Chapter 103: Hands-on
The post of King Yue Jun is the same as the invitation of the princes, he can bring a few people, even if he brings a dozen or twenty, no one dares not to give in, he also sent a post a few years ago, and King Yuejun's post was sent out and never came back, but he came back this year, but it was not himself, he could get the invitation from King Yuejun, he was by no means an ordinary person, and he asked busily, "I don't know how many are?" ”
Hearing Qin Zhizhang say that it was the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, the chief manager glanced at Qin Zhizhang more, and the little guy beside him said, "Manager Ye, the four girls from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion are here." ”
Qin Zhizhang turned around and saw Zhiwan, Chief Manager Ye hurriedly stepped down, saluted and said, "The fourth girl is here, the county lord has already sent someone to urge several times, I am afraid that there is something urgent to find you, please enter the mansion first." ”
Qin Zhiyu is a concubine, walking in the front, Manager Ye ignored her and walked directly to the back to talk to Zhiwan, Qin Zhiyu's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, gritted her teeth and pulled off the embroidered handkerchief, seeing that there were many young masters on the side, she hurriedly changed her gentle smiling face.
There are a lot of men standing around, as well as all the ladies, their eyes are looking at Zhiwan, they have all heard about Zhiwan more or less, but it is the first time to see Zhiwan, marveling at Zhiwan's appearance, and even more amazed at her means, she can actually catch the lord of Jining as a concubine, and she can also make the hibiscus banquet change from day to night with her own strength, and even let Princess Liuhua make an exception to send more than a dozen invitations to her.
Zhiwan smiled softly, apologized for being late, and then followed the maid into the house.
The flowers in the princess's mansion are more precious than those seen before, listening to the maid's introduction, Princess Liuhua complained in front of the emperor that there were fewer flowers to watch, and the emperor rewarded her with a hundred pots, or let Princess Liuhua go to the imperial garden to pick it herself, so that everyone listened to the staggering, and was more cautious and cautious.
I just entered the second gate, and from a distance, I saw the county lord of Jining coming over. To be precise, he came at a trot, and when he saw a group of ladies, he smiled at first, and then pulled Zhiwan away. Xiu'er hurriedly apologized, "The county lord is not willing to treat you slowly, but is in a hurry to find the fourth girl to discuss the matter at the banquet, please forgive me." ”
After speaking, he then ran with his skirt to chase after the county lord of Ji Ning.
When they arrived in a sparsely populated place, the county lord of Jining pulled Zhiwan and said with an excited expression, "I can speak, I can really speak!" ”
Although the voice was a little shaky, a little hoarse. It's a little unnatural, but it does make a sound, and Zhiwan is also happy for her, Xiu'er smiled, "Except that the slave overheard the county lord talking." The fourth girl was the first to let the county lord speak, and even the princess didn't know that the county lord's voice was good. ”
Zhiwan glanced at Xiu'er, "Nonsense, what the county lord wants to tell the most in his heart is naturally the princess, and he couldn't bear to tell her, but the county lord wants to surprise the princess." ”
Xiu'er stuck out her tongue lightly, very playful. In the future, when the county lord can speak, she will be relaxed, thinking that the county lord's voice is just right at this time, and she can't talk more, so she said, "The county lord has tried a few times." I really don't dare to walk the lotus alone, can I invite the four girls together? ”
Zhiwan was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and the county lord of Jining pulled Zhiwan with a pair of watery pupils with a request. Let Zhiwan be very embarrassed, "I can't accompany the county lord, the original design was the county lord alone, and I will destroy the beauty if I go." ”
The county lord of Ji Ning shook his head again and again, it would not destroy the beauty, Xiu'er scratched her forehead and said, "The princess thinks that only one lotus platform is too monotonous, so she built two of them, named them and ...... them." ”
Xiu'er felt that it was inappropriate to change the design of the four girls without authorization, but the princess didn't like the monotonous lotus, and they couldn't help it, so there would be a long way to go together.
The two discussed for a while, and the county lord of Jining had a lot of things to say to Zhiwan, although Zhiwan said it in detail, she was afraid that it would not be so good.
As she was talking, Xiu'er gently tugged at the sleeve of the county lord of Jining and said, "The big girl is here." ”
The lord of Ji Ning glanced at his head, and saw a girl dressed in a cherry red embroidered folded branch flower skirt coming over, with light steps, combing towards the moon, and a ruby rhododendron hairpin hanging down the bead pendant on the sideburns.
