Chapter 269 Sitting

At noon, six round tables were set up in the Zhenguo Public Flower Hall.

It is said that the men's side in the front yard is just big enough for three tables.

Six round tables are lined up in twos, and thirty maids wearing the same emerald green robes are holding ceramic curled palm trays, with porcelain teacups and hot water handkerchiefs placed on them, waiting quietly in groups of five.

At the table.

Lu Shenge and Shen Zhengqing walked slowly. When they entered, Gongsun Wanying had already sat down at an empty table. When she saw Lu Shenge and the others coming over, she hurriedly waved with a smile: "Come here, sit here."

When Lu Shengge and Shen Zhengqing came over, she immediately jumped up, dragged a chair and motioned for Lu Shengge to sit down: "I'll sit with you, okay?"

"What's wrong with this?" Lu Shege looked at Gongsun Wanying with a smile, "It's just convenient for us to talk."

There is something interesting about this girl. She is the best in terms of appearance, character, and family background.

Thinking of the King of Qin who had become so dark and sinister, Lu Shege felt that it was a pity to give such a nice flower to the King of Qin.

Shen Zhengqing saw Gongsun Wanying sitting on the right side of Lu Xiangge, so she also sat on the left side of Lu Xiangge.

"Princess Huaiping, don't you like Mrs. Yongyi Hou?" Before Lu Xiange could answer, Gongsun Wanying continued, "Actually, I don't like it either. She has an empty belly but she pretends to be full of stuff. It's not like that.

Mrs. Zhenguo is refreshing and generous, which makes people like her."

"Shh." Lu Sheige couldn't help but be frightened when he saw her speaking so frankly and boldly, "I don't dare to talk nonsense. If others hear..."

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I won't say anything anymore."

Gongsun Wanying stuck out her tongue guiltily, but there was cunning in her eyes.

Shen Zhengqing was worried that others would hear it, so he didn't know how to talk about his little sister's character in private. Hearing this, he immediately looked around. It may be that Princess Huaiping's fighting power was particularly strong today, but no one from their table has come over yet.

"Why is there no one sitting at this table?"

"Maybe it's because I'm not easy to get along with, so they don't want to sit with me." Gongsun Wanying stuck out her tongue, "Fortunately, my mother didn't come today, otherwise I would have been scolded again."

Shen Zhengqing didn't think much about it when she said it. She didn't expect Gongsun Wanying to speak so directly. She was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

Lu Sheige took the warm handkerchief handed over by the maid, wiped his hands, and said lightly: "It's also possible that the three of us are not getting along well."

Gongsun Wanying glanced at the ladies from various houses who all avoided them and sat down at other tables, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"It seems true. It doesn't matter if they don't come to sit down. It's just the three of us. We can choose what we like to eat without having to compromise with others."

Lu Sheige deliberately lowered his voice and asked, "But if everyone doesn't come to sit, will they arrange for us to sit at the same table as those ladies?"

It's better to sit with people of the same age. At least everyone is of the same age and doesn't need to be restrained.

Gongsun Wanying did not expect this level. She was stunned when she heard this. She quickly stood up and waved to several familiar girls: "Miss Jiang, Qi Yuan, Zhou Yun, Zhou Xia, come and sit."

Jiang Peiting, who had already moved to the table next to her, hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked over and sat down next to Gongsun Wanying.

She asked with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Why did you call me? Aren't you afraid that I would sit next to you and make you unable to eat?"

Jiang Peiting really didn't want to sit at the same table as Gongsun Wanying, especially when the two cousins ​​of Princess Huaiping were sitting at their table.

"No." Gongsun Wanying pointed to the seat next to Shen Zhengqing with a smile and asked the Zhou Yun sisters to sit down. Then she turned around and continued, "Only when you are by my side can I feel motivated to eat. Only if I compete with you can I eat more."

fragrant."

Qi Yuan, who had already sat at the next table with his concubine sister Qi Qing, whispered to Qi Qing and walked over.

Seeing that their table was almost full, they saw a girl with her hair and body decorated with gold ornaments walking over in a skirt. Behind her, followed closely by a girl wearing plain clothes.

When these two people walked together, one was as dazzling as the scorching sun, and the other was as charming as a white lotus.

The girl in gold and silver asked: "Do you still have room at this table?"

Lu Shenge and Shen Zhengqing didn't know the person coming, but they all knew the other girls.

Jiang Peiting saw that the visitor's expression was stagnant, and she was secretly annoyed. If she had known that Miss Zhu wanted to sit at the same table with her, she would not have come over even if Gongsun Wanying dragged her away.

There were not many people sitting at the table to deal with her. This meal was not delicious, and even if it was eaten, it would be difficult to digest later.

Gongsun Wanying didn't say anything. There were just two seats left between Qi Yuan and Zhou Xia. Seeing that everyone was silent, Qi Yuan had to stand up and greet the visitor: "There are just two seats left. Miss Zhu and Miss Liu, please sit down."

"

Unexpectedly, the girl named Zhu was not only ungrateful, but also deliberately pointed at Lu Shengge and Shen Zhengqing and asked, "Can I sit between them? They are the prettiest, and I like to eat with beautiful people."

"

In one sentence, he almost offended most of the people at the table.

If it had been someone else, maybe he would have given in.

But who was Lu Xiuge? She held Shen Zhengqing's hand and smiled politely at Miss Zhu: "Sorry, I want to sit with my sister."

Her smile is more beautiful than a flower.

Everyone thought that Miss Zhu would fall out, but they didn't expect that Lu Xiange's smile made Zhu Chengyun not angry at all.

"Okay, then I'll sit with my cousin, so that my cousin won't be timid and afraid of others."

Liu Wanru, who was said to be timid by Zhu Chengyun, turned red and whispered: "Cousin, I... I can do this alone."

"It's okay." Zhu Chengyun sat down next to Qi Yuan unceremoniously, "Don't go back and complain to your mother again, saying that I won't sit with you even when eating."

It was obvious that just now, she wanted to leave her cousin behind and sit between Lu Shenge and Shen Zhengqing.

Now he looks confident and confident, as if he is sitting in the capital because he wants to take care of his cousin.

"I didn't complain." Liu Wanru sat down aggrievedly and said softly, "I don't know how my aunt knew about it every time. Could it be the maid next to you who said it?"

"My maid won't talk too much." Zhu Chengyun frowned unhappy, "If you do this again, I won't take you with me to any banquet next time."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Wanru immediately stopped talking and just took the handkerchief and rubbed it in her hands, not knowing what to think.

After everyone was seated, Lu Shege looked at the girls at the table with him.

In addition to Gongsun Wanying at the beginning, there are also Jiang Peiting, the daughter of the imperial censor, Zhu Chengyun, the girl from the uncle's palace, Liu Wanru, the cousin of the uncle's palace, Qi Yuan, the legitimate daughter of the minister of rites, Zhou Yun from the mansion of the Marquis of Wu'an, and others.

There is Zhou Xia, a concubine who has three bedrooms.

There are new dignitaries from the imperial court, as well as family members of old ministers from the previous dynasty.

The Queen’s natal family, the Queen Mother’s natal family!

Quite lively!
