Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Chapter 103: Lotuses grow every step of the way

Everyone was stunned, and saw Prince Jing in a dark purple robe stepping in from the gate of the garden. He had handsome features, sharp eyebrows, a high nose bridge, thin but tightly pursed lips, and sharp and deep eyes. Gives a sense of oppression. The man in red who was following behind was even more beautiful, not like a woman but a little more beautiful than ordinary women, but with a somewhat frivolous smile on his face, his eyes wandered back and forth between Yunshang and Prince Jing.

Yun Chang frowned, this Prince Jing knew how to make enemies for her. Yun Chang took a look at the ladies behind her with a bit of infatuated eyes, and felt a little annoyed in her heart. She could see that these women were not staying in the courtyard where the female guests were active, but here The purpose of accompanying the old concubine to talk with several old ladies is probably to wait for Prince Jing to come to pay respects to the old concubine's birthday.

The old concubine asked her to bring these young ladies out, and these women were probably a little displeased, but because she was a princess, they were forced to do so, and maybe they also had a little bit of desire to see if she would become Princess Jing. What is so special about women.

"Tsk tsk, Luo Qingyan, you are really not kind. I don't even know when you and Princess Yunshang have reached the point where you don't want to marry a non-qing. Oh my god, such words will be taken from yours. I said it out of my mouth, I really should go and see if the snow that fell last night was red." Wang Jinhuan's exaggerated appearance attracted a few women to look sideways. It's so beautiful.

Yun Shang hooked the corners of her mouth thoughtfully, "I don't know, the princess, when did the emperor love this princess so deeply...Emperor uncle, if you say this, you won't be afraid that the prince will annoy you This play is really overdone." After speaking, without giving Prince Jing a chance to argue, he turned around with a smile and greeted the ladies behind him, "Ladies, let's go play in the front garden. "As he spoke, he took the lead to bypass King Jing and Wang Jinhuan, and walked out to the door.

But when Wang Jinhuan was passing by, he quietly reached out and flicked a needle in front of Wang Jinhuan, Wang Jinhuan stepped in without knowing it, took a step forward, screamed in pain, and rushed towards King Jing, "Luo said softly, Are you plotting against me again?"

When everyone heard the sound, they turned their heads and saw Wang Jinhuan hugging King Jing, pursing his mouth, looking at King Jing with a bit of water in his eyes, really looking like he was hesitant to say anything.

All the ladies present were ladies, who had never seen such a scene before, so they blushed and followed Yun Shang out of the garden in a hurry.

For a while, only King Jing and Wang Jinhuan were left in the garden. Wang Jinhuan had a confused look on his face. Just now, he was thinking about performing well in front of many girls, but he didn't know that when his feet suddenly hurt, he felt that he couldn't make a fool of himself alone. Pulled Prince Jing, but now, something seems wrong.

Looking at the dots of silver light on the ground, Prince Jing slightly raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand without a trace, and destroyed the silver needle.

"Didn't you say you were going to celebrate the old concubine's birthday? What are you dawdling about, why don't you hurry in?" Prince Jing said coldly.

Wang Jinhuan curled his lips, stood up, and walked into the room. Before anyone could go in, he heard him yelling loudly, "Princess Wangfei, I'm here to see you! Do you miss me..."

Yun Chang lowered her head, thinking secretly in her mind that she should investigate Wang Jinhuan carefully. Although this person seems to be not doing business properly, he is only the son of Minister of the Ministry of War, but he often stays with Prince Jing. People do not doubt.

"Ah, is it like this? Princess, don't be too sad..." It was Jing Wenxi who suddenly spoke, but the words were clearly consoling, but people could hear a bit of schadenfreude.

Yun Shang sighed faintly, "It's okay, in fact, Chang'er knew about it a long time ago, and the emperor's uncle begged his father to marry him because he was afraid that the matter between him and the prince would be told, and the rumors would hurt the prince, and Shang My son has always been weak and doesn't like to go out, so it's naturally the best shield. It's just these words and what you saw just now, Chang'er hopes that you have forgotten it now. The emperor's uncle has a bad temper, and he especially protects the prince. If he finds out, I'm afraid Chang'er won't be able to protect you."

