Chapter 11 The Princess’s Career Line (7)
Chapter 11 The Princess’ Career Line (7)
Zhang Rutong and Gongsun Shao were chatting enthusiastically about something.
Did he sense something secretly? Zhang Rutong closed his mouth and inadvertently raised his head and glanced outside the rockery, and happened to meet Wanyanjing's eyes.
The two of them looked at each other for half a breath. Wanyan quietly looked away. She looked forward and followed the steward away arrogantly and indifferently.
"Princess, Academician Zhang has been looking at me."
"He's looking at me very much."
"He's been looking at me."
Gantang whispered to Wanyanjing in a low voice.
Wan Yanjing's expression remained unchanged, as if she didn't hear anything at all. She didn't glare at Gan Tang until she turned the corner.
Zhang Rutong had indeed been looking at Yan Jing. After he carefully looked at Wan Yan Jing's makeup and clothes, his eyes stopped at the token that Wan Yan Jing was wearing around her neck.
"For the body of a book, you must enter its shape, whether it is walking or flying... Hey, Brother Zhang, are I listening? If there is anything good to see over there, he should also take a look, oh, did you enter it by mistake?
The female family members." Gongsun Shao's eyes widened and he stood on tiptoe to look over there, "That woman in yellow is very beautiful, I don't know if she is from a certain family. Brother Zhang, do you notice her?"
Zhang Rutong stretched out her legs to press his shoulders away, with a calm look on her face. He had always been gentle towards others, so it was obvious that he was extremely unhappy with such a cold face.
"What nonsense am I talking about? Look clearly, that is a married lady."
"How dare I look at a married lady for so long and look so boldly? When the Tofu Xishi on the street gave me flowers, I blushed and stammered." Gongsun Shao looked at him suspiciously, but he recalled the woman's bun just now.
, it seems that this style is only suitable for married people.
Zhang Rutong remained silent and was about to leave when he heard Gongsun Shao's self-assured words coming from behind.
"Ah, he remembered it. Could it be that Princess Wuxuan is Princess Wuxuan? He had heard before that Brother Zhang and I and Prince Wuxuan... wuwu, um..."
Gongsun Shao was covered by Zhang Rutong who suddenly turned around. He was a young master with both civil and military skills. His civil skills were high and he was an official, and his martial arts were at the level of a third-rate warrior.
But when he tried to break free, he found that the thin-looking Zhang Rutong's legs and arms covering his mouth were actually made of iron. No matter how hard he tried to move, he couldn't move them even an inch away.
Zhang Rutong watched him struggling with cold eyes. Gongsun Shao's face turned red due to the pain of holding his breath, but he was unmoved. Gongsun Shao was extremely frightened, and his good friend who had been chatting happily with him not long ago seemed to be a different person.
Just when Gongsun Shao was about to turn red-eyed, Zhang Rutong loosened his legs and returned to his gentle and elegant look. He patted Gongsun Shao on the back to help Gongsun Shao calm down while he kept coughing.
"Uh, Gongsun, am I okay? He, he was excited just now. He can't help but make mistakes."
Gongsun Shao was furious. He had never been so angry before. He raised his head to beg Zhang Rutong to look good, but he saw Zhang Rutong looking sad and crying and blaming himself. He was confused again.
"I……"
Zhang Rutong smiled bitterly and lowered his voice and said to him:
"No, I read it right. That is indeed Princess Wuxuan, the former Princess Yi'an Wanyanjing. The rumors are also correct, he does admire Princess Yi'an. But that means he has a one-sided admiration for Princess Yi'an, she
, has been a wife for a long time, and does not know about this matter, and it has nothing to do with her. Gongsun, he and I hit it off as old friends, so he told me alone that he hoped that I would help him keep that secret."
Gongsun Shao was reluctant to accept the soft advice and was immediately discouraged. He thought of the marriage that he could not resist and the unruly fiancée, and he felt sad and felt sad about it.
