Chapter 223 Nee
When the eldest princess arrived at Xuanhuaguan, there was still a Princess Anping sitting in the carriage. In addition to the previous Princess Ruolian, Lin Huazhi saw three princesses today.
This is definitely the worst day in Lin Huazhi's life. Let alone the previous closeness of Princess Ruolian to her, even Princess Anping showed unimaginable enthusiasm for Lin Huazhi. Lin Huazhi is thinking, is it because of Lin Yuyang that the princesses care about her? Do the princesses in the palace hate marriage so much? Princess Ruolian is 15 years old, but Princess Anping is only 11 years old.
Lin Huazhi was secretly shocked and afraid. As a civilian, she really couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the beautiful girls these days.
After Princess Ruolian appeared, Lin Huazhi found that Qingjing had become farther and farther away from her. After that, there was always a lady who used an excuse to talk to her and talk about her family life. Of course, no matter what kind of topic it was, she would talk about Lin Yuyang in the end.
At noon, Xuanhua Guan held a vegetarian banquet, and Lin Huazhi sat at the banquet, which was tasteless.
Chunbai knelt behind her and waited. Seeing her restless, he comforted her in a low voice, "Lin Huazhi, this is just the beginning. You have to hold on."
Lin Huazhi naturally knows what Chunbai means. Although it can be known from the attitude of Du Yinglian and Princess Ruolian, she has learned about the release of this year's list, but she didn't hear it herself. Lin Huazhi always felt like 15 buckets hanging in her heart.
After taking a sip of sake, Lin Huazhi asked Chunbai slightly, "Have you heard any news?"
"Xuanhuaguan is a long way from the city. If you want to know the situation of Lin Yuyang, it will take at least a few minutes for news to come. However, I don't think you should be worried about Lin Yuyang at this time. You should worry about yourself.
Lin Huazhi's eyes and eyebrows collapsed. In the face of princesses and ladies who were too enthusiastic, it was definitely a disaster.
After thinking for a while, Lin Huazhi still couldn't help saying, "At most, it's just release the list. You have to wait for the top student and the palace to try. If your majesty doesn't like Lin Yuyang, I'm afraid you won't even get an official and half. Are the two princesses too intimate with me?"
Chunbai said, "It depends on what your sister does. It's not good to say. If you make these two princesses happy today, Lin Yuyang will definitely be the champion. On the contrary, think about it yourself."
Lin Huazhi thought that if Cui Yuan is incompatible with her, they will always have an accident every time they meet. If they talk about things, this Xuanhua view is absolutely inconsistent with her aura. Every time she enters this view, there will always be an accident. What should she do?
Just as Lin Huazhi couldn't help sighing, Chunbai suddenly whispered behind her, "The eldest princess will drink to you."
Lin Huazhi looked up and saw the other end of the long mat. The eldest princess was smiling at her gently. She was so panicked that she picked up the sake in front of her, stood up and raised her glass to show her toast first.
With the eldest princess in front of her, then Princess Ruolian, Princess Anping and ladies who had spoken without talking, they all caught the opportunity to show their goodwill to Lin Huazhi, which really tested her drinking capacity. Fortunately, the sake on the table is brewed from fruit. Although Lin Huazhi drank a lot, it was only slightly smoked, and nothing went wrong.
After a simple luncheon, the eldest princess invited everyone to go to the backyard to enjoy autumn chrysanthemums and begonias.
Lin Huazhi deliberately fell to the end because she drank a lot of wine. Chunbai helped her and joked as he walked, "You can't drink. Go back and practice well. Such an occasion will be indispensable in the future."
Lin Huazhi poohed, "Does this kind of suffering have to come every day? At worst, I will go back to Jiangdong City to see who will let me drink.
Chunbai said, "You don't want to be close to people, but how will those young ladies let you go? Among other things, those ladies are all from large families. They are more careful than you. Today, I saw that the three princesses have blue eyes on you. Why don't those ladies try their best to find a favor for you? If you make friends with the princess, both they and the family behind them will have a good excuse in the future.
