Sheng Mingzhu looked at the lanterns hanging high at the gate of Jiang Mansion, and said in her heart that Sheng Feifei was afraid that she had deliberately set herself up.

I didn't understand where her malice came from, and there were slight ripples in her eyebrows, so she was ready to get into the carriage again, "What should I do?" Go home the way you came. "If you don't enter, you won't enter, and she is too lazy to participate in any poetry meeting, so she might as well go home and eat two more sweet zongzi.

"This sister?"

Someone seemed to call her back, and Sheng Mingzhu turned around. In the dark of night, the young woman wore a lake blue dress, probably because she was not in good shape, and now she was wearing a cloak in such a weather, and there was a circle of white and soft fluff next to her face, and she smiled, and the whole person looked soft and weak.

"I see you've just arrived, why are you going back again?"

Sheng Mingzhu glanced at the handkerchief in her hand slightly, lowered her head, "Miss Song......" She embroidered the word Song on her handkerchief, and the Song family, who could come to the county lord's mansion, stepped forward and said softly, "It should be the granddaughter of Song Ge Lao, Miss Song Yu." ”

"I don't think I've seen you before?"

Song Yu is the granddaughter of Song Ge, and the old family of Song Ge is a rare noble family. She was also invited many times among the nobles and went to poetry meetings many times. Sheng Mingzhu took off the felt hat on her head, and when she slipped her hair in a bun, she was blown in front of her by the wind without obeying the call, she chuckled lightly, "I just returned to the capital from Bingzhou with my father a few days ago——"

Song Yu was stunned for a moment, and quickly came back to her senses, she remembered that only the third room of the Sheng family had just returned to Beijing recently, "Is my sister a member of the Sheng family?" ”

Sheng Mingzhu nodded. Mrs. Song and Old Song Ge are from the same family, their cousins are a little far away, what is the relationship, Song Yu asked again, "Why do you stand outside and don't go in, even on a summer night, blowing too much wind is not good for your body and bones." ”

"I originally came with my second sister. I was sleepy on the road, and I was in a hurry, so I couldn't see my second sister here, and I didn't pay a respect. I thought I'd go back first. ”

She didn't say anything in her words, after all, there is no one behind her. And Sheng Mingzhu didn't take the fights of these little daughters to heart.

"I am Song Yu in the Song Mansion. According to the relationship, you can be regarded as your distant cousin. Song Yu smiled, people looked very easy to get along with, "You have come to the capital now, and everyone will always be stubborn together in the future." I don't know how long it will drag on if I don't go today, and the rest of the sisters also want to see you early, Sister Sheng, why don't you go in with me? ”

She speaks very gently, and her whole temperament makes people can't help but be close. Sheng Mingzhu looked at her amiable, and she didn't shirk it. Song Yu followed a maid when she came, and when she entered the house, she was supposed to help her, but she was touched away by one hand and took Sheng Mingzhu's hand and walked in. Sheng Mingzhu glanced back, but saw that she had a smile on her face, nothing abnormal.

——

Sheng Feifei and Meng Yao had already entered the pavilion.

It is summer, and the large swaying of the lotus pond next to it also has the feeling of Yuyu Qionglou. The surrounding maids served some fruit tea to these young ladies and put some more futons. The Great Wei Dynasty is more important to Han customs than the previous Great Zhou, and it is precisely because of this that the name of the country is Dawei.

The ladies of the family also imitated the style of the Wei and Jin dynasties.

Under the swaying of the night wind, the surrounding flowers danced. Not far away, a woman in plain white clothes was walking, and she couldn't see her clearly from a distance, but when she got closer, it seemed that the ink was scattered, and her eyebrows were like the smoke rising from the south of the Yangtze River.

Jiang Runyan has always liked white clothes, but he was afraid of being bland, so he dotted a red mole in the center of his eyebrows. In the green bushes, they complement each other even better. Slender steps, all the money came, she smiled just right, "I was tripped up by something just now, and I came a little late, sisters, don't blame." ”

"It's not too late, it's just right." Sheng Feifei posted it, deliberately wanting to appear closer to the county lord, and said, "Have the county lords met my sister?" I just met her a few days ago, and I said that I haven't been in good health lately? ”

Jiang Runyan shook his head, "The Horse Mansion and the Jiang Mansion are separated by a wall, and I haven't seen each other for some days recently. "Jiang Runyan is the daughter of the eldest princess and lives in the Horse Mansion. And outside the wall, it is jokingly called Jiang's mother's home - Jiangfu. Sheng Ruoqiu is married to the concubine of the second master of Jiangfu, and he is a little far from the county lord.

Sheng Feifei was a little sneering, so she shook the fan and stopped talking.

Meng Yao half-knelt on the futon, looked at Jiang Runyan's dress today, and praised, "The county lord has never seen this body before, and from a distance, it looks like the moon has come down Fairy Chang'e!" Meng Yao has always been a hab, and a few noble girls next to her whispered, but she couldn't bear to be flattered by others to win the favor of the county lord.

