In the spring of the second year after the collapse of Zhou Renzong He Yan, Empress Dowager Wei finally agreed with the princes and ministers of Zongzheng Hall and the Political Affairs Hall to change the Yuan Chengde under the advice of the ministers.

In March of the first year of Chengde, when the grass grows and the warbler flies, the ban on drumming and feasting is finally canceled because of the national funeral, and the festival is imminent, although the officials and scholars are still not very convenient to enter and exit Pingkangfang to look for flowers and willows, the spring banquet of each house does not need to be taboo anymore, a year of silence, Chang'an City is again vigorous.

In the Daming Palace, most of the halls have also been replaced with colorful flags and brocade tents, only the green hall still does not see the slightest bright color, and now has become the only owner of the princess Tong'an who still has to mourn for her father, except for sitting and talking with the companions, no outsiders, and no more can not go to the banquet and have fun.

In the end, she is still an immature girl, although He Yan was worried and uneasy when he died, but Tong'an was originally estranged from his father, and after this year, he felt that there was not much difference from his father's life before his death.

Although it is a golden branch and jade leaf, it has never been really cherished when it is a child, and even once fell to the point of being careful to see people's eyes to survive, Tong'an has long been accustomed to cold silence, so it is not difficult to bear because of three years of mourning, even because of heavy mourning, even listening to teaching and learning has been suspended, and the original dozens of companions have also been sharply reduced to one-third, but in the end, Empress Dowager Wei has not forgotten this granddaughter and her blood kinship, and she is very loving and reserved for the companionship of the attendant who is good with Tong'an, and the little princess not only feels cold, On the contrary, I like that there are a lot less talk around me, and I am only interested in flattery and flattery.

Especially since the collapse of Renzong, Liu Shiyi Niang has become more important to the Queen Mother, and has become an indispensable person around the Queen Mother, so she has been ordered to live in the forbidden place for a long time, but she can only reunite with her family during the New Year's Festival, and because the princess had to suspend classes during the mourning, the Queen Mother was afraid that her granddaughter would lose her culture and education, and ordered Shi Niang to be careful to teach and study the history of poetry when she was idle, so in addition to Bing Pen, Shi Niang simply became the de facto teacher of Tong'an, and the two girls had many opportunities to get close to each other than before, and Tong'an felt more satisfied.

Since they met, Tong An actually felt that he seemed to have an indescribable affection for Eleven Niang, who was obviously of the same age, but he was willing to accept the teachings and persuasion of this girl who was only two years older than her, and laid a very strange friendship that could be called a teacher and a friend, and this kind of dependence and affection even surpassed her father and grandmother, only His Royal Highness the second uncle King Jin could be compared, and sometimes Tong An was also quite confused, I can't figure out why my unsociable and introverted self has this natural sense of closeness and convincing to Liu Shiniang, but he is also lazy to analyze, so he has to do whatever he wants.

On this day, seeing that Eleven Niang was going to leave the palace in the next day, and went back to the private house to spend time with her family, Tong'an was still "entangled", got up early in the morning, and handed over her homework to Eleven Niang for review, and then set up a chess game in a pavilion.

The other two companions on duty were also very excited, and they didn't even need the palace people to do anything, they personally held tea and served on the side, waiting for Eleven Niang and Tong'an to fight the winner.

Regarding this matter, Eleven Niang was a little helpless.

She is not good at chess, she has been in her previous life, and she is powerless in this life.

And the only remaining attendants around Her Royal Highness the princess are all born in the family, although most of them are concubines, and their talents are limited in epic painting, but when it comes to chess, they are far from being compared to her, the "old man" who has lived for twenty-six years in two lifetimes together - this is still excluding the five years that "itself" lived alone, sometimes Eleven Niang pinched her fingers and was surprised to find that she was already past the age of standing when she was serious!

Although her appearance is still in the prime of her life at this time, she often wakes up in the middle of the night because of her thoughts, and she still sometimes feels a sense of tightness that does not wait for me.

After all, if you haven't experienced rebirth, you are already a dry skeleton at this time.

In fact, because the mausoleum of Emperor Renzong is still under construction, her bones are indeed still in Rong'en Temple and continue to decay.

For most women these days, they are grandmothers when they get older......

The past is unbearable, and the years are unbearable......

Empress Pei is actually very willing to deceive herself, who said that I have reached the age of grandmother? It's still early to tell the spring.

