Everyone was stunned when they saw Prince Jing, wearing a dark purple robe, stepping in from the garden gate. He had handsome features, sharp eyebrows, a high bridge of nose, thin but tightly pursed lips, and sharp and deep eyes, unconsciously.
It gives people a sense of oppression. The man in red following behind him is even more beautiful. He does not look like a woman but is more beautiful than ordinary women, but there is a somewhat frivolous smile on his face, his eyes are on Yun Shang and
Prince Jing patrolled back and forth.
Yun Shang frowned. This Prince Jing knew how to make enemies for her. Yun Shang looked at the young ladies behind her with somewhat infatuated eyes, and felt a little annoyed in her heart. She could see it.
Well, these women did not stay in the courtyard where the female guests were active. Instead, they accompanied the old princess and talked to several old women. Perhaps they were waiting for Prince Jing to come to pay her birthday to the old princess.
The old princess asked her to bring these young ladies out, and these women were probably a little displeased. It was just because she was a princess, so she had no choice but to do so. Maybe they also wanted to see how she would become Princess Jing.
What is so special about women?
"Tsk, tsk, Luo Qingyan, you are really unkind. I don't even know when you and Princess Yunshang have reached the point where you and Princess Yun Shang will not marry anyone else. Oh my god, oh my god, such words will come from you.
As he said it, I really should go take a closer look to see if the snow that fell last night was red." Wang Jinhuan's exaggerated look attracted a few women to look at him slightly. This man looks very good.
It's so beautiful.
Yun Shang curled her lips thoughtfully, "I don't know when the emperor's uncle fell in love with me so deeply... Uncle Huang, if you say this, you won't be afraid that Mr. Wang will piss you off."
?The performance was really overdone." After saying this, Prince Jing did not give him a chance to argue. He turned around with a smile and greeted the ladies behind him, "Ladies, let's go play in the garden in front.
"With that said, he took the lead in bypassing Prince Jing and Wang Jinhuan and walked out of the door.
Just when he was passing by Wang Jinhuan, he quietly stretched out his hand and flicked a needle in front of Wang Jinhuan. Wang Jinhuan didn't know what was going on, so he took a step forward, screamed in pain, and rushed towards Prince Jing, "Luo Qingyan,
Are you plotting against me again?"
When everyone heard the sound and turned their heads, they saw Wang Jinhuan hugging Prince Jing, looking at Prince Jing with his lips pursed and a bit of moisture in his eyes. He really looked like he was still wanting to talk.
The people present were all ladies from the ladies. They had never seen such a scene before, so they quickly blushed and hurriedly followed Yun Shang out of the garden.
For a while, only Prince Jing and Wang Jinhuan were left in the garden. Wang Jinhuan looked confused. He was just thinking about performing well in front of many girls, but he didn't expect a sudden pain in his feet. He felt that he couldn't make a fool of himself alone, deliberately.
I roped in Prince Jing, but now, something seems wrong.
Prince Jing looked at the dots of silver light on the ground, raised his eyebrows slightly, stretched out his hand without leaving a trace, and destroyed the silver needle.
"Didn't you say you were going to celebrate the old princess's birthday? What are you doing here, why don't you hurry in?" Prince Jing said coldly.
Wang Jinhuan curled his lips, stood up, and walked out of the room. Before anyone could walk in, he heard him shouting loudly, "Princess, I'm here to see you! Did you miss me..."
Yun Shang lowered her head, thinking secretly in her mind that she should investigate Wang Jinhuan carefully. Although this person does not seem to be doing his job properly, he is just the son of the Minister of War, but he often stays with Prince Jing. It is really difficult to let him go.
No one doubts.
"Ah, is it like this? Princess, don't be too sad..." It was Jing Wenxi who suddenly spoke, but his words were clearly words of comfort, but they sounded a bit like schadenfreude.
Yun Shang sighed quietly, "It doesn't matter. In fact, Chang'er has known for a long time that the emperor's uncle asked his father for a marriage just because he was afraid that the matter between him and the prince would be revealed, and the rumors would hurt the prince, and Chang
Chang'er has always been weak and doesn't like to go out, so he is naturally the best shield. But these words and what you just saw, Chang'er hopes, you have forgotten by now. The emperor's uncle has a bad temper, and he is especially protective of the prince.
If he finds out, I'm afraid Chang'er won't be able to protect you."
