Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 1139 Peach Blossom Banquet

  The current theme of this palace banquet is concubine selection. Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu, who are already engaged, and Huang Liyan, who are the cousins ​​of the two princes, do not need to appear on stage. Therefore, when Huang Liyan stood up, went to the Jiang sisters in front of everyone, and invited them to the side hall to rest together, the Jiang sisters could not refuse.

When the three of them got up, Queen Kang didn't look here, and the others didn't seem to notice their movements, and just stared at the stage.

   However, when Huang Liyan arrived at the side hall, she found that the steward of Huachun Palace was already waiting here with a smile. When Huang Liyan saw her, her eyes flashed slightly, and then she nodded and smiled at her generously, "Can you prepare some warm tea, mammy?"

  The steward nodded and motioned for the little palace maid to prepare tea. After the tea came, Huang Liyan, who was sitting comfortably on the soft chair, warmly greeted Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu, who had come back from the small room at the back of the side hall, "Young Yanle said that it will take another hour, let's not rush back, Let's have some tea and take a break here."

   "Okay." Jiang Muyan responded gently, shook her sister's hand lightly to remind her to be careful, and sat on the soft chair beside Huang Liyan. Unlike Huang Liyan's recklessness, the two sisters acted very well. Jiang Muyan picked up the tea, covered her face with her sleeve and pretended to take a sip, while Jiang Liu didn't move.

  Huang Liyan laughed and chatted with them, "The girl brought by the Princess of Fuyang County played the piano well, sister Yan'er, don't you think?"

   Jiang Muyan nodded affirmatively, "It's really not bad, and the other girls' talents are also very good. Today is an eye-opener for me."

  Jiang Liu immediately followed, "Sister, Sister Liyan, let's go back to the main hall and continue watching?"

  Huang Liyan pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister Liu'er, what's the hurry, we don't even have a hot chair."

  Jiang Liu replied with a naive look, "If the chairs here get hot, the cushions in our hall will be cold."

   The steward pursed her lips and smiled, secretly saying that this person is just like her father, she is really a wonderful person.

  Huang Liyan laughed, "Liu'er sister is right, let's..."

   Before Huang Liyan could finish speaking, the second princess Chai Huizhen and the third princess Chai Huihua came in from outside. After Qin Tianye's daughter Qin Xuejuan was put into the cold palace, the second princess Chai Huizhen and the fourth prince Chai Wenzhuo were brought up by Ning Concubine Bailan. Therefore, Chai Huizhen and Concubine Ning's daughter, the third princess, Chai Huihua, often go out together.

   No matter how the Qin family was defeated, no matter how the concubines in the palace treated Chai Huizhen, she was still the daughter of Emperor Jinghe and Princess Da Zhou. Huang Liyan and the Jiang sisters got up and greeted the two princesses.

  Chai Huizhen nodded lightly, and twelve-year-old Chai Huihua said with a bright smile, "I knew you were hiding here!"

After that, Chai Huihua went straight to Jiang Liu and sat down, and said affectionately, "Look closer, Jiang Liu's sister is so beautiful that I will be tempted. If I were a man, I would definitely fight with General Ren to marry Liu'er sister. go home!"

Before Jiang Liu could find the right words to go back politely, Huang Liyan covered her lips and smiled, "The third princess may not know that in the palace, the third sister Jiang is engaged to the second most beautiful man in Kang An, and the sixth sister Jiang is the youngest in our Da Zhou. After the engagement of the third-rank general, Kang'an City was shaken. Now there are people in the house who have not left the cabinet, and they can't wait to crowd into Jiang's house and ask Mrs. Le'an Hou for a peach blossom for a good marriage. "

Jiang Muyan secretly said something bad in her heart, and replied gently and respectfully, "Third princesses, don't take it seriously, Liyan sister Guan loves to tell jokes. People in Kang'an city go to Xuanduguan and other Taoist temples and temples with prosperous incense when they seek marriage. ."

