Princess Hanshan and the Second Princess took the lead, followed by a group of noble ladies, walking toward the back garden in a mighty manner. Along the corridor, there were no snowflakes, and the temperature was just right in their cloaks.

The back garden of Princess Hanshan's Mansion is a wooden greenhouse with a fire tunnel underneath. The ground dragon had burned it long ago. As soon as they entered the large wooden house with a greenhouse, everyone felt a sense of warmth.

Generally, houses with earth dragons, fire walls, and earthen kangs are extremely dry, but this warm wooden house is not that obviously dry. There seems to be a wave of water in the house.

"My aunt's greenhouse is really the favorite place for people to come in winter." The second princess said with a smile. This is also the reason why she likes to come to the Plum Banquet.

"This greenhouse was built on the lake. We built a fence around it and sealed it from the top, leaving a few openings. Then we built it a lot higher, added fire channels, and then built the greenhouse."

The head of Pingyuan County talked freely and introduced the peculiarities of the greenhouse to everyone. Especially those who came here for the first time were all surprised and surprised. This is a big project.

"The lake water is living water. Even if it is sealed, the water source is still alive. It is cool in summer, and if you light the ground dragon in winter, you will not feel dry in the greenhouse."

Chen Xiuyan understood, and then sighed that it would be good to have money.

Today, ten tables were set up for the plum banquet. All the family members of countless officials in the capital came. Chen Xiuyan and the three of them were arranged separately. Chen Xiuyan and Princess Changshou were placed at the main table. Princess Luo Mingxin's title was the fourth rank.

, the fifth table was located at the back, which made Chen Xiuyan's face darken.

"Mr. Wenshui was given a marriage to the fifth Tatar prince as his concubine, so it's not appropriate to arrange it later." The second princess saw Chen Xiuyan's expression and spoke to resolve the situation.

"I don't know which of the maids is careless, she could have put it all wrong." Shen Rong smiled and moved Luo Mingxin's position to the main table, adding an empty seat next to Chen Xiuyan. Anyway, the main table is the largest, so adding

No one feels crowded.

Because of what the second princess said, Princess Hanshan could no longer target Luo Mingxin, so she could only have the heartless maid kicked out of the greenhouse and replaced with a maid to serve her.

The people who came here were all the mistresses of the backyard who were too scheming to understand. Princess Hanshan was dissatisfied with Lord Wenshui. The reason must have been the marriage to a foreign country. Nan'an was not as good as Tatar.

Everyone knows that the county lord is not as good at marrying as the county lord, so it is no wonder that Princess Hanshan is uncomfortable.

But the second princess's statement is very meaningful. The second princess and the third prince are twins, and the Jin Palace is on the third prince's boat. It seems that the relationship is really close.

The second princess's speech also made many people speculate about the meaning of the palace, whether they were dissatisfied with Princess Hanshan, or why the marriage grant fell to Princess Hanshan's house. Older people all know that Princess Hanshan got married that year.

In a hurry, Princess Hanshan chose Shen Guogong herself, but it was they who caused the uproar later.

Even if the palace sympathizes with Princess Hanshan, there are still some who don't like her. She did it herself. In recent years, she has gone to the palace many times for the sake of her children, and she has obtained many benefits. The palace must be a little tired of it, otherwise the Lord of Pingyuan County will act

The legitimate daughter of a princess should be given the title of princess, but the palace gave her the title of county princess...

"The plum blossoms picked last year were brewed with clean snow water and buried under the plum trees for a full year. They were taken out today. Let's all have a few glasses and try this plum blossom wine." Princess Hanshan was a little annoyed, but

Still smiling, we kicked off today’s plum banquet.

The wine-making jars have long been emptied, and the plum blossom wine has been poured into exquisite azure wine jugs, which are worth a lot at first glance. The maids filed in and filled the cups for all the ladies and ladies present. The fragrance was refreshing.

The color of the wine was slightly pink, and the aroma of the wine contained a cold and elegant plum fragrance, which made everyone present feel that the wine was good.

The wine was filled, and the dishes were served one after another. The plum banquet noodles were all cooked as expected, and the food was so hot and fresh. This surprised Chen Xiuyan, but she was more expecting it, because such ingredients are the best.

Tasty.

The first dish was plum blossom and lily porridge. Chen Xiuyan was not very excited after hearing the name. She generally liked sweet porridge, but when others brought it, she was surprised. The plum blossoms were just an embellishment and were not cooked into the porridge. She thought it was sweet.

The porridge turned out to be seafood porridge, with lilies as decoration, but the main abalone and sea cucumber did not have names.

Only then did Chen Xiuyan realize that her name was not true, and she was probably trying to get along with Meihuaquan.

Chen Xiuyan looked at the porridge in front of her and thought of Japanese food. It was exquisite but the portion was really small. Chen Xiuyan only took three spoonfuls of it. The spoon was not very big, so it was true that she still had more to say.

The second course is fried plum cake, a sweet dish. The crispy fried dough is filled with juicy plum blossom filling. It is not too sweet. The taste of plum blossom is light and leaves a fragrance on your lips and teeth after eating it. However, one plum cake only costs two thumbs.

Cover size.

The third course was candied plum blossom crispy pork; then the plum blossom mandarin fish was served, of course, each person only got one piece.

The fifth course starts with plum blossom ham and mutton soup, plum blossom sliced ​​duck, plum blossom baked venison, plum snow thin noodles, plum baguette...

Chen Xiuyan looked at the dishes with plum blossoms one after another, either meat, staple food, snacks, or dishes. Her ears were numb, her mouth was not busy enough, and her stomach was still a little empty. The portion was too small, so let’s just leave it here.

Feeding the chickens.

The plum blossom wine was quite good and sweet. Chen Xiuyan took a few sips and found the aftertaste was sweet, but she didn't dare to taste it any more. She didn't know how it would last. She brought someone out today.

The plum blossom wine in front of Princess Changshou is just a decoration. What she really drinks is sweet wine. Luo Mingxin is no longer qualified to drink sweet wine. Everyone her age drinks plum blossom wine. It is not easy for a girl to get drunk after drinking it, and it is difficult for her to refuse.

.

"Mr. Wenshui, I would like to toast you with this glass of wine. We are all going to marry in a foreign country. I hope everything goes well in this foreign country from now on." The head of Pingyuan County suddenly stood up and raised his glass to Luo Mingxin.

Luo Mingxin stood up and raised his glass generously, "Thank you so much, Lord County."

After saying that, Luo Mingxin drank up the glass of wine in one gulp. The Lord of Pingyuan County took a sip and sat down calmly.

With the beginning of Pingyuan County Lord, what he said made sense, and there was an endless stream of people making toasts. Chen Xiuyan looked at Luo Mingxin, who was drinking more and more, and her cheeks were a little red, and felt distressed in her heart.

There were also people who respected Princess Pingyuan, but they were all of higher status than her. Only Princess Pingyuan would have a drink, and the rest of the time they would just touch their lips.

Luo Mingxin couldn't do it here, and drank one glass after another.

"I'm afraid this child has drunk too much." Chen Xiuyan stood up and supported Luo Mingxin, stretched out her hand to put a small force on her waist, and Luo Mingxin intelligently leaned on Chen Xiuyan's shoulder.
