Chapter 141 The determination to steal the limelight

Because of his great contribution to defeating Xiliang Kingdom this time, the Marquis of Yong'an was granted the Duke's Mansion. Today's Marquis of Yong'an's Mansion is already the Duke's Mansion of Xuanguo.

Mrs. Xuan, the Duke's wife, has been preparing for this lantern festival for more than half a month.

"The lanterns in the Liyuan are all ready, Madam, do you want to see it in person?" the servant girl Zi Yan came in.

"I'll go see it in a while, have you prepared all the lantern riddles?"

"Don't worry, this servant has invited some students from the middle of the capital to prepare a lot of lantern riddles, and now they have all been hung in the lanterns."

Only then did Mrs. Xuan nod her head reassuringly: "That's good. This lantern festival is getting bigger and bigger. Now most of the famous ladies and noble sons in the capital are going to participate. There can be no mistakes in this matter."

Zi Yan smiled: "Madam's Lantern Festival has so many people coming every year, and Madam is so nervous. This year's nervousness must be because of the princess's marriage."

Mrs. Xuan gave her an angry look: "You know a lot."

Mrs. Xuan is of course for Xuan Chaoyuan. Chaoyuan is now nineteen. This year's Lantern Festival, it is rare that she is not at the border and hastened back to the capital. How can Mrs. Xuan miss such a good opportunity?

Moreover, Grandpa Guo has now issued a death order to Chao Yuan, and the marriage will be finalized this year, so she wants to continue this lantern festival to see each other for Chao Yuan's good life, even though she and Grandpa Guo have The candidate is that Miao Yuxuan. This lantern festival is also a good opportunity for the two of them to get along.

"Where is the princess?" Mrs. Xuan asked.

Zi Yan smiled and said: "I'm dressing up in the room. The princess is a natural beauty, but she rarely dresses up on weekdays. If she dresses up like this today, she will definitely be able to outshine everyone!"

"I'm just afraid that this girl will be disobedient, so I'll go and see for myself."

After Madam Xuan said that, she went to the courtyard where Yuan lived.

"Mother? Why are you here?" Chao Yuan looked up from the desk, and said in surprise: "The Lantern Festival is so busy."

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Xuan knew that she must be reading the battle report from the border again, and she was immediately annoyed: "I'm busy here and there without looking at who it is for! Are you intentionally embarrassing me? I I want you to dress up well, this dress has been brought to you, what are you still doing?"

Chao Yuan got up and helped her: "Mother, isn't it still early? The border has just sent this battle report. I want to see it clearly first. I don't worry about the lantern festival."

Mrs. Xuan poked her on the forehead: "Are you the only one who is in charge of the affairs here? You have returned to Beijing! Your father also arranged for someone to watch over there. No matter how bad it is, there is your father! Want you What are you meddling in here? Don't try to fool me and delay with me, change my clothes quickly! Mother comes to dress you herself!"

Chao Yuan asked for help and looked at Zi Yan beside Mrs. Xuan, Zi Yan looked up at the sky, pretending not to see.

Only then did Chao Yuan compromise helplessly: "Yes."

As the sky gradually approached dusk, the Duke's mansion became lively, and there was a lot of traffic at the gate of the mansion, so it was very lively.

Ding Youlan is wearing a Shu brocade Yunluo skirt today, with a brocade belt with tassels around her waist, and her collar clinks as she walks, not to mention anything else, even that dress, which is worth a thousand dollars, is enough to overwhelm everyone up.

It can be seen that she is determined to steal the limelight today.
