As soon as she returned to the princess's house, Yun Shang walked to Hua Jing's courtyard, wanting to tell Hua Jing that she was back. As soon as she reached the door of the courtyard, she heard the sound of "crackling" things being thrown inside.
Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, thinking, "What kind of song is this?" and walked in.
"Princess Huiguo is here." As soon as the maid standing at the door saw Yun Shang, she quickly raised her voice and said loudly.
The sound inside stopped, Yun Shang smiled slightly, and said to the maid, "I just came back from the palace, and I was about to come and tell the emperor that I am back. What is the emperor doing?
If it's inconvenient, I'll come later."
Hua Jing's voice came from inside, "Shang'er, come in."
As soon as Yun Shang walked in, she saw the broken pieces on the ground. Yun Shang was stunned and said in shock, "Sister Huang, what's wrong with you?"
Hua Jing snorted and did not answer. He just asked Yun Shang, "You are so happy in the palace today. What did you do?"
Yun Chang cautiously raised her eyes to look at Hua Jing, who was frowning and looking unhappy, and said softly, "I'm not happy at all. My father actually wants to marry Chang'er to that Wang Jinhuan. When I look at him, he looks like
Chang'er didn't like the carefree look at all. Fortunately, Chang'er suddenly remembered what the abbot Wu had said to Chang'er before, saying that Chang'er should not get married before the age of eighteen, otherwise there would be a bloody disaster. His father saw Wu.
With the abbot's personal instructions, I no longer forced Chang'er."
Hua Jing frowned when he heard this, but he was thinking in his mind that Wang Jinhuan and Prince Jing had always been good friends. If Yun Shang married that Wang Jinhuan, she would have an extra Prince Jing as a backer. In any case, this would be good for herself.
Adverse.
Thinking of this, Hua Jing pulled Yun Shang and said, "Wang Jinhuan is indeed not a good husband candidate. I heard that although he is not married now, he has a lot of concubines. For such a troublesome person, you
If you marry her, you will definitely suffer a loss."
Yun Shang nodded, "Yes, although Wang Jinhuan saved my life, there is no need to pledge myself to him." After a pause, he carefully raised his eyes and glanced at Hua Jing and said, "Sister Huang, let me see.
You seem a little unhappy, did any servant make a mistake and make you unhappy?"
Hua Jing glanced at Yun Shang, frowned and said, "Yesterday, that monk gave my mother-in-law a calligraphy test, but today it was spread throughout the imperial city, saying that Abbot Wu's direct disciple was trying to test her calligraphy, and called me a bad man.
Call me mean to my mother-in-law."
"Ah?" Yun Shang stared at Yun Shang with wide eyes, "But there were only a few of us present yesterday. Who is so bad as to spread this matter everywhere? Sister Huang, we can't let it go so easily.
Spare him."
Hua Jing stared at Yun Shang for a long time before saying, "I asked someone to check just now. It was the housekeeper who went back and told his wife about it. As a result, his wife went out to buy groceries in the morning.
This matter has spread to everyone.”
"Really?" Yun Shang lowered her eyes, covering up the flash of light in her eyes.
"Then what are you going to do?" Yun Shang asked again.
"How to do it?" Hua Jing snorted coldly, "Rumors stop at the wise. If I rush to clarify now, it may only make the messages worse. I have already asked people to go to the border to inquire about the Prince Consort. As long as
When the time comes to bring back the news that the Prince Consort is safe and sound, the message will be broken without any attack."
Yun Chang smiled quickly and said, "What my sister said is that there is no need to argue with such a villain. Let's just speak with the facts. The old lady really likes the Buddhist scriptures that Chang'er sent over. These days, Chang'er
Go to the old lady's place more often, and say more nice things in front of the old lady. Everything will be fine for your family and your family. As long as the old lady approves of you, then the rumors outside will be meaningless."
Hua Jing nodded without responding, holding her forehead with a tired look on her face. Yun Chang saw this and said quickly, "Since sister is busy, Chang'er will leave first." After saying that, he left.
When Hua Jing heard Yun Shang's footsteps gradually disappearing, she smiled coldly and said, "I didn't expect that even after staying in this house for so many years, I couldn't compare to a few bad books given by a little girl. Yun Shang can't.
At the age of fourteen or fifteen, he knows how to win people's hearts. Isn't it remarkable in the future? Keeping such a person will only be a disaster to me. I must get rid of him as soon as possible. If he doesn't get rid of him for a day, I will feel uneasy.
"
Qing'er, who was standing behind her, quickly responded, "Yes, I know."
In a blink of an eye, it was time for Hua Jing to hold a small banquet. Hua Jing had put a lot of thought into this small banquet. As she said before, Yun Shang was involved in basically the entire preparation. The banquet was held in Qianxin Pavilion.
The Qianxin Pavilion is a separate courtyard. I heard that the scenery is beautiful, but few people have been there. Many people want to take a closer look, and they don’t know what means Huajing used to bring the Qianxin Pavilion.
