Chapter Forty-Eight: Opening Your Eyes and Telling Nonsense
There was silence on the spring viewing platform.
The twins wanted to block Shen Qiutan's mouth, but it was too late, so they could only stare at her viciously; Shen Qiutong wanted to help, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know how to refute.
The ninth sister has a temper, she is so horizontal at home, and she doesn't know how to restrain herself when she goes out, how can she offend the girl of Lord Liu's family. She also secretly blamed Shen Qiutan for not being low, and offending people when she opened her mouth.
Just when Liu Wanyan was secretly proud, Shen Qiutong was silently anxious, and when most people were waiting to see the joke, Shen Qiutan said ignorantly: "Oh, Sister Liu doesn't say it, I don't know, it turns out that walking is such a difficult thing......"
"What do you mean?"
Shen Qiutan looked at Liu Wanyan with some distress: "Presumably, Sister Liu must have experienced such a thing to be able to say it so clearly." Sister, you're suffering! ”
What have I suffered? How did I suffer? Liu Wanyan didn't expect Shen Qiutan to be beaten upside down, her face was red and white, thinking that she had been in the circle of nobles in the capital for fifteen years, how could she be so wronged, she tried to take a few deep breaths before holding back her anger, and said as usual: "My sister thinks too much, I just speculate with common sense, is it possible that my sister has been very smooth all the way?" ”
How can it be? Although they are all boudoir women, they are not ignorant of things.
Jiang Nuo was about to pull Liu Wanyan's sleeve, hoping that Sister Liu would not be aggressive, but Liu Wanyan was not someone who could pull it if she wanted to, and the others had different thoughts.
Shen Qiutan nodded with a smile, although she was tall, she didn't look old, her eyes were bright and clear, she looked more like an ignorant child, and she had not yet entered the girlhood stage, she smiled: "Yes, I walked very easily." ”
"How can this be? You are an orphan girl who has traveled thousands of miles, and you haven't encountered a little wind and waves on the road? "She is inducing, such as robbery, robbery......
Shen Qiutan shook his head.
Liu Wanyan suddenly felt a pity, and accidentally showed her face.
"Don't hide it from my sister, although my father and mother died, but my brother and I were fortunate to be rescued by the nobles to save a life, the nobles respected my father's loyalty, and thanked me and my brother for being young, so they sent people to escort us all the way to Beijing. The carriage was soft and comfortable, and it wasn't very difficult to handle. Shen Qiutan looked sincere: "I didn't think anything about it, I thought that the noble man just sent us home by the way, and only then did I listen to my sister's words, until the meaning of this escort." ”
Shen Qiutan bowed slightly, opened his eyes and said nonsense, his face did not change, and he said very gratefully: "Thank you so much Sister Liu!" ”
Liu Wan nodded wordlessly, what else could she say?
"Oh? I don't know which noble person rescued me? ”
It turned out that at some point, Gao Ji came back with the eldest princess of Longqing. This time, there were no maids like clouds, and naturally they were not discovered by the girls in time.
Shen Qiutan's waist was low.
"What, can't you say?" The tone is not very good.
Shen Qiutan knew that the Xiao family pearl had already made the eldest princess of Longqing unhappy, and if he talked about her left and right, he would definitely annoy the eldest princess of Longqing; But if you say it yourself, your mind is circling, and the only thing you can say is Xiao Yang.
It seems that no matter what, the Xiao family will be involved, and it will anger the eldest princess.
Shen Qiutan pondered how to speak......
"His Royal Highness King Lu has arrived!"
The women couldn't dodge, so they could only continue to salute, and Shen Qiutan followed and bowed, but he was relieved in his heart.
"Auntie!" Before long, I saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy running in vermilion brocade and striding over.
"Xiao Qi is here!" The eldest princess of Longqing softened her tone.
The sixth prince and the seventh prince are still young, and they should not be crowned kings too early, but last year King Han rebelled, the prince died, and the emperor suddenly felt empty under his knees, so he gave the two young princes the title of king in advance, but there was no fief, there was an empty title, and he still lived in the capital.
This is something that ordinary people know, but the nobles present know that although they are crowned kings at the same time, the biological mother of the six princes died early, and they are frail and sickly, and they have never been favored by the emperor.
I can't make my younger brother a king, my brother is just a prince.
The seventh prince is fourteen years old this year, three months younger than the sixth prince who was crowned King of Qi, but this treatment is very different.
The biological mother of the six princes is the daughter of the late Zhou Xuan, the governor of Beichuan Mansion, Zhou Xuan died ten years ago, and Concubine Zhou also died, and the six princes were already weak and have never been favored by the outside world.
The Seven Princes are different, in terms of their mother's background, the biological mother of the Seven Princes, He, is actually not as good as Zhou's. He is just a-clothed maid, but it is such a-clothed maid, and in the end, the mother relied on her son to give birth to the seventh prince Li Jue, and became a concubine, I heard that the emperor was also ready to give the concubine to the imperial concubine again.
Standing behind the concubine He is Qiu Yuanzhen, the inner attendant, Qiu Yuanzhen is an old man who has followed the current emperor since he dived, and is deeply favored by the emperor, even the current queen mother is just maintaining a situation where well water does not interfere with river water.
In this way, the eldest princess of Longqing was naturally very polite to King Lu.
"You kid, why did you run to the place of the female dependents, don't frighten the little ladies I finally invited." The eldest princess of Longqing is the youngest daughter of the first emperor, and now she is only in her twenties, but this aunt's pedigree still has to be placed.
King Lu did not inherit his mother's beauty, but a little like the current emperor, born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, white and round face, looking a good temper, he smiled and said: "It's my aunt's garden is too big, and the scenery is too good all the way, so Xiao Qi got lost." ”
These words sounded comfortable, and with these words, the eldest princess of Longqing was ridiculed by Xiao Zhao just now, and it finally passed.
She smiled and took King Lu's hand: "You came just in time, the spring festival is about to start, you come with me to see which young man and which girl can win this year's first place." ”
When the girls heard this, they were all shy and timid.
This is the most charming and popular place of the spring feast.
Those who can be invited to participate in the spring banquet, regardless of men and women, are the best among the young men and girls in the capital.
In other places, if there is someone secretly interacting with whom, it is called private teaching, and it is discredited if it is not good, but at the spring banquet, there is a subtle distance between men and women, and they try their talents.
The young Mu Ai, the young girl is pregnant with spring, this spring feast, in addition to ordinary flowers and trees, more people are still appreciated.
The girls followed the eldest princess of Longqing slowly, the girls were eager to try, and Shen Qiutan was also thinking about it.
Both men and women at the spring banquet have competition items, the eldest princess of Longqing has a rich net worth, no matter what the project, as long as she gets the top three rankings, the rewards are very heavy, do you want to make some money?
The mother's dowry will not be able to get back for a while, but raising children requires a lot of expenses, and it also takes a lot of money to study and practice martial arts by yourself, and you also need to learn how to make incense...... Everything costs money, Uncle Qiao said that he doesn't have to take care of himself, but he is not a real child, so he can not care about anything.
Soon, the girls followed the eldest princess of Longqing to their destination.