Chunbai's words are right. There are indeed some things that you can't avoid. Lin Huazhi also knows that what she said just now are just angry words. There will be a long time to go, and some things can't be avoided and turned a blind eye.
Chunbai said again, "Don't think that only you will suffer losses. It's also good for you to make friends with these ladies. Lin Yuyang wants to go further and higher as an official in the future, and you have to deal with some people. If I don't say these things, you know it in your heart. If you don't like it, just think it's for Lin Yuyang's sake, gritt your teeth and close your eyes.
Lin Huazhi was amused by Chunbai's last sentence. Does Chunbai look at her like a fish on the chopping board?
After Chunbai's advice, Lin Huazhi felt slightly better. She understood it, but she couldn't adapt for a while. Moreover, Lin Huazhi mainly believes that the reason why she has that kind of bad thoughts is mainly because everything is too unexpected, and she has never liked "unexpected surprises".
Relaxed, Lin Huazhi had the intention to take a good look at the autumn chrysanthemums in this garden at this time. The rare Moju in the north is flourishing in this early winter season. Under the corner to the east is a row of laurel trees. At this time, when the laurel flowers bloom. A cluster of golden flowers, against the large green leaves, fill the whole canopy. From a distance, it looks like a golden pearl. When you see warm gold in such a time, it seems that even your mood will become warm.
Lin Huazhi stood in front of a cluster of begonia flowers and looked at the row of laurel trees from afar and chatted. Miss Wu is introverted and a little shy. She spends most of her time listening to Lin Huazhi, which fits her temperament. If she meets a lady whose purpose is too strong to speak without Lin Yuyang, Lin Huazhi really doesn't know how to deal with it.
The two just said, "The osmanthus leaves a late color, and the curtain shadow is light." When it has always been a good sentence for the girl's love, a faint voice came from the southwest.
As the sound became louder and louder, the young man turned out of the southwest corner gate and was coming to the backyard.
Lin Huazhi also knew that the eldest princess not only invited the ladies in Beijing, but also entertained the princes. What should she say? According to her earliest saying, this tea party is a match.
Lin Huazhi did not feel strange when she saw a man appear in the backyard. However, when she saw Cui Yuan surrounded by everyone in the crowd, she was still stunned.
It has been ten days since they last met. As soon as he saw Cui Yuan, Lin Huazhi couldn't help thinking of the injury she had suffered on Cui Yuan's hand. The place on her neck that had already subsided and seemed to feel itching and pain again, and there seemed to be fire burning in her throat.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked a little strange.
Chunbai coughed gently behind her, as if to remind her of something. Lin Huazhi breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and looked at Chunbai and nodded to indicate that it was okay. She once said that when she saw Cui Yuan, she avoided it.
was about to turn around, but Miss Wu, who was beside her, pulled her and whispered, "Miss Lin, Cui... Is Lord Cui looking at us?" Before the question was finished, Miss Wu's face had already been stained with red clouds.
consciously looking up, it happened to hit Cui Yuan's eyes. Far away, she couldn't understand the dark color of Cui Yuan's eyes, but Lin Huazhi thought that Cui Yuan would definitely understand her eyes, which was by no means a light of kindness.
Ah, she still hates that man.
"Do you dare to ask Miss Lin Huazhilin?" A young man suddenly stepped forward, about five steps away from them, and asked loudly.
Lin Huazhi wanted to leave and turned around, but when she heard someone asking questions behind her, although she was not happy, she could not lose her courtesy. Lin Huazhi had to turn around and said, "Yes, do you dare to ask this gentleman?"
"Miss Lin is well. I'm Wang Ping. I suddenly came forward to talk to you and hope you can forgive me." Wang Ping was like a polite gentleman, and his repeated bows seemed to be annoyed by the one he had just held.
