...... I can't help but look down on me too much. She choked and said helplessly, "What kind of play is it today?" "This forest is full of chrysanthemums of all kinds. Flowers, proud of the bones. However, they are all rare varieties.

"It should just be a chrysanthemum and a poem, just like in the Wensi Pavilion on weekdays, the girls have a lively gathering, and they probably don't need to be too serious." Fu Yuan replied.

"That's the princess's exact words?"

"Hmm."

Yuan Ying breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good." ”

Song Yansheng pinched the teacup, looked around at the surrounding environment, and then looked at Xiao Changying, who was laughing with the girls, and frowned slightly, always feeling that things were not so simple.

The banquet began, and everything was normal. She sat in an inconspicuous corner with Yuan Ying and Fu Yuan, and with the help of the girls in the front row, it was easier to speak or make small movements.

The girls were about to play a few rounds of drinking, when a burst of laughter suddenly came from outside the Qionghua forest, and then a group of people came over. Song Yansheng was eating osmanthus cake and was gently pushed by Yuan Ying.

"Ahem." She looked up.

The honor guard at the head was brightly colored, and almost flashed her eyes. In this palace, those who can use bright yellow, except for the Holy Queen, are the Queen Mother.

Song Yansheng has never seen this Dacheng's empress dowager, Empress Wanyi of Emperor Qizhang, a woman who has worn bright yellow in this palace all her life.

The Queen Mother is old, and an old husband beside her is holding her. The old man is even older than the Queen Mother, and he looks like he needs someone else to help him. He bent his waist and was saying something to the Queen Mother, it should be said interestingly, and the Queen Mother had deep smile lines on her face.

Behind them, there were a group of nobles in the palace, and on both sides stood the palace people who were respectful and down-looking.

I heard that the Queen Mother is not easy to leave Ningshou Palace, and now the wind blows the Queen Mother's big Buddha.

Yuan Ying quietly explained to her beside her, "On the ninth day of the first month today, the Queen Mother is going to Ci'an Hall to worship the Buddha." ”

Ci'an Hall belongs to the eight halls of Xuande Gate, and it is not far from this Qionghua forest. When the girls saw the Queen Mother coming, they knelt down and saluted.

"The Queen Mother, Kang'an."

"Imperial Concubine Niang Kang'an."

“……”

Song Yansheng kowtowed to the ground with the girls, raised her eyebrows, and Yuan Guifei was also there? She settled down a little. This Princess Baohui's chrysanthemum appreciation will not know what to do, if there is really a situation that is not easy to deal with, then if the concubine is present, she will not stand idly by, after all, the princess of Yuan Xiaojun is here.

"No need to be polite, just sit down." The Queen Mother smiled and looked so kind, Song Yansheng sat back in her seat, and listened to the old lady ask with interest, "You guys, what are you doing?" ”

"Back to the emperor's grandmother, the granddaughter saw that the current season was just right, so she invited the girls of Wensi Pavilion to come here to enjoy the chrysanthemum poems. Although the chrysanthemum of Wen Si Ge. The flowers are blooming, too, but the granddaughter thinks that it will be boring to always enjoy them in one place. Bao Hui saluted and replied with a smile.

Indeed. You young girls, you should move around more. The palace people added a seat to the upper seat, the old man helped the queen mother to sit down, and the concubine and several ladies in the palace who were accompanying her sat next to her, with a smile on their faces, and looked at the girls in the banquet for a while, "This Wensi Pavilion is different, look at the girl in this water, it is very marked." ”

"No, they're all flowers."

After all, this is the back court, in the palace, and the girls all bow their heads, in front of the queen mother and the nobles in the palace, lest something go wrong.

"Hey, you still said that it's just an ordinary poem, I don't think you can deal with it casually."

Fu Yuan was innocently lying on the gun, and he also wanted to cry without tears, "Who knew that the Queen Mother and Niangniang were here...... It's really a plan that can't keep up with the changes. ”

“…… Do you think I'm going to pee now? ”

Song Yansheng glanced at Yuan Ying and lowered his voice, "Don't panic, isn't your aunt here?" ”

"My aunt...... Just like my cousin, don't expect her to reach out and help, maybe just wait to see the excitement. ”

"......" Song Yan was startled, raised his head slightly and quickly glanced at Yuan Guifei who was talking to the person next to him, "No." ”

Concubine Yuan saw Yuan Ying, and when she saw this girl's face was depressed, she couldn't help but smile in her heart as if she wanted to run when she saw the right time. Concubine Jing was sitting next to her, and several ladies were discussing Miss Xiao San at this banquet. She looked over and saw next to Princess Bowey.

Miss Xiao San is not a new face in this palace, she has a close relationship with the queen and is a frequent visitor to Kunhe Palace. In the past two years, the queen has lost power and closed the palace door, and this Xiao San girl has not seen her for a while, and I heard that she is not in Beijing.

