Seeing Zhong Taojiao's gag, Gu Fanghua smiled and said: "Grandmother, this jade sister's surname is Zhu and her name is Yuyao, and she is as her name." The eldest aunt simply hurts as if she were her own daughter. ”

"Yes, yes, yes! My sister likes her more than she does me. ”

Zhong Taojiao and Gu Fanghua sang and harmonized, Zhu Yuyao blushed, but she still stood straight, without the slightest childishness.

Empress Dowager Zhong nodded in her heart, this daughter of a literati family still has to be a little good.

This Zhu Yuyao is indeed good.

Concubine Bai Xian is becoming more and more beautiful and dazzling to Gu Fanghua, and it is no longer strange. As for Zhong Taojiao, she has already made a marriage, and it is not in her concern.

Her attention was on Zhu Yuyao.

"This daughter's home from the water town in the south of the Yangtze River is really extraordinary. This whole body is magnificent, and it is bookish, but it is not something that can be raised from one generation to another. Queen Mother, do you say? ”

Regarding what Concubine Bai Xian said, Empress Dowager Zhong echoed with a smile: "Yes." One generation looks at eating, the second generation sees through, the third generation looks at articles, the fourth generation looks at actions, and the fifth generation looks at the qi. The bookish smell of Yu Yao can only be soaked out for at least five generations. ”

Looking at Empress Dowager Zhong, she made no secret of her liking for Zhu Yuyao, and Concubine Bai Xian's heart tightened.

Don't?

Is Empress Dowager Zhong wanting to marry Yan Rongling? Or do you want to stuff this girl with no background to Yan Shaoxun?

Concubine Bai Xian said lightly: "Queen Mother, compared with Miss Zhu like this, my family's splendid beauty will be bleak. I don't know if Miss Zhu has any arrangements? If not, the concubine also wants to pull the strings. ”

Empress Dowager Zhong said hesitantly: "I don't know about this mourning family, but Concubine Xian, ordinary people are not worthy of this child, and the mourning family also likes it very much." ”

Seeing this, Concubine Bai Xian didn't dare to test again, and originally wanted Bai Jinse to go with Gu Fanghua and them.

You can also cultivate your feelings, and you can also win over Zhu Yuyao.

But before she could speak, Dongchun came in to report: "Back to the Queen Mother, the Holy Maiden of Miaojiang asks to see her." ”

Hua Xiaoxiao finally came, and Empress Dowager Zhong nodded slightly: "Pass her in." You girls, go sit down too, don't make people laugh. ”

Therefore, Gu Fanghua simply sat under Concubine Bai Xian, and everyone followed suit, leaving the other side for the flowers.

In the distance, they heard a jingling sound, and when Hua Xiaoxiao walked in full costume, everyone was surprised, it was really too weird.

I saw that Hua Xiaoyao was wearing a dark green seedling suit, which was very unique.

The upper body of the Miao suit is only below the chest, the sleeves are only up to the elbows, and the skirt below is also relatively short, only around the knees. Everywhere else was exposed, and all sorts of silver rings hung from them.

There was no bun on the top of his head, but a turban embroidered in the same color.

"Hua Xiaoxiao has seen the Queen Mother."

"Holy Maiden, excuse me. Winter and spring, watch and sit. ”

Hua Xiaoxiao did not sit down, but looked at it at a glance, and locked Princess Mingzhu into Gu Fanghua in golden dress from the clothes of several young ladies.

"You're Princess Pearl?"

"Yes, what advice?"

Hua Yaoyao took a few steps forward, came to Gu Fanghua, stared at her, and asked, "Do you like Xiao Yao?" ”

Gu Fanghua covered her mouth and smiled, and after looking Hua Xiaoxiao up and down for a while, she said, "Miao Jiang Holy Maiden, you asked the wrong person, right?" I have a lot of etiquette every week, and the young ladies are all dignified and reserved, where can I ask people like this? Maybe you should ask Xiao Yao. ”

Hua Yaoyao's eyes were slightly whiter, and she looked at Gu Fanghua gloomily.

