Chapter 20 The Eldest Princess

There is a hexagonal pavilion in the Peony Garden. Princess Yongping sat down in the pavilion and looked at the girls.

The noble girl standing together in groups of three or three saluted Princess Yongping, with more or less restrained faces on her face.

The noble girls who can stand here have outstanding family backgrounds and have seen many noble people, but Princess Yongping is different.

Princess Yongping is not only the emperor's sister, but also a strange woman who led thousands of troops to quell the rebellion.

Faced with such people, how many of these 14 or 15-year-old girls can be calm?

It is normal to be nervous.

Feng Tao took a deep breath and comforted himself like this.

Princess Yongping slowly swept over these noble girls, smiling lightly: "Don't be reserved, since you're here, have fun in the garden."

Her voice was cold and a bit hoarse, which was completely different from the feeling given by those noble ladies.

However, the atmosphere suddenly became lively after Princess Yongping spoke.

The noble girls enjoy the flowers and joke, relaxed and happy.

In fact, this ease is not really easy, it is just as the eldest princess wishes.

The noble ladies still remember that last year, the third girl from Zhao Shilang's mansion was too trampled to a two-game plant and almost got stung by a bee. She actually got into the eyes of the eldest princess and was given an eight-treasure Ruyi hairpin by the eldest princess.

Not long after the flower viewing banquet, news of Miss Zhao San's engagement came out, which was a very good marriage.

The daughter-in-law was rewarded by Princess Yongping, which was quite respectful in the eyes of her in-laws. The reward from Princess Yongping was also a kind of confidence for women.

Being rewarded by the eldest princess means that the eldest princess is favored by the eldest princess, and if the person favored by the eldest princess is subject to a rumination at her in-laws' house, it will be equivalent to hurting the eldest princess' face.

The eldest princess’ reward, if the family encounters drastic changes, of course, they cannot be used as a command arrow, but it is a talisman for ordinary inner houses to live.

It’s a pity that the girls have no trace of how to get the princess’s eyes, so they can only act based on guessing and luck.

Princess Yongping looked at the girls with sweet smiles and was in a daze.

Girls of this age are really better than the peonies in the garden.

If her Ling'er was still there, she would be so big.

The female official standing on one side sighed when she saw Princess Yongping like this, and said, "Your Highness is missing the little princess again."

The little princess is innocent and cute. She is heartbroken when she thinks of the little princess' disappearance, let alone Your Highness.

It is too cruel for a mother to see no one in life or death.

The distant sound of the piano came.

Princess Yongping looked over casually.

There was a guqin deep in the flowers. A girl in plain clothes was focusing on playing the zither, and a noble girl was playing chess not far away.

After experiencing the previous flower-watching banquet, the noble girls knew that playing the piano would not be favored by the eldest princess. But everyone is of the same age, so why not show their outstanding piano skills on such occasions?

The sound of the piano is leisurely and ethereal, making people immerse themselves in it.

Seeing Princess Yongping listening in a slanted ear, the female official whispered: "The second girl from the Minister of Rites' Mansion is playing the piano."

"Oh." Princess Yongping responded lightly, without saying anything more.

The female official said nothing.

Your Highness is good at martial arts. When he was young, he was not very interested in elegant things like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Now he just listens to it as a pastime.

"Whose child belongs to that child?" Princess Yongping raised her eyebrows slightly.

The female official looked over and saw a girl in pink standing behind a maid, tentatively approaching little by little.

The cautious and hesitant look made people smile.

At this time, Feng Tao was in a high state of tension.

The little girl is lively and straightforward, and she has no idea of ​​flying up to the branch to become a phoenix. She could have been neither humble nor arrogant when facing the people in the Princess's Mansion.

But she has a heavy responsibility.

What if the task assigned by my elder sister messes up?

The pressure of fear of failure made Feng Tao hesitate.

With so many maids, would you choose the wrong person?

Oh, it's so difficult.

The female official looked carefully and did not recognize her: "It should be the first time she has come."

Princess Yongping had a rare slight interest: "It seems like there is something to say to the maid. Cui Gu, go and bring someone."

"Yes." The female official responded and immediately walked towards Feng Tao.

A little girl was embarrassed to find a maid, probably because she wanted to go to the clean room.

But she naturally would not talk too much about the person her Highness wants to meet.

When he got closer, the female official called out "Miss".

Feng Tao saw the female official’s eyes lit up: “You are the female official next to His Highness!”

After observing for a long time, this female official has always been with Princess Yongping and is the most suitable candidate.

I was troubled by being unable to get close to me before, but I didn't expect the other party to come over.

"I wonder which house the girl is from?"

Feng Tao held back and said anxiously: "I am the third girl from the Minister of Rites' Mansion."

The Minister of Rites’ Mansion?

The female official subconsciously glanced at the girl in plain clothes who was playing the piano not far away and said quietly: "Miss Feng San follows me, Your Highness wants to see you."

"Okay." Feng Tao couldn't wait to nod and followed the female official.

The female official secretly missed it.

I always feel that this little girl's reaction is not as flattered as normal.

Feng Tao soon followed the female official into the pavilion and bowed obediently to Princess Yongping.

Princess Yongping did not ask Feng Tao's identity and asked directly: "Did you have something to say to the maid just now?"

She thought the little girl in front of her would either hide it or admit it shyly, but she didn't expect the other party to whisper: "My daughter actually has something to say to you."

Princess Yongping was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "What are you going to say to me?"

Feng Tao bit his lip and pulled out the letter from his sleeve: "My eldest sister asked me to hand it over to His Highness."

"Your elder sister?" Princess Yongping glanced at the female official.

The female official hurriedly whispered: "This is the third girl from the Minister of Rites' Mansion, her eldest sister... she should be Miss Feng who escaped from the kidnapper in the rumor."

Princess Yongping heard the female official's explanation and looked at the letter in the little girl's hand, and her heart was inexplicably moved.

The female official received the instructions from Princess Yongping and took the letter from Feng Tao and submitted it.

The flower paper is only long and light and has almost no weight.

Princess Yongping only glanced at it, supported the stone table with one hand and kept calm, stared at Feng Tao and asked, "Is this really what your elder sister asked you to give me?"

The female official was shocked.

Others may not be able to see it, but she knew that His Highness's reaction had been greatly impacted.

What exactly was written on the letter that made Your Highness feel so fluctuating?

The momentum of Princess Yongping's sudden burst of momentum made Feng Tao feel nervous, and he subconsciously denied it out of the instinct of protecting the elder sister.

Fortunately, she kept Feng Cheng's advice in mind, relieved her nervousness, and nodded obediently.

"Where is Miss Feng?" Princess Yongping asked the female official word by word.

There were gauze tents hanging everywhere in the pavilion, leaving only one side for the princess to watch the noble girls enjoying flowers and playing.

At this time, many people had already discovered that the eldest princess had summoned a girl to ask questions, and they all looked at each other quietly.

The female official whispered: "Report to Your Highness, Miss Feng did not come."
