"Oh, the Luo family just finished catching the thief and didn't expect to have the leisure to come to the flower show? I heard that he was kicked into the Haiqing River by a maid in the mansion some time ago. It's so funny. Such a person can still come to the flower show. He is really not afraid of losing face as a noble lady." Liu Bingran, the eldest daughter of the Liu family, shook the round fan in her hand and said sarcastically.
Having arrived early and waited for a long time, Liu Bingran was already bored. When he saw the five golden flowers, he felt like he had finally found something fun.
Luo Meng'er looked at Liu Bingran. Although a lady from a noble family pays attention to etiquette, it doesn't mean she doesn't have a temper. "Are all the people in the Liu Mansion gossipy? Why are you so concerned about such trivial matters in our Luo Mansion? If you hadn't reminded me, Meng'er would have almost forgotten about it! After all, I've been practicing the piano and painting recently, so how could I spend my time on these servants' affairs? It's my sister who has the leisure and elegance to pay attention to different things."
It means that Liu Bingran is becoming more and more idle and gossipy.
"You..." Liu Bingran was furious.
The two sides were arguing with each other. It seemed that even without Yun Miao, the fighting power of the Five Golden Flowers was still very strong.
The flower hall was divided into two smaller areas: one for the noble ladies from the capital, the other for the merchants and prominent families. Although the two areas were only separated by plants and flower racks, the difference in status between the officials and merchants was already evident.
Although there were only a few noble ladies from the capital, the flower hall was filled with a variety of exquisite desserts, delicacies, and teas, each of which was different from the other. Furthermore, each lady was assigned three or four maids to serve her, leaving plenty of space for her to decorate with precious flowers and plants, making it a very comfortable place.
Yun Xian, the leader, looked at the noise coming from the opposite side and raised an eyebrow in disgust: "These vulgar people are not worthy of being on the stage."
But what she was thinking about was her new sister who had just returned to the mansion. Not only had she attracted the attention of everyone in the mansion, but the woman that her mother hated was also coming back.
"That's right, the untouchables are the untouchables. They are petty in nature and only know how to be jealous and compete for beauty." Yan Shasha rarely agreed.
Yun Xian was too lazy to pay attention to her. She had a show to watch. Suddenly, her attention was attracted by a woman in a smoky gray gauze dress who flashed by.
The woman's profile alone was enough to make her stunningly beautiful.
That face in particular made Yun Xian's heart skip a beat. Why did the outline of it feel so familiar to her? But then she thought that since there were so many people in the world who looked alike, it shouldn't be surprising.
But suddenly there was a woman at the banquet who made her feel so threatened, so she immediately asked her trusted maid about it.
"Miss, I heard that it was the miracle doctor invited by the Lady of Imperial Concubine, not the young lady who attended the flower party." The maid said after she came back after inquiring.
"A miracle doctor?" Yun Xian frowned slightly, then understood. "I heard that Madam Gaoming is infertile, a terminal illness. To hire such a young female doctor and dream of bringing her back to life is a joke."
Thinking that this person was not a competitor, he no longer took him to heart.
The woman in the smoky grey gauze dress was Yun Miao. She walked through a screen, carrying a medicinal meal in her hands. She looked at the elegant young woman in front of her and said with a smile, "Madam, it's time to take your medicine."
"During the past two days of treatment by Divine Doctor Yun, the cold feeling in my stomach has indeed been alleviated by a lot. He truly deserves to be called a miracle doctor." Lady Jiang Xianglan took the medicinal food with a smile and spoke kindly.
Yun Miaoqing smiled lightly: "Don't worry, Madam, with me here, everything will be fine."
"Is this medicine really so magical?" a woman next to her asked curiously.
The woman was wearing peach blossom makeup, an elegant and luxurious cloud-sleeved robe, and finger guards. She actually sat down before Jiang, and her noble aura was quite powerful. She glanced at Yun Miao's face, but could not see her expression.
Yun Miao looked him in the eye calmly and said, "If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't dare to make such a promise."
Meng Yuqin looked at Yun Miao and nodded slightly: "This girl is quite good. She is so young, but her medical skills are so advanced."
Jiang Xianglan felt relieved when she heard Yun Miao's confident words. At the same time, she couldn't help but become more enthusiastic towards Yun Miao. "If you can really cure me, there will be a great reward."
"Thank you, Madam." Yun Miao lowered her head and took back the medicinal meal that Jiang Xianglan had finished drinking: "Madam, I will withdraw first."
Jiang Xianglan nodded slightly. She and Meng Yuqin still had something to say.
The two of them could overlook the entire place through the screen, but no one on this side of the hall could notice them from their position.
Jiang Xianglan looked at Meng Yuqin beside her and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, you already have someone in your heart."
She and Meng Yuqin were close friends, so she naturally knew that Meng Yuqin's purpose in coming to the flower fair was to choose a powerful merchant for the second prince to marry.
"Although I have a plan in mind, it all depends on Yuan'er's own preferences." Meng Yuqin did not dare to completely help Mu Linyuan make the decision.
She has always known her son's character.
It is not easy for him to step back and come to the flower show.
Jiang Xianglan said, "I heard that the eldest prince is here today."
In the pavilion not far away.
Several young men in gorgeous clothes were also reciting poems and talking about flowers with wine, enjoying the scene very much.
Mu Yeting waved his folding fan in a dashing manner, "Second brother, you have such a refined taste! If I weren't also interested in this flower show, I would have missed out on so many beautiful ladies, wouldn't I? Look, the young ladies of the Luo Mansion are beautiful and kind-hearted. They are really no worse than those noble ladies in the capital!"
Mu Linyuan drank his wine and glanced at the five young ladies of the Luo family, a flash of sarcasm in his eyes. Then his gaze paused on the inconspicuous "maid" in a smoky gray dress in the corner. "If my royal brother likes you, please choose one and take it back."
Mu Linyuan still remembers clearly what happened on the street that day.
Naturally, I know the true faces of the five young ladies of the Luo family, which are extremely ugly.
Their pavilion is blocked by a rockery and a river, and is also covered by many plantations, so people on the other side of the flower hall cannot notice what is happening inside the pavilion.
Mu Yeting's eyes flickered. "Second brother, you're joking. This flower show was organized by Consort Meng and Lady Gaoming. Their purpose was naturally to choose a good concubine for you. How could it be your turn to interfere? Your Majesty, you only came here after hearing about the excitement in Haicheng. You're not lucky enough to enjoy the beauty!"
But his eyes were looking towards the flower hall.
Everyone knows that His Highness loves beautiful women. Even though he is intelligent and not stupid, he is usually too addicted to wine and women. Otherwise, he would not have caused the Emperor a headache until now and has no real power.
"It has been a custom to hold flower fairs in Haicheng since ancient times. Even without mother's arrangement, this custom would still continue, but now there are more procedures than before. Besides, the flower fair itself is a matchmaking event for talented men and beautiful women, so how could it be a venue for just me? If my royal brother can pick up someone he likes, it will naturally be icing on the cake." Mu Linyuan said lightly.
As expected, Mu Yeting seemed to be waiting for Mu Linyuan to say this.
He immediately approached and said, "Second brother, you have been observing for so long. Which daughter of the Luo family, the Liu family, or the Yang family do you think is more charming?"
