The Yun family was speculating about the intentions of the crown princess, or the old lady Yun heard about the backyard, and finally made a decision: "The princess is afraid that the person who comes is not good, so let's call Yayun and Miaoran sick." ”

Liu learned the news from his subordinates, and his heart was indescribably disappointed. My father-in-law is also too timid and afraid.

The princess's flower-viewing banquet, the banquet is all after the famous family, this is a good opportunity for her daughter and niece to make a stunning appearance, and at the same time you can make a lot of contacts, once you miss it, there will be no more.

Liu didn't dare to question his father-in-law's decision, and waved his hand at the two girls weakly: "Then let's resign." ”

Hearing this, Yun Yayun and Yun Miaoran glanced at each other, and were about to retreat, but the descendants of the Yun family walked in at this time.

"The eldest lady, the female official next to the crown princess and the princess came to the door to ask to see you."

Liu Shi showed a suspicious gaze: "What is the female official next to the crown princess doing?" She took a deep breath, "Please." ”

Cuiping has gone all the way and has a full view of the layout and layout of the Yun family.

Although Yun Zhen was in a high position at the beginning, he was born in a poor family, and compared with Zhong Mingding's scholars, he still had some background.

This house of the Yun family is a three-entry house, there are no pavilions and pavilions on the way, and there are no rockery ponds and marshes, there is only a garden, and there are some common flowers planted in it.

Fortunately, there are not many people in the Yun family who went to Beijing this time, this house is so cramped, just a few owners are crowded enough, not to mention that there are people who are waiting.

Cui Ping had a number in his heart.

When they arrived at the flower hall, Liu's wife, the head of the family, got up to greet her in person: "The concubine's maiden name is Liu, I don't know what the girl is called?" ”

"Meet Mrs. Yun, the slave's name is Cuiping, and she is the female official who serves by the side of the crown princess."

Cui Ping bowed without humility or arrogance.

Liu Shi hurriedly gave a hand, and then pointed to the two young and jade-looking girls beside him: "Yayun, Miaoran, don't come to see Aunt Cuiping yet." ”

It is said that Yun Yayun and Yun Miaoran are both daughters of official families, but Cuiping is of high grade, not to mention that she is serving by the side of the crown princess, Liu also hopes that her daughter or niece can enter the prince's mansion, where do you dare to offend the people around the crown princess.

For Liu's courtesy, Cui Ping hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, and she smiled faintly: "The two young ladies are precious women, so don't torture the slave maid." ”

"Aunt Cuiping is polite, come here, show Aunt Cuiping."

Liu's attitude was unusually warm.

Cuiping's eyes flashed, and she said with a smile: "Mrs. Yun, what kind of person is the slave on the card, if the rules are broken, after I go back, the crown princess will definitely punish me heavily, and please Mrs. Yun don't embarrass me." ”

Cuiping's purpose today is twofold, one of which is to save face for the Yun family, so that the Yun family can't say anything about their suffering, but she won't do anything that is honest.

If she really made this chair, she would definitely have a reputation that no one would have in her eyes, and even the crown princess would be criticized for not being strict with her.

Cui Ping has talked about this, and Liu is not good at persuading him.

She said in an inquiring tone: "I don't know if Aunt Cuiping came here today, does the crown princess have any orders?" ”

"The crown princess heard that Master Yun had come to the capital, so she specially sent slaves and maids to see if there was any shortage in the house."

Cuiping smiled on her face: "The slave maid has come all the way, and I saw that this house is cramped, if Mrs. Yun is a little uneasy in her money, even if she talks to the princess." ”

When Liu heard this, he almost couldn't maintain the smile on the corner of his mouth.

This Cui Ping almost pointed to his nose and said that his house was too shabby, but the other party was kind, and Liu couldn't even find an excuse for the attack.

"Madam, at the beginning, Lord Yun taught His Royal Highness the Prince's "Book of Rites", and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always remembered this kindness. Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in the capital now, before the slave maid came, the princess Niangniang specially instructed the slave maid. Niangniang said: Husband and wife are one, and she is willing to perform a disciple ceremony in front of Lord Yun on behalf of His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

Cuiping is "kindness" again, and it is also a "disciple ceremony", these words are even eliminated, so that Liu can't maintain the smile on the corner of his mouth at all.

She hurriedly said: "Aunt Cuiping, it was the saint who assigned the family to teach His Royal Highness the prince poetry and books, this is the duty of a courtier, how dare the family be proud." Aunt Cuiping's words today, I just don't think I've heard them; Otherwise, where would the family still have the face to meet His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

Cui Ping snorted coldly in the bottom of her heart.