This small banquet was held so that many talented people and beauties were full of expectations.
Generally speaking, the small banquet was held at noon, but Hua Jing set the time in the morning, so Yun Shang got up early and followed Hua Jing to Qianxin Pavilion to make final confirmations.
As soon as the sky dawned, someone rushed over. Yun Shang sent someone to take them to an elegant bamboo forest hut to rest temporarily. When everything was ready, the guests were invited to enter.
There is a lake in the Qianxin Pavilion. The lake is cold all year round and is filled with light mist all year round. Being in it makes you feel like a fairyland, which is very consistent with the main theme set by Hua Jing for the small banquet - floating life and a dream.
Guests came in one after another, and in the mist, there was a faint sound of music, playing the song "Flying Immortal".
"It's so beautiful here..." Yun Shang heard the compliments coming one after another, and couldn't help but smile, and said to Qin Yi, "I often don't understand the logic of these people. They can't see anything, so what's so beautiful about it?
?" Just as he was talking, he heard a voice interrupting suddenly.
"Ah, ah, ah...where is this? Luo Qingyan, come closer to me. I can't see you anymore. I can't see anything. How can I play this?"
It's Wang Jinhuan. Yun Shang raised the corner of her mouth slightly. This person can really ruin the atmosphere. However, just now he seemed to be calling... Luo Qingyan? Luo Qingyan, isn't the name of Prince Jing? Could it be that, Prince Jing
Coming too?
Yun Shang felt a little surprised. Didn't Prince Jing never attend these romantic banquets? Why did he suddenly come here?
"Princess, come this way. Princess Hua Jing is already waiting for you at the Huxin Pavilion." A maid hurried over and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Yun Shang. She raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead.
Only then did Yun Shang come back to her senses, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be there right away."
When they arrived at the Huxin Pavilion, even Yun Shang couldn't help but admire it. Just now, it was as if there was a veil in front of her eyes, but now she suddenly saw very clearly. However, only in the Huxin Pavilion could she see
It's very clear, but when I look around, it seems to be separated by something. There are clouds of fog over there. This feeling is like being in the clouds.
"Shang'er, the little banquet is about to start, why don't you come over quickly?" Hua Jing waved to Yun Shang, Yun Shang nodded and walked towards Hua Jing, "Sister Huang, this place is so beautiful, you were clearly there just now
It's in the fog, but suddenly it seems like we're not in the same world, but we can still see the fog..."
There seemed to be something wrong. Yes, Yun Shang suddenly realized that standing here, he could clearly see the people in the mist, their expressions and movements. However, if you didn't pay careful attention, you wouldn't have noticed.
Hua Jing smiled and said, "This is the most peculiar place here. Well, the guests will be coming soon, so you should take a seat first."
Yun Shang nodded and sat down under the main seat.
Then someone walked out of the fog, each one of them marveling at this strange sight. Hua Jing looked at their expressions and couldn't help but smile proudly at the corner of his mouth.
Yun Shang looked at how no one seemed to have discovered the secret of the mist. She frowned and looked at Hua Jing, but saw a bit of pride in her eyes, as if she had everything under control.
"Luo Qingyan, Luo Qingyan, look, you can see clearly here, can't you see too clearly? It's so strange..." Wang Jinhuan's whirring voice sounded again, and Hua Jing stood up.
, walked towards them, "Uncle."
Prince Jing nodded and did not answer. Hua Jing did not care either and said with a smile, "Hua Jing feels very honored that your uncle can come."
"Is that Prince Jing?" "Oh my God, I can actually see Prince Jing so close." There were many women whispering in all directions. Prince Jing casually walked to the seat opposite Yun Shang and sat down and said, "Anyway,
Huan wanted to come and have a look, but he didn't receive the invitation, so I brought him here to play."
When Hua Jing heard this, she was slightly startled. She smiled and said to Wang Jinhuan, "I was negligent and forgot to send the invitation to the prince. Next time, I will personally deliver the invitation to the prince's house."
"Who is that prince? Why is Prince Jing so kind to him? Could it be that Prince Jing is in short sleeves with that prince?" The soliloquy of a woman behind him reached Yun Shang's ears, and Yun Shang was stunned.
I couldn't help but want to laugh, but I just looked at Prince Jing's eyes that seemed to be resting on me, and I didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so I lowered my head and raised a faint smile.
The music gradually started to sound, and everyone woke up from the beautiful scenery one after another, found their seats and sat down. When the seats were almost full, Hua Jingcai raised his hand and said with a smile, "We are very happy today."
I am honored to host this small banquet for everyone. I hope you will like it. It is a casual banquet. You don’t need to be restrained and just have fun."
Yun Shang felt eyes falling on her. She raised her eyes and looked in the direction of the eyes, and saw a familiar face, Noila Mo.
Seeing him, Yun Shang remembered what Hua Jing had repeatedly told her to remember, which was to entertain Noila Mo on her behalf at today's small banquet.
