The grass grows and the warbler flies in the February sky, and the willows are drunk with spring smoke. After the first month of Mengchun, which is still cold in winter, it is the bright mid-spring February. On the fourth day of the second lunar month, Yan Hagi received an invitation from the Qiu family. The Qiu family is the maiden family of Concubine Qiu Hui, a small family in the capital, a few years ago, the saint was sealed in the harem, and Concubine Qiu's mother was promoted from the second concubine to the first concubine by virtue of her son.

The seventh prince born to Concubine Qiu Hui has reached the age of seventeen, and has been named the king of Qi by the saint, and is about to leave the palace to build a mansion. The Yan family and the Qiu family have never had anything to do with each other, and when they received the invitation from the Qiu family, Yan Hagi was a little surprised, and he couldn't make up his mind, so he went to ask the lord of Nanping, "Mother, am I going?" ”

"Why don't you want to go?" The county lord of Nanping asked with a smile.

Yan Hagi pouted, "I'm not familiar." ”

The county lord of Nanping smiled lightly: "It's ripe after a few more entertainments." "The Qiu family has always been low-key and inconspicuous, but as the Seven Princes grow up and build a mansion, I am afraid that some ambitions will be born. The prince who doesn't want to be the emperor is not a good prince, so it is understandable that the Qiu family wants to help King Qi fight for that position.

Understanding is understanding, the Yan family will not turn to support the King of Qi, but although the Yan family has a firm position and supports orthodoxy, it is impossible to die of old age and not want to interact with these princes and princes.

Yan Hagi listened to the words of the county lord of Nanping, and also knew what she meant, "Then I'll go play for a day." ”

"It's the Flower Dynasty Festival, so it's good if you bring a gift for the occasion." The county lord of Nanping told her.

Yan Hao's eyes flickered, "Mother give me one." ”

The county lord of Nanping twisted her cheek lightly, "There are so many things in your private vault, and you have to loot your mother's." ”

"Mother, don't be so stingy, who made me your precious daughter." Yan Hagi's dead face is authentic.

"A bad girl, there's a baby there." The county lord of Nanping pretended to dislike the tunnel.

"Just baby, just baby." Yan Hagi rolled into the arms of the county lord of Nanping.

"Okay, baby, baby, it's my mother's baby." The county lord of Nanping hugged her and smiled, in the end, as she wanted, let Amber open the treasury and let her pick things.

Just when the mother and daughter of the Yan family were laughing, the carriage of the lady of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites, who went to Guangji Temple to make incense, fell off the cliff. When the rescuers descended to the cliff, all they found were the bodies of her and her two maids, as well as a broken carriage.

"Life is impermanent, and life is as thin as paper. Tomorrow or the accident, no one knows which will come first. Yan Hao felt that life was very fragile, but she and the young lady were only nodding friends, and she still remembered that this young lady had visited the Anguo Mansion after Fu Zhixing found it. Therefore, there is no pretense of sadness and false condolences.

After a few days of investigation, the government concluded that it was an accident. No matter how unwilling the Ministry of Rites and Shangshu family is, they can only accept such a result.

On February 12, the Flower Dynasty Festival, Yan Tong'an, Yan Tonghua and Yan Tongzhu went to the Tribute House to participate in the second exam of Chunqiu; Yan Hagi went to Qiu's house as a guest, she wanted to take Yan Hong with her, after all, Yan Hong was only one year younger than her, it was time to go out and make friends with people, but this girl was greedy and had a bad stomach, so she couldn't go out.

The Qiu family sent an invitation in the name of Qiu Xi, the eldest lady of Qiu, Qiu Xi is the cousin of King Qi, and after turning around, Yan Hagi is a generation shorter than Qiu Xi; But everyone is in their own way, Yan Hagi will never call Qiu Xi's cousin, and Qiu Xi will not treat Yan Hagi as his niece's daughter.

There were piles of carriages in front of Qiu's house, and the county lord of Heyi got out of the carriage, and when he saw the carriage with the logo of the Huai'en Mansion coming, he didn't rush in, and when he saw Yu Qingqing getting down from the carriage, he raised his voice and called: "Qingqing." ”

"County Lord." Yu Qingqing walked over, "I don't know if Xiaoxiao is here?" ”

"Just go in and see." Lord Heyi said with a smile.

The two were about to go in hand in hand, and the maidservant of the palace said, "County Lord, the Yan family's carriage is here." ”

Xiaoxiao walked behind us. The two stopped.

Yan Hao got out of the car and saw the county lord of Heyi and Yu Qingqing standing by the door, "Why don't you go in?" What are you doing standing here? ”

"I'm waiting for you." Lord Heyi and Yu Qingqing said with a smile.

The three of them entered the gate of Qiu's house together, and immediately a maidservant girl came to ask An to lead the way and go to the hall to see Qiu Xi; There were already nine young girls sitting in the flower hall, all of whom were people who could usually be met at banquets. The girl sitting in the middle is today's master Qiu Xi, she is wearing a scarlet dress, her skin is fair, and her appearance is seven or eight points similar to Concubine Qiu Hui.

Although Concubine Qiu Hui is not as beautiful as Concubine Li, her appearance is not bad. Well, none of the concubines in the harem are ugly, niece Xiao Gu, so Qiu Xi's appearance is also outstanding. After a salute, everyone sat down, and the maidservant served tea to Yan Hagi and the others.

Everyone said polite words, what "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I am very worried." "What" What is the pattern embroidered on your clothes? So chic. "What" your hairpin is so beautiful, is it produced by Cuizhen Building? "And so on.

These ladies are beautiful, staying in the backyard of the inner house all day long, and they have lived almost the same, either reading and learning calligraphy, or embroidering and tailoring, and then learning some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting to kill time.

