Chapter 307: Referee
Qin Huiniang's face flushed, she knew the purpose of coming today, but the Qin family didn't want to get involved with a noble son-in-law like Enyihou, after all, they had never been in the habit of marrying a noble general.
And Qin Huiniang's sisters think more simply, there is an example of a sister in front of her, if you find a good family or marry low, what is really the matter, the mother's family can also help to get ahead, if you marry Yun Chi, there is a sister who is the queen, who dares?
Neither of her two cousins had any intention of being Mrs. Enyihou, Li Jingyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but when she turned around, she met Zhou Yan's narrow gaze, she was afraid that this person would say nonsense again, so she glared at Zhou Yan fiercely, "Since you don't want to write poetry, accompany me and your sister Zhou to listen to her talk about the new things outside!" ”
"Sister Zhou, the young ladies you brought into the palace today, is it possible to ......" Qin Rongniang is young and straightforward, and she didn't hold back, so she asked, "I was watching over there just now, and Niangniang seems to like them a lot,"
"Don't talk nonsense," Qin Huiniang was older, and pulled her sister's clothes, "They can be carried to the palace by their sister, and they have the blue eyes of the mother, which is also their blessing, and they have nothing to do with us." ”
"Your two younger sisters have different temperaments," Zhou Yan pursed her lips and smiled, "I also know that my sister wants to be lively, so I dare to take them into the palace together, and there is no other meaning, just as Hui Niang said, Niang Niang likes to be crowded, and she is curious about things outside, so she looks at one or two." ”
The Qin sisters naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to believe Zhou Yan's words, but when she said this, Qin Rongniang knew no matter how ignorant she was, and the real reason behind her must not be asked at will, she looked at Li Jingyi with some regret, but saw her smile to herself, "With your sister Zhou's eyes, those young ladies are poor, and they must all be smart and clever, and if you really meet together, you may not have nothing to say." ”
This is indeed true, although Qin Weijia has been promoted to a waiter, but Qin Weiyi and Qin Weiding are both wandering around on the fourth or fifth grade, and Qin Huiniang's sisters have also dealt with the daughters of these people, speaking of which, there are also a lot of cute and respectable people, but after these few followed Zhou Yanjin to see the clouds, Qin Huiniang didn't believe that they really just came to see and appreciate the lotus.
Seeing that the two cousins were silent, Li Jingyi didn't say more, the four of them simply leaned on the sound of the piano floating over the lake, and after the song ended, Qin Huiniang stroked her palms and said, "This song is not bad, especially the sound of the flute, the artistic conception is far-reaching, so that people are fascinated, but I don't know which sister's handwriting?" ”
Qin Huiniang couldn't hear who was stroking the qin? Li Jingyi signaled, and after a while, a little eunuch came to report, saying that it was a young lady surnamed Han who followed Zhou Yan into the palace, and it was Miss Yu Meiren Yu who was in harmony with her.
I didn't expect that there were such masters among the people selected by Zhou Yan, and even Zhou Yan was a little surprised, "Miss Han is the daughter of Han Di, the head of the Household Treasure Banknote Division, I really didn't know she still had this hand," and she was still hiding it, Zhou Yan couldn't help sneering.
Li Jingyi patted Zhou Yan, she couldn't be clearer about this sister, although she didn't have bad intentions, she still liked that everything was under her control, "It's all carefully raised by parents, who doesn't ask her daughter for advice?" ”
"Besides, this piano is a flute, which one is gone, we may not be able to hear such a wonderful tune," Miss Han is nothing, but this Yu Meiren can't be underestimated, but Yun Chi, Li Jingyi is a little distracted, she really doesn't know if Yun Chi likes these or not.
"That Miss Yu was dragged down by her appearance, otherwise," Zhou Yan shook her head, "Speaking of which, the Yu family is also ambitious, when the small election was made, the Yu family wanted to send their daughter, and they were also qualified, "Especially the appearance, the proper face of the favorite concubine!"
Long beauty is also wrong, Li Jingyi thinks back to Yu Meiren's appearance, no wonder she is dressed so simply today, but even so, she can't hide her coquettish color, "In fact, her appearance is not something she can control, and the ladies in our capital will not consider her temperament and morality at all,"
As soon as Li Jingyi said it, Zhou Yan couldn't help but nod, thinking about it, what she really cared about should be the Yu family, and if she had to sting the scorpion, it would make people pay attention to her daughter's appearance.
"You are a person," Zhou Yan pointed at Li Jingyi with her finger, and couldn't help but smile, "Who said no, no matter how beautiful a person is, let's look at it for three or five years, can we be fascinated again?" ”
Not far away, a flute sounded, and after a while, the little eunuch ran over again, saying that Miss Lejia, Miss Yu and Miss Yu were using lotus flowers as the theme of the couplet, and Miss Mei was painting, and the flute was played by Miss Jin who came with Zhou Yan.
