Hua Yan followed Mrs. Zhao Zaifu into the pavilion, and Mrs. Zhao Zaifu smiled and pulled her to introduce the people in the pavilion.
Needless to say, Princess Dachang, Concubine Anyang, Mrs. Jing Guogong, Mrs. Wuwei Hou Ji, there are more than a dozen other famous wives and a group of young ladies.
The Eldest Princess likes to eat fast and chant Buddha, she hasn't stepped out of the house for half a year, and today she came here specially for Huayan. Although she was not born to the Empress Dowager, she has been taken care of by the Empress Dowager since she was a child. Thinking of the Empress Dowager's kindness, she knew that she didn't like Huayan. She also really felt that this woman was not fit to be a princess, and the day before yesterday she heard about the fierce marriage lottery and the fact that the queen mother went to the East Palace to find Huayan and was scared to faint by her, so she couldn't sit still today and came to Zhao Zaifu's mansion.
She knew that Yunchi would definitely bring Huayan, so she came early and waited to see her.
She has made up her mind to take a good look at this beauty in Lin'an. What kind of virtues does she have? How can she let the prince, the best son in the royal family, not marry unless she is the empress dowager? Many people in the circle also complained in private, but he did not change his mind and decided on her.
When I saw her today, she was really surprised. Not to mention her appearance and posture, just from her words to Mrs. Wuwei Hou Ji and her praise of Mrs. Zhao's mother and daughter, Mrs. Zhao quickly made Mrs. Zhao not only because of her appearance In terms of face, the prince is really a powerful person as a guest.
She is only twenty-eight years old, and she speaks more smoothly than people like them who have lived half their lives. It really made her feel that it was no wonder that the empress dowager and the emperor didn't express any objection after meeting her.
She took Huayan's hand in an amiable manner, and said with a smile, "You really are a water spirit, no wonder His Royal Highness has identified you with all his heart, I think you are very good." After saying that, she wanted to take off her wrist The bracelet was given to Huayan, but she found that the bracelet on Huayan's wrist was much better than hers. Yan.
Huayan saw her subtle movements, plans and expressions, smiled calmly on her face, and quickly shied away, "Princess, you are welcome, you should save your gift until I can really marry His Highness the Crown Prince. Everything in this world is uncertain, maybe my Highness and I will not make it to that day, wouldn't it be that your gift was given away for nothing?"
The eldest princess was taken aback.
Huayan put the jade ring back on her hand, and said with a smile, "The fate between me and Your Highness depends on God's will."
The eldest princess didn't expect her to be like this, and she didn't know how to answer the words.
Everyone in the pavilion was also silent, thinking how calm and confident she looked when she moved out of Nanny Fang when she dealt with Mrs. Hou Ji of Wuwei just now. He doesn't even care about the fierce marriage, and he just wants to marry him, so what changes will happen in the future
Those of them who live in the circle of nobles in the capital are the closest to the center of power, and they naturally know the kind of person Prince Yunchi is the best.
Ever since I was a child, I have never heard that the prince wants to do something and can't do it. As long as he believes in it with all his heart, he will never change it. The emperor and the queen mother can do nothing, and the courtiers and officials can do nothing, let alone others.
Mrs. Zhao Zaifu also had a heartbeat, and she came out with a smile to smooth things over, "Crown Princess, what are you talking about so that none of us here can understand."
Huayan smiled lightly, and took a step away from the eldest princess. Just as she was about to speak, someone rushed into the pavilion with a gust of wind. She glanced at the person coming, and swallowed the words again.
The Seventh Princess seemed to be in a hurry, out of breath. After entering the pavilion, she swept around the crowd, greeted the eldest princess hastily, and then stared at Huayan, "You told me that day that you admired Lu Zhiling, but Truth"
Everyone had different expressions in an instant. They all remembered that they found out this news from the people who followed the Queen Mother to the East Palace two days ago, and they all looked at Huayan for a while.
Especially the master's mother, Mrs. Jing Guogong, who is here today, her eyes widened suddenly.
Duke Jing wanted to break Lu Zhiling's leg that day, but later Lu Zhiling ran away and hasn't returned home yet. As a mother, she never cared about their father and son's affairs, because she couldn't manage it at all, and Duke Jing has a tough temper Anxious, Lu Zhiling's temper is slippery and smooth, she can't control any of them, and she has come like this for so many years.
But this matter is different from the trivial matters in the past. It is a matter of competing with His Highness the Crown Prince for a woman.
