Chapter 84: The Banquet Diagram

Only then did everyone realize that the water had already been lined up with bamboo rafts, and the dancers came from afar, their light bodies and flying dance skirts made them look like they were stepping on the blue waves.

"The ingenuity of the county lord of Yonghe is really amazing." There were no people who were unhappy, and there was a lot of harmony at the banquet.

Cui Zisu secretly clenched the handkerchief in his hand.

Why! Why can a woman who has been divorced by the crown prince be able to sit on an equal footing with Princess Fuqing, talk and laugh, and be sought after by this group of noble-born female dependents.

Cui Zisu went crazy with jealousy. But with a lady like her, no one will notice her emotions at all.

Except for the two princesses.

Princess Duanmin tugged at her sister's sleeve and whispered in Princess Yichang's ear: "Sister Huang, look at her appearance." ”

Although Princess Duanmin did not mention her name, Princess Yichang immediately understood who her sister was talking about.

Princess Yichang threw an extremely cold light towards Cui Zisu's position, and she said with a sneer: "Don't worry, it's good to have this little slut in a while." ”

If their grandmother hadn't been there to pave the way for this little slut, she wouldn't have killed her own eldest daughter because of this. Is it because their biological mother, Hui Guiren, is weak and useless, that she deserves to give another daughter a backlay?

Trying to step on the corpse of his sister to get on the throne, and still be able to feel at ease, it is simply inferior to a beast!

Princess Yichang's eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent.

"Your Royal Highness, Miss Wu is good at calligraphy and painting, and she is a close disciple of Mr. Li Guangru, a famous artist in Jiangnan. Xie Yanhe said with a smile.

"Oh? It turns out that there is still Mr. Li's tall feet here? Mr. Li's painting was hung in the imperial study by his father. ”

Princess Fuqing glanced around casually among the guests, with a slightly drunk voice lazily, like a piece of sweet pine nut candy.

She said slowly: "Then the palace is going to have a good look." ”

Princess Fuqing's voice fell, and Wu Bijun got up. She walked to the center of the banquet and bowed down: "The people see Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

"It's still a cute person." Princess Fuqing's gaze slowly swept over Wu Bijun, as if she had seen this woman for the first time.

"What's your name?"

"Returning to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the people's daughter Wu Bijun." Wu Bijun's voice was crisp and pleasant, like a pearl rolling off a jade plate.

The British Princess, who was originally enjoying the singing and dancing, glanced over lightly, and a touch of deep thought flashed in her eyes.

"Who are you coming to today?" Princess Fuqing changed her previous arrogance, although she still had a bit of dustless taste, but her tone was kinder than just now.

Wu Bijun looked flattered, and hurriedly said: "Back to Her Royal Highness the princess, the folk girl followed her stepmother Jinghua County Lord to the banquet. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be Aunt Jinghua." Princess Fuqing's eyes were fluttering, and the corners of her slightly upturned lips seemed to be smiling.

"Your Highness!" The county lord of Jinghua stood up with a respectful expression.

Princess Fuqing said slowly: "My aunt has newly recognized her daughter, why don't you even set up a banquet?" A playful glint flashed in her phoenix eyes: "Aunt won't be here to save money, right?" ”

"Where." The county lord of Jinghua was already frightened, and hurriedly smiled: "If Her Royal Highness the princess can appreciate the light, I will sweep the couch to greet you." ”

"Second Emperor Sister, Third Emperor Sister, if Aunt Jinghua is holding a banquet, do you want to go with the palace to have a good time?"

As soon as Princess Fuqing said this, it was obvious that she was giving Wu Bijun face.

Although everyone was puzzled, Princess Fuqing's intentions were already obvious, so how could they not be cheered.

Princess Chengjun was the first to respond: "The old man has a well-behaved and clever granddaughter, and he can eat a few more bowls of rice. ”

"Thank you, Mother." The county lord of Jinghua said with a smile.

Now that he has stood on the opposite side of the crown princess, the county lord of Jinghua doesn't care about offending people more ruthlessly. After all, the grass on the wall has not ended well since ancient times.

Princess Fuqing raised her eyebrows, and the county lord of Jinghua was forced to cast on her side. It was Princess Chengjun, and the speed of the defection made Princess Fuqing secretly surprised.

Princess Fuqing's gaze split out on Xie Yanhe's body. Could it be that the Chengjun Mansion heard something?

Before the overall situation is decided, such news must not be leaked out. Princess Fuqing's fingers clenched abruptly while holding the wine bottle.

"Then Bengong and Duanmin are waiting for their aunt's post." Princess Yichang said with a smile.

The county lord of Jinghua secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She just dozed off and listened to what her mother said, just before the banquet, Princess Fuqing and Princess Yichang had a quarrel, and the county lord of Jinghua was really afraid that the two princesses would use her as a raft.

While everyone was talking and laughing, they suddenly said "huh" to Lord Jing, her food table was in front of Wu Bijun's painting case, so they could clearly see that in just a short period of effort, Wu Bijun had already drawn a rough picture of the scene in front of him.

"Miss Wu's hand-painting skills are really the true inheritance of Mr. Li. Yikes! Miss Wu even drew my headdress. The county lord of Hejing raised his hand and touched the emerald gorse on his head and scratched his head.

With the exclamation of Lord Hejing, the eyes of the ladies couldn't help but be attracted.

Even the two princesses Ying and Kang and the eldest princess were attracted to Wu Bijun's painting case.

The scene of the feast and drink jumped on the page: the dancing girls in colorful clothes on the lake, the peonies in the garden, and the richly decorated guests on the banquet all appeared on the scroll.