Jiang Runyan pinched the fan and blocked the smile, "How can it be as beautiful as you say", and said, "Even if I count my body, I can't compare to Sister Song, she has always had a good backbone, but my mother looks very dignified, saying that she is the most similar to the Han girl in the world." ”

It's like two female students in ethnology, one of them is the most beautiful, and the other is the best. It's inevitable to compare. Jiang Runyan's beautiful eyes turned slightly, rippling and shining, "Why don't you see Sister Song, what about her?" ”

Someone in the crowd shouted behind her, "No, Cao Cao Cao will arrive." ”

Jiang Runyan twisted his body half-kneeling. There were two graceful women walking towards her, she and Song Yu were often compared, and they recognized at a glance that the person in the lake-green clothes was her, and the person next to her, her eyes were half-narrowed-

Sheng Mingzhu is wearing a light pink dress with wide sleeves, and now she is walking with Song Yu, she walks well, she can't hang her children, so she also sways up according to the rules she learned before. The jade bracelet she wears on her hand occasionally sneaks out and shows her head, and she is like a beautiful jade, which is natural.

Some people are born to be stars in the sky, and they are born to attract attention, Jiang Runyan asked backwards, "I haven't seen that pink dressed before?" Which lady? ”

Sheng Feifei also saw it, but she didn't bother to reply at first. Until Song Yu and Sheng Mingzhu had already arrived, they each found a futon and half-knelt down.

"This is the eldest daughter of my third uncle, Mingzhu. Just came back from Bingzhou", Sheng Feifei came back to her senses and hurriedly introduced. Sheng Mingzhu knelt upright, with one side of her cheeks falling, looking well-behaved and exquisite.

Jiang Runyan glanced at it again, and the smart beauty under the moon before seemed to have become an illusion.

"Was Miss Sheng in Bingzhou before? It is a good place. Jiang Runyan said with a smile. Sheng Mingzhu hung her head, as if she didn't know how to reply to her words, "Yes, I used to be in Bingzhou." ”

Jiang Runyan didn't speak. She only raised the wine in her glass and took a sip, and then she also saw the bracelet on her wrist that was just very eye-catching—it was just a water glass, and the bracelet was very outdated and cheap.

Song Yu glanced at Sheng Mingzhu puzzled, because she was still very talkative and funny on the way between the two. Now that she was like a piece of wood, she was afraid that she would be nervous, so she said, "Miss Sheng just came, and she doesn't know many rules. What are the rules of today's poetry meeting, why don't you talk about it again? ”

Jiang Runyan said, "Where do you have so many rules, it's just that the sisters are stubborn here." Now that Miss Sheng has seen her for the first time, there is a new stubborn method, do you have any good ideas? ”

In front of him was a low table, Sheng Feifei was half-kneeling, and poked Meng Yao with a fan without a trace. Meng Yao's face was silent, "I looked at it from a distance just now, the bracelet on Sister Sheng's wrist is very good-looking, why don't you use jade as the theme to compose a poem?" ”

Sheng Mingzhu lowered his head and looked at the bracelet on his wrist, and Meng Yao said again, "Sister Mingzhu, can you cut your love and take the bracelet off for everyone to see?" ”

Song Yu didn't think much about it, and said that everyone gave face to the new playmate. looked at Sheng Mingzhu, she hung her head, and soon took off the bracelet in her hand, handed over the golden branch, and the maid next to her took it and put it in the center of the low table in front of her.

There was a small laugh coming from below, very small. However, it was obvious that someone asked after a while, "Sister Mingzhu, do you wear a bracelet of water glass in the state of the state?" It's okay, it's very worthy of a beauty like you, Sister Mingzhu, you are timid when you look at it, gentle as water. Looking at Sister Mingzhu's appearance, it is no wonder that Master Sheng San dotes on Aunt Liu so much, and sure enough, there are beauties in Jiangnan. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of laughter.

Jiang Runyan frowned slightly, and only then did he remember that Master Sheng San had no concubines, only two concubines. She has never liked concubines, she just thinks they are some goods that enter the house, "This bracelet is very suitable for Miss Sheng." She smiled, "The Han girl Xu Lai likes this water-like, silk-like thing." "Silk flowers have been born around vines since ancient times, like weak women.

Sheng Mingzhu raised his head, and a smile appeared on his face, "Jiangnan does produce beauties." In Bingzhou City before, I had also heard of a beauty like Jiang and Ma Xi jade, which made people envy the appearance of the eldest princess, how much it should be like water. ”

Jiang Runyan looked over, but she only hung her head. The eldest princess is a Tuoba person, and Jiang Runyan never calls himself a Han person. Jiang Juma loves gentle and beautiful women, and there are countless concubines in the house, but people don't know whether she is intentional or not.

When it comes to the eldest princess, no one dares to mention the topic just now.

Meng Yao glanced at Sheng Feifei, she shook her head, and secretly glared at Sheng Mingzhu again, originally thinking of making fun of this girl from the countryside to be funny, but she didn't expect her to actually pull the eldest princess.

"This bracelet is precious, Mingzhu, you can take it back." Sheng Feifei said.

Sheng Mingzhu waved his hand as if he was afraid, "No, second sister." I didn't know that there were often water glass bracelets in Bingzhou, so I thought it was not a precious thing, so I dared to accept this gift from my aunt. Now it seems to be extraordinarily precious, second sister, you can help me return it to the eldest uncle, it is so precious, the pearl really dare not accept it. ”

Sheng Feifei's face turned red as if it were on fire.

"Sheng Mingzhu!" She called out in a low but high voice.

Mingzhu glanced at her blankly, and timidly, as if she didn't understand anything, "Second sister, what's wrong?" ”

She didn't seem to understand, but the ladies next to her understood everything. Some people who covered their handkerchiefs and laughed lightly.

"Isn't it time to compose poetry? Miss Sheng is here for the first time, please first? After all, he was a guest invited to his poetry meeting, and Jiang Runyan didn't want to make it ugly, so he diverted the topic.
