Chapter 16

She didn't know good from bad at all, so she wouldn't say anything unless told to.

He Lingyao was a little frustrated, but she also liked this feeling. She tried her best to find a topic to resonate with everyone.

"I saw that Miss He entered the palace with the Duke's wife today. I don't know if the lady wearing the blue dress is the daughter of the Duke's mansion?"

"I don't know who this elder sister is?" He Lingyao didn't like the fact that Luo Jingyao was getting too much attention from the crowd, but the status of all the girls present today was higher than the other, let alone her.

"I'm Liu Yueqing, the daughter of Uncle Anle." Liu Yueqing raised her chin and looked at He Lingyao disdainfully.

"It turned out to be Ms. Liu, who has admired her name for a long time, and seeing her is worse than being famous." He Lingyao said with a salute.

"Oh?"

"I heard that Sister Liu is proficient in all aspects of poetry, poetry, zither, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is a perfect and wonderful woman. I can meet you today. Sister Liu's face like a shy flower in a closed moon is beyond my sister's reach. I heard that she spends more time with beautiful people. , I will also become excellent, my younger sister will have to rely on the two older sisters."

"This little mouth is really good at talking. My lady's is not one-ten-thousandth of that of Sister Su's. But just now you said that there are only eight things. How can it be perfect?"

"Sister Liu asked the question knowingly, isn't beauty and family background the same as beauty?" He Lingyao said with a giggle upon hearing this.

"For you to pass the test, come and have tea."

"Thank you, sister." He Lingyao looked at Su Lianyi who had been indifferent but did not speak, and carefully sat on the only vacant stool, only a third of it.

"You haven't answered my question yet." Liu Yueqing glanced at Su Lianyi and said.

"Looking at my sister's memory, she is indeed my cousin who has been in poor health."

"So that's the case. It turns out that you are related to the Duke's mansion, so it's no wonder."

He Lingyao didn't seem to understand the meaning of Liu Yueqing's words, she lowered her eyebrows and nodded pleasingly, "My grandmother is the old lady of the Duke's Mansion."

"So that's the case. Do you get along well with the Duke's wife's daughter?"

"Fortunately, my cousin doesn't go out of the yard very much, maybe it's time for me to visit her."

"The body is so unbearable?" It seems that what the outside world said is true.

"It's been much better recently, it should be due to the good mood after the marriage." He Lingyao said with her eyes downcast.

"So that's the case, you should step back." Liu Yueqing took the teacup to see off the guests.

He Lingyao was taken aback!
Immediately after she got up and left, she thought she had something to say to them and could join in, but she didn't expect that they were just asking her in front of her, and that Su Lianyi, who was always on top, was really annoying.

A person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, what qualifications does he have to be superior.

Don't think that everyone is unaware of the entanglement between them.

Who didn't know that she immediately turned around and ran to the embrace of the eighth prince after King An was disabled.

In the past, she regarded Wang An as her own.

In fact, everyone didn't know that the reason why the emperor planned to marry Su Lianyi to King An was because Su Lianyi's father, Marquis of Huaiyin, only had an empty title without any real power.

But man's calculation is not as good as heaven's calculation. King An is disabled, and in the end, he can carve as many carvings as he can with one arrow.

Just when Luo Jingyao thought that today's spring banquet would be like this, the palace sent someone to inform her.

There are several hidden clues and answers in Taoyuan. After you find them, you can solve them and exchange answers and clues with the princes on the opposite side. Whoever solves the most will win, and the winner will be rewarded by the queen.

When Luo Jingyao heard this, it had nothing to do with her, she must not stand out, the emperor must be watching their house.

"I don't know what the empress will reward."

"Your Majesty, it must be extraordinary." Luo Jingyao got up, and was going to look for it with Yue Jinhua. If she found it, she would hand it over to Yue Jinhua. This was the first friend she made here.

"Then let's hurry up, what are we waiting for?"

As for Luo Jingyao, Yue Jinhua, and it should be said that all the girls in Taoyuan have said that the empress does not know.

When the queen heard Luo Jingyao's words, she looked at the Duke's wife with a smile, but the Duke's wife didn't understand why.

"Your girl is transparent."

"Thank you for your compliment, she is a bit clever."

The queen smiled and said nothing.

I can't see it for the time being, I hope the emperor will not shoot himself in the foot.

"Mrs. Guogong looks more radiant than before. I don't know how you take care of it, so we can learn from it." Concubine Leng said suddenly, and everyone looked over, and they saw that Mrs. Guogong's cheeks were tender. out of water.

