Yi'er thinks about it, this little girl is guarding outside, who doesn't know that the master is in the house? Li saw that the three of them had not turned around for a long time, and they were anxious to let the maid go out to find someone, and when they saw that Yi'er was fine, they couldn't help but complain twice, Yi'er took Li's arm, chuckled and nodded to admit his mistake, in fact, where was Li really willing to train her, seeing that she was well-behaved, she could only be quite helpless, and nodded her forehead a little doting.

The main banquet at noon is placed in the perfume pavilion, this perfume pavilion is located on the blue lotus pond on the shore of Huansha Lake, below is the Juanjuan pond water, all around is red and white, the delicate lotus lotus, the breeze blows, the fragrance is fragrant, it makes people feel refreshed and happy, lingering, to really deserve the word "lingering fragrance".

What's even better is that this perfume pavilion is divided into two pavilions, the middle is connected by a beautiful covered bridge around the pond, the female relatives enter the west pavilion, and the male guests are led to the east pavilion, the east pavilion and the west pavilion look at each other across the pool, there is a special interest.

Although the Ningguo Mansion is extremely rich, but in fact, there are not many people who come to the door to congratulate him, on the one hand, the lintel of the Ningguo Mansion is naturally too high, and the ordinary nobles can't get into the eyes of others at all, and the more important point is that the prince is tired of this kind of entertainment, since he is sensible, what wine has he ever set up for his birthday, what banquet has he set up? It was the Ningguo Mansion that posted an invitation to the banquet this time, which made many people fall into their glasses, and it was unexpected.

Of course, everyone who has been idle before basically understands the purpose behind this banquet in the Ningguo Mansion, but he understands it, but the prince who has always been cold-hearted and cold-hearted, and the legend is that he has only a male style, is now actually moved, and everyone can't help but wonder in their hearts that this prince is really enlightened and has a heart for the young lady? Or is it just about to marry a furnishing and come back to block the world's mouths.

However, in any case, the number of people invited to this banquet in the Ningguo Mansion was not large, and there were only three tables on one side of the east and west pavilions, and the perfume Xie was much larger than the ordinary water pavilion, so it was only when everyone entered the pavilion that they found that the space was open and comfortable, and there was no feeling of crampedness at all.

I didn't find it before, but now that I sat down, Yi'er felt that there seemed to be a little more people from their Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, almost all the ladies of the five rooms had arrived, and even the fifth lady Xu entered the table with a big belly, and the ladies and ladies of Beppu also looked at them with inquisitive and playful eyes.

Yi'er is a little embarrassed, naturally understands the hidden meaning behind these eyes, in fact, it is not surprising, with their status as the lintel of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, they can enter the list of banquets in the Ningguo Mansion, which is a great honor in itself, and the entire Qingxiang Marquis Mansion is on the heart, and the five rooms are present to congratulate the birthday to show their respect for the Guogong Mansion, and they dare not slack off, but now that they look at it, this kind of self-righteous respect in each room falls in the eyes of Mrs. Beppu, but it has become an out-and-out climbing flattery, wagging the tail and competing for favor.

Yi'er didn't mind this kind of gaze very much, she was just worried about Li, and from the moment she sat down, she took Li's hand and watched the changes on Li's face closely.

Li naturally understood Yi'er's thoughts, and in the face of the increasingly obvious ridicule around her, she felt uncomfortable, but seeing that Yi'er was so well-behaved and sensible, no matter how much the nest fire gradually dispersed, she patted Yi'er's hand and smiled lightly at Yi'er, and Yi'er immediately returned a bright smile.

Before the main ceremony began, someone hurriedly came in to report that the reward from the palace had come down.

The guests stayed in the water pavilion, Jiang Pei, the prince of Ningguo, led the lord of Huayang, and Jiang You and others set up an incense table outside the water pavilion to welcome the angels who came down from the palace.

It was a white-haired chamberlain who came, and Yi'er later heard about it and learned that this was the most useful eunuch around Emperor Qiming, the eunuch Liu Dao'an. Naturally, being able to work this Gonggong Liu personally went out of the palace to spread such a will is not only a dignity of the Ningguo Mansion, but also shows the importance that the emperor and queen attach to the Ningguo Mansion and the prince Jiang You.

There are so many things that Liu Dao'an has read for a long time, the emperor has finished reading, followed by the queen's reward, and when all the things are finished, Jiang Pei took the lead and thanked him, took a blue-chip bag from his subordinate and stuffed it into Liu Dao'an's hand, and said "hard work".

Liu Dao'an smiled all over his face and said: "When the Sprinkle family came, the emperor also said: General Huwei will be eighteen years old after today, and it is time to talk about a daughter-in-law. ”

After Liu Dao'an was sent away, the banquet officially opened.

On the Xixie side, at the main table in the middle, the lord of Huayang County pointed to the Hou of Qingxiang's mansion and the Hou Lady Wei as an accompaniment, and personally pulled Du Jinyao to sit beside her, and his intention could not be more obvious.

Yi'er originally just wanted to accompany the Li family quietly, but she didn't want Princess Mingwei to sit at the main table, so she had to run over and sit next to her, she came, and Dou Ran followed suit.