If Yun Zhen knew the duty of a courtier, on the first day he came to the capital, he should have handed over a letter to the prince's mansion, that is, if His Royal Highness the prince was not in the mansion, the daughters of the Yun family should also come to the door to say hello.

Heaven and Earth Jun are the teachers, but I am afraid that Yun Zhen will forget, which is in front and which is behind.

Cui Ping slapped her mouth lightly: "Look at the clumsy appearance of the slave maid, the princess and the princess clearly don't mean this, the slave and the maid can't spread their words well, and the harmful lady is terrified, after returning home, the slave and the maid must ask the princess for guilt." ”

Liu understands it, this Cuiping sentence after sentence, hiding needles between the lines, is clearly here to make things difficult for his family.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not forgotten: his father-in-law was rejected by His Majesty because of him!

Liu's heart was sad.

She cheered up and perfunctory with Cui Ping: "I have received the princess's wishes for my family." However, our Yun family has a family motto: quiet to self-cultivation, thrift to cultivate virtue. The courtyard of these three entrances is already spacious enough, and I dare not let the princess break the bank again. ”

Cui Ping smiled slightly, and a pair of gentle eyes fell on the two girls of the Yun family: "Mrs. Liu is so blessed, the two young ladies are not only beautiful and beautiful, but also gentle and virtuous, but ......"

Cui Ping paused, and then said, "The dresses on the two young ladies don't look like the popular styles in the capital. Although Mrs. you are frugal and housekeeping, there is no shortage of people in this capital with eyes on the top of their heads, and the slaves and maids are afraid that the two young ladies will be underestimated. ”

Cui Ping's eyes were soft, however, Yun Yayun and Yun Miaoran sisters were like fire, and their faces turned red, and they were ashamed and angry in their hearts.

"It is said that the slave maid should not have this mouth, but thinking of the princess's respect for Master Yun, how can the slave and maid turn a blind eye and make the two young ladies of your family make a joke."

Mrs. Liu only bit the soft flesh on her cheeks, so she didn't let herself lose her temper on the spot. It's too much of a deception! It's so deceitful!

"Mrs. Yun doesn't have to worry too much, the crown princess has prepared a cart of gifts for the Yun family to bring over to the slave maids, not only the most fashionable streamer brocade in the capital today, but also some hairpin rings, which can solve the urgent needs of the two young ladies. Tomorrow's flower-viewing banquet, the crown princess will be waiting for your family. ”

(

After Cui Ping finished speaking, he curtsied: "Mrs. Yun, the slave still has an errand on her body, so she will retire first." ”

"Auntie walks slowly." Mrs. Liu was given such a big face by Cuiping, and she even forgot the excuse of letting her daughter and niece call her illness.

And Cuiping came too fast, so she took a picture with her daughter and nephew, she can't be okay today, and tomorrow she will be sick!

Not to mention how annoyed Liu was in his heart.

Yun Miaoran looked at the box that was carried into the flower hall, and then woke up like a dream: "Mother, my daughter is going to send Aunt Cuiping." ”

Cui Ping is a seven-grade female official, if there is no one to send her when she leaves, the Yun family is too rude, isn't this obviously not putting the princess in her eyes? !

With his daughter's reminder, Liu hurriedly said, "You go quickly." ”

……

Sending Cuiping away, Yun Miaoran returned to the flower hall, only to see that the four big boxes in the flower hall had been opened.

The first box is porcelain, the second box is precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and He Shou Wu, as well as a box of clothing and jewelry, not to mention 5,000 taels of silver.

Rao is Liu is still angry, and he can't help but be secretly speechless at this moment.

This princess is really generous, no wonder everyone wants to ascend to a high position, the royal family is really a golden nest of wealth and wealth!

"Auntie, the dress here seems to be the size of me and my sister." Yun Yayun picked up a dress and compared it with her body in surprise.

The color of this dress is like a lake, smooth to the touch, and as soft as a cloud, at the moment in the sun, it is actually sparkling, making people reluctant to look away.

Yun Yayun has never seen such a precious fabric, and she has long forgotten the shame just now, and she can't put it down.

Liu frowned: "How can the crown princess know the size of your sisters?" ”

"Mother, won't you know if you try it?"

My cousin likes the green of the lake, and she likes the blue of the lake, and the dresses in this box have the most of these two colors, and some such as apricot yellow, pink, mugwort green, daylily yellow, snow blue, rouge, etc.

Yun Miaoran didn't believe it was just a coincidence.

