Chapter 143 Flower Appreciation Session

The Bishui Lake in the back garden of the royal palace was rebuilt by a small natural lake specially included in the scope of the palace when the Qing royal palace was built. Bishui Lake is a real lake, not artificially excavated. Therefore, even after the construction of many craftsmen and the addition of many artificial construction, it is still very natural and wild in terms of lake runoff.

The lotus flowers in Bishui Lake bloom well, but they are just good. Because the lotus flowers in the lake are all ordinary varieties that originally grew naturally in the lake. Fortunately, even if the lotus is white, it will look good as long as it blooms all over the lake. Not to mention that there are not only white flowers in this lake, but also light pink and deep pink... In short, the flowers are lively, which is worthy of the reputation of this lotus appreciation party.

Bishui Pavilion is a two-story building built on the shore of Bishui Lake. There are no compartments upstairs and downstairs, and the layout of the home is used to treat guests at a glance. Under the building in the direction of Bishui Lake, there is a small open place, paved with bluestone, which is very flat.

Several sets of stone tables and stone stools were staggered on this small square. At present, the table is full of snacks and fruits. On the edge of the square is surrounded by plain clothes waiting for people, which is a good place to treat guests.

Most of the girls who came to the meeting today have some thoughts about the prince of Qingwangfu. Whether it is those who are greedy for the romantic beauty of the prince or those who covet the noble reputation of the prince's wife, in short, they turn their minds to show their best side to show people.

Especially, now that the prince's own sister is nearby, the girls are naturally spending their own efforts to win the attention of their future sister-in-law. Therefore, for a moment, Princess Antai surrounded a group of warbler swallows. This flower appreciation party specially held for the son of King Qing let Princess Antai enjoy a beautiful blessing first.

Jiang Ting and Sun Yun stood on the edge of the crowd and watched it happily.

Not only did they have fun. Opposite Bishui Lake, they were hidden in a small pavilion behind a green willow, and three people also watched it happily.

These three people, Jiang Ting and others, are all sons of the Liu family. Liu Ming, Liu Yao, and Prince Liu Yu.

All three of them are martial arts practitioners, and their eyesight is three points stronger than ordinary people. In addition, this clear water lake is not round, but narrow, just like a short-handled jasper Ruyi shape.

The Bishui Pavilion is located in the south of the "Ruyi Handle", and the small building where the three are located is on the north side of the "Ruyi Handle". The distance between the two sides is only a few dozen meters. Just because there are green willows on the other side of the lake, the girls on the other side of the lake can't see anyone peeping at them.

"Mingdi, which one do you like? When I go to say good regards to my grandmother tomorrow, I will talk about it for you. Let's just do the marriage this year. You are not young anymore. Don't grind any more. Get married early. Auntie, because you always don't marry, there are wrinkles between her worried eyebrows. Liu Yu looked at Liu Ming with a smile on his face, with obvious gloating in his eyes, and there was no majesty as the prince should have.

"Your Highness said it lightly, do you think I want to grind and not get married? No, as the prince, you don't think about how to work hard and love the people. What are you doing in our family? Liu Ming tilted his eyes and unconsciously brought out a bit of military ruffian.

After living in the barracks for nearly three years, Liu Ming's nature had already learned from the group of military ruffians, and he also brought a little bit of confusion. Although he will still restrain a little when he goes out, he is still the former prince of Qing who looked gentle. But in front of my brothers, I don't need those virtual ones.

When Liu Yu heard the words, a trace of unnaturalness flashed on his face and said lightly, "Wei is pregnant. Auntie asked me to have a look with you."

Wei is the niece of the Empress. Liu Yu married the crown princess of the Crown Prince in the East Palace last spring.

Liu Ming was stunned and asked bluntly, "What do you mean?"

Liu Yu turned his head and looked at the group of girls across the lake. His eyes fell on one of the white dresses and said, "Grandma said that since Wei is pregnant, I should accept the side concubine."

Liu Ming suddenly realized and nodded: "That's what it is. You are the prince, and you can't live alone with the princess. No, is it possible that you came here today with me... together..."

Liu Yu nodded, with a stronger look of embarrassment and said, "I've always been busy, and I don't have much time to pay attention to the noble girls. My aunt told my grandmother that I would help you choose my daughter-in-law, and my aunt told me to come with her. Don't worry, I will never choose what you like. However, I have an impression of the noble girls. In fact, which one to choose, I have to discuss it in detail with my mother and grandmother afterwards..."

Regardless of Liu Yu's embarrassment, Liu Ming directly raised his hand and pointed to the two girls in white who were watching jokes together and said, "I don't care what you think. You can't choose the one in the white skirt!"

Liu Yu was stunned and slightly nervous, but asked quietly, "Which one?"

Liu Ming's face floated with a faint layer of red, and his tone was extremely resolute: "The one who smiles sweetly, you can't choose her!"

Liu Yu was relieved and smiled, "Well, well, I will definitely not choose her."

Liu Ming glanced at Liu Yao, who had never made a sound from the beginning, and coughed gently twice: "If you can choose the other one, it's better not to choose."

