[Red Mansion] Princess Ji

The spring banquet is always arranged by the people around the empress in the palace, the scene is not small, and the people who come are all officials and family members, and there are many princes and young masters, so you can hear acquaintances chatting together when you arrive at the banquet.

The Lin family didn't have any relatives in the capital, and Lin Wenjin had just entered the Imperial Academy not long ago, and his qualifications were relatively low. However, his talent and learning earned him appreciation from many people, and he became close to the Lin family as well.

"Mother, Sister Lin is there, I'll go and have a look."

"What did your brother tell you at home?"

"Don't be too ostentatious, so as not to cause trouble for Sister Lin." Ji Yunan curled her lips. She didn't know what Ji Yuanlan was going crazy, and suddenly confessed this matter, but she couldn't sit still if she didn't go. She was willing to talk about other people. It's better to be comfortable and at ease with Daiyu.

Talking about this kind of thing really depends on fate.

Princess Yongkang couldn't help but smiled, and waved her hand, "He was worried that others would gossip, but I don't think that girl is a soft bone, you just go, just be careful what you say, don't let people pinch your fault."

"It's better for mother!"

"You are so savage because your mother and I dote on you." King Yongkang originally came and left, but after hearing this, he wanted to see what the girl from the Lin family looked like.

Ji Yuanlan has spent a lot of thought these days, first she brought her out of Jia's mansion, and then found a good place for her, even the unexpected things were arranged in advance, it was the first time she was so thoughtful.

His son can care about other things, but he has never cared about emotional matters. This is the first time he has to see what the other party looks like.

"Aren't you going back to the palace? There are still people waiting for you to discuss matters in the palace."

"It's okay to take a look, why do you think I'm here?"

"Who dares to dislike you?" Princess Yongkang said angrily, "You can tell what the girl of the Lin family looks like if you stare at that girl Yun'an. If you want me to say, she is the only one in the world."

Hearing this, King Yongkang couldn't help being surprised, it was the first person who could make his palace say such a thing.

It's really a fairy concubine who can't be born with a mortal body.

After the two of them sat down, King Yongkang stared at Ji Yun'an, saw her walking around the Jade Bridge with the jade silk, and greeted several acquaintances before stopping.

"See it?"

"It's farther away."

"People are dazzled before they are very old." Princess Yongkang said angrily: "Look at it carefully and you should go back. If you don't leave, other sisters and sisters will laugh at me for sticking to you. You have to send it when you go out. It's delivered." And don’t let anyone go.”

The Yongkang palace is not only enviable by the royal relatives and relatives, but the couple's relationship is even more enviable. Since they got married 23 years ago, there have been no rumors of discord.

The harmony of the qin and the cymbals, and the eyebrows raised in the case, made all the officials in the capital envious.

Hearing that King Yongkang just smiled, when he was about to speak, he saw Ji Yunan dragging a girl out, and couldn't help but stare carefully.

"You are really telling the truth, the only person in the world, you said, staying in the Rongguo Mansion, how come the marriage has not been settled at this age? The Rongguo Mansion is no less crowded than our mansion, not just a while ago A few marriages have been arranged—" Yongkang Wang just remembered something when he said this, "Isn't the surname Jia after all?"

Both Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion are surnamed Jia, and they are the four most prominent families of their ancestors. They don't need to be so concerned about an orphan girl who has no father or mother.

Withdrawing his gaze, "I have to go back to the palace for dinner tonight, I'm leaving."

"I'm not afraid that others will say about you, no matter how many days I want someone to go home to eat with you."

"Isn't there such a person in front of you? Come on, I won't tell you, and I won't be able to leave if I continue. The family has something to discuss with me. Originally, I wanted that kid Yuanlan to follow, but I asked him to find someone first." I'm afraid I'll have to come with that brother from the Lin family soon." Yongkang Wang stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked out.

Princess Yongkang raised the curtain, looked at him and said, "Let the guards around you follow."

"rest assured."

Ji Yun'an led Daiyu to the pavilion and sat down, took a piece of broken pastry from the plate and threw it into the pool, "It's been a few days since I haven't seen you, but I miss you, see? At the spring banquet, each one is more beautiful than the other, and it's also a good idea." I don't know what's on my mind."

Daiyu laughed, looking at the carp in the pond, the red or gold colors on their bodies made the water come alive.

"You don't have the slightest thought?"

