After the greetings, the banquet officially began.

Laughter and laughter at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the dancers are graceful, and in this spring season, they are more and more pleasing to the eye.

Only Gu Jiu is like an outlier.

She sat at the table, oblivious to everything around her, like a person who had come to eat, concentrating on the food in front of her.

Zhou Miao on the side couldn't sit still, and seeing that she was eating with relish, she whispered to her from time to time: "Sister Gu, look, how can that dancing girl's waist be so soft!" ”

She disliked Mrs. Shizi for being too estranged, and very consciously changed it to her sister.

Gu Jiu didn't care about her title, she called her, but when she heard this, she couldn't help laughing: "You go and ask her how she practiced." ”

Hearing Gu Jiu's joke, Zhou Miao smiled, and saw Zhou Yao's dish on her plate, and asked softly: "Eat something, just drink tea and your stomach will be uncomfortable later." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Miao hurriedly responded with a smile, and gave her another dish, and said with a smile: "Thank you sister-in-law, you can eat too, don't patronize me." ”

The little girl's thoughtfulness made Zhou Yao's eyes smile, nodded in response, patted her hand and said, "Miao'er." ”

It looked like a child.

Seeing this, Gu Jiu lowered his eyes and smiled, while reaching out to get the wine jug.

At the banquet, because there are many female dependents, all the peach blossoms are stuffed, which is sweet and delicious, and the mouth is full of aftertaste.

She liked the taste and drank a few more glasses.

Who knows, but it is empty.

Gu Jiu turned around in surprise, but saw that the wine pot had already been taken to his side by Qin Zheng.

Feeling her puzzled gaze, Qin Zheng tilted his head and said lightly: "Drink less." ”

His expression was clearly serious, but at that moment, Gu Jiu was as if he was telepathic, and he instantly understood what the other party meant.

Is he reminding himself that the last time she drank too much, she spoke out of her insults?

That's it......

pointed at him and said to seduce herself, which is also the most embarrassing thing in her life!

Gu Jiu suddenly blushed a little, took his hand back, and nodded calmly: "Okay, thank you Lord Shizi." ”

It's just that the hand that went to serve the tea was a little shaky, and she scolded in her heart, she was also careless, what to do when she drank in front of him, didn't this clearly remind him of the embarrassing things she did before!

So in the following time, Gu Jiu became more and more concentrated on eating, and he didn't dare to raise his head at all, for fear of bumping into the playful gaze of the person in front of him again.

It was precisely because of this that Gu Jiu didn't see the smile that flashed across the corners of Qin Zheng's lips when she lowered her head to pretend to be a quail.

That smile was so light and faint that even Qin Zheng didn't realize it.

……

After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere of the banquet gradually became lively.

Seeing that everyone had almost eaten, the eldest princess smiled and said, "Today's banquet is for fun, but it's boring to have wine and no fun, why don't we have some fun?" ”

This is the old rule of the old years, and everyone knows it, so they all respond to it.

A lady of a family who was close to the eldest princess opened her mouth and smiled: "Since we want to have fun, let's also add some color." All of you here are the daughters of the sons of the family, and the appearance of the samples is not lost, for the sake of fairness, there are those who want to show their style, if they come out on top, they will give some rewards, what does the princess think? ”

Hearing this, the eldest princess smiled appreciatively and said: "This method is very good, no matter what grade we have today, today we will also follow the example of the ancients. How is it? ”

As soon as these words came out, I saw that the woman from before covered her lips again and smiled: "The princess's method is very good, there is only one thing, and if you get married, you will not be forced to participate, right?" Especially if a concubine is a shallow and shallow brain, if she loses her ugliness on such occasions, she will have no face to see people in the future. "Knock knock

Hearing her words, the eldest princess glanced at her with a smile and said, "How lazy you are." That's it, according to what you said, anyone who marries can come at will, anyway, you have all become sauce, vinegar and salt from poetry, wine and tea, and there is nothing poetic to think about. ”

Several married women immediately laughed and echoed this, and laughed in unison: "The princess is wise." ”

So the rules were set.

The eldest princess was interested, and someone brought a wine glass, and the palace people put it on the water and floated down with the wind.

The wine glass swayed and went down all the way, and everyone present held their breath, some hoped to come to their own front, and some prayed not to stop in front of them.