Lin Huazhi smiled. Don't think that she just didn't see it. When Cui Yuan entered the backyard, she was talking intimately with Mr. Wang. Thinking about it, Wang Pingding was with Cui Yuan.
As soon as he talked with Wang Ping, Cui Yuan had come over and stood in front of Lin Huazhi. His eyes circled her face and finally fell on her neck.
Lin Huazhi's dress today was neither high nor low, but when she touched Cui Yuan's cold eyes, she inexplicably felt like she had been broken by a sharp sword, and her thin white neck was completely exposed.
You can't show weakness. Lin Huazhi cheered herself up in her heart and met Cui Yuan's eyes. She also looked at Cui Yuan's face carefully, and finally fixed her eyes on his shoulder.
That day, the bite she bit must not be light!
Thinking of this, Lin Huazhi was suddenly in a good mood and looked up. She clearly conveyed the meaning of her eyes, and then she looked at Cui Yuan and smiled. She exposed her teeth.
Sure enough, as she expected, as soon as Cui Yuan saw her smile, his face became colder and colder, as cold as nine winters, but it was directly cold to death.
"Cui...Hello, Lord Cui!" Miss Wu's timid voice broke the undercurrent between the two.
With no trace of looking back, Lin Huazhi took a step back and gave Miss Wu to her. It seems that this introverted Miss Wu seems to like Cui Yuan very much.
Cui Yuan nodded to Miss Wu, but said to Lin Huazhi, "Miss Lin, congratulations. Your younger brother is outstanding. Now he is at the top of the list. This champion is just around the corner."
Lin Huazhi doesn't like Cui Yuan, but Cui Yuan's words just made her extremely happy. Although she hasn't received any positive news, the words from Cui Yuan must not be wrong. Lin Yuyang didn't let her down and won the first place.
Lin Huazhi rarely smiled a real smile at Cui Yuan and saluted him. She said indifferently, "My brother is just a dead student, which can match the peerless demeanor of Lord Cui in the Golden Hall." Yes, Cui Yuan, a cold-faced man, was also the champion in those years, but from the bottom of his heart, Lin Huazhi still thought that Cui Yuan was not as good as Lin Yuyang's one in ten thousand.
Hearing this, Cui Yuan squeezed his mouth and stared at Lin Huazhi fiercely.
Lin Huazhi was in a good mood, did not care about Cui Yuan, and laughed at Cui Yuan again. At this time, Chunbai suddenly came forward and whispered, "Jingyang Jushi seems to be looking for you."
Lin Huazhi turned her head and saw Du Yinglian walking towards her with a smile on her face. However, when Du Yinglian saw Cui Yuan, she was still stunned.
"Lord Cui is polite." Du Yinglian became a fairy again and solemnly saluted Cui Yuan.
Cui Yuan returned the salute. Before he could speak, Lin Huazhi said, "I have something to ask the priest for advice. I hope the scholar can give me some advice."
Du Yinglian nodded: "Lin Tanyue, please." After saying that, he nodded to Cui Yuan and took Lin Huazhi to the other direction.
Lin Huazhi unkindly left Miss Wu to Cui Yuan.
Walking out of a distance, Du Yinglian saw that no one noticed them, so she excitedly took Lin Huazhi's hand and said, "Lin Huazhi, someone just came to report that Lin Yuyang won the first place."
Although he already knew it, when he heard it again at this time, Lin Huazhi still couldn't hide his excitement and couldn't close his smile.
smiled for a while, and Du Yinglian said, "Yes, why are you with Cui Yuan?"
Lin Huazhi couldn't help staring at Du Yinglian. What is it called together? It's clear that it was accidentally hit or not.
Du Yinglian didn't seem to want to ask anything more, but she turned her head and looked in the direction they just came and said in a low voice, "Lin Huazhi, do you know that Miss Wu is Wu Shanggong's niece?"
Lin Huazhi was shocked. Alas, she really didn't know.
