Ghosts come to the door: entangle the little lady

Chapter 200 Chrysanthemum Drunk

After a while, the servants in the palace moved the pots of chrysanthemums placed on the outside to the center of the banquet, and moved a flower stand several stories high, and placed the pots of precious chrysanthemums in an orderly manner. Go up, let people look around, and they will naturally be attracted by those chrysanthemums.

Gu Wanqing agrees with Gu Yuyu's proposal very much. Since it is a chrysanthemum appreciation feast, it is natural to eat, drink, chat and enjoy the flowers. The chrysanthemums are just outside, so she shouldn't turn her head to look at them frequently, for fear of losing her manners, so it is very good .

After the servants moved the chrysanthemums, Gu Wanqing looked up, and saw that the central flower platform was five stories high, and each floor was filled with various kinds of chrysanthemums, each with its own characteristics, some beautiful and elegant, some bright Eye-catching, some with their heads held high... the chrysanthemums are in full bloom, colorful and in various poses.

Take a closer look at each pot of chrysanthemums, some are red like fire, some are white like snow, and some are pink like clouds. You can even see a pot of black chrysanthemums standing tall and tall on the top of the flower bed. Flowers, pistils are plucked in the breeze, and the petals are shining beautifully in the sunshine. Even its leaves are dark purple, which is very unique.

Gu Wanqing only took one look, and was attracted by the black chrysanthemums. I have seen too many red, pink, pink, yellow and yellow flowers in the world, but I have never seen black flowers. It turns out that black flowers are also so beautiful. ,eye-catching.

Looking at these rare and precious chrysanthemums, the other daughters all sighed. They are so beautiful, and they can smell the faint fragrance of the flowers at such a close distance, which is really refreshing.

"Sister Gu, you can't see these chrysanthemums outside. They are all very valuable varieties. Did you see that pot of black chrysanthemums on the top of the flower bed is the best of the best? Xiangwang Mansion can produce such a pot this year. The ultimate chrysanthemum is really an eye-opener~ It's the first time I've seen it, and I've seen it in books before..." Mo Chen, who was at the side, said in a rambling manner, his eyes full of obsession.

Gu Wanqing glanced at Mo Chen'an, and after listening to what she said, she thought to herself: No wonder she has never seen it before, and she has never heard of it. No matter what kind of flower it is, she has never seen ink-colored flowers, as if they were dyed with ink. Reveals a noble, mysterious color.

The old lady heard the compliments from the daughters present, and happily patted Gu Yuyu's hand, and said, "It's because you are a thoughtful child, and it's a special flavor to enjoy flowers like this..."

"What mother said is that this child, Yu Yu, has been sensible and careful since he was a child, and he is very lovable~" The side princess smiled happily, as if an old lady was praising her, and picked up the pastry in front of her, saying: "Mother Try the pastry, but it is made of chrysanthemum petals planted this year, it is fragrant and delicious, sweet but not greasy, I think my mother will like it."

"I like to eat the chrysanthemum cake that my daughter-in-law makes every year. Come on, let the children eat more. The chrysanthemum cake in the palace can't be bought anywhere~" The old lady greeted happily Dao, looks like a child.

Gu Wanqing was originally a foodie. Hearing the greeting from the old lady, and not getting chrysanthemum wine to drink before, she felt a little regretful. It just so happened that there were cakes made of chrysanthemums at this time. It wouldn't be rude to eat more cakes~
So he happily picked up the pastry and stuffed it into his mouth, and he was excited to say hello, his eyes narrowed into slits.

It's really delicious, fragrant and glutinous, and the taste is fresh and elegant.

"Chen'an, try it quickly, it's very delicious~" Gu Wanqing managed to swallow half a mouthful, and muttered.

Mo Chen'an originally saw that Gu Wanqing didn't drink alcohol or eat cakes, and thought she was such a reserved person. She felt that it was very different from what the second brother described, but at this time, she completely believed that Gu Wanqing was completely It's just pretending, now it's really exposed, but she likes it.

She picked up a piece of pastry, took a bite, and said, "Well, it's even more delicious and sweeter than last year's. This princess's craftsmanship is really getting better and better..."

"Eh? Did the concubine make this herself?" Gu Wanqing picked up another piece of pastry and asked curiously.

"Well, that's right. Every year at the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet, the princess will make chrysanthemum cakes to entertain all the ladies and gentlemen in Xiangxi City, but this year is a little different. Only the ladies from Xiangxi City are invited..." Mo Chenan leaned closer to Gu Wanqing's In the ear, whispered: "Listen to my second brother, this is the princess who is choosing a concubine for the second son in disguise~"

After finishing speaking, she winked at Gu Wanqing, looking very cute.

After Gu Wanqing heard this, she stopped talking and silently took a sip of the tea in front of her, with a slightly embarrassed expression on her face. If today is really a disguised concubine selection banquet, why invite her?
She raised her eyes and looked at the front. Gu Ziyu was chatting and laughing with the old lady, and even the side princess was also smiling very happily. Obviously, the two generations of daughters-in-law and mother-in-law get along happily, and outsiders can't get in at all. It stands to reason that the side princess That's why I'm interested in Gu Ziyu, why bother to invite so many famous daughters over?
I really don't understand.

