The mad concubine of the group loves the world

Chapter 57 The Poetry Meeting of Prince Yu's Mansion

Passing through several curved corridors with thick green pillars, and passing several pavilions and waterside pavilions, they came to the back garden of King Yu's Mansion.

The layout and layout of the palace are very similar, there are only three ways and five entrances on the left, glazed green tiles, but behind the layers of rockery, there is something unique.One side of the boundless blue lake is rippling, and the pavilion in the center of the lake is decorated with lights and festoons.

Seeing the crowds of people in the pavilion, it seemed quite lively.Seeing that Xiao Yanzhi was silent all the way, Lu Wanlan gently took his arm and broke the silence first:
"My lord, it seems that many talented people have come here today, and the concubines will have to open their eyes later."

"Start the show?" Xiao Yanzhi had a half-smile on his lips, "My lord sees that you are doing well now."

After finishing speaking, he gently brushed her bare hands away, Lu Wanlan was not annoyed, hearing the strong sourness in his words, the corners of his eyes smiled even wider.

When the two looked at each other, a small boat came rowing, Xiao Yihan stepped up, and Xiao Yanzhi followed closely behind.

"My lord, give me a pull." Lu Wanlan lifted her skirt and stretched out her hand, but she saw Xiao Yan standing on the side of the boat without looking back.

Instead, Xiao Yihan stretched out his big palm towards him: "Sister Lan, be careful, come on, give me your hand."

"Don't dare to bother His Royal Highness Prince Yu." Hearing what his girl said, Chi Zheng understood, and immediately helped Lu Wanlan onto the boat.

In the court, the princes, nobles, daughters, and young people have all taken their seats, and they are exchanging greetings, but they can't hear someone whispering:
"Who is the girl in that small boat? Did His Royal Highness Prince Yu pick her up in person?"

Everyone was amazed when they heard that, and they all looked towards the center of the lake, only to see that the girl couldn't see her face clearly, but the red peony and golden butterfly on her body were shining brightly under the setting sun, and everyone couldn't open their eyes.

"Her clothes are so pretty, they must have cost a lot of money." A noble lady from an unknown family said enviously.

"Hmph! What's the big deal, whoever she is, she deserves to steal the limelight from our Xie family!" The speaker was none other than Xie Minmin's younger sister, Xie Yingying.

Although Xie Yingying was a concubine, she was raised by her aunt's side, loving and growing up regardless of her aunt and concubine.

Her personality is quite different from her own sister's. She is aggressive, outspoken, and quite capable of tricks.Before the nobleman Wang Xueru entered the palace, the two were close friends in her boudoir.Not only are they congenial in temperament, but even the thorn in their eyes is surprisingly the same.

And as the boat got closer, the girl's face became clearer and clearer.

Xie Yingying's face gradually became gloomy: Why is this hag here!

Seeing the three people coming from the small boat, everyone quickly got up and saluted the two princes: "I have met His Royal Highness King Yu and King Yan."

"Excuse me." Xiao Yihan smiled, walked to the red sandalwood desk and sat down.

And Xiao Yanzhi and Lu Wanlan were also seated on the left and right, the most front seats.

The pavilion was intentionally divided into left and right sides, and the princes and noble ladies sat face to face in it, with a light tulle in the middle, hanging in a patchwork order.After sunset, the lamps and shadows are dim, although you can't see the figure on the opposite side clearly, it is even more romantic when you recite poems and write poems.

The arrival of King Yan and Princess Yan was unexpected by everyone present.

It has long been heard that Princess Yan Lu Wanlan does not have a few drops of ink in her stomach, and she has some past with Prince Yu, so she should not appear on this occasion if it is to avoid suspicion.

And a few days ago, Princess Yan thought she was right and donated a large sum of money to those poor and poor scholars.Even the high-ranking and wealthy people here have lost their money in vain, and everyone is complaining to her.

It's only been a few days, and it turns out that husbands and wives come here to participate in the poetry meeting!

The hearts of the couple are really big enough.

Although they were muttering in their hearts, these people didn't say anything. This time they just wanted to use the poetry meeting to pay homage to King Yu.Just express your own thoughts and let him remember yourself, how can you care about others?

However, I have to say that Princess Yan is really gorgeous. As soon as she walked in, all the noble ladies in the capital of Huxin Pavilion lost their brilliance.

The fragrant wind came and tore apart a large piece of the tulle in front of her that was smudged by the candlelight, and Lu Wanlan on the opposite side broke into Xiao Yanzhi's heart like a butterfly.

