Chapter 263: Chinese New Year's Eve Palace Banquet (3)

The prince sighed and lowered his eyelashes.

Next, Shen Mingjiao and the female officials were feasted their eyes and enjoyed a visual feast.

The noble girls who can come here are not badly born, they have received the most top-notch education since they were children, and they are carefully selected by the family, so their appearance and talent are naturally not bad. In order to attract the attention of the emperor and the crown prince, these girls can be described as eight immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers.

Needless to say, there is even a daughter of a military general from Qin, in order to attract attention, he actually found another way, set up a drum on the main hall, and twisted Yangge, which caused everyone, including the emperor, to laugh. It's a pity that the prince of the party is still hanging his eyes and not moving like a mountain.

At this time, it was the turn of Jiang Xueru, the daughter of Master Jiang, to come on the stage, only to see her wearing a water-blue fairy dress, holding a lyre in her hand, stepping up the steps, and then slowly sat down, burning incense with her hands, and her every move was calm and elegant. aroused many people secretly admired.

Lu Jingshu pursed her lips disdainfully: "It's really fake Qinggao!" ”

Cui Lingling stared at Jiang Xueru's back for a while, and blinked suspiciously:

"How do I feel, at first glance, this Jiang girl gives me an inexplicable sense of familiarity!"

Shen Mingjiao ate a plate of dim sum that the queen had brought her, and said without raising her head: "You read it right, if you don't look at your face, just looking at your mannerisms and actions, it is a little similar to Su Tian." ”

She raised her eyebrows meaninglessly: "This Jiang girl has a heart!" ”

Cui Lingling heard her say this, looked at it carefully, and found that it was really quite similar.

Jiang Xueru is playing (Pingsha Falling Geese), she has obviously worked hard, her fingering is skillful, and the artistic conception is in place, which makes people seem to see the quiet and vast twilight on the autumn river in the troubled times.

Sure enough, when the prince heard this song, he raised his head suddenly, and his eyes that were originally dead suddenly lit up. As she stared at the girl who was sitting quietly in the hall, her eyes were in a trance.

After the song, many people praised Jiang Xueru again and again, and the emperor glanced at the prince, smiled and praised a few words about Master Jiang's good way of teaching her daughter.

The next Lord Jiang was humble again and again, but a touch of joy quickly crossed his eyes, it seems that he made the right move!

Lu Jingshu looked at everyone praising the fake Jiang Xueru, and suddenly clenched her whip in anger. was about to stand up and perform a show to kill the other party's majesty,

Princess Su, who hadn't spoken to her all this time, suddenly turned her head to look over and asked, "Miss Lu is also the same as the ladies here, and she has thoughts about the prince?" ”

Lu Jingshu was stunned and subconsciously shook her head. "What prince? I don't know him! I just can't get used to Jiang Xueru, who is obviously very proud, but she has to pretend not to care! ”

Shen Mingjiao asked, "Then Miss Lu should know what the Holy Lord's intention is for today's palace banquet?" ”

Lu Jingshu nodded inexplicably: "I know!" The sisters-in-law said that this palace banquet Shengshang wanted to choose the crown princess for the crown prince. ”

She was naturally not interested in this, and her mother and sister-in-law got together to chat, often saying that the palace was a place where people eat people and did not spit out bones......

She's just too bored at home to join in the fun.

Shen Mingjiao looked at her with a smile: "Then I have to remind you." A good-looking girl like you, if you perform, it is very likely that the saint will let you marry the prince as soon as she is happy because of your good performance. Trapped in the palace forever! ”

If others listen to these childish words, which are full of loopholes, they will definitely scoff at them. However, this is taken for granted by Lu Jingshu, who has been praised by her sister-in-law and brothers since she was a child.

As soon as I thought of performing a show to marry the prince, I had to go into the place where the sisters-in-law said that eating people and not spitting out bones,

Immediately shrunk his neck,

But looking at Jiang Xueru, who was admired by others, she was a little unwilling.

Shen Mingjiao followed her line of sight, and waved her hand indifferently: "Don't worry, the Holy Lord will definitely not look down on her, and when the time comes, she won't have to whip herself, and she will be difficult to collapse!" ”

Lu Jingshu thought about her words, and actually felt that it made sense, looking at Jiang Xueru's white lotus face, she was suddenly not so angry.

At this point, the show came to an end, and the queen suggested that everyone should rest on their own or go for a walk in the garden.

Everyone knew that this was to create an opportunity for the prince and the nobles to look at each other.

As soon as the emperor and queen left, Mrs. Lu hurriedly walked over, and after a trembling salute with Shen Mingjiao, she pulled the reluctant Lu Jingshu away.

Cui Lingling pouted: "These people are really!" It's like you're going to eat her girl! ”

Shen Mingjiao stood up nonchalantly, "It's not all, Miss Lu's temperament is a little coquettish and impulsive, and my reputation outside is also not good, Mrs. Lu should be afraid that Miss Lu will make trouble with me if she doesn't agree with her." ”

Cui Lingling asked curiously, "You seem to be very protective of this Miss Lu?" ”

"It's not much maintenance, but I can't bear to let a good girl jump into the fire pit."