People are easily attracted by beautiful and beautiful things, this Xiao Changying, who has not been seen in the past few years, has become more and more handsome, looking forward to brilliance, like a fairy concubine. This looks and temperament...... It's so amazing that it's easy to overlook.

But Concubine Yuan didn't feel much about this Xiao girl, and when she saw it at first glance, she didn't like it very much. Ruxue once asked her to pay attention to the Xiao family, which shows that she is not a good stubble, and besides, her intuition has always been very accurate.

This Xiao girl, beauty is beauty, and it is a long way to see it.

The Queen Mother sat down and saw Xiao Changying at a glance, her eyes deepened, and she said casually, "The third girl is back, I haven't seen her for a long time, and she is becoming more and more beautiful." I look at this kind of appearance, I'm afraid I can't find a few in Beijing. ”

Song Yansheng raised his eyes and looked over. One thing to say, judging from her appearance alone, Xiao Changying is indeed stunning, especially in the past few years.

When Xiao Changying heard this, she hurriedly sat down and knelt down, "The Queen Mother praises falsely, I really don't dare to take it." ”

The Queen Mother smiled, "Kneel down, get up." But speaking of which, since you have returned, why haven't you seen Lou Quan enter the palace to sing recently. "Xiao Changying holds the Red Mansion in her hand, cultivates two pillars, one with red sleeves and one from Louquan, and is the best at Beijing opera, which is the tune that the Queen Mother likes, so she is very valued. I especially like Lou Quan here, and even gave him a surname and a surname, and gave the surname of the Lou family, all because the Queen Mother liked his spring-like voice.

Saying this, Song Yansheng thought that there had indeed been no news from these two famous characters for a while. Since the operation of Yechuntai, because of the changeable style of music has attracted a lot of tea customers who love to listen to operas in Beijing, although the business of the Red Mansion has been damaged, but the reputation of the two corners is still there. Besides, the Red Chamber is not just a theater, it is Xiao Changying's eyes and ears, used to hear about the Beijing Gate, and the two corners are important spies for her to listen to the news in the palace in addition to singing. One external, one internal, can be described as ingenious.

Now that the Queen Mother asked, she was stunned for a moment, and then replied fluently, "The Queen Mother doesn't know, when I returned to Beijing, I heard that Lou Quan was sick for a while, and he couldn't open his voice. The Queen Mother asked today, I turned around and looked at Louquan, if I waited for my voice to be thorough, I would send people to the palace. ”

"I know that the Queen Mother likes this spring, which is also his great blessing. When the time comes, he will come in every day to sing songs for you, but I am afraid that you will get tired of listening to him. ”

This is said to be thoughtful and considerate everywhere. The Queen Mother smiled when she heard this, "It's sick, so let's wait for him to take care of his voice, and the mourning family is not in a hurry at this time." ”

"Yes." Xiao Changying bowed and retreated.

After asking, the Queen Mother swept her eyes and saw that the girls in the banquet were sitting precariously and did not dare to speak, and raised her eyebrows and said strangely, "Why is there no sound?" She took the tea cup brought by her father-in-law and said very kindly, "The mourning family is stuffy in this palace, and I haven't seen so many fresh faces for a long time." Everyone, be at ease, and don't be restrained, and don't care about us. As he spoke, he asked Bao Hui, "What are you just playing?" Keep playing. ”

Princess Baohui responded, "Back to the emperor's grandmother, it's the Feihua Order, and I received the word 'wine'." ”

This flying flower order is not difficult, the autumn scene is, the last word of the poem, mostly quoted from ancient poems, the test is a reaction. It must be able to match it in a moment, otherwise it will be a punishment for drinking.

"I'll take a look, it should be here for Miss Song Liu."

Song Yansheng's heart jumped, when did it reach her? She looked up and saw that Princess Baohui was facing her and smiled, "The sixth girl just buried her head, I'm afraid I didn't hear it, the word 'wine' begins, please continue with the sixth girl." ”

Wine...... It is necessary to connect, and it has to be suitable for the occasion, and only one sentence was thought of between the electric light and flint, "The wine is not fishy and the chrysanthemum is used." ”

It's easy, it's too much. When she got to Yuan Ying's side, she thought it should be easy to pick up, but who expected her to blurt out when she thought about it, "Ju...... Chrysanthemum. Flowers should be planted all over the place! ”

The girls at the bottom all laughed, and the Queen Mother even laughed a little more. This sentence is even more easy to understand, Song Yansheng thought of the appearance of flowers on her head, and couldn't help but "flutter".

"It's dangerous, it's dangerous." After her, Yuan Ying finally had the opportunity to whisper to her in private, "How do I feel that the princess is deliberately targeting us?" It's just started, how can it be that we can get here? ”

Song Yansheng frowned slightly, "I think so too, I guess there will be some singing in this show today." ”

In front of the queen mother and the lady in the palace, you can't be too casual, otherwise the whole family will be embarrassed, but you can't be too conspicuous, you have to master this degree. After a round of Flying Flower Order, the atmosphere was finally a little lighter.