Everyone said yes again and again, but the woman who had refuted Jing Wenxi earlier turned her eyes and looked at Yun Shang with a bit of inquiry in her eyes.
"This is the younger sister of the Crown Princess, Wen Ruyu. She is a concubine, but she is extremely favored and has a bad temper." Qianyin's voice came over again.
Yun Shang nodded, turned to Wen Ruyu with a smile and said, "Miss Wen is extremely beautiful. She is the most beautiful woman Chang'er has ever seen."
Wen Ruyu raised her eyebrows, but turned her eyes away and did not answer.
A ruthless look flashed in Jing Wenxi's eyes, and he smiled innocently, "Sister Wen is the most favored daughter of the Wen family. She is naturally very beautiful. The jewelry that Sister Wen wears is no better than that of any of our legitimate daughters.
Well, every time there is a banquet, Mrs. Wen always brings Sister Wen with her. Sister Wen will definitely marry a good family in the future. She is much luckier than us, so she doesn’t like to talk to others, Princess.
Don't be angry."
Yun Shang squinted her eyes slightly. It seemed that Jing Wenxi looked innocent and was restrained by Wen Ruyu, but he didn't seem to be so worried. This paragraph pointed out Wen Ruyu's
She is a concubine, and it makes the legitimate daughters present feel that Wen Ruyu, as a concubine, has no worse jewelry than theirs. Unintentionally, it also makes other women feel a bit malicious towards Wen Ruyu. Finally, Wen Ruyu is beautiful.
The Wen family intended for her to get in touch with other young masters from other aristocratic families, and wanted her to marry a wealthy family. Moreover, they were arrogant and thought that they could marry well, so they didn't even pay much attention to the princess themselves.
A high-ranking family can even ignore the princess, so of course it is the royal family. Although there is no explanation, the meaning is very clear. He wants to set up a hurdle for Wen Ruyu so that she cannot enter the palace.
Yun Shang smiled and said, "Miss Wen's character is very real." She stopped talking and walked towards the female guest's garden.
Jing Wenxi saw that Yun Shang remained silent even though he said this. He thought that Yun Shang must be angry with Wen Ruyu, so he felt a little happy in his heart and followed Yun Shang forward closely.
Although most of the people in the courtyard where the female guests were resting were Yun Shang's acquaintances in her previous life, Yun Shang had never interacted with them in this life. She could not step forward rashly, so she just found a place to sit and rest for a long time.
Only Jing Wenxi was very interested and kept talking to Yun Shang. He talked about the clothing and jewelry styles currently practiced in the imperial city and his brothers and sisters at home. Yun Shang just listened and did not answer.
After sitting for a while, it was already early for the banquet to begin. The palace sent the Crown Princess to invite everyone to the main hall for dinner.
When Yun Shang arrived at the main hall, she saw that the main seat was on the second floor, where King Shunqing and the old princess were sitting. Next to King Shunqing was Prince Jing, and next to Princess Shunqing was Wang Jinhuan.
Prince Jing saw Yun Shang from a distance. He stood up, went downstairs, and walked towards Yun Shang. He smiled and said, "Why are you coming here now? Come on, come and sit here. The emperor said he wanted to see you."
Woolen cloth."
The uncle mentioned by Prince Jing is Prince Shunqing.
Yun Chang lowered her head and followed Prince Jing to the guest seat with a submissive expression. She greeted Prince Shunqing and Princess Shunqing and said, "Shang'er has met Prince Shunqing and Princess Shunqing."
King Shunqing laughed loudly when he heard this and said, "Okay, okay, okay. I didn't even have a chance to say hello to you on New Year's Eve. Now Chang'er is so big. The last time I saw you, you were still a little kid. Qingyan
After being alone for so many years, I thought he had no intention of getting a wife, but I didn't expect that he would just fall in love with you, a little girl. The person he fell in love with Qingyan is naturally very good."
Prince Jing curled up his lips and said with a smile, "My nephew didn't mean not to marry. In fact, before I met Yun Shang, no one had ever moved my nephew's heart. My nephew felt that he could meet someone in this life.
It is not easy to be able to be with a woman who is happy to your heart. My nephew is very lucky."
Yun Shang felt goosebumps secretly rising all over her body, but her face remained calm. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a secret voice, "No matter what, I still have a cooperative relationship with you. I have helped you."
