Chapter 313

Gu Xiao suddenly let go of his hand, lowered his eyes, and said in a slightly rushed tone, with a sense of anger: "If you like it, I'll give it to you!" ”

The smile on Gu Jiaojiao's face paused, "Thank you, Aunt Xiao!" He turned around and beckoned to the maid who was following far behind: "This is Aunt Xiao's hard work to win back, you take it well, go back and hang it in your grandmother's yard, she must be very happy!" ”

You don't want to give, she rarely asks for it!

"Got it, Miss!" The maid nodded, promising to take it.

Gu Mianmian glanced coldly, looked away, and looked at the lanterns on the left and right. She doesn't like Gu Xiao, but she won't deliberately bully her with her identity, she just ignores her.

The shelves in front of the bookstore on one side are full of lanterns, each lantern has a word written on it, and the combination is a poem, which is absolutely eye-catching, and on the bamboo pole on the other side are hanging four lanterns with the theme of Meilan chrysanthemum bamboo.

Each is exquisite, in which the lantern of the plum blossom is composed of various colors of plum blossoms, it looks like a gorgeous flower from a distance, but when you look closely, each one has the coldness and arrogance of plum blossoms.

The same is true of the other three orchid chrysanthemum bamboo lanterns, Gu Jiaojiao took a fancy to the plum blossom at a glance, but Gu Shijin's eyes were fixed on the bamboo.

Different from the chubby body of other lanterns, it is more slender, the tassels on the horns are also deliberately made into the image of bamboo leaves, and the handle is a piece of polished bamboo, which is placed next to Mei Lanju, and the body is a little flat, but it is very in line with the taste of readers.

Gu Shijin stared at it with a smile on his face, and he wanted two big words written on his little face.

"Want?!" Gu Mianmian also felt that these lanterns were very interesting, swept his eyes, and asked in a loud voice about the red plaque reflected by the lanterns, "What are the rules of your family?" ”

During the holidays, such lanterns cost very little, on the contrary, there will be tricky questions to promote the reputation of the shop.

"Girl, you see my shop!" The shopkeeper is medium and slightly fat, with a small face and a lot of meat, and his eyes are not big.

"See the ground on the line, from here to the lamp, a total of nine steps, as long as you make a poem with the name of our shop within these nine steps, you can get a lantern, of course, the occasion is better!"

This requirement is not harsh, there is no time limit, you are thick-skinned, and you hold back a song from morning to night, and people will recognize it.

It's not harsh, but it takes nine steps to become a poem, and it also needs to be suitable for the situation, not to mention the noisy environment around and the eyes of all colors.

"A few of you want to try it." The shopkeeper asked with a smile, and then pointed to the lanterns on both sides of the stall, "These lanterns are blank, you can inscribe them yourself, or you can ask the gentleman in our bookstore to inscribe them." ”

"Are these paintings live?" Gu Jiaojiao looked at the rabbit lamp that had just been sent out and hung, and curiously pointed at it, and there was a little ink on his finger.

The shopkeeper smiled and said nothing.

Gu Jiaojiao flattened her mouth, and stopped talking, although she thought that the plum blossom lamp was good-looking, but if she couldn't get it, she felt that it was like that.

"Can I give it a try?" Gu Xiao suddenly spoke, took a step forward, his eyebrows and eyes were delicate and cold, and his pink and white gauze skirt was lifted by the wind, fluttering like a fairy.

"If the girl wants to try, she can!" Putting it out like this was originally to make a name for herself, and naturally the more lively the better, and of course the shopkeeper would not refuse her.

"I'll do it too!" Gu Shijin put on a white and immature little face, turned around and said seriously to Gu Mianmian and the two, the temperament is not like a child, "Auntie, wait for me for a while." ”

Gu Mianmian nodded, "Okay, try to win back what you want!" ”

"Hmm!" It wasn't until Gu Mianmian nodded in agreement that he walked over eagerly.

And over there, there have been a lot of people standing one after another, looking at the temperament, they are basically readers, and there are also a few girls, but except for Gu Xiao, they all wear translucent veils, and they want to cover up half-covered, and their beautiful eyes are like autumn water under their long eyelashes.

"Auntie, where do you want!" Gu Jiaojiao leaned over and stared at the plum blossom lantern.

Gu Mianmian looked at them one by one and pouted, "Whatever." ”

"I'll just go back and ask the craftsman to do it!" The Ministry of Internal Affairs has craftsmen who specialize in serving the royal family, and with her current status, it is natural for her to ask for a few lanterns.

She deliberately glanced at Gu Jiaojiao, and said slowly, "Ask the craftsman to make a few more, and when the time comes, play one and throw one to make others greedy." ”

"Ah, aunt...... "Others Gu Jiaojiao is envious, jealous and hateful.

rolled his eyes, looked at her with a wink of stars, and pouted coquettishly, "Look at me, your most beloved eldest niece, don't you want to say anything!" ”

"I don't want to!" Gu Mianmian pushed away her face, and said with a little disgust, "It's useless, what's good!" ”

I don't know if I dislike the lantern or Gu Jiaojiao.

Gu Jiaojiao was stunned, "Why is it useless, but if it is useless, it will be fine!" ”

"This kind of lantern is good-looking, but it doesn't take long after lighting it!"