The voice of the voice is also clear and moving, but the words spoken are not very good, the eyes glanced at Zhiwan with a little contempt, and said with a smile, "I will ask you to go back to the Gongfu to enjoy the flowers, but you are happy to play with a concubine, and even change the hibiscus banquet to the evening for her?" ”
The county lord of Ji Ning had a thin anger on his face, and his face was full of unwelcome, Jiang Wanxian was stunned, "My father brought me here, it's useless if you don't welcome it, I heard the maid say that you want to dance "Peony"?" Coincidentally, I'm also planning to jump peonies. ”
The county lord of Jining blushed angrily, took Zhiwan's hand and held it tightly, a little scratched her, Zhiwan held the hand of the county lord of Jining, and smiled at her, the county lord of Jining glanced at Xiu'er, and Xiu'er said, "That's right, the county lord is indeed dancing the peony dance, last year the county lord was careless, lost to you, and this year will not be!" ”
"Really?" Jiang Wanxian raised her eyebrows and smiled, with a sarcasm in it, "Then I'll wait and see!" ”
The county lord of Jining didn't want to pay attention to her, so he pulled Zhiwan and left, and after only two steps, Xiu'er complained, "Let the slave know who leaked the secret, and see if the slave doesn't tear her mouth!" ”
Poria burst out laughing, "It's good to dance the same way, let her know what it means to get an axe." ”
Xiu'er nodded again and again, there are four girls here, she can compare to the county lord, unless the sun comes out in the west!
The county lord of Jining took Zhiwan to the main house, there were ten ladies in the house, six princesses, four duchesses, ten people, Zhiwan knew one, Duchess Liguo.
Seeing Zhiwan, the ten ladies had different expressions, they were all smart people, knowing that Princess Liuhua valued her, and the county lord of Jining was friendly with her, showing a contemptuous attitude at this time, Princess Liuhua would not like it.
Princess Liuhua is the first time to see her daughter pull someone to see her, these days, she obviously feels her daughter's growth, become confident, eyebrows flying dancing she looks at her are amazed, and her heart is even more fond of Zhiwan.
Princess Liuhua toasted several ladies with tea instead of wine, and apologized for the hibiscus banquet, now there is sunset on the horizon, and everyone who eats early has dinner at this time, but now she is in the princess's mansion, Duchess Liguo said with a smile, "It is not easy to hold a banquet at night, and the princess has a ruddy complexion." Full of joy, it can be seen that he is full of confidence in the banquet, and what kind of fireworks, I heard that the fourth girl, the king of Tuoyue County, sent them from thousands of miles away. I wish it was getting dark right now. ”
Princess Liuhua shook her head and chuckled, "I haven't seen it either, I wanted to let it go first, but Ji Ning didn't allow it, and I also looked forward to getting dark." ”
Zhiwan heard it thousands of miles away, and quickly whipped his horse, and several thick black lines slid down his forehead.
In the house, many ladies came to greet Princess Liuhua, and after about two cups of tea, the maid came to report. "Princess, it's not too early, is it time to start the banquet?"
Princess Liuhua nodded and said with a smile, "In the past, we used to have banquets in the house. Today we will go to the garden for a feast. ”
Princess Liuhua led the way, and a group of people walked towards the garden, and saw the garden from a distance being stopped by the maid, and outsiders were not allowed to trespass.
In the middle of the garden is a table more than ten meters long and two meters wide. With a long table as the center, there are more than a dozen tables on both sides, all of which are covered with silk and flowers, which is beautiful.
On both sides of the regular table, there is a very strange thing stacked on top of each other. It was like a cup, but it was different from what they had seen before, it was very beautiful, especially the dozen or so blue and white porcelains stacked together, and there were maids carrying large porcelain jars to pour wine from the top cup. Just pour it until all the cups are full.
Over there, more than twenty maids and twenty servants approached with trays, filling the long table, and the garden was suddenly filled with the fragrance of food.
