Chapter 190: First Meeting

Prince Rong's voice was extremely low, and only he and Wanying could hear it. Wanying wanted to reply to him, but through the window paper, she had already seen everyone move from the wing room into the main hall, so she had to give up.

Moving his gaze to the front, he saw two rows of chairs arranged in unison below, three on each side very symmetrical. There is a coffee table sandwiched between the chair and the chair, and there is a stack of peach blossom cakes on the coffee table early, and Wanying can see the texture on the peach petals from a few steps away.

Two side concubines, four lovers, and six maids, the originally spacious main hall was also crowded. A few maids placed the goose feather ball in front of the six people.

I saw everyone leaning over and saluting, and said in unison: "Wang Ye Jin'an, Niang Niang Jin'an." ”

Prince Rong and Wanying said in unison: "Excuse me-"

Everyone got up, the maids and maids helped their masters to get up, and several side rooms stood next to their seats according to their position and seniority.

Wanying looked down, and the peony-colored dress standing next to the first seat on the left was not to guess, and she knew that she was Feng Ronghui. At this moment, she took a delicate step, knelt on the ground, and said crisply: "Concubine Feng, meet Mrs. Wangye, I wish the prince good health and peace and a thousand years......

When Concubine Feng talked about her mother's thousand autumns, her mouth twitched, and Wanying looked at Concubine Feng with her head down, like a water lily flower, which was too shy to cool the breeze. Especially the tears in the eyes are really pitiful.

Concubine Feng bit her lip, lowered her head, and picked up what she had just said for a moment: "Niangniang is blessed for a thousand years......

From beginning to end, Concubine Feng kept her head down from beginning to end, and did not look at Prince Rong or Wanying.

The woman in the first seat on the right also leaned down and bowed: "Concubine Zhou, meet the prince and the mother, may the prince be blessed and safe, and the mother will be blessed for a thousand years." ”

Prince Rong raised his hand to signal the two of them to get up, and Wan Ying said with a full anger when Prince Rong raised his hand: "Excuse me-"

Then the four lovers on the left and right knelt down and bowed to each other and said: "Lover Liu, Lover Meng, Lover He, Lover Li, meet the prince Niangniang, may the prince be blessed with a thousand years of happiness, and the mother will be happy for a long time." ”

After everyone's luggage was completed, Yun Niang took a group of maids to pour tea for everyone. Tea before the Ming Dynasty, the best in the Dragon Well of West Lake, the water used to cook tea is also the rain stored in the heart of the magnolia flower on the day of the Qingming Festival.

"Good tea, good teaβ€”" Prince Rong was full of praise.

As soon as the words fell, I looked up and saw that everyone was satisfied. Suddenly, I heard a string of crisp words like silver bells: "Niangniang has good tea here and better water, not to mention that the West Lake Longjing is the best in the Dragon Well, but this tea seems to be unusual." ”

Following the prestige, it was Liu Liangren who spoke, only to see her eyebrows like picturesque, sideburns like a knife, her eyes were as smart as the water of three autumns, and her cherry lips were slightly open like peach and plum flowers. Although it is not a country and a city, a peerless and independent posture, but if you take a closer look, the jade is clean and clear, graceful, small and smart, and it is also a natural beauty that is difficult to give up. In particular, there seems to be something different in the words.

In fact, how can Wanying not know the meaning of this? Her delicate and weird tone is probably not only Wanying, but who else in the audience can not understand?

Feng and Zhou are the side concubines who are married by the saint, and they are also holding their breath at the moment, she is out in public like this, but she just wants to tell Wanying that among the several side concubines and concubines present in the palace at the moment, she is the only one who is different, maybe she can compete with Wanying, the main concubine?

Wanying was silent, thinking about how to pick up her words. If she doesn't make a sound, it is tantamount to acquiescing to her secret provocation, and if she follows her words, it makes her think that Wanying can't hear the reason in her words.

