Chapter 25 Flower Viewing Meeting
Soon, it was time for the cherry blossom viewing festival. On this day, Lin Qin dressed up very ceremoniously, first choosing a purple dress that she thought was the most expensive from the clothes sent by King Wen's mansion, and then specially found an experienced maid to take care of her makeup. It is said that the maid used to dress up Princess Wen and other powerful children, but now she has become famous, and she is not easy to sell without a hundred taels of gold. Lin Qin begged for a long time and spent a lot of money to invite someone here. She thought that this time she would be amazed at the flower viewing conference.
On the other hand, Lin Qijue didn't have any intention of dressing up. She thought that she went to this flower-viewing meeting just for the pair that Qi Fang said. She was ready to make money, and as for making other people and developing this relationship, she didn't even think about it. Because she thinks, who knows if there will be any opportunities in the future for her to return to modern times? Moreover, at the moment, my eyes are still invisible, how can I have the time and energy to engage in these children's affections?
On the other hand, Jinyu is very anxious, since the last time she went to see the old lady, she has always been preoccupied. She also wanted to persuade Miss to think about marriage, after all, at her age, many girls from other families even have children. However, every time Jinyu wanted to talk about it, she found that she didn't know where to start, and she rashly talked about this topic, and she was afraid that Lin Qi would never be happy. Because, before that, she had heard a remark from Miss that she wanted to marry later and have children later, eugenics. Although Jinyu didn't understand this meaning very well, on the surface she still understood that the young lady wanted to get married later. However, the old lady's situation is so serious, if she doesn't say it again, she doesn't know if the old lady can wait.
After that, Jinyu couldn't see Lin Qijue, so she chose some good-looking dresses for her. For her makeup matching, it can be said that she has poured out Jinyu's lifelong learning. But Jinyu made a small mistake, she cared about dressing up Lin Qijue, and didn't pay attention to the news from Lin Qin's side. Therefore, the skirt that Jinyu chose for Lin Qi is certainly good-looking, but the color system collides with Lin Qin's.
Originally, the relationship between the two will always make people compare involuntarily. Now I happen to be wearing the same color, so the comparison will be more in-depth.
Lin Qin thought that he was the master, so he dressed up and came to King Wen's Mansion early. When everyone saw Lin Qin, they all admired her beauty and temperament. Xu is the maid she found who used to dress up for Princess Wen, and there is still a little shadow of her on this Lin Qin. Wen Shizi looked at Lin Qin, and there was a trace of desire in his eyes.
Lin Qijue came to participate in the flower viewing meeting as a guest, and he came much later than Lin Qin. As soon as she entered the venue, there was a lot of discussion. Some people rely on her to be invisible, and they even point fingers blatantly. What they are talking about is either a recent rumor, or they compare her in a purple dress at the moment with Lin Qin just now. Although Lin Qijue is already a slim beauty under Jinyu's careful dressing, and she belongs to the kind of person who will turn back when she walks to the street, there is still a gap with Lin Qin. Lin Qin's beauty may be reflected in her soundness and light in her eyes, unlike Lin Qijue's eyes, which are invisible and sluggish, and Lin Qin's makeup has a great bonus. The most important point is that Lin Qin deliberately restrained her behavior, and she looked down and generous, just like a lady.
When Lin Qin saw Lin Qijue coming, the smile on his face couldn't help but deepen. Today, she wants to make Lin Qi look like no other.
Prince Wen saw that the seats were full and everyone had arrived, so he started today's flower viewing meeting. He found his sister, Monarch Yingxuan, and asked her to do her best as a guest, introduce seasonal flowers to the children of the powerful people who participated, and also took them to the pavilion for a stroll and visited King Wen's mansion.
After a few moments, the group returned to their original place. Lord Yingxuan told everyone present that there are two special parts of today's flower viewing meeting, and everyone can participate according to their preferences. One is a poetry pair, and the other is a talent competition.
Everyone listened, almost according to their daily contact with the most to choose, the father is a civil official chose to sing poems as a pair, and the father is a military attache chooses a talent competition. The children of wealthy businessmen, all according to their own hobbies, choose any one.
Everyone thinks that Lin Qijue should choose to compete in talent. Because her maternal grandfather was a military attaché, however, her father actually dabbled in both sides and was better at reciting poetry. However, the scandal about Lin Qijue's illiterate people spread all over the place, and despite Qi Fang's clarification, many people still think that Lin Qijue bought Qi Fang, and Lin Qijue himself doesn't know anything. Including Lin Qin, she also thought that Lin Qijue would definitely choose a talent show, and she had already found someone to deal with it. As long as Lin Qijue performs on stage, it won't be long before there will be an accident.
What people never expected was that Lin Qijue firmly chose to sing poetry. When Lin Qin saw it, he kindly persuaded him, but Lin Qi definitely didn't listen to the persuasion. Seeing this, Lin Qin found the Gu Gongzi who proposed to fight against the poem last time. This Gu Nanbei, although he is full of justice and some literati ink, in fact, he is not a person with a moral bottom line. He would secretly go to the kiln in the name of others, and he would also do things that hurt others for money.
So, Lin Qin looked for Gu Nanbei in the name of Wen Shizi, and asked him to do him a favor as the future princess. Gu Nanbei is a refined egoist, and after listening to Lin Qin's words, he was skeptical. It's not that she is half-convinced of what Lin Qin asked her to fabricate, but that she is half-convinced of the identity of her future princess. He felt that Lin Qin would be a concubine if he didn't do it. After all, Prince Wen also said to the outside world that he was destined for Wen Shizi. With such an empty title, there is no guarantee for his future.
I only heard Gu Nanbei say cheaply: "Princess Shizi, who knows?" You know, as long as you make it clear, I can tell you that the black is white. ”
Gu Nanbei's implication was to ask Lin Qin to give money. Lin Qin usually did not worry about these things, and when he heard it, he understood what Gu Nanbei meant. Lin Qin nodded at him and told him that as long as things were done, there would be absolutely no problem. As he spoke, he took out a golden hairpin from his arms. At first glance, it is not a bargain, this is what Wen Shizi gave her a few days ago. Gu Nanbei stretched out his hand to take the golden hairpin and nodded towards Lin Qin.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Qin went to the talent competition alone. She had been practicing for this for a long time, and she would not waste this opportunity because of Lin Qijue. Anyway, with Gu Nanbei here, it will definitely make Lin Qi look good.
