The Blessing of Traveling to Pregnancy

Chapter 28

The next day, when Qingmei appeared in front of everyone with two dark circles under her eyes, pale complexion, and a very gothic beauty, all the maids and mothers gasped.

——Miss, this is because I was too excited to go to the Princess Mansion Flower Banquet, so I didn't sleep well...

Everyone thought the same way.Hastily changed Qingmei's clothes, brought her to the dressing table to dress up, and after a while, the thick dark circles under her eyes were finally suppressed, and the rouge touched her face with blood.

Xu glanced at it and nodded in satisfaction.At this time, Qingyou and Qingran came to pay their respects, and it could be seen that they had also been well-dressed.Qingfang is young, so naturally she won't be taken out for this flower banquet.All the way to the Princess Mansion, Qingmei looked drowsy, and Zhang's mother was terrified when she saw it.

The eldest princess and the emperor's first wife are compatriots. Today's queen mother has two sons and two daughters. Although the four brothers and sisters were born in the Tian family, the relationship between the four is very close.The eldest princess has already been married and has set up another mansion in Beijing.Qingmei's impression of the royal family only exists in the few episodes of TV series she watched in her previous life and the news reports on foreign royal families.I thought that this eldest princess should be a gorgeous girl who leads the fashion trend in the capital, but now I see a person with a little baby fat on her face, who loves to smile very much.

The folk customs of this dynasty are open, although men and women have different seats, after the main banquet, many people still came to pay their respects to the princess.It is common for men and women to meet and laugh in public.Qingran and Qingfang have already participated in many flower banquets, although this time the specifications are higher, but the content of the flower banquet is similar, so the two are still able to handle with ease among the ladies.Zhang's mother saw that Qingmei stayed silently aside, although she felt a little sorry, but after thinking about it, with Qingmei's temperament, it would be better for her to be quiet.

After sitting for a while, Qingmei felt really sleepy and uncomfortable. If she continued to sit like this, she would fall asleep on the table regardless, and had to get up and move around to drive away the nap bugs dangling in front of her eyes.After coughing in a low voice, Zhang's mother hurriedly approached, "Miss, what's the matter?"

Qingmei said, "Go and relieve yourself." After much deliberation, this is the only way to get her out temporarily.

Ms. Zhang nodded, she didn't know what she had said to others, so Qingmei quietly left the table through the small door beside her.Just two steps away from the main hall, I heard bursts of laughter suddenly coming from inside, as if something interesting happened.Qingmei didn't have that interest, she and Zhang's mother followed the maid who led the way to the west pavilion.

"smell good."

Walking towards him was a maid carrying a wooden tray with an exquisite incense burner on it.Qingmei's drowsy head suddenly woke up.

The maid leading the way suddenly stopped and said, "Stop!"

The little maid holding the incense burner stopped inexplicably, "Is there something wrong?"

"The princess's main hall is in front. Where are you going? Just now the princess asked why the newly prepared spices haven't been delivered yet."

The little maid was startled, "Oh, I thought this incense burner was going to be delivered to the son-in-law, thank you sister for reminding me."

Say it, and hurried forward with the wooden plate.

The maid turned her head and nodded slightly, "I made Miss Lin laugh."

Qingmei smiled, "It's okay, let's continue to lead the way."

When she went back again, all the ladies were in groups of three or four, admiring the flowers in the garden, or listening to the opera in front.Seeing her coming, Qingyou and Qingran rushed to meet her.Here they represent the entire Lin family, no matter how inconsistent Qing You and Qing Ran are in their house, once they leave the house, they are outstanding representatives of the affectionate sisters!

"Qingmei, you're here too." At some point, Qian Jiao, who hadn't seen her for a long time, came unexpectedly.The ladies around all looked sideways, and said Qingran, "This is my fourth younger sister, she has a relatively quiet temper."

It was only then that everyone noticed Qingmei, and the eyes from all directions made Qingmei feel that she was the suffering Jesus who was crucified on the cross...

"Qingmei, you left for a while just now, but you lost your eyesight." Qian Jiao smiled.

Qing Mei wondered, "What kind of blessing?"

Qing Ran glanced at Qian Jiao, feeling a little unhappy.It's good for everyone to talk about this kind of thing in private, and it's so happy to say it in public, don't they, the young ladies of Lin's family, are as ignorant as your low-level distant relatives?Qingyou was also a little displeased, but she wanted to please her daughter-in-law, so she immediately came over with a smile to make a relief, "It's not a big deal, I'll talk to you later." He walked over and laughed at some interesting things he had just heard, but he turned the page.

Seeing Qingyou and Qingran protecting Qingmei together, Qian Jiao probably guessed Qingmei's current status in her heart.She wanted to take this opportunity to test it out, but now that the results came out, she immediately returned to normal, "Look, I forgot the rules as soon as I saw Qingmei happy! I was negligent just now, let's make up for Xiaoqingmei. .”

Qingmei was a little dizzy from what these three people said, she left for a while just now, what happened?
It wasn't until the people gathered around them dispersed in twos and threes that Qing You said: "When my sister left just now, she happened to drive the Zhuangyuan Lang in to greet the princess with a toast."

"Oh." Qingmei nodded, but for her these words went in one ear and out the other.

Seeing that she didn't care much, Qian Jiao immediately said, "It is said that he is the most beautiful man in the dynasty, and he came from a famous family in the south of the Yangtze River."

Qing Ran couldn't help sneering, "Being the most beautiful man in the court? This is too much. But Miss Qian knows this very well."

Qian Jiao was slightly stunned by the smile she said.

Qing Ran has always disliked Qian Jiao, but because of her distant relationship with the Minister of Rites, she rushed to the capital, almost every flower banquet was held, and it seemed that [-]% of them wanted to climb up in the capital. A family.