"This king tastes this tea mellow and sweet, it is the West Lake Longjing before the Ming Dynasty that the Queen Mother appreciated yesterday. This water is thought to be the rain on the day of Qingming this year, but the faint sweetness in this water must be due to the rain in the heart of the flower stained with nectar. The speaker was Prince Rong, and the love in his eyebrows had already overflowed, completely ignoring everyone who sat down. Wan Ying swept away with her afterglow and happened to fall on Feng and Liu on the left, Feng was self-evidently silent, and Liu was unexpectedly surprised.

"The prince's tea art is improving." Wanying was overjoyed, this rain was the rain in the heart of the newly bloomed white magnolia flowers harvested at home on the day of Qingming. Shibei three days should be impressed. I didn't expect to see Prince Rong's tea art for two months, and he really improved a lot.

I remember that day in Rongshou Palace, Prince Rong held two cups of tea to Wanying, and was ridiculed by Wanying as a fool to quench her thirst. Unexpectedly, within a few months, Prince Rong's understanding of the tea ceremony has changed qualitatively.

originally wanted to tease Prince Rong, but because everyone was there, he couldn't bear to tease.

"Mrs. tea ceremony is exquisite, this king has long been taught, today's Chunhuatai, clean water washing the ground, fairy dew and raccoons, the Quartet is clean and elegant, this king expected that Mrs. will cook fine tea to entertain you. Madame is so elegant, this Wang Yan can drag Madame back. However, the king's tea art has not improved, but this year's and last year's rain can still be drunk. ”

At this time, there was no one else in Prince Rong's eyes, the doting in his mouth, the doting in his eyes, everyone could see it clearly when he sat down.

Seeing that Prince Rong was refreshed and interested, Liu said with a smile on his face: "The prince's tea art is improving, and the lady's tea skills are amazing, so harmonious, I really envy others." As the saying goes, 'home and everything is prosperous', our palace is only afraid that it will become more and more prosperous. ”

Prince Rong's originally high interest suddenly became a little low, and said: "You are embarrassed to call this king, this king is not good at tea art, but good at memory." There was a great drought this spring, and it rained a drizzle on the day of Qingming. ”

Wanying knew that he was worried about the affairs of the court again. Sure enough, Prince Rong said faintly: "There is a big drought in spring, and I don't know how much the summer harvest can be damaged?" ”

Wan Ying persuaded gently: "Lord Wang, it snowed seven or eight times last winter, as the saying goes, 'Ruixue is a good year', and this year must be a good year." ”

The gloom on Prince Rong's face gradually began to dissipate. Eyes and eyes said to Wanying: "Madame knows the king's heart best. ”

In front of a concubine, Wanying was very shy. The lover Liu stood up with a smile, held up the cup and said: "Wang Ye Niangniang, love and affection, we are very happy to be concubines, a cup of tea, I wish the Wang Ye Niang to grow old and love for a lifetime." ”

I don't know if Liu didn't go to school, or the tutoring is not very strict, this sentence is very ugly and indecent. Not to mention the blending of affection, it makes people think about it. She herself said that she was a concubine, obviously without self-knowledge.

"Liu, if the slave family heard it correctly just now, you should be a good person, right? The slave family remembers the harem of the Han Dynasty, and the beloved is a low-level concubine, if the slave family is not mistaken, it is clearly recorded in our "Great Zhou Huidian": The beloved is not a slave or a maid, but a low-level female official who serves in the palace. But now the prince doesn't seem to have this will, I don't know if the word 'concubine' in Liu Liang's mouth is suspected of putting gold on his face? ”

Wan Ying was secretly thinking about the vulgarity in Liu's words. I didn't expect such a string of merciless words to be said directly. Wan Yingshun went to the prestige, and the person who spoke was the side concubine Zhou, who was facing the Liu family with a disgusted face.

Prince Rong slowly drank a cup of tea, and seemed to acquiesce in Concubine Zhou's attitude.

"Zhou Niangniang, the slave family was overjoyed for a while, and they didn't have the idea to say that they had made a mistake in their words."

"Mother? The slave family really doesn't dare to be, don't harm the slave family, the mother sits on it, your flattery makes the slave family go to hell. The disgust in Concubine Zhou's eyes was even more incomprehensible.

