On May 28, half past midnight, carriages lined up in front of the east street gate of Bixiaotang, from the street to the end of the street.

A young lady in Tsing Yi looked at the gate of the East Street, and then ran back to a black-painted flat-top carriage at the end of the street, bowing to a woman in her forties in the carriage to salute: " Madam, we still have twenty carriages in front of us! Do you want the slave-maid to speak to the porter..." What his wife said was also Mrs. Yao, and the three generations of the Yao family assisted the South King's Mansion, even the concubine should give this face to his wife. Let the Yao family's advanced carriage be the king!

"Wait." Mrs. Yao waved her hand, unconcerned.

This is the first time I have come to see Princess Shizi. I don't know the temperament of the other party. It is always right to be cautious.

Mrs. Yao waited patiently outside the house for half a year, and her carriage was introduced into Bixiaotang.

The carriage stopped in front of the Dongyi gate, and Mrs. Yao got off the carriage with the help of the maid. A maid dressed in a royal blue five-year-old holding a long-scented baby dresser greeted her with wrinkles all around her eyes. Together.

"I've seen Mrs. Yao." The stewardess's mother saluted Mrs. Yao enthusiastically.

Mrs. Yao was stunned. The Princess of the World didn't come to greet the guests. She was not surprised.After all, the Princess of the World is now the highest-ranking female concubine in southern Xinjiang, and the honor of the master of the first class. No one today can be honored. Let Shi Zifei meet him personally.

Mrs. Yao smiled slightly and said politely: "Mother Lu." Although she hasn't seen her for more than ten years, Mrs. Yao recognized the other party.

This grandmother Lu was a powerful stewardess next to the first princess Dafang, but since the death of the first princess, the current wife married the Zhennan royal palace, this grandmother Lu disappeared in front of people... For more than ten years, the other party has been reused by the concubine.This is really an emperor and a courtier!

"Ms. Yao still remembers slave-maid, slave-maid is really not honored." Mother-in-law Lu smiled more joyfully. After she was in charge of welcoming guests here, she would welcome the guests to Xi Hongtang.

But Mrs. Yao is not an ordinary woman, and Grandma Lu led her away.

As soon as she entered Xihongtang, Mrs. Yao was in a daze for a while, and she saw a beautiful little lady of about fifteen years old sitting on the master's seat, and a little girl Xiao Fei, a familiar girl, sat on the circle chair on her left .

For a time, Madam Yao's thoughts flashed through, but she did not show a strange color. She continued to walk forward without any trouble, and then saw Nangong Yue: "I have seen Princess Shizi."

"Ms. Yao does not have to be so courteous." Nangong Yue gestured with a glance, and a little maid supported her while Mrs. Yao bent.

"Thank you Princess Shi." Mrs. Yao made the number of gifts enough, and then looked at Xiao Fei. Xiao Fei got up and saw her, and the two greeted a few words.

Mrs. Yao looked as if nothing had happened on the surface, but in fact she had already started to make waves.

In the past few days, some palaces in Luoyue City were rumored that Princess Shizi and Xiao Xiao had a good relationship. Mrs. Yao only thought of it as a joke, and she didn't take it seriously. Only then did she confirm that it wasn't groundless.

Mrs. Yao also heard about Miss Xiao’s temperament, and Princess Shizi had such a good relationship with this little aunt, so there must be a set...

Madam Yao looked at Nangong Yue again without any traces, only to see that she was wearing a rose and purple dichroic gold carved silk and narrow knee sleeves, and she had a fallen bun on her head. Because she had not reached the bridle, her temples only had a few red hairpins. The jade bead flower, the bead flower seems simple, but the ruby ​​is rare and flawless, and even the stamen is exquisite and lifelike.The bright and beautiful dress made her shine, and she seemed to be just a pretty and decent little girl, but she was calm and courageous from beginning to end, and there was no trace of timidity.

In the past few years, Shizi Xiao Yi has gradually revealed a sharp edge.She originally thought that Princess Shizi was the emperor's marriage, and the emperor's fear of Zhennan Wangfu was not necessarily good-hearted.I did not expect the emperor to give Shiziye a gift. Okay, look at this young concubine's young age, but his style is not small. It is worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Nangong family and the master of Yufeng. Presumably, she is very holy.In the future, it is not easy for Mrs. Fang Shi to want to start with Mr. Shi Zi, except for Shi Ziye, but not Shi Shifei.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Yao was quite determined and became more confident in her own future.Also, the old man has always been a person with a compass, no wonder that Hanger will be followed by the old man!

