Chapter 290 is pressing
Seeing that the banquet was about to start, Jin Zhao got up and retired.
On the way to Yaohua Palace, Qiao Ci and Qing Wen glanced at each other, Qing Wen pursed her lips, and said first: "Miss, Concubine Fang also said the purpose of this banquet, since it is for the second prince's business, why should we go to join in this fun, anyway, it has nothing to do with us, it is better not to go."
Those high-ranking ladies don't interact with Su Jinzhao on weekdays, and most of them are close to Yan Xue, on such occasions, as Qingwen said, it's better not to go.
Jin Zhao didn't think so, and said with a smile: "If you don't go, you may miss a good show, I haven't watched a play for a long time, and today is just the right time to join in this excitement."
As soon as these words came out, the two maids were a little confused, and Qiao Ci said, "Watching a play? What does Miss mean by that? Why don't the slaves and maids understand? ”
Jin Zhao smiled and said, "Since it's a play, it's not interesting to say it." Let's go, it will be estimated that there will not be many people to arrive, and if we go too late, we will have to fall into the hands of others. ”
The protagonist of this banquet was someone else, and she didn't want to attract attention in the first place.
When Jin Zhao arrived at the Yaohua Palace, as she expected, the official ladies who had not yet come out of the cabinet in Kyoto were all here, and the scene was not lively for a while.
For Yu Wenxian, Concubine Ru is really well-intentioned. After inviting so many young ladies from official families, today's banquet is not very lively, presumably many of these people want to marry into the heavenly family.
When everyone saw Su Jinzhao, they were all surprised. People throughout Kyoto have rumored that Su Jinzhao is an ugly person, and now this appearance has recovered. It's unbelievable.
Jin Zhao glanced at everyone slightly, Su Jinling was not invited. It's no wonder that the identity of a concubine, with the arrogant temperament of a concubine, how could she get into her eyes, and those who come today are basically concubines.
Jin Zhao stepped forward and respectfully saluted, Concubine Ru raised her hand, and said in a light tone: "Third Imperial Princess, I'm waiting for you."
The implication was that she was late.
Jin Zhao didn't think that it was obvious that someone else had come early.
Concubine Ru has never liked to wait for people, no matter whether she is late or not, she is the last to come, and Concubine Ru is naturally uncomfortable.
Jin Zhao replied: "I just went to Wuxi Palace to see my mother, because I haven't seen him for some days, I said that I have a conversation, this is too late, please forgive me for my sins."
Hearing that Jin Zhao said that he was going to ask Concubine Jing for peace, Concubine Ru's face immediately stiffened, remembering Concubine Jing's refusal yesterday, she was naturally a little unhappy in her heart, and it was difficult to show it directly in front of others, so she smiled again, and said: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way, it is said that the third princess is a filial child, and she just entered the palace to visit Concubine Jing, but it is really enviable, if only my emperor could marry such a woman."
As she spoke, Concubine Ru pointed to the side and motioned for her to sit down and speak.
As soon as Jin Zhao sat down, he heard Pan Yuelian, the daughter of the official secretary, say: "Even if the filial piety of the three princes is commendable, today is like a concubine Niangniang's banquet, which is so late, so that everyone can sit and wait for the imperial concubine alone, it is really a little unreasonable." How can it be said that the three imperial concubines are also from famous families, we just wait, how can we call them such as concubines and Niangniang, etc., and when they are passed out, won't it be said that people don't know how to be polite. Today's loss is such as a concubine Niangniang, a person with a very good temper, if you change to someone else, I'm afraid that she won't be so good at talking. ”
These words are undoubtedly currying favor with Concubine Ru, Concubine Ru is now looking for a candidate for the imperial concubine for the second prince Yu Wenxian, some people who want to marry into the heavenly family, and those who have been glorious since then are naturally moved, and it is inevitable that some people want to curry favor with Concubine Ru.
Jin Zhao still had a smile on his face, and said: "Miss Pan's words are wrong, such as the concubine Niangniang didn't say anything, is it possible that you want to blame me?"
After hearing this, Pan Yuelian suddenly choked.
Jin Zhao continued: "Besides, I am not late, today Concubine Ru is the master of this banquet, in front of everyone, Pan Yuelian is the host, what does this mean?"
If the concubine didn't say anything, a daughter of a scholar in the ministry could accuse the dignified imperial concubine of not being reasonable, and it was all beyond the etiquette.
Pan Yuelian was naturally unconvinced when she heard this, what she said was the truth, and when Su Jinzhao said this, it became her no, and for a while, everyone looked at her a little strangely.
She wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to put it.
Concubine Ru saw it in her eyes, and Pan Yuelian, the daughter of the official book, was also in the scope of Concubine Ru's consideration, but now she made such a scene, which shows how reckless she is on weekdays. Such a woman, if she becomes the second imperial concubine, I don't know how many troubles she will cause in the future. If not only did he not help the second prince, but also caused him chaos, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses. Such a woman must not be her daughter-in-law.
Pan Yuelian looked at Concubine Ru, thinking that she had offended Su Jinzhao for her after all, and she would speak by herself, but who knows, the other party didn't see it at all, and lowered her head to drink tea. As if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with her.
Since Pan Yuelian was no longer among the candidates she was considering, wouldn't she offend Su Jinzhao if she spoke for a reckless woman.
Right now, she doesn't want to tear her face with the other party, and for the sake of an innocuous person, she will do something unfavorable to herself, no matter how it is calculated, she simply ignores it.
Seeing that Concubine Ru was indifferent to this matter, Pan Yuelian panicked for a while, and she didn't know how to deal with Jin Zhao.
At this time, Yan Xue opened her mouth: "The third imperial concubine is really serious, the sister of the Pan family has always been a straightforward person, she also watched everyone wait for a long time and did not see you coming, so she couldn't help but say a few words, I didn't grasp the measure for a while, why should the third imperial concubine bother with the sister of the Pan family." Besides, General Su and Master Pan are both colleagues who are officials in the court, and if they knew that they were unhappy today for a trivial matter, they would not be able to hang their faces. In my opinion, there are a large number of the three imperial concubines, so don't embarrass Sister Pan, she is also unintentional. ”
Yan Xue's words are too profound.
If she is unintentional, then she has become a person who has the intention to make trouble.
Jin Zhao smiled and said, "What is Miss Yan talking about, how can I embarrass Miss Pan, but Miss Pan has been accusing me of not, I am reasoning with her." If I don't make it clear, wouldn't it be that she has been misunderstood, then I won't be able to explain it clearly. I'm a person who has to ask for an understanding of everything, and I don't like to confuse people to say no. Miss Yan said this as if I had bullied her, and with so many pairs of eyes here, it was clear that Miss Pan was the first to speak. ”
Yan Xue's face froze, Jin Zhao's eloquence, she had been taught, and said: "It's all said that it's an unintentional mistake, why should the third princess be aggressive."
Aggressive?
Jin Zhao sneered secretly, who was the first to be aggressive?
