Although Biyun didn't know what the eldest lady was doing, she knew that it must have a purpose, and the matter had not yet shown signs of success, so the eldest lady could not say anything and did it with all her strength.
Shen Mingzhu drank a glass of cherry juice. The cherries were specially stored in the ice cellar and tasted good.
At this time, Princess Lian came over in a hurry. When she saw Shen Mingzhu, she dismissed her entourage and asked them to guard her. She walked to Shen Mingzhu and whispered something in her ear.
When Shen Mingzhu heard this, a hint of joy appeared on his face, "Is it true?"
Princess Lian nodded and said with a smile: "It's absolutely true."
Shen Mingzhu smiled and said to Princess Lian: "Princess, you have to bear a lot of trouble. Let's organize a small piano, dance and song competition."
Princess Lian said shyly: "Why am I tired? I have never been so happy. Then should we ask Feng Qinran to borrow her palace?"
Shen Mingzhu shook her head, "Of course it's not necessary. Let's go find Princess Xiao and borrow it from her."
Because Marquis Wan Qing came here a few days ago, Princess Xiao said goodbye to the emperor and accompanied Marquis Wan Qing back to the capital. She should be back today.
Princess Lian was about to leave immediately. Shen Mingzhu stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
The two of them each took their maids with them to Princess Xiao's palace.
The three largest palaces in Ganquan Palace are actually a large palace complex.
The main palace of Ganquan Palace where the emperor lived, together with the side halls, had ten courtyards, a dozen large palaces, and several small palaces. Princess Qin lived on the east side of the palace, and Princess Xiao lived on the west side.
Even if it is half, there are several courtyards and it is very spacious inside.
Especially the west side where Princess Xiao lives, there are exquisite gardens, small bridges, flowing water, rockeries, and waterwheels, which are very pleasant.
Princess Qin also gave that place to Princess Xiao to show her eldest sister's love for her younger sister.
But Princess Zheng'er is not so well off and has to live somewhere in the back with her father.
Shen Mingzhu and Princess Lian followed the palace maid all the way to the depths of the garden where they shared flowers and willows. They saw a small boat on the lake, where they were drinking and talking.
Shen Mingzhu looked at the sky. Although it was afternoon, the sun was still scorching. It shone brightly on the water surface, making people dizzy.
These two people actually went to the boat to drink, and they built a boat after all.
After all, the lake in this garden is still small. It was only dug to cultivate aquatic plants such as lotuses, water chestnuts, and water chestnuts. It is very cramped for boating.
But the man and woman in the boat seemed to be enjoying themselves very much and were not bothered by the weather at all.
Shen Mingzhu stood on the small bridge and watched Wan Qinghou and Princess Xiao playing chess and drinking.
The maid hurriedly stepped forward to report.
Princess Xiao smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, come here."
Shen Mingzhu did not move, but smiled and said: "The boat is so small, it can't hold three people."
Princess Xiao said naughtily: "It doesn't matter, I can give up my seat to you."
Shen Mingzhu smiled but did not answer, obviously not wanting to go up.
Princess Xiao smiled, but did not force her. She said to Wan Qinghou: "Let's go."
Wan Qinghou finished the glass of wine and said regretfully: "The sun is not strong enough, so the wine is not mellow enough. If it were stronger, it would have a better taste."