"You really don't like what you say. Fortunately, I know what you mean. If you want me to have any thoughts, I won't show them here. Otherwise, if others see it, it will only make people laugh." Ji Yunan curled her lips, "You Did you see it? Gu Yuanhe smiled like the wind blowing willows."

Hearing this, Daiyu couldn't help laughing out loud, and shook her head, "Keep your voice down, she's going to make trouble with you after hearing this, and throw you into the water in a while, I'm not good at water."

"Then I'll have to sink down to be with the carp."

After speaking, the two laughed.

Go down to the carp as a companion. I am afraid that the carp might disturb the tranquility of the pond. Today, many people came. Just for a while, there are a lot of pastries in the pond.

"Sister Lin, are you there?"

"Fourth sister?" Daiyu stared at Xichun who appeared in front of her, and then looked back for a moment, and found that Baochai, Li Wan and the others did not follow, she couldn't help being surprised, then she thought, she must have gone to talk to other people , Xichun has always been soft-tempered, and doesn't like to deal with others, she is the most innocent among her sisters.

She stepped forward and reached out to hold Xichun's hand, "If you come here alone, you won't be afraid that they won't find you later."

"Are you worried that you won't be able to find anyone when you're all here? No, besides, they definitely don't have time to talk to me right now. I came here when I saw you. I didn't say a few words when I saw you at home last time." talk." Xichun blinked at Daiyu, "You don't know, something happened in the house, but—"

Glancing at Ji Yunan, seeing Ji Yunan sitting there concentrating on feeding the fish, she still lowered her voice.

"what's up?"

"An accident happened in the Cui'an, and Miaoyu was taken away by someone."

"what!"

Daiyu couldn't help being astonished, the Grand View Garden actually let thieves in, could it be that something happened in the house and even the nursing home couldn't watch it?Although Quicui Temple is near the courtyard wall of the Grand View Garden, taking a living person away like this should make a lot of noise. Why didn't the people below notice it?

Seeing Daiyu was surprised, Xichun shook her head and sighed softly, "I sent people to look for it, but I didn't find it. Because of this, my second elder brother was angry for several days. If it wasn't for Sister Bao's persuasion, I'm afraid it would cause trouble again." The wife is not happy."

"Angry in front of Sister Bao because of Miaoyu?"

"It's not that I'm angry with Sister Bao, I'm afraid I'm angry with myself."

He couldn't be seen to be angry because of himself, but when did that person worry about this, even the time she went there he almost couldn't hold back his temper, from now on, Baochai might have to worry more.

Sighing lightly, he clenched Xichun's hand, "Now that the third sister is not here, and the second sister is not at the house either, I'm afraid it will be boring for you to stay in that garden by yourself."

"Brother Lan has made the elder sister-in-law worry about these days. Sister Bao helps the second sister-in-law take care of the house every day, and she has to worry about the second elder brother. I also go to find Miaoyu every day to talk and play chess. Zi Zi, who knew that her life was so miserable that she was taken away by the hands of thieves, and sister Xing also had less contact with her, so she was really deserted."

It's deserted a lot, but there's nothing I can do about it. They were the sisters who originally lived in the Grand View Garden. Could it be possible to live there for a lifetime?

Daiyu looked back at Ji Yun'an, saw that she blinked at her, then took Yubo and went to talk to others, she felt relieved, and nodded gratefully - Ji Yun'an really understood her, and she would not be casual Inquire about.

Pulling Xichun to sit down, "If the garden is deserted, you——if you can come out of the house if you have time, you can come to my house to find me."

"Sister Lin is hospitable now?"

"I am a hospitable person. I am a hospitable person who matches my temper." Daiyu smiled and said, "I'm afraid that you are not allowed to come here often at home. If you come, I will have more ways to relieve boredom than if you are in the garden." It is better to paint all day long."

"Sister Ganqing, this is because she stopped writing poems and didn't let me paint."

Daiyu just smiled and looked into the distance.

She likes to recite poems and compose Fu, but after seeing the pear blossoms all over the mountain that day, she just felt that the things in her mind were not as good as the scenery in front of her eyes. Maybe, she really lost the aura that everyone said and became a layman One, I am actually envious of these things that ordinary people can often see, and live a life.

Who says she is an outsider, what she wants is just to be someone who doesn't depend on others, who doesn't cause trouble and doesn't worry about it.

