Chapter 297 Happy Dragon Boat Festival!

Yuan Xiu was about to leave when a crisp voice came from outside the hall and said with a smile, "Xialang, why didn't you tell us when you invited your friends here?" Before Zhang Xian could stop it, she saw a girl wearing a home-style willow green bottom, embroidered double butterflies, wearing a flower Yueluo summer shirt, and a colored skirt, came in with a smile. The girl's eyebrows were somewhat similar to Zhang Xian. She was a little younger. She smiled and her eyes, as if she had met Du Furi. She nodded to him and looked at him. It fell on Yuanxiu.

"Who is this?" Yuan Xiu looked at Zhang Xian, and Zhang Xian quickly introduced, "This is the student's cousin Meng Wuniang, who is the only daughter under her aunt's knees."

Meng Wuniang looked at Yuan Xiu, with a trace of amazing color in her eyes. She covered her sleeves and smiled and said, "What a beautiful woman. Where did you coax such an excellent girl to our house as a guest? It's just that you are too rude. It doesn't matter if you don't go to the main room. Why don't you ask me to welcome you? But do you think my simple appearance has stained the eyes of the guests?

"The five ladies laughed." Yuanxiu grew up in the palace and was used to the curved thoughts, but she was clear about the intention of this Meng Wuniang. She didn't want to make extravagant. She smiled and said, "It's also the first time I met Zhang Jialangjun, but when I came back to your house, I was in the light of Du Shilang!"

When she said this, Zhang Xian's eyes suddenly widened! Immediately turned his head to look at Du Furi. Seeing that Du Furi looked calm, Zhang Xianfu looked at Yuan Xiu, but saw that the two people were calm. Last time, Liu Zhebie, who had led Yuan Xiu into the elegant room where he and Pei Zhuo drank with him, asked about Du Furi's whereabouts. Zhang Xian has always been a gentleman and did not like to measure himself. At this moment, he can't help but have more Think about it.

Only Meng Wuniang was overjoyed when she heard the words. She was one year older than Yuan Xiu. Meng Guangyi has always been clean. There is only Zhang's wife in the house. There is no concubine. The dream of Tang is open. Therefore, although Meng Wuniang is a little careful, she is simple in front of Yuan Xiu. At this moment, she listens from Yuan Xiu to hints that she does not have Zhang Xian. What kind of relationship is it? It is the person brought by Du Furi. Although he tried his best to make a strange appearance, the relieved and secretly happy look fell into everyone's eyes. Zhang Xian coughed helplessly and quickly turned the topic away: "How is your uncle today? We only saw my aunt when we went to the back hall.

"Doctor Geng comes every few days, his father's sex. Son, as long as you can get up, how can you look at the pile of files in front of you? Meng Wuniang originally heard from her servant that Zhang Xian brought a beautiful girl to talk in the hall, and also drove out the maids served in the hall - Zhang Meng's two families originally intended to continue to get married, which is also because Zhang Xian often walked to Meng Guangyi. Zhang Xian has already been crowned with words, and Meng Wuniang has also been married for more than a year. It was supposed to pass the door last year. Who would have thought that Zhang Xian's mother died of illness last year? According to the system, he needed to keep filial piety for three years. Meng Wuniang didn't want this delay. Her good fiance was interfered by others.

She had a straightforward personality. Since she thought of it, she immediately rushed over and planned to face her rival. Who would have thought that Yuanxiu appeared here because of Du Furi. Since Meng Wuniang did not treat her as a rival in love, her attitude was really enthusiastic. Yuan Xiu only said that she was not familiar with Zhang Xian. It was because of Du Furi that she went to the hall to sit down. However, she didn't expect Meng Wuniang to have a good heart for Zhang's dedicated people. She knew that Du Furi was indifferent to receiving things, that is, Zhang Xian and Pei Zhuo, two close friends, and they didn't meet many times, let alone which girl they were familiar with. Now that she took Yuan Xiu to visit her friend's aunt's house, it was obviously extraordinary.