Gu Wanqing shook her head, she didn't think about it if she couldn't figure it out, anyway, it was none of her business anyway, so she picked up a few pieces of chrysanthemum cake and stuffed it into her mouth, eating happily.

Mo Chen'an is also a foodie, and she can chat with Gu Wanqing very well, or in other words, she can chat with anyone wherever she goes.

"Concubine, Concubine, since today is the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet, I am here to accompany the Concubine. How about playing a song for the Concubine?" The young lady of the Wang family suddenly stood up, bowed profusely, and the two With sparkling eyes and a voice as sweet as an oriole, she said briskly.

There was no reason for the old lady to disagree, she said cheerfully: "Okay~"

As soon as the words fell, someone brought up the guzheng and placed it in the middle of the banquet, just behind the flower table, forming a beautiful background.

Miss Wang's family sat down gracefully, her smiling eyes fluctuated, and she hung on a shallow smile. She stretched out her slender hand, stroked the piano, adjusted the tuning briefly, and began to play.

Gu Wanqing was eating happily. When she heard Miss Wang's playing, she couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, but she also found it very pleasant. Unknowingly, she was a little intoxicated...

It is often said that some people with superb piano skills can play music that can attract and intoxicate people to the point of being completely immersed in it. Gu Wanqing might not believe it before, but now, when she thinks back to those words, she feels that it is not unreasonable.

She was really intoxicated, and a little hot...

And she was really a little drunk, dizzy, looking at the figures in front of her, there were double images, she felt something was wrong, she shook her head, but there were more and more double images in front of her eyes, more than her eyes. As soon as it got dark, the whole person fell down.

Mo Chen'an on the side yelled in shock: "Sister Gu! Sister Gu!" But there was no response.

The moment Gu Wanqing fell down, Xia He rushed over, supported the young lady, and looked at Mo Chen'an warily.

As soon as Mo Chen'an touched Xia He's eyes, he was frightened immediately, and said embarrassingly, "Sister Gu, she... seems to have passed out..."

Xia He frowned and looked at the lady, and then looked at the table. She had been behind the lady just now, but she didn't see that the lady was drinking, so she just ate some chrysanthemum cakes. How did she pass out so well?
Following Mo Chen'an's exclamation, the playing stopped, and everyone present looked this way. Gu Ziyu saw Gu Wanqing fainted, and a smug gleam flashed in his eyes.

"What's the matter?" The old lady fainted when she saw Gu Wanqing, her words revealed worry and anxiety.

"Quickly, quickly carry it to the wing room and call the doctor in the mansion!" The side princess immediately ordered.

All of a sudden, everyone was in a hurry, Xia He hugged Gu Wanqing, insisting that she was not inferior to others, whenever someone came to help Gu Wanqing, she would frown, with a cold face, rejecting people thousands of miles away, The servants in the palace did not dare to approach.

Xia He hugged Gu Wanqing and placed her in the wing of the palace, and stood guard. Later, the royal doctor of the palace also arrived, he was a certain age, and he hurried forward to take the pulse, and after a while, he tapped on Gu Wanqing's face again. , and then actually laughed.

Xia He looked at the doctor nervously, but he didn't expect the doctor to laugh, a little angry, but because he was in the palace, he didn't dare to do anything wrong.

"Doctor Liu, how is Miss Gu?" The old lady asked worriedly from the side.

Dr. Liu stroked his gray beard, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old lady, this Miss Gu is drunk, there is nothing wrong with her, she will wake up after sleeping."

"Oh? This kid is not good at drinking but he's a big drinker, hehe..." The old lady had always trusted Dr. Liu, seeing what he said, she looked at Gu Wanqing dotingly, and smiled.

Xia He and Mo Chenan looked at each other in surprise when they heard the words, it was obvious that Gu Wanqing hadn't even touched a drop of alcohol!

"Doctor Liu, are you sure that sister Gu is drunk?" Mo Chen'an asked suspiciously, fearing that he had heard it wrong.

Dr. Liu is already old, and several generations of his family have been practicing medicine, so he was a little displeased to be suspected by a junior like this, and said: "Naturally she is drunk, you can see that her face is flushed, her breathing is even, but it is a little heavy, come closer and smell it. There is also a smell of wine, not drunk, what is it?"

"Eh?" Mo Chen'an was puzzled, when did Sister Gu steal a drink behind her back?

"Because my lady has a small capacity for alcohol, I'm afraid she will get drunk and lose her manners. She didn't drink a single drop today." Xia He said coldly, always feeling that there was something weird about it.

Dr. Liu glanced at Xia He, then turned to look at the old lady, and asked, "Did the princess make the chrysanthemum cake herself?"

The old lady didn't know why, but she nodded.

"Did your miss eat a lot of chrysanthemum cakes?" Dr. Liu looked at Xia He and asked again.

Xia He nodded.

Mo Chenan on the side interjected, "The two big plates full were eaten by Sister Gu..."
