Chapter 69: The Night Banquet in Hibiscus Garden

An ordinary-looking carriage was slowly driving towards Qixiamen in the south of Chang'an City, and in the carriage were the three brothers and sisters of the Lu family who rushed to Furong Garden to attend the banquet.

Lu Zhi was telling the two of them about the precautions for entering the banquet, Lu Jun interjected two sentences from time to time, and Yi Yu sat beside Lu Zhi obediently, letting him say a word, and he would answer a sentence.

For Lu Zhi, Yu Yu now has a little more pity while respecting her, as long as she thinks of the past told by the Lu family, it is difficult for her to suppress the faint sourness in her heart.

Lu Zhi didn't know at this time that Lu had told Yu everything about the year, and when he saw her blinking at him with big eyes, he reached out and pinched her little face in confusion.

Because the princess's birthday banquet would not end until late at night, she and the Lu family had already discussed a few days ago, after the banquet, she would stay in Chang'an City for the night, and then go home with Lu Zhi and Lu Jun on the second day, and then talk openly and honestly with the two brothers about the father.

The three brothers and sisters got off the bus in Quchifang North and walked onto the Yanying Bridge, and along the way, Lu Zhi saw several familiar faces, and they all simply nodded and greeted. Walking across the long Yanying Bridge, under the guidance of the people of Qiaotou Palace, they passed through several Huayuan Xiang Pavilion all the way to the place where the princess was entertained - Fang Lin Yuan.

At this time, it is already the beginning of the Chinese lanterns, as soon as the jade enters the garden, the surrounding environment changes abruptly, on both sides of a large road in front of you, hundreds of colorful lotus lamps are hung far away, the sound of music and singing is faint in the ears, and then go forward, the tip of the nose gradually has a sultry incense, and hear the laughter of men and women mixed with the music.

Until stepping on the red carpet and walking up dozens of steps, the sound of music and laughter in my ears gradually became clear, and the scene that emerged in front of me was extremely luxurious.

On both sides of the four rows of banquets are all kinds of fish, meat, vegetables and fruits, every three seats between the banquets there is a half-person high thin painted column, a big night pearl on the fist, the open-air banquet is full of criss-crossing high-quality red yarn, there is a music platform in the west of the seat, and the music of the ding fairy music flows out like spring water.

The banquet was nearly full, and the guests either exchanged their heads with their neighbors, or got up to toast and talk to other seats, and the powder-made palace lady holding all kinds of delicacies hung her head back and forth in the banquet.

At a glance, Yi Yu saw the girl sitting on the chair seat in the north, wearing a gorgeous palace dress of magenta and gold to set off her very delicate, and a girl in a gorgeous dress sat beside her, one was sitting upright and shaking the jade cup, and the other was leaning into the ear of the palace girl to say something.

***

Most of the people invited to Gao Yang's banquet were the students of the current Taixue Pavilion, all of them were fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys and girls, and there were also a few teachers present, but they were all far apart.

handed over the gift he brought to the little eunuch who greeted him, and he found a seat for the three of them according to Lu Zhi's post, but he didn't expect that it was the second seat on the left side of the chairman's seat, and it was only ten steps away from Gao Yang, Lu Zhi and Yu Yu were a little surprised, and even Lu Jun frowned slightly.

Gao Yang, who was lazily responding to Chai Tianwei, saw the Lu family brothers who were about to enter the table, and immediately shouted: "Brother Zhi! ”

For a while, the guests were full of guests, and they all looked at the three brothers and sisters who had just entered the banquet.

After all, it is the birthday banquet of the princess, as civilians, they are not too simple, the two brothers are dressed in the same style of different colors of dark clothes made of fine silk fabrics, and the inlays on the cuffs of the placket are embroidered by the Lu family.

Many of the female guests knew the two brothers, and when they saw their different dresses tonight, many of them were blushing, and some of them were bold, and they even laughed and talked with the little sisters next to them.

Yi Yu is a little cleaner than the gorgeously dressed women here, her hair is elegantly coiled in a butterfly bun, and only a bead hairpin from the butterfly blue jewelry is pinned to the bun, and the royal blue butterfly just shows the side of her ear, reflecting the silver beaded butterfly earrings on her white little ear.

Wearing a goose yellow plain pleated long skirt, with narrow sleeves and green short undergarments, a blue light gauze shawl is loosely placed at the crook of her arm, which sets off her delicate figure.

