There was a commotion at the entrance, and then it was quiet again, and Shen Lansui stood up with everyone.

"Thank you brothers for appreciating your faces, making my princess's mansion shine."

Princess Rong Zhao's words confirmed Shen Lansui's guess, she raised her eyes and looked, and sure enough, she saw a group of people surrounding Rong Zhao and another woman walking in, looking at the dress, which princess should also be.

The man next to the princess was dressed in a yellow python robe, which made people want to ignore it.

The rest of the princes wore different colors of robes, but all of them were extravagant.

Looking from afar, talking and laughing, each with its own merits, all of them are dragons and phoenixes among people.

At this moment, the description of the nobles in the book suddenly became clear and concrete.

Shen Lansui couldn't help but hold his breath slightly.

"Rong Zhao rarely holds a banquet, as an elder brother, how can Lone not come to the party?"

The prince smiled and quietly observed the people on the female guest's side.

Everyone immediately saluted, "The courtiers (lower officials) see Your Highness—"

The prince took the lead, raised his hand and said: "No courtesy, today is a private banquet, you don't have to be restrained." ”

"Your Highness!"

Shen Lansui sat back in her position, sensing that someone was looking at her, turned her head and glanced at it, and inadvertently met the gaze of the Fifth Highness, she was stunned, then nodded and staggered her gaze.

The Fifth Highness rubbed the jade pendant on his waist, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked.

Lu Xingyue sat not far behind the Fifth Highness.

As soon as he said something to the people around him, when he saw Shen Lansui looking over, he lifted his eyes, but Shen Lansui had already withdrawn his gaze.

Lu Xingyue was helpless.

He seems to be really people off.

Princess Rong Zhao said a few words, and then raised her glass to invite everyone to drink, Shen Lansui's eyes fell on her wrist, and she found that it seemed to be a little red.

Was it okay in the pavilion before?

A vague rebuke suddenly flashed in his mind, and Shen Lansui's eyelids jumped, and he always felt that he knew some great secret.

"Third sister-in-law, are you wandering?" Lu Jingzhi quietly ripped off her sleeve.

The positions of the two are very close to each other, in the front of the second row, which is very convenient to see from this angle, and it is not too conspicuous.

Shen Lansui retracted his gaze and said in a low voice: "Well, the beauty at the banquet is like a flower, and I was fascinated for a while." ”

Lu Jingzhi covered his lips and smiled, "Everyone has a love for beauty, I understand." ”

Shen Lan looked at the first place in front of the female guest, "Which princess is in front?" ”

Lu Jingzhi whispered: "It's Princess Jiale, the second princess, and the sister of Princess Rongzhao." ”

Shen Lansui suddenly realized, it turned out to be Princess Jiale, Princess Rongzhao was the fourth, and Princess Jiale was the second, the two were only one year old, and they hadn't married a horse yet, so they usually walked closer.

It was not unusual for her to come to the chrysanthemum banquet, but the seven princes opposite......

For some reason, she always felt weird in her heart.

"I heard that my sister left a question for the girls at the entrance of the chrysanthemum garden, I don't know which one got into your eyes?" Princess Jiale asked with a smile.

Shen Lansui's heart tightened, she sat up straight slightly, and Lu Jingzhi stopped talking, her eyes were full of curiosity.

Princess Rong Zhao sat on the top, and said with a smile: "There are too many in the eye, the nobles of our Yangdu are all outstanding, it is difficult to distinguish between the best and the best, but there is one of the most special." ”

Her eyes fell on Ruan Huaishu, who was sitting in front, and blinked, "I'd rather die with incense on the branches, how could I have blown down in the north wind (1)?" Zanghua, which girl do you want to deceive today? ”

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Ruan Huaishu.

Ruan Huaishu Shi Ran got up, holding a folding fan in one hand and a wine cup in the other, pretending to be helpless: "I want to deceive, but the sisters and sisters here are all human spirits, and they can see me through at a glance." ”

The two sang and harmonized, the atmosphere was much more relaxed, and bursts of laughter rang out during the banquet.