Afterwards, other ladies came in one after another, and Mrs. Yao was led by a maid to the flower hall.

After walking for a while along the copy corridor, through a wishful door, it is the flower hall.

At this time, the weather was good. The ladies opened all the windows on the three sides of the flower hall, and the inside was bright, and at a glance, you could see a pair of large blue and white porcelain vases placed in the corner, and four satin glass screens carved with Nanmu primrose color, which were simple but elegant.

In May, the pomegranate flowers bloomed, red like fire, dazzling, sitting in the flower hall, you can see the pomegranate flowers blooming in the small garden, overlooking the lingering lake, a breeze blowing, bringing a burst The fragrance of flowers made people relax.

The tea and fruit snacks on the table are already set.In addition to the common snacks in southern Xinjiang, they are also slightly mixed with some Wangdu dim sums.These dim sums are made by the chefs brought by Nangong Yue from Wangdu, but they are authentic Wangdu flavors. .

A lot of people have already arrived in the flower hall. At first glance, it can be said that they are colorful, pearly, and very lively.

Mrs. Yao glanced around quickly, and was a little surprised in her heart. Today there are more people than she expected. Mrs. Hong's mother-in-law, who was sentenced by Hong Tong, and General Lan, Jiang, and Xin, etc. Are here.Shiziye's foundation in southern Xinjiang is getting deeper and deeper!

Seeing Mrs. Yao coming, an acquaintance immediately got up and greeted her.

"Mrs. Yao," Mrs. Jiang dragged Mrs. Yao down with a smile and said, "Why didn't your daughter-in-law come?"

Speaking of the eldest daughter-in-law, the smile on Mrs. Yao's face could not be concealed, saying: "My eldest daughter-in-law just diagnosed a happy vein the other day and can only sue the concubine Shizi."

Mrs. Jiang said happily, "Congratulations, Mrs. Yao!"

"She's listless all day now, she doesn't want to eat anything, it's really sad for me." Mrs. Yao said so, but she didn't have any sadness on her face, and the corners of her mouth were even more curved.

Her eldest son has been married for five years, and this is the first child of her daughter-in-law. She is looking forward to it day and night.

Several other wives also congratulated on the news.

There are not many high-ranking households in southern Xinjiang. These ladies are also known to some extent. After the greeting, they chatted warmly...

The young ladies filled in tea and snacks from time to time, which was very docile.

Gradually, there were more and more people in the flower hall. Luo Yuecheng and the wife of Lord Zhilu brought the wife of Lord Ma to the government.Follow the appeasement of Mrs. Liu’s wife and Mr. Yun’s wife with their daughter-in-law and eldest daughter... all came.

Mrs. Yao has not seen the families of these civil and military officials gathered for many years. It seems that Shiziye's face is really amazing.

At this time, Mrs. Hua, who was sitting on the other side, patted Mrs. Yao's arm lightly, and then motioned her to look at the door, only to see a prideful lady and two beautiful young girls coming from outside the hall.

There was a moment of silence in the flower hall, and everyone looked at the three of them together with a delicate expression.

Everyone knows this lady. She is the eldest sister of the lord, Mrs. Qiao, and the girl on her left is her eldest daughter Qiao Ruolan, and the girl on the right is Xiao Fei, the eldest girl of the palace.

Xiao Fei quietly led the way in front: "Aunt, cousin, please here."

Seeing them coming in, a woman dressed in a lake-colored tutu stood up and greeted her enthusiastically, "Sister and Lan, you can come."

Mrs. Qiao nodded gracefully, "Second sister!"

Xiao Fei and Qiao Ruolan also saluted and shouted "Auntie".

Yes, this lady is Mrs. Qiao and the sister of King Zhennan. Now she is married to Mrs. Ji in Jifu.

"Sister, come sit here with my sister. My sister hasn't talked to her older sister for a few days." Mrs. Ji took a veil and smiled, "I heard there is one more in my sister's house." "Sister", the elder sister is really virtuous, so there is a good wife, the brother-in-law is blessed!

Although Mrs. Ji smiled, she looked at the sister-in-law with cold eyes, without concealing the misfortune in her eyes.

