Chapter 19: Borrowing Flowers and Offering Buddhas!
The second prince Zhao Mian and the imperial concubine sat on the high platform.
Zhao Yi was on the side of the two, and a separate set of cases was one level higher than the obvious grade of the others.
Huang Ying served beside him, pouring wine and cloth dishes while pinching his shoulders to relax.
When the heroine came in, she saw Zhao Yi on the high platform at a glance.
In the past, Zhao Yi participated in banquets and never sat on a high place, but sat next to her every time.
The heroine felt that Zhao Yi was very annoying at that time, and she always spoke coldly, and never gave him a good face.
Looking up at Zhao Yi now, the heroine is like a world away, and she is a little unaccustomed to it.
The heroine retracted her gaze and, according to her previous practice, walked towards the position under the high platform.
Before she could get closer, the maid who was waiting on her side stopped her.
"Miss Su, your location is not here."
Well?
The heroine was stunned for a moment.
She frowned and said, "In the past, I used to sit there when I attended banquets!" ”
The maid's face did not change: "Miss Su, your seat is in the back." ”
The heroine's face was gloomy.
She was just about to get angry, when she suddenly heard someone talking next to her.
"Isn't Su Changchang the imperial history of the Imperial History Tower, why don't you understand the etiquette at all for the daughter who taught her?"
"That's it! Her father is just a small fourth-rank official, and she still wants to sit in the first place? ”
"She doesn't think that she can be the first to be the first in the past by virtue of her own strength, right?"
"Who's to say it isn't! Without the Six Princes, what is a mere talented girl? ”
"Shhhh Be quiet, don't be heard by the Six Princes! ”
"What are you afraid of! The six princes have already asked for a divorce, and they only need to wait for His Majesty's royal pen Zhu to approve it, and the dismissal document will take effect! ”
"What a good person the six princes are, there is no more infatuated man in Shengjing City than him. It's a pity that this Su Qianqian doesn't know how to cherish it, and he actually hooks up with a monk, which is simply immoral and insulting! ”
"The six princes are still magnanimous, if it were me, I would have beheaded this slut a long time ago!"
The heroine heard the chatter around her, her face turned pale, her body shook, and she almost fell directly to the ground!
Words can't teach people a thousand times, just teach people once.
When the heroine used to listen to her father Su Changchang and those matchmakers talk about the harm of women's uncleanness, although she was worried in her heart, she didn't really feel it.
Now that she is being pointed out by everyone, the harsh words are like a knife scraping bones, and they are stabbed in her vital places one by one!
The heroine only felt a chill in her heart and was in pain.
She was scared.
I finally understand my father's good intentions!
You can't get married!
The heroine took a deep breath and finally made up her mind.
Zhao Yi just kept her distance, and these people dared to talk about her like this behind her back.
If you really get out of the marriage in the future.
How can there be a place for her in the huge Shengjing City?
Thinking of this, the heroine resisted the urge to turn around and leave, and silently walked to the last corner in the disdainful and mocking eyes of those people.
Sitting down in front of the desk, the heroine felt an unprecedented humiliation!
When I was with Zhao Yi before, the heroine was the center of the crowd wherever she went, when did she suffer this kind of snub?
The heroine lowered her head and felt the strange gazes around her, like a thorn in her back!
Soon, everyone was seated.
The second prince took a cup of wine and cooked wine, and everyone began to enjoy the food.
The heroine finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
She picked up a piece of venison that had been carefully prepared by the imperial chef and ate it into her mouth, but the delicious food did not make her feel better.
The heroine chewed lightly a few times, and the food was unsweet, like chewing wax.
"Alas!"
The heroine sighed in her heart.
Before he had time to feel sorry for himself, a crisp bell suddenly sounded in the banquet hall.
The heroine's face changed slightly.
This is the "wake-up bell", and the host is reminding the guests that the wonderful show is about to begin.
At the banquet of the second prince, there is always only one program.
That's drinking!
However, before drinking, guests will give gifts to express their blessings.
