No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 336 Winter Flower Festival (Part [-])
Early in the morning, there was an endless flow of people and vehicles at the gate of a courtyard outside the city.

This was originally the other courtyard of a princess in the previous dynasty. Because the princess loved wintersweet, thousands of wintersweet and various plum blossoms were planted in and around the courtyard.In the Dasheng Dynasty, the other courtyard had been idle for a long time, and the court repaired it a little, and it became a place for Shangyong dignitaries to enjoy plum blossoms.

The snow that has been falling for more than two days has not yet melted, and the blooming yellow wintersweet is covered with dots of white snow, which has a different style.

Luo Junyao jumped off the carriage, and the people who hadn't had time to enter the gate of the other courtyard couldn't help but stop, and looked sideways at the regent princess.

Because it is still the mourning period of Empress Dowager Zhu, the female relatives who came to the flower fair are dressed very elegantly.Naturally, Luo Junyao was no exception. She was wearing a moon-white cloak, the edge of the hood and the neckline were inlaid with snow-white fluff, and the soft white fluff made her small face more delicate and beautiful.

"I have seen the regent princess." Everyone came to their senses and quickly bowed to salute.

Luo Junyao looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "There is no need to be polite, everyone go in."

Everyone answered yes, then turned around and continued with what they had just done.There were also people who couldn't help discussing in whispers, sneaking glances at Luo Junyao from time to time, but Luo Junyao didn't care, and walked in with Feng Jianlanyin, Qin Yao'er and Linglan.

Because it is not a private courtyard, although the courtyard is huge in size, there are not many buildings.At a glance, only a few houses can be seen hidden in the bamboo forest in the distance, behind the rocks in the garden.Also because the area of ​​this place is really not small, although many people came today, they didn't feel noisy.

As soon as Luo Junyao and his party stepped into it, someone greeted them, "I have seen the regent princess."

Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows slightly, just when others thought she didn't know the person in front of him and wanted to introduce her, he heard Luo Junyao said leisurely: "Mrs. Meiyanghou, it's a pleasure to meet you."

A middle-aged woman in her early forties came up to her. She was also wearing a low-key light brown dress today, and only a few plain jade hairpins were inserted on her head.If the time and place were changed, people who don't know her would probably never think that this is Mrs. Hou.

Mrs. Meiyanghou was also stunned, and quickly smiled: "I didn't expect the princess to remember the minister's wife, I am really flattered."

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "I met Mrs. Meiyang Hou at the mid-autumn night banquet in the palace and in the palace a few days ago, how could I not remember it?"

Mrs. Meiyang Hou smiled, didn't say anything, just said: "Everyone is listening to Fengxuan behind Mei Lin, and the court lady leads the princess over."

Recognizing people is also a science. There are as many dignitaries in Shangyonghuang City as there are crucian carp crossing the river. Even people who are good at socializing may not be able to remember them all.Although Madam Meiyang's family is a marquis, she should not be ignored, but she and the regent princess have never met, not even spoken to each other.

Coupled with the fact that the princess regent was young and there were some rumors of arrogance before, Mrs. Meiyang Hou really didn't expect Luo Junyao to know herself.

"It's work."

With Madam Meiyanghou leading the way, a group of people marched mightily to the plum grove in the garden.

After passing through the huge garden and plum grove, it really became lively gradually.As soon as he stepped into Tingfengxuan, Luo Junyao heard a laughing voice calling: "Jun Yao."

Luo Jun shook his head and looked over, only to see Princess Changzhao who was smiling at her.

The youngest daughters of Princess Changzhao, Xu Xinyu and Qin Ning, the owner of Huaiyang County, and Qin Ning raised eyebrows at her when she saw Luo Junyao, with a playful look on her face.

Luo Junyao immediately apologized to Mrs. Meiyang Hou, and quickly walked towards Princess Changzhao, "Sister Changzhao."

Since marrying Xie Yan, she has also dealt with Princess Changzhao several times, and she feels that this princess is also a very good person.Or it should be said that Emperor Gaozu and the Empress Dowager are good at raising their daughters, and Princess Changzhao and Princess Changling are not the kind of royal princesses who rely on their status to be domineering.I heard that the late Princess Changshu also had a gentle personality, but it's a pity that Luo Junyao left too early and didn't have much impression.

Princess Changzhao said with a smile: "When I went out, Ah Ning said you wouldn't come." Now Princess Changling takes care of the Empress Dowager in the palace every day, and entrusts her two children to Princess Changzhao.When Princess Changzhao came out to participate in the flower festival, she would naturally bring Qin Ning with her.

