Chapter 88 A Request

"She won the title of princess and enjoyed some blessings that others can't enjoy, but at the same time, she also has to bear some fate that ordinary people would not bear. This is the principle that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other." Mrs. Yan Seeing Jingshan's expression in his eyes, he said in a calm tone.

But Jing Shan understood the meaning of these words, leaned over to sit next to Mrs. Yan, and asked curiously, "Mother, everyone said that Ajiao's marriage might fall on those gentlemen of the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion. is that true?"

Mrs. Yan raised her hand to stroke Jingshan's hair, and said with a slight smile, "Silly boy! The Sacred Heart is unpredictable. Who can say for sure? However, her marriage is no longer up to your aunt or your grandfather." It's gone."

When they arrived at the racecourse in the western suburbs, they were already late, and there were already many people in the racecourse.A pergola was set up on the side of the racecourse, and there was a lot of people talking.

Xu Jiao walked into the arena holding Mrs. Zhao's hand, and naturally parted ways with Mrs. Yan's mother and daughter.

I haven't seen the eldest princess yet, but I met Mrs. Yuan, mother and daughter first.

Mrs. Yuan and Mrs. Zhao went to the side to talk affectionately, and handed Zhou Qiao to Xu Jiao.

Zhou Qiao was originally a shy and introverted character. Although she grew up in Feng'an, she didn't have many good handkerchiefs. On the contrary, after meeting Xu Jiao, she quickly became acquainted, and she became much more lively in front of Xu Jiao. , There are many things I would like to say to Xu Jiao.

Of course, the most important thing is that Xu Jiao is willing to listen, just like this, she whispered about a certain food she made, from the ingredients to the cooking process, if it was someone else, I'm afraid it would have been difficult to hear. Impatient.

But Xu Jiao has been listening patiently, asking questions curiously from time to time, and even acting as if he is very interested in the food and wants to have a taste.Zhou Qiao was very happy in her heart, and made up her mind to make a delicious meal and send it to Sister Ajiao.

"Princess!" A gentle call came from behind, Xu Jiao and Zhou Qiao turned around and saw a pair of beautiful sisters.It was Wei Wuniang and Wang Shiniang who had met several times before.Now there are also the titled Lords of Shouan County and Shoukang County.

Xu Jiao turned around, greeted the two of them, exchanged a few pleasantries, then Wei Wuniang waved her whip and said that she was going to race a horse, so she turned and left.

On the contrary, Wang Shiniang bowed to Xu Jiaoshenfu in embarrassment, "Wu Niang is a straightforward person. After all, she is a bit bored in the palace these days. Today, I finally got a chance to relax. If you are impolite, please ask Princess Haihan .”

"You don't need to be too polite. Speaking of which, we are also destined. If you don't say anything else, the fate of being born in the same year, the same month, and the same day is already very good. It's just not as good as you and Shou'an County Lord, who have been with the queen mother all the time. Of course, we have to get acquainted many."

"The princess is really upright and magnanimous." Wang Shiniang praised without hesitation, but at the end, there was a little more hesitation in her expression.

Xu Jiao said in her heart that sure enough, she said that she shouldn't just come here to greet, there really was something else.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Wang Shiniang said with some embarrassment, "Princess, to tell you the truth, I have something to brazenly ask the princess for help today!"

"Oh?" Xu Jiao raised his eyebrows, seemingly interested.

Wang Shiniang pursed her lips and smiled, except for the trace of embarrassment, she was quite generous, "Queen Dowager Qianqiu, I don't have much, so I plan to present a dancing right as a birthday gift, but I always feel that the dancing skirt is not quite as good as it should be." Satisfactory. The princess has a great talent for painting, so I would like to ask the princess to see if you can draw a dance skirt for me?"

As Wang Shiniang spoke, she blinked and looked at Xu Jiao earnestly.

She is a typical classical beauty, with willow-leaf eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, bright red lips, smiling before she speaks, gentle and soft.

Xu Jiao likes all beautiful things, including beauties, but at this moment she frowned slightly and fell silent.

Her silence made Wang Shiniang's smile shrink, and she said a little uneasy, "I was the one who was abrupt. Don't be embarrassed by the princess, let's treat this as..."

"I'll give Shinyiang an answer to this matter after tomorrow! To be honest, the queen mother's birthday gift is very important, and I'm afraid I'll mess it up." Xu Jiao cut off Wang Shiniang's words with a wry smile.

After Wang Shiniang heard this, she was surprised at first, and then delighted, "It's very good that the princess agreed to think about it, thank you, princess!"

"Whether it's going to happen or not, I'll definitely give you a confirmation letter tomorrow." Xu Jiao responded straightforwardly.

Wang Shiniang was overjoyed, thanked her again, turned and left.

Xu Jiao looked at her back, thinking for a moment, when Zhou Qiao looked over uneasy, she calmed down, smiled sweetly and hugged Zhou Qiao's shoulder, "Let's go!"

The two turned around and walked away for a while, they met many people on the road, they all greeted Xu Jiao and greeted them one after another, Xu Jiao laughed so hard that his face was almost stiff, so he escaped from Zhou Qiao by "pissing away" .

"Princess." After entering the racecourse, because of three urgencies, the snow who had asked Xu Jiao to go to the latrine came back, met Xu Jiao's eyes, she pursed her lips and shook her head slightly.

Xu Jiao's heart sank slightly, and he raised his brows.

She came here with some hope.If the man she thought was the gentleman who came to Lu Xi's Jiedu envoy's mansion, maybe Xu Wei also came.Therefore, I specifically asked Negative Xue to let her pay attention, but I did not expect Negative Xue to wander around, but got nothing at all.

"Just before the servant girl came over, she met His Royal Highness the eldest princess. She asked the servant girl to invite the princess to come over."

Xu Jiao happened to have something to discuss with the eldest princess, so she went with Lingxue.

When we arrived at the main shed, we saw the eldest princess, who was also wearing a new dress today.The strange thing is that there are many people in the main shed, most of them are high-ranking people in Feng'an City. It stands to reason that when these people see the eldest princess today, they should circle her like bees see flowers.

But today, these people are hiding far away, of course it is because something is wrong with the eldest princess who is sitting by the side, not to mention her complexion is not very good-looking, she is actually sitting by the side—drinking wine, her whole body exudes It's full of the cold aura that no stranger should approach, no wonder no one dares to approach it.

Xu Jiao frowned, and quickly stepped forward. When she reached the eldest princess's side, she slowed down, leaned down, and asked softly, "Mother, what's wrong with you? But is there any discomfort?"

The eldest princess looked up at her with a dazed expression, but she shook her head, said nothing, raised her hand and pointed to the chair beside her, and said to her, "Sit!"

Xu Jiao frowned, and finally sat down.I don't know what the eldest princess asked her to do, is it to let her drink with her?
But the eldest princess didn't let her drink it, she just thought about it for herself, as if Xu Jiao didn't exist at all.

Xu Jiao had no choice but to reach out and hold down the princess' wine pot. When the princess raised her eyes to look at her, she frowned and said bitterly, "Mother, there is something I would like to ask my mother to tell me."

The eldest princess frowned, she didn't scold her after all, and said in a deep voice, "Speak!"

Xu Jiao breathed a sigh of relief in secret, still embarrassed on the face, and told the eldest princess Wang Shiniang's request just now.
