Chapter 33: The Flower Feast
Song Nianan said, "If the emperor doesn't say it, what can the concubine do, how can the concubine be a woman?" ”
Indeed, if the emperor insisted on not saying it, how could she know the news of Ye Shen? Li Changfu glanced at Jiang Yinyu, and believed seven or eight points in her heart.
"Alas, peace be upon Your Highness. You're tired too, go back and rest. Since he decided that there was nothing of value from Song Nian'an's mouth, Li Changfu didn't plan to let her be an eyesore here, and waved her hand to make her retreat.
Song Nian'an retreated in a disciplined manner, with a well-behaved face.
After returning to the courtyard, Song Nianan was able to take off his whole body's defense, really relaxed, and was about to rest for a while, when he heard a coquettish shout outside, "The slave maid came to send a post to Concubine Song on the order of the crown princess!" ”
is arrogant, more powerful than him in this master.
Song Nianan frowned slightly, wondering in his heart, post? What post?
I went out and took it, only to see a few big characters written on it, Pei Fu Flower Banquet.
Pei Mansion? There are only a handful of people surnamed Pei in the capital, and there is only one who can invite them to move the East Palace.
After a little thought, a person's name appeared in Song Nian'an's mind - General Pei Yan Pei.
But Pei Yan is over half a hundred years old, Song Nianan opened the title page with his hand, and there were three big characters in the name, Pei Ningyue.
Miss Pei Fu Zheng'er is a well-known person.
With Pei Ningyue's capital, please ask the princess to believe in her, invite her, you have to think about it, it's not Song Nianan who slanders herself, her identity is really embarrassing, the princess of the dead country, not to mention the fence, is still a side concubine of the prince.
No matter what aspect it is, Pei Ningyue has no reason to invite her.
"As soon as you left on the front foot, Pei Fu sent a post on the back foot, and my mother remembered that you had served His Royal Highness meritoriously, and specially allowed the mother to go to the banquet." Xing'er's tone couldn't hear the slightest respect for Song Nian'an, and it was very perfunctory.
Fortunately, Song Nianan didn't care much about this, what she thought of was that even if the crown princess allowed her to go, it wasn't a banquet held by Li Changfu, and she could go if she said she could?
A slightly suspicious gaze swept over Apricot and lowered her eyes to the content of the invitation.
Sure enough, I saw that one of them wrote: The flower banquet is mainly based on appreciating poems, and talented people can go to the banquet regardless of whether they are high or low.
Song Nianan raised her eyebrows and accepted the post, "Thank you for your concubine." ”
After a while, the weather became gloomy again, Song Nianan sat in front of the window and shivered, and ordered Aster to boil hot water for a bath.
took off his clothes and looked at the large and small injuries on his body, Song Nianan had another headache.
She didn't remember how these scars were caused, since she had lost her memory at the bottom of the cliff until she regained her memory, she just remembered that her body was once the princess of the northern kingdom, and now she was the side concubine of Ye Shen.
And where did she come from? Or a vengeful ghost who died unjustly? When the original owner really disappears, she is also in a trance all day long.
Others, I don't remember anything.
Maybe you can ask Zhao Zi'an, but thinking of Zhao Zi'an's ugly face, Song Nian'an was very repulsed.
sighed lightly, no matter who she is, since she has become Ye Shen's side concubine, it is better to keep to herself, after all, Ye Shen is not bad to her now, isn't it?
If it is later...... Later, Ye Shen had a new love, so he... Just leave the East Palace.
Song Nianan was taken aback by this idea of his own, how could such a rebellious idea suddenly pop up?
Moreover, I didn't reject this idea in my heart, and I was even very excited and familiar, so I hurriedly used it to hide in warm water, and it took me half a day to relax.
"Aster."
Aster heard the sound and entered and changed Song Nian'an's clothes.
The flower banquet was held by Pei Ningyue, and the post was sent by Li Changfu, Song Nianan was not good at saving the face of the crown princess, even if it was the crown princess who was not favored by the prince.
Time flies, and soon it is the day of the flower banquet.
In the early morning, the sun was shining, it was a good day to enjoy the flowers, and Song Nian'an washed under the service of Aster.
"Niangniang, today is the flower banquet, and the slave maid will comb your hair with a chic hairstyle?" Aster looked at Song Nian'an in the bronze mirror, her delicate face even looked tacky, her mother was so good-looking, she would definitely overwhelm the crowd at the flower banquet!
Song Nianan frowned slightly, feeling inappropriate, "No need, just come as before." ”
This kind of day is the most taboo to take the master, and she should not toss blindly as a side concubine, so as not to fall into the hands of others.
Song Nianan packed up and met Li Changfu at the door when he left the house.
Dressed in a purple glass skirt, dressed up to attend.
Song Nianan just wanted to avoid this kind of competition, and stood aside in a low-key manner.
"Yo! Sister, so elegant! Li Changfu covered her mouth and smiled, looked Song Nian'an up and down, and saw that she was indeed dressed in plain clothes, and she didn't see anything else, so she smiled and said, "Sister, dress like this, don't blame the palace for not reminding you, it's not good for Miss Pei to blame later." ”
Song Nian'an didn't show it on his face, "The concubine's body is mixed with fish eyes, and naturally she can't compare to the brilliance of her mother." ”
Li Changfu smiled modestly and took the lead in getting into the carriage symbolizing the identity of the crown princess, and Song Nianan had no choice but to follow the carriage of the side concubine behind the crown princess.