"I didn't know you were an ordinary person before. What Miaoyu said is true."

"You believe what she says, why don't you believe what I say? If you don't want to come, I won't ask you to come." Daiyu curled her lips and said, "Look at how long I've only been away, but I'm not here to talk about me." gone."

"I dare not."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, but they remembered many things when they were young.

Caiping came over, saw Daiyu slightly surprised and said, "Hello Miss Lin."

"Why are you here?"

"The lady over there asked me to come, she said she was going to let the girl go, the two grandmas are here, the girl should go there, in case the wife is in a hurry later." Caiping said in a low voice: "Look, it's for the girl to go and meet each other. , the wife from another family is sitting, joking with her."

Hearing that Xichun's complexion changed, a bit of indifference appeared inexplicably on her still immature face, which made Daiyu shake her head involuntarily.

This little sister of hers is really cold-hearted, she treats everyone the same, yet she treats everyone differently, and the occasional coquettish appearance will surprise everyone.

"If I had known this, I might as well not have come."

"Girl, don't say that. If you say this, let your wife hear it. You should say that you are too young to know what to do."

"Let's go, let's go, we can't hide."

Xichun got up, glanced at Daiyu and said, "Sister Lin, you are lucky."

One sentence made Daiyu stunned, she even forgot to get up, she didn't come back until Xichun was no longer in sight, she lowered her eyes to stare at the koi carp in the pond, feeling as if her strength was being pulled away from her body - her life is good ?Looking at it now, she is really lucky. She was originally lonely and helpless, but now she has become a treasure in the palm of her hand, but it is not a good fate.

She wasn't angry at Xichun for saying this, because she knew that Xichun didn't mean to be sarcastic.

The uncle in the Ning Mansion went earlier. Xichun's mother passed away shortly after she was born. She was originally raised by the Ning Mansion, but she was raised by Mrs. Jia's side since she was a child. Although the surname is Jia, it may not be than her.

"Girl, what's the matter?" Zijuan stepped forward and carefully stretched out her hand to support Daiyu, "Would you like to sit over there?"

"Miaoyu was taken away by thieves, and her whereabouts are unknown."

"...Personal fate, the girl is concerned about her own fate." Zijuan was stunned, seeing that Daiyu's complexion was not very good, and comforted her: "Young lady, I almost couldn't bear it, and now I am sitting here , and even my body is stronger than before.”

Daiyu looked up at Zicuckoo and nodded slightly.

Fate, what she is afraid of is fate.

Ji Yun'an caught a glimpse of something wrong with Daiyu's complexion, and was about to say goodbye to the people around her when she saw two figures entering the crowd, causing commotion wherever they went, and they were much more eye-catching than the other princes and grandsons.

"Brother is here, let's go, let's go."

"Princess, slow down and don't fall!"

Yubo followed behind, afraid that Ji Yunan would trip over her if she accidentally tripped, and she would have to fall and have to stay in the house for a while.

Lin Wenjin glanced at Ji Yuanlan next to him, and coughed lightly: "You—you slow down, you are in such a hurry, those who don't know think you are going to fight the enemy."

"You have a point."

"I really see that you are in a hurry. Since you are in such a hurry, why don't you settle down earlier?"

"I think your mother is reluctant."

"I can't bear it either."

Looking at Lin Wenjin's smug face, Ji Yuanlan naturally didn't want to talk to him anymore, he just felt that Lin Wenjin should settle down sooner, and let him have a taste of it, so as not to talk about him all day long, and he really has nothing to do with him .

Shaking his head, someone blocked his way when he was about to go around to say hello to his mother.

"I thought you weren't coming, why are you here?"

"——If you can come, I can come too, what? Did the Spring Banquet clearly state that I can't come?" Ji Yuanlan raised his eyebrows and smiled, opened the fan in his hand and smiled: "Young Lord, I haven't seen you for a long time. Looking at it again It's even more disliked than it was a few days ago, if you want me to say, you—hey, that's all, I can't explain it to you, and I didn't deal with it before."

Ma Yu's face changed suddenly, and he snorted coldly, "I think you have some ability, that's all. You used to always dismiss my words, but now you are not in school, and you are still the same as before. You envy me Don't you feel happy to be on the list this year?"

"How do you know that I am not as good as you in taking the scientific examination?"

"Then take the test if you have the ability, don't fail the list."