Lu Jingshu's father is a general of Zheng Erpin, and there are seven brothers on him, as an old woman, she naturally grew up with a lot of pets.

In addition, the Lu family, as a family of military generals, does not have some rules and regulations of the noble family, so Lu Jingshu's personality is a little pampered and willful.

Therefore, even if Lu Jingshu's family background and appearance are not bad, no one dares to come to the door to propose marriage.

In his previous life, until three years later, he saw that his daughter had passed the marriageable age, but he did not get married. General Lu recruited a good-looking son-in-law for his daughter.

How do you know that within two years of marriage, the son-in-law secretly set up an outer room outside,

After Lu Jingshu learned about it, he directly led someone to break the legs of the son-in-law who came to the door, and then the Lu family swept people out of the house.

This incident was in an uproar at the time, and everyone was saying that Lu Jingshu was fierce and mean,

Lu Jingshu didn't care, she set up a female household with her daughter alone, and several brothers took care of her, and her life was quite good.

Although this seems a bit deviant to ordinary people, Shen Mingjiao feels that she lives more comfortably than many women.

She once mentioned it when she heard the queen's gossip, saying that Jing and Emperor had originally thought of letting the prince marry Lu Jingshu as his wife, saying that the prince's personality was too gentle, and the girls of the Lu family just complemented each other. It's a pity that the prince only had Su Tian in his heart at that time.

But since Emperor Jing and Emperor Jing had this intention, if Lu Jingshu rashly stepped forward, it was difficult to guarantee that Emperor Jing and Emperor would not have this idea again.

Although Lu Jingshu is a little pampered, her nature is not bad, but the prince and her are by no means lovely.

The two of them went out of the front hall and went around to the imperial garden, where a little eunuch winked at Shen Mingjiao.

Shen Mingjiao followed the little eunuch and came to a quiet pavilion. As expected, Feng Shuo was reading a book in the pavilion at this time, and Qin Yan was standing next to him.

Shen Mingjiao stepped into the gazebo, looked at the little guy's light eyebrows, and couldn't help but reach out and rub his hair:

"How are you doing in the palace?"

In the past few months of getting along, Feng Shuo has become accustomed to her actions, but he tilted his head uncomfortably.

"It's good, the imperial grandmother is very good to me, the imperial grandfather knows a lot of things, I always benefit a lot from chatting with him. There is also the gentleman of Chongbunkan, and I feel like I can learn a lot from them. ”

looked at her eyes that suddenly lit up when she mentioned reading and studying. Shen Mingjiao reached out to scratch the little guy's nose funny, but was flexibly dodged by the other party.

Shen Mingjiao withdrew her hand regretfully: "Since you like to read, then stay in the palace and read hard." ”

The two sat in the pavilion for a while, chatting with each other, mainly Shen Mingjiao was talking, and Feng Shuo replied concisely and neatly.

Shen Mingjiao was helpless, but his current appearance has improved a lot compared to his previous life, and his face is also a little boyish.

She had nothing to do lately, and she had read all the books that Doctor Wen had given her, and as she studied further, she gradually became serious from being casual at the beginning.

Xu is because she is hypnotic, so she has an instinctive affinity for the treatment of mental illness.

She even went to the library in the house to find some similar books, but unfortunately, there are too few doctors in this world who can cure people's hearts and spirits.

Judging from the knowledge she has learned now, Feng Shuo's situation is obviously a psychological illness. If left unchecked, it may lead to misanthropy and other emotions after a long time, which is very dangerous.

She also knew that this kind of thing had to be done gradually, some injuries from her childhood had already been done, and it was impossible to let Feng Shuo have the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of a normal child.

On the other side, the moment Qin Yan appeared with Cui Lingling, a pair of eyes involuntarily stuck to her.

Cui Lingling turned his face away from looking at him, and said to Shen Mingjiao, "Go to the garden to breathe", and then simply turned around and walked forward, as if he hadn't seen Qin Yan at all.

Qin Yan and Shen Mingjiao nodded, then strode forward and grabbed Cui Lingling's wrist, "Lingling, let's talk, okay?" ”

"Let it go."

Cui Lingling coldly wanted to shake off his hand, but Qin Yan held it tightly.

Shen Mingjiao looked at the backs of the two of them pulling away, and asked Feng Shuo suspiciously: "I just took a look, the little grandfather seems to be in a good mood?" ”

Feng Shuo nodded and said like a little adult: "Because I helped my uncle untie the knot." ”

Shen Mingjiao raised her eyebrows, and didn't ask him how he knew where Qin Yan's heart knot was, anyway, with the degree of rebellion in this child's brain, she wouldn't be surprised to do anything!

She only said: "In this way, Qin Yan has already determined that the incident has nothing to do with the imperial brother. ”

At the mention of this, what suddenly came to her mind? Suddenly turned his head to look at Feng Shuo, and asked in a calm tone as much as possible, "What dangers have you encountered in the palace recently?" ”