Mr. Li Guangru is best at drawing beautiful pictures, and the eyes of beautiful women are particularly brilliant. Although Wu Bijun's technique is still a little inferior to Li Guangru's, he has already mastered the essence of it, and the rest is just time to study.

"Sure enough, there are talents from all over the country. It is really worth the trip to be able to meet an eyebrow-sweeping genius at Yonghe's banquet today. ”

Princess Kang looked at Wu Bijun's painting and was amazed. She is a real elegant person, and she likes to collect gold and stones, calligraphy and paintings, so this compliment is particularly sincere.

"Chunxue, Miss Wu's painting is finished, send it to the horse, lest these men look down on us women in the future." Princess Fuqing raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with the corners of her lips.

She began to face Wu Bijun from her heart.

The side concubine selected by Yonghe is not only talented and beautiful, but also has a pampered and unfazed temperament, such a person enters the East Palace, and the East Palace will be lively in the future. What's more, the other side concubine, Chu Linglong, is also a person who is unwilling to be lonely.

"Bi Jun is a shallow learner, and he deserves such praise from the princess and His Royal Highness." Wu Bijun put down her paintbrush and bowed her knees to Princess Kang and Princess Fuqing.

"Miss Wu doesn't have to be modest. Not everyone can get the blue eyes of this palace. Princess Fuqing said with a smile.

Wu Bijun didn't know how to pick up Princess Fuqing's words, so she could only maintain her knees. It was Xie Yanhe who helped her out of the siege: "Your Highness, let's not disturb Miss Wu to concentrate on painting." ”

Xie Yanhe led everyone back to the table, she glanced at the mandarin duck behind her, and waited until the maid presented the excerpts to the female dependents, Xie Yanhe said with a smile: "Today's banquet invited the Qingyun class in the capital to sing, a total of five plays were arranged, including "The Phoenix Returns to the Nest", "Tianxian Pei", "Qunfang Spectrum", as well as the martial arts drama "Shooting the Sun" and "Nezha Troubled Sea", tea and snacks have been prepared. If there is someone who loves to watch the show, you might as well move to the Tingyin Pavilion. ”

Xie Yanhe paused when he said this, and his expression added a hint of solemnity: "It's just that there is only a corner door between Tingyin Pavilion and the male guest, so let's not mess up." ”

Several princesses and eldest princesses suddenly moved and led the maids away.

However, the unmarried ladies all stayed, and the county lord of Jinghua did not leave with the princess of Chengjun because he wanted to take care of Wu Bijun, a righteous daughter.

"The county lord of Yonghe arranged it today is really thoughtful. The food and the beautiful scenery are all things that I have never heard of or seen in the past, and I am reluctant to leave. Cui Zisu was not like the first time she met at the palace gate before, calling Xie Yan and the sister of the Xie family, but secretly distanced herself from Xie Yanhe from the title.

Sister Cui praised it falsely. My sister loves to live in the garden for as long as she wants, and I can't still chase away guests. Sensing the hostility hidden in Cui Zisu's eyes, Xie Yanhe said with a smile.

"The eyelids are shallow, are the Cui family short of have you eaten and drunk? makes you even greedy for one of Yonghe's cousin's gardens. Princess Yichang didn't save face for Cui Zisu's aunt at all, and immediately scolded her.

Cui Zisu originally wanted to say that Xie Yan and extravagance violated the discipline of the girl, and it was not the virtue that everyone should have, but she didn't expect to be put on a light-eyed hat by her niece, and she was ashamed and angry in her heart, and the handkerchief in her hand was about to be torn.

"Imperial sister, my aunt said something unintentionally, why should the imperial sister be more serious." Princess Duanmin said slowly, "Like this palace, I have never taken my aunt's words to heart. ”

Although Princess Duanmin is still young, she is familiar with it in the harem, and she is not a pure little white rabbit. She seemed to be relieving her aunt, but there was something in her words, and everything was sarcastic.

was sarcastically ridiculed by the two princesses, Cui Zisu's tears fell, she bit her cherry lip, and said aggrievedly: "I'm just a gossip, why do the two princesses bury people like this." ”

Xie Yanhe forcibly resisted the action of holding her forehead, she was the same age as Princess Yichang and Princess Duanmin, and there was not much contact on weekdays. Unexpectedly, the two princesses were as tongue-talking, and they didn't lose half a point to Princess Fuqing, the eldest sister.

"Sister Cui, the two Highnesses are just joking, you are the elder of the two Highnesses, don't be happy to cry."

Although the attitude of the two princesses was a little worse, Cui Zisu looked a little ignorant as if she was bullied by the two princesses.

Could it be that at today's banquet, who would face off with the princesses for her, the daughter of a third-rank official?

"I heard that Sister Cui likes to make incense. Pearl, you go to the warehouse to get a box of borneol and a box of crocrose, which can be regarded as my apology to Sister Cui. In order to calm things down, Xie Yanhe directly used generous gifts to appease Cui Zisu's emotions.

These two spices are worth thousands of gold, and they are not something that the Cui family can afford.

When Cui Zisu heard this, her face turned red and white, although she was embarrassed in her heart, she couldn't have a seizure, so she could only endure the humiliation and excuse herself: "Where can I deviate from Sister Xie's good things, I just have sand in my eyes, Sister Xie is too worried." In the last sentence, I couldn't help but stab Xie Yanhe.

After all, Cui Zisu was only a fifteen-year-old girl, and she was humiliated by the princesses and beaten by Xie Yanhe, and she had lost her normal heart, and her face couldn't help showing a few lines.

Xie Yanhe looked at the resentment hidden in Cui Zisu's eyes, and his heart was shocked, no wonder Princess Yichang and Princess Duanmin would do something to their own aunt. The heart of the young daughter of the Cui family is really indescribable.
