Bai Ling and the three of them walked for half an hour, passing through many courtyards, before they came to the place where the banquet was held.

Today's theme is a bonfire, naturally on the lawn.

It allows everyone to move freely, and it is also convenient to sing and dance, and also to talk and poetry about wine.

"I've finally looked forward to you, come and sit down next to the palace." When the crown princess saw the three of them, she beckoned, and her attitude was very enthusiastic.

I can't see at all that she didn't send a soft sedan chair to pick up people, obviously she deliberately made things difficult, or rather, she dismounted a few people.

Bai Ling is the person the prince wants to woo, and even wanted to marry Bai Ling as a side concubine at one point, and the princess naturally has a mustard in her heart.

Now Bai Ling is the princess of Shangguan Yu, and there is an extra force behind her, and she doesn't have to be a rival in love, of course, the princess's attitude towards her is much better, but she always has to follow the tone in her heart in order to 'turn enemies into friends'.

Princess Yayang is the sister-in-law of the crown princess, no matter whether she usually intersects or not, she has to show the illusion of a good relationship in front of outsiders.

Qin Xuerou's temperament is not liked by the crown princess, but the Qin family has a heavy army, and they love this pearl in their hands very much, so they can't be left out in the cold.

The backyard is an area that foreign men can't touch, but it's also another battlefield above the officialdom.

The friendship between women is mostly determined by the distance and proximity relationship with men, and the intimacy between them also represents the two families.

"I've seen the crown princess

Sister-in-law. The three of them bowed and sat down in the three empty seats beside the crown princess.

According to her identity, Princess Yayang is the person with the highest status among the people present, except for the crown princess.

Even other people can't beat Bai Ling, the county lord.

After the three of them sat down, everyone in the audience had to salute Princess Yayang and Bai Ling.

Bai Ling explained why Bai Cao didn't come over, and the crown princess also greeted a few words of understanding, and ordered someone to send some food to Bai Cao in the Qin family's courtyard to show her concern.

"Tonight's bonfire party is still Bai Wei's idea, I heard her say that when you are at home, it will be held occasionally, so that everyone can have fun and enjoy the food. This palace was originally afraid that it would be difficult to do it, but now I think this idea is very good, and the idea of the auspicious county lord is really different from us ordinary people. ”

The crown princess deliberately held Bai Ling, but she also pulled Bai Wei in, I don't know what she wants.

Bai Ling smiled politely: "The inspiration for this bonfire party comes from the fact that when our family was poor, our sisters would often go hungry, so we went down to the river to fish. At that time, the family could not even afford to eat rice, naturally there was no oil and water, and after eating enough fish soup, a pair of fires were lit in the yard to grill fish to eat.

Later, life at home was better, and the sisters missed this feeling, and occasionally lit a fire, but the types of roasting were much more complicated.

Later, the young people in the village would also make a few bonfires by the river in their leisure time, and everyone would eat and drink together to communicate their feelings. Slowly it became a habit in the village, and there were at least a few such gatherings a year. ”

The crown princess found a topic, and Bai Ling generously told the reason, not embarrassed at all about her background and past.

"I really didn't expect that the auspicious county lord would have such a hard life. At that time, I guess I didn't even know what meat tasted like, right? It's pitiful. Someone's sympathetic opening is just matched with a gloating expression, which is disgusting.

"If you have to endure hardships to become a master, without those bitter days, maybe there will be no current auspicious county lord, there will only be a peasant girl named Bai Ling, or even a peasant woman.

Therefore, I am very grateful to God for giving me the opportunity to experience, and it has also made me know how to cherish my existing happiness, and I also understand more that only everything I earn is the most reliable. Bai Ling smiled lightly.

"The auspicious county lord means that you sisters have shared ups and downs, and now you are the county lord, but your sister is still a peasant girl...... The county lord's words, but he is laughing at his sister for nothing? The girl exclaimed.

Bai Ling was still smiling faintly, and his afterglow swept towards the crown princess who was holding the tea cup and pretending to be drinking tea, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold.

No matter what the real purpose of the crown princess is, it also depends on whether she Bai Ling is willing to cooperate.

"First of all, my sister has set up a household on her own in order to prove her ability, and it is not that the girl said that she is useless. Secondly, when a girl laughs at others, please examine her own abilities first. If the gorgeous clothes and beaded hairpin jewelry on your body were not given by the elders in the family, you might earn half a point?

Again, I want to question the girl, before she talks to the lord of the county, can she ask the lord of the county if he is willing to give you this face? Bai Ling's smile was very sweet, but the words he said were cold.

The girl didn't expect Bai Ling to be so ruthless, her face was flushed at the moment, and she didn't know whether she was angry or ashamed.

"Please also ask the princess to be the master of the courtiers, the courtiers are just quick to talk about it, and they will blurt it out, but the words of the county lord are too unforgiving, if it is spread out, where will the courtiers still have a face!" The girl got up with a crying complaint.

"This ......" The crown princess glanced at Bai Ling, and then said apologetically to the girl: "Hurry up, it's cold on the ground, you are young, don't catch a cold." ”

The crown princess opened her mouth gently, and motioned to the girl behind her to support the girl.

"Although the courtiers were reckless, they had no malice. If the county lord is dissatisfied with the words of the courtier, the courtier is willing to apologize to the county lord, and asks the county to take back what Fang Cai said, so as not to ruin the reputation of the courtier. The girl refused to get up and saluted in the direction of Bai Ling.

Bai Ling sneered in his heart, and asked coldly, "What does the girl mean, can you take back what you said?" ”

The girl was stunned, and then reacted that it was her own slip of the tongue.

Without waiting for the girl to speak again, Bai Ling said to the crown princess: "The princess Niangniang, the courtiers are not bitter and mean people. But there is no room for sand in his eyes, and he can say whatever he thinks in his heart.

If you offend the lady's guests, please take care of the mother. After all, what he said was like water spilled, and he could never be recovered, and the courtiers didn't think they had that ability. ”

Bai Ling's words of saying whatever she wanted in her heart were undoubtedly telling everyone that she didn't want to sell that girl's love at all.

Even the crown princess was quite surprised, she never thought that Bai Ling would be so tough, and she said nothing.

Whether it is Bai Ling himself who is such a character, or whether the Han Wangfu has become Bai Ling's confidence, is worth pondering.

"This matter is not the county lord's fault, and the county lord does not have to worry about this matter."

The crown princess thought for a while, and said in a gentle tone to the girl who knelt down and begged for 'justice': "Fortunately, there are no outsiders at today's banquet, otherwise the words you just said will be spread out, and your reputation will be hindered, how can you talk about good relatives in the future?" Hurry up and give the county lord a companion, and this matter will be revealed. ”

There is the crown princess and the mud, everyone sells face, and after the girl says goodbye, just as if what happened just now has not happened.

The women's drinking is naturally not a strong drink, but just a picture.

Qin Xuerou felt bored, so she could only drink one glass of wine after another, anyway, such a drink couldn't get her drunk.

For the sake of safety, when Bai Ling went out, he was ready to learn about the wine pills, and the three of them had already taken them.

"I'm sorry county lord, the slave didn't mean to, please punish the county lord." Just as Bai Ling and Qin Xuerou were talking in a whisper, they heard the voice of a maid at their feet.

Bai Ling looked down, and there was a puddle of wine stains on the Western Regions chiffon, as if it was unevenly dyed, and the skirt was wasted.
