Chapter 186 Tea Party 2

Jiu'er went to tell Li Yan about the matter. Li Yan quickly sent an eye-eyed servant to rent a carriage. When Xia Mengran and Xiaolu walked to the gate, they saw Xia Mengning being helped by Jiu'er to sit in a sedan chair sent by the royal palace. On the contrary, he was just an inconspicuous broken carriage. Xia Mengran was not convinced. He bit his lip angrily, and finally had no choice but to pick up his skirt and walk up.

When Jiu'er saw Xia Mengning sitting down, she said, "Let's go."

Six people walked slowly forward carrying the sedan chair. When passing by Xia Mengran, Xia Mengning lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, took a look at Xia Mengran with a black face, and couldn't help smiling.

Several sedan chairmen's feet were very fast. In a while, they arrived at the royal palace. Jiu'er lifted the curtain of the sedan chair for Xia Mengning and whispered, "Miss, we're here."

Xia Mengning came out with Jiu'er's hand, stood slightly, picked up the handkerchief and covered the corners of her lips. "Go in."

When he walked to the door, Jiu'er handed over the post first. The little man at the door saw it and hurriedly saluted, "The little one has met the third lady, and the third lady is inside."

The royal palace has indeed made a lot of efforts for this tea tasting party. This already magnificent garden has been completely used. It is surrounded by small potted plants and blooming flowers. Every few steps, there is a stone table, on which has already been decorated with exquisite snacks and refreshing tea, and there is almost no need for a girl. As long as you enter this garden, you can quickly integrate into it.

When Xia Mengning and Jiu'er walked into the garden, they saw many daughters who had already arrived. The male guests were on the other side, and there were only a few screens of embroidered landscapes, flowers and birds in the middle. If people sit down, they can't see each other, but if they stand and talk, the screen will have no effect.

Xia Mengning saw this situation, smiled slightly, and said to Jiu'er beside her, "It must be warm everywhere in this spring season. This tea tasting party is not about wine. We didn't know. Now we are thinking about why Xia Mengran is begging eagerly. I finally know the princess's intention. "

Jiu'er lowered her head and smiled. The people on the field are stupid, and it can also be seen that this is a disguised blind date. In the capital, the faceless daughter and Mr. Wang Sun have come here, and they borrowed such an elegant tea tasting. Naturally, it is the heart of these daughters who can only stay in the boudoir all day long. I mean.

Xia Mengning took a few steps and stood slightly under a flower rack. She was dressed in an elegant dress. Her head was just held with a pearl and jasper step. Her face was beautiful. Compared with the flowers blooming on the flower rack, it was not inferior.

Many people noticed Xia Mengning. Xia Mengning looked at the male guest and saw Changsun Yun, dressed in white, sitting alone in front of a stone table. When Xia Mengning looked at him, he was also looking at him gently.

Xia Mengning smiled and still didn't want to be the focus of the crowd. She took a few steps forward and sat down at a stone table.

At the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xia Mengran was sitting in the carriage with a black face. The carriage was just tattered. Why did there be a strange sound when he walked? Xia Mengran sat in the carriage and tried to hold his breath, trying to isolate himself from these strange smells.

The carriage walked slowly for a while, but Xia Mengran couldn't help it. She couldn't help lifting the curtain and said, "When will it arrive?"

The driver sitting in the carriage didn't turn his head and shouted, "What's the hurry? My horse is tired. I'll feed it some grass later. I can't go on the road until I'm full."

Xiao Lv, who was sitting in it, was stunned, and then shouted, "How can that be done? Our lady still has something important to do. If it is delayed, you don't want to take a penny of this money."

As soon as the driver heard this, he suddenly grabbed the reins, turned around and shouted, "What, your lady's business is a big deal. If my horse is exhausted, who is responsible?"

The driver turned his head, which really shocked Xia Mengran and Xiao Lv. Most of the driver's old face was full of scars, ferocious and horrible. Several scars even curled to his mouth. He suddenly looked at it and was suddenly scary.

Xiao Lv and Xia Mengran were both stunned, and then shouted in fear. The driver didn't think so. He seemed to be used to being treated like this. He pulled down the hat on his head and covered most of his face.

Xia Mengran and Xiao Lv curled up in the innermost corner of the carriage and said tremblingly, "If you want to feed the horse first, just send us to the royal palace."

The driver saw that the two people were afraid and laughed disdainfully. Then he slowly let go of the reins in his hand and drove forward.

I don't know how long she walked. Xia Mengran was almost drowsy by the spinning carriage. Finally, she finally stopped. For some reason, the carriage braked again and finally stopped suddenly.

