Surprise!!! The Regent Princess is actually a hidden boss
Chapter 55 Spring Banquet
After entering the courtyard, Chu Qianyu was different from Chu Xiaozhu and Chu Yuanshuang. She did not look around curiously. She had been here several times and it was nothing new to her.
He glanced at Chu Xiaozhu's hand on his arm, inadvertently pulled his hand away, took two slow steps and followed them.
Then he asked, "Where do you want to take us, Second Sister?"
Chu Xiaozhu stopped and smiled after hearing this, "Oh, elder sister, you probably don't know, but I did my homework before coming here. Today, we girls entered from the north gate and walked straight forward along the corridor. In front of us is a plum garden, separated by a wall, and on the other side are the nobles of the city. Today, all the literati, officials, princes and marquises are here."
"After the princess and the guild master arrive and finish the ceremony, we can wait in the plum blossom forest for the young men on the other side of the wall to fly their kites in. There will be couplets or poems written on them. If any of us likes one, we can put our hairpins on them. These hairpins will have our names printed on them. After all the kites fly back, someone will count them."
At this point, Chu Xiaozhu paused and looked at the two of them and said, "We have to hurry over to get a good spot so that we can be the first to see the kites flying over the wall. Now I have decided to enter the palace. It's for the sake of my eldest sister and third sister. Why don't you two follow me and take a look."
Chu Yuanshuang's eyes lit up when she heard this and said, "Then let's go take a look, Second Sister."
Chu Qianyu also nodded.
Then the three of them walked quickly towards the plum garden.
Although they arrived early, there were already dozens of young ladies standing here when they arrived.
Seeing the three people coming, a few of them recognized that they were the young ladies of the general's mansion, but their status was not low and they seldom communicated with each other on weekdays, so they just glanced at them lightly and turned their heads to continue chatting.
Only Li Qingle, the daughter of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Ling Yanran, the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhao Wenyan, the daughter of Mr. Zhao, walked towards them and greeted them.
Chu Qianyu seldom left the house before, so these people hardly knew her.
But he was talking to Chu Xiaozhu very happily.
"Oh, Xiaozhu, I haven't seen you for a while. You look very good. Tell me quickly how you did it?" Li Qingle walked up to Chu Xiaozhu and asked.
Chu Xiaozhu glanced at Chu Qianyu and Chu Yuanshuang standing behind him with some pride after hearing this, and then replied leisurely: "My father and grandmother also love me. They sent me some supplements such as bird's nests that they got on weekdays. Now, my complexion has improved naturally after eating more."
After hearing this, Ling Yanran's eyes were full of envy and she said, "Ah, Sister Chu is really lucky. She is loved by her grandmother and father."
Zhao Wenyan looked at the two people behind Chu Xiaozhu and asked, "Who are these two people behind Xiaozhu?"
At this point, Li Qingle and Ling Yanran seemed to have just realized that there were two other people, and then looked towards Chu Qianyu and Chu Yuanshuang.
Chu Xiaozhu pulled Chu Qianyu over and introduced her to the others, "This is my elder sister. She is timid, so she rarely comes out. That's why you may think she is unfamiliar to you."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Chu Yuanshuang behind him and said, "This is my third sister, the daughter of my second uncle. She is also coming out with us this time."
Ling Yanran saw a flash of jealousy in Chu Qianyu's eyes, and then said to Chu Xiaozhu: "Otherwise I would say that Xiaozhu is kind-hearted. Your elder sister looks quite old, and she must have come here to see me today."
Chu Qianyu's eyes drooped when she heard this, and a hint of annoyance appeared on her face. Then she raised her head and said, "Today, several young ladies from wealthy families are here to hang out. Besides, you are a young lady from an official family. Didn't your mother hire a nanny to teach you etiquette? Why do you talk to me so bluntly in public?"
After he finished speaking, he seemed a little angry and said to Chu Xiaozhu: "The princess will probably be here soon. I'll go to the front first. You guys chat."
"You!" Ling Yanran didn't expect Chu Qianyu to confront her so directly, so she wanted to block her way, but she didn't think that if Chu Qianyu was determined to leave here, even Mo Yinan would not be able to stop her, let alone a weak young lady.
I watched Chu Qianyu walk towards the pavilion nearby.
Ling Yanran was so embarrassed that she was actually criticized on the spot. So she looked at Chu Xiaozhu with a bad tone: "Didn't you just say that she is timid and cowardly? Why do I feel that she is very sharp-tongued!"
Chu Xiaozhu was also a little embarrassed at this time, and said to Ling Yanran: "Yanran, I am really sorry. I don't know what happened to my elder sister today. Please don't bother with her."
"Humph!"
Chu Qianyu found an empty pavilion, walked in and sat down.
Looking at Chu Xiaozhu not far away who seemed to be apologizing to Ling Yanran on her behalf, she smiled with disdain. If she guessed correctly, Chu Xiaozhu would definitely bring people here later.
Soon, the servants began to announce that the princess had arrived. Everyone looked in the direction of the princess, and Chu Qianyu also stood up quickly.
Next, the eldest princess presided over the spring wine offering ceremony.
After the ceremony was completed, half an hour had passed.
The eldest princess sat in the pavilion at the top. She was very graceful and elegant. She was wearing a gorgeous palace dress that was tailored to fit her perfectly, which made her look very energetic. She looked at everyone gently and said with a smile, "Today, you don't have to be restrained. If you need anything, you can come to me. Now that I am old, I like to see you kids having fun."
After hearing this, everyone bowed.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and get up. Look! The kites are flying over there. Go and see if there is one you like." The eldest princess looked up and pointed to everyone.
At this moment, the yard suddenly became lively. Several people ran forward, and some even scrambled for a kite.
Chu Qianyu felt very bored, so she sat in her original seat and admired the scenery in the courtyard.
Sure enough, after a while, she saw Chu Xiaozhu and the others walking towards her pavilion. Then she sat down next to Chu Qianyu and said, "Sister, why didn't you go and take a look? Don't forget what grandma said."
After hearing this, Chu Qianyu stood up and said, "If that's the case, I'll go take a look now."
Chu Xiaozhu quickly pulled her back and said, "Big sister, don't be anxious. It's been a while since we had breakfast. I saw that the snacks on the table are very exquisite. Why don't we wait a little longer?"
Ling Yanran was still a little angry at the moment. How could she not ridicule such a good opportunity? So she said sarcastically: "Oh! Your elder sister must be anxious. How can she eat at this moment? In my opinion, Xiaozhu, you should stop trying to persuade her. Just let your elder sister go."
"Oh, Yanran, please stop teasing my elder sister. She is shy to begin with. I have already apologized to you on her behalf. Please give me some face and let this matter go."
"Hmph! I won't say anything for your sake." Ling Yanran rolled her eyes at Chu Qianyu.
