Daughter of Hou's Mansion

297 Take the initiative

"Sister Wu, do you know who is entertaining us today?" Fang Siyu held Wu Ruoshui's arm and spoke in a low voice. She heard that Princess Qin's concubine was gone, so she originally thought that the Marshal's Mansion Even the banquet guests would not invite female guests, who knew that my own mother had also received the invitation.

Wu Ruoshui had a slight smile on his face, but he knew in his heart that the Marshal's Mansion was going to use this banquet to rectify Wei Qingluan's name. Just like Fang Siyu, many people in Yuancheng had inquired about Prince Qin's son. But the news she got was that the princess of the Qin Dynasty had died, and this time Wei Qingluan was going to appear in front of everyone as the princess of the Qin Dynasty. Was she so sure that the people in Yuancheng would not have any doubts?

"I heard that when His Royal Highness arrived in Yuancheng, there was a woman by his side, could it be that woman?" Su Wan'er agreed with a gossip.

Wu Ruoshui said with a light smile, "No matter who it is, we'll see you soon."

"Sister Wu is also really good-natured. Although the son of King Qin is a royal family member, wouldn't it be disrespectful for us to let a woman come out to entertain us casually?" Fang Siyu pouted displeasedly. All of them are wives and ladies from various families, if the person who entertains them is not of sufficient status, even as a guest, they will feel that they are not taken seriously.

Wu Ruoshui listened to Fang Siyu and Su Wan'er talking to each other, maintaining a peaceful smile the whole time, but her eyes were appraising the delicacy of the journey.The overall layout of the Marshal's Mansion is very rough. Although the mansion is large, it looks bleak without a woman taking care of it, but now the whole Marshal's Mansion has a fresh feeling everywhere. Those flowers and plants may be very expensive, but Every place is just right to embellish the scenery of that place, playing a finishing touch.

Wu Ruoshui knew it was a woman's handwriting when he saw these. It seems that Wei Qingluan is also a clever person.

A few people walked for a while, and were led to a small garden. Many people had already arrived. Wu Ruoshui looked around the garden, making people feel that they were so stupid, not far away. At the place, Wei Qingluan was dressed in light pink clothes, walking towards them with a smile.

"Mrs. Wu, Miss Wu, we meet again." Qingluan had a proper smile on her face, and she pointed out what they had seen before.

The faces of the Su family and the Fang family were slightly surprised, but they heard Qingluan call out their identities one by one, which shows that they did not make little preparations.

As soon as Mrs. Wu saw Qingluan, her face turned a little ugly, and then Wu Ruoshui said with a smile: "The concubine is too polite, please trouble the concubine to come out in person." On the day of the tide, Shangguanjue personally admitted that Wei Qingluan was His concubine, if he denies it at this time, it will give people a feeling of being stingy.

As soon as Wu Ruoshui's words fell, the faces of the Su and Wu families were full of surprise. This... This is different from the news they got from Shangjing. Maybe the news they inquired about was wrong.Shangjing is far away from the Northwest. Although everyone has spent a little time inquiring about the new commander of the Northwest Army, they focus on different directions. However, the Wu family is not the only one who is interested in the position of King Qin's concubine. It is rare. The prince of the royal family came to Yuancheng, and he was originally married and newly mourned. Everyone has their own little ninety-nine in their hearts. Layers of waves.

Qingluan didn't seem to notice everyone's expression of seeing a ghost, pointed to the center of the garden and said: "There are tea and snacks, please."

The initiator of today's banquet is of course Shangguan Jue. The Wu family misunderstood Qingluan as a concubine on a flood day. It was a scar on his heart. He wished that the woman he was protecting in his hands would be mistaken for that shameful concubine, so the majestic Prince Qin personally posted the post, and everyone just didn't give face.

Although there were a lot of people invited, for this kind of banquet, it was no problem for Qingluan to ask for those. She took Shangguanjue's kindness into her heart.

Su Wan'er and Fang Siyu were by Wu Ruoshui's side, one on the left and the other on the right. The expressions of the two of them were a bit strange. They could be said to be the confidantes of the Wu family. I know that Wu Ruoshui is a legendary figure in Yuancheng, and it is enough to be matched with the son of King Qin. Originally, the two families were also optimistic about this matter. It is a win-win situation if the people on the other side are closely linked.

This world concubine is obviously not what they expected.

"Wu... Sister, have you seen this Qin Wang... Shi Zifei?" Fang Siyu asked stammeringly.

Wu Ruoshui nodded: "I saw it once during the tide day."

"Didn't it mean that Prince Qin's concubine died of illness? Why did another concubine suddenly appear?" Su Wan'er asked a little impatiently.