Her sister-in-law used to suppress herself everywhere in her boudoir, and finally married herself, thinking that she could get rid of her completely in the future, but she didn't expect that the other party even sent two enchanting maids to her husband after her miscarriage. He also gave a name to share his worries for himself, and succeeded him in inheriting the family clan! And his mother-in-law also accepted it!

Thinking of the events of that year, Mrs. Ji gritted her teeth in anger and endured for more than ten years, and finally got a bad breath in her heart.

Recently, Lieutenant General Qiao held a concubine feast and took the outside room raised into the house. It can be said that everyone in Luoyue City was well known. The day of the concubine feast was very lively, even the prince went to drink a glass of wine.

Such a concubine feast is really unique in Luoyue City.

Although the husbands from other places do not know the reason, they do not hinder their imagination and outstanding communicative power, and soon learned from the mouths of informed husbands.

Mrs. Qiao is already as dark as a pan, and she doesn’t want to lose her momentum in front of this young girl. She said coldly: "I really want to thank my second sister for caring! I heard that my brother is going to be a father soon. It’s time to go to Tao Xixi..."

This remark made people look at each other, and said: According to their knowledge, Mrs. Ji's eldest son should not be married yet, isn't it...

When thinking of this, everyone is showing their faces.

At this time, Mrs. Ji's face became difficult to look at, and forgiving brother is his eldest son. These days, the servant girl in his house is pregnant with his body...Sister-in-law is really poisonous, this is to destroy brother What about your marriage!

Mrs. Ji insisted: "I don't know where the elder sister came from. I forgive my brother for not having a kiss!" But I was thinking about it, and I must pour the soup to the little bitch when I return home. Yes!

The two sisters' three words and two words gave the Luo Yuecheng's tea rest a lot of gossip after dinner.Ms. Ling, the third sister of Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Ji, drinking tea from the beginning to the end, it is really far from the two sisters. .

Finally, Mrs. Qiao finally sat down, and Xiao Fei told the maidservants to go to tea, but did not leave the flower hall.

Successive girls came to sit next to her.

Xiao Fei's temperament was cold and he didn't like liveliness. There were not many chances to see the eldest girl in the royal palace. Regardless of the purpose, this good opportunity to make good relations with Xiao Xiao was really rare.

They spoke around Xiao Fei with a smile, and heard a girl wearing a smokey purple flowers and butterflies flying enthusiastically said: "Longer still remembers playing against Miss Xiao last year, it is really a great benefit, there is a chance that Miss Xiao can Let's have another game with Luer."

Another girl with damask fragrant red jacquard garland busyly echoed: "I was also very impressed with that game, I also specially recorded the chess game, and then replayed several times..."

"Why don't we host a chess club on that day, how about meeting friends with chess?"

"..."

A few girls said a word to me, they were very lively.

If in the past, Xiao Fei may feel that the courtesy with others is too sloppy, not high enough, but now, she responds with a smile, one by one, and treats these girls properly.

The side of Qiao Ruolan was neglected by accident. A flash of annoyance flashed in her eyes. She could only sit on the side of Mrs. Qiao dignified with patience and not letting herself show anything.

"Shi Zi Fei An."

From the flower hall, there was an invitation from the young ladies, and everyone could not help but look at it, only to see the imperial concubine Nangong Yue accompanied the two female families.One of them is an old lady in her fifties, wearing a sapphire with ten sapphire makeup, some gray hair neatly wrapped a round bun, and inserted a jasmine hairpin; Her woman is more than thirty years old, with a lilac-colored silk-encrusted carcass, her round face looks very gentle.

Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Tian from General Tian's Mansion!

The ladies quickly exchanged glances with friends next to them, all moved by their hearts. When Madam Qiao came just now, Xiao Fei accompanied him, but Mrs. Tian was accompanied by Princess Shizi himself.Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Qiao were at a glance at the relationship between Shizi and Shizi.

As soon as Nangong Yue entered the flower hall, the female relatives got up again to salute.

Nangong Yue motioned to them to be courteous, and then smiled: "It's almost time, let's join the party together."

Her voice just fell, and she only heard a clear female voice say, "Wife-in-law, why don't you see your aunt today? Could it be that the aunt's body hasn't been raised yet?"