The road was quite steady, and you could see the noise of the people from the carriage.
Well?
Song Nian'an's eyes were attracted by a man, this man was dressed in a white brocade robe, in the summer, but with a veil, strangely tight.
Doubts are doubts, Song Nian'an's gaze quickly retracted, the reason for the veil is strange, what if it is a rash on someone's face?
The man turned around and hid in the crowd, and Song Nian'an's carriage gradually stopped.
The Pei family has been a military general for generations, and they are quite favored, so there are really a lot of people who came this time.
Li Changfu also got out of the carriage at this time, and everyone saluted when they saw Li Changfu.
"The courtiers and others have seen the crown princess."
Ye Shen's desire to abolish Li Changfu is only known to the people in the East Palace, and in front of people, Li Changfu is still the glamorous, gentle and generous crown princess.
"Hurry up, Miss Pei said today, no matter how high or low, you are like this, it is really a pain in the palace."
"The crown princess is really as gentle and virtuous as rumored."
Li Changfu is still quite satisfied with this sentence, and her disguise over the years has been in vain, and the gentle and pure image of the crown princess has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Everyone's eyes fell on Song Nian'an beside Li Changfu, and looked at the carriage behind her suspiciously.
"Okay, let's go in quickly, so as not to make Miss Pei anxious." Li Changfu waved her hand, and the young ladies responded and withdrew their gaze at Song Nian'an.
Threes, threes, twos, and groups walked into Pei's mansion.
Among them, there was inevitably talk about Song Nian'an, although the voice was small, Song Nian'an still heard a few words.
"This is the Song concubine in the prince's mansion, right?"
"Oh, you can be quiet, I haven't seen it, how do I know, but look at the carriage is probably right."
"Concubine Song has been very favored by the prince recently?"
"Humph! It's just a cheap embryo, last time at the banquet in the prince's mansion, Miss Ben witnessed the glorious actions of Concubine Song, teasing the prince without saying anything, and was thrown to the ground by His Royal Highness the prince. ”
Many people know about this matter, but it was recently heard that Song Nianan was quite favored, so it was not broken, and now someone said the truth, and several young ladies looked at each other and looked at the woman who had just talked.
The delicate little face showed arrogance, the flaming red long skirt, people couldn't take their eyes off, there was no one beside her, she went up the steps alone, and answered their questions casually while walking, just under their amazing eyes, the footsteps did not stop, and she took the lead in Pei's mansion with her skirt.
"This is Miss Yan from the Dingguo Mansion!"
Who doesn't know who doesn't know, there is a famous beauty in Dingguo Mansion.
I don't like female celebrities and love knives and guns, I have practiced martial arts at a young age, and my temperament is also hot and tight, which is a famous difficulty in the capital.
Pei Ningyue was waiting for everyone in the garden early in the back of the house, and there were tables in one of the open spaces.
The ladies of each family first enjoyed the flowers, and the day that Pei Ningyue picked was a good time to enjoy the flowers.
Just after a light rain, you can still smell the fresh earthy smell in the air, the flowers are blooming, and you can see the water droplets in the leaves and petals if you look closely.
The sun after the rain is the most warm, and it is warm on the body, which makes people sigh.
The garden of Pei's Mansion is notoriously large, but Song Nianan doesn't like many people, and faintly finds that it seems that other young ladies always seem to have a vague resistance and alienation from her.
She also heard a little bit of the discussion just now, and she was very puzzled, wasn't she Ye Shen's side concubine? How can it be so unpopular.
But it didn't feel like it was because she was the princess of the dead country, she frowned, and seemed to have forgotten something very important.
The surface of the lake is sparkling, and although there are few flowers here, the breeze blowing gently caresses the face, and the itching feeling is also good.
In the emerald green water, red koi fish swim in groups, which is also beautiful and tight.
"Why don't you go to enjoy the flowers?" Seeing that only her own mother was sitting here alone, Aster couldn't help but feel distressed in her heart.
Song Nianan opened his eyes, and his eyes were cool, "There are too many people, but it destroys the scenery of the flowers, so it's better to see the lake come quickly." You can go with me. ”
Pulling the aster, the master and servant cried against the surface of the lake and went east.
The lake is a circle, about half an hour to go around a circle, Song Nianan looked left and right, a stone table under the shade of a shady tree attracted her attention, sitting over just to see the ladies on the opposite side enjoying the flowers.
Great place.
In the crowd, the figure of Chi Yu'er, the princess of the Dingguo Mansion, and the figure of the crown princess Li Changfu were very easy to find, and they were looking at Li Changfu, but she also looked over and waved at her.
The people are already coming this way.
Song Nianan ignored Li Changfu and looked at Chi Yu'er who was playing in the water on the side.
She didn't seem to want to enjoy the flowers, squatting alone by the lake, holding a wicker in her hand, boredly playing with the lake.