"I don't know about this question." Wu Ruoshui shook his head, already vaguely understanding in his heart, as long as people in this Yuancheng want to make friends with Shangguan, they will definitely not ask why. After all, Shangguanjue personally posted this post The purpose of this banquet is to tell everyone that this is his wife, and that she is valued by him, so he can't tolerate other people bullying her. None of the people who came to this garden today are stupid. She will only keep this question firmly in her heart, and she will be absolutely respectful to Wei Qingluan on the surface, just because her status as the eldest concubine is recognized by Shangguan.

Wu Ruoshui couldn't help tightening the handkerchief when she thought about it, she glanced at the crowd, even in a group of people, she found the pink figure at a glance, maybe her appearance is not the best, but Her calm and calm demeanor and innate nobility make her stand out even in the crowd.

Wu Ruoshui bit her lips involuntarily, she always had a sense of superiority deep in her heart, because she was a time-traveling girl, she had seen things that these people had never seen before, and she had a sense of detachment where everyone was drunk and I was alone.Her goal is very clear, if she wants to marry, she must marry the best man in the world. She has found this man, but there is the most obtrusive stumbling block in front of her.

For this kind of large banquet, Qingluan actually prefers a few acquaintances to gather together to drink tea, enjoy the scenery and chat.But she also knew that sometimes this kind of entertainment was unavoidable, and if Shangguan wanted to be like a fish in water outside, she also had to deal well with these wives in Yuancheng.

Entertaining is a must-learn lesson for Qingluan. Before holding the banquet, she has already sorted out the relationship between the civil servants and generals in Yuancheng. Compared with the intricacies of Shangjing, the relationship in Yuancheng is relatively simple. , but it was precisely because of some inquiries that she knew how famous Wu Ruoshui was in Yuancheng.

Wu Ruoshui is 16 years old this year. According to common sense, girls should marry at this age. There are many people who go to Wu's family to ask for marriage, but they seem to be rejected by Wu's family. Thinking of the last time in Wangjiang Tower, With the abrupt behavior of Mrs. Wu and Wu Ruoshui, Qingluan also somewhat understood their thoughts. After arriving in Yuancheng, the emotional Shangguan became a piece of fresh meat. Even the first beauty and the first talented woman in Yuancheng treated him Favor has been added.

Qingluan glanced at Wu Ruoshui who was surrounded by all the girls. Even though she was surrounded by so many people, she still had a slight smile on her face, but that smile didn't seem very sincere, and there was a smile between her brows. There was a touch of pride, as if she didn't care about everything in the world.

Qingluan couldn't help chuckling, Wu Ruoshui did have the capital to be proud, but she probably didn't know that men don't like women who are too proud and too difficult to control.

After throwing away all kinds of thoughts in her heart, Qingluan joined the chatting of everyone. Presumably everyone is also very curious about her as the world concubine, and she should clear up the confusion for everyone.

After Wu Ruoshui dealt with the ladies who had various thoughts about her, she walked to a secluded place, and the smile on her face disappeared.

There was a maid holding a set of clothes in front of her. Seeing that the maid looked familiar, Wu Ruoshui remembered that she had met once in Wangjiang Tower before, and the one who could go out with the master must be a confidant maid. The clothes he was holding were obviously men's, Wu Ruoshui's heart moved, and he followed.

Passing through a door with hanging flowers, there is an inverted seat on the south side. Outside the inverted seat stands a young boy with immature appearance. I saw the servant girl handing the clothes to the servant girl. The servant girl smiled and said a few words to the maidservant. Then he took the clothes and entered the inverted seat.The servant girl didn't wait too long, and after the boy entered, she turned and left.

When the maid disappeared, Wu Ruoshui turned around from the bushes, her eyes were heavy, if she guessed correctly, the one sitting down should be Prince Qin's son Shangguan Jue.Wu Ruoshui's footsteps faltered. It's not that I haven't chased men in my previous life. As the saying goes, women chased men, I don't know if I would frighten Shangguan Jue if I took the initiative to attack.

Wu Ruoshui couldn't help but smile, no matter whether she would be intimidated or not, these ancient women were always coy, even if they mentioned a marriage, they would blush for a long time, and their maverick just left an impression on Shangguanjue.

When Wu Ruoshui was still masturbating, the door of the inverted seat opened suddenly, and it was Shangguan Jue who came out, and he was dressed in the purple robe that the maid sent over just now. People like Shangguanjue can be suppressed by dragons and phoenixes. Not only does he not look coquettish, but it makes people feel extravagant.

Wu Ruoshui breathed a sigh of relief before stepping forward, with a smile that she thought was most suitable, confident and calm.
