The princess raised her hand to interrupt Xiao Yun, "Come on, little ancestor, stop making noises. Today, all the guests are honored guests, more than 20 girls in total. What do you mean by sister-in-law? Do you think your brother is going to open a harem?"

"Mother, this is disrespectful." Xiao Yun said seriously, and raised the flower cake in her hand to stuff it into the princess' mouth.

The maid next to her turned her face and held back her laughter, leaving only the pearl flowers on her head trembling.

"Mother, if you don't eat it, your lipstick will be smeared." The princess took the silk cloth and pressed it on her face that was rubbed by the flower cake.

"Don't shout randomly later. If you don't know my name, you can call me sister. You can't go wrong."

The princess couldn't imagine that if this little ancestor accidentally called her sister-in-law, she would be embarrassed to death.

"Well, yeah."

Xiao Yun's mouth was full of flower cakes, and she really had no time to respond to her mother.

The little head nodded, the butterfly pearl flowers on the double buns danced, and the oriental pearls embedded in the tassel pendant kept shaking.

After a while, Xiao Dai came from the corridor, chatting and laughing with the girls who came to the banquet.

Xiao Dai knew that her mother wanted to train her ability to manage the family.

Standing in the colorful girls, her phoenix eyes were full of smiles, and she talked and laughed with the girls without any airs.

Aunt Cai looked at the girls who were getting closer and closer, with a smile on her eyebrows and eyes.

"The princess is lucky, and the banquet matters can be handed over to the eldest lady in the future."

The admiration in the eyes of the Princess of Yan was beyond words, "Not bad, you know how to advance and retreat, and you are at ease."

Anyone who is careful can see that the eldest lady's ability can be seen from the atmosphere of the scene.

Some of the girls in that group were known to Xiao Dai, and some were met for the first time. She did not miss anyone, and the atmosphere was lively and not dull.

Xiao Dai was the most eye-catching among the group of girls.

She was wearing a lilac pomegranate skirt, tall and slender, and her words and deeds were dignified and elegant.

Her appearance was like jade, and her temperament was pure and unworldly.

The girls filed in and saluted the princess.

The princess was so busy looking at the bright girls that she could hardly keep her eyes. If it weren't for her status, she would have wanted to hold hands with each of them and talk to them, and take a closer look.

"Today, we invite everyone to gather together. First, the Mid-Autumn Festival has just passed, so let's make up for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. The prince also found some exotic flowers and plants from outside to honor me. Everyone can enjoy them later. Don't be restrained."

The princess did not put on airs when talking to the girls, let alone call herself "this palace", just like a gentle elder.

The girls who were a little restrained at first were also active now, and they all looked outside the flower hall.

"The prince is thinking about the princess in his busy schedule. The princess is blessed to be so filial."

"These flowers are gorgeous and colorful, and many of them cannot be named. Let's take a good look at them later."

The girls praised without losing any opportunity.

"So it was the prince who came to find me. My brother will return to Yannan in a few days. He will definitely come to the palace to bother the princess."

The girl who spoke was Lin Ruyin, the sister of Xiao Jingzhao's good friend Lin Xiangzhi.

When Lin Ruyin talked about Xiao Jingzhao, her cheeks flushed, and her pretty face was a little shy.

Lin Ruyin was about sixteen years old, with white and tender cheeks like peeled eggs, crystal clear and tender, and eyes like water apricots.

Her black hair was tied into a ruyi bun, with only a delicate white jade hairpin inlaid with gold. Although simple, it was still fresh and elegant.

"Miss Lin is too polite. Xiangzhi is as close to Jingzhao as a brother. He should come to the palace to get together when he comes back."

"Sister Lin will come with you when the time comes. Yun'er hasn't seen you for a long time." Xiao Yun was like a naughty monkey. In a blink of an eye, she picked another flower in her hand.

Seeing Lin Ruyin, her phoenix eyes smiled like a fox that had eaten honey, flashing a cunning light, and she smiled and raised the flower in her hand to Lin Ruyin.

"Sister Lin, this flower is for you."

"Thank you." Lin Ruyin was flattered, took the flower with both hands and lowered her head to sniff, "It smells so good."

The girls all cast envious eyes at Lin Ruyin. The palace rarely held banquets. This time, Xiao Dai invited the girls to gather together.

Everyone with a discerning eye knew that the princess was going to look for girls for the two young masters of the palace.

Lin Ruyin won the favor of the second lady, which meant that she was one step closer to entering the palace.

As expected, Aunt Cai said to everyone with a smile:

"After appreciating the flowers, you can also go to the hall next door to appreciate calligraphy and paintings. The eldest young master recently hung up a masterpiece. Unfortunately, my eyesight is not good. The landscape painting looks like it is covered with a layer of fog."

"Aunt, your eyesight is fine. My eldest brother has a landscape painting that depicts the mist on the river. That painting is beautiful." Xiao Yun spoke seriously and looked like a person.

The girls walked towards the garden in twos and threes.

Only one girl walked along the corridor to the hall next door, and Xiao Dai followed her.

"Miss Su Hui? I heard my second brother mention Su Zhubu to my father. He was once a Jinshi. He is a rare talent with a promising future."

Xiao Dai had greeted Su Hui before. There were too many people just now, and she didn't have time to say a few more words to her.

"Miss Xiao, you are so kind. My father was able to enter the official career again because of the prince's appreciation. Su Hui is extremely honored to receive Miss Xiao's invitation." Although Su Hui is older than Xiao Dai, Xiao Dai's status is noble. She bowed slightly while speaking.

"Miss Su likes calligraphy and painting?"

As they talked, they came to the door of the hall. Xiao Dai saw Su Hui's eyes sparkling as she looked at the paintings in the hall, and asked with a smile.

"Yes, I like it very much. I have collected a painting just like the one "Autumn Mountain Late Green". The brush is full of ink, flowing like clouds and water, and the brushstrokes are like clouds and smoke. The artistic conception is also very beautiful.

Su Hui knew that the painting in her hand was from the hand of the eldest son Xiao Kang.

She also understood the purpose of the banquet in the palace today. In order to avoid suspicion and prevent Xiao Dai from misunderstanding that she had ulterior motives, she deliberately did not mention it.

"Miss Su may as well go in and appreciate it slowly. There are calligraphy works by Qinglingshanren and Zhendaxueshi. "

When Xiao Dai heard Su Hui's evaluation of the painting, she knew that she was an expert in painting.

After leading Su Hui into the hall and introducing the location of the calligraphy and paintings in the hall, Xiao Dai went out to entertain the other girls.

This hall is equivalent to the painting and calligraphy exhibition hall of the palace. There are calligraphy and paintings by talented people of all dynasties hanging in it. Su Hui can tell without looking at the signatures that there are more than 20 paintings and calligraphy by Xiao Kang alone.

On the other side, Xiao Kang heard the maid come to report that the princess was waiting for him to talk in the flower hall.

Today, the father went to the military camp, and the eldest sister invited the younger sisters to a party. Xiao Kang originally did not plan to leave the courtyard.

Now that he has no chronic illness, he walks a lot lighter.

Xiao Guizi privately learned the real intention of the eldest lady to hold the banquet.

Seeing his master hesitate, he encouraged: "Young Master, we go through the corridor on one side of the garden, and we will not bump into the girls who are enjoying the flowers in the garden. "

Xiao Kang thought it made sense. The master and servant walked through the corridor, entered the moon gate and walked along the corridor.

When passing by the hall, Xiao Kang saw a figure in the hall out of the corner of his eye.

Looking up, his eyes lit up and his feet stopped involuntarily.
