The emperor's uncle is the only favorite: the mysterious doctor's crazy concubine is going
Chapter 83 The rules have changed
Chapter 83 The rules have changed
Fortunately, at this time, someone outside reported the arrival of His Highness King Yu, which eased the deadlock.
However, everyone has their thoughts in mind, and they are looking more closely at the grand master's mansion in the past.
Especially Yu Qinglian, everyone knows that she is tolerant and generous to the concubines in the house, and she has gained a reputation as a virtuous person.
Shen Zhuoxi's words hit a point that no one paid attention to. Think about it carefully, who would believe that there is nothing fishy!
Yu Qinglian hated Shen Zhuoxi so much that she had to pretend to be generous and laugh it off!
Jing Muling has a weird temper since she became blind and never appears on any grand occasions.
Today was a coincidence. While everyone was surprised, they only thought he was doing it to make the prince look good, who was hosting the Mid-year banquet for the first time.
Everyone saluted in unison. Jing Muling looked calm and said not to be formal, then walked to the front table and sat down.
As soon as he arrived, everyone present did not dare to talk nonsense. If they wanted to say anything, they whispered in a low voice for fear of disturbing him.
While Shen Zhuoxi was enjoying the tranquility, she walked up to Wei Zhiting, who had just spoken for her, and said, "Thank you so much, Miss Wei, for speaking up."
"You're welcome, Miss Shen Er." Wei Zhiting smiled and said, "It's just that I can't stand it. It's a simple effort."
Wei Zhiting could have watched the show like everyone else. She chose to speak out, which indeed helped Shen Zhuoxi.
As he got closer, Shen Zhuoxi took a closer look.
Wei Zhiting's birth was not just like a proud lotus in June, with hibiscus sprouting from clear water, she was beautiful and graceful. As the Queen Mother said, with a strong bookish atmosphere, she was a talented woman at first glance.
The only fly in the ointment is that there are some problems in the basement, and if they are not handled well, they may affect your whole life.
Shen Zhuoxi didn't know if her helping act was a sign of goodwill, or if it was a real effort, or he was reminding her in her ear: "Thank you Miss Wei for your help. If I say more, Miss Wei must take it to heart."
"Your basement is dark and the overhang is low. Be careful of the people around you. Pay special attention to the maids and servants you have helped recently."
Wei Zhiting's maid was just three or four steps behind. Shen Zhuoxi's voice was so low that no one around him heard it. Wei Zhiting subconsciously turned around and glanced at the maid.
She did help a maid recently, and it was Hong Rui, the maid who was following her.
However, Hongrui has been serving her since she was ten years old, and she has been serving her for seven or eight years. She has always been kind to her. Could Hongrui be detrimental to her?
Still asking questions, Shen Zhuoxi stood up straight, as if nothing had happened, and his voice was still very low: "Miss Wei, you just have to be aware of this matter. If you have anything to do, go to the Renxintang on Changjie tomorrow to see me. It's the same as before." Antang.”
"Miss Shen Er also has medical skills?" Wei Zhiting asked curiously.
"I understand. Qihuang is a family of medical experts. What I just said is not false." Shen Zhuoxi smiled and sat back to his previous place after the ceremony.
Wei Zhiting had something on her mind. Hong Rui noticed something and stepped forward: "Miss, are you feeling unwell? What did Miss Shen Er tell you?"
"The second young lady knows medical skills and saw that I was very angry when I came in." Wei Zhiting made an excuse and said, "It's nothing serious."
As soon as Shen Zhuoxi sat down, Miss Fen Yishang next to her said warmly: "Second Miss, I didn't expect you to be so stubborn. I admire you. I am Wang Yurou from Zhongshu Ling's house."
"Miss Wang." Shen Zhuoxi said with a just right smile: "Hello, I am Shen Zhuoxi."
Wang Yurou's name and personality were so different that she didn't notice Shen Zhuoxi's sense of distance. He pestered her and continued to ask: "Is it true that His Highness King Yu asked someone to cure your illness?"
"Yes." Shen Zhuoxi looked at Jing Muling instinctively.
Jing Muling still had the same posture as when she was seated, standing out among the crowd, with her stunning appearance that stood out from the crowd, not to mention her innate noble temperament that was hard to conceal.