Princess Rui looked at Princess Liuhua in surprise, "This decoration is novel, and this dish is also wonderful, but I don't understand it very well." ”
Princess Liuhua smiled clearly, "Actually, it's the first time I've experienced it, there are plates over there, you can choose what dishes you like to eat, there are porridge and pastries over there, and all kinds of fruit wine, even ice cubes are prepared, you can put them in the fruit wine." ”
Afraid that they would not understand, Princess Liuhua sat down, picked up the red menu on the table, swept it at a glance, and began to read the name, and the maid wrote it down on the side, and then went to serve the dishes, and soon there were four or five more dishes on the table.
Princess Liuhua smiled, "I don't know what you like to eat, so I let the kitchen cook more than forty dishes, and this list is all written, what do you want to eat, just let the maid take it, or go yourself." ”
Princess Rui picked up the menu, looked at it twice, and showed surprise, and found that there were forty-four kinds of dishes, ten kinds of porridge, more than twenty types of pastries, and six kinds of fruit wine, even four kinds of rice, and appetizing sour plums, so complete that even in the house, it may not be possible to eat more comfortable than the banquet.
Princess Rui picked six kinds of dishes, including a hot pot, she wanted to see how a hot pot was prepared for one person, so she asked for a small bowl of porridge, a cup of juice, and ice cubes.
The dishes were brought up one after another, and the dishes did not even take a third of the time for the incense, and when the dishes were ready, the maid lit the candles on the table, and this candlestick also had a unique one, the middle one was extraordinarily large, and the four around it were smaller.
These princesses and wives are one person at a table, and the ladies are two people at a table, and there is only one menu, but the table is larger and can order as many as ten dishes.
Zhiwan and the county lord of Jining had a table, and they also ordered the dishes, and then they took a pair of chopsticks, and were about to eat into their mouths, when a male duck came from the voice of a male duck over there, "The emperor has arrived!" ”
Before the words fell, Zhiwan heard a lot of coughing sounds, obviously startled by this sound, everyone put down their chopsticks, and hurriedly knelt down to salute, their heads bowed, and Zhiwan only saw a pair of bright yellow dragon robes passing by.
Princess Liuhua greeted her and asked, "Why did the emperor leave the palace?" ”
Emperor Wen Yuan looked around and said with a smile, "It seems that I came early?" ”
Princess Liuhua replied with a smile, "Today's hibiscus banquet starts with dinner, how much did the imperial brother eat in the evening, do you want to eat more?" ”
The father-in-law on the side was busy saying, "The emperor has a bad appetite in the evening, so he only used a bowl of porridge." ”
The little maid over there had already moved the emperor's table and chairs in time, and there were all the people who accompanied the prince, but the princesses did not come.
When Emperor Wenyuan sat down and saw the menu, he was very surprised, "The imperial sister has a wonderful idea, and after returning to the palace, I will also let the imperial dining room do the same." ”
Princess Liuhua smiled modestly, she didn't say that she had an idea, it was a good thing to show her face in front of the emperor, but it was not a good thing to provoke the jealousy of everyone's ladies.
Emperor Wenyuan saw that there were many kinds of wine, so let people have a cup of the same. Princess Liuhua was busy persuading him to drink too much, and Emperor Wenyuan waved his hand, "It's rare that the king of Yuejun didn't come to get angry, so don't spoil my interest...... ”
Emperor Wen Yuan was talking. Suddenly, a loud sneeze came from a distance, "Who is scolding you?!" ”
Emperor Wen Yuan's face darkened at that time, the father-in-law standing on the side shrunk his neck, Princess Liuhua raised his forehead, why was it so unfortunate, she thought that the king of Yuejun would not come, didn't he just come halfway last year and left, why did he come so early today?
Ye Guiyue finished scolding, and stepped forward to salute Emperor Wenyuan, who had a black face. "If you make trouble today, I will deduct two gold medals from your death!"
Ye Guiyue rolled his eyes, "I came in from the main gate to pick the princess of the county!" ”
Emperor Wenyuan glanced at Ye Guiyue, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "You pick the princess of the county?" I'm talking ahead. If you still leave your family for no reason this time, I will take back all your death-free gold medals. ”
After Emperor Wenyuan finished speaking, he still felt that it was not enough, and looked at Princess Liuhua and said, "Why didn't the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion come today, call her out, and scare this kid away, lest he harm others." ”
I was thirsty. Drinking the juice, when he heard Emperor Wen Yuan's words, he coughed suddenly, Zhiwan put down the wine glass, stood up speechlessly, and moved to Ye Guiyue's side in small steps. glared at him fiercely, and then saluted Emperor Wenyuan, "The courtiers ask the emperor for peace, long live the emperor." ”
Emperor Wen Yuan put down the wine glass and said with a smile. "Lift your head up and show me."
