Yao Mengxian smiled at her second sister and wiped the water stains on her mouth from the tea she had just drank with a handkerchief. She did not think that her second sister was helping her. She was probably afraid that they would quarrel here and wait for the princess to come.
, I lost face in front of the princess, and it was also the face of the Duke’s mansion.
But this second sister is a wise and protective person. She is the eldest daughter of the second wife and the biological sister of Yao Mengdie. For Yao Mengxian, this daughter is the only person in the family who has no ill intentions towards her.
It's not that Yao Menglian will help her, but that Yao Menglian won't add insult to injury, and if it doesn't threaten her interests, she doesn't bother to care at all.
Of course, if you underestimate her skills, you are wrong. Yao Mengxian once saw her deal with a woman who was close to the old lady. Yao Menglian calculated carefully for half a month and finally captured the woman.
She even made the old lady take pity on her and received many rewards.
"Third sister, I brought you and fourth sister to the restaurant without explaining it clearly to you today. You won't blame me, right?"
Yao Mengxian quickly replied with a smile, "Second sister, don't think too much, how could I blame you? It's just that there are so many people outside today, some accidents will inevitably happen, so we'd better be careful."
Yao Mengxian is not being alarmist. Accidents are likely to happen in places with many people. However, they should not be in danger on the second floor of the restaurant. However, they are all female relatives and only brought two guards from the house, so they must be careful.
These are.
Yao Mengxian's worry is not unreasonable. Although it is a bit exaggerated to say that the streets are empty at this time, it is still close. Although there are officials on the street below to maintain order, there are still many people standing in front of those shops! The shop's
The front is blocked.
"Meng Lian!" The door of the private room suddenly opened, and a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old came in, followed by two girls.
"The princess is here! Yao Menglian meets the princess!" Seeing the princess, Yao Menglian hurriedly saluted.
Princess Rongjia is the granddaughter of the Emperor and the Empress. She has a rank of second grade and also enjoys fiefdom and food.
"Yao Mengxian meets the princess!"
"Yao's Dream Butterfly Meets the Princess!"
"Everyone is free of charge!"
Yao Mengxian straightened up and saw that she was a beautiful-looking woman, with skin as bright as snow and picturesque features, which compared the two delicate girls behind her to fish eyes.
Wearing a cloud-colored satin dress with colorful flowers and flying butterflies, and a dark-flowered fine silk pleated satin skirt, she made her whole body even more delicate and beautiful. Princess Rongjia inherited the beauty of the eldest princess, and even exceeded it.
"You stay here and I'll go pick up Second Aunt Grandma!" Ming Mo thought that it was almost time and the carriage couldn't come in today. Although he had sent someone to pick up Second Aunt Grandma and the others, they hadn't come yet yet.
come over.
"Huh? Look, isn't this coming? I'll pick them up."
Gu Wan and Sun Xian finally squeezed in.
"There are so many people today, those restaurants and tea shops are definitely going to make a lot of money." Gu Wan entered the private room and let out a deep breath. She really didn't understand why these people were so interested in the first and third class parades.
crazy.
Sun Xian stood at the window and looked out, and found that the view here was pretty good. Gu Chengyu ordered this private room yesterday. If he wanted to book it today, it would definitely not be available. The original words were that even if he
Even if he can't make it into the top three, Gu Wan can still admire the elegance of the top three.
"I don't know if Xiaobao can pass the exam." Although Gu Wan said this, the expression on her face was very calm. She had confidence in Xiaobao, and she was so excited that she couldn't sleep even last night.
Suddenly, there was loud gongs and drums at the other end of the market. Ming Yan quickly leaned down at the window to look, "Ah! It's coming, it's coming!"
"Quick, let me see it too!" Gu Wan also wanted to see the handsome appearance of the number one scholar, more like to see if her little treasure was the number one scholar.
The guard of honor is getting closer and closer, and you can already see the wooden sign held by four people in front of it that says "Quiet" and "Avoid", and the name of the number one scholar. The number one scholar is riding a tall horse with a red silk hanging on his chest.
Gu Wan came this way.
Gu Chengyu held the imperial edict in his hand, stood astride a golden-saddled and red-maned horse, and walked forward while hugging the front. At this moment, he just wanted to go home as soon as possible. He really wanted to cry without tears.
Gu Chengyu and the others burst into violent cheers wherever they passed, especially the women, who rushed to throw their purses, handkerchiefs, and silk flowers on their heads at the people on the horse. Gu Chengyu had no choice but to hold on.
I'm afraid that my No. 1 pick's hat will be knocked off by those wallets, which is really miserable.
"Yulang!" the women cheered. This was the once famous Gu Jieyuan, now the number one scholar. The poem "Qingyu Case" spread throughout the capital, and even spread to the north and south of the country.
Fu Yanshan and Min Feng at the back are already in their prime, and they are really young and talented people. If either one of them were to be shown alone, they would also drive those women crazy. It's a pity that this time with Gu Chengyu and Zhuyu in front, they can't.
So conspicuous.
Flags and drums cleared the way, cheers thundered, and cannons shook the sky. Everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of the champion.
Originally, the most conspicuous person in the parade of No. 1 Scholars was the No. 1 Scholar, because the No. 1 Scholars were generally young talents. But now, the spotlight of the No. 1 Scholar has long eclipsed the No. 2 and No. 3 Scholars.
Those purses and handkerchiefs were thrown over like a blanket, and even Min Feng and Fu Yanshan had quite a few on them. But looking at Gu Chengyu in front, their hearts, which had been robbed of the limelight and were a little aggrieved, instantly regained their balance.
I saw Gu Chengyu constantly dodging those objects, but the purses were still hanging on his body. Gu Chengyu didn't know why those women were so crazy. His head was as big as an ox, and he just wanted to go home as soon as possible.
Just when Gu Chengyu was about to speed up, he was suddenly hit by something heavy and fell on his horse. He lowered his head and saw that it was an embroidered shoe made of moon-white satin, with a plum blossom embroidered on it.
Gu Chengyu was completely speechless. He raised his head and looked up at the shop above. Who threw it? Didn't he know that it would kill people?
"These women in the market are too unreserved. No matter how good-looking Gu Chengyu is, he can't be so careless about his face, right?" Yao Menglian looked down upon the behavior of these women. She curled her lips and thought to herself, after all, she is a little girl.
This family doesn't know etiquette at all.
"I heard that Gu Chengyu has a very beautiful appearance. I would like to see what he looks like." In fact, Princess Rongjia had already heard of Gu Chengyu's name. After Gu Chengyu became Jieyuan, his reputation spread.
Yao Mengxian also put on her veil and stood in front of the window, looking at the guard of honor that was getting closer and closer. Who was it not Gu Chengyu who was sitting on the first horse? Even though she was far away, she couldn't see her face clearly, but her body was as tall as a pine tree.
Zi, you don’t need to look to know it’s him, after all, you’ve seen him several times.
