Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 97
Ling Xiyun's charming eyes narrowed slightly, the playful luster settled down, and the glint in the eyes flickered.

"Xianxue, what's the matter?" A low-pitched and cold female voice came out from the gorgeous carriage, and then a slender catkin lifted the curtain, revealing a beautiful uncut face.

Her slender eyebrows are picturesque, her eyes are like spots of lacquer, her nose is small and smooth, and her lips are as red as peaches.The forehead is full and round, the skin is fairer than snow, and the catkins are as white as green onions.The aura between the brows is full of dignity, and the air is noble and contains a subtle arrogance.The corners of the eyes flashed a subtle luster, as if disdain and arrogance suddenly appeared.

As soon as the woman appeared, those young masters who were standing still beside her were stunned for a moment.

"Miss." The proud servant girl ran over obsequiously, "Someone is blocking our way."

The woman's eyes as black as ink slightly scanned the stunned people around her, she seemed a little disdainful while being proud.

"Elder Sister." Another slender catkin stretched out, and the curtain was pulled back, revealing a face that was somewhat more beautiful than the woman just now.The crowd gasped again.This person Ling Xihan recognized was Wu Xixue, the grand master's second daughter whom she met on the boat that day.She called that woman the eldest sister, so the woman before that was Wu Qingyun, who was known as the 'perfect artist'.Sure enough, she was born with a beautiful appearance and a beautiful country.Although she is slightly inferior to her younger sister, she has a cold and arrogant temperament that Wu Xixue can't match.

Wu Xixue glanced across the crowd lightly, her eyes stopped on Ling Xihan, seemingly surprised.

"Princess Changle?"

As soon as Wu Qingyun showed up, she recognized Ling Xiqing, who was the leader of the three masters, with a slight sarcasm at the corner of her mouth.With the help of the maid, she jumped off the carriage, and Wu Xixue jumped off afterward.

"It turns out to be Princess Changning (Ling Xiqing's title) of the Prince of Zhongyi's residence. Qingyun is rude." Wu Qingyun said with a cold expression, and Wu Xixue followed suit.

Ling Xiqing took two steps forward, and returned the salute slightly.

"It turned out to be Sister Qingyun, but Sister, I'm so blind that I didn't recognize her."

Only now did Ling Xihan have the opportunity to look at their clothes.

Wu Qingyun was wearing a pleated skirt embroidered with bright red strands of gold. The skirt was embroidered with large peony flowers of the same color, which were in full bloom in the skirt, dazzling.She was covered with a pink upper garment, her breasts were half wiped, and she was covered with a silk jade-colored down jacket, revealing her slender and fair neck.Chu's waist is slender, and a wine red brocade belt is wrapped around her waist, and a delicate and gorgeous jade pendant is pinned to her waist.On the head is a beautiful Wangxian bun, a shining golden step is inserted obliquely on the sideburns, and hairpins are placed on the plugs on both sides of the head.A purple line was drawn in the corner of the eye with a paintbrush, adding to the charming color, a pair of pearl earrings were worn on the earlobes, and a pair of delicate orange-red gem-studded embroidered shoes were worn under the feet.

The whole person is full of pearls and jade from top to bottom, the brilliance is bright, gorgeous and not vulgar, just like the dazzling sun.

And Wu Xixue next to her was obviously much more low-key.

Today she was wearing a goose yellow skirt and a smoky jacket, with a few blooming white lotuses embroidered on the skirt, surrounded by large lotus leaves, showing the nobility of the lotus.A concubine-colored belt was tied around her waist, and a delicate and elegant purse hung down.A flying cloud bun is combed on the head, three red hairpins are inserted in the bun, and a few hair accessories are decorated.A little powder is applied on the beautiful face, and the red lips are full of vermilion.The whole person is elegant but generous, concise without losing identity.Although she was pale in front of the dazzling Wu Qingyun, her elegant and refined face raised her outfit to a higher level.Standing together, the two have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they are both stunning in the world.

The floating crowd stood still for a long time, staring at this large group of stunning beauties in a daze.

Ling Xihan was too lazy to watch them flatter and praise each other, and turned around lightly.

"Second Sister, if you don't leave later, it will be dark when you go home after admiring the flowers." Ruoyu and Ruoxue have already followed, and they don't like this group of women who pretend to be arrogant.

The smile at the corner of Ling Xiqing's mouth froze, Wu Qingyun followed the voice and only had time to see a haughty and lonely back.Although she didn't see Ling Xihan's face, just the indifferent and slim figure from her back is enough to show that this woman's demeanor is peerless, unparalleled in the world.A gleam of light flew across her pupils, and a stunned light settled in her eyes.

"Cousin." Ling Xiwan came over and called out intimately.Mrs. Lu is not only the cousin of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, but also the distant cousin of the grand teacher's wife.Therefore, Ling Xiwan and Wu Qingyun are naturally cousins.

Wu Qingyun turned her head, glanced at Ling Xiwan coldly, and nodded lightly, not being very affectionate.

"My cousin is here too."

Her alienation caused Ling Xiwan to frown slightly, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said: "Yes, today's weather is good, and I heard that Baohua Temple is full of Qionghua, which is beautiful and colorful. So I came here specially Come enjoy the flowers."

A group of people exchanged a few pleasantries, and a few gorgeous sedan chairs stopped behind, and Li Ying walked out in twos and threes.If Ling Xihan comes again, he will definitely recognize them.

These people were Zhang Xiaohuan, Zhong Peirong, Wen Daiqin, and Feng Danhui who they met on the boat that day.And then came Qiao Yingxia and Xiao Qilan.In short, almost all the official ladies in the capital came to Baohua Temple today, as if they had made an appointment.

Ling Xihan, who was walking in front, couldn't help wondering, "Ruoxue, Ruoyu, what day is it today? Why do so many people come to Baohua Temple on the same day?" Even if it's for viewing flowers, they can't be so courteous, right?
"Miss, you don't know about this." Ruoxue said with high spirits: "Every year today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Ninghuai will come to Baohua Temple to play chess and taste tea. The Empress is crazy about flowers. Although this Qionghua is beautiful and rare But it is not suitable for planting. Therefore, even though there are thousands of flowers gathered in the imperial palace garden, only Qionghua is missing. By the way." She suddenly thought of something, and explained to Ling Xihan: "I heard that the reason why the empress founded the three The annual Qionghua banquet is also because of this."

"En." Ruoyu took the words: "The prince will come to Baohua Temple every year today, so that he can pick off the Qionghua and give it to the queen when it is the most beautiful blooming."

Ruoxue said with a smile: "So, those famous ladies are here to enjoy the flowers, but they really want to see the prince's true face."

Ling Xihan pursed his lips knowingly, and sarcasm flashed habitually in his eyes.Xiao Tingxuan and Ouyang Chen are known as peerless twins, they can be said to be the dream of unmarried girls all over the world.Usually these two people are secretive, and it is rare to gather together today. Of course, these women will not let go of this opportunity to get along with them.

"Then today will be very lively." A playful smile flashed in her eyes.It turned out that the group of women wanted to destroy her in full view.Well, yes, it is indeed a good strategy.I just don't know what role Ling Xiqing played in this.

"Of course." Ruoxue was obviously in a good mood, "Miss, you don't know, there is actually a legend about Qionghua."
