The Wu family is a well-known family in Kyoto, and they have been in contact with the Lu family before. When Ye Zhen first became Lu Yaoyao, she had already met Mrs. Wu once when she went to Baihua Garden with Mrs. Lu.
At that time, no one else could see that Lu Yaoyao looked like Princess Qin, only Mrs. Wu saw it, but she didn't mention it, Ye Zhen also agreed to go to Wu's house for the banquet because of this.
The next day, Ye Zhen wore an autumn dress of silver thread twisted beads soft silk dyed the color of smoke in the lake, and a silk satin skirt with pink brocade ribbon and lotus root. Putting on a thin makeup, it looks even more beautiful, like a painting.
Mrs. Lu saw her granddaughter so bright and charming, with a satisfied smile in her eyes, "Let's go."
Besides Ye Zhen, Lu Jinger also went to the banquet together.
The Wu family is in Dongcheng, about half an hour away, and there are several carriages parked outside the door. Although the main purpose of the Wu family is to invite Ye Zhen, in order not to be obtrusive, they have invited other people who are close friends with the Wu family. .
The flower viewing banquet was held in the garden of the Wu family, with seats on both sides and various autumn flowers in full bloom in the middle. The banquet has not yet started, and everyone is only focused on talking together.
Someone shouted, "His Royal Highness and Mrs. Lu are here."
All the female relatives became quiet, and looked in the direction of Ye Zhen and the others.
Ye Zhen looked at the familiar faces in the garden, with a proper smile on her lips, and followed Mrs. Lu over there.
Almost everyone's eyes fell on Ye Zhen, some were puzzled, some were shocked, and most of them were amazed.
"Madam Lu, Your Royal Highness." The ladies who were talking together stood up, bowed to Ye Zhen, and turned sideways to let Madam Lu walk among them.
"Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Zhu, Mrs. Tang..." Mrs. Lu nodded with a smile, and greeted those wives who had been friends with each other one by one.
Mrs. Wu said to Mrs. Lu with a smile, "I was talking about when you will come, and Cao Cao will be here."
Mrs. Lu said with a smile, "I kept you waiting for a long time."
Ye Zhen came to Wu's house today to accompany Mrs. Lu, so she just stood aside silently, smiling faintly.
But even if she didn't say anything, just because of her amazing beauty, even if she didn't say anything, it was enough to attract everyone's attention.
"Your Highness, I haven't seen you for a year, and I almost didn't recognize you." Mrs. Wu couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes. She remembered seeing Lu Yaoyao in Baihua Garden a year ago. At that time, she just thought she looked like Ye Zhen. See you today When she arrived, she almost froze.
She doesn't quite remember what Ye Zhen looked like when she grew up, but... considering the exquisite beauty of Princess Qin back then, it is probably Lu Yaoyao's stunning appearance.
Others also said, "Her Royal Highness is indeed the most beautiful woman in the world."
"Yes, yes, the master of the **** family saw him at the city gate, and he told me he didn't believe it when he got home. It's true... I have never seen such a good-looking person in my life."
"..."
There was a slight smile on the corner of Ye Zhen's mouth, listening to their compliments, she didn't say anything.
"You guys, don't frighten our family Yaoyao, this little girl hasn't gone out much before, she's very shy." Mrs. Lu gave Mrs. Wu and the others a look.
"That's right, today is the first time Her Royal Highness has come to a banquet. See, we are all so amazed that we don't know how to be polite." Mrs. Wu smiled and motioned for everyone to sit down and talk.
A girl next to Mrs. Wu who is about the same grade as Ye Zhen stepped forward and smiled at Ye Zhen, "Your Highness, I will accompany you to the garden for a walk, you will definitely feel bored listening to my grandmother and the others chatting here. .”
Mrs. Lu smiled and glanced at Ye Zhen, but did not object.
"Okay." Ye Zhen knew that this girl was Wu Zhenzhu, the granddaughter of Mrs. Wu, she used to be with Xu Huiru often, she looked lively and cute, but she was a little naive.
"Miss Lu Si, are you going with us too?" Wu Zhenzhu looked at Lu Jing'er.
"Okay." Lu Jing'er didn't know that Madam Wu held a flower viewing banquet for Ye Zhen today, she was just happy that Madam Wu finally took her out to socialize, and when she saw Ye Zhen appearing together, there was no smile on her face up.
Sure enough, as long as this so-called Her Royal Highness exists, everyone's attention will not be on her.
Wu Zhenzhu took them to the other side of the garden, "Princess, I heard that you cured many people of the plague in Huaijiang City, is it true?"
Ye Zhen definitely felt much more relaxed facing this naive Wu Zhenzhu than facing those wives, "Well, Doctor Qi is helping them to treat their illnesses."
"You are amazing." Wu Zhenzhu sighed.
Lu Jing'er curled her lips and sneered, "Princess Tangtang, what's so great about doing something that doesn't match her status?"
"It is because she is a princess and has such medical skills." Wu Zhenzhu said.
"You guys talk here, I'll go over there and have a look." Feeling bored, Lu Jing'er turned around and walked towards the rockery.
Seeing Lu Jing'er walking away, Wu Zhenzhu glanced at Ye Zhen and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, actually... Actually, I have one thing to ask of you."
Ye Zhen was so happy that Lu Jing'er didn't follow her, she just felt comfortable, when she heard what Wu Zhenzhu said next to her, she raised her eyebrows and asked lightly, "What's the matter?"
"It's about Concubine Xu Xian... oh, it's about Concubine Xu." Wu Zhenzhu said in a low voice, "Can you please ask the emperor to spare Concubine Xu's eldest brother, he must have done something wrong for the sake of the overall situation at the time, and now he's hurting you." Concubine Xu, they are also pitiful."
Ye Zhen looked at Wu Zhenzhu like a fool, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Miss Wu, who made you say such things in front of me?"
"No..." Wu Zhenzhu hurriedly shook her head, "Really not."
"It seems that the Wu family protected you too well. They didn't teach you how to tell right from wrong, and they didn't teach you what to say in front of anyone. What you said in front of me today must not have been taught by Mrs. Wu. Yours." Ye Zhen said coldly, "Go back and tell the person who asked you to say this, you want to intercede with Xu Ji in front of me, do you want Xu Ji to die faster?"
She is not a person who must report her flaws, but Xu Ji wanted to burn the village regardless of the lives of the people in the two villages. She would not let him go so easily just because of this.
Wu Zhenzhu turned pale with fright at Ye Zhen's words, "Your Highness, how can you be so cold-blooded and heartless."
"I am such a cold-blooded and heartless person. You Wu family are all compassionate. I shouldn't be here." Ye Zhen said with a smile, turned around and left.