Drinking can't be considered a show, so gift-giving has become the main event!
The heroine has mocked this before.
In the entire Shengjing City, there is only one second prince who regards receiving gifts as a program.
The heroine is the most famous talented woman in Shengjing City, who has always regarded money as dung and is unwilling to be contaminated with the smell of copper.
Therefore, she never prepares gifts for banquets.
It's all arranged by Zhao Yi for her!
The heroine is used to Zhao Yi's arrangement, and over time, she forgets about gift-giving.
Now that Zhao Yi has fallen out with her, naturally no one will help her prepare.
The heroine is empty-handed and doesn't know what to do!
At this moment, there was a burst of exclamations from the crowd.
The heroine followed the prestige, and saw Yao Qing standing under the high platform, respectfully saluting Zhao Mian and his wife.
Behind her, a huge bronze mirror.
The bronze mirror is inlaid with one hundred and eight pink pearls the size of a bowl.
Although the heroine doesn't understand pearls, she has heard the name of Dongzhu.
There are many types of pearls, the most precious varieties are led by the East Pearl, and the pink East Pearl in the East China Sea is a treasure among the treasures!
The ordinary pink Dongzhu is already very valuable, and the pink Dongzhu on the bronze mirror behind Yao Qing is the size of a bowl, and the shape and size are exactly the same, all of which are rare treasures.
Not only that, but all the pink Dongzhu form a "longevity" character on the bronze mirror.
This bronze mirror is not only worth 10,000 gold, but also represents extraordinary significance!
Zhao Mian couldn't close his mouth with a smile, picked up the wine glass and drank heavily.
I don't know if it's really satisfying the gift, or taking the opportunity to drink a few more glasses of wine.
Zhao Mian kept drinking the wine in front of him, and then stopped, and nodded with satisfaction: "Shopkeeper Yao has a heart!" ”
Yao Qing respectfully replied: "The pink is given to the beauty, and the sword is given to the hero!" These Dongzhu can only play their value in the hands of people like you, the second prince, who know how to appreciate them, and in the hands of the people's daughters, they can only be pearls covered with dust! ”
Zhao Mian laughed: "Shopkeeper Yao praised it falsely!" Someone, give the rouge pill I brought back from the palace to Shopkeeper Yao! ”
The second imperial concubine liked these Dongzhu very much, and explained with a smile: "Shopkeeper Yao, the Rouge Pill is refined by the Miaoyin real person of Xuanzhen Guan, although it is not as good as the legendary Hongyan Pill that can make the face eternal, but it also has a wonderful use!" ”
Yao Qing's eyes lit up: "Thank you Imperial Princess, thank you Your Highness!" ”
Zhao Mian nodded, and was just about to let Yao Qing go back, when Yao Qing suddenly spoke.
She turned her head to look at the heroine in the corner, and said with a smile: "I heard that Miss Su is the first talented woman in Shengjing City, I don't know what gift I prepared today?" ”
The heroine's body trembled violently.
She didn't expect Yao Qing to wake up suddenly, and her face instantly turned bloodless.
When the people around saw her like this, they started to talk about it.
"She's not unprepared, is she?"
"Looks like so!"
"Didn't you bring a gift to the banquet of the second prince?"
"Su Changyuan's face was lost by her!"
When the heroine heard the discussion, she pursed her lips and gritted her teeth to prevent tears from falling.
She glanced at Zhao Yi on the high platform.
Zhao Yi was drinking with a wine glass, and he didn't look at this side at all.
The heroine didn't give up, and turned her head to look at the male protagonist on the other side, sitting under the head of the eldest prince Zhao Mian.
The male protagonist sat cross-legged, turning the prayer beads in his hand, and directly ignored her!
The heroine is completely desperate.
She just wanted to apologize to Zhao Mian and his wife, when she suddenly saw the sunlight shining directly outside the window.
Sunlight, bronze mirror.
The heroine's heart moved, and she saluted Zhao Mian and said, "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, can the people borrow a blank piece of paper?" ”