This is the first time for him, seeing her dressed so ostentatiously, what on earth does she want to do?Is it just the appearance of a woman who pleases herself?
Xiao Yihan, who was sitting in the main seat, saw Xiao Yanzhi's sideways cheeks and frowned to look at the opposite side, he laughed: "Sixth brother, are you looking at the fourth girl from the Xie family?"

Xiao Yanzhi collected his thoughts, raised his eyes and looked forward, only to see that King Yu was looking at him with a half-smile.

Lu Wanlan, who was sitting next to her, heard this question clearly, and glanced at Xie Yingying who was sitting next to her.She didn't seem to expect that she would be mentioned in the conversation between King Yu and King Yan, and she was immediately at a loss.

This Xiao Yihan's ability to sow dissension is really not small.

Before Xiao Yanzhi could answer, Xie Yingying started talking along the pole: "Brother Yanzhi, do you still remember Yingying? If you don't go to Yanbei, I'm afraid Yingying will call your brother-in-law now."

When Lu Wanlan heard this, her heart sank. No wonder that Xie Minmin targeted her everywhere in the palace. It turned out that she and Xiao Yanzhi still had this kind of relationship.

However, from the coquettish tone of Miss Xie Si, I'm afraid it's more than simply wanting to call Xiao Yanzhi's brother-in-law.

A faint and weird smile immediately appeared on the corner of Lu Wanlan's mouth: Then I'll take you.

"Brother Wu Wang was joking." Xiao Yanzhi slightly curled the corner of his mouth, completely ignoring Xie Yingying's question, "Brother Wang is just looking at the silk yarn in front of him, it is very delicate."

"So that's how it is." King Yu smiled unruly, "I think so too, Sixth Brother, you just accepted Sister Lan as your concubine, why do you still covet girls from other families?"

Xiao Yanzhi smiled slightly, then poured a cup of tea and tasted it quietly.

Because of being blocked by the tulle, Lu Wanlan could not see Xiao Yan's expression, and they stopped talking.

King Yu cleared his throat, and said: "Today's poetry meeting, to meet friends through poetry, you don't have to be restrained. This king doesn't have any good ideas, so you can use this portrait in the pavilion as the theme to compose poems."

Accompanied by the sound of the servants clapping their hands twice, the entire pavilion was surrounded by dozens of silk portraits.

From the clothes on, the portrait looks like a young girl. Although her brows and eyes are not drawn, she is very lively.

"His Royal Highness Prince Yu, is this portrait of yours unfinished?" The one who spoke was Li Aotang, the only son of Dingbeihou.

Everyone searched for their reputation, and saw this man in white clothes, Shengxue, holding a folding fan and looking at the woman in the painting with a sinister smile on his face.

Although Lu Wanlan couldn't see that person's face clearly, she could still hear it.This Li Aotang is the second brother Lu Yunfan's big client, not only talented, but also romantic.Before he was 20 years old, he already had more than a dozen concubines.It is said that even his father's concubine failed to escape the clutches of this man, which can be described as a beast with a human face.

Compared with this dear friend, Lu Wanlan suddenly felt that the image of the second brother had become taller.

"I can't even see it!" During the banquet, another weak student stood up suddenly, with pink lips and lips, looking like an exile.

It was Shen Meng, the eldest son of Marquis Pingnan, but this person and his name ran counter to each other, and it had long been an open secret that he had a habit of cutting sleeves.

Seeing him dancing with his lotus fingers, he scanned the portrait: "The girl painted by the prince is dressed differently, but it can be seen that they are the same person~ Since they are the same person, the eyebrows and eyes are imprinted in the prince's heart~"

After finishing speaking, he covered his mouth and gave a shy "giggle" smile.

The two immediately sang together again, causing Lu Wanlan's stomach to churn. Unexpectedly, this Prince Yu really had a lot of friends.

Once the atmosphere relaxes, talented scholars and beautiful ladies begin to get together and chat.

Lu Wanlan was also surrounded by many noble ladies, most of whom were flattering and sycophantic.

"The queen concubine is really radiant today!"

"Yes! Madam, this skin is really good, how do you take care of it, it can be broken by blowing~"

My sister is not an old woman, is it normal to have good skin?

There was really nothing to talk about, so Lu Wanlan could only nod casually to deal with it, but there were countless question marks in her heart, is this a poetry meeting?
But at this time, Xie Yingying's side was deserted and deserted. Seeing Lu Wanlan being favored by all the stars, she couldn't help feeling annoyed: "Isn't she just a princess? What's so great! My sister is still a noble concubine!"