Although Yuan Xiu did not report his identity, his clothes looked like an ordinary girl. Her age matched Du Fu Ri. Meng Wuniang didn't realize that Zhang Xian had turned the topic away. She came forward and took Yuan Xiu's arm affectionately and said with a smile: "This Whose wife is this? Although I dare not say that I have seen Chang'an girls, most of them have always taken pictures of one or two faces. Why have I never seen you?

Yuanxiu hasn't answered yet, but Meng Wuniang has figured it out and covered her smile and said, "Yes, the twelve Lang of the Du family has always lived in a simple way. I also grew up with Xianlang's childhood sweetheart. It can be seen that the twelve Lang is not many times. Since you have made friends with the twelve Lang, you don't like to go out. , it's no wonder that the little lady's temperament and appearance have come out for two more times. I'm afraid her reputation is not below the Cui family's Yao Niang!"

Cui Fengwu and Cui Shu Yao of Qinghe's generation moved Chang'an for their appearance and demeanor, and there were countless people who admired them. At the beginning, when Emperor Xianzong ordered Princess Changyang to order Cui Fengwu Shangchangyang, Chang'an didn't know how many girls were so hateful that they gritted their teeth. I heard that several princesses and county chiefs in the clan were also deeply lost in private. For a while.

Therefore, if an ordinary girl can compare with Cui Shu Yao, it is indeed a compliment. Yuan Xiu's self-respecting identity does not care about Meng Wuniang's words, but she has no intention of revealing her identity and does not say much. She just smiles and says, "The fifth lady's temperament is really cheerful, which is very different from the girl I have seen in the past."

When Meng Wuniang heard the words, "Since you can talk about going with such a quiet and inactive person as Twelve Lang, the people around you are also chronic. Zi, naturally, I feel that I am different from them. In fact, I dream that the Tang Dynasty is open, so why do the girls have to be confined in the boudoir like the previous dynasty? It's time to go out and walk more.

"I also practiced riding and shooting several times before, but I haven't seen the five ladies?" Yuan Xiu turned his head slightly.

"Oh? I said that you are the same as the Wei girl. You have been hiding in the room singing poems and painting all day long. So you have also learned to ride and shoot? I dream of Tang girl, it should be like this, but I underestimated you!" Meng Wuniang nodded and said slightly reservedly, "When it comes to riding and shooting, it's not my boast. Among the girls in Chang'an, only the ten women of the Li family in Zhao County can beat me. They are all trained by my brother since I was a child. I was not in good in my early years. I didn't learn this until I was seven or eight years old. If it was like them Practice earlier. It's not easy to say whether they can beat me. She said here proudly and said, "It's not surprising that you haven't seen me in the original place. My grandmother is now in Dongdu's uncle's house. In the first month, I went to visit her and stayed for a while and came back half a month ago."

When Yuanxiu heard her mention Li Shiniang, she smiled and said, "I have also seen Li Shiniang. Her riding and shooting is indeed very good. However, when the fifth lady was not in Chang'an, I also heard about the horse race between Shengping and Zheng Wei. Although Zheng Wei is Lang Jun, she actually lost to an excellent big horse to the head of Shengping County. , the Li Shiniang you mentioned, can the head of Shengping County also be in it?

Meng Wuniang was about to answer, but she heard Zhang Xian cough a few times. Although she was straightforward, she was not heartless. She couldn't help but be stunned, but Yuan Xiu said faster than her, "Zhang Jialangjun is not in good shape?"

Zhang Xian stopped coughing, but frowned slightly and said, "Wuniang has been accompanying her grandmother from the first month to half a month. I'm afraid it's not clear about the horse racing in Shenheyuan, but the wife asked her but asked the wrong person."

Yuan Xiu didn't want to question himself, but Zhang Xian still replied. Obviously, she was worried that Meng Wuniang would be dragged into the water unconsciously. Originally, she didn't like Zhang Xian because of Zhang Mingzhu. Now when she saw that he did not hesitate to offend herself for Meng Wuniang, she admired Zhang Mingzhu's teaching son, or was a little circuitous. But the wind bone was not bad. He smiled and said, "Zhang Jialangjun misunderstood. I just want to know which one is better, the horseman of Shengping County and Zheng Jialangjun."

