At the corner of the street opposite, a low-key and inconspicuous carriage was parked. Xiao Jingxuan sat in the car and quietly watched what happened on the street. When the old man kowtowed Chu Xinyu, he glanced at Yun Xiao, who was sitting opposite him and asked, "Did you do it?"

Yun Xiao looked a little embarrassed and scratched his head and said, "You asked me if I could not help my cousin go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet, or if I could delay it. My subordinate thought of this, and it would be delayed until she missed the time to enter the venue."

Xiao Jingxuan pursed her lips, "You go back and get the whip."

"Why?" Yun Xiao looked up in shock.

"Do you think this method is feasible?"

Yun Xiao looked at the person watching outside the window and said, "Although he couldn't stop her from going to the Baihua Banquet, at least he helped her restore some reputation. Are you satisfied with the kindness of the cousin?"

Xiao Jingxuan scoffed, "Famousness? What are you going to do? She doesn't need such a vague thing." If he cared about her reputation, how could he acquiesced to those people send her to Jinling Temple?

He watched the carriage drive away for a distance before he put down the curtain and ordered lightly: "Go to Prince Chu's Mansion."

Yun Xiao said a little surprised: "Master, didn't you say you couldn't go?" Prince Chu sent him a post, and he placed it all over his body, and didn't even look at it, thinking that he wouldn't go.

“The situation has changed.”

Yun Xiao knew that his master had made a decision, so he didn't dare to say much, so he asked his husband to turn the carriage to the direction of Prince Chu's mansion.

Xiao Jingxuan didn't want to go there originally. Since some people and things do not intend to have another intersection in this life, there is no need to meet again, just...

Thinking of it, I seemed to see the girl who hugged me and cried with regret. The pitiful appearance of pear blossoms and rain made people feel distressed for a while.

——Cousin, he lied to me, he said he would marry me... I regret it very much. If I hadn't attended the banquet that day, that wouldn't have happened. What should I do in the future?

The girl he once vowed to protect for the rest of his life, but let her be treated like this by that person under his nose? He didn't have time to protect her in his previous life, and he would never let her repeat the same mistake in this life.

I originally thought that letting her stay in Puling Temple and letting someone protect her secretly, stay away from the disputes in the capital and stay away from that person was the best arrangement for her. But I still knew that the trajectory of fate would still develop in this direction. It seems that some things are inevitable after all.

The carriage had just been turned, and a red satin hanging carriage slowly drove from the direction of the carriage from Zhongyi Hou Mansion. At a glance, it was the carriage that was specially adopted by the noble ladies of the famous lady when she was traveling.

Xiao Jingxuan lifted the curtains of the car window and saw the carriage with rich peonies embroidered on the curtains, and fine jade bells hanging in the middle, which looked very luxurious. His eyes swept over the ruby ​​embedded in the roof cover, and a faint sneer appeared at the corner of his lips, and then slowly lowered the curtain.

Although the street was very spacious, when passers-by saw two carriages coming over together, they all avoided making way.

When the red satin carriage passed by this low-key and gorgeous carriage, the red curtains were lifted up, revealing a beautiful and elegant face. Her eyes fell on the window where she passed by. The thin gauze curtains were moved by the wind, and a clear side face contour was faintly visible. She immediately narrowed her eyes slightly.

The woman beside her glanced inadvertently and shouted in surprise: "Hey, isn't this the King of Qin's carriage?"

King of Qin?

The fourth son of the emperor is now named King of Qin when he became an adult. He heard that he loves to grow flowers and calligraphy and looks better than Pan An. Although he has no real power for the time being, he is very chasing man by women in the capital.

Luo Yunqing didn't expect that when he first arrived in the capital, he met the King of Qin. Looking at the direction his carriage was heading, could he go to the Prince of Chu's mansion like him?

"Why, you like him too?" The woman beside her looked at her with a smile.

"A gentleman is like a jade, unparalleled in the world. Even a beautiful woman like my cousin pays attention to him. It is no longer a question of whether I can look down on him." Luo Yunqing smiled and said, "A such a person is probably worthy of only noble girls with noble origins and talented people. I dare not imagine."

Seeing that she didn't seem to feel anything about the King of Qin, the woman seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but said, "Cousin, don't belittle yourself. After all, you are also the granddaughter of your business chief minister and the granddaughter of Luo Wei, the right-sponsor of Jiangxi governor, is not impossible if you have the will."

The speaker was Shang Chunhua, the granddaughter of Shang Ge Lao. Luo Yunqing was the daughter of her sister-in-law. Mrs. Shang loved her daughter who was married from another place very much. Seeing that her eldest daughter was about to be in the age of marriage, she specially took her to Jinjing to find a marriage for her in Jinjing.

It happened to meet the Hundred Flowers Banquet held by the Prince Chu Mansion, so I asked my granddaughter to take my granddaughter to see and make some powerful friends in the circle. If I could find a marriage, of course, it would be best. Most of the children who could attend the banquet were the families of officials above the third rank, and their identities would not be bad.

Luo Yunqing smiled, but did not answer the words. He looked out the window and found that the King of Qin's carriage was driving very slowly. He just passed by, so he did not see them following him.