She didn't expect seven
At this time, the princess rushed in and stabbed her in front of so many people. She was anxious and helpless. She just looked at Huayan and listened to what she had to say, so she really wanted to deal with it.
Huayan met Shang Qigong's eyes very firmly, as if she didn't want an answer and vowed not to give up.
Mother Fang saw that something was wrong, so she took a step forward and said to Princess Seven, "Princess Seven, it's just nonsense, you"
The Seventh Princess stopped immediately, and said, "Mama, you were there that day and you heard it too. How can you say that I am talking nonsense? I must ask her clearly today, and you are not allowed to stop me."
Nanny Fang's head suddenly throbbed, she was a slave after all, seeing the Seventh Princess like this, naturally it is not good to meddle in the affairs of the masters. He only looked at Huayan, expecting her to deny it. Otherwise, this is a flat-out slap in the face of His Highness the Crown Prince.
But she also felt that the Crown Princess didn't care about His Royal Highness's face, she didn't like the East Palace at all, and didn't want to be a Crown Princess.
As expected, Huayan doesn't care about Yun Chi's face, what she wants is an opportunity, although it is not an opportunity that she personally created, but the opportunity has come, she can't push it away, she is so stupid that she is now At a time like this, she expressed her determination to Yun Chi to say that she didn't like Lu Zhiling and would not marry unless she liked him.
So, she smiled at the Seventh Princess, and said softly and calmly, "What I said to you that day was all from the bottom of my heart. I jumped from a high pavilion and walked through the gate of hell. There is nothing more clear than this." thing."
The Seventh Princess' face turned pale, her body trembled, she bit her lips tightly, and pointed at her, "How dare you admit it in front of so many people, where did you put my prince and brother?"
Hua Yanqing smiled lightly, her smile was as cool as the autumn wind, "The crown prince chose me, not what I wanted, and he wanted to marry him wholeheartedly, so it was difficult for me, because His Royal Highness is noble, standing at the pinnacle of imperial power, under the whole world, I want to marry you." I choose whoever I choose, there is no room for people’s disapproval, and I can’t say no, even if the royal painter goes to my mansion, I don’t want to cooperate, so I use the Queen Mother’s order to suppress people.”
At this moment, everyone suddenly remembered that the roster, Lin'an Huayan did not want to hide her face with a book.
Huayan continued, "Imperial power and heavenly prestige are the avenues of the world and cannot be desecrated. I understand the truth, but I can't accept it in my heart. I, Huayan, have been like to roll around in the mundane world of clay figurines since I was a child. From top to bottom, I think that everything is good, such a character as a prince is standing high above the clouds, and I am really wronged to be worthy of me as a princess. I don't want to shoulder the responsibilities that I can't bear, and there is nothing wrong with it."
The Seventh Princess' fingers trembled, "But the prince, brother, don't feel wronged."
Huayan smiled again, "He is him, I am me, he is the bright moon, and I like to shine on the dust, but I yearn for the breeze, so I can walk with the wind." The local Mrs. Jing Guo smiled softly, and her voice was as pleasant as spring water hitting jade, "Lu Shizi is a character like a breeze, romantic and interesting, and I admire him very much. In my opinion, I just recited an imposition. It's just a marriage gift from Yizhi, and it's not considered a real royal. Even if you say it openly in front of everyone today, there is nothing to be ashamed of. Madam, don't panic. I like Lu Zhiling, and it has nothing to do with him, nor Jing Guogong. The government's business is my own business."
Mrs. Jing Guo was completely horrified, she opened her mouth, looked at Hua Yan, not knowing what to say.
Everyone, including Zhao Zaifu and Zhao Qingxi, was also shocked. Qiqi thought, there is no woman in the world who is so bold, dare to say such things openly, admit such things, she is really not in the slightest scruples.
Seventh Princess couldn't bear it the most and wanted to cry, but the tears had disappeared in the past two days. She was speechless by Huayan's words. She thought she was eloquent, but now in front of Huayan, she suddenly became inarticulate stand up.
At this time, Madam Hou Ji of Wuwei seemed to have finally found a chance, thinking of Lin'an Huayan, since you have removed the protective umbrella of His Royal Highness, don't blame me for kicking you into the mud pit.
So, she sneered again and said, "The princess is really an eye-opener for me. Back then, when the prince was choosing a concubine, it was rumored that Lin'an Huayan was having an affair with Prince Li of Anyang's palace. Said that he adores Lu Shizi of Duke Jing's mansion. It's hard not to make me suspect that the princess concubine is going around, looking at Qin Muchu, eating from the bowl, looking at the pot, I have never seen a woman like you."