So many times..."
It seemed that before he finished speaking, Prince Jing made no movement. Yun Shang narrowed his eyes slightly. This was threatening her. Yun Shang smiled softly and said, "It's Chang'er's blessing."
"Where is Lin'an?" the old princess asked softly.
Yun Shang lowered his head and took a sip of tea. Ning Lin'an is the son of King Shunqing and the heir apparent.
King Shunqing smiled and said softly, "We are arranging a performance. There are many people today, so I asked him to watch carefully, just to be afraid something would happen."
The old princess nodded.
Yun Shang raised her head and saw a high platform on the opposite side. Behind the high platform was hanging a red cloth with a big Chinese character "Shou" embroidered on it. Because she was upstairs, she could see the movement on the high platform very clearly.
.
A woman in red clothes walked up to the high platform holding Qin from behind, her face covered with a white gauze scarf, but her enchanting eyes made everyone present couldn't help but lose their minds, and there was a sound of gasping.
.
Wang Jinhuan stood up suddenly, "Oh my god, it's Qianqian..." Then he turned to look at Yun Shang, "Mr....Princess...it's Qianqian..."
Yun Shang frowned, raised his foot and kicked Wang Jinhuan. Under the cover of the red tablecloth, no one saw Yun Shang's movements. Wang Jinhuan gasped violently, and Yun Shang faintly retracted his foot, but when he retracted his foot
, touched the other foot.
Yun Shang frowned and raised her eyes to look at Prince Jing, only to see that his eyes were full of amusement.
"This woman's name is Qian Qian? Who is she? Why does she look so charming?" The old princess took her eyes back from the woman in red on the high platform, frowned, and muttered.
Wang Jinhuan smiled very flatteringly, sat down quickly, and said to the old princess, "My dear princess, this is a very hot beauty in the imperial city now. My nephew has spent a lot of money, but he has not been able to meet her. Unexpectedly,
I actually saw it here..."
Princess Shunqing was very clear about Wang Jinhuan's character and naturally knew what he meant, so she frowned and said, "So, this is a brothel girl?"
"Hey, hey, princess, you can't be like this. People say that heroes don't care about their origins. This beauty, let alone her, is it a beauty or a beauty with talents? Princess, this Qianqian girl's piano
Both chess, calligraphy and painting are excellent, there are few in the imperial city that can match them, so just listen to the piano." Wang Jinhuan screamed, his mouth full of defense of the girl Qianqian.
Princess Shunqing shook her head, "You're a hairy monkey. I've told you a long time ago not to run to those places all the time, but you never listened. It would be better if you had the stability of Prince Jing."
"
As Yun Shang listened, she felt that Princess Shunqing seemed to dote on Wang Jinhuan very much. Yun Shang recalled some memories from her previous life in her mind, but found nothing.
Prince Jing's secret message came from beside him, "Princess Shunqing and Wang Jinhuan's grandmother are sisters, and they have a close relationship."
No wonder, Yun Shang secretly remembered it in her heart.
The music of the piano gradually began to play, and everyone was immediately attracted by the music. The people on the stage played a song "Plum Blossoms". The music was quiet and quiet, and a lonely and cold atmosphere gradually filled people's hearts. The music of the piano was ethereal, as if
There was a faint fragrance floating in, and the cold fragrance penetrated into the heart. Gradually, the music gradually became louder, high-pitched and enthusiastic. In front of everyone's eyes, there seemed to be a plum tree blooming proudly in the cold, still standing tall in the wind and snow. Then, the music gradually recovered.
Calm, as if the plum blossoms have calmed down after the wind and snow, sending out their faint fragrance.
The song ends.
No one spoke for a long time, as if they were still meditating on the tune. Yun Shang smiled slightly, gestured to the people on the stage, and then said softly, "It's really the sound of nature."
Only then did a chorus of cheers rang out.
The woman on the high platform stood up and gave a slight salute. Someone moved the piano down, but she did not step back. Everyone's eyes were full of expectations. What will Miss Qian Qian perform this time?
I only heard a burst of music coming, but it was "Blooming Lotus".
Wang Jinhuan's eyes were wide open. The woman in red on the stage stretched out her hand and bent down. Wang Jinhuan quickly asked, "Is she going to dance?"
