Naturally, these words were too clever to be conveyed to Mrs. Xu as they were.
However, it was related to Shen Zhonglei's future. Even if Xu wanted to make Shen Tianshu look embarrassed, he didn't go so far as to disregard the overall situation.
Although she was a little surprised that Shen Tianshu got everything done, she still had a lot of things to deal with. She did feel a little regretful, but she didn't think too much about it for a while.
The next day, Mingshui Garden.
The Mingshui Garden in March is completely different from what it was a year ago. Peach blossoms, crabapples, cherry blossoms, camellias, roses, peonies, gardenias... all kinds of spring flowers are vying for beauty, and the beauty is stunning everywhere.
Beside the flowers and under the trees | The girls in spring clothes are even more beautiful than the flowers, becoming an eye-catching scenery in the garden.
Li Zi'an and Fan Yuru entered the garden early and were on the highest tower in the garden, overlooking the scenery and guests in the garden.
There are young girls everywhere in the garden, all of them dressed up carefully.
Fan Yuru couldn't help but have a headache at the sight of it, and sighed: "Sir, how much can't you think about? You usually hate banquets like this the most. What's going on today?"
Li Zixin said, if these people are not allowed in, how can Shen Zhonglei and his female family members be allowed to participate?
But he said: "It's March in spring, and the beauties and beautiful scenery are so eye-catching! You are almost at the age of marriage. Today is a good time to take a closer look. If there is anyone you like, I will help you come to propose marriage."
Fan Yuru resisted the urge to roll her eyes. Just as she was about to leave the railing and go back inside to drink tea, she happened to see Shen Tianshu and Shen Yunhui coming into view, followed by an unknown girl.
Shen Tianshu usually dresses very elegantly. His clothes are usually either moon white or bamboo green. Today, maybe because of the banquet, he rarely wears a long skirt with red flowers and a light white tulle with beaded flowers on it. She had a lily-parted bun, but it was simply decorated with two hairpins, and then a Xifu Begonia in full bloom was slanted into the hairpin.
As soon as she appeared, she immediately overshadowed the flowers and girls in the entire garden.
Fan Yuru turned around and was about to say that she saw Shen Tianshu when she saw Li Zian staring in that direction with a thoughtful look on his face.
Li Zian looked at it for a long time, then came back to his senses and said: "The people below are almost here, we can't stay here forever, it's time to go down."
Logically speaking, they can stay here until the banquet starts, and Shen Zhonglei will naturally send someone to invite them.
But Fan Yuru didn't bother to remind him. Even if he said it anyway, Li Zian would definitely be able to find other excuses.
After the two went downstairs with their guards, they attracted countless eyes along the way, and their ears were filled with greetings and greetings.
Li Zian was very familiar with this situation since he was a child, and he strode forward as if he didn't see it.
Fan Yuru followed closely behind, and his elegant appearance in green clothes also attracted the attention of many girls.
After Mrs. Zhu saluted and said hello to everyone, she didn't know where Li Zian was going, so she pulled her daughter Zhu Yueying and followed quickly.
While following her, she whispered: "Have you remembered everything I told you at home? When you see the opportunity, go up and talk to the prince and try to make him have an impression of you, you know? Look at so many people in the garden. Everyone is here for the prince, and I don’t have time for you to be shy now.”
The moment Zhu Yueying saw Li Zian, her face turned as red as a begonia flower on the tree.
Such a person who is as banished to an immortal and has a high position of power actually exists not only in the story books, but also in reality.
The resistance she felt towards her parents' arrangement in her heart turned into a pool of spring water like ice and snow melting away.
There was no need for Madam Zhu to hold her back, and her steps were actually a little faster.
Li Zian had seen everything clearly from the tower just now, and now he led people straight to the small courtyard where Shen Tianshu was.
Although this place is not remote, there are only some roses planted in the courtyard, which is not as attractive as the camellias or gardenias, so it is relatively clean.
Shen Tianshu specially found this quiet place to talk to Guo Xintong. Unexpectedly, not long after the two of them sat down on the stone bench, Li Zian brought someone to disturb them.
"My maid has met the prince." Shen Tianshu stood up, Shi Shiran saluted, and glanced at the group of people following Li Zian.
Shen Yunhui and Guo Xintong also stood up and saluted.
After Shen Yunhui saluted, she hid behind Shen Tianshu.
Guo Xintong, who was usually carefree and often dressed as a boy, suddenly faced a person of Wang Shizi's status, and was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to look.
The girls following Li Zian were also a little put off by Shen Tianshu's beauty.
"Miss Shen, we meet again. Ever since you left the palace and returned home, grandma has been talking about you!"
"Thanks to the concubine's misplaced love, after I returned home, I still did not forget to continue copying scriptures to worship the Buddha. I also specially copied a copy of the Medicine King Sutra for my concubine. I have brought it with me this time. I have to bother the prince to deliver it on my behalf."
"I won't hand it over for you." Li Zian's words were so frightening that Mingyu almost fell to the ground with her knees weak.
She looked at Shen Tianshu's back worriedly, thinking that the prince's temper was too great. He was the one who took the initiative to talk to her, so why didn't he even want to hand over a book?
In front of so many people, isn't this deliberately trying to bring trouble to his own girl?
Everyone who followed Li Zian had similar thoughts to Mingyu.
Just now I was feeling ashamed of Shen Tianshu's beauty, but now I couldn't help but feel a little hope rising in my heart.
It seems that this Miss Shen is not very popular with the prince!
Shen Tianshu was thinking about how to reply, but he heard Li Zian say again: "It would be more sincere for you to hand this book of Medicine King to your grandmother yourself."
personally?
Shen Tianshu looked up at Li Zian in confusion. Could it be that Concubine Fengrong has also arrived in Yongzhou Mansion?
"Because my grandmother has been talking about Miss Shen, so when I went out this time, in addition to official business, I also shouldered another task, which was to invite Miss Shen to stay in the palace for a while on behalf of my grandmother." Li Zian said, "It's the end of spring and the beginning of summer. , there are flowers everywhere in the palace, and it is no longer the desolate scene when the girl went there last time. The girl can just enjoy it when she goes there.
"At that time, the girl can naturally hand over this volume of Medicine King's Scripture to her grandmother in person. Grandma will definitely be very happy."
Li Zian said these words without any intention of betraying anyone. Naturally, everyone following behind him heard it clearly, causing an uproar.
"This..." Shen Tianshu frowned and looked at Li Zian, wondering what kind of medicine this man was selling in his gourd?
He was the one who spoke coldly to him before, but now he is the one who is rushing to make a face for himself.
And if he said such words in public, didn't he really know how much speculation and misunderstanding it would cause?
Madam Zhu was already so angry that she tightened the silk handkerchief in her hand.
No wonder Mrs. Xu sold the favor to herself so happily that day. It turned out that the prince had already fallen in love with the eldest daughter of the Shen family!
