The Queen Mother invited many noble ladies to a flower-viewing banquet, and her intention was obvious.

There are four adult princes in the palace, and more than a dozen young ones.

Among the four princes of marriageable age, the eldest prince is stupid, the second prince is a dandy, the third prince is moody, and the fourth prince is born lame.

The flower banquet was held at "Jinfangfei" not far from the Sutra Hall. It was prepared several months in advance. Since it was the Queen's banquet, the scale was naturally different. All the guests who came to the banquet were noble ladies from aristocratic families. Even illegitimate girls were rare. Even if there were, they all had a skill that was more or less famous in Kyoto.

The Shangyi Bureau is responsible for hosting banquets in the palace.

Originally, Zhao Fangyu was not named. It was just that the person who was named was unlucky. When he was near the Sutra Hall, he suddenly had a stomachache. In desperation, the Shangyi Bureau hurriedly sent Zhao Fangyu, who was resting in the side room.

The reception was not an important task, it was just that the female gatekeeper would take the distinguished guest from the palace gate to the table, and that was it. The job was not difficult and could not go wrong, the only difficulty was that it required walking back and forth between the two places, which was quite physically demanding.

Zhao Fangyu was in poor health and did not exercise on weekdays, so he carried two small purses with him in advance, one for his daily medicine, and the other for dried meat, rice dumplings, and snacks. This was to prevent him from getting too tired and exhausted and fainting on the palace road, which would be a joke.

Zhang Yingying was quick to get involved in such a grand event. Zhao Fangyu was in the Shangyi Bureau, so naturally there was a list of the Queen's guests for the banquet. She had taken a look and found that Zhang Yingying was not on the list.

So the moment Zhang Yingying appeared on the stage, everyone was shocked!

On her head is a crown of flowers with flowers of the four seasons. Other people's crowns may have some bionic flowers made of cloth and paper, but Zhang Yingying is different. Her crown is made of real fresh flowers of the four seasons!

There were two huge pearl earrings on her ears, a gold pendant with a square ruby on her chest, hanging on a snow-white red flower bodice, a red belt around her waist, and a jacket with a special shape, with a palm-length less cloth on the left and right lapels than others, so that the middle door was open, exposing her chest and the deep ravine that should not be exposed!!!

Such wild behavior made everyone present, from noble ladies to palace maids, speechless.

Even the eldest prince and the third prince, who had been competing for Zhang Yingying's heart these days, looked strange in an instant.

The moment Zhao Fangyu saw Zhang Yingying's clothes clearly, he lowered his head and curled his lips.

The people of Daliang, regardless of their social status, from the emperor's concubines to the common people, all liked to wear jackets, because they were convenient to wear and could be seen in public.

But there is another saying among the people, which is "fuyao".

She had already agreed with Meng Yanzhen that she would talk about her clothes after the banquet started, and the clothing demon would be a handle that was delivered to her door.

The so-called clothing demon refers to strange clothes. Some people blame the clothes for the strange people and things happening around them. For example, if there is no rain this year and the weather is dry, people would blame the clothing demon for causing trouble nearby.

For people like Zhao Fangyu who have been baptized by socialism, they naturally know that these words are all lies, but this is ancient times, and the saying of Fu Yao also existed, but it was not popular. But whether it is true or not, Fu Yao is a dress that is different from ordinary people.

Zhang Yingying's jacket has no buttons and is open in the middle, revealing her fair shoulders and arms when the wind blows...

Even the people in brothels don't wear such clothes.

If there is anyone present who agrees with the idea of subduing the demon, before daybreak tonight, a memorial implicating the Zhang family in poor upbringing should be piled on the emperor's desk.

Zhao Fangyu watched quietly, watching the flowers blooming all around him. After everyone sat down, they pointed at Zhang Yingying, but Zhang Yingying was completely unaware. She felt good about herself and nonchalantly pulled the eldest prince to look at the pot of golden lilies.

The third prince on the left and the eldest prince on the right, the three of them were wearing only four golden belts in total, the scene looked a bit weird no matter how you looked at it.

All the guests were seated, and palace maids from the Department of Rites and Music played music in the middle of the hall. Pots of rare flowers were held in the hands of the palace maids and moved around the girls in a circle before being placed in places prepared in advance, at different heights, each with its own elegant appearance.

The Queen Mother didn't say much, and today the main guests were the princes.

The flower banquet was naturally held in the imperial garden. Several princes happened to see the queen hosting a banquet, so the queen took the opportunity to invite the princes, and they also took the opportunity to sit down.

In front of the heavenly family, no one mentioned the so-called seven-year-old difference in sitting together.

Zhao Fangyu hid in the crowd and looked at the princes carefully.

