Chapter 10: Flower Dynasty-4

Not long after the first month of the Shang Dynasty passed, it only took a few dozen days for the flowers in the capital city to bloom.

The birthday of hundreds of flowers is a good time, and it is not even half of the spring of the flower dynasty.

Thousands of purples and reds are draped in brocade, and they are decorated with laborious decorations to congratulate the Flower God.

A decree came from the palace that Concubine Mei would invite ladies from various families in the capital to come to Qishan Mountain to enjoy the flowers and worship the Flower God. She also specially asked the aunt in charge of the palace to come to the General's Mansion to deliver a message to me.

I certainly understood what Concubine Mei meant. I wanted to treat the lady in charge well and promised to attend the banquet on time that day.

"The empress has said that a etiquette officer will be sent to the mansion to pick up the young lady that day. Then she and the empress will ride in a carriage to Qishan." With a smile on her face, the aunt said, "This is a blessing that only Princess Wangshu can have.

."

At this time, the entire capital city and even the enemy country of Daliang in the southwest knew that the eldest daughter of General Jianwei's mansion was going to marry Prince Jing Qi Jingqin. In their eyes, I became the most enviable woman.

"Presumably Princess Wangshu will also go to Qishan Mountain to worship the God of Flowers, right?"

"That's natural. Not to mention the princess, all the female relatives of the dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital will be there by then. The empress also wants to take this opportunity to meet the young lady."

I nodded: "Okay, I will be waiting in the house on that day."

When my aunt saw that I was well-behaved and sensible, she nodded happily. It seemed that Concubine Mei was inconvenient to leave the palace to see me directly, and it was inconvenient to announce my entry into the palace, so she always sent her bodyguards to observe my attitude.

No matter it is for the sake of the country or the country, a mother will always think more about her children.

After seeing my aunt off, seeing that it was still early, I thought about going shopping with Yue Bai. My father and brother have been busy with government affairs recently, so General Wei Shen was responsible for my safety when I went out.

After spending a few days with Wei Shen, I found that he is an extremely boring and shy person, which is quite interesting to me.

I have been sad about Qi Jingqin's proposal of marriage for a long time. I have been bored in the house all day long, and Yuebai doesn't dare to disturb me. Today, seeing that I am interested in going out, I happily dress up for me.

I only took Yue Bai and Wei Shen with me this time. Firstly, I thought it would be cumbersome to bring so many people. Secondly, now that I know who the person who is secretly following me is, I don’t need to take more precautions.

Yue Bai and I went to a jewelry store to pick out jewelry.

When the shopkeeper saw us arriving, he came up to us with a smile and said, "Miss, I haven't been here for a long time."

Yue Bai and I often go to this store to buy jewelry, and the shop owner is considered a regular customer.

I smiled, nodded, and asked, "I was a little busy the past few days and couldn't spare the time. Have you got any new jewelry recently?"

The shopkeeper is considered to be a member of the powerful circles in the capital. Many official wives and ladies in the city come to his place to patronize business. He is well aware of the gossip among the powerful.

Hearing what I said, the shopkeeper smiled knowingly, and while instructing the clerk to get the jewelry for me, he said with a smile: "Today is different from the past. Miss is now Princess Jing, so it is naturally different from what she was in the boudoir."

After hearing this, Yuebai was afraid that I would be unhappy because of this matter, so he quickly stepped forward and replied: "Hey, shopkeeper, please don't talk nonsense, my lady has not yet left the cabinet!"

I was a little dissatisfied after hearing this. I finally calmed down and went out. When I heard this news again, I stopped talking and looked down at the jewelry on the counter.

The shopkeeper is a sophisticated and tactful person. When he saw that we didn't seem to be happy about marrying the royal family, he stopped continuing the topic: "Hey, this is just a small talk."

It happened that the waiter brought a batch of jewelry from the back room, and the shopkeeper quickly took it and presented it in front of me, saying: "Miss, please look, this is a batch of jewelry that just came in from Da Liang. You are the first to see them in the whole Beijing."

Where are the guests!”

I became interested and said, "Oh? Really?"

I summoned Yuebai to look at these expensive jewelry together. They were said to be the latest jewelry, but there were only a few styles. Looking left and right, there was no trace of novelty.

The shopkeeper saw that I was chatting away in every possible way, so he picked out a dark red gilt hairpin and handed it to me. He said with a smile: "Miss, please look, this is a new hairpin from Da Liang. It is inlaid with

The deep red gemstone is used by the royal family of Daliang, and only the dignitaries of the capital of Daliang can use it. Now that General Jianwei has pacified the southwest, and Daliang has become a vassal state of the Celestial Dynasty, this deep red gemstone has become the only thing that our common people in the Celestial Dynasty can use.

Accessories that you can spend money on. And here, miss, look at the workmanship of the gold-plated butterfly. It is natural for a beautiful lady to wear light makeup and heavy makeup, but if you have such a treasure

The hairpin is pinned in the bun, which makes the young lady even more stunningly beautiful. No girl in Beijing can be as beautiful as the young lady."

I took the treasure hairpin and looked at it carefully. After listening to the shopkeeper's words, I put the hairpin in my bun. Yuebai held the bronze mirror so that I could look at it. I felt happy no matter how I looked at it. I smiled and said, "Yuebai, do I look good like this?"

"

Yuebai nodded and said: "Young lady is already beautiful, but wearing this hairpin engraved with gold and hundreds of butterflies is even more stunning!"

The shopkeeper and the waiter were also full of praise and said: "We have been operating the store for more than ten years, and we have never seen anyone so beautiful!"

I looked at the hairpin carefully in the mirror, and suddenly I saw Wei Shen behind me. He was standing behind me blankly, looking blankly at the rouge jewelry in the store. I smiled and teased him, saying: "Hey! Wei Shen

, you would rather stare at some uninteresting jewelry without even looking at me, am I not good-looking?"

Wei Shen was startled, and his face turned red. He glanced at me hastily, then quickly lowered his head and said, "The general will not dare."

I smiled and turned to look at him and said, "Then do you think I look good like this?"

He still didn't raise his head to look at me, and his ears were all red.

He has never been promiscuous with women, and is only interested in bows, crossbows, guns, sticks, swords and spears. Recently, Yue Bai and I often tease him like this in our house. Even though we have been teased many times, he is still so shy every time.

I smiled and said, "Okay, I'm just teasing you. You've been with me for almost half a month, and you still can't say a nice word. How will you get a wife in the future?"

Yue Bai and the shopkeeper both laughed out loud, but Wei Shen still stood there blankly. I felt bored, so I bought the hairpin and left the shop.

The three of us walked aimlessly on the street, and unknowingly arrived at the moat.

The scenery on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is pleasant, and there are many restaurants and flower houses stationed here. It is only in the afternoon, and it is not yet evening, and the sounds of singing girls can be heard from the flower houses.

I came up with a plan and said with a smile: "It is said that the singers in Miaoyin Pavilion have beautiful voices and very good looks. It's not as good as..."

Yuebai quickly understood what I meant. We looked at each other and smiled, and said to Wei Shen: "General Wei has been training with my father in the military camp since he was a child, which is why he has such a dull temper.

In this way, life-long events will be delayed. Why don't I take you to Miaoyin Pavilion today to have a good time, maybe life-long events will be solved like this!"