After she finished speaking, without waiting for Liu to speak, she silently picked up a lake-blue dress, went around the screen and changed it, only to see that the dress on her body fit very well, and it was exactly the same size as herself.

Yun Miaoran walked out of the screen in a solemn mood.

Liu looked at his daughter in a lake blue Luo skirt, and his eyes suddenly lit up, his daughter's skin was snow-white, and she was lined with this lake blue, which was like a snow ball, and it was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Liu didn't believe it, no matter how beautiful the crown princess was, could she be more beautiful than her daughter?

However, the life of the family is tight, and I can only let my daughter wear some ordinary materials, and bury my daughter's good talents! On the bright side, this princess has also done a good thing.

"Since you have to go to tomorrow's flower-viewing banquet, you can wear this dress, pick out a few pieces of jewelry, and don't disappoint the princess."

"Mother, my daughter should be sick."

On the way from her hometown to the capital, Yun Miaoran was full of ambition, and along the way she was thinking about how she should deal with it when she arrived in the capital, and how she should get the blue eyes of the crown princess and His Royal Highness the prince.

But after eating this painful and happy dismount today, Yun Miaoran flinched a little.

Let's not say that I and the crown princess are naturally unequal in status, just talking about these gifts, I haven't entered Beijing yet, and the other party even knows the size of himself and his cousin, how terrible is this!

What's even more terrifying is that the crown princess also used the most ingenious method to tell their family quietly: She has long been clear about the Yun family's plans!

Obviously, the room was warm, but Yun Miaoran couldn't help but shudder.

"Since the crown princess has sent a female official to invite, where is it that you said that you don't want to go, you won't go, Miaoran, you have always been well-behaved and sensible, why are you willful at this juncture."

Liu frowned in confusion.

Yun Miaoran came to her senses, and after seeing her mother's dissatisfied and confused gaze, she couldn't help biting her lip and could only nod.

……

Prince's Mansion.

Shen Yunwan saw that the weather was good, so he went to the garden for a walk.

When Cuiping came back, she saw the crown princess holding a handful of fish food in her hand, and she was feeding the koi in the lake with great interest.

She stepped forward quickly: "Slave maid see the crown princess." Mother, the gift slave has been brought. ”

"How are the two young ladies of the Yun family?" Shen Yunwan wiped his hands with a clean handkerchief and handed it to Xin Yi on the side.

"Back to Niangniang, the two young ladies of the Yun family are at a good age, and they have a bit of color, but compared to the light of the sun and the moon of Niangniang, they are like pearls of rice. The slave and maid thought it was nothing more than that. ”

"Look at your sweet mouth, did you smear honey in advance before coming to see this palace?" Shen Yunwan smiled slightly.

She didn't care about the appearance of the Yun family sisters, and it was obvious that Cui Ping understood what she meant.

"What about the temperament of the sisters? What can be seen? ”

Cuiping realized that she had replied the wrong word, and hurriedly said: "The slave maid thinks that this sister is a little more stable than the sister." However, the head of the Yun family, the wife of the Liu family, is not a top matter, and the slave maid gave the Liu family a dismount, but she didn't even have the strength to fight back. ”

"That's normal, too. Yun Zhen was born in a poor family, and the foundation of the Yun family is still too thin, and if he wants to marry a famous lady for his eldest son, he has to see whether others agree or not. "The more families they are, the more they pay more attention to the marriage of their children.

"According to what you say, this daughter of the Liu family is a material that can be made. It seems that Hongu should be careful. ”

Shen Yunwan lifted her red lips and showed a noncommittal smile.

With Cuiping's eyesight, the word "steady" shows that Yun Miaoran is a city government.

"Mother, you're joking again. You are holding the pearl of wisdom, a small cloud is wonderful, and it is not even worthy of being your stumbling block. ”

Cui Ping covered his mouth and smiled.

"You, don't use some rhetoric to coax this palace." Shen Yunwan glanced at Cui Ping.

However, the Yun family would accept the gift, which surprised the palace. The palace also thought that with Yunzhen's integrity, he would not accept it. ”

"Niangniang, you don't know, the Liu family is a little family, maybe you see those jewelry eyes are straight, where are you willing to return it." Cui Ping's tone was full of disdain.

Xiao wants to be the crown prince and concubine, and he doesn't look at whether he is worthy or not.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince promised the Crown Princess that he would never accept two colors in this life, and if he violated his oath, he would be in a different place.

I was outside the door at the time, but I could hear it clearly.

"Look at your temperament! I know if you are unhappy for this palace, this little thing, where is it worth being angry, or take a look tomorrow, maybe there will be unexpected surprises. Shen Yunwan showed an interested gaze.
