For what happened to Feng Jinxing, although Ling Yao didn't complain or blame her rationally, she couldn't love her, so why didn't she feel any resentment at all?
At this time, I felt that it was really unfilial for me to have such thoughts.
Her father loves her so much, and everything is for her own good. As a daughter, how can she resent her father?
Ling Yao completed the second plus procedure in tears. After returning to the side hall to wash her face and change clothes, her mood calmed down.
The etiquette process was carried out in an orderly manner amidst beautiful music. Finally, it was time to reach the third level. When Ling Yao walked out of the side hall in a bright, beautiful and elegant dress, there was a burst of admiration and admiration from the audience.
“What a beautiful place!”
"It's so beautiful! It captivates the city and the country!"
"Can the Emperor's twin sister be any different?"
…
Shangguan Ruoli thought to himself: If my daughter is so beautiful, I should praise her and Dongming Ziyu, right? How could she directly praise the emperor?
Perhaps, this is the treatment people get when they take a backseat to tea.
Gu Yunlan clenched her fists tightly, with envy and jealousy flashing in her eyes. When did she have such a chance to be surrounded by stars?
Mrs. Dingyuan Hou washed her hands, walked to Ling Yao, and took off the hairpin from her head.
Gu Yunlan came over holding a tray. On the tray was a rare blood jade hairpin.
Mrs. Dingyuan Hou picked up the hairpin and tied it in Ling Yao's bun.
Ling Yao knelt down on the soft cushions, listening to her parents sitting in front with tears in her eyes. They were teaching her how to abide by her boudoir's instructions in the future, and so on.
After the hearing, Lingyao bowed to everyone present to thank her, and then announced the completion of the ceremony.
After the ceremony, everyone went to the Qiankun Hall to attend the banquet.
This year's banquet was particularly lively. According to the rules, men and women sat separately, leaving a large space in the middle for singing and dancing performances.
This year's Wanshou Festival is Lingyao's hairpin ceremony, and there are so many foreign missions coming to Da Ming for the first time, so the banquet is grand, and the singing and dancing scenes are also magnificent.
Of course, the performers were all singers, dancers, and Da Ming's noble ladies. The gentlemen had no talent for performing. Those foreign missions were all there, and the noble ladies and gentlemen were not performing for those people.
Ling Yao suppressed the urge to look at the opposite side and "concentrated" on watching the performance, but her eyes always fell on the male guests opposite.
Through the dancing sleeves, Ling Yao met Feng Jinxing's eyes staring at her.
Feng Jinxing's eyes were gentle and affectionate, with a touch of joy and pampering.
The two people's eyes met in the air, and then became entangled in each other, and could no longer be separated.
Shangguan Ruoli and Dongming Ziyu were sitting in high seats and naturally noticed Feng Jinxing and Ling Yao.
Shangguan Ruoli squeezed Dongming Ziyu's hand under the table and whispered: "Looking at Feng Jinxing, he must have true feelings for Ling Yao."
Looks can't deceive.
Dongming Ziyu snorted coldly and whispered: "He is an old fox and knows how to pretend."
Shangguan Ruoli could hear resentment and hostility in his voice, and she understood it very well. She was now the mother-in-law, and the more she looked at her son-in-law, the happier she became. However, the father-in-law looked at her son-in-law the same way a mother-in-law looked at her daughter-in-law.
Feeling Dongming Ziyu's cold gaze, Ling Yao took a secret look, lowered her eyes and looked at her nose and heart.
However, she couldn't control her heart and became a little restless. After watching the performance for a while, she felt it was boring.
After making excuses, he quietly left the hall with Qingqiu and the two palace maids, looking for a place to breathe.
Shangguan Ruoli looked at his daughter's somewhat lonely back and said to Dongming Ziyu distressedly: "Did we go too far? Yao'er could have had a happy hairpin ceremony."
Dongming Ziyu peeled a grape and fed it to Shangguan Ruoli, "Not everyone will follow her wishes, she has to adapt. In the future, she will have more troubles when she gets married, including the Wang family's back house and the previous harem.
almost."
Shangguan Ruoli frowned and said: "Ling Yao is the eldest princess anyway, so she can't bear the disadvantage. Besides, Feng Jinxing is an official in the capital, and all the members of the Wang family are in their hometown. He is not the eldest son, and his parents do not live with him."
Generally, parents live with their eldest son. This is the rule.
Besides, Ling Yao is the eldest princess, and if the Wang family's parents want to live with them, they will have to bow down sooner or later. As a feudal patriarch, how can he be willing to kneel down and bow down to his daughter-in-law.
Therefore, as long as you have some brains, you will not be willing to live with Ling Yao, and then Ling Yao will not be able to handle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
At the seats, as soon as Ling Yao left, some people couldn't sit still.
Gu Yunlan also followed out, caught up with Ling Yao, and asked, "Princess, are you feeling unwell?"
Ling Yao wanted to be quiet for a while, but Gu Yunlan was caring about her, so he didn't refute her face, and said with a smile: "I came out for some quiet time, singing and dancing, it's too noisy."
Gu Yunlan smiled and said: "I think so too. Let's go, I'll accompany you."
Ling Yao nodded, "Okay, let's go to the rockery garden for a walk."
The rockery garden is not an imperial garden. It was filled in and rebuilt from the original Lotus Lake. The rockeries are piled up, there is spring water, and the winding paths are filled with flowers and plants, which is quite artistic.
"Princess," a little eunuch bowed and ran over with small steps.
Ling Yao turned back and frowned slightly. This little eunuch was very unfamiliar to her. However, there were many eunuchs in the palace, and she could not recognize them all.
After the little eunuch saluted, he handed a folded piece of paper to Ling Yao: "Master Feng asked the servant to deliver this to the eldest princess."
Ling Yao narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at Qingqiu.
Qingqiu took the note and handed it to Ling Yao.
Ling Yao took the note, opened it and read the content, her eyes were filled with uncertainty.
Gu Yunlan looked over and looked slightly embarrassed.
The little eunuch said: "My business has been done. If the eldest princess doesn't give you any other instructions, I will resign. I will still have to wait at the banquet."
Ling Yao nodded and said: "Okay, please step back."
As soon as the young eunuch left, Gu Yunlan said: "The servant has resigned."
Ling Yao said: "No need, I won't go."
Gu Yunlan's eyes flashed slightly, she smiled, said nothing, and continued walking forward with Ling Yao.
At this time, someone called her again from behind.
"Princess!" Meng Wanzhou ran over, her face flushed and her smile bright.
Followed by Yin Wenxiu, she walked slowly but not slowly at all.
Gu Yunlan frowned, "It's these two annoying guys again!"
These two people rely on their background and beauty to always pester Jing Xi and Jing Yang. At first glance, they look like bitches who want to climb high.
Meng Wanzhou is a little better. Yin Wenxiu looks gentle and generous, but actually looks down on her and always mocks her background.
Ling Yao smiled lightly, "You will always meet annoying people, just be patient."
Gu Yunlan did not want to deal with these two people, and said: "Princess, I don't want to be unhappy on this big day, so I will go back to the banquet first."
Ling Yao said helplessly: "Okay."
Gu Yunlan politely greeted Meng Wanzhou and Yin Wenxiu and left, but she did not return to the banquet.
