Chapter 33 Deliberately making things difficult
A beautiful and sweet female voice sounded, interrupting Ye Hao's memories, she faintly retracted her thoughts, restrained her emotions that had just fluctuated, her face was indifferent, and she raised her eyes slightly to look at the comer.
That person is Jun Yuyao, the lord of Ruiwang County, I saw her combing a beautiful bun, her emerald green head and face glowing in the sun, lightly sweeping her eyebrows, applying thin powder to her face, bright and glamorous, wearing a long skirt with a plain waist of rolling snow spulle on the backing, the edge of the skirt is embroidered with layers of lily of the valley flowers with silver threads, standing three feet away from Ye Zhen, smiling, looking at them.
There were some noble ladies behind him, all of whom looked disdainful, staring at Ye Hao with disgust, hindering Jun Yuyao's face, but they didn't dare to speak first.
Ye Hao smiled, blessed her body, and said slowly: "Ye Hao meets the county lord." There is nothing wrong with etiquette, actions, and words, and they are generous and decent.
Cheng Jingxian also followed: "Cheng Jingxian pays a visit to the county lord."
Jun Yuyao smiled slightly, waved generously so that they didn't need to be restrained, his eyes swept over Ye Hao on the side, and he silently withdrew it, and said with a smile: "The two young ladies really make it easy for the county lord to find!" The sisters are all chanting poems in the gazebo, splashing pen and ink, why don't the two young ladies show their style? Why bother to be bored in this secluded place. ”
As he spoke, he walked closer again, smiling at Ye Hao, but he actually forced them to go to the pavilion.
Cheng Jingxian subconsciously wanted to refuse, frowned, and was about to refuse, but the corners of Ye Hao's lips curled slightly, and she had already spoken: "The county lord has invited me so kindly, Miss Cheng and I naturally want to go."
agreed, in order to cut off Jun Yuyao as an excuse to make trouble, where did she not know Jun Yuyao's thoughts, she knew that she was not good at reciting poetry, and the painting work was also of an average level, where could she be elegant? It's just self-defeating and a joke.
When Cheng Jingxian heard Ye Hao say this, she swallowed the words in her mouth hard, and her face was a little worried, this Ye Hao clearly said that she didn't like to join in the fun, why did she change her mind again? Could it be that there is a disagreement? It really puzzled her.
"Okay, two young ladies, please ......" Jun Yuyao turned around, her eyes flashed with a hint of calculation, and the smile on her face deepened. Ye Hao, Ye Hao, you can be regarded as throwing yourself into the net today!
Many nobles in the pavilion gathered around a painting on the table, commenting on the first and the first, seeing Jun Yuyao coming slowly, tidying up their skirts one by one, blessing their bodies, and respectfully saying in unison: "County Lord Jin'an!"
Jun Yuyao's eyes were full of pride, raised her chin, waved her hand arrogantly, and said generously: "You ladies don't have to be restrained, everyone is relaxed at the flower banquet today!"
After speaking, he sat unceremoniously on the stone bench, supported his chin with his hand, lazily stretched out his hand and pointed to a picture of chrysanthemums on the table, and said lazily: "This picture of chrysanthemums was obtained by the lord of this county for a thousand dollars from Master An, but it is a pity that there is a poem missing, why don't you all try it?"
The county lord spoke, they naturally didn't dare not listen, but there was still a little shy no one to try, they all shook their heads modestly, thinking, this Master An is a famous painter in Northern Chu, I heard that he specializes in painting for the royal family, and the county lord of Ruiwang is fortunate to be able to get Master An's real pen, if the poems they make are not good, it is not to tarnish this chrysanthemum picture, but also to lose their face.
The county lord of Ruiwang pretended to be unhappy, frowned and thought for a moment, suddenly realized, and instructed the maid who was waiting on the side to say something, and the maid retreated, everyone was puzzled, Ye Zhen stood behind Cheng Jingxian for a long time, thinking that this position was good, which could not only cover herself, but also save a lot of unnecessary trouble.
After a while, the maid brought a red lacquered wooden plate and walked respectfully in front of Jun Yuyao, Jun Yuyao stood up and reached out to lift the red cloth covering the wooden plate, and a tourmaline head was placed in the center of the wooden plate.
The nobles present were all surprised and almost exclaimed, the face turned out to be "watermelon tourmaline", watermelon tourmaline in the tourmaline is still precious, the county lord's approach made some young ladies can't help but want to try.
Jun Yuyao raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "This is the lottery head prepared by the county lord, ladies and gentlemen, don't shirk, do your best."
So, some young ladies tried to chant a few poems to praise chrysanthemums, but after all, they couldn't help but see her shaking her head, touching the chrysanthemum picture with her hand quite regretfully, sighing, extremely disappointed.
Cheng Jingxian turned her head sideways, looked at Ye Hao, who didn't know where she was wandering, her eyes widened, and she suggested in a low voice: "You can bear it, I look so boring, why don't you and I leave quietly?"
Ye Hao stared around, those noble ladies were racking their brains to think about poems, they really didn't have time to pay attention to them, it was best to leave, but would the county lord of Ruiwang let them go easily? Intuition told him that this Jun Yuyao had always been hostile to her and should not be taken lightly.
Jun Yuyao glanced at Ye Hao's direction, the corners of her lips rose slightly, and she pointed at random, and then smiled, "Presumably Miss Cheng must have done something good?" Confident? Seeing Miss Cheng's expression, the county lord seemed to be eager to try! She deliberately ordered Cheng Jingxian to make a fool of her, who asked her to stand with Ye Hao! Ask for your own hardship!