About three quarters of an hour, the carriage was parked at the main entrance of Prince Chu's mansion, and the two got off the carriage.

Looking up, what was reflected in the eyes were two mighty stone lions in front of the door, and the gilded plaque shone brightly in the sun.

The servant and the maid had bright smiles on their faces and stood in front of the gate to greet the guests.

"But the third girl from the Shang Dynasty is here?" The maid came up and asked enthusiastically.

"Yes." Shang Chunhua handed over the invitation.

After the maid saw it, she immediately invited them into the room.

Luo Yunqing gently lifted the hem of the skirt and stepped up the steps. He looked up inadvertently and saw a red apricot figure. She was talking to the maid. Her side face was so beautiful and she had a slight smile on her lips. The women standing beside her looked good, but they were not as eye-catching as the woman.

"Who is wearing red apricot clothes?" she asked Shang Chunhua.

Shang Chunhua glanced at it and shook her head. She didn't know her, but there were two women around her who were familiar with her. She had seen them at a banquet for relatives and friends, and said, "The person wearing water-blue clothes is the third girl of Zhongyi's Hou Mansion, and the person with rouge clothes is the sixth girl. She is with them, either her sister or a friend."

The maid said, "She is Miss Chu Wu, and it was specially invited by our princess."

"Miss Chu Wu? It's Chu Xinyu!" Shang Chunhua was very surprised when he heard that Princess Zhaoyang invited Chu Xinyu to the banquet, he felt strange. How could Princess Zhaoyang invite someone like her?

Now that she saw her, she finally understood a little. If she hadn't believed the rumors, such a girl would look so dazzling. She noticed her at first sight when she got off the carriage and thought she was a famous lady.

Seeing that his cousin's expression was strange, Luo Yunqing asked curiously: "What kind of person is she?"

Shang Chunhua said: "A daughter of a noble family who is said to be a slutty and rude is just a thing of the past. We cannot use the previous rumors to always count alone."

She is a clear person. No matter how her sisters fight, they must put family interests first after leaving. She doesn't want Luo Yunqing to downplay this person or disdain to date him because she heard the rumors. Because some people, even if they are so unbearable, if they can still get involved in the aristocratic circle, it means that this person has certain means or backstage.

Besides, Chu Xinyu and others were led into the door by the servants of the royal palace. When the maid saw Chu Xinyu take out the invitation, she saw that it was the princess’ birthday invitation. She was very enthusiastic about her and did not wait any longer.

Yang Lianxin has been visiting the mansion for the first time since she arrived in the capital. In her opinion, the Marquis' Mansion is already very good, but Prince Chu's Mansion is larger and more gorgeous than the Marquis' Mansion. Carved beams and painted buildings, flying eaves and cliffs, pavilions, towers, pools, water pavilions, and longing and envy can be seen everywhere.

The maids in the royal palace are well-trained and are no longer surprised by the envious look of guests. They neither contempt nor despise them, and are happy to give them guidance on where to go and where to enter the royal palace.

Because Chu Xinyu's invitation was different from others, after entering the gate, a maid took her to Princess Zhaoyang's Wutong Courtyard, while Chu Jiapeng and the others were taken to Baihua Garden.

The flower viewing banquet is held in Baihua Garden.

Chu Jiating also wanted to follow her and said she wanted to give the gift to Princess Zhaoyang himself, but was blocked by the maid and went back.

The maid said that the gifts were received by a specific maid and then sent to Princess Zhaoyang. Otherwise, there would be so many people who would have to hand over the gifts to her in person and chat for two or three more sentences. Wouldn't it be a day without a day?

But Chu Xinyu is different. She is a guest specially invited by Princess Zhaoyang, and her gifts can be delivered in person.

Today it was Zhu Bo and Chu Xinyu. She was afraid that there would be a mistake in the gift, so she kept holding the box all the way. Fortunately, the gift was not heavy.

Yang Lianxin came with Chu Xinyu. When she heard that Chu Xinyu could send gifts in person, she was very excited. Princess Zhaoyang, the noble girl she wanted to attach to even her dreams, but she took the opportunity.

What my mother said was true. Only by following Chu Xinyu in the royal palace would you have the opportunity to recognize the powerful or make friends. As long as she did not do something embarrassing, Chu Xinyu would not ignore her.

Chu Jiating had nothing on the surface, but she felt very regretful. She and Yang Lianxin were so good at first. She could give gifts to Princess Zhaoyang personally, which meant that she had a little more chance to get close to her. Maybe she would like her gifts very much.

Chu Jiapeng didn't care. She didn't like socializing at first, but happened to meet her cousin He Mulian, so she gave the gift to the maid of the royal palace, and went to Baihua Garden with them.

"Chu Jiating."

Gu Qing'er and Tong Zhen were led in by the maid. The sharp-eyed Tong Zhen saw Chu Jiating and walked towards her.

"Why are you the only one, what about your step sister?" Tong Zhen disdains to call Chu Xinyu's name and deliberately uses her step sister to belittle her identity.

"I went to the princess's Wutong Courtyard."

