Section 53 Chapter 46 Gossip

After a period of silence, Wu Qianrou, who is the most talkative on weekdays, opened her mouth first: "Okay, okay, you say it or I say it, it doesn't count, even if there is really a happy thing, but he may not be able to end up married." As he spoke, he took Mengyu's hand and continued: "I can meet my sister, which is already the greatest luck in my life. My sister is so smart, but she doesn't dislike me for being so stupid, and I'm already very satisfied. ”

"Sister, it's true, they all say that Mengyu's poetry was just casual, and it shouldn't be true, and Sister Wu can also play the piano, I won't say it at all."

"Sister Mengyu really won't?"

"Seriously." Mengyu nodded affirmatively.

Wu Qianrou looked around the entire boudoir of the Falling Cherry Pavilion, and sure enough, she didn't see any trace of musical instruments. "Then why doesn't my sister ask a master to study, Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin love you so much, I think I will definitely agree."

Mengyu let go of Wu Qianrou's hand, slowly walked back to the tea table, and said: "My biological mother died because of difficult childbirth, so my father, who has a deep relationship with my mother, has always disliked me. In addition, I was not in good health in the past, so my study time was very limited, so I had time to study other things in the future. This is also something that I accidentally learned from the mouth of the apricot.

Wu Qianrou smiled at Mengyu, wanting to dilute this faint sorrow: "It's okay, next time I wait for my sister to buy a musical instrument, and my sister will teach you." Immediately, he stuck out his tongue again and said, "It's just that my skills are also very poor, and I'm afraid that I will teach my sister badly." ”

Mengyu really seemed to be infected by Wu Qianrou's smile, and laughed: "Sister Wu is willing to teach me, I'm already very happy!" ”

"By the way, does Sister Mengyu know about the Li Gongzi who divorced you?" Wu Qianrou knew that Mengyu didn't like this man who had a marriage contract with her at all, so she dared to gossip on her face.

"He? What could he do? Mengyu looked careless, and he was just an inconsequential person anyway.

"Sure enough, my sister doesn't know, I heard that the marriage between the Li Mansion and the Weiwu Marquis Mansion has been brought up again."

"Or is it the Mighty Marquis Mansion? Or is it that Miss Jiang Si? Mengyu's surprise was only for Jiang Qinghua, not for anything else.

On that day, the Shuiming Temple was incense, and I happened to see Jiang Qinghua, the fourth lady of the Mighty Marquis Mansion. is coquettish but not charming, sassy but not pretentious, Mengyu has always had a good impression of her. It's just that I don't know why such an excellent person fell in love with such a man who didn't understand taste and understanding. Listening to Wu Qianrou's meaning, Li Yanxu is simply a martial arts idiot who only knows how to practice martial arts and does not understand the amorous customs. How could such a person know how to hurt a woman like a delicate flower. It's really blind to her beautiful eyes (in fact, the word 'beautiful eyes', Mengyu wants to say rudely).

"Yes, that's her, Sister Mengyu has also heard of her?"

"Well, not only have I heard of it, but I have seen it. I just can't figure out why such a woman would like him. When it comes to Jiang Yanxu, Mengyu's tone has always been disdainful.

"It turns out that Sister Mengyu has seen her?"

"yes, it feels pretty good."

"I have only seen her a few times when the Flower Banquet jointly held by Prince Luo's Mansion and Prince Cheng's Mansion has seen her, and she doesn't come to Princess Luo's flower banquet on weekdays."

"Why don't you come?" Mengyu was still looking for many beauties at that time, but she never found it, and afterwards, she forgot to inquire.

"Sister Mengyu really doesn't know anything!" Wu Qianrou twisted her handkerchief, covered her mouth and laughed.

"My sister laughed at me, so don't you tell my sister soon!" Mengyu was indeed a little ashamed to be said, she had been worried about the matter of Lin Mansion, how could she have spare time to take care of things outside. As he spoke, his hand stepped forward to scratch Wu Qianrou's itch.

"Good sister, stop it, sister, I'll just say it......" Wu Qianrou smiled on her face, but her eyes were full of tears.