"Have you made an appointment with the owner of Shengping County for a horse race?" Meng Wuniang thought she understood, and in turn comforted Zhang Xian, "Although the head of Shengping County is a clan, she is not a person who can't afford to lose. Her riding skills are good, but her archery skills are not very good. Although Pei Si Niang and Jinkang County Owner, who are often with her, are worse than her, their archery skills are all above her, but these three I have made good friends since I was a child, so traveling is almost the same. If you really want to compare, it's really not easy to beat them. With that, Meng Wuniang was surprised and said, "The head of Shengping County actually asked you out, so your riding skills are also good? By the way, whose girl are you?

She didn't remember to ask until this moment. Yuan Xiu said, "My surname is Li, and I'm the 21st in the clan." What she said is 21 according to the ranking of the whole royal family.

Sure enough, Meng Wuniang guessed that Zhaojun Li's family: "So you and Li Shiniang are also of the same clan? Among the girls of the Li family, I am only familiar with her and Li Qiniang. Now neither of them is in Chang'an. Your two cousins have always been lively in Chang'an, but you are very silent.

Yuan Xiufu asked, "As the fifth lady just said, Zheng Weitang's master, is riding not as good as the head of Shengping County?"

Meng Wuniang couldn't help but be a little uneasy to hear her repeatedly raised this question. She said contemptuously, "Mrs. Li, don't blame me for speaking well--" Zhang Xian sighed silently and saw that Du Furi looked calm and had no intention to speak. Her heart moved slightly and simply didn't care about it, so she listened to Meng Wuniang continue to say, "What you said I don't like to listen to what I said. What does it mean that Zheng Wei's riding skills are not as good as the head of Shengping County? What's wrong with our girl? When the Gaozu and Emperor Taizong of this dynasty held an event in Taiyuan, Princess Pingyang and her son-in-law were still in Chang'an. The former Sui wanted to capture them when they heard the news. As a result, the emperor's son-in-law were afraid and left Princess Pingyang to escape alone. On the contrary, Princess Pingyang tied up men's clothes, scattered wealth, gathered soldiers, and became the women's army, and fought everywhere in Guanzhong to open up a foundation for my dream of Tang Dynasty. At least Chai Shao is also eight-foot eyebrows, and he is also one of the 24 founding ministers in Lingyan Pavilion! At this time, it is much worse than Princess Pingyang!"

She said that Princess Zhu Zhao of Pingyang was the only princess buried by military rites in this dynasty. She was the beloved daughter of Emperor Gaozu and Empress Taimu. In the former Sui Dynasty, there was no way. At that time, the world was full of smoke. Gaozu and Taizu of this dynasty were stationed in Taiyuan and also rose up. At that time, the Li family were almost in Chang'an, and the former Sui Dynasty would not let it go. At that time Emperor Gaozu sent a secret envoy to inform the princess and her about this matter secretly. Princess Pingyang's son-in-law was Chai Shao. After hearing the news, he knew that Chang'an could not stay for a long time, but he was worried that it would be difficult to escape, so he showed it to Princess Pingyang. Princess Pingyang had a good temperament. Seeing him say so, she simply agreed to let him leave alone. Kai, Chai Shao pretended to hide alone without nostalgia!

And Princess Pingyang did not sit back and wait for her death. She returned to a village in Po County and scattered all her family assets to gather hundreds of outlaws of outlaws hidden in Zuo Jinshan, so as to rise up and fight against Emperor Gaozu and repel the Chang'an Sui army many times. By the time Emperor Gaozu invaded the Guanzhong, Princess Pingyang had already laid down his father's martial arts, martial arts and equal land. Emperor Gaozu was deeply pleased. After the tripod was settled, he always rewarded the rest of the women.

- At the time when Emperor Gaozu did something, in addition to his second son and later Emperor Taizong, even his eldest son stayed in Chang'an. When Emperor Gaozu's eldest son defected to Taiyuan after receiving a secret letter, in order not to be blocked by the Sui army, Gaozu's young son, several grandchildren and concubines were almost all killed by Sui. Princess Pingyang is really an abnormal number left in the family members of Chang'an.

Yuan Xiu is also a dream Tang Emperor, and naturally admires Princess Pingyang. Now she is not angry when she hears Meng Wuniang refute her. Instead, she nodded with approval: "The fifth lady is very right, but I said it's bad."

