Chapter 477 Flower Appreciation Banquet
Wen Qingcheng was a little worried. The appearance of this man was too coincidental, and he looked like the young Wen Liang. It was too coincidental. It seemed like a scam tailor-made for Ye Xiuying.
Wen Qingcheng was a little worried that Princess Pingning was mean and unkind, and might not let her mother and brother go. If she was secretly plotting, who knows what the consequences would be.
Wen Liang knew that Ye Xiuying didn't want to see her, so he sent someone to deliver an invitation to Wen Qingcheng, inviting her to go to a mountain villa of Princess Liyang to appreciate flowers in three days. Now it was February, the best time for camellia to bloom. Princess Liyang loved camellia and held a flower-viewing banquet every year. The guests were all the ladies and young ladies of prominent families in Kyoto. The noble ladies and daughters of Kyoto were proud to have participated in the princess's flower-viewing banquet.
Wen Qingcheng didn't want to go, so she asked Dong Yang who came to deliver the letter. "Brother Dong Yang, how many invitations did the Marquis' Mansion receive?"
"There are two in total, one for you and one for Miss Jinqian."
Wen Qingcheng frowned and asked, "Whose idea is this? Princess Pingning is not going?"
"The princess has been there for many years and is too lazy to go. The Marquis wants Miss Qingcheng to go as well, and the princess agrees."
Wen Liang wanted his child to see the world. If she married Mo Jinghong, she would be related to the royal family. There would be many such occasions in the future, so she should get used to them in advance. Wen Qingcheng understood Wen Liang's good intentions, but she still wanted to ask Mo Jinghong's opinion.
"Okay, I received the invitation. Thank you. Come in and have a cup of tea."
"No, the Marquis has arranged other things for me." Dong Yang said goodbye after delivering the invitation.
When Mo Jinghong came over that afternoon, Wen Qingcheng asked about this: "Brother Mo, I received an invitation to the flower viewing banquet from Princess Liyang today. Do you think I should go?"
Mo Jinghong smiled and said, "If you want to go, go ahead. She holds a flower viewing party every year. The camellias planted on the mountain villa are all rare species. You don't usually see them. It's nice to go and have some fun."
Wen Qingcheng was in a good mood. She held her face with both hands, looking longing. "Hey? Then will you go with me?"
"I don't have time recently, and she has invited the wives of princes and ministers. But when I'm done, I'll pick you up as soon as possible." Mo Jinghong reached out and scratched Wen Qingcheng's nose lovingly.
......
Soon it was the day of the flower viewing banquet. Mo Jinghong had someone send a set of fine jade jewelry to Wen Qingcheng several days in advance. She was now the Princess of Qingping County, personally appointed by the Emperor. She could wear expensive jewelry that suited her status and dress more gorgeously.
That morning, Wen Qingcheng changed into a light green shimmering brocade dress. Zhu Ling helped her comb her hair into a beautiful bun, and then she put on the jade hair accessories. In the sunlight, the dress shimmered as she moved, and her made-up skin was fair and translucent, with a milky white glow.
Zhu Ling and Bai Wei looked at each other and said with a smile, "The girl is really like a fairy descending to earth. When we go to appreciate the flowers today, she will definitely be the most beautiful among all the flowers."
"These jade jewelry are too heavy to wear." Wen Qingcheng said, then took off her crown and hairpins, leaving only two small hairpins.
"Isn't this too simple?" Bai Wei said.
"I'm going to appreciate the flowers, not to a beauty pageant. As long as I'm clean and elegant, and dress appropriately for the occasion and not be impolite, that's fine." Wen Qingcheng didn't have any intention of competing with others for beauty; she just wanted to appreciate the flowers in a low-key manner.
This time, Wen Qingcheng only brought Zhu Ling and Ying Ge. Zhu Ling had been to the Marquis' Mansion before and was familiar with some details of the banquet. This was also the first time Wen Qingcheng attended such a banquet. She was afraid of making mistakes and making a fool of herself, so she asked Zhu Ling to follow her and give her advice at any time. Ying Ge changed into women's clothes and pretended to be her maid, staying by her side to protect her safety.
"Bai Wei, I can't bring too many people with me. Let Zhu Ling accompany me this time. When I have more experience, I will take you with me next time if there is a chance."
Bai Wei would not compare herself with Zhu Ling, so she smiled and said, "It just so happens that I have work to do in the He family, so go ahead, young lady. I'll go next time."
"Be good, I'll bring you some delicious food when I come back."
Ye Xiuying knew that the Princess of Liyang was the mother of Princess Pingning, and was a little worried that the Princess would make things difficult for her, so she told Wen Qingcheng to stay out of things and be polite.
Although Mo Jinghong didn't have time to accompany her, he sent A Xuan to drive to the door of Wen Qingcheng's house early in the morning, picked up Wen Qingcheng, Zhu Ling, and Yingge, and went to the villa of Princess Liyang.
Wen Qingcheng got off the carriage. The entrance to the villa was full of luxurious carriages, with drivers sitting in the carriages, waiting outside the villa. Because Ah Falcon still had to go find Mo Jinghong, he drove away first.
As soon as Wen Qingcheng got off the carriage, she noticed a fair-skinned, slender girl getting off a luxurious carriage in front of her. The golden hairpin on her head shone in the sun. Wen Qingcheng recognized it as Ye Jinqian, who was followed by a group of maids. It was a grand ceremony. However, she was not familiar with Ye Jinqian and could not chat with her, so she did not think of saying hello to her.
Ye Jinqian also noticed Wen Qingcheng, but the moment she saw Wen Qingcheng, her face twisted for a moment, but she quickly adjusted her facial expression. "Sister arrived first. Why did you come in such a shabby carriage? If someone saw you, they would think that our mansion couldn't survive anymore."
Mo Jinghong's carriage looked like an ordinary carriage, but it was spacious and luxurious inside. Ye Jinqian only looked at the appearance and thought it was an ordinary carriage. She mocked her in various ways, but Wen Qingcheng did not argue with her.
Wen Qingcheng walked slowly towards Ye Jinqian, who looked arrogant. When passing by Ye Jinqian, Wen Qingcheng walked towards the gate of the villa without looking around.
Ye Jinqian was so angry that she was fuming. Wen Qingcheng actually dared to ignore her! Looking at the backs of Wen Qingcheng and Zhu Ling talking and laughing, she felt suffocated. The maids behind Ye Jinqian knew Zhu Ling. They saw that since she followed Miss Qingcheng, her temperament had changed. The clothes she wore were all made of precious materials, and she had more jewelry. She was very proud and it was said that Miss Qingcheng treated her very well. Several maids of Ye Jinqian envied Zhu Ling, thinking that she had fallen into a blessed nest.
After entering the villa and handing over the invitation, a maid immediately led the way. Walking on the bluestone slabs, there were camellias of various colors planted on both sides of the road. Wen Qingcheng couldn't help but sigh: "The flowers are blooming so beautifully."
The maid who led the way said, "Miss Ye, these are just ordinary mountain teas. We will go to the Jade Tea Garden later. There are many more varieties there."
As they were talking, they came to a river bank where a small boat was parked. The windows of the cabin were all covered with light green gauze. Wen Qingcheng and the others boarded the boat, and the little maid rowed the boat. Soon they saw a sea of camellias on the river bank, reflected in the sparkling green water, as if they had arrived in a fairyland.