Before the third princess said anything, the second princess said, "Speaking of peach blossoms, I heard that your house will hold a peach blossom banquet on the 18th. I wonder if there are any extra peach blossom posts in your house? My third sister and I want to go and see it. Peach blossom."

  The eyes of the third princess lit up, and she pulled Jiang Liu's sleeve and asked, "Sister Jiang Liu, is there anything else?"

  Liu Juntang's "Xilin Peach Blossoms" has been presented, which has been greatly appreciated by Emperor Jinghe, which has made the Jiang family a very famous peach blossom in Kang'an mansion, and its reputation has been improved to a higher level. After discussing with Mrs. Jiang, Yazheng decided to hold a peach blossom banquet. After Jiang Erye was awarded the title of Marquis of Le'an, officials of the third rank and above who sent gifts to the Jiang mansion, as well as officials from the palaces, the mansions, and the uncles were invited. female relatives.

   This is the customary rule of Kang'an City, and it cannot be avoided. If the banquet is done well, everyone takes it for granted. If it is not done, it will become a joke. Everyone in the Jiang family attaches great importance to this.

Since the two princesses have already asked for invitations, Jiang Liu has no room to refuse, so he can only say with surprise, "Our house is small and there are only more than 20 peach blossoms. If the two princesses are willing to visit, my sister and I will come. Immediately after I go back, I will make two gilded invitations and send them here."

  Er Ye Jiang was awarded the title of Marquis of Le An, but Long Live has not given him a mansion. Although the Jiang family's yard is not small, it is nothing compared to the palaces of princes and marquis.

   Hearing Jiang Liu's words, the second princess, Chai Huizhen, looked up at her, and it happened that Jiang Liu was looking at her with a smile. Seeing the unrecognizable joy in Jiang Liu's eyes, Chai Huizhen evoked a small smile, and replied in her slightly cold voice, "There are not too many flowers, and the elegant room is not too big."

"Second princess's mouth is perfect, she's amazing." Jiang Liuxiao rolled her eyes, her appearance was already excellent, and her smile made Chai Huizhen dazed for a while, secretly thinking that it's no wonder that cousin Qin Chengbi loves her so much, even if she dies, To die at her hands.

   The four of them rested in the side hall for about a quarter of an hour before returning to the main hall to continue enjoying the music. After the palace banquet was over, the female family members thanked and retired.

   Mrs. Huang was still walking with Yazheng, Jiang Liu did not walk with Bai Fengyuan this time, but stood beside Huang Liyan. Walking out of the palace gate to the carriage, Jiang Liu raised his hand and grabbed Huang Liyan's sleeve, begging, "Sister Liyan, when the peach blossom feast, can you please come with me to welcome the two princesses to our house? I don't understand. As a rule, I am afraid that I will neglect the two princesses, and I will thank you sister Liyan well afterward, okay?"

  Huang Liyan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at her grandmother who was walking in front.

   Jiang Liu's voice was not small, which caught the attention of Mrs. Huang and Yazheng in front, and Mrs. Xiangyihou and Mrs. Pingxihou behind them, and the ladies stopped to look over.

Sisters are heart-to-heart, Jiang Muyan knew what she was thinking without having to discuss with her sister in advance, and explained to Yazheng, "Mother, daughter and sister accompany sister Liyan to the side hall to rest, sister Liyan told the second and third princesses Speaking of the peach blossoms in our house, the two princesses said they would come when they heard that our house was going to hold a peach blossom feast."

  Yazheng said with a clear mind and a happy face, "It's our honor that the two princesses are willing to come. After we go back, we have to prepare well, and we can't let the two princesses come and return in disappointment."

   Mrs. Huang gave her granddaughter a stern look before she took Yazheng's hand and said with a smile, "It's a big event for the princess to leave the palace, so she has to prepare well. Yan'er, you and Liu'er will come to the palace to welcome the two princesses."