"We have an ear blessing today," Li Jingyi winked at Zhou Yan, "It's a pity that none of the main ones showed up." ”
Zhou Yan was not interested in the emperor showing his face, and the queen left and right picked new people in the palace just to spread the leaves, but Yun Chi, if he came, he knew that those noble ladies were prepared for him, and he didn't know what kind of expression it would be, especially when Li Jingyi was still present, thinking of this, Zhou Yan couldn't hide the smile on her face, "Yes, Yunhou should really come over and take a look, the lotus flowers in this Taiye Pond are blooming this year is particularly heartbreaking." ”
It's a pity that they didn't steal for long in this leisure, and when the flute fell, Qingyang personally came over to invite Li Jingyi and Zhou Yan, and the two knew that they couldn't hide anymore, so they got up and took Qin Huiniang's sisters to Aiwan Pavilion with their whole clothes.
"You two are really, you actually left us to enjoy a quiet place," Yun Hou saw Li Jingyi and Zhou Yan coming over, and said angrily, "Come, this messenger will be handed over to the two of you," Yun Hou pointed to the stack of poems on the side of the case, "The first three will be decided by the two of you." ”
It's up to them? Li Jingyi and Zhou Yan glanced at each other in surprise, and then looked at the smiling Yunhou, Li Jingyi smiled, "As long as Niangniang and the young ladies don't think that Sister Yan and I don't learn and don't know how to do it,"
She smiled at the group of young ladies from all over the province who looked expectant, "Let's talk about it first, the talent of the two of us is definitely not as good as some of you, but since you recognize our two referees, then no matter whether our judgment is fair or not, we can only admit it." ”
Li Jingyi's peach-colored gold silk satin gown faintly shone in the sun, which made her more and more radiant, although she smiled kindly, but there was undoubted majesty in her words, all the nobles present looked sideways, Miss Yu glanced around, got up and said, "Niangniang has asked the county lord to be the referee, the county lord is naturally the most fair, how can the courtiers and others be dissatisfied?" ”
In fact, Li Jingyi didn't care if these people were convinced, she nodded, turned back to Yunhou and said, "Then the courtier will take the order!" ”
"This kid," Yunhou smiled, waved her hand at Li Jingyi, signaled her to go, and said to the eldest princess of Jinyang, "Jingniang is becoming more and more imposing now, in the future, whether it is the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion or the Eldest Princess's Mansion, she can take care of it!" ”
Today's guests in the palace are all people with heads and faces, and if you can pick a guest of honor among these people, it will be the best of all three.
The eldest princess of Jinyang thinks that her daughter is too imposing, especially before outsiders, if there is a reputation for domineering in the future, it will be even more difficult to find relatives, "Don't blame her, this child is too serious, for fear of smashing the messenger of the mother." ”
How could Queen Yun really care about Li Jingyi, "Jing Niang is a good one, but it's a pity, alas, now that the Rong family has been copied, it can be regarded as a justice for us!" ”
She glanced at the ladies around her, "Don't spend it here with us, the scenery around this liquid pool is excellent, let's play it, otherwise when I go back, if others ask about entering the palace, what can I see?" You can only say that you have been tested for school homework by this mother-in-law! ”
The ladies around her laughed, and Mrs. Qiu said, "Being able to be admitted to the school by the mother is a blessing that they can't ask for,"
She looked at her daughter Zhou Zhuohua, "You are young, follow a few sisters well,"
Li Jingyi and Zhou Yan may not be able to make a few poems, but they still have the eye to comment, and after a few comparisons, they set the top three, Li Jingyi thought of Yu Meiren's flute sound, and couldn't help but say, "It's a pity that we are just commenting on poems, and those ladies who play tunes have suffered a loss,"
"Why is it so difficult? Isn't it over to give them a top three again? Zuo didn't give out a few more things," Zhou Yan smiled disappreciatively, "Just like that Han Fei'er, I have to give her a champion anyway!" ”
Still remembering this stubble, Li Jingyi glanced at Zhou Yan, "You, what are you talking about with a little girl?" ”
"Are you talking about me? Then who said that these are all 'mountain flowers'? Zhou Yan unceremoniously replied to Li Jingyi with a roll of her eyes, revealing her shortcomings.
I just said casually, how long has it been, Zhou Yan hasn't forgotten it, Li Jingyi snorted coldly from her nose, "Then I can get a good praise for the top three this time, so as not to feel that I am dissatisfied,"
……
The nobles from various provinces were originally common in private, and after an order from Yunhou, everyone naturally looked for their girlfriends and scattered to play, and Yu Meiren, who had been staying in his hometown, and Yang Mei, who easily did not go out, came together helplessly.
Yang Mei looked at Yu Meiren, who was more delicate than flowers, and had to admit that she, a woman, saw such a beauty, and also felt pity, "I listened to my sister's flute just now, but I was afraid that it was hard work, what else does my sister like to do in addition to this?" ”
Yu Meiren is tired because of her appearance, she usually puts a lot of effort into her daughter's homework, it can be said that she is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and today is just a small test, but she doesn't want to show it in front of Yang Mei, and said with a shallow smile, "Learning the flute is just a relaxation after doing the female red, I didn't learn anything, and I just knew a few words with my husband at home, but the female red did more,"
Yu Meiren pulled the handkerchief in Yang Mei's hand, "This handkerchief was embroidered by my sister?" What a delicate needlework. ”