Everyone said yes again and again, but the woman who refuted Jing Wenxi earlier turned her eyes and looked at Yunshang with a bit of inquiry in her eyes.

"This is Shi Zifei's younger sister, Wen Ruyu. She is a concubine, but she is extremely favored and has a bad temper." Qianyin's voice came again.

Yun Chang nodded, turned her head to Wen Ruyu with a smile and said, "Miss Wen is extremely beautiful, she is the most beautiful woman Chang'er has ever seen."

Wen Ruyu raised her eyebrows, but turned her eyes to the distance, and did not answer.

A ruthless look flashed in Jing Wenxi's eyes, and he smiled innocently, "Sister Wen is the most favored daughter of the Wen family, she is naturally extremely beautiful, and the jewelry used by Sister Wen is no better than that of any prostitute among us. It's bad, and every time there is a banquet, Mrs. Wen will always bring Sister Wen with her. Sister Wen will definitely marry a good family in the future. She is much more blessed than us, so she doesn't like to talk to others, princess Don't be angry."

Yun Chang narrowed her eyes slightly, it seemed that this Jing Wenxi looked innocent, and was controlled to death by that Wen Ruyu, but he didn't seem to be so worry-free. This passage not only pointed out that Wen Ruyu is a concubine, but also made the concubines present feel that, as a concubine, Wen Ruyu's jewelry was no worse than theirs. Inadvertently, it also made other women feel a little bit towards Wen Ruyu. malicious. Finally, let’s talk about Wen Ruyu’s beauty. The Wen family intends to let her get in touch with other aristocratic princes, and wants her to marry a wealthy family. Moreover, she is arrogant and feels that she can marry well, so even the princess herself is not willing to marry her. How to deal with it, what kind of rich and powerful family can not even look down on the princess, naturally it is the royal family. Although the words did not explain, but the meaning was very clear. He wanted to set up a barrier for Wen Ruyu so that she would not be able to enter the palace.

Yun Shang smiled and said, "Miss Wen has a very real temper." She stopped talking and walked towards the female guest's garden.

Jing Wenxi saw that Yunshang fell silent even though he said this, and guessing that Yunshang must be angry with Wen Ruyu, he felt a little joy in his heart, and followed Yunshang closely.

Although in the courtyard where the female guests are resting, most of the people were known by Yunshang in the previous life, but Yunshang has never been in contact with them in this life, so she couldn't rush forward, so she just found a place to sit and rest, and sat for a while Only Jing Wenxi was very interested, and kept talking to Yunshang, from the styles of clothes and jewelry currently being implemented in the imperial city, to the brothers and sisters at home. Yun Shang just listened and didn't answer.

After sitting for a while, it was already too early to start the banquet, and the palace sent Shi Zifei to invite everyone to the main hall for dinner.

When Yun Chang arrived at the main hall, she saw that the main seat was on the second floor, sitting with King Shunqing and the old concubine, King Jing was sitting next to King Shunqing, and Wang Jinhuan was beside Concubine Shunqing.

King Jing saw Yunshang from a distance, stood up, went downstairs, walked towards Yunshang, and said with a smile, "Why are you here now? Come on, come and sit here, Uncle Huang said he wants to see you Woolen cloth."

The uncle that Prince Jing spoke of was Prince Shunqing.

Yun Chang lowered her head, followed Prince Jing to the guest seat with a face of obedience, greeted King Shunqing and Princess Shunqing, and said, "Shang'er has met Prince Shunqing and Princess Shunqing."

King Shunqing laughed loudly when he heard the words, "Okay, okay, okay. I didn't have a chance to say hello to you on New Year's Eve, and now Chang'er is so big. The last time I saw you, you were still a small child. Speak softly After living alone for so many years, this king thought that he had no intention of marrying a wife, but he didn't expect that he only fell in love with you, a little girl, and he said lightly that the person he likes is naturally very good."

King Jing hooked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "My nephew didn't want to marry a wife on purpose. Before I met Yunshang, no one had ever tempted my nephew. My nephew felt that in this lifetime, I could meet a It's not easy to be a happy woman, and to be together, my nephew is very lucky."

Yun Shang only felt goose bumps all over her body secretly, but her face remained calm, and she was about to speak, but heard a secret voice, "No matter what, this king is still in a cooperative relationship with you now, this king helped you so many times..."

