Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 254 Gathering
On the second day of the full moon banquet, Lady Qiao reported to Zhao Wangshu, “Girl, the midwife and the two maids have been found, but the midwife was given dumb medicine, and the two maids had their tongues cut out and their tongues broken. Tetsuji.”

After a pause, Mrs. Qiao continued: "They were all covered in injuries. When we found them, they only had half their lives left."

Zhao Wangshu took a breath of air, never expecting Fan Jinyao to be so cruel, "Mrs. Buckwheat, you have worked hard these days. Take them to a safe place to settle down first, ask the doctor to treat their injuries, and wait until they are well." Let’s talk about it after the injury.”

"Yes, girl." Lady Qiao took the order and left.

Originally, Zhao Wangshu only wanted a small revenge on Fan Jinyao, but now Fan Jinyao must pay the price for what she did.

In order to calm down his angry mood, Zhao Wangshumo wrote the meditation mantra several times.

Two days later, Zhao Wangshu received an invitation from Princess Liao, inviting her to attend the Qiufengya Banquet in five days.

Zhao Wangshu was a little surprised. With the current status of the Zhao family, the only person in the family who was qualified to receive Princess Liao's invitation was her sister-in-law Song Yuanqu.

She has no reputation as a talented woman, so why did Princess Liao invite her?

Confused, Zhao Wangshu knew that she could not refuse Princess Liao's invitation, so she took the invitation and went to her sister-in-law.

Song Yuanqu was teasing his daughter who had just woken up. When he saw Zhao Wangshu coming in, he held up Xiao Youyou's little fat hand and waved, "Hey, your aunt is here. Give her a smile."

Zhao Wangshu walked over with a smile and touched his little niece's tender face, "We are so good."

Song Yuanqu smiled and handed his daughter to the wet nurse and took the invitation from Zhao Wangshu's hand, "Whose invitation is this?"

Zhao Wangshu said: "It's from Princess Liao. She invites me to attend the Qiu Fengya Banquet in five days."

Song Yuanqu frowned slightly, "Strange, why did Princess Liao leave a message for you?"

Not to mention the Zhao family, even Princess Rui Chengcheng's Mansion has little contact with Prince Liao's Mansion.

Zhao Wangshu shook his head, "I don't know either. I don't have a reputation as a talented woman. If Princess Liao invites me to go, I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed."

"Sister-in-law is talking nonsense again. Although you are not known as a talented woman, your talent is as good as anyone's." Song Yuanqu glared at her, took the invitation and looked at it carefully, "Since Princess Liao posted the invitation, you should go there. "It's just a party, just go."

Zhao Wangshu smiled and said, "Okay, I will go to the banquet as my sister-in-law tells me."

The elegant gathering is nothing more than reciting poems, painting, and comparing calligraphy.

She was confident that these were not inferior to others. Since Princess Liao invited her, she would just go there.

Five days later, the Qiufengya banquet was held as scheduled.

Zhao Wangshu wore a pink-blue long skirt with a chrysanthemum pattern embroidered on the hem. She wore a butterfly bun on her temples, a gold hairpin inlaid with butterflies and flowers, and three pairs of jade-leaf gold cicada hairpins. Swaying gently in her hair, she looked gentle and delicate.

Many celebrities and ladies from the capital have gathered in the hall. They are wearing various colorful clothes, holding poems in their hands, whispering in a low voice, or chanting loudly.

Zhao Wangshu smiled and nodded to them. Under the guidance of the maid, he sat down in a corner.

After a while, Yao Shanzhi and Qin Youzi came. As soon as they arrived, they went straight to Zhao Wangshu. Zhao Wangshu pretended to be angry and pouted: "You made an appointment to come together, but you didn't even call me. I'm going to be angry."

Yao Shanzhi hugged her arm and said, "We didn't have an appointment. We happened to meet at the door. Don't be angry. Don't be angry. I'll treat you to something delicious."

"If you only invite Wangshu to eat, but if you don't invite me to eat, then I will be angry too." Qin Youzi hummed.

