Chapter 143: Ice Hip
Sure enough, everyone only looked forward to it for a while, and then they saw a vast crowd of people coming behind Yating, and when they looked closely, they were graceful.
When Mrs. Qin Yanghou personally went to greet people, she only brought four or five maids out, but now there are dozens of people who have come in.
Princess Juncheng took the lead, with a smile like a spring breeze in March on her undiminished face, and she taught people to see a bodhisattva face from a distance. Behind her was the Marquis of Qinyang and the monarch of Ningguo, Jiang Rouji, Jiang Rousu was wearing a red dress today, and a pair of golden hairpins on her head were shining under the morning sun, and they were luxurious and extraordinary.
Gu Jin looked at it from afar, and couldn't help but think of the way this person dressed when he later became the lord of the Middle Palace, which was also so luxurious and natural, the so-called underestimating the seedlings, it was not the intention.
When the people entered the court, the ladies curts, and Mrs. Qin Yanghou presented the people all the way to the top, and today's guests were all there.
The hall breeze was soft, brushing the jade faces of the guests, and everyone's faces were full of smiles, blooming for a moment on the edge of the ice lake in the backyard of the Marquis of Qinyang.
I only heard Mrs. Qin Yanghou, who was sitting at the top, said lightly "start", and some maids entered the table with delicacies and fruits.
The banquet of the Qinyang Marquis Mansion was very decent, and only one table of dishes was served for a long time, and when the maids were withdrawn, the table in front of everyone was stacked with delicacies from the mountains and seas, chicken, duck and fish, and it was indescribably exquisite.
The lord's family naturally did not come to hold such elegant gatherings for dinner, and the ladies of the family would not covet the dishes outside, so that they were said that the family had never seen the world, although the dishes were good, there were very few chopsticks, and everyone was gossiping with a tea cup.
Princess Juncheng was generous, slowly put down the tea cup in her hand, she opened her mouth with a smile, and the voices in the court fell silent.
"The tea fry of your Qinyang Marquis Mansion is good, but it is better than our family's I don't know how many times."
Mrs. Qin Yanghou bowed and said with a smile: "It's all tea given by the Holy Emperor, where can we talk about good or bad, but my girl knew that the princess was going to come in person today, so she went to the back kitchen to fry it." ”
Princess Juncheng said "oh" and asked again: "It must be Rui'er?" I haven't seen this girl in a few days, why didn't I show up today? ”
Qin Yanghou has many children, but there are only two sons-in-law, and there is only one daughter-in-law, Zuo Rui, Mrs. Qinyanghou deliberately mentioned this sencha person in Princess Juncheng, just to let Princess Juncheng boast about her daughter again.
Zuo Rui has reached the age of discussing marriage, if he can get some rewards from Princess Juncheng, the husband who marries can be two orders higher.
Sure enough, seeing Mrs. Qin Yanghou grinning, it was Princess Juncheng's guess that hit her heart, she replied with a smile: "It's Rui'er, I know that the princess and the county lord are coming here, where is there no reason not to come out to greet her." It's just that the girl has a lot of ideas, and she said that she would come out to meet the guests after a while. ”
Princess Juncheng knocked on the table with her fingers, and raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, she was a member of the royal family, how could she not understand the meaning of these words, but she still asked patiently: "Oh?" Then I'll just wait and see. ”
Jiang Rou was suspiciously listening to these words, and couldn't help but feel a little funny in her heart.
The Marquis Mansion of Qinyang has been attached to the Mansion of Ningguo for many years, and Zuo Rui has been sitting with her for many years.
Jiang Rou was suspicious and wanted to say a few sarcastic words, but suddenly heard the sound of orchestral music behind her, and for a while, everyone put all their eyes on the girl who came out with the music.
There are a lot of red plums growing on the edge of the back lake, and the clusters are open and lined with snow, which has become the background of Zuo Rui's red makeup.
The girl wore a cloud red gauze skirt and smiled before the winter snow, her skirt moved slightly, her posture was graceful, and the water sleeves danced in the wind and smoke.
I saw that Zuo Rui's pretty face was gradually revealed behind the water sleeve, and then his body turned around and went straight to the ice.
It's a dance of ice.
Zuo Rui is not a delicate lady, she knows some riding and archery skills, and her temperament is also Ling Ran, and today's dance has volatilized this temperament to the extreme.
The ladies in the court had different expressions, and everyone with a discerning eye knew that Zuo Rui was here to show off at the banquet today, but the Marquis of Qinyang and Princess Juncheng were still sitting on the top with a smile, so they naturally didn't dare to say anything.
Except for Jiang Rou, who sneered at this on her face, the rest of the people watched the play seriously.
Gu Jin was hidden in the crowd, his eyes faintly fell on the red-makeup lady who danced on the ice, and said in his heart that there were really more and more fresh characters in Bianliang City in the past few days.
But I have to admit that this Miss Zuo is dancing very well.
Although Gu Xiang said that she followed the He family to such an elegant gathering every year, but today without the support of the He family, she really couldn't let go, and she didn't dare to speak loudly when she saw Zuo Rui dancing, but only muttered in her mouth:
"In the front yard are the young talents of the court, but she is dancing here, I really don't know who she is dancing for."
If there is really a child of a family who accidentally gets lost while wandering in the yard, and accidentally sees this scene with his eyes, I really don't know if it is a happy event or a bad thing.
Although Gu Xiang's voice was small, it didn't escape Gu Jin's ears, and she couldn't help but smile when she heard this: "What is my sister anxious about, can she still rob you of people?" ”
Gu Xiangqiao's face flushed, but she didn't expect Gu Jin to guess her mind with just one sentence, Zuo Rui has the heart to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, everyone can see it, but now Dazhen only has those two young dragons, His Royal Highness King Shu has a marriage contract with the Prime Minister's Mansion, and is also worried about the Ningguo Mansion, Zuo Rui's mind should not reach King Shu, so isn't there only King Xian left?
Thinking of this, Gu Xiang couldn't help but get angry again: "It's not ashamed to indulge your daughter in such a limelight in your own home!" ”
These words are openly and secretly, and the people who are scolded are Mrs. Qin Yanghou.
Today's matter is also Mrs. Qinyanghou is anxious, probably because she sees that the affairs in the court are becoming more and more stable, and after Shuobei was pacified, the saint has promoted many people with lofty ideals, and the young talents are becoming more and more sought-after, so she wants to make Zuo Rui stand out in this elegant gathering today, and it is best that today's limelight can cover Jiang Rou, the county lord of Ningguo, so that this reputation can also spread further.
Gu Jin sighed slightly in his heart, feeling that Mrs. Qin Yanghou's move was really inappropriate.
The Marquis of Qinyang's mansion is a lord's family, Zuo Rui is a concubine, and her identity is already noble, so why worry about not being able to find a suitable Langjun, and if you have to rush up and rob Jiang Rou suspiciously, it is a little beyond your strength.
The Marquis of Qinyang's mansion wants to smoke his heart and see that the eyes of money are open to this extent, to put it bluntly, this is called pushing people into the fire pit.
