On June 28, Su Cheng'an was 16 years old.

The second lady originally wanted to make this birthday banquet bigger, firstly, to show her ability, and secondly, to show her status in the Hou Mansion.

To be honest, the status of Qihou Mansion in the capital is quite embarrassing, of course, it is mainly related to the noble concubine more than ten years ago, that noble concubine was calculated to be pregnant with a disaster star and was expelled from the palace, and this noble concubine has a great relationship with Qihou Mansion, and Qi Hou was almost involved. After that, the old lady worked hard and spent most of the furniture to settle the matter, although Qi Hou was not involved, but because he was hated by the queen's party, he could not be reused.

Although the relationship between the Marquis of Qi and the queen has eased a lot because of the wife of the Marquis of Qi and the Liu family, but in the government, he was still suppressed by the Marquis of Xuanyuan from time to time, so he especially relied on the Liu family.

It wasn't until the past two years that Qi Hou was valued by His Majesty because of his outstanding ability and was promoted a few levels, which slowly stopped being restrained by the Liu family, but because of the prince, Xuanyuan Hou was in the sky, and in the previous succession, Qi Hou's attitude was ambiguous, which made Xuanyuan Hou very angry, so Xuanyuan Hou's people were not close to Qi Hou, and those who supported the second prince regarded Qi Hou as *, and they didn't dare to get too close.

Those magnates want to say that in the past, a concubine in Qihou Mansion celebrated her birthday, and they didn't even prepare a gift, let alone be a guest, but now the identity of the fifth lady of this concubine is not as good as in the past, whether it is because of curiosity, or because of the face of Ziwei Palace, there are still many people who come to attend, of course, this does not include those who stand at the top.

Early in the morning, before dawn, Su Tang'an was pulled up by Qing'er to freshen up and dress up, and she wanted to dress up her young lady beautifully, so glamorous.

Su Cheng'an glanced at the clothes Qing'er had chosen, and said with a smile: "These clothes are too gorgeous, if they are not stunning, they are difficult to suppress, and if you wear them rashly, it will only make people feel gaudy!

"Then Miss pick out the jewelry!" Qing'er hurriedly said.

Su Cheng'an glanced at it and said with a smile: "It's just my birthday today, and it's not a marriage, these are too grand, you need to pick up two hostas, and when Jin Bu shakes something, it won't be necessary for the time being!"

"How can Miss be outstanding if she is dressed so plainly?" Qing'er asked with a pouting of disapproval.

Su Tang'an pointed to his face and asked, "In all fairness, is this face of your young lady drifting?"

"Beautiful!" Qing'er nodded sincerely.

"Beautiful! At most, it's just beautiful!" Su Cheng'an said, "What about people, the most important thing is to have a clear understanding, the sisters of the Lun Zi Hou Mansion are stronger than me, how can they not dress themselves well at such a grand event today?

"It sounds quite reasonable, then let's follow what Miss said, it's called the opposite!" Qing'er laughed, "But in Qing'er's eyes, Miss is the best-looking, much better than Miss San!"

After noon, the guests arrived one after another, because the weather was a little hot, so the group of people in the garden to escape the heat. The garden was originally green, fat, red and thin, but a lot of girls poured in at once, and the laughter like silver bells spread melodiously, and the figures of women of the same age as flowers shuttled, calling that the garden was more lively than when the flowers were in full bloom in spring.

The space in the pavilion is not large, and it can accommodate more than ten people, of course, all of whom are of higher status among these people. These people are probably divided into three waves, one is the side branch relatives of the Hou Mansion, when they were young, they bullied Su Cheng'an, a stupid girl, because they knew her details, even if they changed now, they still looked down on Su Cheng'an in their hearts, not to mention that Su Chengle was present, they always looked at Su Chengle's face and did things, Su Chengle was estranged from this sister, they naturally wouldn't get too close, just three or five people chatting together, and their eyes glanced at Su Cheng'an from time to time.

The other wave is a few of them with more noble statuses, and the people they usually associate with are either the county lord or the daughter of the minister who holds real power, Su Tang'an is just a concubine, and they don't look down on it.

Among them, the leisurely county lord is the most, she originally wanted to worship under Gong You's door, but Gong You didn't accept it, she didn't expect that only a few days later, he actually accepted another woman as a disciple, she was not angry, and naturally wanted to see what this heavenly girl was capable of, so that Gong You could break the principle.

But when I saw it today, the appearance was ordinary, and there was nothing outstanding, so I was naturally unhappy in my heart, and the people around me also knew this relationship, although I came to congratulate the fifth lady on her birthday, in the end I still had to look at the face of the county lord, at this time, I was close to Su Cheng'an, didn't I hit the county lord's face?