Luo Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "The posts have all been delivered to your door, and they are still under such a name. It seems inappropriate for me not to come."

Princess Changzhao said: "You are the princess regent, so you don't like to come to ordinary banquets. But today, it's better to come and have a seat. These people are really hardworking. If I didn't receive the post, I wouldn't know There is such a thing." Princess Changzhao was obviously not very happy during the words, but she had to come because of the reputation of mourning the Empress Dowager Zhu.

"You two, don't greet your aunt yet." Princess Changzhao ordered her daughter and niece with a sideways head.

Xu Xinyu is still very calm, she is not familiar with Luo Junyao but she also likes this little aunt very much, so she immediately said crisply: "Xinyu has seen aunt,"

"..." Qin Ning instantly regretted that she followed her aunt to the banquet today.

Luo Junyao chuckled lightly, reached out and stuffed a white jade bell into Xu Xinyu's hand, "Good boy, I didn't give you a greeting gift before, now I will make it up."

Xu Xinyu blinked and put it away with a smile, "Thank you, aunt." She obviously didn't think as much as Qin Ning. Although they were not much different in age, there was nothing wrong with calling her aunt because of the difference in seniority.

Qin Ning stared at Luo Jun and shook, "What about mine? You never gave me a greeting gift!"

Luo Jun shook his hands and said, "No, you don't even want to call me aunt."

"..."

Princess Changzhao looked at the angry Qin Ning, and couldn't help raising her hand to pat her, "Okay, don't mess around, why don't you sit down and wait for people to watch the joke?" They stood here, listening There were indeed quite a few eyes in Fengxuan that fell on them either explicitly or secretly.

Princess Changzhao pulled the three girls to sit down, and heard that the Fengxuan was open on all sides, and one could see the scenery outside when sitting inside.Every corner of the room is burning with silver frost charcoal, and it is not too cold to sit inside.

Naturally, Princess Changzhao sat in the position with the best view. As long as they turned their heads on one side, they could see the lush bamboo forest not far away and the garden and artificial lake made of rockery and strange rocks on the other side.There are seven or eight wintersweet trees outside Tingfengxuan, the yellow flowers are crushed by the snow, and they are pretty and pitiful.

Because the snow had already started to melt, water droplets fell from the branches from time to time and hit the girl standing under the tree on the face. The icy cold water droplets made the girls scream, which made this bleak and indifferent winter day much longer. points vitality.

Luo Jun sat by the window, resting his chin, looking at the scenery outside a little bored.From time to time, people came to greet her and Chang Zhao, and they all dealt with it casually.

Seeing her like this, Princess Changzhao knew that she was bored, and when she looked at Xu Xinyu and Qin Ning, they both looked bored.

Princess Changzhao sighed helplessly, "You children, you just can't sit still. We haven't arrived yet, don't sit here with me, go out and play."

Xu Xinyu looked at her mother obediently, "I am with mother."

Princess Changzhao nodded her daughter's forehead and said with a smile: "Then cheer up."

Xu Xinyu whispered: "I don't know what to think, I ran out of the city to suffer from the cold." She couldn't help pulling the cloak on her body. A house with earth dragons is comfortable.

Qin Ning nodded again and again, "That's right."

Princess Changzhao looked at Luo Junyao with a smile, and asked, "What's Jun Yao thinking?"

Luo Jun shook his eyes before recovering and said: "It's good to go out for a walk, squatting in the room every day is not good for your health."

Qin Ning couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said: "Who is in poor health, not even you." Luo Junyao jumped around every day, why was he squatting in the room?
Luo Junyao ignored her, but looked at Princess Changzhao and said, "It was Mrs. Meiyanghou who led me in just now. I remember that the Meiyanghou's mansion has always kept a low profile. Why did she take the initiative to get involved in this matter?"

Princess Changzhao smiled and glanced at Mrs. Meiyanghou who was circling among the guests not far away, and said: "She didn't take the initiative to meddle, but she was entrusted by others."

"Entrusted by others?" Luo Jun raised his eyebrows.

Princess Changzhao said: "This Mrs. Meiyanghou is the daughter of Zhou Yuan, the doctor of Guanglu, and the cousin of Mrs. Chengenhou. In addition, the old Mrs. Meiyanghou was also the husband of the emperor's brother, so he can be regarded as a hardcore royalist. party."

It was only then that Luo Junyao suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."