It was Qiao Ruolan who was sitting next to Mrs. Qiao, who was so dignified, as if she was really curious.However, these three words have revealed a lot, meaning that the little Fang has been ill for a few days.Actually, the little Fang is the mother-in-law.If she is sick, the princess should be ill, rather than entertaining; If Xiao Fang's illness is cured, why didn't he come? Was Shi Zifei not invited, or was Xiao Fang unwilling to come?

Not to mention the inside story, everyone is aware of the dark tide in the palace of Zhennan...

The flower hall was silent, and everyone waited to see how the imperial concubine from the capital would respond, and wanted to take a look at the temperament of the imperial concubine, only to know how to deal with it later.

Nangong Yue smiled faintly and said: "My mother is quiet recently. If your cousin wants to see her mother, it is better to wait for lunch before visiting her mother."

Xiao Fei frowned slightly, not waiting for Qiao Ruolan to speak, and then said: "Cousin Lan, since her mother came back from the Ming and Qing monasteries, she has focused on the Buddha and stayed out. The cousin is so attentive that she will be very happy when her mother meets her cousin. "

Xiao Fei is the daughter-in-law of the little Fang, she came forward to round the scene for the concubine, and no one can say anything.What's more, Xiao Fei's words did not make mistakes. Since the Ming Fangsi returned to the Wang Mansion in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was indeed a simple residence, and he has never participated in a banquet in Beppu... but everyone knows that Xiao Fang is because He was killed, so he didn't want to go out to the banquet.

With such a thought, the reason why Xiao Fang did not come to this banquet today is also somewhat ambiguous. Whether it is because she is not at peace with Shizi or whether she is unwilling to come out to meet guests is possible.

Qiao Ruolan's eyes flickered, and he said embarrassedly: "It's Lan'er Meng Lang."

A little episode passed at once, and the girls led them to the table one by one

The old ladies and husbands were greeted in the open room to share the seat with the concubine, while the girls were in the side hall, Xiao Fei shared the seat with them, entertained as the host.

The people were seated, and the girls in the emerald-colored dresses walked into the flower hall with the water soaked in pomegranate petals, and served the ladies' hands, followed by another girl in the peach-colored dress, holding hot tea, fine wine, and various There are a lot of Chinese dishes in the flower hall.

These maidservants all had low-browed eyes, but they were flexible and flexible, and they behaved gracefully. The female relatives secretly exchanged glances, their eyes showing praise.

Mrs. Tian's heart was a little complicated at the moment, and her life was impermanent.I thought that the son of the world, Xiao Yi, was qualitatively left in Wangdu.Everyone thought that the princess, no. Shiziye, who holds a bad hand, turned his disadvantages into advantages, and now it is quite awe-inspiring. Even Wangye can't suppress it.

In the future, South Xinjiang still had to rely on Shiziye to support it.

Nangong Yue said with a smile: "Some rough tea and light rice, please use it freely."

Only her sentence was considered open.

Mrs. Li, who was sitting diagonally across from Nangong Yue, attentively complimented, "The Princess of the World is welcome! I see that the dishes on this table are really rich, and there are many dishes that I have never seen before. South Xinjiang is different and very refined."

"Mrs. Li praised it." Nangong Yue smiled politely, "Wangdu and Nanjiang are one north and one south. This dish is naturally very different. Wangdu's cuisine is exquisite and the taste is more serious. It’s fresh, sweet, and sweet. It’s about the original flavor and the original flavor.

"The Princess of the World said yes." Mrs. Zhang kept busy and said, "Although the Princess of the World only came to South Xinjiang not long ago, it broke the essence of our southern Xinjiang cuisine."

Everyone complimented a few more words, and the surrounding Nangong Yue was a word of beauty, and the atmosphere soon warmed up.

This meal was lively and lively for more than half an hour, and both the host and the host were happy. After the table was removed, the ladies gave hot tea to everyone, and the tea was not yet cold, and Grandma Lu walked in with a smile, please Everyone moved to the garden to go to the theater and laughed, "Concubine Shizi, ladies, after another joss stick, the gong started."

The female guests got up and walked to the garden with a smile.

The stage is set by the lake in the garden, the lake is full of water, and the lotus fields are good, whether it is viewing or enjoying the scene.

The guests were led to the Linshui Pavilion in the small garden, and then went up to the second floor. The porch had already been set up with tables and chairs for everyone to watch the play on the fence.

At this moment, the direction of the stage sounded, and I saw the heavy make-up of the stage debut, and on the high stage, babble began to sing.In the water, light and shadow, the actors sing and dance, don't have a relaxed and elegant atmosphere.

