Chapter Twenty-Seven: Fighting Back Against the Scheming Girl

Looking at the back of his mother's happy departure, Zhongli Junqing couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. They want to go crazy when they miss their grandchildren. But he didn't really intend to be celibate, although he often tossed and turned among the flowers, but he didn't want to marry a woman he didn't like.

Picked up the purse again, put it in the palm of his hand and played with it, and the cunning face of Shangguan Qingyue's elf unexpectedly appeared in his mind.

Her laughter, her silliness, her wit, her boldness...... A little bit of fragments, one picture after another, almost without omission.

Helped his forehead, what's wrong with him? When did these images fall into his memory? How is it not clear to him himself?

Wei Mansion, inside the Qingqiu Pavilion.

"Hongsi, help find it, why is my purse missing?"

It's strange, inside and outside the house, and on the body, I have searched everywhere, but there is still nothing.

Could it be that it fell in King Jing's Mansion during the toss last night? also blamed her for being careless, why didn't she find out when she got up early in the palace? This IQ is worrying.

"Holy, this is Miss Ben's pocket money for a whole month!"

Shangguan Qingyue patted his head in annoyance and sighed.

"Second Miss, Hongsi still has some here, it's better to take it and use it first."

Seeing this, Hong Si hurriedly spoke. The expenses in the house and the monthly silver everywhere are all managed by the eldest lady, that is, Wei Xueyao's mother, no more and no less every month, just after the beginning of May, the silver has only been sent down for a few days, and Shangguan Qingyue has lost all of it, which will indeed be a little sad.

Shangguan Qingyue waved his hand, and then lay down on the bed, "No need, I'll ask the prince if he saw it." ”

"Uh...... Second Miss, seeing that the hour is approaching, which dress do you want to wear to Lord Zhongli's birthday banquet? ”

"What? The demon fox's birthday feast? ”

Shangguan Qingyue, who was about to fall asleep, heard this and opened his eyes again. How did she not know? Even if you want to prepare a birthday gift now, I'm afraid it's too late, right? What's more, her purse is lost and she is penniless.

"Red Si, where's Linfeng?"

"Young master, it seems that I went to the eldest lady."

Alas, forget it, I wanted him to help prepare something, but it seems that it was too late.

"Hongsi, help me dress and change my ......"

In the evening, the Shangshu Mansion was lit up with lights, and the flow of people continued.

Zhongli Junqing's birthday banquet, even if it is not a big event, but because of his official position in the court, many ministers and eunuchs are still flocking to it.

Due to the large number of people attending the banquet, the banquet was arranged in the back garden.

Although the back garden of the house is not very large, it is also colorful with colorful flowers and trees and hanging lanterns. In addition, the lotus fragrance wafts from time to time from the lotus pond, so it is even more refreshing.

"I didn't expect that the garden on the Zhongli Lord's Mansion is also beautiful......" Shen Rong'er, the daughter of a certain mansion sitting in the pavilion, shook the fan in her hand lightly, and first spoke in admiration.

Another official lady beside her also bowed her head and responded: "It's really good."

"Hey! I said Miss Shen, I was quite surprised to see you today, and I thought that you, Mrs. Zhongli, didn't think about it, and I wouldn't be able to think about it when I went back! ”

Opposite, Sun Yuyan, who was sitting on the side opposite her, glanced at her a few times, and his tone was very contemptuous.

"That's it, it's ......" Behind her, there were several young ladies of the same age who echoed her gossip.

"I thought I could climb high branches, but I was slapped in the face, Lord Zhongli has no intention of you at all, are you embarrassed to come tonight?"

After hearing this, Shen Rong'er couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly defended herself: "This kind of thing was originally arranged by my father and Uncle Zhongli, whether it succeeds or not, as a daughter, don't you only have to obey the orders of your parents?"

"Miss Sun, I think Miss Shen is right, and I don't blame her." Not far from the other side, Lan Cuiping, who had been sitting there without making a sound, finally couldn't stand it, so he said lightly.

"Yo, isn't this Miss Lan? I heard that the Wei family seems to be very dissatisfied with you and won't let you in! Since you have a great friendship with Miss Shen, why haven't you seen a good marriage for you? ”

"What does it have to do with you?"

Lan Cuiping looked at each other coldly, compared with his previous cowardly temperament, it was indeed the opposite of each other.

"Isn't that right?" Although Sun Yu was a little soft, he still pushed back for the sake of face.

"What's the noise? Is my Shangshu Mansion for you to quarrel? ”

Before Lan Cuiping could continue to reply, Zhongli Junqing, who had already walked outside the pavilion, heard a scolding.

"Son!" Feng Xiuling, who was also dressed in a gorgeous suit, secretly pulled Zhongli Junqing's sleeve, why was his temper so explosive today? I haven't seen him like this on weekdays.

"Hmm...... Ladies and gentlemen, today is Junqing's birthday banquet, it is rare for everyone to get together, try to contact as many of our families as possible......" Feng Xiuling was busy playing the round, "Come, let's go and sit down, there are a lot of pastries and fruits prepared on the table......"

"Thank you, old lady." Sun Yu stood up, her face extremely shy. What she just said was heard by Zhongli Junqing and them, which must have damaged her beautiful image, so she had to save it no matter what.

"It's picturesque here, and it's rare that everyone is there, so why don't you play a song for everyone later, and chat about it, how about it?"