Princess Mingwei has a lively temperament, talks a lot, and chatters non-stop, but her identity is there, others dare not say anything, Yi'er likes her innocent and bright, but she has a headache to pull the topic on the topic of Xiangwang Yang Milling in a few words, fortunately, Dou Ran is smart, and people look quiet and quiet, but they can always pull the topic back to the banquet with one mouth.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the lady and lady at this banquet, the identity of any of them will never be lower than the people who came out of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, it is the eyes that many people saw at the beginning, more or less contemptuous and contemptuous, and later Du Jinyao entered the eyes of the county lord of Huayang, and everyone knew that this was the future princess of the Ningguo Mansion, so the eyes of Du Jinyao and even the Wei family changed, but it was only limited to the four rooms, and the look of contempt and contempt for the other rooms was still the same.

And now, Princess Mingwei is extremely enthusiastic about Yi'er, and she can't help but make everyone's thoughts turn a few times, and even insiders secretly revealed that the eldest prince of Yunping wants to accept Yi'er as his granddaughter, and everyone is quite surprised and shocked, and they are relatively enthusiastic about Yi'er and the Li family.

It's just that she is interested in the enthusiasm shown by Princess Mingwei, and Yi'er knows it, but she just wants to inquire about her and Yang Miao. She didn't naively think that if she met in a hurry like this, Princess Mingwei would like her so much!

Of course, in addition to Princess Kaimingwei, Yi'er also had some sensitive discoveries, and Princess Yuan Shi, who was sitting at the main table, also looked at her frequently, in this regard, she really had a headache, thinking that she was on the Shuilan Pavilion at that time, and happened to be seen by the Yuan family? But she thought about it carefully, at that time in the pavilion, she and Yang Mo just talked a few words casually, and there was nothing wrong with it.

In fact, Yuan's gaze was not pure hostility, the eyes were complicated, but it was precisely because of this complicated look that Yi'er felt like a thorn in her back.

Finally got off the table, after the tables, chairs and tableware were removed, the lord of Huayang County came to be interested, let people clean up the water pavilion, put on the rattan chair coffee table, and a few ladies and ladies ate tea and enjoyed the lotus in the water pavilion. Of course, those young ladies who are lively and can't sit still are not restrained, and there are tents in the courtyard, and the pavilions and pavilions everywhere are waiting for special people to wait for the ladies and ladies of each family to rest when they are tired of visiting the garden.

Yi'er doesn't like to listen to the play, she is quiet, and she walked around the yard in the morning, so she didn't want to go out for a walk, so she accompanied Li to eat tea and talk in the water pavilion, Li took her hand, patted it gently, and said: "You, you're young, it's just too quiet, we old women talk, what are you doing next to you?" Go, go to the theater, go to the yard, the little girl should look like a little girl. ”

Yi'er hugged Li's hand and sprinkled back, and finally got up in the laughter of several ladies, and was about to salute and go out, but saw an old woman come over, bowed to her, and said, "May I ask if it's Miss Du San of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion?" ”

Yi'er was stunned, of course she knew this grandmother, she had always stood behind the county lord of Huayang, waiting closely, and she didn't dare to slack off at the moment, so she hurriedly returned the salute and answered yes.

The grandmother said, "The county lord of my family wants to invite the third lady to come over and talk." ”

Leave perfume Xie occupies a large area, just on the Xixie side, there are three water pavilions, the Huayang county lord is the most near the center of the Bihe Pond, the innermost pavilion, and the Li family thinks about their identity, so they chose the pavilion on the edge to sit, and there is a water pavilion between the two pavilions, so that he didn't pay attention to what happened to the Huayang county lord, and asked Mama to come over and ask Yi'er to talk.

This grandmother's surname is Hu, she is a very powerful grandmother beside the county lord of Huayang, Yi'er followed her, entered the water pavilion, stepped forward to salute the lord of Huayang in a proper manner, and asked for peace, her eyes did not squint, she was neither humble nor arrogant, and she had a rare bearing of everyone's lady.

The county lord of Huayang immediately secretly appreciated it in his heart, shouted, and then said: "I heard that on the tenth day of the first month, in Qiaofu, you fell into the water, and in the end, it was your mother who saved you?" ”

Yi'er then made up her mind and said, "Thanks to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess that day, the little girl was able to save the day." ”

The county lord of Huayang said again: "I also heard that my mother and her old man like you very much and want to accept you as a goddaughter, but is there such a thing?" ”

Yi'er said: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is kind, and when she sees the little girl in distress, she naturally has pity in her heart, and at that time, it was just a joke in her old man's heart." The little girl has a low status, where does she deserve it? ”

The county lord of Huayang nodded, but before he could speak, Du Jinyao, who was sitting next to her, said with a smile: "The county lord doesn't know something, my third sister, but she is a hard-working person, she was abducted by the flower when she was one year old, and she was found by the uncle and aunt three years ago. It is estimated that she was both moved and happy to be rescued by Her Royal Highness the eldest princess that day, so she leaked her mouth for a while, so that now the trouble is known all over the city, which is also understandable. ”