Liu Yu's relieved heart rose again and asked, "Why? Did you like both of them? Brother Ming, Miss Jiang is the favorite of Lord Jiang. I'm afraid he won't let you take her as his concubine, will he?

Liu Ming's eyes swept over Liu Yao again. Seeing that he still didn't seem to care, he couldn't help cursing him in his heart. Then, he said to Liu Yu, "Miss Jiang and Yun... are good sisters. Although she is one year older than Miss Jiang, she has always regarded Miss Jiang as her sister. If you take Miss Jiang as your concubine, she will be unhappy.

Liu Yu was not happy to hear this and refutation: "As a prince, even if I accept Miss Jiang, she is also the prince's side concubine. Why is she a head shorter than her?

Liu Ming snorted coldly and looked at Liu Yu with white eyes and said, "What if you are the prince? Even if it is the prince's side concubine, she is a concubine! One is a wife and the other is a concubine. Do you think it's shorter? Cousin, do you think I'm right?"

Liu Yao's mood changed when Liu Yu recognized Jiang Ting. However, in the past three years, he has encountered many things and suffered many hardships, and he has long learned to be calm.

He turned his head to look at Liu Ming, then at Liu Yu, and smiled calmly, "What my cousin and the prince said are right. In terms of grade, the prince's side concubine and the prince's concubine are equally. Even the two in the future... This palace concubine and the princess are not much different. Therefore, what the prince said makes sense. However, in terms of wives and concubines, concubines are naturally more noble than wives. Among other things, in terms of children, the wife is the legitimate one and the concubine is the commoner. The two brothers naturally understand the division of this concubine. So, in my opinion, my cousin is right.

Liu Ming couldn't help looking at Liu Yao with admiration and said proudly to Liu Yu, "Prince, do you think I'm right?"

Liu Yu took a deep look at Liu Yao, and the irritation on his face only flashed by, and in an instant it turned into an ordinary affinity. He nodded and said, "Well, in terms of common sense, the son of King Jing is right. But don't forget that we are royal. Naturally, the matter of the royal people can't be normal.

Liu Ming was choked by Liu Yu's words, but he had to nod and said, "The prince is right. However, everything we say here is useless. Just as you just said, Miss Jiang is the heart of Lord Jiang. If you want to take her as a concubine, I'm afraid Lord Jiang will not be willing to accept it even if you are the crown prince. After all, Wei is the leader of the East Palace. Not to mention that the Wei family is the legitimate daughter of the Wang clan, and her status is much more valuable than Miss Jiang. Just talk about the queen... Second brother, I think you'd better not think about Miss Jiang. She is also a good sister of Pingning and Antai. Don't hurt her.

Liu Yu's face darkened, and then returned to his original relaxation as usual. He said to Liu Ming, "This is still a shadowy thing. What shall we do here to discuss this? Oh, by the way, the son of King Jing is also 16 years old, and he should be married. Girls below, do you like it? If you like it, I'll talk to my mother and grandmother and ask them to help you set it up.

Liu Yao smiled and thanked Liu Yu respectfully and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, but Yao has no favorite person yet, so I won't bother you."

Liu Yu smiled and nodded, "Well, you are still young, don't worry. Besides, you may return to Lingnan in two years. It's a little inconvenient to get married in the capital.

Liu Yao smiled and looked at Liu Yu's clear and frank eyes: "Your Highness is right. That's what he said."

Liu Ming looked at the harmonious words of the two, and smiled happily, but he scolded Liu Yao in his heart. What on earth is this boy thinking? He could see that the prince had some strange thoughts about the girl of the Jiang family. Why did he still look like he was so innocent?

However, Liu Ming also knew that Liu Yao did nothing wrong at this time. If he really made it clear that he liked the Jiang girl, he would have torn his face with the prince face to face. Therefore, he can't admit anything now.

However, Liu Ming knew that Liu Yao was deeply in love with Jiang Ting. Therefore, seeing that he can still talk and laugh with the prince who coveted his beloved girl at this moment, he couldn't help scolding him and beating him. It's not because he thinks he has done something wrong, but just because he dares not admit his intentions. This is a natural emotion in Liu Ming's heart, which has nothing to do with whether Liu Yao did it correctly.

After all, the prince was different from the two idle people in front of him. After watching and chatting for a while, he had to leave. Now he is not only in charge of the military department, but also takes over the work department. He is very busy.

After Liu Ming and Liu Yao sent the prince downstairs and said goodbye respectfully, both of them couldn't help exhaling a deep breath. Even if the prince is very ordinary, ordinary and popular in front of them... However, he is not an ordinary person after all.

Then, Liu Ming slapped Liu Yao on the head and gritted his teeth and said, "What on earth are you thinking? Even if you can't say it clearly, aren't you afraid to hint? When did you become so afraid of things?

Liu Yao looked at Liu Ming with a wry smile and replied, "Cousin, be gentle. I'm not afraid of trouble, I'm just afraid of causing trouble for her.