"To like is to like, and not to like is not to like. What's not to say, it's just that I can't get used to your hypocrisy. ”

Gu Fanghua smiled lightly and said unhurriedly: "The reason why people are the chief of all things is because people understand shame and know shame. What is hypocrisy? ”

Hua Yaoyao smiled proudly: "It's what you call the life of your parents, the words of the matchmaker." As long as the daughters in our village are at least fifteen years old and the men are eighteen years old, they can participate in the bonfire dance. If you have someone who likes each other, you can take him home. ”

Saying that, Hua Xiaoyao was still a little pity, looking at Gu Fanghua and them.

"We don't need to be free at all, we just need to follow our own hearts."

Gu Fanghua patted it casually, and it was regarded as applause.

Then he joked for a long time: "Then if you feel that the two are not suitable after the bonfire, you can part ways at any time?" ”

"Of course! We are all good at gathering and dispersing, and we will never be bound by family background and so on. ”

Hua Yaoyao was very proud, and her chin was slightly raised to look at Gu Fanghua.

Gu Fanghua's only opinion on such a model is that the women in Miaojiang really have their heads. was eaten and wiped clean by others in vain, and I still think that it is a virtue to gather and disperse.

"The Holy Maiden of Miao Jiang is really extraordinary, then I wish you a successful bonfire every year, and you can change people every year. How's that? ”

When Zhu Yuyao heard this, a sip of tea almost squirted out, and she had already begun to cover her mouth and snicker. Zhong Taojiao also quickly understood, and said with a smile: "Mingzhu, if you can praise, praise more." ”

Bai Jinxiu also understood the meaning, and just wanted to speak, but Bai Xianfei pulled her sleeves covertly and signaled her to shut up.

Hua Xiaoxiao didn't find out that the mystery in these words, what she never forgot was Xiao Yao. He arched his hand and said, "The Queen Mother." Can I ask Xiao Yao to come out and see him? ”

"Miao Jiang Holy Maiden, this is not in accordance with the rules. Xiao Yao is now an important minister of the imperial court, and he still has to listen to the government in the previous dynasty, not a bad old woman from the mourning family who is sent at will. ”

After Empress Dowager Zhong refused, Hua Xiaoxiao still didn't give up, and said: "Then I want to go to the Imperial Garden for a walk, can I let Princess Mingzhu be with these young ladies?" ”

Gu Fanghua looked at Empress Dowager Zhong, and her eyes indicated that she was willing to go.

Empress Dowager Zhong smiled and said, "It's okay, Mingzhu, you take the holy maiden to the imperial garden for a walk." ”

Hua Xiaoyao bowed and took the lead in walking out, and Gu Fanghua followed suit. Zhu Yuyao and a group of them, talking and laughing, went to the imperial garden to see the flowers.

As soon as he walked through a bamboo forest, Hua Xiaoxiao stopped, stared at Gu Fanghua and said, "You are in the palace every day, and there are so many people around you?" ”

"Of course, the princess has the rank of a princess, and the chamberlain and the palace maid have a fixed number. I'm out to play today, and there are fewer people. ”

Gu Fanghua was very curious, she wanted to know what medicine was sold in the gourd.

Hua Yaoyao smiled coldly in her heart, and said with a smile in front of her: "Lord Mingzhu, I heard that you went to Liaodong with Xiao Yao?" ”

"Yes, Brother Zhong, Second Brother Gu, Yan Changxin and Yan Shaoxun, and others all went to Liaodong."

Gu Fanghua was very cooperative, waiting for the flowers to show their feet, and it was good to get the stolen goods.

Zhong Taojiao was now highly nervous, and her intuition sensed that something was wrong and dangerous. When she stared at the flowers, she even found the headscarf on her head, moving from time to time.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Hua Xiaoxiao took another step into the depths of the bamboo forest.