After chatting for a while, a few more young ladies came, and the flower hall became a little crowded, Qiu Xi smiled: "Everyone, please move to the garden, it is more spacious." ”

So everyone was led to the garden by the maidservant, Qiu Xi still stayed in the flower hall, and obviously there were still some guests who had not yet arrived. The county lord of Heyi couldn't help but whisper, "How many people did she invite?" ”

"At first glance, she is a person who is delicate in all directions, long-sleeved and good at dancing, and no matter how many people you invite, she can come over." Yu Qingqing said with a smile.

The county lord of Heyi pouted noncommittally.

Sitting down in the flower-filled pavilion, someone asked, "County Lord, do you know why Miss Qiu is holding a banquet today?" ”

Lord Heyi shook his head, "I don't know." ”

Yan Hao's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Miss Chen, if you know, tell us about it." ”

The others chimed in: "Tell me, why? ”

Miss Chen successfully aroused everyone's interest and attention, felt a sense of accomplishment, and lowered her voice and said, "The Holy Lord and the Queen Mother are going to choose a concubine for His Royal Highness King Qi." ”

King Qi is seventeen years old, and it is normal for the saint and the queen to choose a concubine for him, and a young lady next to him, "What does this have to do with Miss Qiu?" "Could it be that the Qiu family is planning to find candidates for the saint and the queen?

"Oh, Miss Qiu is Concubine Qiu Hui's niece, and Her Royal Highness King Qi is a cousin, His Royal Highness King Qi likes Miss Qiu, you won't know it, right? Miss Qiu ...... His Royal Highness Qi Wang," Chen Xiaochen squeezed her eyebrows, "You guys understand now, right?" ”

Everyone showed a look of 'I see', eyebrows and eyes, everything was silent. Yan Hagi thought about it for a while, and probably understood what Miss Chen meant, Qiu Xi's banquet was most likely to announce her ownership of King Qi.

But she, Yu Qingqing, and the county lord of Heyi are all juniors of King Qi, so they don't need to do this in front of them, right?

After gossiping a few words about the scandal between King Qi and Qiu Xi, everyone's topic turned to jewelry and clothing, and then someone mentioned the matter of Miss Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, "That day, I saw her arguing with the gentle county lord with full of anger, but I didn't expect to die in Huangquan in a blink of an eye." ”

"Good people say it's gone."

"No one wants this kind of accident to happen."

"yes, who would have thought that the carriage would fall off a cliff."

"I heard that my neck and limbs were broken, it's really pitiful."

After chatting for a while, Qiu Xi came to the garden to greet the guests, and she came with the county lord Wenwen, Lilac, Sun Dongmei and others. Yan Hao counted the number of people, including Qiu Xi, a total of twenty people.

Friends and friends of the Flower Dynasty Festival are at the home of the flowers, each invites guests to drink, and the writer writes poems. It is a custom to enjoy flowers and poems on the Flower Dynasty Festival, not to mention that there is a talented woman who is gentle and the county lord, and it is inevitable to enjoy flowers and poems. The county lord of Heyi held his cheeks and said boredly: "Can't you enjoy the flowers in peace?" Why do you have to write poems? ”

"It's good to write a song casually, we are not talented women, so we don't need to write too well." Yu Qingqing said with a smile.

Yan Hagi also thought so, but the gentle county lord found her, "I wonder if Miss Yan can write amazing peony poems this time?" ”

The people of the time regarded the Flower Dynasty Festival as the birth day of the Kao peony, and the main thing to enjoy during the Flower Dynasty Festival was the peony flower. Peony is one of the most popular flowers, and it is not easy to write amazing peony poems.

Yan Hao looked at the gentle county lord coldly, "It doesn't matter if I can write it or not, the main thing in the county is that I can't write it, and it will have the reputation of being the first talented woman in Beijing." ”

"Don't let us live up to our expectations." Yu Qingqing said with a smile.

"With the talented woman of the county lord here, I won't be ugly." The county lord of Heyi finally found an excuse not to write poetry, happy.

"County Lord, hurry up and write poems, we'll all wait." Yan Hagi deliberately urged her.

Yu Qingqing also smiled and said, "Yes, we are all waiting to appreciate the county lord's masterpiece." ”

"That's right, you should hurry up and compose a poem, don't get in the way of us enjoying the flowers and chatting." The county lord waved his hand, as if he was chasing flies.

The gentle county lord opened his mouth, and it was said that Yan Hagi had three mouths, and she just said a word, and Yan Hagi and the three of them were waiting for her with a bunch of words. But Wen Xian was unwilling to be defeated like this, and stared at Yan Hao, "You are so vulgar, you are not worthy of him at all." Fu Zhixing is a brilliant and talented person, and she should match her, and only she can understand his feelings, his mind, and his ambitions.

"The county lord will tell him this." Yan Hao felt that this rotten peach blossom was provoked by Fu Zhixing, and it was up to him to solve it.

Yu Qingqing sneered: "The county lord shouldn't be able to write poems, so he deliberately messes around and wants to fool the past, right?" ”

"It's not necessarily whether you have talent or not, maybe the reputation of talented women is touted." The county lord of Heyi mocked.

At this time, Qiu Xi found that there was tension here, and hurriedly came over to relieve the siege, "County lord, the pen and ink are ready, you go over and write poems." "I didn't hear that these four people were not in harmony, if she had known that the relationship was not good, she would have invited them separately.

Wen County Lord had the steps down, so she followed Qiu Xi away, and after walking a few steps, she looked back at Yan Hagi with a light smile on the corner of her mouth, her eyes were vicious.