It seemed that he hadn't finished speaking, but Prince Jing didn't move. Yun Shang narrowed his eyes slightly. He was threatening her. Yun Shang smiled softly, "It's Chang'er's blessing."

"Where's Lin'an?" the old concubine asked softly.

Yun Chang lowered her head and took a sip of tea, Ning Lin'an is the son of King Shunqing, and also the eldest son.

King Shunqing smiled, and said softly, "It is said that it is arranging a performance. There are many people today, so I asked him to watch carefully for fear that something might happen."

The old princess nodded.

Yun Chang raised her head and saw a high platform on the opposite side. Behind the high platform was a red cloth with a big "Shou" character embroidered on it. Because upstairs, the movements on the high platform can be seen very clearly.

A woman in red walked up to the high platform from behind with a piano in her arms. Her face was covered with a white gauze scarf. It was just that pair of soul-stirring eyes that made everyone present lose their senses, and there was a gasp. .

Wang Jinhuan stood up suddenly, "Oh my God, it's Qianqian..." Then he turned his head and looked at Yunshang, "Grand...princess...it's Qianqian..."

Yun Chang frowned, raised her foot, and kicked towards Wang Jinhuan. Under the cover of the red tablecloth, no one saw Yun Chang's movements. Wang Jinhuan gasped violently, and Yun Shang quietly retracted her foot, but when she retracted her foot , touched the other foot.

Yun Chang frowned, raised her eyes to look at King Jing, but saw that his eyes were full of sarcasm.

"This woman's name is Qianqian? Who is she? Why does she look so seductive?" The old concubine turned her eyes away from the woman in red on the high platform, frowned, and muttered.

Wang Jin laughed flatteringly, sat down quickly, and said to the old concubine, "Ms. Wangfei, this is the hottest beauty in the imperial city now. My nephew spent a lot of money, but I couldn't see her. I didn't expect I actually saw it here..."

Princess Shunqing knew Wang Jinhuan's character very well, so she naturally knew what he meant, so she frowned and said, "So, this is a brothel girl?"

"Hey, concubine, you can't do this. People say that heroes don't ask about their origins, so there's no need to ask about this beauty. Is she a beauty, or a beauty with all talents? Concubine, this Qianqian girl's piano Chess, calligraphy and painting are excellent, there are few in the imperial city that can match, you just listen to the piano." Wang Jinhuan screamed, his mouth was full of protection for the Qianqian girl.

Princess Shunqing shook her head, "Just you monkey, I told you to stop running to those places, but you never listened, if only you were as stable as Prince Jing. "

Listening to Yun Shang, she felt that Princess Shunqing seemed to love Wang Jinhuan very much. Yun Shang recalled some memories of her previous life in her mind, but found nothing.

Prince Jing's secret voice came from beside him, "Princess Shunqing and Wang Jinhuan's grandmother are sisters, and they have a very close relationship."

No wonder, Yun Chang secretly remembered it in her heart.

The sound of the zither gradually rose, and everyone was immediately attracted by the sound of the zither. The people on the stage played a piece of "Plum Blossom Introduction". There is a dark fragrance, and the cold fragrance permeates the lungs. Gradually, the melody became louder, louder and warmer, and there seemed to be a proud plum tree in front of everyone, still standing tall and straight in the wind and snow. Afterwards, Qu Yin gradually returned to calm, as if the plum blossom calmed down after the snowstorm, sending only a dark fragrance.

The end of the song.

No one spoke for a while, as if she was still meditating in the tune, Yun Chang smiled slightly, gestured to the people on the stage, and then said softly, "It really is the sound of nature."

Only then did a burst of applause sounded.

The woman on the high platform stood up and gave a slight salute. Someone moved the piano down, but she didn't back down. Everyone's eyes were full of anticipation, this time, what will Miss Qianqian perform.

Only a burst of music was heard, but it was "Sheng Lian".

Wang Jinhuan's eyes were already wide open. The woman in red on the stage stretched out her hand and bent over. Wang Jinhuan hurriedly said, "Could it be that she wants to dance?"

Yun Chang turned her eyes to look at the guests at other tables, but saw that they were also looking straight at the woman in red on the stage. It's no secret, but no one has ever seen Qianqian girl dance.

