Chapter four hundred and eighty sixth really know how to play
Gu Chengyu smiled sincerely on his face, but in his heart he was speculating on this person's purpose.
The purpose of bringing him to Prince Jing's Mansion last time was probably not pure. Lu Chen and Prince Jing might be in the same group.
Gu Chengyu's heart moved, and he could try to find out what he was talking about.
"Brother Lu donated so generously, and I will always remember it in my heart."
Lu Chen was a little confused, so he donated generously? Could it be that he was talking about Mr. Dongyuan?
"It's just a small effort, why bother? But it's a pity that the cultural gathering held by Mr. Dongyuan happened to be during the imperial examination, so you missed a good opportunity."
Gu Chengyu smiled after hearing this. Lu Chen's confused look didn't seem like he was faking it, so he probably didn't know.
"It's really a pity. It seems we can only wait until next time."
Bian Yunyi, Tong Qiutang and others on the side quickly greeted Lu Chen. After several people greeted each other, the two people looked at each other. Unexpectedly, Master Gu was still on good terms with Mr. Lu?
Lu Chen thought that now was a good opportunity. His predecessor, Prince Jing, wanted to invite Gu Chengyu to the palace as a guest. He said that the lyrics Gu Chengyu had given him last time had already been filled in with lyrics.
It had been mentioned to him twice that he didn't want to know the purpose of Prince Jing's invitation to Gu Chengyu, and he didn't want to ask why Prince Jing didn't invite him personally. He wanted to see how long it would take before Prince Jing would hide it from him.
"Huh? The prince of Qin State is here!"
Gu Chengyu hadn't seen the master's house yet, so when he heard someone shouting, he turned his attention.
I saw a man wearing a silver-white round-neck robe embroidered with gold bamboo leaves and two followers entering the house.
This man has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, but he has a good appearance. But his sharp eyes, coupled with the thick sword eyebrows, give him an aura that is not angry but powerful, which is intimidating.
Gu Chengyu couldn't help but nod. Such a proud man who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth was born with the bearing of a superior.
Not to mention that he has been cultivated deliberately since he was a child. From here, you can see the heritage of the family.
"Thank you all for taking the time to attend this flower viewing party. I was caught up in trivial matters just now and neglected you. Please forgive me."
Qin Min, the prince of the Duke of Qin, bowed his hands to everyone present to express his apology.
"Brother Qin! As the host today, but you didn't show up until now, you will have to drink a few drinks later, right?"
Some of them were familiar with Qin Min and immediately started joking.
"Okay! Okay! I will punish myself with three cups later and I will never break my promise!"
Qin Min looked around among these people and saw familiar faces, so he planned to turn around and arrange the banquet for today.
Who would have thought that when he turned his eyes, he suddenly saw an unfamiliar young man sitting in the corner of the room.
The young man has a long body and a jade-like face. He is so good-looking!
He remembered that several young officials were invited to this year's flower viewing party. The young man in front of him should be Gu Chengyu, who is in the limelight these days!
He looked at Gu Chengyu and then looked at the people sitting with Gu Chengyu.
They were all acquaintances, and they were all relatively promising young men in the capital, except of course Zhu Pang.
However, why is Lu Chen and Gu Chengyu together? It seems that the two of them are quite familiar with each other.
Qin Min raised her legs and walked in the direction of Gu Chengyu. After all, the visitor was a guest. Since the eldest princess's mansion had sent a message, there was no reason to neglect her.
"Lu Chen! You actually come to the flower viewing party today? Didn't you dislike such flower viewing parties in previous years?"
Qin Min first said hello to Lu Chen, but when talking to Lu Chen, he focused on Gu Chengyu.
"Come and join in the fun!" Lu Chen said with a smile as an explanation.
"Is this Mr. Gu? It's better to be famous than to meet him and admire him for a long time!" Qin Min cupped his hands towards Gu Chengyu and said.
When Gu Chengyu saw that his master had come in person, he naturally wanted to return the favor.
I just didn't expect that Qin Min looked very arrogant on the outside, but in fact he was a person with an exquisite face.
"Exactly! Prince Qin is indeed as talented as the rumors say." Gu Chengyu also returned the gift and complimented him as usual.
After a few pleasantries, Qin Min left. After all, he was mainly the one to entertain the male guests today, and there were many things waiting for him to arrange.
His father actually became the hands-off manager and left all these things to him.
Thinking of this, Qin Min was also very helpless.
Gu Chengyu followed the others and sat there for about half an hour before being informed that the flower viewing party had begun. Everyone moved to the Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake by the small lake.
By now, Gu Chengyu felt a little bored, and he planned to say goodbye to his host's house later.
In fact, the flower viewing party is just a name. There are indeed many flowers and plants in the yard, including many rare and expensive flowers, but everyone's attention is not on the flowers.
As Gu Chengyu walked, he looked at the pots of flowers placed on the roadside.
Not to mention, along the way, fairy flowers, gorse, peonies, etc. were in bloom, and these flowers were well taken care of.
As expected of the eldest princess's mansion, there are more than a hundred of these types alone.
The male guests are not very interested in flowers, but if they are female guests, they will naturally be delighted to see these flowers.
Gu Chengyu pulled Zhu Pang, who was also bored, and whispered: "Is this flower viewing party so boring? I don't think you want to see Miss Kong today."
Gu Chengyu just took a look at it. It was impossible for the male guests and the female family members to stay together to enjoy the flowers. How could Zhu Pang see his fiancée so easily?
Zhu Pang chuckled when he heard this, "What? Are you still impatient? This has just begun! Do you know what is behind this wall? That is where the female family members are. When the time comes, open the hanging flower door and put a gauze curtain in the middle. This will be interesting.
Woolen cloth!"
Gu Chengyu was speechless after hearing this. Isn't this unnecessary? What's the point of doing this? Rich people really know how to play.
Seeing that Gu Chengyu still looked confused, Zhu Pang smiled at Gu Chengyu ambiguously, "You will know later."
"It's dizzying after seeing so many flowers, why don't we all come and play pot throwing?"
Suddenly, someone from the front proposed to throw pots to add to the fun. After all, just admiring the flowers was too boring.
They are not those girls' families who just talk about clothes, jewelry, rouge and gouache whenever they get together.
Gu Chengyu originally planned to find a corner to sit for a while, or to make friends with two people he liked.
He was wondering why Min Feng didn't come to this flower viewing party. Logically speaking, he was Xia Qing's disciple and he was not married. Why didn't he receive a post from the flower viewing party?
He was still a little confused, but in a blink of an eye, he saw Qin Min coming with his entourage.
However, there was a man beside Qin Min, who looked like he was a guest today.
Gu Chengyu took a closer look, wasn't this Min Feng? It seemed that he was late for something. He was just wondering that since he was invited, Min Feng should not miss it.
When Lu Chen saw Gu Chengyu looking at Qin Min in a daze, he hurriedly gave him a hand.
"Jin Yu saw an acquaintance, right? Is that Min Feng, a disciple of Xia Capital?"
Lu Chen followed Gu Chengyu's gaze and saw Min Feng walking beside Qin Min.