Hearing Gao Yang's shout, Yi Yu turned to look, just in time for a gust of breeze to hit, the long blue gauze shawl was gently held up, the butterfly wings on the earlobe crossed a silver light in the air, and the soft light of the night pearl on the colored pillar on her side was reflected on her pretty little face, and in an instant, her figure was like a butterfly shadow across the hearts of many people present.

This scene fell in Gao Yang's eyes, it was not so tasteful, she had never seen Yiyu, although she always heard Lu Jun boast in front of her, her impression of Yiyu was only a small peasant girl with a beautiful face and a few big characters.

When she invited the Lu brothers before, she brought their sister by the way, but it was just a whim for her, she had long forgotten about it when she was crazy for a few days, and now when she saw the delicate girl next to the two brothers, she thought of such a thing.

Looking at Yi Yu, whose eyebrows and eyes were still immature and could not hide her delicate appearance, thinking of Lu Junyan's praise that was still in her ears, a wave of dissatisfaction rose in the heart of the girl Gao Yang, especially the pair of crystal eyes that Yu looked back at her, but there was no respect at all, just so faint, a slight smile, as if she was not looking at her at the moment, a princess, but like an ordinary stranger.

Feeling uncomfortable, Gao Yang's face was naturally difficult to look at, Lu Jun and Lu Zhi paused for a moment when they heard her cry and then walked over, stopped in front of Gao Yang's seat and bowed to her lightly, and each said two words of congratulations.

Gao Yang, who had a cold little face, raised his eyes and glanced at them, but he looked at the Yu Yu who was standing with her head hanging behind the two of them, and saw that she didn't even come up to say a word of congratulations, and even implemented her disrespectful sin in her heart.

If Yi Yu knew what Gao Yang was thinking at the moment, she would definitely cry out for wrongdoing, before coming here, Lu Zhi specially explained that she didn't have to make a sound, and everything was left to the two brothers, so she stood behind them without saying a word, but she didn't want to be looked down upon by Gao Yang so simply.

Lu Zhi looked up and saw the yin on Gao Yang's face, and saw the direction she was looking at, he chuckled in his heart, and before he had time to think about it, he heard that Gao Yang had already sneered and opened his mouth:

"Hiding behind you is that Xiaoyu, I always hear Lu Jun brag on weekdays, why did she come here today, but she hid her head and showed her tail, is she unsightly, or doesn't want to see the palace?"

Hearing Gao Yang call himself "Bengong", even the sluggish Lu Jun sensed the other party's bad mood, and subconsciously stood beside Lu Zhi, covering the jade more tightly.

I didn't think that this move would make Gao Yang angry all of a sudden, and she slammed the glass of wine in her hand out, which landed at Lu Jun's feet, and the wine instantly splashed on Lu Jun's clothes.

The banquet that was still staggered just now suddenly became silent, Xixi's musicians stopped beating, and the palace maids and eunuchs who served the dishes also knelt on the ground. Gao Yang's temper has been taught by many people here, even if they haven't seen it with their own eyes, they have heard it said, and all kinds of eyes are on the three brothers and sisters standing in front of the chairmanship, some sympathize, some gloat, and some watch the show.

Yi Yu looked down at the jade cup that rolled down from Lu Jun's feet to him, the first reflection was that this cup was really strong, and the second reflection was inexplicable. She naturally didn't know Gao Yang's psychology, although she had heard from her two brothers that this person was rude, willful, irritable and violent, but only because Lu Jun had quarreled with her many times but was unharmed, Yu Yu subconsciously didn't think much of her badly, but now she looks at it, but her heart is tight.

Gao Yang's somewhat sharp voice sounded in this silence: "Since you don't want to see people, what's the use of making faces, come people-"

Just after Gao Yang said "What's the use of asking for face", the three brothers and sisters of the Lu family all looked tense and had a bad heart. didn't want to wait for Gao Yang to finish speaking, but another voice sounded in the middle of the banquet, interrupting the order she hadn't blurted out yet.

"It's just that I'm late, it turns out that there are already three people who have been punished for being late."

Everyone looked at the person who spoke up, and who was so bold in their hearts dared to interject Gao Yang's words, and the three brothers and sisters also looked back when they heard the sound.

I saw a person stepping on the last step with one hand, slowly walking into the banquet, wearing a white background gilt silver silk shirt, a purple jade cloud pattern silver belt with a waist buckle, a Ganoderma lucidum bamboo hosta, a face like a crown of jade, a slender figure, a chic posture, and a beautiful quality.

Yi Yu quietly watched as this person approached with a smile under the light of a lotus lamp, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