"Zheng Wei had been dedicated to the army earlier and spent a lot of effort on the bow horse. It's not bad in Chang'an Langjun. His riding skills should be between Shengping and Shengping. If you want to say who will win, it's difficult to determine which one will win. It's just five or five." Meng Wuniang's straightforward temperament also has a benefit, which is that she doesn't care about it. Although she doesn't seem to think that women are weaker than men in her words, when she sees Yuanxiu admit her mistake, she no longer pursues it, but answers her previous questions.

Yuan Xiu squeezed her lips, but her earlier guess was confirmed...

Zhang Xian knew that Yuanxiu had now received Fengchun and asked her to thoroughly investigate Zhao Fangyi and Zheng Meiren's misconduct. Although he did not know that when Yuanxiu suddenly mentioned Shenhe original horse racing, Zheng Wei and Zheng Meiren were of the same clan. The matter in the palace has always been unknown. He didn't want Meng Wuniang to be involved. For a moment, he regretted that in order to give Meng Guangyi summoned and chose to receive Yuan Xiu in the hall.

At this moment, Yuanxiu listened to Meng Wuniang's answer and seemed to be silent and thoughtful, so he secretly wink at Du Furi. Du Furi stood up and said goodbye.

Meng Wuniang said strangely, "It's noon now. I just heard that there are new guests. When I came here, I ordered the kitchen to prepare more wine and dishes. Why do I have to leave at this time?"

"The Fifth Lady should not have resigned from such kindness, but we have made an appointment with someone." Du Furi said and looked at Yuan Xiu with a smile. Yuan Xiu was stunned. Meng Wuniang had suddenly realized and covered her smile and said, "So it is! In this way, if I want to stay with customers again, I don't know what to do!"

Zhang Xian smiled bitterly. Yuan Xiu looked at Meng Wuniang's attitude and immediately turned around. He was still leaving her down for dinner, but now he couldn't wait to push her out of the door with Du Furi. Naturally, he understood that Du Furi was overshadowed herself once. She smiled and looked at Du Furi meaningfully and said, "If Shilang didn't mention it, I almost I forgot... In that case, let's go!"

She deliberately bites the word "us". Meng Wuniang believed in her heart that this was the intention between the two. The so-called appointment with others is probably because they want to get along with each other in private. Although she has mother's filial piety, she has not yet passed the door, but she has already regarded herself as Zhang Xian's wife. Since Du Furi is Zhang Xian's friend, Meng Wu Niang naturally regarded him as an uncle. Seeing this, how can there be no reason not to help beat the edge drum? At present, she even avoided seeing off guests, and stopped Zhang Xian, who wanted to see her off, and said solemnly to Du Furi, "Twelve Lang hasn't come here once or twice. I remember that my mother's side is a little inappropriate. I'm afraid that Xianlang and I will go and have a look immediately. Mrs. Li will bother to ask you to see you off, and you will also be on your way."

When Zhang Xian saw that she wanted to have a relationship with Princess Yuanxiu so blatantly, Zhang Xian couldn't help but scold her, "How can you be such a master? This is not Du Mansion!"

Meng Wuniang is straightforward and dares to meet her rivals. How could she be scolded so much? At that time, she sneered at each other: "You always said that Twelve Lang is in love with your brother. He is not the first to come back from the Beijing Zhao Mansion. What's wrong with sending a gift to the Li family?"

Zhang Xian was always dignified and couldn't help pumping the corners of his mouth. Meng Wuniang still refused to stop and hummed coldly, "A nerd who doesn't understand the amorous feelings! You are stupid, but don't call Twelve Lang the same as you!" The voice of what she said was not small. Although it could not be heard in the hall, these people in the hall could hear it clearly. Huo Wei and Yu Wenrong looked at each other and were a little speechless.

Yuan Xiu suppressed a smile and said to her, "Although Zhang Jialangjun is more loyal, I think the fifth lady is smart, which is just right."

Meng Wuniang didn't come out of the cabinet, and her face blushed slightly in front of Zhang Xian, but she said anly, "The people who sent you have got up. Why don't you go quickly?"
