Chapter 37: Flower Viewing Banquet
knew that Luo Qingluan was so stunning, how could Nangong Chen be willing to withdraw from the marriage?
When he came back that night, Nangong Chen asked Luo Qingshuang what was going on with Luo Qingluan's appearance, and the two had a big quarrel about it. Now goodbye Luo Qingluan, where does Nangong Chen care about Luo Qingshuang, even his mother-in-law has been put aside.
Quickening his pace and stepping forward, Nangong Chen stood outside the pavilion and said to Luo Qingluan with a smile on his face: "Sister Qingluan, when did you come?" I don't know, it's really snubbing, don't be surprised. β
Luo Qingluan felt disgusted when he saw his smiling face, and said lightly: "I came with my aunt, didn't my brother-in-law accompany the guests in front, why did you come here?" β
Luo Cheng also walked over, and said with a straight face: "Qingluan, did you talk to the five princes like this?" Still not polite? β
Nangong Chen immediately said: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way, it's all a family, it's good to talk casually, it's okay." β
Glancing at him coldly, Luo Qingluan didn't even want to answer, and turned his head.
touched a nail, but Nangong Chen was not angry at all, but regretted his previous 'blindness', his eyes were in Luo Qingshuang's eyes, so he was angry and didn't get angry on the spot, twisted his waist and walked up.
"Sister, now Chen is no longer your fiancΓ©, don't look at him with such eyes, he is my husband!"
"It's just right, Sister Lao is optimistic about your man, don't let him come to talk to me." Luo Qingluan replied coldly.
Where did Luo Qingshuang say Luo Qingluan? As soon as his face changed, he shouted at Nangong Chen: "Chen, you are married to me now, what, do you know that your sister is beautiful, and you like her again?" You came back that day and had a fight with me......"
"Enough!"
was stared at by everyone, and Luo Cheng and Wang Xueru were present, where did Nangong Chen want to argue with Luo Qingshuang, and scolded with a straight face: "What kind of trouble, I just said a few words to the second sister, is this not okay?" Watch out for your own stomach and don't go back to rest. β
"Chen ......" was scolded in public, where could Luo Qingshuang, who has always been pampered, stand it? I'm going to cry.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, I'm sorry, Qingshuang is pregnant, and her temperament is a little impatient."
Nangong Chen didn't want to go too far after all, so he had to restrain his temper and said kindly: "Okay, with so many guests, it's not good to make trouble." If you are in a hurry, go back to the backyard and rest, and it will be time to eat later. β
Seeing that Nangong Chen gave him the stairs, Luo Qingshuang didn't want to mess with him, so she only glared at Luo Qingluan fiercely, and let the girl support her and follow Wang Xueru away.
In the end, Luo Qingluan ended up alone, and even Luo Cheng didn't pay attention to her, but fortunately, she was accompanied by Dai Yue, and she didn't mind. No one bothered her, just clean.
After returning from the Five Princes' Mansion, for most of the month, Luo Qingluan basically stayed in the small courtyard and did not go out. Occasionally, after writing the book, I also asked Dai Yue to take it to Boss Li, as for Mengxian Lou...... Now the business is booming, the daily income is ten thousand gold, the limelight has spread throughout the capital, even some businessmen from Dongwan and Nanyue are also nostalgic for Mengxian Lou and reluctant to leave.
The three girls of Hongyu, Ruyan, and Shimeng have truly become the masters of Mengxian Building, and there is an endless stream of guests who want to see them. Luo Qingluan also smiled secretly, but fortunately, Nangong Yu also listened to her words, and in a mysterious, shelf-bearing, and proud posture, she almost shaped the three goddesses.
Men are really cheap......
Luo Qingluan chuckled and shook his head, taking his thoughts back.
There was a guzheng in front of her, her fingers caressed, hooked the strings, and the melodious sound of the piano echoed in the small courtyard like flowing water. It's not that she suddenly likes to play the piano, but it's something she was good at in her previous life, and she doesn't want to forget it, so she plays it when she has time and practices.
Speaking of her master and ghost doctor in her previous life, she was a real genius-like figure. I am personable, over fifty years old and still full of the mature charm of a man, and I am as well maintained as a man in his thirties. Not only is his medical skills superb, but he is also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, astronomy and geography.
As the only descendant of the ghost doctor, Luo Qingluan was naturally taught by him since he was a child, and he was already very talented, and after studying for more than ten years, he also got seventy or eighty percent of his master's ability. It's a pity......
The sound of the piano gradually stopped, Luo Qingluan stopped, and took a bamboo flute prepared by Dai Yue and blew it, the sound of the flute was clear and melodious, flying out of her lips, straight into the sky, attracting a few small birds to fly down on the courtyard wall, chirping in response.
After finishing the song, Luo Qingluan finally stopped, and Dai Yue greeted her with surprise on her face. Although she had heard a lot of skills from the young lady during this time, she was more surprised every time, which made her unbelievable.
The young lady has also learned these things before, but how can she be so powerful now?
Could it be that the previous ladies are hiding and don't want people to know?
"Miss, the lord always says that girls should practice these more, they must be good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and female red knitting, so that they can find a good in-law in the future. If the old man knew that you were so powerful now, he would be very happy. Dai Yue said happily.
Hmph, she's not happy in Los Angeles?