"Yes, welcome!" Feng Xiuling should be able to meet his requirements, "Miss Yu'er can prepare first." ”

"Young Master Wei, Miss Wei, Miss Shangguan has arrived!"

As the butler shouted, three figures appeared at the door.

"Linfeng, you're here?" Zhongli Junqing stepped forward and said hello first.

"Congratulations, Lord Zhongli...... Uh, congratulations! ”

Shangguan Qingyue, who followed the two of them, couldn't help but pout. This Zhongli, as well as Qu Jinglan, seems to be indeed the face of Canglang Country.

The set of red dazzling brocade clothes he wore tonight especially highlighted his evil charm and unruliness, and looking at those little women who were either blushing or shy, they knew that they had been poisoned a lot!

"Yo, Yue'er, are you also fascinated by Lord Ben, why do you look at me so well?" Zhongli Junqing returned to her old appearance, and tapped her smooth forehead with a folding fan.

"Confused, narcissistic!"

A quarter of an hour later, the banquet officially began. Needless to say, the old man of Zhongli and Zhongli Junqing gave speeches to thank him, and in order to set off the atmosphere, a singing and dancing performance was also arranged on the central stage of the venue.

At first, Shangguan Qingyue was somewhat interested, but the more she looked at the back, the more bored she felt.

After looking around, I unexpectedly found the blue green screen sitting alone in the corner. Turning her head to look at Wei Xueyao, who was staring at her back and gritting her teeth, Shangguan Qingyue couldn't help but chuckle.

Neither of these two women is good at stubble.

"Hiss......" Suddenly, in Shangguan Qingyue's mind, a sub-picture suddenly appeared after a tingling sensation!

Hooked his lips, heh, it seems that someone is going to be unlucky again?

"Be quiet, the following program is the guqin song "A Hundred Flowers for Beauty" prepared by Miss Sun Yu......"

"Good!" Everyone in the audience applauded.

"Thank you for cheering!" After Sun Yu came to the stage, he first saluted, "However, it may be boring to play the piano music alone with only a little girl." Therefore, the little girl would like to propose that while playing the music, two more young ladies should be invited to dance, what do you think? ”

"I don't know which two to invite?" Someone asked.

"Then please...... Miss Lan Cuiping and Miss Zhao Zhiying! ”

And so it was...... Shangguan Qingyue held her chin with her hand, and her expression was slightly awe-inspiring. I'm not afraid of no good things, I'm afraid of no good people. Sun Yu's expression, no matter how you look at it, has a malicious look, I'm afraid it's to rectify Lan Cuiping.

"Miss Lan and Miss Zhao's dancing skills are among the best in Canglang, I believe they must have excellent performances, right?"

"Yes!" The stage was instigated, and the audience also responded positively.

Seeing that she couldn't hide anymore, Lan Cuiping finally got up and took the stage.

"Thanks to everyone's love, Cuiping's dance is barely average, but if it is compared to Miss Shangguan, it is much inferior......" said, Lan Cuiping's eyes fell on Shangguan Qingyue, who was drinking tea with his eyes down, and said with a smile, "It's better to invite Miss Shangguan to come up with you, so that we can feast our eyes!" ”

What the? Shangguan Qingyue just drank a sip of tea, and almost spit it out.

Don't play like this! The fragment in her mind just now, obviously without herself, what kind of trouble is this?

"Okay...... Miss Shangguan will give her face! Everyone naturally welcomed them when they heard this, and they were busy urging Shangguan Qingyue to take the stage.

Looking straight at Lan Cuiping with an unpredictable expression on the stage, Shangguan Qingyue paused, pursed his lips and smiled, "Accompany ......"

She wants to see, including Lan Cuiping, what the hell these women can make tonight.

In a short time, the dance music on the stage has already begun.

At this moment, following the light and cheerful sound of the piano, the three people who had changed their dance costumes slowly came out. The water sleeves will be thrown away, and countless petals will flutter and fall from the sky, one by one, as if pulling out wisps of fragrant fragrance......

The people in the audience, especially the men present, were fascinated by it, and it was really beautiful. If there is this beauty on his side, what more can the husband ask for?

Just as they were intoxicated, suddenly, the guqin music on the stage came to an abrupt end...... Immediately after, a beautiful sound of the emerald flute gradually rose.

Tossing and turning, the breeze drove the clothes of the three fairies, making them look just like the Lingfei Swallow! And the next moment, the sound of the flute began to speed up again, and the bodies and long sleeves of the three of them rotated faster and faster with its rhythm, as if flying freely on the surface of the streamer, giving people a sense of ethereal and hazy......

At this moment, Zhao Zhiying's steps and the rhythm of the music were moving in the direction of Shangguan Qingyue in the middle, and Lan Cuiping opposite her also approached her when she saw this.

Three people meet in the center of the stage. However, when they should have passed each other, Zhao Zhiying slammed into Lan Cuiping, Lan Cuiping pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, and immediately turned her body, pushing Shangguan Qingyue to the front.

Shangguan Qingyue sneered, and was not ambiguous, seeing that Lan Cuiping deliberately took himself to the top bag, so he hurriedly dodged and at the same time, his feet blatantly hooked Lan Cuiping's ankle......

So, everyone first heard the sound of "stabbing", and then, they saw that Lan Cuiping also fell on Zhao Zhiying in front of him without any image due to the unstable center of gravity, and both of them fell on the table......

"Ahh