Which woman doesn't love beauty, especially women in the harem.

Even the queen is slightly interested.

"It's better for Mrs. Guo to discuss with everyone the maintenance experience."

"Back to the empress, the imperial concubine, the minister's wife doesn't have much experience in taking care of herself, she just used facial fat." The Duke's wife knew that there must be some intention when she thought about her daughter's little fox appearance.

"It's not kind for Mrs. Guogong to be like this. What kind of facial fat can make people so greasy, I will ask you to take a look." There was a sneer-like smile in his face.

"Your Majesty, forgive me! This face cream has not been released yet, and my wife wanted to try the effect before launching it, but I misunderstood you." Mrs. Guo said forgiveness, but there was no panic on her face.

Concubine Leng is very upset!

Hearing Mrs. Guo's words, she immediately rolled her eyes and thought of an idea.

"What effect does it have?"

"Whitening and nourishing the skin, it can make the skin smooth and delicate and reduce dullness." Mrs. Guo smiled slightly, and her beautiful lips formed a just-right smile.

"But the maintenance from the inside out?" Leng Guifei sat up slightly.For some reason, she has spots on her cheeks. Seeing Mrs. Guo's flawless makeup and fresh and fair skin today, she has always wanted to know what good things she used, even if she was asked to put on makeup every day. Daub, she also wants to have.

Now it sounds like it can nourish the skin, isn't that what she needs?
But she wants to please the emperor, so she can't let the Duke's wife do business after publicizing here.

Everyone also turned their ears to listen.

Mrs. Guo nodded.

"Such a heaven-defying good thing, I don't know who is qualified to use it."

The Duke's Madam didn't move her eyebrows, she knew what Concubine Leng meant, if even concubines in the palace are not qualified, then others are even less qualified.

"There are people who love beauty, and all women in the world can." So, don't even think about it if you don't become a tribute.

Concubine Leng choked, and wanted to question the crime, but she knew the big tree behind the Duke's wife, even the emperor would be afraid, let alone her as a concubine.

I wanted to use it in vain, but the Duke and his wife didn't get along.

The queen picked up the teacup and sighed lightly, unable to see clearly the thoughts in her eyes.

"Then Mrs. Duchess should start opening the business sooner, so I can't keep Concubine Leng waiting for a long time."

"My wife, try my best, after all, it is in the experimental stage." Mrs. Guo said respectfully without losing her status.Anyway, no matter who it is, they have to pay for it. It is impossible for people to pay filial piety for nothing.

Every year, the husband follows the crowd to give gifts to the emperor and queen mother, and he has never seen them show mercy when plotting against the Duke's mansion.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Guo's brows became even colder.

On the contrary, such an appearance reassured the queen and gave an explanation to the emperor.

after all!People who have always been informal should be worried if they suddenly restrain their true colors.

As for this face cream, she didn't think the emperor would notice it.

Seeing the queen's expression, the duke's wife breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to chat with the concubine of the harem openly and secretly.

No one knew that the emperor didn't like King An without saying it, and no one wanted to please the emperor to step on the Duke's mansion, but the couple in the Duke's mansion were more than one.

It's really hard to embarrass the Duke's wife without being able to speak out.

It is not easy to please the emperor.

……

"Why does Ninth Brother do this, and you are afraid that the fiancée you got will run away?" Eighth Prince Xiao Zhihan looked at Xiao Mubai who was sitting in a wheelchair and said sarcastically.

"Eighth brother be careful!"

"Brother Erhuang is respectful as always."

"I don't know if the girls on the opposite side know that we can clearly see their every move! If there is any indecent behavior, it will be a joke." The Eighth Prince laughed and said, not shy at all, gloating.

"These are all daughters of famous families, and the upbringing rules will not be bad. The eighth brother is worrying too much." The third prince Xiao Chengrui said.

"Brother Three Emperors can be more blunt. After all, I am not worried. Why worry about it?" The Eighth Prince is favored by the Emperor, and he does things casually and rashly, and this is what the Emperor loves.

The emperor didn't like taciturn people, he always felt that such people had deep thoughts, and An Wang Xiao Mubai was just the taciturn people.The emperor took the prince's homework test, and everyone was expressing themselves, but Xiao Mubai remained silent. This kind of performance made the emperor even more angry, and naturally he didn't like it.

Just being ridiculed by the eighth prince, he didn't seem to hear it, and his simple blue robe couldn't conceal his own elegance.

