Lin Feiqian hurriedly walked over, and gently helped Concubine Li rub her shoulders: "The concubine has worked hard, I heard that during this time, the emperor's mood is also extremely bad, and my father has also been reprimanded many times in the court, although the mother is not involved in the court, but it is also extremely hard to think about it." ”

Concubine Li sighed and nodded, a trace of impatience flashed in her eyes, the reason why the emperor was in a bad mood was mainly because of the things that happened in her palace before, Lin Feiyuan's words just now directly stepped on her pain point: "Yes, this palace is in the harem, but it can't make the emperor comfortable, it's really a mistake." ”

Lin Feiyuan suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly changed her words: "Niangniang helped take care of my affairs, she was very busy, and it was understandable that she couldn't take care of it for a while, in fact, I came this time because I wanted to discuss something with Niangniang." ”

"Huh? What's the matter with you? ”

"Niangniang also knows, Princess Yonghan said that she would choose a son-in-law in Da'an Country......"

Concubine Li was a little interested, and she was also extremely concerned about this matter: "Well, this palace knows, what good ideas do you have?" ”

"I can't talk about what a good idea is, but the emperor also knows about this matter, when Princess Zhaohua, Princess Anning, and Princess Anqing chose a son-in-law, the emperor held two civil and military tests, although this time it is a princess of another country, but it is also the respect of princesses, how can you let the princess choose it personally."

Concubine Li's eyes moved slightly: "What you said makes sense, it's just that this palace is just a harem concubine, if you want to summon the aspiring sons and daughters of each family, it is a private meeting with a foreign man, which is not appropriate." ”

"Niangniang wants to hold a flower-viewing banquet, you can ask the emperor for instructions, with him coming forward is naturally not a private man, moreover, although I Da'an country pays attention to etiquette, but so many people are there, men and women are not strict. The emperor is very concerned about Princess Yonghan's choice of son-in-law. Niangniang took the initiative to share her worries, and the emperor should be extremely happy. ”

Concubine Li was full of smiles, stretched out her hand to pull Lin Feiyuan in front of her, held her hand and said happily: "It's still thoughtful that you girl, this palace has been busy all this time." As he spoke, he took a gilded cloisonné jade bracelet off his wrist and put it on Lin Feiyuan's hand, "If you marry to Dayue Country in the future, you will also be the master of the house, it's okay these days, you just follow the palace, learn more things, and use them in the future." ”

"Yes, thank you." Lin Feiyuan was excited, and after sitting and talking to Concubine Li for another time, he got up and said goodbye with excitement.

It wasn't until she left the palace gate that she showed a happy smile on her face, she wanted to suppress Shen Ninghua's revenge for the humiliation, but she couldn't find a chance because she couldn't contact her, and now she can enter the palace to help Concubine Li, so she has a chance to do it.

In the Changqiu Palace, the third prince walked out from behind the screen, and when he saw Lin Feiyuan leaving, he couldn't help but look at Concubine Li with some doubts: "Mother, I mentioned to you before, with the help of this flower-viewing banquet, some young talents were invited to participate, didn't you also reprimand your son, why did your cousin agree to mention it?" ”

Concubine Li turned her head and glanced at him: "The mother concubine has already told you that you have to think more about things when you encounter them, and you don't look at Lin Feiyuan and Bu Yonghan, which one is a fuel-efficient lamp, and their attitude of wanting to suppress Princess Zhaohua has been extremely obvious." It's okay for me to propose a flower-viewing banquet, but if something happens to them at my banquet, won't it make the emperor even more disgusted with me? ”

The third prince was stunned for a moment, and then understood: "Yes, the son was not thoughtful, and now that he has the proposal of his cousin, the mother concubine can boldly ask her father for advice." ”

"Yes, that way, no matter what happens, it's easy for us to get out of it. Jinyu, can you find out why he suddenly appeared in Lin Feiyuan's room on a rainy night last time? ”

"No, Erchen investigated very carefully, but he didn't find any clues."

Concubine Li frowned slightly: "Then don't investigate, this matter Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi are absolutely inseparable, these two people are thoughtful, they don't want you to check, you will definitely not find out anything." ”

"Mother, although after the last Xia Jingxin's incident, although my father is suspicious of them, but in the final analysis, the trust in the two of them is still above the sons, it makes people feel annoyed when they think about it, I, the prince who grew up by his side seriously, is not as good as a cheap breed and a righteous daughter who recognized him halfway, and the mother concubine still has to help me think of a way."

"Shut up! When will you get rid of this problem of speaking freely? "If that cheap sentence is heard, I don't know how much trouble it will cause.

The third prince was stunned, and lowered his head with some annoyance: "I'm too angry." ”

Concubine Li got up to help him tidy up his clothes, and said softly: "The plan is to think about it, but it is not in a hurry. You must know that there are not many people in the court who support Baili Junyi now, and what he did before has offended the courtiers, since we have no plan to deal with them for a while, then take this opportunity to win over those courtiers, your reputation outside has always been generous, this is your biggest advantage. ”

"Yes, mother, don't worry, I have already befriended the ministers according to your instructions, and now many people are on my side." The third prince had a confident smile on his face, and his eyes were full of ambition.