Queer walked over with the showfolder and said, "Please ask Princess Shizi to play."

In today's banquets, listening to dramas is just to liven up the atmosphere, so all the dramas are ordered. If it is a well-known repertoire, every guest can order a segment, and they can almost watch the whole drama.

Nangong Yue had known for a long time what kind of dramas are on the zigzag, so she didn't open it, so she casually placed a paragraph: "Just the last fold of "Jinghua Yuan"."

Afterwards, she handed over the drama to Mrs. Tian, ​​but Mrs. Tian said politely: "You are old and dazzled, and the princess can order whatever you want."

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Qiao's face on the other side was black. She was an aunt and an elder, but this concubine just let Mrs. Tian take a show first, and it was clearly her own face!

"Mother, it would be better to have your daughter-in-law come to order for you." Mrs. Tian graciously took the drama from Mrs. Tian and ordered a "Drunken Golden Branch".

She closed the play and returned it to Bai Hui, before it was Madam Qiao's turn to order.

Mrs. Qiao almost turned her face in anger and missed the trick, but when she thought about it again, she had an idea, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes.

She picked up the drama and looked at it casually. She smiled and said with a smile: "Then the third fold of a chapter of "Han Kiln" is finished."

Upon hearing the name of the play, the female families were already looking at each other. The play of "Han Kiln" is quite famous in Dayu, and there are many women who like it. The problem is that this is a bitter drama. Since it is a bitter drama, it is inevitable. Cry and cry.

Today's banquet is the first banquet for the Princess of the South King of Zhennan. It stands to reason that you should order some joyful repertoire and more martial arts to make everyone happy.

But no one dared to say anything about Mrs. Qiao, the playboy continued to pass down...

After singing three episodes on the stage, it was the turn of Mrs. Qiao's "Han Kiln".

For a time, the style suddenly changed on the stage, singing a sad and bitter drama.

"Han Yao Ji" said that the daughter of the prime minister, Lu, disregarding the words of his parents, married the poor dartman Li Yuzhong as his wife, and cut off contact with his parents.Later, Li Yuzhong was enlisted in the army, and the Lu family was alone in the cold kiln for ten years before waiting for Li Yuzhong to become a general.Li Yuzhong's big red flower sedan came to pick the Lu family to the General Mansion, but at that time, the Lu family had already been copied, and the Lu family's parents were destitute, and they still needed the Lu family to help them. No longer, he felt ashamed, not worthy of Li Yuzhong, just refused to get on the sedan chair, and had to leave and let her husband marry another married woman who was the right one.In the end, Li Yuzhong was deeply moved, and married Shangfeng's daughter as a flat wife. Since then, the two women have served together as a husband and achieved a good story for a good woman!

The section sung on the stage at the moment is that Lu's sad memories of the year and cried to beg her husband for another marriage...

What Mrs. Qiao means, others may not know it, but Nangong Yue knows it well.This aunt is ridiculing herself for being jealous and can't stand people!

Nangong Yue couldn't help laughing, which was just a play. If he had to care about even this little thing, he would have vomited blood and died.

Madam Qiao is afraid that she is saving her own life.

Some ladies also vaguely guessed what Mrs. Qiao should be suggesting, all whispering whispering to each other, and the atmosphere in the hall was gradually strange.

"Ah……"

At this time, Xiao Fei chuckled and laughed out loudly. Although her voice was not loud, some people around her heard it, especially Qiao Ruolan, who was sitting beside her, could not help turning her head to look at Xiao Fei.

I saw that Xiao Fei was attentively looking at the stage and seeing how she was fascinated, obviously laughing because of the play.

But isn't this a bitter play?

Qiao Ruolan couldn't help but glanced at the stage again. The stage drama who played Lu's stage was singing to the point of feeling hurt and was euphemistic and sorrowful. .

Qiao Ruolan almost thought that Xiao Fei and her were not watching a play. She couldn't help but ask: "Cousin Fei, is there anything funny about this play?" Isn't Xiao Fei happy for others' suffering?

This is not like Xiao Fei's temper...

-Digression-

Seven thousand words per chapter.

I just didn’t divide it into two thousand words a chapter like others, and then said that there are three or four times a day...

Throughout the whole station, the update is more stable than me, more than me, and there is not much sincerity to ensure the quality.
