Immediately, everyone began to speculate that Lin Jingxian might have wanted to be in the limelight and win the first place, so as to attract the attention of the princes and make them a stepping stone.
Besides, among the many ladies from aristocratic families, how many of them really spend all their time reciting poems and composing poems? How many of them are noble ladies like Lin Jingxian? What they are best at is nothing more than embroidery and singing and dancing. , can read and digit, learn the three cardinal principles and five constant principles well, memorize the female virtues, etc. The purpose is to find a good husband and raise children in the future. The men here are all amazing talents, but they don't know how to embroider, sing and dance.
The eldest princess also felt that this proposal was not good, and that having fun alone is not as good as having fun among everyone. Today, there are many young ladies and wives in aristocratic families, and even her own daughter does not have that kind of talent. She smiled and said: "Miss Fan, do you have any good suggestions? "
Lin Jingxian sat down angrily and glanced in the direction of Nangong Yuanyi. When she saw that he was not looking at her, she suddenly felt less panicked.
But his eyes looked at An Xiyue, and Lin Jingxian suddenly felt a surge of anger rising up from the center of her eyebrows, straight to the patio, and her face turned red.
An Xilin had already moved her seat next to Lin Jingxian in the middle of the banquet, and called her cousin in an obedient and sensible manner. In front of everyone, Lin Jingxian did not slap her in the face in public, and pulled her cousin to sit down in a pleasant manner.
An Xilin deserves to have the blood of the Lin family. Both cousins are beautiful. In terms of temperament, An Xilin is even more gentle and considerate than Lin Jingxian. Lin Jingxian has been a pampered legitimate lady since she was a child. She is more arrogant than An Xilin, but An Xilin is He is a concubine, he knows how to observe words and emotions, and he is also smart.
At this time, when she saw her cousin was angry, she knew the reason. She gently smiled brightly and said softly: "My eldest sister has become very handsome recently. Even my grandmother likes her very much. She was dating the fourth prince that day. She even outperformed the Fourth Prince in competitions, and was always praised by Master Wen, saying she was a talented woman."
"Is there such a thing?" Lin Jingxian suddenly turned her eyes, her beautiful eyes full of disbelief, staring at An Xilin coldly. Wasn't An Xilin's sister-in-law very cowardly in the past? Do you listen to Anxilin on everything? She knew An Xiyue's virtues very well. She had no idea about it and said with disdain: "It's just that she can memorize a few poems and try to get through." She also dreamed of becoming a concubine.
An Xilin suddenly fluttered her eyelashes weakly, as if she was aggrieved, and said in a gentle and slightly sad voice: "I was framed by her a few days ago, and my reputation was ruined by her. Now I have no face to see anyone. A concubine's marriage is in the hands of the mistress, so I don't dare to offend her."
An Xilin knew that her cousin liked Nangong Yuanyi, but at this time, she acted as if she didn't know at all. If she let her cousin know that she had figured out her cousin's thoughts, her cousin would definitely not give her good fruit to eat. She would pretend to be stupid like this. She felt that she was too smart to be able to deal with An Xiyue, sitting on a mountain and watching the fight between tigers and tigers.
Lin Jingxian didn't pay attention to An Xilin at all. If her elder brother hadn't said that An Xilin was pretty and might be useful to them in the future, she glared at An Xilin arrogantly and said coldly: "Why, you can't fight her either. "
Lin Jingxian is the concubine of the Gaomen Mansion. Sitting next to her will more or less make people know her better, such as the noble fourth prince. The fourth prince's eyes will glance here from time to time. An Xilin frowns a pair of willow-leaf eyebrows. , his eyes were watery, as if he was aggrieved, and he fell silent.
Lin Jingxian looked at her, gave her a cold look, and cursed secretly: "What a waste."
At the same time, I saw a woman in white clothes with shuiyun sleeves standing up. She was elegant and dignified, with a good face, her eyes were so clear that there was no trace of color, and she looked gentle and gentle. She said respectfully: "I have a The idea is that I am afraid of telling jokes that will offend all the ladies and gentlemen."
An Xiyue followed the voice and looked over. Fan Yi was in great shape. She looked like Xiaojiabiyu. She was dressed like a fairy in a snow-white dress. Her skin was like creamy jade. She looked very well-behaved. An Xiyue thought to herself: "It turns out that this is the eldest princess's beloved wife for Shangguan Wei."
The eldest princess smiled from ear to ear, her eyes were on Fan Yi, and she said slowly: "Miss Fan, it doesn't matter if you say it, and it doesn't matter if you say it wrong. It's just for fun."
Fan Yi's complexion was slightly reddish. She took a deep breath and said slowly: "The Northern Dynasties has always had the custom of guessing lantern riddles. During the Lantern Festival, people from the inner courtyard of the palace to the common people and even Huangkou Even a child can guess one or two pairs at random. Although there is still some time before the Lantern Festival, I thought, since there are many ladies, ladies and gentlemen gathered today, why not let us play a game of guessing lantern riddles together."
As soon as Fan Yigang finished speaking, everyone became interested and clapped their hands in agreement. Everyone could guess the lantern riddles, so that everyone could have the opportunity to perform in front of the eldest princess, and it was interesting.
Everyone raised their hands in favor of the game of guessing lantern riddles, and suddenly the whole hall became enthusiastic.
When the eldest princess saw Fan Yi speaking slowly and methodically, she even praised Fan Yi secretly. She was worthy of being the daughter of the royal censor, and she was really magnanimous.
Suddenly, another lady raised her eyebrows and asked: "This is a very good idea, but during the Lantern Festival there are hundreds of lantern riddles for us to enjoy. Now we have no lantern riddles to guess?"
Suddenly, the hall seemed to be infected. Everyone was talking to each other, and the ladies and gentlemen came to discuss how to play the game with great interest.
Lin Jingxian saw that no one spoke when she raised her opinion just now, but now it was a noisy scene. She immediately felt embarrassed and hated Fan Yi fiercely in her heart.
However, she wanted to guess lantern riddles. Where could there be so many lantern riddles at this moment? Lin Jingxian sneered. What could be in her mind that she could come up with such a poor idea? Nothing new at all.
Several young ladies from aristocratic families who were sitting next to Lin Jingxian with flattering expressions on their faces saw that Miss Lin was not happy. In order to make Lin Jingxian happy, they all raised various difficult questions to make things difficult for her: "How can we guess if there are no lantern riddles?"
"Some people come up with random ideas just to show off in front of the eldest princess." One of the ladies in pink said with disdain.
I saw Fan Yi like a white lotus in full bloom, with a slight smile hanging on the corner of her lips. She was not angry, and suddenly she had no choice. She suddenly said slowly towards An Xiyue: "The article I saw Miss An reading just now, I must know that Miss An is also a woman with outstanding charm, but I couldn’t think of a perfect solution for the idea I came up with. Does Miss An have any magic tricks?"
An Xiyue was playing with Shangguan Yao and was suddenly nominated. She didn't react for a while. Seeing Fan Yi cast a friendly look at her, her eyes were so clear that there was no impurity and no malice. An Xiyue was speechless.
In an instant, everyone cast questioning looks at An Xiyue. An Xiyue was pushed to the forefront. Even though her mind was not on the banquet, it was difficult to refute Fan Yi's face at this time, and a clear smile appeared on the corners of her lips. , nodded lightly to Fan Yi, and said slowly: "The question is in your hearts."