The outline of a pair of legs relegated to a wheelchair shows his excellence, but it's a pity that he can't stand up.

The handsome appearance was completely destroyed by the proliferating scars, only a pair of eyes as dark as cold pools were left with cold stars, unfathomable.

In his hand was the answer to the riddle that someone insisted on giving him.This person is naturally the lawless Eighth Prince.

Gathering here today, in response to the Queen's order, we cannot bring servants here.

Others don't care, Yuanzhong has everything you need, but he is inconvenient, the wheelchair is heavy, his toxins are all over his body along the tendons, his arms don't have much support, and it's even more difficult to turn and walk on his own , Now he is a useless person.

"Come here, come here, let's see that the ninth brother's marriage is going well, don't miss the marriage, father doesn't have time to give you another marriage." The eighth prince said with disgust.

It can be seen that the requirements of the boys and girls are different.

Luo Jingyao didn't want to come over, but Yue Jinhua wanted to win the queen's reward, so she dragged her around to find puzzles, and after finding a few puzzles, she felt that the winning ticket was within her grasp, so she dragged Luo Jingyao over here.

As a result, Luo Jingyao's hairpin was caught on the low-hanging branches, and when the hairpin fell to the ground, a puzzle fell at the same time.

"This is God's will, you have to follow it, even if you want to be lazy, God can't see it." Yue Jinhua widened her eyes in surprise, and then said to Luo Jingyao, afraid that Luo Jingyao would slip into her hands again .

Luo Jingyao thought about it, it doesn't matter if it's just one, so let's take part in it.

Put the hairpin back into the bun, and walked towards the opposite side with Yue Jinhua.

"Miss Luo, can you wait?"

Footsteps came from behind, calling Luo Jingyao to stop.

Luo Jingyao turned around, she had seen these two people before, they were Su Lianyi, a girl from Huaiyinhou's family, and Liu Yueqing, a girl from Anlebo's house.

She doesn't go out very much when she's dressed as a woman, but she usually goes out dressed as a man, so naturally she will encounter them.

"I don't know but you are calling me?" Luo Jingyao pretended not to know her and asked in confusion.

"Of course, everyone is familiar with her. Only Miss Luo is unfamiliar. I guess she is the eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion." Liu Yueqing smiled softly, and her voice was also gentle.

"Miss has good eyesight, but it's a pity that I'm in poor health and never go out. I don't know who Miss is?" Luo Jingyao didn't mind at all that everyone knew that she was weak.

"I am Yueqing from the Anlebo Mansion, and this is Lianyi from the Marquis of Huaiyin Mansion. We are all two years older than you. You can call us sister."

"Hi two sisters, I wonder if my sister called me?"

"I want to get to know you. We have no bad intentions. I heard that Miss Luo has a delicate body. I didn't expect to see her today. Although my sister is weak, it doesn't affect my sister's appearance."

"My sister is too famous, my sister is not worthy of the word appearance, it's just an ordinary appearance, compared with my sister, my sister is ashamed." Luo Jingyao pretended to be shy and lowered her head slightly, her eyes were clear and clean, no trace of miscellaneous things could be seen.

Liu Yueqing's smile became more and more lovely. Today she was praised by two girls face to face. She didn't notice He Lingyao, but Luo Jingyao was different. Although she looked thin, her appearance was delicate and pale, but it didn't affect her How could she not be happy to hear the affirmation of her appearance from such a clear-eyed, high-status girl.

"My sister is going to the opposite side? How about we go together?"

"nature."

Yue Jinhua is really anxious to chase someone away, silly sister.

Luo Jingyao noticed Yue Jinhua's abnormality, and watched Liu Yueqing and Liu Yueqing calmly, as if they were used to it.

As for Su Lianyi, who hadn't spoken all this time, but looked at her several times, there was a bit of disgust in her eyes, her face was cold and noble, and she couldn't see anything else for the time being.

Luo Jingyao pursed her lips and smiled, and walked ahead hand in hand with Yue Jinhua.

Even if Su Lianyi and Liu Yueqing wanted to go ahead, but their identities did not allow it, the Duke of the State was higher in rank than the Marquis.

Coupled with the fact that Gu Yu and Bai Lu were inseparable, Liu Yueqing fell even further behind.

Luo Jingyao and the other two were not the first ones. When they passed by, there were already many girls who were shyly and timidly solving puzzles. It was rare to see the princes, but today they were able to get so close.

As for the young masters, with the prince as a foil, they shy away from each other, and they don't understand the meaning of today's move!