The other wave was those whose fathers had lower official ranks, or who worshiped Ziwei Palace, and they couldn't blend in with the other two lineups, so they had to gather around Su Cheng'an.

The leisurely county lord seemed to remember something funny, laughed, and the people next to her also laughed, she beckoned Su Chengle on the side again, and the two whispered and chatted for a while, and laughed at the same time, and the people next to him laughed in agreement, and from time to time someone looked at Su Cheng'an with ambiguous eyes.

The young ladies around Su Cheng'an were all uncomfortable, this was originally her birthday, but she was left out in the cold.

"Yo, what are you laughing at?"

It wasn't loud, but everyone who happened to be here could hear it clearly, and everyone turned their heads to look at it.

I saw a woman in a long white dress coming, this person was not someone else but the eldest grandson Huiqing, she had a gentle smile on her face, walked straight towards Su Cheng'an, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry I'm late, happy birthday!"

"It's best if you can come!" Su Juan said while holding her hand, "It's a big day outside, take a break!"

"Okay!" "Okay!" Eldest Sun Huiqing sat down next to Su Ju'an, glanced at the leisurely county lord on the side, and asked, "I just saw that the county lord was smiling the most happily, I don't know what interesting things he was talking about, tell me about it!"

"It's nothing!" "It's nothing!" the leisurely county lord retracted two points, "It's just that this Heavenly Maiden is really a wonderful person, I have just heard a lot of things about her before, it is really hilarious, and I don't know what Gong You Zhenren thinks, this Heavenly Maiden is related to the face of Ziwei Palace, he actually chose such a person, and he is not afraid of making people laugh!"

She glanced at Su Cheng'an with disdain, and said: "It is said that the fifth miss was in the White Horse Temple before, because she touched the buttocks of Gongyou Zhenren, so Gongyou Zhenren took a look at her more, and then collided with Zhenren on the street, so Zhenren accepted her as an apprentice, but it was really hard work, if I have the shameless strength of Fifth Miss, I am afraid that I will already worship under the gate of Ziwei Palace at this time!"

"Just a few words from you, you are not worthy of being a disciple of Master!" Su Cheng'an's face turned cold, "Master is a master, but in his eyes, he is such a vulgar person, since he is so unbearable, what is the reason why the county lord wants to worship him as a teacher?" The county lord is the proud daughter of the sky, and he should be more cautious in his words and deeds, and set an example for us, you yourself said that as a heavenly maiden, it represents the face of Ziwei Palace, but you have repeatedly insulted me, not only insulting me, but also insulting the master, insulting Ziwei Palace, how have you ever put Ziwei Palace in your eyes? Since you don't look down on Ziwei Palace, then worshipping Ziwei Palace is just nonsense!"

"You!" The leisurely county lord didn't expect Su Tang'an to dare to fight back, and was choked, "This county lord also has your turn to teach you a lesson!

Su Chengle smiled coldly on the side: "The county lord doesn't know, she is now a heavenly girl, who else will be in her eyes, on weekdays, my mother and I can't get into her eyes at all, so we can bear it, I didn't expect that now she doesn't even put the county lord in her eyes, in a few days, I really don't know how much she will swell!"

"Today is for the sake of the Ziwei Palace, and the county lord wants to teach you a lesson, otherwise you really don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick!" said the county lord with a cold face.

"The county lord is a relative of the emperor, as long as he is not happy in his heart, he can teach anyone a lesson, but what did Tang An do wrong?" Su Tang An was fearless, and said lightly, "No matter how bad Tang An is, he is also the daughter of Qi Hou, a disciple of Gong You Zhenren, not to mention that today is Tang An's birthday, Tang An knows that it is not as expensive as the county lord, if Tang An does something wrong, Tang An is willing to accept the punishment, and his brows will not wrinkle, but Tang An is not a tool for the county lord to be angry, please also ask the county lord to understand!"

"Isn't it okay for you to offend the county lord?" said the county lord in a cold voice, "Repeatedly contradicting the county lord until the royal family is majestic, if it is like this today, in the future, everyone will not take the royal family in the eyes of you like you, and the majesty of the royal family will be gone!"

"In the eyes of the county lord, but in the eyes of the county lord, the county lord has repeatedly bullied the daughters of his subordinates by virtue of his royal status, but he doesn't know whether the soldiers can be killed or not humiliated? Your Majesty has always been generous to others, but also sympathetic to the subjects, so the subjects of the whole country respect the royal family, the majesty of the royal family, if the county lord is so arrogant is to maintain the majesty of the royal family, I am afraid that it is contrary to Your Majesty's philosophy, who is ruining the majesty and reputation of the royal family?" Su Tang'an said lightly without hurrying.
