Chapter Forty-Six: The Uninvited Guest
Zuo Di narrowed his eyes and asked Qiu Ju, "Who is that person?" ”
Qiu Ju looked in the direction of her master's finger, and after carefully identifying it, she whispered: "He is Shangshu's right servant who shoots Han Wenchang, Lord Han." ”
Han Wenchang...... Zuo Di recited the name twice.
- The reason why she paid special attention to this person was because she clearly saw the unkindness in the eyes of this Lord Han and the undisguised hostility exuded from her body.
This man seems to really hate his father......
Zuo Di secretly noted down this person, if he was just simply climbing to a high position, it would be okay to kick away the stumbling block of Taifu, if he had colluded with the remnants of the Zheng family......
A cold light flashed in Zuodi's eyes - since her father has the whole Dakang in his heart, she will not ignore it.
The ceremony has begun, and after the guests are all seated, Zuo Zhangheng and Yang sit down.
A handsome girl walked out next to her to wash her hands.
Zuo Di listened to Qiu Ju's introduction, this woman is the daughter of the Ministry of Shangshu Si Maodian, and she is Zuo Chun's close friend, and this time she served as Zuo Chun's praiser.
Zuo Di lowered her eyelids embarrassedly, she didn't know that her eldest sister still had girlfriends, and she really cared too little about her......
After cleaning his hands, he sat down on the west steps.
Subsequently, Zuo Chun, who was dressed in a children's uniform, walked out slowly and came to the venue, and unexpectedly received a burst of praise and praise.
Zuo Zhangheng's face was full of red light, and he thanked all the guests for their congratulations and praises.
Zuo Chun was a little shy, his cheeks were slightly red, but he still saluted the guests in a down-to-earth manner, and then knelt on the central mat.
With a smile on his face, Si You came to Zuo Chun's side and carefully combed her supple green silk......
Although Zuo Di is very unfamiliar with the ceremony, he is still full of emotion - isn't this the eldest sister's coming-of-age ceremony? I have a feeling in my heart that my family has a girl who has just grown up, is it swollen......
At that time, Yang helped a woman out of the side, looking at her fifties, rich and cute, and her smile was very kind.
Zuo Di recognized that the person who was the guest of honor for the eldest sister was actually his maternal grandmother, Mrs. Yang, the Duchess of Dingshan.
Mrs. Yang walked to the center of the field, let go of Yang's hand, looked at Zuo Chun and smiled very kindly, and after the master began to say the ceremony, she sang solemnly:
"On the auspicious day of the month, the first Canadian dollar is served. Abandon your young ambitions, and become virtuous. Shou Kao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu. The words fell, and he stretched out his hand to add a flute to Zuo Chun.
Zuo Chun saluted obediently, took the plain skirt in the driver's hand, and retreated.
Zuo Di was surprised, turned his head and asked Qiu Ju: "This is the end?" "The thunder is loud and the rain is small.
Qiu Ju couldn't help but laugh and said: "Second Miss, the ceremony should be added to three, and the eldest lady has just added it." ”
Zuo Di seems to understand whether he understands or not.
Sure enough, a moment later, Zuo Chun, who had finished changing clothes, returned to the field again. Facing Zuo Zhangheng and the Yang family, he saluted and said, "My daughter thanks her parents for their fertility." ”
Zuo Di was stunned again, it turned out that the ceremony was so cumbersome.
Zuo Chun bowed and knelt back on the table.
Mrs. Yang cleaned her hands again, took the hairpin handed by the driver, and chanted: "Jiyue Lingchen, Nai Shenerfu." Respect for the majesty, the grace of the soot. Eyebrows live for 10,000 years, and will always be blessed by Hu. ”
Si You went to the hairpin for Zuo Chun, and Mrs. Yang put the hairpin on for her.
After Zuo Chun saluted, he took off his clothes again, and this time he came out again, already wearing a deep coat.
Zuo Di was bored, watching Zuo Chun salute the guests and parents-
Suddenly, there was a report from outside the door:
"Nanyu Kingdom Lianbi Princess Sinai Jinhuan, He Zuo's family daughter and Lu - Nanyu Kingdom Langxuan County Lord Sinai Su Ling, He Zuo's family daughter and Lu -"
The ceremony was interrupted by this sudden change, and everyone was surprised and whispered, and the crowd immediately stirred.
At this time, there are still more than three months before the Great Dynasty Meeting, but Nanyu has already arrived in Beijing, and there is no news at all, so he actually crossed the Honglu Temple and the current saint to come to the Taifu Mansion first?
Everyone looked at Zuo Zhangheng with different expressions, surprised, jealous, suspicious, and gloating.
Zuo Di stood up, and looked past everyone to the two colorful women who entered in response.