"Sister Zhou, the slave family is really crazy today, I will compensate you, and I will not compensate the mother." Liu Liangren said and bowed to Concubine Zhou first, and then blessed Wan Ying.

"Okay, okay, the slave family doesn't have a girl like you. Not to mention that you climb our Shangshu Mansion, the slave family really doesn't look down on you for this style. ”

Wanying pursed the cup, bit the teacup with her teeth, and secretly admired in her heart: "Sure enough, it is the young lady of the Shangshu family of the military department, what a good temper." ”

"The side concubine is quick to talk, so that the slave family has no place to be ashamed." Liu Liangren was teased and humiliated, and said with a smile on his face.

"It's really a corner wall......"

Prince Rong 'poofed' and spit out all the tea in his mouth. Then he hurriedly put away his smiling face and said, "Zhou, don't be presumptuous!" ”

Liu Liangren didn't hear Concubine Zhou scolding her for being thick-skinned, and when she heard the prince reprimanding Concubine Zhou, she actually smiled and sat in her seat proudly.

Wanying looked helpless, turned to Hongfu and said, "Today's family banquet, you go and see how the kitchen is prepared, and then let the prepared things be moved in outside."

Prince Rong also put away Fang Cai's low voice, pulled his face and reluctantly said to everyone: "Today's family banquet, you don't have to be restrained. ”

This banquet is the Queen Mother's thousands of instructions, and it must be fulfilled, so even if Prince Rong is unwilling to do so, he has to sit here honestly at this moment.

When everyone heard the prince speak, their hearts were overjoyed, and they said in unison, "Yes." ”

A cup of tea, Qiu Li took a few little eunuchs outside the hall to remove the two twelve spring day Xingle pear plate screens on both sides of the hall, the original spacious room appeared more atmospheric, only to have a screen to block the eyes, everyone did not see the style of the main hall of Chunhuatai, now the screen is torn off, only to see Zhou's, Liu's, Meng's, He's, Li's eyes are pretending to wander back and forth in the hall inadvertently.

Only she was still sitting upright, sitting there with a light breeze and a noble bearing, like the lady of the main room. The peony-colored dress pierced into Wanying's heart like a wheat: My teacher Wanying and Prince Rong have become husband and wife, who do you make such a face for?

The screen was raised, more than a dozen palace maids carried food boxes, and the fish flowed in, and on the round dining table with a beautiful and beautiful appearance, a table full of various delicacies from the mountains and seas was placed. Seeing that Wanying was a little distracted, Prince Rong got up and took Wanying's hand, and whispered, "What do you think?" Such a fascination! ”

Wan Ying smiled and shook her head. Prince Rong, Wanying, Feng, and Zhou naturally sat at the table, and the remaining four lovers sat on the table next to them.

"I heard that the maiko in the dance music class in the house have rehearsed a new dance music of "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", I wonder if I can borrow the light of my wife today and have the honor to watch it?" The lover Meng said. ”

Prince Rong readily agreed. Raise a glass and let everyone drink together.

The noon sun shone directly into the hall, and because of drinking, a thin layer of fragrant sweat appeared on everyone's foreheads, and Liu took the incense fan he carried with him and swayed drunkenly. It was already a little hot, and when she fanned it like this, even Wanying felt tired of getting hot.

"Niangniang's Chunhuatai is magnificent, magnificent, especially the wisteria magnolia in the courtyard is even more delicate and beautiful, and it is really refreshing to enjoy in spring, but Chunhuatai has no high wood shade, and the summer is very hot, and Niangniang's jade body is afraid to be tortured?" It was Liu who spoke.

The family banquet in the mansion, dancing and music were played in unison, and Prince Rong's interest was not very high. Hearing what Liu said, he suddenly came to his senses, and said thoughtfully and lossily: "This king didn't expect this, Chunhuatai sits in the north and faces south, and now it is so hot and dry, in the middle of summer, how can Mrs. withstand the heat?" ”
