Above the main hall, fairy sounds were lingering, and a famous girl, dressed in rich pink and white, was competing to show off her beauty just like the flowers competing in the garden.
For a while, the officials exchanged glasses, the wives rushed to discuss, and even Queen Mother Hua, who had been having a hard time recently, rarely smiled.
Because Concubine Xiao did not cause any trouble today, and there were no other problems at the banquet. As long as she watched these performances quietly, the day would be over.
However, in the eyes of the Wang sisters, this banquet was Wang Ting's last freedom.
As soon as the banquet is over, she will return to the cage called the Wang family, and then be sent to Su County as a gift, becoming an old man's caged bird.
Her persistence in business and her fantasies about the future are nothing but a mirror...
That letter is true.
Wang Ting wanted to deny it, but she couldn't deceive her proud shrewdness.
So she turned her attention to Xiao Xiruo, this sickly noble concubine who was considered extremely vulgar by the Wang family and went crazy all day long.
Since the other party can send someone to exchange letters, he must have a way to send her out of the capital.
Seeing Wang Ting looking at Xiao Xiruo, Wang Yiting on the side also reacted and started to beg Xiao Xiruo.
Then they heard Xiao Xiruo say:
"I will not help you leave the capital."
Wang Yiting wilted, but Wang Ting said:
"Why?"
"Because I can save you for a while, but I can't help you for the rest of your life. What can you do if you escape? Your Wang family's business is spread all over Dayan. It's not easy to find someone to catch you with money? Even if I send you to Beiliang, the Wang family will have to
It’s still fair and just to reply to you.”
While sipping hot water, Xiao Xiruo placed the reality in front of Wang Ting.
This is an era without human rights. There are too many things that family interests can influence, and the requirements for women are also harsh.
It is true that Wang Ting can do business, but she does not know martial arts, has no experience in traveling, and is still a good-looking daughter.
"I will protect myself. The worst I can do is destroy this face with my own hands..."
Under Xiao Xiruo's gaze, Wang Ting stopped speaking abruptly.
Who wants to hurt themselves?
She doesn't want to either.
But she wants to be free and do what she likes most, and for this she is not only willing to give up her face, but also her life.
Seeing the determination in Wang Ting's eyes, Xiao Xiruo felt that it was almost time.
"Actually, it's not impossible. As long as you are no longer a member of the Wang family, the Wang family will naturally have no control over you."
Wang Ting was stunned.
While she was stunned, Yan Jin'er had already flipped her skirt and danced, ushering in the attention of the crowd.
So the next second, Yan Moqing stood up from his position and performed a beautiful sword dance, which brought unprecedented surprise to everyone in the audience.
Seeing the finale, Hua Suyi moved lightly with lotus steps, and the burnt sandalwood tail of the Guqin in her hand was about to show off the peerless piano skills of the Hua family girls.
Wang Ting lowered his eyes and said softly "I do".
Since the original road is blocked, it's better to find a new one.
The lingering sound of a lovesickness song lingered in the air, and Hua Suyi lowered her eyes to see the gift, which caught everyone's attention.
For a moment, the onlookers in the hall nodded one after another, knowing that today's reception was well worth it.
Yan Jin'er, Yan Moqing, and Hua Suyi, these three people are so well matched that it's hard to tell them apart.
Especially the little-known Yan Moqing is simply unforgettable.
With such talent, how could she be a loser?
King Qi is blind, King Qi is blind!
No, King Qi was so angry that he almost smashed the cup.
Among everyone talking and laughing with their own concerns, Xiao Xiruo's mood may be the most complicated.
She glanced at Feng Yehan who was "sitting", and then glanced at Feng Xuan with the beautiful lady beside him. For a moment, she didn't know whether Feng Xuan was having sex with Feng Yehan, or Feng Yehan was giving in to Feng Xuan.
Because she had already heard Yan Moqing call Feng Xuan "Brother Xuan"...
In the original text, shouldn't Yan Moqing call Feng Yehan "Brother Han" and King Feng Xuanxuan?
For a moment, Xiao Xiruo felt that she was in a melon field with unlimited melons.
As for Feng Wuyan, who was in front of the imperial case and saw her looking around, often stopping at Feng Yehan and Feng Xuan, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
As a result, Xiao Xiruo was instantly awakened by a negative reminder.
Raising her eyes to meet Feng Wuyan's eyes as deep as the sea, she blinked innocently, silently accusing someone of his unpredictable bad temper.
She looked a little confused, which made people want to pinch her fair and tender face.
I squeezed it red, then looked at her squeamish eyes, and kept saying "it hurts".
Feng Wuyan thought this way, and his deep gaze became full of interest.
"The banquet has been held, and the talents have been showcased. On this Lantern Festival, the Ai family can't keep you all here any longer. If there's nothing else to do, let's just leave today."
Queen Mother Hua rubbed her temples, showing a little fatigue.
Now that she was done with fanning the flames, she didn't want to waste time here anymore.
She believed that she had said so, and no one would object here...
"Wait a minute, Queen Mother, Xiruo has something to say!"
Queen Mother Hua: "?"
To be honest, she really wanted to sew Xiao Xiruo's mouth shut so that she would stop acting like a monster.
But in public, she still had to smile and say, "Just tell me."
Then everyone saw Cheng Kang, the son of Shilang Cheng's family, who had just taken office a few days ago, and walked quickly to the front of the imperial court.
When talking about Cheng Kang, the eyes of many officials in the palace lit up.
Because he went to war with his father and accidentally injured his brain. Such stupidity, ten years passed in a blink of an eye.
But not long ago, he suddenly fell into a coma for three days, and then miraculously recovered.
It doesn't matter at all, he has returned to military glory, canceled his undesirable marriage, and suddenly became a member of the Imperial Guard.
This luck made Marquis Yonglin so angry that he didn't have a good meal for three days.
But some people speculate that Chen Kang was not lucky, but that he had help from noble people. After all, many people remember the pill in Xiao Guifei's hand that saved the life of General Yan.
It is said that during the New Year's Eve explosion, the decoctions and ointments provided by the Xiao family's secret guards also killed many people.
However, we have no substantial evidence, so we can only say that Cheng Kang was lucky.
"Cheng Qianhu, what are you doing?"
Empress Dowager Hua leaned on the golden throne and asked everyone's doubts.
"To report to the Queen Mother, I have been pleased with Wang Ting, the second daughter of Lord Wang Zhi, Minister of the Ministry of War, for a long time. Today I came to ask the Queen Mother, the Emperor, and the noble concubine to marry me on my behalf."
Cheng Kang knelt down on one knee and made a sonorous plea.
However, before Queen Mother Hua could speak, Wang Zheng, the head of the Wang family over there, stood up first and said with a smile, but in fact, he was teasing:
"Cheng Qianhu has a good eye, and Ting'er is indeed outstanding. Unfortunately, things don't come true. Ting'er has made a promise a few days ago, and will get married the day after. It's difficult for our Wang family to follow the instructions of the matchmaker and parents.
It can’t be done.”
In Wang Zheng's view, the Wang family's attitude was already very obvious.
But he never expected that Wang Ting would walk up to Cheng Kang at this moment and kneel in front of the emperor with a plop.
"My daughter and Master Cheng are in love, and I would like to ask the Queen Mother, the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine to marry me!" This chapter has been completed!