The eldest prince's attire today was particularly golden, looking even more like a coal boss from the 20th century. He wore a golden hair crown, a robe embroidered with gold thread, a golden ring, and a golden jade pendant.

The second prince was dressed in red from head to toe. He was not yet of age, but he only wore a red jade and gold unicorn hairpin, a red wide-sleeved robe, and even his shoes were red.

The red pepper is not as authentic as the second prince's.

The third prince's blue is bright, the blue of the blue frog is eye-catching.

The eyebrows and eyes of several princes are all good-looking, but the eldest prince is particularly stupid.

The original plot only had time to talk about the love and hatred between the heroine Zhang Yingying and the princes, and in the end it did not say who ascended the throne.

Zhao Fangyu didn't have the patience to read hundreds of thousands of words of "You love me, I don't love you".

Zhao Fangyu couldn't guess and could only try to judge, but after trying again and again, he couldn't see anything from the three gourd brothers.

The three of them are so similar that you can tell at first glance that they are biological children.

Soon, the queen turned the topic to Zhang Yingying and asked her if she had someone she liked.

Everyone's eyes involuntarily fell on Zhang Yingying. Some were curious about whether she liked the eldest prince or the third prince, while others were curious about what had happened to her that she would wear such disgusting clothes.

Zhang Yingying's eyes swept across the faces of the three princes one by one. The people around them looked at her, and exclamations of admiration were heard from the crowd from time to time.

Zhao Fangyu looked at Zhang Yingying, who picked out the second prince from the crowd as if she was picking pork, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

After all, such an unreasonable scene is simply absurd in Daliang.

Boys and girls were not allowed to sit at the same table after the age of seven. Even if they met each other, it was done secretly and privately. The customs were not yet open enough for men and women to be in the same room. It was a group of noble ladies who surrounded the three princes.

There is no cover-up at all. I don't know whether the queen has gone mad or the author has gone crazy to write such an outrageous plot.

A loud sneer came from the crowd. It was the Second Prince: "Miss Zhang, do you really like me?"

Zhang Yingying was as dazzling as a pearl in the crowd. She wore an intricate flower crown on her head and smiled at the Second Prince, showing off her delicate and charming appearance as a little girl to the fullest.

The second prince looked around at his eldest brother and third brother with his starry eyes, then looked at Zhang Yingying with fiery eyes, and was speechless.

He wants to say something but stops, and yet he wants to say something again.

Finally, he kicked the eldest prince and the third prince hard under the table.

The eldest prince and the third prince also looked unhappy.

Who in the capital didn't know that they had never married because of Zhang Yingying? Even the emperor knew that the girl they both loved was the same one.

It was absurd enough that two brothers were fighting over a girl, but who would have thought that in the end, the person Zhang Yingying loved was actually the second prince?

What is this? Is it bad luck for them? Or is it that they are being taken advantage of?

They were like a living green-headed turtle, they couldn't escape from this situation, but they couldn't bring themselves to stay either. It felt like someone was stuffing charcoal into their feet, and the three princes were all very uneasy.

The eldest prince and the third prince were unwilling to stand out, but some of the noble ladies could not stand it. A few days ago, a talent show specially held for the three princes ended in a whimper because of this unexpectedly talented lady Zhang.

Everyone in the capital knew that both princes of the current dynasty were fond of Zhang Yingying. It was not a big deal, as a daughter would be sought after by hundreds of families. However, Zhang Yingying's flirting with the second prince in public really touched the reverse scale of the noble ladies.

What was she going to do? Catching all the adult princes in one fell swoop?

One of the noble ladies came out, pointed at the flower crown on Zhang Yingying's head with a faint smile and said, "I see that the crown on Lady Zhang's head is very exquisite. I wonder where did you find these seasonal flowers?"

"I originally wanted to make a crown of flowers for the whole year, but unfortunately it was hard to find flowers in autumn and winter, so I made this crown."

The noble ladies may not like the prince very much, but they just can't feel a good impression of Zhang Yingying.

They all chimed in and asked her where the wreath on her head came from.

Although it was a question, he was laughing at her in secret, for having the two princes in his control and even finding such rare flowers of the four seasons to make a crown for her, but using them to tease others in public.

Zhang Yingying and several princes were all of marriageable age, and their actions were truly against moral standards.

Zhang Yingying didn't understand the wit in the words, but she knew that these smiles were not well-intentioned. She was not ashamed of this, but proud of it: "Of course it was given by my good friend. Don't you have any friends?"

"As a noble lady from an aristocratic family, you are so fussy about even a crown, and you don't know how to make friends and see the vast world outside. You are like a frog in a well. It's really pathetic!"

"People with a dirty heart see everything as dirty. You have dirty thoughts when you see me wearing a flower crown, which shows that you are not a person with a pure mind."

"I don't want to associate with such a person with impure thoughts!"
