Ruanjiaobao was forced to marry by Lord Hou again

Chapter 26 No.20 The Polo Club After the Spring of June
Two months passed in a blink of an eye, and Jiang Lanshu was much quieter after that day, and she was not as active in serving the old lady as before.

It's not "broken cans and broken", it's just that my mood is too low, and most of the time I think about being bored in the house.

Time flies, the spring thunder explodes, and the spring rain continues for several days. As soon as the weather improves, the Shunchang Palace sends invitations, inviting all the ministers and family members to have a drink at the Palace.

Early in the morning of this day, Shen Pan'er and Shen Yue'er made an appointment to go to the Jinghe Hall to say hello.Both girls wore new clothes.

Shen Pan'er was wearing a long silk jacket with light yellow magnolia flowers, and she was still wearing an exaggerated tassel hairpin on her head; Shen Yueer was wearing a simple moonlight dress, with only one silver hairpin on her head, she was sober and elegant.

After the greetings, Shen Pan'er told Mrs. Shen that Princess Shunchang invited Mrs. Hou to play polo at the polo field.

Mrs. Shen held the hot tea that was still steaming with white mist, and said with a light smile, "Don't you guys like playing polo the most? Just go after you haven't played for several months. What are you talking about?"

Shen Pan'er pursed her lips, glanced at Ye Lingwu behind her who had "broken off" for almost two months, and replied: "The eldest aunt said that the juniors in the family will all go, so we can't favor one over another."

In fact, Qin Mingyu was afraid that Shen Pan'er would yell about not taking Shen Yue'er with her again, and worried that Shen Ci would make excuses not to go, so she said this on purpose, and Ye Lingwu was not included in the "all" in the words.

Mrs. Shen knew that the two little girls in the family had some conflicts.

In the past few months, Ye Lingwu has been sending food to Shen Pan'er's Xiaoxiang Courtyard, just to make peace, but Shen Pan'er is very angry and insists on confiscating it.

Mother Xuan was very good at observing words and expressions, and knew what Old Madam Shen meant when she didn't express her opinion, so she gave a step up at the right time and teased: "The third girl will say that one favors one more than another, why doesn't the old lady just follow the third girl's wishes and let the girls fight?" In polo, it is also good to have long experience.”

Mrs. Shen heard the "girls" that Nanny Xuan deliberately said, and said silently: "Since you ask girl Ling to go, isn't Lan Shu also a junior in the family?"

Hearing this, Shen Pan'er frowned, stared at Jiang Lanshu unfriendlyly, pouted and said, "Sister Lanshu, if you want to be together, then let's do it together. Anyway, the carriage prepared by my aunt today is big enough, and one more person is fine." OK."

After wandering in the carriage for about half an hour, they arrived at the polo field of Shunchang Prince's Mansion. The field has a wide lawn, and even the horses prepared for the field are rare breeds, which is very grand.

The people who came to the appointment got out of the carriage and walked to the high platform, where there were several juniors of the palace standing on the high platform to welcome the guests.

King Shunchang has two sons and one daughter, the two sons are as hopeless as their father, not to mention that they don't have important positions in the palace, and they are idle all day long.Needless to say, the only daughter, Liu Feiyan, was famous for being domineering and domineering in the early years, but now she is quite dignified and self-sufficient.

The whole family only has the false name of nobility, and they are glamorous on the surface. In fact, if they are not friendly with Ningbeihoufu and Fuguogongfu, there is really no such palace in the capital.

It was a cool spring day, and Liu Feiyan was wearing a coral cloak, staring at the entrance eagerly.It was only because Ningbei Hou Mansion replied that Shen Zhan would also attend the polo meeting.

No, as soon as the carriage of Ningbei Hou's Mansion stopped, Liu Feiyan, who was still gloomy at first, strolled happily with her skirts up.

"I've met my aunt!" Liu Feiyan saluted politely, looked at Qin Mingyu who came down first, and smiled like a flower.

But gradually she couldn't laugh anymore, until all the juniors in the Shen family were all together, Shen Zhan didn't show up either.