Cheng Jingxian didn't react, with a dull expression, and only after a while did she exclaim, "Me? "It's like it's extremely unbelievable, some embarrassed open mouth, after all, silent, I've never been good at composing poetry, these people don't know, this is clearly entertaining her!
Even so, he still accepted it and said with a wry smile: "It's okay, the courtiers are ugly."
After thinking for a while, I found that someone secretly pulled down her sleeves, raised her eyes, and saw the girl's lips move slightly, spitting out some words, Cheng Jingxian nodded happily, and confidently read: "Qiu Ju can be proud of the cold, the wind and frost are evil, the nature is cold-resistant, and the wind is cold."
Jun Yuyao looked at Cheng Jingxian in disbelief, and opened her eyes unwillingly, did such a masterpiece really come out of this girl's mouth? However, she had to admit that this poem was really good, and she couldn't, so she had to reluctantly boast: "Miss Cheng's poem is good, and it even wins the heart of the county lord."
Ye Hao looked at the girl with inquiring eyes, the girl was the so-called number one beauty in the world, Luo Lingsu also seemed to notice that someone was looking at her, Wan Er smiled, gentle and harmless, nodded slightly, Ye Hao had no choice but to nod slightly and return the salute.
Cheng Jingxian thanked Jun Yuyao first, and said: "The county lord praised it falsely, and the courtiers didn't dare to be it." After saying the polite words, he looked at Luo Lingsu with some gratitude, thinking that this Luo Lingsu is not only beautiful and good-hearted, but also has both talent and good character, which is really unparalleled in the world!
Jun Yuyao pursed her mouth, and the maid took the wooden plate, respectfully walked to Cheng Jingxian and stopped her steps, Cheng Jingxian took the wooden plate, and thanked her again, secretly thinking that this face should be given to Luo Lingsu later, she really deserved it.
Jun Yuyao said again: "By the way, if everyone goes to the banquet, the mother concubine has set up a flower banquet in the garden, don't miss the time." The eyes of those noble ladies who were attracted by one sentence moved away from Cheng Jingxian, and their tones were filled with a faint displeasure, which made those noble ladies have to guess cautiously that they had done something wrong, which attracted the displeasure of the county lord.
Ye Rong walked up to Jun Yuyao, held her arm affectionately, and smiled mischievously, "County Lord, you and I have to have a good chat today, otherwise I won't rely on you." Performing this play here is to silently show her that Ye Rong has a lot of contact with the county lord, and she does not forget to prolong her voice proudly, so that everyone can listen to it clearly, and she is dryly envious.
Jun Yuyao showed a smile at this time, and gently poked the tip of Ye Rong's eyebrows with her slender white and tender fingers, "You, you are really getting more and more unpresentable." Despite this, his tone did not mean to blame, but his face became softer, as if he was a sister to Ye Rong.
The flower banquet was set up next to the pavilion not far away, it was an outdoor banquet, everyone followed Jun Yuyao all the way over, Ye Ning didn't know when he silently walked next to Ye Hao, and walked side by side with Ye Hao without saying a word, feeling bitter in his heart.
Thinking of the moment she came to Ye Rongna with her eyes in a daze, and was belittled by those so-called concubines countless times.
First with a look of disdain, then quietly a few steps away from her, deliberately distancing herself, and then intentionally or unintentionally asking about her identity, all those questions that embarrassed her, so blatantly looking down on herself.
However, she can only bow her head, accept it, be silent, and suppress her resentment in her heart, all because she is an unfavored concubine! She is unwilling, why?
Ye Hao never lost the resentment floating in Ye Ning's eyes, as well as the solemn and terrifying face, thinking that she had touched a nail, where would those concubines pay attention to her as a concubine, but if she was so uncomposed, there would be no good fruit to eat in the future.
Jun Yuyao naturally sat on the upper seat, and the women sat down below, a wooden table was placed in front of everyone, and some fruit plates and some cold dishes were placed on the table, Jun Yuyao lazily leaned on the back of the chair behind her, and greeted kindly, "Let's try this flower cake, this cake is the latest dessert developed by the chef of the palace, this flower cake, but it took a lot of thought for the cook, and I hope you like it......"
Ye Hao took a piece of flower cake with chopsticks, took a bite, the flowers mixed with the dough entrance, only felt that the fragrance of flowers overflowed the mouth, this is really a novel approach, and without losing the floral fragrance of flowers, the residual fragrance is endlessly surrounded on the tip of the tongue, the lips and teeth are fragrant, the aftertaste is endless, and I can't help but eat a few more bites.
Seeing this, Jun Yuyao suddenly smiled, and a hint of calculation flashed in her eyes, "Ah, Miss Ye Si doesn't eat much, this cake is too sweet and greasy, Feiyan go and pour a cup of hot tea for Miss Ye Si to get rid of the greasy." He added: "This cake, the fourth lady is not greedy, if you like it, you can ask the cook in my house to ask about the method, and go back to the Ye Mansion to let the cook learn to make it."
Feiyan walked to Ye Hao's side, holding a teapot in her hand, and was about to pour tea into the cup, but she somehow spilled the whole pot of tea on Ye Hao's skirt with an unsteady step, and suddenly, Ye Hao was soaked from her chest to her waist.
She frowned slightly, she didn't believe that this maid had no intention of making a mistake, how could the maid of the palace make such a low-level mistake, and there was no anxiety in the eyes of the flying goose, and it was plain as if she had expected it a long time ago, really, interestingly......
Today, it seems that there will inevitably be trouble......