The people on the high platform raised their hands and feet very enchantingly, walked a few steps lightly, and saw lotus flowers blooming everywhere they walked, and then, the fragrance of lotus flowers came over.

"The lotus grows every step of the way, it's so shockingly beautiful..." There was a faint voice of admiration, and a dark light flashed in Yun Chang's eyes. The more beautiful, the more poisonous it is.

Everyone seemed to be intoxicated by this wonderful dance. Yun Chang heard the music quietly changing the tune. The woman on the high platform raised her hand, and the veil on her face floated down, revealing a beautiful face. , with snow-like skin and picturesque eyebrows, she is obviously extremely pure, but she has a bit of charm.

Yun Shang heard the sound of cups and bowls falling to the ground one after another, and felt a little relieved.

After a while, Qianqian retreated, but everyone seemed to be still immersed in the dance, unable to recover for a long time. On the high platform, a new troupe has already started singing, and the song is "You Long Xi Feng".

"Wonderful." Prince Jing hooked the corners of his lips, and his eyes fell on Yun Chang who had been very quiet all this time, and said indifferently.

Wang Jinhuan swallowed his saliva and sighed, "The beauty in the world, the beauty in the world, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep for a long time."

Yun Chang has been paying attention to Prince Shunqing, but he seems to have seen nothing, his face is very calm, the maid is still serving food, King Shunqing recruited a maid, turned around and ordered something. Princess Shunqing looked at Wang Jinhuan with a smile, "Beauty is beauty, but you should stop thinking about it, your grandma will definitely break your leg."

Wang Jinhuan pouted, drank angrily, and said, "It's okay, I'll go find her quietly." After saying this, his eyes fell on Yun Shang, thinking to himself, anyway, Yun Shang The princess is the master of that Qianqian girl, it is better to be cheap to others than to be cheap to herself, and then she just needs to please Princess Yunshang, and now that the princess is so close to King Jing, it shouldn't be a problem to borrow her subordinates to use her.

Thinking of this, I felt extremely happy, and smiled and said to the maid beside me, "I want to eat sweet and sour pork."

Princess Shunqing smiled, "You monkey, I have already prepared it for you."

Wang Jinhuan quickly said coquettishly, "The princess is the best to me."

While talking, an old man in his fifties came up and bowed to King Shunqing and Princess Shunqing, "I have seen the prince."

King Shunqing nodded, "Is there anything wrong with Bachelor Wu?"

Yun Chang looked at the man carefully, wandered in his mind for a week, and then remembered that it was Wu Qi, a Hanlin scholar.

Wu Qi smiled and said, "I just heard my wife say that Princess Huiguo gave the old concubine an emerald birthday peach. Although my wife is a woman, she still has some experience in treasure identification. She said that looking at the color of water and the craftsmanship, It should be the handwriting of Master Jing'an Layman. The official has been admiring Jing'an Layman for a long time, and this emerald longevity peach has been famous for a long time. I just heard that this longevity peach has always been in the palace of King Xia, guarded by Xia Kingdom's secret guards, but I don't want to. It actually fell into the hands of Princess Huiguo, I really couldn't contain the excitement in my heart, so I rushed here to ask for a look."

"Oh?" King Shunqing raised his eyebrows. Even if he was dull, Yun Shang could tell that he was suspecting that the emerald longevity peach was fake.

Yun Shang smiled slightly and said, "Shang'er didn't know that the longevity peach had such a legendary origin, but it wasn't given by Shang'er, it was given to the old princess by the mother's mother. As for why it was in the hands of the queen mother, Chang'er has no way of knowing."

King Shunqing nodded, "Where did you pay the tribute, my concubine, where did you put the birthday peach? This king asked someone to pick it up."

The concubine smiled and said, "Everyone said earlier that the longevity peach was priceless, so the concubine put it in the secret compartment. Let the concubine let Nanny Chen get it." Then she called Nanny Chen to come over and let her go to pick it up. up.

After a while, the sandalwood box was taken out, and the old concubine took out the longevity peach herself, but she frowned the moment she took it out, "What's wrong with this emerald birthday peach? Why does it seem that there are bloodshots in it?" Huh?"\u003c
