Chapter 50 050 Luck is also a kind of strength. ……
The young princess finally mustered up the courage to talk to the other girls, but was suddenly interrupted by Jia Yuanchun. She felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't let out the anger.
Fortunately, both Feng Jieer and Ulanara were smart people with high IQ and EQ. They smoothed things over in the morning and let the matter go.
Yuanchun was originally very excited to greet the young princess, thinking that it was rare to see such a beautiful lady, so she must seize the opportunity to establish a good relationship with her. However, she did not expect that she was too aggressive and frightened the young lady, and immediately became a little hesitant.
Fortunately, Sister Feng and Ulanara were very helpful and helped her to get back on track. When Yuanchun saw with her own eyes that the little princess's complexion had improved, she finally put her mind at ease.
But after that he didn't dare to say much, which made him seem a bit pitiful.
Xianyu couldn't help feeling some pity when she looked at her.
This girl does have a dignified and elegant look, and her birthday is on the first day of the first lunar month, so she does have some luck.
However, if she really relied on this kind of luck to make her way into the palace, she would probably still end up with a bad ending - in the original novel, she relied on luck to become a virtuous concubine, but ended up dying in the palace, and did not enjoy wealth and glory for long.
For more than ten years, she had been working in the palace as a female historian, and she could not go back home. To put it bluntly, she was a palace maid of a slightly higher rank, and I think she had suffered a lot of torture.
After all, that's the harem, where wars between women are happening all the time. It's not a game of playing house between sisters.
In fact, it is really a mystery how Yuanchun, with her personality and appearance, managed to survive in the palace and last for more than ten years.
It’s not that Yuanchun is not beautiful, but in Master Kang’s eyes, if she is not extremely beautiful, like Concubine De and Concubine Yi, she must have other specialties. For example, Concubine Rong is good at giving birth, and Concubine Hui is good at management…
With average beauty, average talent and average background, there is really nothing special about her.
But even so, she survived for more than ten years by relying on luck. It has to be said that luck is also a kind of strength.
Originally, Xianyu had always thought so, but after seeing Yuanchun's performance today, she had a better understanding.
That is to say, no one can succeed easily.
Yuanchun is not just lucky, she also knows a very important lesson, that is "shut up"... It doesn't matter if you say something wrong, and it doesn't matter if you can't speak, at least you can choose not to speak. It's much better than those stupid people who always have to talk.
Perhaps it was because of this that she was able to gain a foothold in Master Kang's harem - Master Kang still liked this kind of gentle and quiet beauty in his later years.
I heard that Yuanchun's specialty was playing the zither, which is why her personal maid was named Baoqin.
Just imagine that when Master Kang's head was buzzing with the court politics and the struggles among the princes, it would be such a pleasant thing for him to find a quiet corner and listen to a calm, honest and pretty young girl playing a piece of guqin.
Xianyu understood Master Kang instantly. He was indeed worthy of being called an old man. His aesthetic taste was really top-notch.
However, speaking of it, although the Jia family is in the banner, they are just bondservants. Can they participate in the beauty pageant?
Even if I can't participate in the general election, I can at least participate in the minor election, right?
I don't know how Yuanchun entered the palace in the original novel. It seems that she didn't enter through normal channels. Looking at Yuanchun's posture, she must have taken a roundabout way to save the country. Could it be that she got this opportunity by currying favor with Prince Beijing's Mansion, or even through their introduction to the palace to meet the princesses and even the empress dowager?
When you think about it this way, the logic seems to make sense.
Xianyu felt sorry for Yuanchun as she looked at how she was embarrassed and didn't know what to do while still trying hard to fit in.
Fortunately, there were many girls present who could liven up the atmosphere. Feng Jieer came over early, took their hands and led them to join the chat.
On the other side, Ulanara had already coaxed the little princess into submission, and the atmosphere became very harmonious for a while. Princess Beijing also happened to send someone over at this time to invite everyone to take their seats.
All the young girls stood up one after another, and under the guidance of the maids and stewards of Prince Beijing's Mansion, they filed out of the flower hall and went to the garden.
Since it is a flower-viewing banquet, there must be flowers.
So the table was placed in the garden, facing a sea of flowers.
The protagonist of the sea of flowers is a large area of autumn chrysanthemums. They are in various colors and bloom in competition, showing a majestic and frost-resistant momentum. Especially the large golden chrysanthemums, named "Golden Armor", with large flowers and curly petals, which look fierce and aggressive, with a domineering aura of "when my flowers bloom, all other flowers will die".
Although all the girls came from wealthy or noble families, or both, this was the first time they had seen such beautiful chrysanthemums.
The key point is that the Beijing Prince's Mansion is rich and powerful, so they will definitely make the best of everything. If they hold a chrysanthemum appreciation conference, they will definitely want to collect all varieties of chrysanthemums in the world.
The young girls who came to the banquet were all relatively young, and were at the age when they liked to see new things and enjoyed the excitement. They were all very respectful and praised and marveled at the performance, which made the host, Prince Beijing's Mansion, very proud.
Princess Beijing was particularly happy. Her face was full of smiles. She whispered to the Princess Dongping on her left, then whispered a few words to the Princess Nan'an on her right. Occasionally, she would chat and laugh with the other wives of dukes, marquises, and earls at the table. She was truly beaming with joy.
Looking at the noble ladies around her, she saw the eldest lady of the Zhen family whom she met last time on the waterway from Jinling back to the capital, and another one was actually You.
When she saw Xianyu and Fengjie, she smiled and nodded. She looked very rich and relaxed, very different from the nervous and reserved temperament she had the last time she saw them. She seemed to have been reborn. No one knew what had happened to her...
Xianyu was quite curious, but she also knew that now was not a good time to start a conversation. Because there were too many people attending the banquet, there was no chance for her to talk.
There were two tables of people between them, which showed that the girls were not only from the Zhen and Jia families, but also from the Shi family. However, Xianyu was not familiar with their family, and only Yuanchun greeted them because of her relationship with Grandmother Jia.
Their family also brought a little girl with them, but judging by her age, she definitely couldn't be Shi Xiangyun. The female relative who accompanied her was introduced as "Mrs. Baolinghou", so she was probably Shi Xiangyun's cousin.
After taking their seats, it was time to eat and drink as usual.
The banquet at Prince Beijing's residence was different from that at Duke Ning's residence. Even if it was just a small flower-viewing banquet for young girls, it was much more upscale than the Jia family's.
Not to mention the quality of the dishes, even the presentation of the dishes was even more exquisite, and no one could bear to pick up their chopsticks, for fear of ruining these exquisite dishes that were like works of art.
Fortunately, Princess Beijing was a generous person. She told everyone to eat as much as they wanted, and after the meal, each family was given food to take back - this was the meaning of souvenirs.
They are really particular about food. You can even take something away while eating.
Xianyu enjoyed her meal and looked at the flowers with pleasure. After eating and drinking, she couldn't help but start to daydream.
[Speaking of which, San'er! What exactly is the rules for today's flower viewing banquet? Isn't this a blind date banquet in disguise? ]
System 003: Host, seeing through things but not speaking them out is a virtue of a high-quality human being. Do you have to be so direct? Isn't it better to just eat your food and look at the flowers?
Faced with the system that suddenly became a little irritable, Xianyu felt very speechless, but she did not say anything more.
Because at this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the garden, and then a young man in brocade clothes suddenly appeared not far away, bowed to everyone from a distance and said: "Dear guests, I wonder if you are enjoying the flowers today?"