Both of them wore brocade and silver pleated skirts, with cumbersome flaky silver collars hanging around their necks, and silver floating headrows. As the two of them moved, the silver light flickered and jingled. The difference is that only one person wears a purple tube skirt and one person wears crimson.
Zuo Di sighed in his heart: Miao girl!
- This is clearly the Miao costume in the previous life, is the Nanyu Kingdom Miao Jiang?
The second daughter approached, and Zuo Chun, who was halfway through the ceremony, was in a dilemma, kneeling in place and feeling embarrassed.
Still Mrs. Yang was not surprised, and secretly instructed, Si You came back to his senses and continued to comb Zuo Chun's hair bun.
Mrs. Yang took the gown in her hand and sang unhurriedly: "With the right of the year, with the order of the month, the salty gar is served." Brothers are there, in order to become a virtue. The astragalus is boundless, and it is celebrated by the sky. ”
Zuo Chun took the gown, smiled gratefully at his grandmother, and Shi Shiran went back to change his clothes.
Only then did Old Lady Yang get up and salute: "The courtiers see Princess Lianbi and the Lord of Langxuan." ”
The rest of the crowd followed and saluted.
The purple woman's complexion was a healthy wheat color, and her figure was very handsome, and she snorted softly: "Get up." ”
The woman in the scarlet suit was quite fair-skinned and delicate, and she looked no different from the Han woman, she only smiled slightly, and her temper was very gentle.
Old Mrs. Yang thanked her and got up, neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "The courtiers thanked the two nobles for their deignation to participate in the granddaughter's ceremony. After the ceremony is over, the courtiers will definitely make amends, but at the moment, they have to be wronged for a while. ”
The woman in purple stared at her when she heard this, and she didn't have time to speak.
The woman in the scarlet suit said softly: "It's okay, the county lord and Princess Lianbi are here to congratulate, if they disturb the ceremony, it is not our original intention." Please continue. ”
At this time, everyone knew the identities of the two - the one in the purple outfit was the Sinai Golden Ring of Princess Lianbi, and the one in the scarlet outfit was Sinai Suling, the lord of Langxuan County.
Mrs. Yang thanked her when she heard this. Zuo Chun returned to the field after changing clothes.
Mrs. Yang solemnly gave Zuo Chun the word: Changshun, and then under the auspices of the master, the remaining steps were completed in an orderly manner.
After the ceremony, the guests went to the back hall of the Taifu Mansion for a banquet.
Zuo Di didn't follow Zuo Chun back to the inner courtyard, she rolled her eyes, quietly avoided everyone, and followed the two women of the Southern Yuguo Kingdom who went to the main hall with Zuo Zhangheng.
When they arrived at the main hall, because the other party was a woman, Yang also accompanied him.
Zuo Di was sneaky behind the porch pillar outside the door, and everyone passing by was startled away by her vicious eyes, and for a while no one in the hall noticed her eavesdropping.
Zuo Zhangheng said politely: "The princess and the county lord came to the cold house, and the lower officials failed to prepare in advance, please forgive me for the neglect." ”
Princess Sinai Jinhuan sat on the top with a grin, nostrils facing the sky, and she looked like an invincible posture.
It was Sinai Su Ling, the county lord of Langxuan, who spoke: "This time I came to Kang in advance, it was originally for private matters. I learned that Miss Zuo and Lu took the liberty to come to the door and there was a lot of disturbance. ”
Zuo Zhangheng is connected, and it doesn't hurt.
Zuo Di rolled his eyes when he heard this, the official tone of the two was endless, and they didn't say anything of value.
The two of them talked about the climate of the two countries to what they had seen and heard on the road, and they were so close to falling asleep that they got up and said goodbye.
Zuo Zhangheng made a gesture to stay, but the other party politely refused.
Zuo Zhangheng said: "I don't know if the princess and the county lord have informed Honglu Temple, so as to arrange a place for your party to live." ”
Sinai Su Ling said with a smile: "Since it is for private matters, you should arrange it yourself, so you don't have to bother Honglu Temple, thank you for your care." ”
After the two left, Zuo Di saw that there was no news to investigate, and was about to slip away.
Zuo Zhangheng suddenly spoke: "Don't hide, come in, my father has seen you." ”
Zuo Di stuck out his tongue and entered the main hall.
Seeing the disapproval on Yang's face, Sajiao stepped forward to hold her arm and rubbed her head into her arms.
Yang nodded his daughter's head angrily, and said to Zuo Zhangheng: "She is a worrying person, if you want to talk, go to the study, I still have to go to see Gu Chun'er." ”
Zuo Di smiled and grinned, and followed the grimacing father to the study.