The four of them were talking when Fang Ai, Qian Jiao's cousin, came.

"I said I couldn't find you, did you hide here to whisper?" Fang Ai walked into the small gazebo, and when she saw Qingmei, she didn't look her up and down like the others, as if what she saw was just an old man. He smiled naturally like a friend, "When a newcomer comes, why don't you hear about me, the old one?"

Comparing the two, Qing Ran can't help sighing - this is the appearance of a lady who has been nurtured in a big family since she was a child, neither humble nor overbearing, neither makes people feel indifferent, nor lowers her status.

Qing You covered her face and said, "Who dares to neglect you? Who doesn't know that Fang Ai is famous for your sharpness! Just now you and Ms. Liu were having a lively chat, so don't bother us."

Fang Ai sneered, "You are the one with the most powerful mouth, and you still blamed me."

Ms. Liu is the daughter of the prime minister. Fang Ai's father recently wanted to accommodate the prime minister for some matters in the officialdom. Although she can't do anything for her father as a daughter, Ms. Liu still has to make friends. Maybe I can get some news for my father.Turning around and praising Qingmei again, "This is the Fourth Miss. I have long heard that the Fourth Miss in the Lin Mansion is a cold beauty, but seeing her now is a well-deserved reputation."

Qingmei nodded slightly, "Hi, Miss Fang."

Fang Ai politely returned the gift, since she already knew that Qingmei was cold-tempered, naturally she wouldn't chat with her too much.Fang Ai is the second daughter of Fang Shilang from the Ministry of Rites. She loves to talk, laugh and love to be lively. Where she is, she will never be left alone. Therefore, every young lady will give her a name card when they gather.Firstly, it was because of her status as a direct descendant, and her popularity with the two of them was really good.

Qian Jiao's feelings for her cousin are very complicated, and she often thinks that if she has such an identity, she must be more pleasing than her.If I talk like her, I will definitely be said to have no tutor!But just because she took the title of a prostitute, this unscrupulous personality became cheerful, lively, and romantic in others' mouths.

Because of Fang Ai's joining, everyone immediately became lively.The topics of conversation also gradually became rich and interesting. Qingmei sat quietly and listened, nodding or humming from time to time to show respect for the speaker.But the other four people are not as leisurely as she is, and they have to figure out each other's intentions separately.Although Fang Ai didn't care much about Qingmei on the surface, he was still curious in his heart.Xindao, wait until you get along with Qingyou and Qingran in private, and then ask carefully.

In another yard, Liu Chengxu, who was socializing with everyone, was even more uncomfortable.The title of the new top scholar made him the object of fawning and fawning.Liu Chengxu responded one by one, with a wry smile in his heart--Third Uncle, you have made me miserable now!
Sitting at another table not far away, Wang Cen looked at Liu Chengxu who was circling among the crowd with disdain, and said in a low voice, "Hmph, I don't know how capable this new champion is! My lord, let me put my head away." Put it down here, if he has nothing to do with Liu Xiang as the No.

Xie Yunzhao rolled his eyes at him, "You'd better swallow those words, lest you get kicked with your head like a ball, don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Hey! Isn't it..." Wang Cen looked at him incredulously, "Do you also think that he passed the exam based on his real skills?"

"I read his exam paper." Xie Yunzhao said quietly.Wang Cen looked forward to his next words, only to hear Xie Yunzhao continue, "It's a mess, it's horrible!"

"Pfft——" Wang Cen immediately covered his mouth, and finally swallowed the wine, "He's still the number one scholar?! Is this year's new champion of love sold by the catty?"

Xie Yunzhao glanced at Liu Chengxu calmly, "It's not easy to answer the test paper like him."

Wang Cen was taken aback for a moment, thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized, "You said... he answered this on purpose?"

As a result, Xie Yunzhao stopped talking suddenly, and Wang Cen couldn't help being anxious, and asked, "Is that right?"

"Guess?" Xie Yunzhao suddenly smiled.

Wang Cen: "..." Sometimes he really wants to kill this bastard!

"Whether it's intentional or not, it doesn't matter anymore. As long as he comes to take the exam, he is destined to be the champion of this year's new subject." Xie Yunzhao took a sip of his wine, with a cold expression on his face.Wang Cen knew that this was an expression of his brother's displeasure, and he couldn't help sighing, "Hey, our Prime Minister Liu is still so virtuous and doesn't avoid relatives. I heard that Prime Minister Liu's daughter is also coming to the flower banquet, you have to pay attention Already."

"Attention?" Xie Yunzhao sneered, "Does that old man still want to push her daughter to me? He's dreaming!"

Wang Cen patted him on the shoulder, "I'm afraid he will go to our emperor to ask for a marriage. Now that even the scientific examination can be played with applause, your marriage...you can ask for blessings."

Xie Yunzhao held his breath in his chest.He is a majestic prince, and the current emperor's younger brother is going to be coerced into marriage by a courtier, and he feels extremely aggrieved by his life!But the queen mother once said, "The most wronged person in this world is your elder brother! And you are his own younger brother, his only help! I only sigh that we orphans and widows back then, if it weren't for Liu Yan, we are now sitting on the dragon chair I'm afraid there are others."

Seeing his impatient face, Wang Cen quickly comforted him, "Isn't she just a woman? I'm just at your mercy when she gets married, what tricks can she do! Just treat it as if there is one more person in the house to eat, add more Just give her a bed to sleep in."

Xie Yunzhao closed his eyes slightly, trying to calm his mind.

Wang Cen poured him a glass of wine, "Come, come, don't worry about those troubles. Today is the eldest princess's flower banquet, please be happy." Just as he was speaking, Liu Chengxu walked towards them holding his wine glass.