Xia Mengran and Xiao Lv staggered out of the carriage. Xiao Lv gave the money to the driver. The two hurriedly tidied up their clothes and walked into the palace.

When he walked to the gate, he was stopped by the little boy standing there. "Miss, where's your post?"

Xia Mengran was stunned and thought that she didn't have a post but just followed Xia Mengning. Now Xia Mengning is afraid that she has already gone in, and where did she go to get a post?

Many daughters entered through the gate one after another. Those who came asked the girl to hand over the post. Looking at Xia Mengran and the girl standing aside, those daughters all put on a contemptuous gesture. Xia Mengran lowered her head, and her face was red and blue with anger, but she could not show it. There were so many people coming and going here. If you say something wrong, you can spread it all over the capital the next day.

The people around him almost left. Xia Mengran then walked to the little man and said, "I'm the fifth lady of the Prime Minister's mansion. I came with my third sister. My third sister is in it. If you don't believe it, just call her out and prove it to me."

The two little men looked at each other, and one of them said, "The fifth lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion? I only heard that there is a third lady who is as good-looking as a fairy and talented in Xiangfu. When will there be a fifth lady?

Another servant listened and looked at Xia Mengran with a smile and said, "Isn't it the one who pretends to be a daughter? Maybe he wants to come in like this? I think it's better to report to the official quickly so as not to get into trouble."

Hearing this, Xia Mengran was anxious and said, "I'm really the fifth lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If you don't believe it, just call my third sister out and prove it to me."

The little man heard this and couldn't help snorting coldly, "Miss San is the future concubine. It was a marriage given by the emperor himself. Which green onion are you? You still want to see Miss San. What a crazy dream!"

In the garden, many guests were talking in twos and threes. Xia Mengning sat alone on the stone stool and slowly drank the tea in front of her. At this time, a little girl ran to Xia Mengning and said, "I have seen Miss San. The princess has invited Miss San to enjoy tea."

Xia Mengning stood up and said, "It's hard work."

The little girl dared not dare. She walked sideways in front of her to lead the way. The urgent person arrived at the pavilion in the front yard, where many people had gathered. The little girl stepped forward and saluted, "Princess, the third lady is here."

When everyone heard it, they all turned around. After seeing Xia Mengning, they all gave way. Xia Mengning stepped forward and first saluted Zheng Yuxiu, "The little girl has seen the princess."

Zheng Yuxiu sat in the middle of the pavilion and smiled and said, "Get up quickly. I thought you hadn't come yet. I knew that you had come until this question. Why did you sit there alone? It's urgent."

Xia Mengning straightened up and looked at what Zheng Yuxiu said to herself with a smile, with a slight blame and spoiling in her eyes, as if she looked like a quasi-loving mother-in-law.

But Xia Mengning knew in her heart that in this deep house compound, there has never been a really scheming, or a really simple person, not to mention a person who can climb to the position of the princess. Even if she is the queen's own sister and can stabilize her position for so many years, her scheming should not be underestimated.

Sitting next to Zheng Hanxiu is Meng Xianya, who is dressed up. The tea tasting party is elegant. Almost all the people who appear are not very gorgeous. Even Zheng Yuxiu wears a sapphire blue dress, which is not too gorgeous and does not lose his identity.

However, Meng Xianya seemed to be more serious. She wore a water-red short coat and a big pomegranate red skirt. Her head was full of gorgeous jewelry and glittered in the sun, making people almost unable to look directly at her appearance.

Zheng Yuxiu looked at Xia Mengning and said, "Bring a chair for the third lady."

Xia Mengning saluted in a hurry, "Thank you, Princess."

After sitting down, Zheng Yuxiu smiled and said, "Today, I specially invited a tea cooker from the palace to cook a pot of Wufeng silver needles for us on the spot."

Beiguo attaches great importance to the tea ceremony. Almost everyone can cook fragrant tea. Even in ordinary people's homes, there are several sets of regular tea sets.

Xia Mengning smiled and said, "Tea is the essence of heaven and earth. I have long heard that the master in the palace is first-class in cooking tea. It's really an honor for the little girl to have the honor to see it today."

Zheng Yuxiu nodded. Meng Xianya beside her couldn't help looking at Xia Mengning contemptuously. As early as the last time Xia Mengning spoiled her good deeds, she hated Xia Mengning. This time, she also prepared a strategy early and just wanted to avenge the last time. Thinking of this, Meng Xianya smiled and said, "Oh? I heard that Miss Xia is talented. Presumably this tea ceremony is also excellent. Why don't you show your hands in front of everyone today?

Xia Mengning smiled, "The little girl only knows about the tea ceremony, and she is not proficient."