So in fact, she is not tired of interacting with these boudoir girls, especially the naïve and naïve Tong'an, even though the attendants will have their own expectations due to the teaching of their parents, after all, at such an age, the city government has limited care, and there is no need to be careful when getting along.

So although she knew that these attendants were more or less jealous of her "excellence", she was very happy to see the famous Eleven Niang showing her clumsiness in the chess game, and she did not care at all, and was willing to be ridiculed by the public.

And the reason why Tong'an likes to play against Eleven Niang the most, of course, is also because the two are really "equal in strength", Tong'an is a beginner in chess, even if Eleven Niang wakes up and responds, it is very likely to lose.

It is a game of "teacher and student" every time, and almost nine times out of ten it is a happy ending.

The onlookers finally found their balance - because they often have to choose the princess to read, almost all of them will be paid special attention to by the patriarch of the clan, and they are often annoyed by the stumbling - Erbi Liu Shi Niang is older, and they are even enough to take on the role of the edict of the middle scholar, but your epic endowment is simply beyond the reach of the dust.

The attendants were hit a lot, but they regained face in the chess game, and they were greatly comforted.

And Liu Shi Niang is never good at winning by force, let the attendants make fun of her playing a bad hand of chess, not only did not think she was angry, but humbly asked for advice, so the waiter was very proud, and she could be proud after returning to the private house: "Even Liu Shi Niang is happy and convinced, please teach me a chess skill." ”

Princess Tong'an doesn't care much about winning or losing, in fact, it is a chess game, but it is just a cover for a few girls to "have fun".

So this last day, although it is a decisive game, it is a good conversation.

The gentleman's rule of watching chess without saying a word does not apply at all between several girls.

Later, even Tong'an and Eleven Niang cooked tea, and the two attendants simply took the lead.

While playing chess, he also talked about the shortcomings of his parents.

Li Jiuniang pressed a chess piece and took the lead in mentioning a person who was almost forgotten by Eleven Niang: "Ah Xie has been making jokes again recently." ”

Eleven Niang: "Again? Which one is Sanniang called Ah Xie, as if this person has often made jokes recently? ”

Li Jiuniang glared at first, and then said: "No wonder Ah Liu doesn't know, this year is forbidden to celebrate, don't say that Ah Liu often lives in the forbidden, so even I waited, maybe I haven't had a relationship with Ah Xie for a long time, but it was only after this year's Shangyuan Festival, because of the revival of the banquet, I heard and witnessed a lot of interesting things about her...... Which Xie do you say, is it difficult or Xie Sanniang? ”

Li Jiu's claim that Xie San is Xie Fei, when she was involved in the Shufei incident, she was expelled by the Queen Mother under the pretext of being expelled early, although it was not yet time, but in that year, she quickly agreed on family affairs, married a poor man, and has long been forgotten, Li Jiu's name A Xie can't be Xie Fei.

Another attendant, Yuan Shiniang, was more straightforward, and simply picked out the mystery: "It is the granddaughter of Xie Xiangyan, and she was originally Xie Wuniang who was also a waiter." ”

It turned out to be Xie Ying.

Eleven Niang's impression of her was suspended in the "serious illness is gradually healing", and she has not seen her in the palace for almost two years, not to mention that in the past year, because of the ban on banquets, the elders in the family have honestly not dared to go to the party, and the daughters of the boudoir have no chance to meet and chat, Eleven Niang can't help but secretly wonder, how long has it been since the ban was lifted, Xie Ying actually "again" made jokes, and became a topic of conversation after tea and dinner?

Tong An saw that her friend was at a loss, and she usually didn't like to discuss the rights and wrongs of others, but she couldn't help but say this time: "What is the temperament of Fifth Sister Xie, we know it in our hearts, so when I heard that she went to Auntie's birthday banquet with her relatives some time ago, she actually changed her previous taciturnity, took the initiative to get along with people without mentioning it, and flattered Auntie even more, I really can't believe it, but not only Ah Li and Ah Yuan, but the other four attendants also said that her temperament has changed greatly, so I believe it...... There are really strange things in the world that should be impressed by the three days. ”

Xie Ying actually took the initiative to flatter the eldest princess of Jin'an, and reached the point of gushing?! Even though Eleven Niang didn't pay special attention to Xie Ying, she couldn't help but be curious at this time, so she asked Li Jiuniang: "What are the interesting things?" ”

