At the beginning of summer, the garden is charming and fragrant, and the palace maids are like clouds, and they are building flower stands or stepping on long ladders, which will dress up the royal garden with a new look.

In the center of the garden is a high platform, the ground is paved with a palindrome brocade felt, in the middle of the canopy of the word longevity, in the middle hangs a longevity shaft surrounded by jeweled jade, on which is written "There is a phoenix to come, longevity is boundless." ”

Shu Ange looked at it from a distance, the words on the longevity shaft were all carved with gold, surrounded by peonies, begonias and other famous flowers, and the sun was brilliant and brilliant.

The people are bored, the people are lonely, the queen should be the mother of the world, and she acts so extravagantly, so that Shu Ange did not sigh in his heart.

Outside Chang'an City, the grass is declining, the Forbidden City is full of gold and jade, the queen holds a birthday, and I don't know how many people want their families to be broken and their wives to be separated.

Shu Ange held the box and found a secluded place to stand, his mind turned a few times, and he felt more and more that under this splendid court, there was a lot of decay built of white bones.

"Dare to ask my sister if she is a fourth lady?"

A female voice as crisp as a yellow oriole sounded, and it was originally a cardamom girl in a pink palace dress, blinking her eyes and calling Shu Ange.

She bowed slightly, and the palace maid poured beans into the bamboo tube and said: "Fourth lady, I am the palace maid of Zhaoqing Palace with a smile, and His Royal Highness Fifth asked me to invite you to Zhaoqing Palace." ”

Smiling, the skin is slightly plump, delicate and white, and a pair of small dimples are very flattering, lively and cute, and it is easy to attract people.

Shu Ange is not the first time to enter the palace, so he naturally knows that in this palace, a woman's smile is like a painted skin, who knows what heart is in the stomach.

"Greeting the Fifth Highness on my behalf, the birthday banquet is about to start, I'll wait here."

Her attitude was so calm, and she was not moved by the summons of the Fifth Highness at all, which made Hanxiao's expression unconsciously stiff, and her expression was also a little anxious: "Fourth lady, this is a token of the Fifth Highness, and His Highness seems to be in a hurry to summon you." ”

Hanxiao took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, and there was a word engraved on it.

The name of the Fifth Highness is Li Yan, this is his name, knowing the heart-rending scream, the sun is rising higher and higher, and there is a little more heat in the wind.

Holding the jade pendant with a smile, his eyes were full of anticipation.

Shu Ange smiled lightly, held the box with one hand, took a step forward, and snatched the jade pendant from Hanxiao's hand with lightning speed.

The smooth and smooth jade pendant, lying in Shu Ange's white palm, exclaimed with a smile: "Fourth lady, you are ......"

She had never seen such a woman who played cards according to common sense, shouldn't ordinary people be rushed into the palace to panic, and when they suddenly heard that the Fifth Highness was summoned, shouldn't they be overjoyed and leave?

Stunned with a smile, Shu Ange played with the jade pendant in his hand, and took a few steps forward holding the box with one hand.

"Fourth lady, Zhaoqing Palace is here."

"Plop—"

The answer with a smile was the sound of the jade pendant falling into the water.

Shu Ange held the wooden box in both hands, looked at him with a little pity and smiled: "Go back to your fate, tell your master, don't think too stupid about others." ”

The warm sun sprinkled on his body, and his expression changed unpredictably with a smile, and after a while, he turned around and ran away, without saying another word.

Shu Ange squinted his eyes and watched Hanxiao leave, his fingers slowly tightened.

In this palace, it was even more uneven than she imagined.

Except for the queen mother, how many eyes are staring at her?

The character of the Fifth Highness, Shu Ange knows best, if he knows that she is in the palace, I am afraid that she will come over as soon as possible, how can he find someone to spread the word.

The queen mother is a person with a good heart, if she guesses correctly, the Fifth Highness is probably accompanying her in Qingning Palace at this moment.

The ladies and ladies who came to the banquet entered the palace one after another, and Shu Ange's attitude was unusually calm, not as if there was a tough battle to be fought.

There are too many beauties in the palace, although she is born well, under the condition of light makeup and plain clothes, she is not as good as the young lady who is dressed up, and she is not very noticed when she stands in the corner.

They are so young, full of collagen, and they are lovely.

Such a beautiful sight of flowers has attracted the attention of countless people.

Everyone is secretly competing, compared to family background, compared to appearance, more than makeup, more than the jewelry on the body, and more than the admiration of young children.

This is the advantage of being young, one by one, like a gorgeous peacock, unscrupulously competing for beauty.

Shu Ange stood in the corner and overheard many interesting words.

"The queen's birthday, so angry, the phoenix sings for nine days, and the mother is the world."

"Hehe, I heard that on this birthday, the queen mother chose a concubine for the Fifth Highness, if Sister Long is selected in the bird's screen, don't forget us."

Shu Ange moved his eyes over, and the two delicate noblewomen who spoke, the flowers between their eyebrows were shining like wind flowers, and the style of Emei was infinite.

Looking at the two of them dressed, their identities are extraordinary, and they are only fourteen or fifteen years old.

No wonder the young girls in the banquet were like clouds, it turned out that the queen actually had the idea of choosing a concubine for the Fifth Highness.

Shu Ange hugged the box hard, his knuckles turned white, and his expression became obscure.

Choosing a concubine, will His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness agree, Shu Ange's eyes fell on the high platform in the distance.

Ladies of high rank and unmarried ladies entered the palace one after another, and low-ranking concubines also brought people.

The royal garden is very lively, the fragrant wind is gusting, and the beauties of the fat swallow are dizzying.

Mrs. Wang didn't come, first, there was no school-age daughter at home, and second, Wang Baochuan made such a fuss back then, which made her embarrassed in the upper circle and embarrassed to enter the palace.

The girls were chattering innocently and lively, and few of them noticed Shu Ange, but a few of the noble ladies who entered the palace looked at her a few more times.

After a while, a lady who was a little older and a little lower in grade came over and asked: "This lady is so familiar, isn't it the third lady of Prime Minister Wang's family?" ”

The person who came directly broke Shu Ange's identity, and there was a strange look in his eyes.

"Madame has good eyesight, Sanniang is polite."

Shu Ange responded generously, and after the lady said a few words, she found a reason to leave.

When she returned to the circle of noble ladies, Shu Ange could obviously feel that there were more inquiring eyes.

The banquet is about to start, and the concubines and concubines of the palace are almost here, and the eunuchs are waiting with their hands down, not daring to look up.

The palace maid shuttled like a cloud, busy leading the nobles to sit down, and Shu Ange stood far away, not feeling cramped.

"The Queen Mother has arrived."

The little yellow door reported the news clearly, and the concubines got up to greet them outside the imperial garden, and a group of noble ladies and noble daughters followed behind.

Shu Ange did not leave the garden, only waited in the imperial garden, the queen mother was majestic, wearing a red straight swing in front of the eunuch, a group of female officials with graceful demeanor, hugging the queen mother's seven treasure steps.

The queen sat in the sedan chair, her expression was as solemn as a fairy concubine, and she accepted everyone to bow and salute.

There was also a slightly smaller sedan chair behind it, and the person sitting in it was none other than the Fifth Highness.