"Why do I have to take the exam? If you let me go, I'll go. Wouldn't that be very embarrassing?" Ji Yuanlan folded his fan and tapped Zhu Jing's shoulder, "Young Master should take care of yourself, so that you don't have to take care of yourself next time. The bullshit that Chao Shang said doesn't make sense, and it offends Sheng Yan."

"you--!"

Lin Wenjin coughed lightly, "My lord, I will take my farewell first, and I will go look for you after greeting my mother."

Ji Yuanlan nodded, "I'm going to say hello to my mother too, please don't stand in the way of the young master, everyone has to go through the passage."

"Little Marquis, let me take my leave."

Looking at the backs of Ji Yuanlan and Lin Wenjin, Zhu Jing was so angry that he kicked the tree next to him, gasped in pain, and glared unwillingly at the two people following him, "What are you looking at, usually one or two are very good at talking, Why did you become dumb when you were in front of him, Ji Yuanlan? Not only can you not spit out ivory with your mouth upwards, you don’t even need to use it normally.”

"Little Marquis is happy and angry, why bother with him, he only got his current title because of that incident, and he has no official title, so don't worry about it."

"Brother Li is right, the young master is happy and angry."

Angry? !He's so hot right now!

Lin Wenjin glanced at Ji Yuanlan, and said in a low voice: "Why did you have a feud with the young master of An Ronghou's mansion? Look, it was a long time ago?"

"He's simple-minded, but he's also talented. It's just that... he's overbearing and can't be seen by others. He has had festivals since he was a child, and the festivals will get bigger and bigger as he grows older. Naturally——" Ji Yuanlan laughed, "You are Smart, neither side offends."

"People are small and weak, and there is no other choice."

"I didn't see that you had no choice but to go over quickly."

"Today's scene opened my eyes." Lin Wenjin was referring to the spring banquet. The wives of each family were thinking about their own families. It's no wonder that the officials and family members in Beijing always go back and forth between these families. It's always like this. Nothing.Ordinary people can't enter the high school, and they are still ordinary people. If they can be on the list, they are really from poor families, and they can't get into the eyes of these princes and marquises.

He was very self-aware that those invitations to visit could be aimed at anyone, but they couldn't be aimed at his Lin family.

When he saw Mrs. Liu, his face returned to its usual appearance.

"Mother is well."

"He came directly from the Imperial Academy?"

"How dare you, I came here after changing clothes at home, and it took me a while, but today's spring banquet, my mother and sister are here, so I have to come too." Lin Wenjin sat down beside him, "I heard that it will be good in a while." Come on stage, I didn't miss it, right?"

Liu said with a smile: "You didn't miss it. It should start soon. The voices of the theater troupe over there are coming. If you ask me, I don't know what is going on at the spring banquet. The three of us, mother and son, have also learned a lot."

Daiyu who was dazed by the side heard these words, the tip of her nose turned sour, tears were about to fall.

Zijuan hurriedly took a glass of water and handed it over, "Miss, drink some water to moisten your throat. I just talked to Miss Si for a long time, and I'm afraid my mouth and tongue will be dry now."

Hearing this, Lin Wenjin was surprised and said, "Have you met someone from the Jia family?"

"I only saw the fourth sister alone."

"Looking at your face, you thought you were bumped into again. Thanks to Zicuckoo, otherwise, where would you go to find someone who stares at you all the time."

Xueyan twitched her lips, "Master, do you mean that I am not as caring as sister Zijuan?"

Lin Wenjin laughed loudly and said: "It turns out that there are jealous people in Xiangshui Garden, and you even argued with me because of you. You must be disciplined."

Daiyu couldn't help laughing, and cast a reproachful glance at Lin Wenjin.

Seeing Daiyu smile, Lin Wenjin was relieved.

What Mrs. Liu said just now must have aroused Daiyu's sadness, no wonder Daiyu's tears were shallow, anyone would be sad if this matter was brought up.

Thinking of this, Lin Wenjin sighed softly.

"Third brother, thank you."

There was a whisper in his ear, Lin Wenjin said with a low smile, "There is no need to talk about it in the future. If I talk too much, I really want my mother to keep you for two more years."

Daiyu's ears gradually burned, partly because of what Lin Wenjin said, and partly because of the people walking not far away.

The author has something to say:

The timeline has been completely changed, don't break your head with me (I wrote it all blindly)