When she heard Wutongyuan, a hint of jealousy flashed across Tong Zhen's face. Although it disappeared quickly, it was still caught by Chu Jiating. She had a plan in her mind and said, "My sister said she knew nothing, but she only knew how to play the flute, but I didn't listen to her blowing, and I don't know how good it is."

Tong Zhen and Gu Qing'er had a look, and Tong Zhen smiled and said, "This is not accurate, maybe she will have a shocking life."

On this side, Chu Xinyu took Yang Lianxin to Wutongyuan with his maid. The maid who walked towards him was dressed in the same dress, with a generous and decent manner, and there was joy between his eyebrows. When he saw a guest approaching, he hurriedly retreated and gave in to him respectfully.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, he heard a burst of laughter from the front from afar. There was a very familiar voice, crisp and clear, and the laughter was not artificial at all. Chu Xinyu's lips unconsciously curled a smile.

Yang Qianjun is really a wonderful person, with a little wild personality and a bad temper, but she lives a very energetic life. Compared with those girls from aristocratic families who pretend to be gentle and graceful but have a villain behind her, Chu Xinyu is willing to date her.

When she walked into the Ruyi Gate of Wutongyuan, Yang Qianjun was walking out of it. When she saw her, she immediately ran a few steps enthusiastically, pulled her and smiled, "Why did you arrive so late? We are all waiting for you, you are the only one." We are referring to Sun Ruoya and An Qilan.

"Ah, am I late?" She felt it was very early, and now Chen Shi hasn't passed.

"No, they're here too early, let's go!" As he said that, Yang Qianjun pulled her into the house.

In the room, in addition to Princess Zhaoyang, An Qilan and Sun Ruoya, there were seven or eight girls, with cloudy hair, golden steps, thick clothes and elegant makeup. More importantly, they all had good identities, either from the Marquis’ Mansion or the Duke’s Mansion or the Prince’s County Lord.

What surprised Chu Xinyu was that Princess Jing'an was there. She was the eldest daughter of Prince Duan. In Yu'er's memory, Princess Jing'an had a very good relationship with her. Every time she entered the palace, Princess Jing'an would laugh at her and use various languages ​​to mock her. Once, she even fought with her, and later both of them were punished.

"You're late, the banquet is about to begin." Princess Zhaoyang walked over. She was wearing a crimson-red cloud-brown crabapple flower dress, her black hair was combed in the cloud-like bun, and a hairpin of Ruyi's back-patterned jade hairpin on her head. Her apricot face was like a elixir, her pink makeup was like a cloud, and she was beautiful and charming.

Chu Xinyu smiled and said, "Since it's too late, I'll punish myself for three glasses of wine later."

Princess Zhaoyang held Chu Xinyu's hand, revealing the hollow carved phoenix blood jade bracelet, which made her skin look like cream. She smiled and said, "You said, let my brother take out his treasured fruit wine later, you are not allowed to deny it."

"Won't."

"I heard that Zhaoyang invited you to come, but I thought they were joking, but I didn't expect you to come." Princess Jing'an came over. She was wearing a silver-purple gauze-cut embroidered hibiscus palace outfit, gold-spinned jade ears, and qiong-shaped and beautiful appearance. She was very elegant in every move.

Chu Xinyu knew that he would face her sooner or later when he saw her, so he turned around and bowed to her, "Xinyu greeted Princess Jing'an!"

A strange look flashed through Princess Jing'an's eyes. Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for two years, Chu Xinyu's attitude towards him was so calm, as if the two of them had faded away with the passage of time.

"I really didn't expect you to have changed so much. If it weren't for them saying it was you, I would have thought I had mistakenly recognized someone." As he said that, his eyes turned, Princess Jing'an glanced at Yang Lianxin and asked, "Is she your step-sister? She doesn't look like you."

Chu Xinyu curled her lips and smiled, "Of course, she is not like Yang Lianxin, the daughter of my third aunt."

Yang Lianxin didn't know these people, but knew that their identities were noble. She was so happy that she tried to suppress her excitement, but her pair of glittering eyes still revealed everything.

She was anxious to let these people notice her, so she took the brocade box from the maid while Chu Xinyu and Princess Jing'an were talking to Princess Zhaoyang and said, "This gift is my wish. I hope you will like it and wish the princess a happy birthday!"

Princess Zhaoyang was stunned for a moment, but said nothing, and reached out to take the brocade box.

Chu Xinyu didn't want to talk to Princess Jing'an, so she said a few words to her and ended the topic. Just when she was about to talk to Princess Zhaoyang, she saw Yang Lianxin take out a gift and handed it to her.

When he saw the brocade box, Chu Xinyu's eyes were tightened.

Princess Zhaoyang opened it and found a jade fracture fan lying inside. She took it out and opened it. Her eyes immediately flashed with light. She obviously liked it very much. She looked around and slapped it again. The touch felt very good and the wind was strong.

Zhu Bo saw that it was the girl who spent three months to make a jade fracture fan. Lan Yi said that the girl gave it to her cousin. At that time, Lan Yi complained a few times, saying that the cousin only gave the girl a sachet, but the girl's gift was too expensive.