Because of the previous rules, Gu Jiu didn't have to get involved in this matter, she was full of wine and food, so she was also a little interested, and followed everyone to look at the wine glass, but saw that it finally stopped in front of the Bai family's table.

The people present suddenly laughed and sighed, and the maid next to her whispered a few words in the ear of the eldest princess, and she could hear her laugh and groan: "Today's opening actually started with our champion, which is really a good sign." ”

Bai Fu has a poor reputation in Shangjing, and the reason why he was invited to the Hundred Flowers Banquet was because the Bai family produced a new upstart in the court.

Last year, he won the first place with a Fang Fu and was appointed as the new champion of the Bai family, Bai Linyuan.

This Bai Linyuan is indeed a person with real skills, he entered the Hanlin Academy at a young age, and because of his outstanding literary talent, he was listed as one of the people he wanted to marry by countless women in Beijing.

Seeing that the wine cup stopped in front of him, Bai Linyuan got up and saluted, and his tone was respectful: "Princess Xie is love, and Weichen is ugly." ”

Hearing this, the eldest princess curled her lips and smiled, she didn't know what she thought, she raised her hand to stop him, and said: "I have heard that Lord Bai has outstanding literary talents, and today's banquet starts with you, why don't you come to the palace, how about you come to compose a poem?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people present suddenly came to their senses, this champion is a person with real talent and real learning, but it is a pity that he is a noble person, and there are few people who are familiar with him in the entire Hanlin Pavilion.

The woman was naturally pleased with him, but the men were more comparative, and for a while, Bai Linyuan became the focus.

Gu Jiu was not far away, and from her point of view, she could see that Bai Linyuan seemed to be a little at a loss, but the nervousness was not like a weak heart, but as if he was not used to being noticed.

She just thought of this, but saw Qin Zheng sitting up straight, although he still looked careless on his face, but in fact, he was already concentrating.

Gu Jiu couldn't help but laugh, she still didn't care about Qin Zheng about everything, it turned out that she would secretly compare with excellent people?

Bai Linyuan, who was in the room, had already adjusted his mood and said respectfully: "The princess is warmly invited, but Yuan is disrespectful, please ask the princess to ask the question." ”

Hearing this, the eldest princess smiled slightly, her eyes swept over the flowers in the garden, and finally landed on the pot of azaleas in front of her, pointed with her hand, and said, "Let's take this as the topic." ”

After getting the words of the eldest princess, Bai Linyuan gave another salute, and when he looked at the pot of azaleas, he twisted his eyebrows for a moment, and then stretched out again, but the sorrow between his eyebrows continued: "The azalea hair cries like a rhododendron, like blood like a smear of Zhu." It should be that the spring can't be stayed, and the wind and dew in the middle of the night are also cold. ”

After he finished reading this poem, he was speechless for a long time.

The smile on the eldest princess's lips disappeared, and her eyes fell on the void, I don't know whether to look at him or the pot of rhododendrons, and only after a long time did she sigh: "It's a good sentence that the wind and dew in the middle of the night are also cold." Poetry is good poetry, but it's too sad. Bai Dawen is brilliant and the palace admits it, but it does not fit the atmosphere of this hundred flowers banquet, punish you with a glass of wine, can you recognize it? ”

Hearing this, Bai Linyuan gave another long salute and said respectfully: "Thank you princess, Weichen admits punishment, please forgive the princess." ”

Seeing that she had drunk all the wine in the cup, the eldest princess smiled and said, "Come, go on." ”

The wine glass continued to turn down, and Bai Linyuan also sat down again.

was supposed to be a blockbuster literary champion, but this opening was not very good.

Although this poem is indeed excellently written, it is particularly inappropriate for such an occasion.

Gu Jiu turned his cup thoughtfully, a little puzzled for a while.

It is said that the champion of high school is a spring breeze and a horseshoe disease, but this literary champion who is happy everywhere does not seem to have the vigor and conceit of a young man.

There was even a feeling of blood and tears in that poem.

When she thought of this, she saw Qin Zheng beside her with a strange face, although he was smiling, it was ridiculous and extremely cold.

It was clear that on this sunny day, she actually felt a little chilled, and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong with the son?" ”

Hearing her voice, Qin Zheng looked back at her, and the smile on his lips was a lot: "What?" ”
