Xiao Yaxue nodded in agreement: "We are here today just to eat and drink. We will play with ourselves first. When the meeting starts, we will go over to eat. When we are full, we will pat our butts and leave."
Yang Ruoqing laughed: "Sister-in-law, you are different from me. I am from Changping Village, a real village girl."
"You are an aristocrat from Zhongjing and grew up in a circle of powerful people. Why are you tired of these gatherings?" she asked.
Xiao Yaxue curled her lips.
"I can't choose my origin. God knows how tired I am of these powerful people admiring flowers and the moon."
"It's a mess. In the final analysis, it's all about cliques."
"The men are too embarrassed to openly form cliques, so they send women to engage in diplomacy."
"I can't stand it when they say one sentence and it has hundreds of meanings."
"There are pitfalls everywhere. I have no interest in playing and I can't afford it. I still envy you, a village girl, who lives a simple and comfortable life!" Xiao Yaxue said.
Yang Ruoqing smiled again and raised her hand to wrap her arms around Xiao Yaxue's shoulders.
"The city is full of routines. We have to go back to the countryside. Let's go. Let's go to the garden and play on our own!"
…
The two of them were enjoying themselves and enjoying themselves in Prince Yun's Mansion.
Finally, feeling a little tired, the two of them sat down next to a big rock by a nearby lake and watched the colorful goldfish swimming around in the lake.
"Have we almost completed a lap of this yard?" Xiao Yaxue looked around and asked.
Yang Ruoqing nodded: "It's almost done, the only thing missing is the flower hall over there."
Xiao Yaxue said: "I feel that this garden is not very luxurious, and the area is not too big. It may be smaller than your and Feng Tang's yard."
Yang Ruoqing agreed, "King Yun is a wise man, but he is pro-people. The palace he lives in must be consistent with the image he has established to the outside world!"
Xiao Yaxue said again: "Qing'er, have you noticed that there is no Princess Yun in Prince Yun's Mansion, and I haven't seen any other concubines coming."
Yang Ruoqing curled her lips: "Prince Yun is a golden single aristocrat. I heard that he is very clean in his private life. There is not even a maid in the palace to serve him."
Xiao Yaxue became interested when she heard this.
He leaned a little closer and said against Yang Ruoqing's ear: "So, Qi Xingyun is still just a little chick?"
Yang Ruoqing gave Xiao Yaxue a contemptuous look: "Can you not be so dirty?"
Xiao Yaxue smiled: "Oh, we sisters whisper and are not outsiders, so what's there to be ashamed of!"
Yang Ruoqing said: "I don't pay attention to this issue, and I won't discuss it."
Xiao Yaxue was still talking to herself: "Qi Xingyun is already twenty-two or three, right? He's almost the same as Risong!"
"That day, Song Sanye was so anxious that he screamed when he didn't have a woman. Can Qi Xingyun hold it in?"
Xiao Yaxue was still talking to herself.
Yang Ruoqing covered her mouth and smiled: "That Risong is a breeding horse, and it is not included in the scope of normal people's discussion..."
Xiao Yaxue then thought about it: "This Prince Yun, judging from his good figure and handsome appearance, he doesn't seem to be sick."
"A normal man should have needs."
"Either this self-righteousness is fake at all, or he is a crook and likes men!"
"No, there is a third possibility..."
After hearing Xiao Yaxue's reasoning, Yang Ruoqing's head was full of black lines.
"Which third type?" She couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Yaxue said: "King Lu!"
"Pfft!"
Yang Ruoqing finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Sister-in-law, how did you know that he was the King of Lu?"
Xiao Yaxue said: "He made a gesture of raising his hand earlier to invite us in."
"I saw a layer of calluses on his fingertips. Maybe he rubbed them too much and the calluses were formed... Hey, Qing'er, why are you up? Sit down for a while. I haven't said anything yet. It’s over…”
Xiao Yaxue shouted towards Yang Ruoqing.
However, Yang Ruoqing stood up and walked forward, while replying: "Sister-in-law, let's go to the flower hall. These speculations of yours are too exciting. I can't bear it anymore, sister."
"Hey, want to go to the flower hall? That's fine. I happen to be hungry. Wait for me!"
Xiao Yaxue also quickly got up and ran after him.
On the way, I met the servant from before.
"You two girls, let the younger one find it easier. The banquet is about to start in the flower hall. The prince has sent the younger one to invite the two girls to come and sit down."
"The banquet is ready, hurry up!"
Yang Ruoqing said, under the guidance of the servant, the two girls passed through the Chaoshou Veranda, then passed the rockery wooden bridge, and finally arrived at the back garden of Prince Yun's Mansion.
In the back garden, there are many kinds of flowers planted, not only crabapples, but also peach blossoms and pear blossoms.
It's like a sea of flowers. Under the flower trees, there are groups of three and five.
Damn, they are all big girls and young wives.
Yingying Yanyan, the fragrance of the powder is mixed together, almost covering up the fragrant floral fragrance.
"They are all flower girls." Xiao Yaxue said to Yang Ruoqing in a low voice.
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Fortunately I didn't bring Tang Yazi with me."
Xiao Yaxue smiled.
"Even if you brought him, he wouldn't dare to take another look, otherwise he would have to kneel on the washboard when he goes back." Xiao Yaxue said.
Yang Ruoqing gently pinched Xiao Yaxue and said, "Don't make fun of my man, otherwise my sisters won't have to do it."
Xiao Yaxue quickly admitted her mistake: "Okay, okay, I won't tell you if I don't tell you."
"Miss Yang, Miss Xiao, are you here?"
Behind a crabapple tree, a handsome man in black clothes came over.
"Prince Yun."
Yang Ruoqing said hello to the man in front of her.
Qi Xingyun said with a smile: "You are seated, please come this way."
"Well, okay!"
Following Qi Xingyun, he passed through the sea of flowers in front and came to the depths of the garden.
Here, stands an octagonal pavilion.
Inside the pavilion, there are two low tables.
In the open space outside the pavilion, there are also several low tables placed in a circle, surrounding the pavilion in the middle, like stars over the moon.
The two girls were hungry after walking in the garden all day.
As soon as she arrived here, Xiao Yaxue was caught by the delicious food on the short table.
As for Yang Ruoqing, her eyes were also attracted, but not because of the delicious food.
"Prince Yun, who is that old woman...?"
Yang Ruoqing looked towards the old woman who was slowly walking towards the pavilion supported by the ladies and ladies.
Qi Xingyun also glanced over there and said, "That's the old princess of Prince Xiang's Mansion."
He saw Yang Ruoqing's eyes wandering around the girl next to the old princess.
Qi Xingyun added: "The one wearing a white dress next to her is Princess Xuewu."
Princess Xuewu?
Yang Ruoqing secretly raised her eyebrows.
As he looked at the girl in white who was slowly approaching, he felt a huge wave in his heart.
This woman has a graceful figure and a delicate and lovely face.
Although her facial features cannot be said to be stunning, her frail strength, which I find pitiful, can inspire a protective desire in others.
The white dress is like a white lotus flower, blowing across the green grass.
Her hair hangs down like a waterfall on her waist, and the white tassel on her forehead echoes the blooming snowdrop on her shoulder.
She appeared more and more like a goddess descending to earth, and like the snow lotus, so beautiful that there was no trace of dust on it.
