The marriage of Prince Chun Yurong and Crown Princess Situ Ke is still a good story. Although Situ Ke called Queen Situ Min her aunt, she was not related by blood to Chun Yurong because she was the adopted daughter of General Situ Wei. Situ Min was also willing to bring the two together to consolidate the status of the Situ family.
Chunyu Zhuang loved Situ Ke so much that he opened a garden specifically for her in the prince's residence. Its level of luxury was second only to the Royal Garden in the palace. Every spring, the princess would invite some female relatives to the mansion to enjoy the flowers. This time, the flowers were shocking Lan is among them.
The garden was really a riot of purple and red, and the women's families from all the houses were also vying for beauty. Hua Jinglan's black dress was particularly eye-catching among them.
Situ Ke saw her at a glance, pushed past the female relatives, and walked towards her. In fact, this flower viewing party was just an excuse given by the queen to her to see what her future daughter-in-law would be like, so that King Xiaoyao would never forget her.
Hua Jinglan didn't know the deeper meaning, but what she was more interested in now was Chun Yuyan's face after seeing her.
"Very interesting?" Chun Yuyan suddenly came up behind her and said suddenly.
"Of course," Hua Jinglan ignored the envious and jealous eyes around her and smiled, "I heard before that the queen intended to replace me with Hua Wanyu, but now I'm afraid you can't afford Hua Wanyu. I don't know. How should the royal decree be issued..."
"There are priests in the palace. Just ask if you want to know. Who can you deceive with the same tricks as Miao Luoxiang and her daughter?" Chun Yuyan lowered his voice to prevent the women who were deliberately going back and forth from hearing.
"I'm not illiterate," Hua Jinglan said with a smile: "The priest can ask about rain and disaster, but he can't ask about fate. I guess your mother is too anxious to sit still!"
"Even if Hua Wanyu enters the Prince's Mansion, you can't escape Prince Xiaoyao's Mansion!" Chunyu Yanfeng's eyes widened.
"Don't worry, I will repay you well." Hua Jinglan raised her hand and touched her neck with the back of her hand, which was meaningful.
Seeing Situ Ke approaching from a distance, Chunyu Yan turned and left without saying a word.
"Miss Hua," Situ Ke was covered in red peonies and her long orange dress was like the sunset on the horizon. Although it was not gorgeous, it was extremely eye-catching and looked great with her snow-white complexion. "Why don't you talk more with your third brother?" ?”
Hua Jinglan said with a worried look on her face: "Thank you very much, Princess, but the prince seems to have something on his mind."
Chun Yuyan walked away with a sullen look on her face. Situ Ke naturally saw it clearly and hid her thoughts. She smiled lightly and said: "The rumors in the market are not credible. Why don't Miss Hua go and have tea with me?"
Hua Jinglan did not refuse and went to the side pavilion with Situ Ke.