Yun Shang turned her eyes and looked at the guests at other tables, only to see that they were also looking straight at the woman in red on the stage. Yun Shang slightly curved her lips. The girl Qian Qian was very good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting in the imperial city.
It's not a secret, but no one has ever seen Miss Qianqian dancing.
The people on the high platform looked extremely charming with their hands and feet raised. After taking a few steps, they saw lotus flowers blooming everywhere they walked. Then, the fragrance of lotus flowers spread over them.
"Lotus grows step by step, and it is so breathtakingly beautiful..." There was a faint voice of admiration, and a dark light flashed in Yun Shang's eyes. The more beautiful it is, the more poisonous it is.
Everyone seemed to be intoxicated by this wonderful dance. Yun Shang heard the music and quietly changed the tune. The woman on the high platform raised her hands, and the veil on her face fell down, revealing a face with stunning beauty.
, her skin is as good as snow, and her eyebrows are picturesque. She is obviously extremely pure, but she has a bit of charm.
Yun Shang heard the sounds of cups and bowls falling to the ground one after another, and felt a little relieved.
After a while, Qian Qian retreated, but everyone seemed to be still immersed in the dance and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time. On the high platform, a new troupe had already started singing, singing "Dragon Playing with Phoenix"
》.
"Wonderful." Prince Jing raised the corners of his lips, his eyes fell on Yun Shang, who had always been quiet, and said calmly.
Wang Jinhuan swallowed his saliva and sighed, "It's stunning in the world. It's stunning in the world. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep for a long time."
Yun Shang had been paying attention to Prince Shunqing, but she saw that he seemed to have not seen anything and his face was very calm. The maid was just serving food. Prince Shunqing called a maid and turned around to give some instructions. Princess Shunqing looked at it with a smile.
Wang Jinhuan said, "It's beautiful, but you better not think about it. Your grandma will definitely break your legs."
Wang Jinhuan pouted, took an angry sip of water and said, "It's okay, I'll just go find her quietly." After saying this, his eyes fell on Yun Shang, thinking to himself, anyway, Yun Shang
The princess is the master of the girl Qianqian. It is better to benefit yourself than to benefit others. Then you just have to please Princess Yunshang. And now that the princess and Prince Jing are so close, it shouldn't be a problem to use her subordinates.
Thinking of this, I felt extremely happy. I smiled and said to the maid beside me, "I want to eat sweet and sour pork."
Princess Shunqing smiled and said, "You monkey, I have already prepared it for you."
Wang Jinhuan quickly said coquettishly, "The princess is the best to me."
As they were talking, an old man in his fifties came up and saluted King Shunqing and Princess Shunqing, "I have met the prince."
King Shunqing nodded, "What's wrong with Bachelor Wu?"
Yun Shang looked at the man carefully, and after wandering in her mind for a week, she remembered that it was Wu Qi, a Hanlin scholar.
Wu Qi smiled and said, "I just heard my wife say that Princess Huiguo gave the old princess a jade birthday peach. Although my wife is a woman, she still has some experience in identifying treasures. She said that looking at the water color and carving craftsmanship,
It should be the handiwork of Master Jing'an. The lower official has been admiring Jing'an for a long time, and this jade longevity peach has been famous for a long time. He just heard that this longevity peach has been in the palace of the Xia Kingdom, guarded by the secret guards of the Xia Kingdom, but he didn't want to.
It actually fell into the hands of Princess Huiguo. The official couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, so he hurriedly came to ask for a look."
"Oh?" King Shunqing raised his eyebrows. Even though he was slow, Yun Shang could tell that he was suspecting that the jade longevity peach was fake.
Yun Shang smiled slightly and said, "Chang'er didn't know that Shoudao had such a legendary origin, but it was not given by Chang'er. It was given to the old princess by the queen mother. As for why it was in the hands of the queen mother,
There is no way to know about Shang'er."
King Shunqing nodded, "Where did Xu pay tribute? Princess, where did you put the longevity peach? I will send someone to get it."
The princess smiled and said, "Everyone said that the longevity peach was priceless before, so I put it in the secret compartment. I asked Grandma Chen to get it." After saying that, she called Grandma Chen over and asked her to get it.
.
After a while, the sandalwood box was taken out, and the old princess personally took out the longevity peach, but she frowned the moment she took it out, "What's wrong with this jade longevity peach? Why does it seem to have bloodshot eyes inside?"