"First of all, this is the latest incident, is in the Ruyang palace to enjoy the spring banquet, that day is unfortunate, at noon drizzle, many of us are trapped in a pavilion, thinking that sitting idle is also boring, it is better to write a poem about the spring rain, by the Qinghua County to evaluate the best...... Your lord and Eleven Niang must also know that although Ah Xie used to be silent, and he always looked down on everyone with his eyes too high, but whenever there was a poem to compete, she had to fight for the top when she went back, but that day Ah Xie was a little interested, and in the end, it was the two little ladies of the Mao family who coaxed, and Ah Xie seemed to be able to avoid embarrassment and chant a song. ”

Li Jiuniang said this, but she only covered her lips and laughed at herself stealing fun, which caused Tong'an and Eleven Niang to be curious, until Eleven Niang promised to give her a painting, and then the mystery was revealed, learning from Xie Ying's pace and thinking that day, and chanted word by word: "Good rain knows the season, when spring happens...... Flower heavy brocade official city! ”

The last word was spit out, and he looked around at everyone with his chin tilted slightly, with a look of confidence waiting for everyone's admiration.

Yuan Shishi couldn't help but laugh at first, and pulled Li Jiuniang's sleeve: "This girl really learns well." ”

Tong'an was surprised: "This spring night rain was made by Du Zimei when she was in Chengdu, how can I thank the fifth sister ......"

It's just blatant plagiarism!

Eleven Niang is also silent, although Xie Ying is arrogant, her character is much stronger than Xie Fei, otherwise she would not be ashamed and depressed after framing her because of her selfishness, and Xie Ying has always been extremely conceited about her talent for poetry, and she is indeed very talented, how could she not know that Du Zimei's Spring Night Rain is familiar to everyone, and it is actually a grand raid?

"Eleven Niang has not been out of the palace recently, I must not know about the eldest princess banquet, that day I and my sisters just entered the table, I saw that A Xie was talking very happily with a number of guests, and I was so surprised that my eyes were about to fall to the ground, and I said that the ladies of the Ruan family, where could they enter the eyes of the prime minister's daughter in the past, I had never seen A Xie take care of them, but that day A Xie actually circled around Ruan Xiaoniang, and the meaning of friendship was obvious, but I don't know why, one by one Miss Ruan, we were all like falling into the clouds, I don't know what this 'Miss' means."

Don't say that Princess Tong'an doesn't know why, Eleven Niang, who has experienced two lifetimes, has not heard of the title of 'Miss', or Yuan Shisi Niang slapped Li Jiuniang: "I didn't see that day, several ladies of the Ruan family heard about this title, and they all glared at A Xie angrily, and then you didn't say that you asked Li Shimu for this title, and were reprimanded a lot, which shows that it is not a good word, so why bother to publicize it." ”

Li Jiuniang shook her head again and again: "My aunt has never explained what the title of 'Miss' means, Eleven Niang is well-informed, can you know the meaning?" ”

Eleven Niang shook her head: "It's strange to say, although Wu Niang is a little arrogant, she is just lazy to take care of people, but she has never done anything like hiding a knife in her laughter and being sarcastic and provocative." ”

"I don't think Axie intended to provoke, she really lost her brain because of that serious illness." Li Jiuniang said: "The eldest princess has always held a banquet without paying attention to the separate seats and sitting, on the same day, there was Xu Zhushu personally cut the fish, because A Xie did his best to flatter and flatter that day, the eldest princess couldn't help but be overjoyed, and specially invited her to sit at the same table, A Xie actually flattered Xu Zhushu, and praised his knife skills, but ...... opened his mouth and called Xu Zhushu 'adult', poor Wei Xianjun, his face turned white after hearing this sentence, and I couldn't help but laugh when I think about that scene now. ”

Eleven Niang: ......

Li Jiuniang said that this Xu Zhushu is Xu Xiuneng, the son of the British Duke, who was originally the captain of Chang'an, because he presided over the expansion of the hidden search field, and then the eldest princess of Jin'an strongly recommended, and finally entered the post of the chief secretary of Zhongshu Province, although it seems that the official rank is not obvious, but because Wei Yuanping appreciates it very much, it looks like it has a bright future.

It's just that Xu Xiuneng is not old enough to be crowned, and he hasn't even married a wife, but he is called an "adult" by Xie Ying, no wonder his biological mother Wei Xianjun was so frightened that her face turned pale......

At present, the title of "adult" is limited to parents, and Xie Ying actually recognizes others as her father in front of everyone's eyes, and Wei Xianjun, who is her mother, is so embarrassed and frightened, you can imagine it.

The brain is broken, and the brain is definitely broken, and Eleven Niang immediately agreed with Li Jiuniang's opinion.