Mengyu let go of her hand, and saw Wu Qianrou wipe her tears and continued: "The old lady of the Mighty Marquis Mansion is a military minister in the court, who has been fighting on the battlefield all the year round and has made a lot of contributions to the Lan Dynasty. In the frontier barracks, there is a saying that "Jiang Shisong is in command, and it is very easy to fight". Jiang Shisong is the old lady Jiang, that is, the former mighty marquis. It is said that Prince Cheng and Prince Luo, who were both princes back then, asked to marry Jiang Ruyue, the concubine of the old lady Jiang who had been named the mighty marquis, to increase their bargaining chips to the highest position. But the old lady Jiang was born as a military general, and she took a fancy to Prince Cheng, who was also brave and good at fighting, so today's Prince Cheng Princess is the former Jiang Ruyue. ”

"Eh, that's what happened. Who is the princess of Naluo? ”

"Sister, don't worry, listen to me slowly. After Prince Luo, who paid more attention to talent and learning, was rejected, he also asked to marry Zhao Ruxi, the daughter of Zhao Taishi, one of the two Jiaojiao in Kyoto who was as famous as Jiang Ruyue at that time. One month, I don't know if it's a coincidence or fate, the two no longer compare with each other all the time. With Prince Cheng and Princess Jiang Ruyue as her companion, more are the daughters of the military generals' families; With Prince Luo's concubine Zhao Ruxi as her companion, more of them are the daughters of civil officials. ”

"Then isn't your father a general soldier, and that's also a military attachΓ©?" Yumeyu thoughtfully handed the teacup up.

Wu Qianrou took a sip elegantly, then wiped the remaining tea on her lips with a handkerchief and said, "There are military attaches like my father, but there are very few. Similarly, on the side of Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng, there are also civil officials to help. ”

"Oh, I see! Is it because the officials in the court have different political views, so even the female dependents are divided into two factions, and the flower banquet is also held separately? ”

"Yes, occasionally there will be a flower banquet hosted by two princesses at the same time, and at that time, it is really a hundred flowers blooming and competing for beauty. The competition at the flower banquet is simply not the same as our day in Prince Luo's mansion. ”

"There will definitely be a lot of beautiful women by then." Mengyu was a little tired from listening to it, and took a big sip of the rest of the tea from his teacup.

"What is a beauty, if there is a woman with a very beautiful appearance and outstanding talent in any camp, then the princess of the other side will definitely be so angry that her face is blue."

"Okay, next time I'm going to tell Mrs. Wu that Sister Wu dares to entertain the two princesses like this."

"Sister Mengyu is like this again, I won't tell you. Sister, I still want to mention you. Wu Qianrou pretended to be angry and said.

"Okay, it's all my sister's fault, what does my sister want to mention me?" Dream Whisper's dog-legged face.

"My sister probably doesn't know that since that day of the flower banquet, your poem has spread all over Kyoto, and even the talented people in other places have heard of it. are praising their sister for being broad-minded, not arguing or angry, and being high-spirited. After the Luohu incident was clarified, it made my sister's popularity rise to a certain level. Wu Qianrou's mysterious smile made Mengyu feel cold in her heart.

"So what?"

"Now my sister is a good card in the hands of Prince and Princess Luo. I think it shouldn't be long before the flower banquet held by Prince Luo and Princess Cheng at the same time will start again. Moreover, my sister is definitely among the invitees! ”

"Isn't that miserable?" Bitter Dream Language, I feel sad when I think of such a scene.

"It's not too bad, it's just going to get a little bit of attention. It is difficult for many officials and their dependents to participate in such a flower banquet. ”

"Will you participate?" In addition to Wu Qianrou, Mengyu only knows one Jiang Qinghua, and now she knows that the two camps are different, and it is not good to rush forward to say hello, if Wu Qianrou does not go, and she does not recognize other people, then she will have to continue to be lonely. Wu Qianrou's existence, Mengyu is like hugging the only driftwood on the sea.

"I don't even want to participate, but my father's official rank is there, even if I want to pretend to be sick, I will definitely be scolded to death by my mother." Every time she goes to such a banquet, Wu Qianrou will always be a stepping stone for others to take the position, and with her existence, others will never have to be afraid of being unlucky to be the last one. Mrs. Wu also knew that this was the case every time, but for some reason, she was still happy to participate in the flower banquet every time.

"Fortunately, you're also ......," Mengyu hugged Wu Qianrou's arm and said happily.

"It's useless for me to be there. In addition to the chess that takes a long time, you don't have to participate in the competition, the piano, the book, and the painting, my sister will definitely not dodge as easily as last time! ”

"What then?" Mengyu lay on the table weakly, this qin, didn't she want her to die!
