Chapter 8 Hairpins
Su Xi flicked his sleeves, stood up, and arched his hand, "It was Su Xi's sudden visit that interrupted Miss Gu's hairpin ceremony, Gu Xiang doesn't need to think about this king, just continue!" ”
Gu Qifeng respectfully saluted him, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your understanding!" After all, Wujing has an unwritten rule that if the prince comes to the night banquet, without their permission, he generally cannot perform a ceremony such as a hairpin, even if he is the prime minister.
After all, if the prince came to the night banquet in person, it would be a family hospitality, and besides, it was very rare to give hairpins at the night banquet, but Gu Zhaoyan had left the Gu Mansion for six years, if it dragged on any longer, after she was married, her identity would not look good, and he would definitely not allow this kind of thing to happen.
So he hurriedly arranged this night banquet, which was also Gu Zhaoyan's hairpin awarding ceremony, just to announce the identity of Gu Zhaoyan's daughter-in-law, but he didn't expect His Royal Highness King Shu to come as promised, and it happened to be at the time of the hairpin, so he had to stop, and now he heard him say this, and he was grateful in his heart.
But thinking of this, Gu Qifeng's heart was full of sorrow again, King Su is here, and Wujing on the second day must be known in the streets and alleys, not to mention that he also gave Gu Zhaoyan a jade pendant. In this way, Yan Er has just returned home, and I am afraid that she will be tied up with His Royal Highness King Shu, which is probably not a good thing.
I don't know what King Su thinks. Suddenly, several thoughts had flashed through Gu Qifeng's mind.
He took out the golden hairpin again, Risheng hurriedly helped Gu Zhaoyan up, led her forward, leaned over slightly, and Gu Qifeng pinned the golden hairpin in her hair. "From today on, the little girl Gu Zhaoyan is the concubine of the Gu Mansion!" Someone suddenly said up, "In this way, there are a few concubines in the Gu Mansion!" ”
Hearing this, Gu Zhao's face turned white, Mrs. Xue's heart tightened, Gu Qifeng glanced at them without changing his face, "I have two concubines in the Gu Mansion, and Gu has never said that there is only one concubine in the Gu Mansion." ”
Everyone said, "Congratulations to Gu Xiang, find a daughter!" ”
Gu Zhaolian raised her eyes to look at Gu Qifeng with some surprise, and then showed a smile, yes, her father really still cares about her, no matter how Gu Zhaoyan is, she is an orphan girl after all, but she is different, she still has a mother.
Mrs. Xue's palms were sweating nervously, she was actually not sure what Gu Qifeng was thinking, just at that moment, she was really afraid that Gu Qifeng would say that there was only one concubine in the Gu Mansion, so after today, she and Li'er would become a joke in the entire Wujing, and they would no longer be able to raise their heads in Wujing. But now, it's different, her poor son is a concubine, a concubine who has seen guests from all over the world, even if there is no hairpin ceremony, no one can say anything to her anymore!
Gu Zhaoyan straightened up, held a fan, and was about to bow down to Gu Qifeng and complete the ceremony, but he heard Gu Qifeng say softly, "Yan'er, Lian'er, take off the fan and greet His Royal Highness King Su and everyone here!" ”
Hearing him say this, Su Xi rubbed his hand on the wine glass for a moment, and then evoked a faint smile, I have to say that Gu Qifeng is actually a very shrewd person! In this way, tomorrow's rumors have much less to do with Gu Zhaoyan.
The women of Wujing, during the night banquet, have always used a fan to cover their faces, one is to give people a hazy beauty, and the other is also a kind of etiquette, but there is a kind of etiquette, to take off the fan and bow to the person who is watching the ceremony. Although it was Gu Zhaoyan's hairpin ceremony just now, it was to let Gu Zhaolian take off the fan and bow with her, which can be regarded as recognizing these two concubines at the same time.
When Gu Zhaolian heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, a smile immediately climbed up her cheeks, she walked to Gu Zhaoyan's side quite proudly, put down her fan, and stared at Gu Zhaoyan proudly, like a proud peacock.
Seeing her like this, Gu Zhaoyan smiled, took down the fan, time seemed to be forbidden, even Mrs. Xue was a little distracted, although she had seen Gu Zhaoyan yesterday, but today she was still amazed by her dress. Even Gu Zhaolian, who was dressed in peachy pink, was a little overshadowed by her side.
Gu Zhaopian saw her like this, the jealousy in her heart surged up, she thought that her appearance could already be her proud capital, but she never thought that Gu Zhaoyan was like this. Su Xi stared at her, a smile flashed in his eyes, but his face was still that gentle and weak. Everyone was shocked.
Gu Zhaoyan touched his face, looked at them a little strangely, shook his head, and knelt down first, Gu Zhaolian saw this, and hurriedly knelt down, they folded their hands, put them on top of their heads, and bowed down slowly! Only then did everyone come back to their senses, and a thought flashed in their hearts at the same time, beautiful, too beautiful! I don't know who will be better than the first beauty in Wujing, this year's New Year's banquet will definitely be very exciting!
When they had finished praying, they got up. Su Xi got up, "Thank you Gu Xiang for your hospitality, Su Xi is already full of wine and food, so he will say goodbye first!" ”
Gu Qifeng hurriedly gave up his hand, "The prince is tired!" As he spoke, he stepped forward to send him off.
Su Xi smiled softly and waved his hand, "Gu Xiang stops!" So saying, he turned around and stepped out of the courtyard, and when he was gone, everyone got up and said goodbye, and a night banquet came to an end.
On the carriage, Yue Heng asked Shu Xi in a low voice, "Why did the prince suddenly want to come to the Gu Mansion for a night banquet this time!" also ...... "I also gave the long-patterned jade pendant to Gu Zhaoyan."
Su Xi looked at him and said with a smile, "What does Yue Heng think! ”
Yue Heng scratched her head, "It won't be the prince who suddenly understands Fengyue!" ”
Shu Xi laughed, he lifted the curtain with one hand, and said softly, "If you take my jade pendant, you will see you again!" ”
Yue Heng looked at his own prince and widened his eyes, "You can't really be ......" You really fell in love with Miss Gu's family!
Su Xi didn't answer, just looked out the car window, no why, just felt that he should catch her, catch the girl who bit him, after all, he couldn't let her bite in vain! He thought.