Concubine Li smiled with satisfaction: "The fourth child has a stubborn personality, he is only greedy for pleasure, the mother concubine can't count on him anymore, you have to fight hard, the queen mother will rely on you in the future." ”

The third prince knelt down in front of Concubine Li, and stretched out his hand to pull the hem of her skirt embroidered with a colorful phoenix: "Mother concubine, don't worry, the sons will definitely not live up to your expectations, once the sons and daughters achieve their wishes, you will be the most noble woman in the world." ”

Hearing this, Concubine Li smiled comfortably: "Your child has always been filial, and the mother concubine trusts you the most." ”

The mother and son looked at each other and smiled, and there was a harmonious color in the Changqiu Palace.

Seven days later, the flower-viewing banquet was held as scheduled. Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi entered the palace together, and as soon as they came to the gate of the palace, they saw many sons of the family dismounting and entering the palace, Shen Ninghua couldn't help but smile: "It seems that Concubine Li really cares about Princess Yonghan's choice of son-in-law, and she is busy with Zhang Luo now." ”

Baili Junyi held a folding fan and gently tapped his palm with the fan bone: "It's not just her who is anxious. ”

Because there are male guests, it is not appropriate for the banquet to be held in the Changqiu Palace, so the emperor specially allows the banquet to be held in the imperial garden. Because this banquet is to enjoy the flowers, in addition to the curtain screen arranged on the main seat, other places are only placed on the grass with low stools, and there are cushions on the ground, you can sit on the ground, and the flowers around are in full bloom, sitting on the grass is like being in a sea of flowers, which is particularly interesting and elegant.

As soon as Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi arrived, Bu Jinglan and Bu Yonghan also walked in.

Shen Ninghua wore a red Luo skirt, covered with a Tianshui blue embroidered orchid shirt, a gorgeous gold hairpin made of red gold pinned to her head, decorated with pink hibiscus stone carvings, her face was beautiful and smiling gently, obviously there were already dressed up ladies around her, but the first thing she saw when she came in still fell on her.

A trace of jealousy flashed in Bu Yonghan's eyes, and she praised her when she heard Bu Jinglan, saying that if the women of the family are compared to a hundred flowers, gorgeous and fragrant, each with its own appearance, then Shen Ninghua is a flower fairy, the king of a hundred flowers, and no one can match the country and the city. She didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that it is not an exaggeration.

She was the first to speak: "Princess Zhaohua is polite, I originally wanted to visit your mansion, but after thinking about it, I was afraid of rushing to the door to trouble the princess, so I didn't dare to come to the door." I also want to thank Concubine Li for setting up a banquet, otherwise I will have to wait a long time to see you. "The threshold of Prince Yi's Mansion is high, and even if I am a princess, it is not easy to meet me.

"The princess wants to see me and let people give a message or send a post, I don't like to go out to socialize, and I rarely go out on weekdays, usually in the house, if I know that Princess Yonghan intends to invite me to meet, I will naturally go happily." If you really want to see me, you can see me, don't say it as if I am high above and there is no one in the eyes.

Bu Yonghan's lips were full of smiles, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes: "I didn't understand the rules when I first arrived, and the Sixth Emperor Brother also told me many times, for fear that I would be impulsive and thoughtless, so I didn't dare to act rashly, for fear of making people laugh." "I'm afraid I've done something wrong and let you grab the handle, you're being too straightforward and aggressive.

"Although Da'an pays attention to etiquette, but etiquette can also tolerate friendship, the princess has just arrived, and we are naturally considerate." It's not as careful as you say.

Bu Yonghan gritted his teeth secretly, and the look of anger flashed in his eyes: If he is really sharp-toothed, he is willing to suffer at all.

"With the princess's words, I don't have to think so much, and I will definitely visit in the future."

Shen Ninghua smiled and nodded, not talking. She doesn't care about the subtleties, but does Bu Yonghan dare to be too rude? She is the princess of Da Yue Kingdom, if she really doesn't care about doing things, she will lose face.

A breeze blew, and a few petals fell on Shen Ninghua's hair. Baili Jun behind him couldn't help but smile gently, raised his hand to take down the petals between Shen Ninghua's hair, and held them in the palm of his hand, as if the petals contaminated with Shen Ninghua's breath were extremely precious: "Ninghua, let's sit on the side, we should be tired after standing for a long time." ”

Shen Ninghua turned his head and smiled slightly: "Okay." ”

The two walked hand in hand to a table and sat on the side, in addition to snacks and tea on the table, there was also a pair of chess pieces, and the two of them began to play chess one by one, ignoring Bu Yonghan's provocation.

Bu Jinglan watched Bu Yonghan lose coldly, and found a place to sit down with a sneer. The anger in Bu Yonghan's eyes dissipated little by little, and was replaced by a sober and calm: Shen Ninghua is really not so easy to deal with, the king of flowers? That beautiful appearance Baili Junyi likes it, and other people naturally yearn for it in their hearts, there are so many young talents in the banquet, it is normal for some people to covet it, hum......