Qin Mingyu could clearly see Liu Feiyan's disappointed little appearance, took her hand and patted her and said, "I know that Shunchang Prince's Mansion is hosting a banquet today, but he can't get away temporarily while he is on official business. After finishing the work, it won't take long to get here from the palace."

Liu Feiyan smiled again when she heard the words, and walked towards the high platform while talking and laughing with Qin Mingyu on her arm.

The younger generations of the Shen family behind were not happy about it, so they responded to the saying "what should come will not come, and what should not come will come instead".

Shen Pan'er gave a soft "bah" and said: "If I knew it, I wouldn't have come. Seeing Liu Feiyan is very annoying. I know that I miss my big brother all day long, and I don't even look in the mirror. As a daughter His integrity and self-restraint are gone.”

Jiang Lanshu was inexplicably shocked when she heard the words, and always felt that Shen Pan'er's words were not just about Liu Feiyan.

She reluctantly hooked the corners of her mouth and said, "Girls, let's go in instead of standing outside."

Shen Pan'er ignored her, looked around, frowned and said, "Where's the second elder brother? I haven't seen him for a while, where did he go?"

Ye Lingwu also looked left and right, and replied: "Yes, I saw Second Young Master Shen in the carriage just now, why did he disappear in a blink of an eye?"

Shen Yue'er raised a finger and slowly pointed towards the carriage over there, and said: "I just saw that the second elder brother went to the Rong family's carriage, probably looking for the Rong family's elder brother."

Shen Pan'er crossed her waist and said displeasedly: "Second elder brother, really, don't say anything when you leave, otherwise we'll go over and talk to Rong Yu, so we don't have to watch Liu Feiyan's contrived face here."

The palace maid led the visitors towards the high platform.

Qin Mingyu was sitting at the place closest to Princess Shunchang, and while you were talking to each other, Liu Feiyan beside her was still pouring tea for the two of them.

The tables on both sides were full of refreshment fruits, and the female relatives were chatting lively with each other.

Shen Pan'er, Shen Yue'er, Ye Lingwu, and Jiang Lanshu took their seats casually.

The capital city is a circle, and the nobles are also a circle, and the aristocratic circle is also divided into levels. Like Shen Zhan's return to Beijing banquet last time, the guests who came to the meeting were all first-class princes, nobles, and powerful officials.

The guests who came to the polo club today can only be regarded as second or third class. After all, King Shunchang is just a fallen prince, and the important officials in the court will not take him seriously. The sister who kissed a little bit can still give her face.

Of course, there is also Lou Zhaorao, the daughter of the crown prince and Taifu, and Liu Feiyan's close friend.

Ye Lingwu has listened to her several times, and her impression of her is similar to Mrs. Lou's, that is, there is so much ink in her stomach that her brain is also filled with ink.

Just like now, Ye Lingwu obviously didn't provoke her, but Lou Zhaorao taunted her inexplicably.

"I didn't expect Miss Lingwu to come today. I thought you wouldn't dare to show up on such an occasion." Lou Zhaorao covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "Did you copy the poem that Master Wei punished you for copying yesterday?"

The last time Master Wei recited the Book of Poems, he happened to pick up the one that Ye Lingwu didn’t know. She just didn’t recite a single word. Master Wei was so angry that she punished her to copy the Book of Songs from beginning to end a hundred times.

Shen Pan'er couldn't get used to Lou Zhaorao's eccentric tone, and even forgot about the fact that she and Ye Lingwu hadn't reconciled, and blurted out: "Why do you care about Sister Lingwu? Miss Lou wants to help you. Sister Lingwu?"

"Forget it, even if I want to help, I don't seem like it. My calligraphy was taught by my father who is a prince and a tutor. Master Wei once praised my calligraphy as the best in private schools." Lou Zhaorao said arrogantly.

"Isn't it just that the words look better, and I don't know what you're talking about." Shen Pan'er rolled her eyes, turned her head and ignored her.

Because it was early, the guests hadn't arrived yet, and the polo club didn't start for a long time.

After half an hour, Shen Pan'er couldn't stay any longer, so she said she wanted to take a walk around.

Ye Lingwu and Jiang Lanshu also hurriedly got up to follow, but Shen Yue'er was the only one who could sit and wait stupidly.
