Long Heng was invited by the old lady to take a look at the gift from his fiancée. He is not someone who loves to paint, so he didn't think much of it after taking a look.
He didn't know what kind of person his fiancee was, but looking at the painting, he thought she was a talented woman.
Song Jiaoyue said hello from the side, and then stepped aside with a smile. Although the painting is good, it is far less shocking than the one carved just now.
Hey, this seems to be different from the plot.
It seems that because of his arrival, a lot of things have changed, but I don't know if the changes are good or bad.
But she didn't know that after presenting that gift, she was noticed by the old lady.
If she is a mess with a little bit of cleverness, I'm afraid it will suppress her spirit.
But I didn't expect her to be very obedient, even if she didn't want to rush to speak in front of the ladies, even if the prince appeared, she didn't squeeze in to show her hospitality, but she was honest.
The old lady also felt that she was a little tired to manage the backyard recently, but she wanted to support her, so she could help her daughter-in-law after she entered the door in the future. However, if it is a troublemaker, how can this backyard stop at that time.
Among the four concubines, she looks the most pleasing to the eye today.
Long Heng followed his mother's gaze and glanced at the woman who just made a show of the gift, uh...
She sat so far away, still in the shadow of the pillar, drinking tea and watching everyone's behavior, but she had no intention of participating in them.
The important thing is that those eyes are really quiet as water, without any desire. He couldn't help but be surprised that such a woman with no desires or desires was rare.
After all the ladies and ladies gave their gifts, they were about to start the banquet. When it came to the banquet of Bai Xiangxiu, it was even more depressing.
She grew up beside her grandmother and grandfather. The two old people believed in Buddhism, so they had to eat vegetarian food on the 15th day of the first day.
She's used to it for so many years, so she hasn't changed that since she came here. And today, it is exactly fifteen.
Xiao Shi knew her habit for the past two months, so she could not help asking in a low voice, "Mrs. Xiu, do you want me to mention it to the people below?"
Bai Xiangxiu shook her head and said, "Don't go, it's not good to be eye-catching at this time. I'll just pick up the vegetarian food and eat it."
This dynasty invited people to use dishes instead of huge tables, but small square tables.
There is a small table in front of each guest, which can be as big as four or five dishes at a time. When the dish arrives, I pick up the one I like and put it in the small stack, and then I withdraw it when the next dish arrives.
This is the so-called running water surface, which is very wasteful but pays great attention to the hygiene of meals.
These concubines are different from the distinguished guests, they are two people sitting at a table.
Bai Xiangxiu was sitting on the same table with Qiuyuan's master. She was a gorgeous beauty, but her appearance was far worse than her face. Therefore, her attitude towards her is not friendly.
The dishes came up soon, and she didn't use the small Shibu dishes, she picked up some small cabbage, tofu and the like on the plate.
After a while, Long Heng, who had left, came back again. He was going to accompany the old lady for dinner. After all, he was her only son.
The old lady was naturally happy. The mother and son sat at the same table and didn't talk much.
However, Long Heng glanced at the woman in Winter Garden intentionally or unintentionally, and found that she had been pushed to the side of the table, and most of her body was blocked by the woman at the same table, it seemed she was being pushed out.
But this dish was only served, but she had already wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and seemed to be full. Looking at her plate, there is still half of the dish left, is this girl eating cat food
The banquet was still in progress, but Bai Xiangxiu was so squeezed that she couldn't sit down.
She felt that her gift was also given, and she was crowded by the other three. It seemed that there was no need to sit down, so she asked a nanny to ask the old lady, only to say that she felt uncomfortable and wanted to go back.
How could the old lady not see that she was being pushed out, she nodded and let her go down.
And the other three were also told to go down, scurrying among those noble ladies regardless of their identities, and they really embarrassed the palace. After this time, it will be strictly disciplined.
Let's say that Bai Xiangxiu and Xiao Shi, who went down at the right time, were not walking fast, but as they were walking, they saw a suspicious servant in front of them. He was a very small man, huddled in the woods and seemed to be looking at something.
On the other side, a group of people was walking slowly, and it was Long Heng who took the lead. Unexpectedly, he took people around in the backyard as soon as he came out of the old lady's place. It was very leisurely.
However, those were all distinguished guests, besides Song Jiaoyue, there were several young and handsome sons.
Although Long Heng is cold, he has a wide range of friends, and he can be regarded as a well-rounded person in the court.
She also didn't want to be seen by them, so she moved to the suspicious servant's side, because there was a rockery over there to block the eyes of those people.
And the servant turned around when he heard someone behind him, and then saw a beauty who was as beautiful as a fairy approaching him.
After he finished speaking, he and the beauties opposite him were stunned.
One of the surprises is how this one was born, so beautiful. Not only beautiful and elegant, but not exaggerated, people can't help but feel good after seeing it.
Another surprise was that the servant's voice was clearly a woman's. Looking at his appearance, and looking at that throat Bai Xiangxiu, he immediately guessed that he was really her.
"You are..." Before anyone finished speaking, their mouth was covered by their master. And the servant also put his hand to his mouth and said, "Be quieter."
After speaking, he smiled and said, "I... a servant... I took things for the ladies and threw them away, for fear of being known."
This was clearly an excuse, Bai Xiangxiu looked at this suspicious girl. She is only about fourteen or fifteen years old, and she is delicate and cute, especially the pair of water-cut pupils are especially beautiful, as if they will fall off with water at any time.
Such a cute, attractive woman, coupled with her daring behavior of peeping, is not something that any lady would dare to do.
"What are you peeking at, I won't tell others." Bai Xiangxiu felt curious, and had an idea in her heart that needed confirmation.
Xiaoshi saw her master lowered her head and squatted down, wondering why her master asked that. No, she was clearly affirmative.
"I... just heard that King Li is very scary, and wanted to see if he was as scary as the devil in the rumors." I don't know why, being stared at by such a beauty, she told the truth.
Bai Xiangxiu's mouth twitched, she had already begun to affirm. Only one person in the ministry can do such a look and such behavior, and that is the legendary heroine.
Unexpectedly, she came to observe her fiancé in advance, but this part was not written in the book. She just said that she herself had confirmed that the male protagonist was indeed very violent towards women, and then she packed up and escaped.
Could it be that she peeked at the proof.
But although King Li is a powerful character who can slaughter people at will, he is still ok with women, at least he has never heard of him hitting any woman at will.