Thinking of this, Yun Shang couldn't help but curl up her lips. It was really, really interesting. It seemed that the show was about to begin.
"The scenery in Qianxin Pavilion is very beautiful, so the first thing to do at today's small banquet is not to compete in writing, and we are not going to compete in martial arts. Let's take a tour of Qianxin Pavilion first. However, how about all the talented and beautiful ladies?
It is easy to get together, so naturally we should have a good time to compare. There are some word puzzles hidden in this Qianxin Pavilion. While enjoying the beautiful scenery, you can also look for the word puzzles. Whoever finds the most word puzzles can solve them smoothly.
If so, there will be gifts later... Last time, our gift was a hotel in the imperial city. This time, our gift will definitely not be smaller than the last time. I will wait and see how everyone performs."
Hua Jing leaned on the chair and said lazily.
A restaurant? It's really a very generous offer. It has beautiful scenery and beauties. If you are talented, you can win a big gift. No wonder everyone says that Princess Hua Jing's little banquet is extremely popular.
After hearing this, everyone started gearing up and eager to give it a try. Hua Jing looked at everyone's reactions, a flash of pride flashed in his eyes, and said with a smile, "There are also some delicacies around the lake for everyone to take. Now, let's start, Hua Jing
Here, I look forward to everyone’s results.”
"Luo Qingyan, Luo Qingyan, there is something delicious. Come with me quickly..." Wang Jinhuan's eyes lit up when he heard the words. He quickly took Prince Jing's hand and disappeared into the mist.
Then, everyone dispersed and went to see the scenery and look for word puzzles. Only Hua Jing, Yun Shang, and Noila Mo were left.
"Master Mo, Hua Jing is really busy today. Please forgive me for not taking good care of you. To express my apology, I will let the imperial sister take you around." Hua Jing stood up and walked to stand in front of Noila Mo.
Certainly.
"Princess, you're welcome." Noila Mo smiled, turned around and looked at Yun Shang, her brows filled with tenderness.
If it weren't for those things in her previous life, Yun Shang would definitely have been deceived by such tenderness. However, if she believed in such an illusion in this life, she would have lived an extra life.
"Shang'er, there's nothing else to do here, just go and walk with Mr. Mo." Hua Jing turned around and said to Yun Shang.
Yun Shang nodded, lowered her head, as if she was very shy, walked gently to Noila Mo and said, "Master Mo, please come this way."
Noila Mo quickly followed.
Hua Jing watched as the figures of Yun Shang and Noila Mo were slowly shrouded in fog. He turned his eyes and saw the figures of the two people appearing in the fog. Noila Mo had her hands behind her back and seemed to be trembling slightly. And
Yun Shang kept her head lowered, as if she was shy.
Only then did Hua Jing raise the corners of her mouth, her eyes filled with murderous intent, "Ning Yunshang, I want to see how you can escape from my hands this time."
"Princess... Wei Chen's name is Mo Jingran. I wonder if the princess still remembers Wei Chen?" Noila Mo's voice sounded from behind Yun Shang, softly and with a bit of probing.
Yun Shang smiled and covered up the sadness in her eyes, "I remember, how could I not remember?" After a pause, Yun Shang said again, "You played a song for me during my hair-raising ceremony, even though I
The princess forgot what the song was, but it still sounds pretty good."
"Does the princess like it? If the princess likes it, then Wei Chen can often play the flute for the princess in the future." Noila Mo's voice seemed a little excited.
Yun Shang smiled slightly and did not respond. She just pointed at a tree beside her and said, "Hey, Mr. Mo, is there a crossword puzzle here?"
"Huh? What?" Noila Mo seemed to have no reaction, and was a little stunned, but she thought about it the moment she asked the question, "Ah, a word puzzle..."
Noila Mo stretched out her hand and was about to take it, but she saw a hand quickly taking away the fruit with the crossword puzzle written on it, and took off the parchment with the crossword puzzle written on it, "Hey, Luo Qingyan,
Look, there’s an anagram on it? It’s really annoying to put the anagram on my favorite orange, No, here you go.”
Yun Shang raised his eyes and met a pair of cold eyes. Yun Shang smiled quickly and said, "Uncle Huang..."
Prince Jing nodded slightly, stretched out his hand and unfolded the parchment in his hand, "Turn a blind eye, cover your mouth and listen. It should be, pray. Right, Mr. Mo?"
Noila Mo was stunned for a moment and said quickly, "Yes, yes, it's just Qi. Your Majesty is so talented, I admire you."
Prince Jing did not speak, but gave Yun Shang a faint look, then turned around and walked past Yun Shang.
"I almost got it. The word puzzle just now was quite easy to solve." Noila Mo looked a little annoyed, sighed slightly, turned around and looked at Yun Shang and said with a smile, "Princess, Wei Chen was here just now.
I saw a crossword puzzle at that time, but I didn’t know what it was for. Wei Chen should remember where it is, so why don’t the princess follow Wei Chen to have a look.” (To be continued)