"Please, please, don't be angry, I've always been exposed to rain and dew equally." Yao Shanzhi held one in arms and coaxed the two of them with a smile.

"That's pretty much it." Zhao Wangshu and Qin Youzi looked at each other and smiled.

After a while of joking, the Han sisters arrived. Yao Shanzhi raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm going to invite you to a good show. Logically speaking, it's your turn to invite me." Qin Youzi was surprised, "You're the one to invite Liao to this elegant gathering. Did the princess do it?”

"No wonder I received the invitation." Zhao Wangshu suddenly realized.

"Although I want to invite you, I only have Princess Liao's consent. Princess Liao seems to like you quite a bit." Yao Shanzhi said.

Zhao Wangshu frowned, "I have never met Princess Liao."

"Perhaps they have been friends for a long time." Qin Youzi casually guessed the truth.

"Haha, Youzi is really smart." Yao Shanzhi glanced at Qin Youzi appreciatively, "Wangshu, let me tell you, before I even had time to say that I wanted to invite you to this gathering, Princess Liao asked you to participate. "

"Wow, it turns out that Princess Liao thinks so highly of me. It's such an honor." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

"Wang Shu, with your talent, anyone will appreciate it." Qin Youzi said seriously.

"Thank you for thinking so highly of me." Zhao Wangshu smiled.

At this time, the maid came in and invited all the girls to go to the back garden. The Qiu Feng Ya Banquet was held in the back garden of the Liao Palace.

The blooming chrysanthemums decorate the back garden with a picturesque and unique elegance.

Not long after they arrived in the back garden, three ladies in palace attire, surrounded by maids, arrived in the back garden.

The person wearing the daylily-colored short coat with pearls, Luan and Phoenix patterns is the hostess of the Liao Palace, Princess Liao, and the other two are the Princess of Xianli County and the Princess of Zuozheng County.

"Greetings to the three princesses." All the girls saluted in unison.

"Ladies, there is no need to be polite." Princess Liao nodded slightly, her eyes swept over everyone and landed on Zhao Wangshu, "This must be Miss Zhao?"

Zhao Wangshu saluted again, "I have met Princess Liao."

Princess Liao looked at her carefully and said with a smile: "Miss Zhao is indeed as I thought, with both beauty and talent."

Zhao Wangshu said modestly: "The princess has given you the award, but Wangshu is too embarrassed to deserve it."

Princess Liao took her hand and said kindly: "Miss Zhao, there is no need to be modest. I invite you all here today just to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the back garden and talk about poetry and songs. I think it will be very pleasant."

Everyone hurriedly said: "It is our honor to enjoy the beautiful scenery with the princess."

The three princesses sat down on the armchairs. Princess Liao smiled and said: "In the mid-autumn season, the autumn breeze gathers elegantly and the chrysanthemums are in full bloom. If the title of today's article is to use autumn chrysanthemums, it would be out of convention. Therefore, I discussed with the two princesses Now, it’s about birds.”

The princess of Zuocheng County complimented: "In August, migratory birds come, black birds return, and flocks of birds take care of themselves. The theme of birds is the most suitable for the occasion."

The princess of Xianli County added: "Any bird can be used. If you are writing poetry, there is no limit on the rhyme. If you are writing lyrics, there is no limit on the order. If you are making paintings, autumn birds are the best. Girls, please show your talents."

Yao Shanzhi pulled down the sleeves of Zhao Wangshu and Qin Youzi, winked, and asked them to look at Han Zhiqing.

When the two of them took a look, they saw that Han Zhiqing's face was a bit ugly.

It seems that the poem Han Zhiqing prepared was based on autumn and chrysanthemum, but Princess Liao gave her another title, which caught her off guard.

"The fake talented girl is about to reveal her secrets." Yao Shanzhi sneered in a low voice.

The old lady ran out while we were not paying attention. Knocking on people's doors everywhere, we went to apologize. Sorry for the late update.