Zhiwan had to raise his head, Emperor Wen Yuan looked at it carefully, he had heard that she was weak and delicate, sure enough, such a girl had the courage to run away from marriage for a year, and also scared away the king of Yuejun, it was really impressive, Emperor Wen Yuan still didn't believe it, "It's rare that someone can shock him, if you can really scare him away, I will make you a princess." ”
As soon as Emperor Wenyuan's words came out, the courtyard went up to the king of Yuejun, down to the maids, all looked at Emperor Wenyuan, felt that he had heard it wrong, and looked at Zhiwan again, as long as he scared away the king of Yuejun, she could be crowned a princess, would she scare away the king of Yuejun?
Zhiwan's eyes widened, she had already heard that the emperor was angry and the king's teeth were itchy, but she didn't have to say this in front of so many people, right, and promised the princess? I have to say that Zhiwan was moved.
But how is she going to scare him? Can't be scared, okay!
Princess Liuhua smiled helplessly, "Your Majesty, Brother Huang, don't entertain the royal sister, okay, if you really anger the King of Yuejun, how can the royal sister's hibiscus banquet continue?" ”
Emperor Wen Yuan laughed, "I am a golden mouth, I will do what I say, but I am not joking with the imperial sister, I also want to see her ability." ”
Princess Liuhua stroked her forehead, just fight in the palace, and ran to her house to choke, even if it was difficult for her, it was difficult for her to know that it was late, even her plea would not work, if it weren't for Zhiwan who had promised to be married to the king of Yuejun, she really doubted that the emperor wanted to take Zhiwan into the palace and drill the door to Keyue Junwang, Princess Liuhua glanced at Zhiwan.
Ye Guiyue stood there and didn't speak, he wanted to see if she would obediently scare him, and what kind of method would he use to scare her?
Rong Jingxuan sat not far away, staring at Zhiwan without blinking, he was not mistaken, the first village girl turned out to be the fourth girl of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion?!
Rong Jingxuan's mind flashed and thundered, before Zhiwan asked someone to send him a note, he suspected that Zhiwan's return to Beijing to marry someone was a lie, but he didn't expect it to be true, she really got married on the same day as King Yuejun, how many sedan chairs did King Yuejun lift for her, how many brides' hijabs she saw, but she didn't expect that the person she was going to marry was King Yuejun, and she was still vulgar and nymphomaniac on the street and shouted Yuejun Wang's husband, and scared him away, it turned out to be her!
Chu Pei stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Rong Jingxuan's eyes, "You look so fascinated, you can't take a fancy to her, right?" ”
Rong Jingxuan's eyes darkened, he was indeed moved, and even thought that if the king of Yuejun let her go, he would marry her, but she had no news, and now that she knows her, she is the fourth girl of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion...... even helped her buy what fireworks, what kind of person did King Yuejun, if it wasn't for his willingness, even if the holy decree asked him to help, he wouldn't care, when King Yuejun quit the marriage, he didn't know that the person he was looking for was the person he wanted to marry, and after he found out, he would sabotage her marriage several times, right?
Zhiwan over there twisted the handkerchief, glanced at Ye Guiyue sideways, and found that his face had not changed, but looked at her, and even had a smile in his eyes, "You can call me husband again." ”
Zhiwan's ears are slightly red, and a fool will call him husband in public, when he was scary, it was different from the current situation, okay, at that time, there was a marriage contract, and he was just bolder when he shouted, and now he is completely shameless to shout, even if he is scaring him on the emperor's orders, besides, knowing that he is not afraid of her, she still bumps up, is she stupid?
But if you don't try it, you can't say no, the emperor can't explain it, it will be considered perfunctory, if you don't get it right, it's the holy anger, the matter of losing your head, Zhiwan made a bitter face, I don't know what to do, suddenly, a crisp voice came from there, "Fourth sister, didn't you still say that if you want to make a splash at the hibiscus banquet last afternoon, the fastest and best way is to punch King Yuejun and knock him unconscious, and you can still get the emperor's reward, why don't you do it?" ”