In order to look good, there are too many decorations on the lanterns, and they are easily faded and deformed by the candle flame.

"If you don't light the lights, you'll just have to!" Gu Jiaojiao likes those beautiful things.

"County Lord!" Suddenly, there was a tentative sound not far behind him.

"Well, who called me?" Gu Jiaojiao turned around suspiciously, and when she saw several daughters of official families, she hesitated for a moment and walked over to greet them.

"Miss He, Miss Zheng, Miss Qin!"

"County Lord!" The three of them said in unison and saluted at the same time.

Not far away, Gu Mianmian glanced back and turned around indifferently.

"I've known each other for so long, why are you still so polite!" Gu Jiaojiao hurriedly shouted and got up, and said a few words to the three of them casually, she showed an apologetic expression, "I came out with the elders in the family, so I won't talk to you, and I will post to you in a few days!" ”

"Then we won't bother the county lord, it just so happens that we want to go over there for a walk!" Ms Cheng is very understanding.

The three of them walked over there, and after walking a distance, Miss He whispered and wondered, "Which elder did the county lord of Jiaoyue come out with her?" How can I look at the figure of a woman...... "She actually wanted to say that she was a married woman.

But the age is only seventeen or eighteen years old.

Seventeen or eighteen, married, and elders, think carefully about the Gu family has no one who meets the requirements.

"You're confused, aren't you?" Miss Qin pointed to the location of the palace.

Miss Zheng has the best family background, her grandfather is a scholar of the military department, and she knows a lot about some things in the palace, so she whispered at the moment, "I heard that the concubine loves their sister and brother very much!" ”

Otherwise, how could he be made a county lord.

"But, isn't she in the palace......" He Gu was full of astonishment.

Miss Qin muttered, "I didn't say that I couldn't leave the palace!" ”

The constraints of the beam on women are not high, and although it is troublesome for the palace concubine to leave the palace, it is not extremely difficult.

Miss He thought about it, and she was so envious, Concubine Shugui's life was really good, she was favored as soon as she entered the palace, and then gave birth to the prince, and the wealth and power in the second half of her life can be said to be stable.

And she doesn't know where the future holds.

"You say, when will the emperor be drafted again!"

"What do you think!" Miss Zheng pushed her speechlessly, "Don't say it yet, the emperor can't draft again, just say you, do you guarantee that you can have the luck of Concubine Shu!" ”

I really thought the palace was peaceful.

It's far away, let's just say that something seemed to have happened to Concubine Shu when she gave birth before, and the palace has secretly investigated it for a long time.

Her grandfather also lamented during that time that since ancient times, the harem has been murderous without blood.

Just as the three of them were chatting, a soft female voice suddenly came from the side, with a slight smile and surprise, obviously in a very good mood, "Why are you here?"

The three of them were startled, hurriedly turned around, and saluted, "I've seen Princess Jing, please say hello to the princess!" ”

"Hurry up and excuse me, when you go out, where are there so many courtesies!" Princess Jing was wearing a light green gauze skirt and a white magnolia hairpin on her head, and the whole person was elegant and pretty.

She glanced at a few people with a smile and chuckled, "Today is the Qixi Festival, why didn't you pick a few lanterns!" ”

The three of them blushed, looked at each other, lowered their heads and pursed their lips shyly.

On the Qixi Festival, the unmarried girl's family holds a lantern to give to which son, which is a hint to the other party, I like you.

If Erlang accepts the lantern, that is, I like you too, and once the two parties contact again, a good relationship will be born.

But if you don't accept it, then it is naturally a ruthless intention.

Therefore, on the Qixi Festival, the unmarried girl's house, whether it is picked by herself or given by others, will have such a lantern in her hand.

"It just so happens that I just thought that some lanterns are good-looking, so I picked and bought a lot, so I'll give you a few, and invite me to drink in the future!" Probably, today is a good day and a good atmosphere, so Princess Jing is also in a good mood, with a smile in her voice and eyes.

The maid behind him immediately sent a few lanterns.

The three of them glanced at each other, and Miss Zheng stood up and thanked her generously, "The courtiers have thanked the princess!" ”

"Hmm." Princess Jing's eyebrows bent, and her elegant and beautiful eyebrows were a little more pretty and smart, "Who did you just see talking to?"

"What's going on over there, it's so lively?"

Miss Zheng hesitated slightly, "It's the county lord of Jiaoyue and her elders!" ”

"It's the Gu family!" Princess Jing thought for a moment and said to herself, "Speaking of which, I am still related to the Gu family!" ”

The three of them looked at each other, not knowing why Princess Jing stopped them.

Miss Zheng hesitated, "The princess forgives her sins, and the courtiers want to go to the river." ”

"Then let's go!" Princess Jing bowed her head and watched them walk away quietly, before turning around and walking slowly in the direction they came from.

"Princess......" The personal maid Basho looked hesitant, and tried to dissuade a few points, "Princess, it's cold, otherwise let's go back!" ”

Princess Jing's voice was as soft as water, "What are you going to do when you go back, this princess finally waited for this opportunity!" ”

"But the princess ......," Basho swallowed, "if something happens, how can it be ......?"

"Besides, she followed His Majesty out of the palace, how could she not follow people around her!"

With people around her, can the princess's plan come true!