At this glance, Shen Zhuoxi only felt that Jing Muling was not the unreachable His Royal Highness King Yu that people said. It seemed that he was a little more lonely.
Jing Muling seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly raised her head and faced her direction.
Even though he knew Jing Muling couldn't see him, Shen Zhuoxi still panicked for a moment and quickly averted his eyes.
Wang Yurou didn't notice anything unusual about her, and continued in a hoarse voice: "Is it true that after bad eyesight, you have a weird personality and be difficult to get close to?"
"His Royal Highness King Yu is very good." Shen Zhuoxi said without leaving any trace: "His personality is not as bad as rumored, but he talks less and doesn't like to laugh much."
Wang Yurou continued to ask like a talker: "Then, the rumor that he doesn't like women is true or false?"
Shen Zhuoxi: "..."
She didn't answer. Wang Yurou had a gossipy look on her face. She came closer, looked at Hui Zhi behind her a few times, and asked in a low voice: "I heard that His Highness King Yu gave you a maid as a gift."
"I treat you so well. Isn't it because I have some thoughts about you?"
Shen Zhuoxi: "???!!!"
If you know that Wang Yurou talks a lot and gossips, she shouldn't talk to him!
Just like this, Shen Zhuoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief when the prince finally showed up.
The prince's name is Jingye, he is eighteen or nineteen years old, he has a clear face and a bit of childishness.
It was my first time to host such a big occasion. As usual, I talked about the opening of the scene before saying: "This year's mid-year banquet is the same as in previous years. In addition to admiring flowers and scenery and writing poems, riding and shooting is also indispensable."
"The forest behind Zhuangzi surrounds the hunting ground. It is not only a competition for horseback shooting, but also tests your skills. This year, women's horseback shooting is specially added. The emperor said that our ancestors were born on horseback, and women are no worse than men."
"In order to maintain energy, we must first be civilized and then martial. Everyone must work hard. There will be a singing and dancing dinner in the evening. This year's rewards are bigger than in previous years."
When Jingye spoke, he didn't even look in Shen Xinyu's direction.
Shen Xinyu was both worried and suspicious - it had been agreed before that after the mid-year banquet started, the good deeds between the two of them would be announced to add to the happiness.
Yu Qinglian also felt that something was wrong. She glanced back and forth between the prince and Shen Xinyu for a few times. Finally, she met Shen Xinyu and shook her head silently, signaling her not to act rashly.
Shen Xinyu breathed a long sigh of relief and comforted herself: Maybe His Highness the Crown Prince wants to wait for her to display her talent before announcing it?
After Jingye finished speaking, he couldn't help but glanced at Shen Xinyu.
But it only took one glance and he averted his eyes.
Shen Xinyu met that look and became more and more uneasy, as if something slipped through her fingers.
She managed to calm down, waiting for the next step to overwhelm the crowd with her elegance.
There are many exotic flowers and plants growing on Prince Zhuangzi. Even if the heat is unbearable, each flower blooms more beautifully than the last.
After some viewing, the first round was to chant flowers.
Several young eunuchs brought different varieties of orchids for everyone to admire and improvise at the same time. They could use metaphors from ancestors' poems and compose their own poems. The lucky number was a transparent pink jade hairpin.
The rule is that the little eunuch plays the drum while blindfolded, and the people below pollinate the hosta. When the drum stops, whoever has the hairpin in his hand will chant the orchid, which is full of fun.
After one round, the one who writes the best poem by himself wins, and the one who chants other people's poems is the one who runs with him.
Jing Muling's expression changed slightly when she heard the little eunuch introduced the rules.
In previous years, people volunteered to write poems and lyrics, which not only made those who knew how to do it shine, but also prevented those who didn't know how to do it from making a fool of themselves.
The rules this time will definitely affect Shen Zhuoxi.
As far as he knew, Shen Zhuoxi's calligraphy was taught by Aunt Ju who served her. Aunt Ju didn't know many characters, and it was impossible to teach Shen Zhuoxi poetry!
what to do? It was hard to defend herself in front of so many people. Should she watch her being teased?