"Brother Zhang, I'm relieved. Oh, no wonder I'm twenty-seven or eighty-years-old and don't have a good girl. Come on, come on, come on, it's not sad. Let's go, let them go have a drink. Don't worry, God knows the secret.
He knows that I know and he knows.”
On the other side, Wan Yanjing entered the table and left.
There were only female relatives at the table, and the two seats at the head were empty. Should they be reserved for Empress Xiao and the old lady of Duke Wei who were not present?
Wan Yanjing was placed in the second echelon, surrounded by young and famous doctors.
She looked to the east. Zhu Lingzhu was walking with her mother-in-law. When she saw her, she blinked her eyes and raised Dongba to show her what to look at.
The person walking opposite Zhu Lingzhu was also a noble lady, and beside her was a woman in a yellow shirt.
The married woman is Mr. Huang's first wife, and the woman in yellow shirt is Huang Shaolan, whom Zhu Lingzhu likes very much, the legitimate daughter of the imperial censor who has been widowed twice and is rumored to be pregnant.
Huang Shaolan was pretty, but even though she wore heavy makeup, she couldn't hide the weakness and haggardness in her expression. She frowned when facing the table full of delicacies, and her throat moved slightly, as if she was holding back her nausea. Look at that look.
It sure feels like I'm pregnant.
Wanyanjing looked over and found that Huang Shaolan had been looking at her with a sinister expression. While looking at her, he was saying something to the young woman walking behind him.
After hearing what Huang Shaolan said, the young woman also looked towards Wan Yanjing. Looking at the situation, it was obvious that Huang Shaolan was speaking ill of her.
At the beginning of the banquet, the elegant Queen Xiao and the old lady of Duke Wei's house with silver hair came to the first place amidst the eunuch's sharp announcement.
Shortly after the miscarriage, Queen Xiao became weak and left the banquet and returned to the palace. The old lady did not leave for too long. Without the host's house, the banquet officially began. The female relatives had no scruples and relaxed and talked and laughed.
Laugh and eat and drink as you please.
The group of old ladies walking beside Wan Yanjing were all very good-looking.
They all also heard about the commotion Wan Yanjing made in the garden. The young female relatives walking in the east looked at her secretly and whispered about her, but the group of old women around her remained calm.
They chatted with Wanyanjing about some light-hearted topics in a friendly manner, and their faces were all kind and peaceful. Wanyanjing felt comfortable being with them.
The young woman next to Huang Shaolan has a slim figure and a red face, like a flawless jade. Her facial features are not ordinary, but her delicate red skin and dignified bookish temperament make her look a little unusual.
Mrs. Huang comes from a Jiangnan family, and Jiang Mingyu, a bookish young woman, is a girl sent by her natal family and wants to entrust her to find a good marriage in the capital.
Although Jiang Mingyu was not a woman, she had read many books and had a different outlook. She was impatient to make irresponsible remarks to Huang Shaolan, but she did not want to offend her sister, so she had to force a smile and agree.
Fortunately, not long after, another female companion who was close to Huang Shaolan came over. The newly arrived Tang Xiuer was not having a good time at her husband's house, and she had more complaints than Huang Shaolan. The two of them were so speculative that it was almost a stinking sumo.
, Jiang Mingyu only needs to nod aside, and the pressure is much less.
After Tang Xiuer finished complaining about Hu Meizi, her husband's new wife, she turned the topic to Wanyan Jingshen.
They misunderstood Wanyan Jing for having too much hostility, maybe because Wanyan Jing was similar in age to them and lived a better life than them.
In Beijing, most people of similar age to her and her husband go to look after their husbands and raise their children, and many of them are even ordered not to go out. Tang Xiuer's mother-in-law died early, and her husband goes to play with himself, so she has many opportunities to go out and chat.
Huang Shaolan is even more unique. She doesn't even have her husband's family, so she is a frequent visitor to various villages in Beijing.
No one cares about Princess Wan Yanjing, but she doesn't know what to do. Not only does she not join their small group, but they also sneer at her, and she will inevitably become a thorn in their side.
Not to mention, Tang Xiuer was slapped by Wan Yanjing not long ago.