Shen Lansui watched Ruan Huaishu drink all the wine in the cup, and raised his eyebrows in surprise, the amount of wine in Zanghua is good.

She was still a little worried about whether Princess Rong Zhao would order her, she didn't want to be in the limelight on this occasion, but she didn't expect Rong Zhao to just click on Ruan Huaishu and divert the topic, and didn't mention the matter of poetry, and the other nobles were also relieved.

Shen Lansui couldn't help but wonder if these two people had passed the gas ahead of schedule?

It's not interesting to just sit and drink, Rong Zhao proposed to let the young ladies and sons show their talents, and they can show their hands in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and there are rewards for outstanding performance.

Lu Jingzhi saw that the reward was a set of fine jade heads, and remembered that the eldest lady liked it, so he wanted to get up, and Shen Lansui held her down.

Lu Jingzhi was puzzled, "Third sister-in-law, don't you want me to go?" ”

Shen Lansui shook his head, the noble girl had already stepped forward to perform after their hesitation, and Lu Jingzhi could only sit back.

"What's wrong?" Lu Jingzhi asked again.

Shen Lansui's gaze swept over the princes who had been on the opposite side for a long time, and asked in a low voice, "You say, why are the princes here?" ”

Lu Jingzhi said blankly: "Didn't you come to cheer for Princess Rong Zhao?" ”

Shen Lansui asked meaningfully: "I remember that there are still several people in the prince who are not married, right?" ”

Lu Jingzhi paused, and then his eyes widened suddenly, "You mean ......?"

"Shh

Shen Lansui made a silent gesture.

Lu Jingzhi immediately closed her mouth, she looked left and right with palpitations, and sure enough, several noble girls with good family backgrounds were motionless from beginning to end.

"Do you want to marry into the royal family?" Shen Lansui asked hesitantly.

Lu Jingzhi's head shook like a rattle, "No, I don't want to at all!" ”

Shen Lansui thought about it, her straightforward temperament was incompatible with the prince's backyard.

Lu Jingzhi held her hand and said gratefully: "If it weren't for the third sister-in-law, you would have stopped me, I'm afraid it would be me who went up at this time, in case there is really a prince who is blind and looks at me, hiss...... I don't dare to think about it. ”

Shen Lansui couldn't cry or laugh, "You don't have to be so arrogant." ”

The Lu family is not ugly, Lu Jingzhi is naturally a great beauty, and her temperament is straightforward and straightforward, and she is easy to like, the most important thing is that she has a strong family background, her father is Rong Guogong, and her mother is the second daughter of the prince of Congyang County, and the above three brothers are also more promising than the other.

If the prince has a heart, she must be the first choice of the concubine.

Thinking of this, Shen Lansui couldn't laugh anymore, if they had the heart, it was not a foolproof strategy not to go on stage, it could only depend on what Rong Guogong thought.

She subconsciously glanced at the male guest seat opposite, but saw that the general who had been on the same side before was facing Lu Xingyue from a few seats and raised his glass expressionlessly.

Lu Xingyue picked up the wine cup and gestured to him from afar, hid his face and drank it all.

Shen Lansui muttered, "...... The injuries on his body are not yet healed, and he dares to drink. ”

Lu Jingzhi didn't hear clearly, "Third sister-in-law, what did you say?" ”

"Nothing." Shen Lansui retracted his gaze, looked at the wine cup on the table, and curiously picked it up and smelled it.

Is it that good?

She tentatively took a sip, and the spicy mixed with the fragrance of unknown flowers rushed straight to the Tianling Gai, choking her eyes and turning red instantly.

"Ahem, ahem—" She swallowed and coughed twice in a suppressed manner.

Lu Jingzhi patted her on the back and said smoothly, "Third sister-in-law, drink slowly, this wine is very strong." ”

Shen Lansui: "......"

Sister, let's say it earlier next time, okay?

She put down the cup with trembling hands and sniffed, her eyes filled with moisture.

Lu Xingyue on the opposite side looked over, and his expression suddenly froze.

Why are you crying?