Luo Qingluan smiled faintly: "I don't practice these to please anyone, whether it is painting and writing, or playing the piano and flute, I can cultivate a person's temperament." Don't you think it's much better to listen to it once in a while? β
Dai Yue didn't understand, she only knew that Miss played the piano very well, so she immediately nodded: "Well, yes, yes, Miss, Miss is amazing, I will listen to Miss ......play every day in the future."
Suddenly, she thought of something, paused, and suddenly realized: "Ah, I know, Miss has been playing the piano and painting every day recently, do you want to marry His Royal Highness the Prince?" β
"Nonsense, look at what you say." Luo Qingluan sneered.
Although she hasn't gone out much since she came back from the Five Princes' Mansion last time, Xueru, the king of Los Angeles in the province, comes to trouble her every day, and she is annoyed to death. However, Daiyue occasionally goes out, and she still knows the news that is circulating outside.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Nangong Qing has reached the age of marriage, and the current queen is preparing to organize a flower-viewing banquet, and it is estimated that it will not be long before she invites those ladies and ladies to the back garden of the palace. Of course, this is just a banquet in disguise to select the future crown princess.
Nangong Qing's biological mother is not the current queen's mother, but the deceased Queen Yao, but the current queen Wang is his cousin, that is, Queen Yao's cousin, who also cares about him and asks for warmth. For Nangong Qing's marriage, she naturally has to show more care.
Luo Qingluan didn't say that she hadn't seen Nangong Qing, even if she did, she wouldn't like it casually. Moreover, Nangong Qingnai is the crown prince, the future emperor of the Western Chu Kingdom, must be three palaces and six courts, and there are many concubines, how could she marry such a man?
"The news of the queen's mother's selection of a concubine for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already spread, but do you think my aunt will let me enter the palace to fight for such an opportunity?" Luo Qingluan didn't say what she was thinking, but analyzed the superficial phenomenon for Dai Yue: "My sister is so easy to marry the fifth prince, if I really go to the flower viewing banquet, isn't my aunt afraid that I will really be taken by the queen and become the crown princess?" Wouldn't that be stepping on my sister's head? β
"Oh, that's what Miss said."
Dai Yue's voice lowered, and she pouted and said, "Mrs. Fang hates Miss so much, she will definitely not let Miss go." β
According to Luo Qingluan's thoughts, this matter was only afraid to pass, but she never expected that because someone said a few words in front of the emperor, it was not her turn to go to the banquet, but every two days, Luo Cheng received a decree from the queen's mother.
Wang Xueru was almost angry to death, looking at the bright yellow Yizhi in her hand, she wanted to tear it, but she didn't dare. He could only twist his face and said strangely: "Master, what do you say about this, Your Majesty has already revoked the marriage contract between Qingluan and the Fifth Prince, and now the queen has personally decreed that she will participate in the flower viewing party." Don't...... Does the mother have the heart to let Qingluan be the crown princess? β
If that's the case, she's going to be angry!
Her daughter is barely a concubine of the fifth prince, Luo Qingluan, a stinky girl, was actually taken by the queen's mother? When did she fall into the eyes of the queen?
Luo Cheng couldn't figure it out, but Luo Qingluan was originally divorced by Nangong Chen, and he didn't feel comfortable in his heart, after all, it was an ugly thing in the General's Mansion. Now if the real queen has a crush on Luo Qingluan, it is a good thing, she can climb the crown prince, and his Luo family will go further and become a real royal relative.
He thought more, if Luo Qingluan gave birth to His Royal Highness in the future, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince became the emperor, wouldn't he become the ruler of the country? This is the supreme glory!
Thinking of this, he smiled rarely: "That's good, you can take Qingluan with you in a few days, remember to remind her of etiquette, don't lose face in front of the queen, and take advantage of the opportunity." β
Wang Xueru hated when she heard this, and her fingers twisted one by one, but she couldn't go against Luocheng's will, let alone disobey Yi's will, on the day of the flower viewing party, she finally took Luo Qingluan into the palace for a banquet.
"Qingluan, you can go to the harem today, and the queen mother is also there, you must not talk at will like last time, do you hear it?"
The voice was extremely serious, with a hint of fake concern: "Have you remembered what my aunt just told you to pay attention to etiquette?" But you must not make a mistake, otherwise you will be killed. β
Who didn't know that Wang Xueru wanted to deliberately scare her and let her enter the palace to restrain her hands and feet, but to make a fool of herself? However, Luo Qingluan was not interested in today's flower-viewing banquet, if she hadn't come to Yizhi, she would rather go to Mengxian Tower to play.
Got on the carriage and arrived in front of the palace gate, Luo Qingluan and Wang Xueru were led by the palace maids, along the way the flowers were full of flowers, purple and red, endless pavilions and pavilions, golden and brilliant, but quiet and solemn, like a quiet and atmospheric Chinese painting.
Along the white jade carved fence and the murmuring lake, Luo Qingluan finally entered the harem, which was the place of this flower-viewing banquet - Wanchun Garden.
It's just that Luo Qingluan didn't expect that as soon as she came, she saw Luo Qingshuang, who was already married, talking and laughing with another woman. As soon as the two turned their heads, they had already seen her, but they were stunned, Luo Qingshuang had a smile on her lips and had already walked towards her.
