Chapter 81: The Flower Hall is sneering at the guests
Unexpectedly, the Shen family would plan and simply hold a banquet, which was originally a happy event for her, but it became a happy event for the Duke of Jin.
There is no reason to go out with the congratulatory gifts that gave her gifts at the beginning, but this Shen family has a banquet, and there is naturally no reason to come empty-handed.
Those things had to go into the Shen family's treasury.
Not only that, Shen Chongmao also specially invited some people who were close to him in the imperial court, and these people naturally said that they were in the name of congratulating the county lord of Qinghe, but in fact they were giving Shen Chongmao face, and the things they sent naturally went into the Shen family's treasury.
If it weren't for these advances, the eldest lady would only be afraid that she would be uncomfortable in her heart, why should she be busy with other people's affairs.
Hua Zhen changed her clothes with Aunt Zhou, broke her hair, and re-combed it into a bun that looked more dignified.
I saw Mama Cao coming in from outside, and saw Hua Zhen respectfully said: "County Lord, Prince and Princess Li are here, and she is still sitting in the flower hall with the county lord of Zhaoyang." The lady sent someone to invite the county lord over. ”
Hua Zhen nodded when she heard this, and waited for Aunt Zhou to plug in the hairpin, and then stood up: "It's good for Mama Cao to follow me today, you and Jiang Fu are staring at them, don't make a mistake, let Jiaoyue in the courtyard also take care of it, don't let some people who shouldn't enter come in, and cause trouble when the time comes." ”
Aunt Zhou nodded in response, and Hua Zhen left with Mama Cao.
When they arrived at the flower hall, it was already full of people, Prince Li and Princess Li were sitting on the top seat, and the eldest lady was sitting on the side, greeting with a smile on her face.
Even the second lady and several young ladies of the Shen family were also pulled out to greet the guests.
There was a woman sitting next to Prince Li, and Hua Zhen recognized it from a distance, but she couldn't help but sigh softly in her heart, but she was afraid that the person who came was not good.
It's not someone else who came, it's really the princess of Dongjun who doesn't show up much.
Because the relationship between the Queen Mother and Qin Guifei's mother's family, Dongjun Wangfu was originally a little delicate in Beijing, and they knew the many disadvantages of their relatives, and they had always been cautious for the Queen Mother and Qin Guifei, and rarely attended this kind of scene on weekdays.
In her previous life, Hua Zhen had never seen Princess Dongjun a few times.
For the Shen family's banquet, she is even more unlikely to appear, but it is rare to appear here today, and what else can it be.
I'm afraid that it will have nothing to do with Qin Huai sending her back to the house that day.
sighed softly in his heart, and then walked over.
The maid guarding the door saw it, and immediately reported in a loud voice: "The county lord of Qinghe has arrived." ”
Suddenly the room fell silent, and everyone looked at the door.
I saw Hua Zhen coming in from outside the door, wearing a light purple dress, with a long skirt dragging on the ground, and every step she took bloomed at her feet like a flower, which was very dazzling.
In addition, Hua Zhen is already extremely beautiful, and wearing this dress only makes people feel that the beauty is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off.
Prince Li and Princess Dongjun were even more stunned.
Looking at Hua Zhen in front of him, he only felt as if it was Queen Renxiao walking towards him, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Until Hua Zhen walked in front of them and blessed her body: "Zhen'er has seen Prince Li, Princess Dongjun. ”
Only then did the princess react and quickly raised her hand: "No need to be polite." ”
Saying that, he smiled and beckoned Hua Zhen to step forward, looked at Hua Zhen and sighed lightly: "I didn't think it when you left the capital, but I didn't expect to see you this year, and when I saw you again, I thought you looked very similar..."
Prince Li didn't finish her words, but everyone understood.
The princess of Dongjun on the side also nodded: "The county lord looks like her mother, and she is like seven or eight points with the queen, she has been staying by the queen's side, but she doesn't talk much, but now I haven't seen her for more than a year, and I see that this character has changed a lot from before." Maybe it's because of this temperament, it's more like the queen's mother. ”
Princess Dongjun didn't have so many scruples, looking at Hua Zhen's temperament from the bones of the door, she couldn't help but remind her of Queen Renxiao, especially her eyes, which were very similar to the original appearance of the queen.
I was grateful in my heart, thinking of my intention, and there was a little more helplessness in my eyes, if I looked at her, I still liked Hua Zhen. It's a pity that her identity can't help but be a little happy with her.
Hua Zhen stood to the side, with a shallow smile on her face.
Mrs. Shen looked at the people in this room as soon as she entered the door, and she was only one person in her eyes, and she was suddenly a little displeased.
Seeing Mama Cao standing behind Hua Zhen, she was still angry in her heart, but she couldn't say it, and she was even more uncomfortable, so she didn't speak.
When it happened, the second lady felt that something was not right, so she stepped forward with a smile and led Hua Zhen to greet the ladies, which could be regarded as introducing each other.
fell into the eyes of Prince and Princess Li, and couldn't help frowning: "Mrs. Jin Guo, although Zhen'er is now living in the Marquis Mansion of Jin Guo, how can she say that she is also the niece of Mrs. Jin Guo, she has been away from Beijing for such a long time, and everyone in Beijing is afraid that they may not all know her, shouldn't Mrs. Jin Guo lead her to recognize it all?"
Hearing this, the eldest lady's face suddenly became a little ugly, and when she saw that the second lady was leading Hua Zhen to introduce them one by one, she only felt that her heart was very angry.
It's not even pleasing to look at the second lady.
I felt that she was the one who hurt herself, and the princess said so.
I was annoyed and angry in my heart, but I didn't dare to be a little slack on my face, and hurriedly said: "I also looked at Zhen'er's dress today, which really looked like the second sister back then, so I looked a little stunned, and I forgot about it for a while." Fortunately, the second brother and sister are eye-catching, otherwise they would have to make you laugh. ”
The eldest lady said that she pushed the matter to the second lady, but she only said that she was distracted for a while and did not react, so she accused the second lady of deliberately stealing the limelight in front of others.
The second lady suddenly changed color when she heard this, but she looked at Hua Zhen beside her and endured it in a daze.
After waiting for a circle, Hua Zhen returned to the front of Prince Li, who looked at Hua Zhen and felt a little distressed.
Prince Li and Hua Yan have a very good relationship, the two families often come and go, and she and Hua Zhen are also familiar with each other.
In addition, Hua Zhen and the county lord of Zhaoyang are of the same age, but Hua Zhen is one year older, but she is much more miserable than the county lord of Zhaoyang. There is nothing to rely on except the emperor behind him, but the emperor has no time to take care of her at all times, and he will not ask a few words when he thinks about it. Prince Li looked at her appearance, and she couldn't help but feel distressed when she thought of this, so she didn't need Prince Li's orders, and she wanted to protect her a little.
At this moment, seeing her so slim, my heart was even more happy, and I took Hua Zhen's hand and said with a smile: "I just hate that I didn't have more sons, otherwise I would have asked him to marry you, such a knowledgeable woman is really likeable." ”
"No, the county lord of Qinghe grew up with Empress Renxiao, whether it is the number of etiquette or the side, it is absolutely not wrong. It's just a pity that the prince has already married the princess, otherwise it would be really right. However, although the prince married the princess, the second son of Prince Li's mansion heard that he had not yet married, and he looked at the age of Zhen'er, although he was a concubine, but Zhen'er's current identity was also a match, and it was also suitable, so the princess might as well think about it. The princess of Dongjun on the side continued to speak directly, but it was one sentence that made everyone's faces change.
