Splendid Pastoral Wife

Chapter 248 A gathering of fragrances makes Dai's side concubine dizzy (2)
Tian Jing and Tian Liufeng welcomed the male guests into the Summer Palace of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the eldest lady He Tian Liuyue arranged all the female guests in the famous garden of the Prime Minister's Mansion, where the "Grand Concubine Pavilion" is located. , the banquet is on the open space on both sides of the pavilion.

Tian Liuyue wore a hibiscus-colored golden silk soft smoked peony long dress today, covered with white gauze, with shoulders cut into waists and plain skin, skin like creamy fat, lively color and fragrance, hair pulled up high into a flying swallow bun, full of beauty. Emerald jewels and jadeite hairpins, tassels and wreaths, her gestures are elegant and dignified, looking forward to shine, she gracefully leads the ladies of various houses to visit the garden, enjoy the exotic flowers and plants in the garden, and play softly with the ladies of the big family.

It is said that the eldest son of the prime minister's mansion has sharpened his sword for ten years, and he has just returned today after studying abroad for ten years. He is elegant in white, handsome as jade, and has both civil and military skills. , so the main purpose of the guests coming here is to see the elegant demeanor of the Prime Minister.

And the female guests came not only for Tian Liufeng, but also for Tian Liusu, the head of Liupin County, who has been famous all over the world recently. The eldest son of Prince Chang'an was the concubine, and was taken away and thrown into Tianshui Village. Not only did she live a prosperous life there, but she also became the first female village head of Tianqi.

The village head had nothing to show off. The key point is that the village head is said to be a village head given by the gods. She can understand the heavenly scriptures, and cultivated grain seeds according to the heavenly scriptures handed down from the Qin family village. Food is the basis for the stability of the country. , so even the emperor praised her greatly, and decreed to make her the county lord.

It's just that there is another thing behind these beautiful things, which is the matter of her reconciliation with the prince of Chang'an. This matter has been publicly announced by the emperor in the imperial decree. What a disgraceful thing, but it was quietly rumored that she was divorced because the Prince Chang'an was sorry for her.

Gossip is a never-ending topic for women of any era. Recently, Tian Liusu was taken back to the mansion by Tian Jing and Tang Wanrong, so they all came to watch her out of curiosity, although three years ago She once became the laughing stock of the people in the capital, but this time when she returned to Beijing, people's views on her are somewhat different from before.

Of course, women are all envious and jealous of her. There is a difference between a concubine and a concubine. The rules handed down by her ancestors do not allow her to have so much aura as a concubine. The matter of the son's reconciliation has become a big stain on her. They still laughed at and looked down on Tian Liusu's style behind her back.

When Tian Liusu and Tian Mingyue arrived in the garden, most of the wives and ladies had already arrived, and they were all visiting the garden with people they knew each other. For a while, there were crowds of beauties, like a hundred flowers blooming, competing for splendor.

Tian Mingyue is the only child of Erfang, which seems to be an anomaly in ancient times, because she is the only one, so Erfang Tianli and the second wife regard her as a treasure. In these years, every time a nobleman invites a lady from the Xiangfu to attend a banquet, Tian Mingyue I have to go, so I also know a lot of ladies in the nobles of the capital.

As soon as she walked into the garden with Tian Liusu, she attracted the attention of other people intermittently. Tian Mingyue was sweet and lovely, dressed in gorgeous and luxurious clothes, and her hair was rarely seen in the market.

Looking at Tian Liusu again, although the emerald green skirt is not the best material, but it is bright in color and fashionable in style, a style that they have never seen before. It is just right with the emerald haircut, and it sets off her bright eyes. The teeth are so dazzling that people dare not look directly at them.

Tian Liusu's previous life in the Prime Minister's Mansion was only slightly better than that of a maid, and she had never shown her face in front of these noble ladies, nor had she participated in any banquets, so when she appeared in the sight of everyone, most people didn't know her. Know her, just ask each other who is this woman.

"Sister Mingyue, you are finally here." As soon as they entered the pavilion, they heard a charming voice, and the two looked up at the woman.

"Sister Yuhong, are you here too?" Tian Mingyue saw that it was Jing Yuhong, a lady from Prince Jing's mansion, and happily walked over to greet her.

"Sister, who is this sister?" The woman looked at Tian Liusu with envy in her eyes, and asked Tian Mingyue.

"Sister Yuhong, this is my second sister Liusu." Tian Mingyue's voice was very loud. After hearing this, everyone turned their heads and looked at Tian Liusu.

Tian Liusu smiled slightly, and stood there with a leisurely demeanor, letting everyone's eyes scrape at her.

Tian Mingyue laughed, and introduced several ladies and ladies in the pavilion to Tian Liusu one by one. Tian Liusu didn't want to have any contact with these people, nor did he think about remembering their names, so he just went out with everyone as a matter of routine. After a salute, he wanted to turn around and leave here, looking for a quiet place to rest.

"Is this Miss Liusu who was divorced by Yun Shizi?" At this moment, a clear voice sounded.

Tian Liusu smiled wryly and turned around. She knew that these people would definitely bring up this matter today, and as expected, she couldn't even avoid it.

"Princess Jing, I am Tian Liusu." She turned around to look at the woman who spoke, she was dressed in a dignified and solemn air, dark green palace attire, trimmed with gold silk, and she was staring at her with piercing eyes.

"Since she is from Heli and a country woman with a low status, how can the prime minister's mansion tolerate such a corrupt woman? Besides, so many nobles gathered in the mansion today, she is still dressed up and showing off, is there any sense of courtesy and integrity? ?”

Concubine Jing was the highest among the guests. As soon as she opened her mouth, the others lowered their heads and covered their mouths and sniggered, their eyes revealing that they were enjoying the show.

"Auntie, why did you come here? Mother has been waiting for you for a long time." At this time, the eldest lady He Tian Liuyue, who had welcomed the last group of guests, came with a few girls. She saw that Tian Liusu was also here, Busy dared to step forward and walked over.

"Sister, it turns out that you are here. Tell me to give me a meal so I can find you."

Tang Wanrong then also stepped forward and saluted Tang Wanqing, Concubine Jing. The two were both the eldest daughter and the second daughter of the Duke of Tang's mansion. Back then, one married Prince Jing and the other married Xiang Tian. Supporting each other and taking care of each other has formed a huge force in the court.

"Sister, it's not my sister who is talking about you. Today is such an important festival as Liu Feng's return to the mansion. Almost all the ministers of the court came to congratulate him. How can you let these people who are not on the stage come out to dance? The people who come here are the most noble in the capital. The person who collided with someone who was contaminated with filth, maybe you can afford to bear it?"

Tang Wanqing came up and said a lot not to complain about Tang Wanrong, but in fact, every word was directed at Tian Liusu.

"Sister, my sister is living a miserable life in the prime minister's mansion. She works hard every day to take care of the affairs of the inner courtyard, and is coveted by others for the power to run the family. Now that the second young lady has returned to the mansion, she has a royal seal and is deeply favored by the emperor." , not only pushed the sisters down, even I was careful when I was in front of her, lest I treat her poorly and cause the Prime Minister to be reprimanded by the emperor."
