Ye Minchun laughed at the side and said: "You are so old, and you are still acting like a coquettish girl! All these sisters who are younger than you are watching." Ye Minchun was wearing a moon-white straight skirt, with beautiful jade hanging from her waist, tall and elegant, and her posture was elegant.

.His smile is warm and contagious, making people's hearts warm.

As soon as he opened his mouth, even his voice was warm and moist, with a special magnetism.

He was like a magnet, easily attracting everyone's attention. Yulan couldn't help but be a little dazzled, thinking that his second cousin was well-deserved, such a person who looked like a beautiful orchid tree was indeed the only person he had ever seen in his life. He couldn't help but sympathize with his concubine.

Ye Minhong, his younger brother, actually has good looks and demeanor, but when compared next to him, he immediately loses all his luster.

Princess Yinyue made a face at her brother. The relationship between the brother and sister was obviously very good. Ye Minchun smiled fondly and asked with concern: "I heard that my grandmother was not well in the morning, and I was worried for a long time, but look at you

You are so energetic, it turns out that you were worried for nothing!"

The old lady smiled and said: "Okay! Everything is okay! Thanks to your seventh sister, you gave me a massage. I feel much more comfortable." She called Yulan over, "...Girl Lan, come and see me soon."

Live with your third aunt and cousins."

Only then did Yulan have the opportunity to make her debut. Under such gaze, she did not have any stage fright, and walked forward generously to meet the princess and her family one by one.

The two families did not have frequent contacts, and Ye Minchun and his sister rarely saw Yulan on weekdays. Ye Minchun took a closer look at her, and felt that Yulan's fresh and graceful style revealed a unique and unique style, which was unexpectedly different from everything else.

I didn't see her, but she looked different among the colorful makeup, so I couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

After all, Yu Lan had worked hard in a fast-paced workplace for many years in her previous life. Although she kept a low profile in the Yang Mansion, her self-confident, self-reliant white-collar aura still made her look a little different.

Yinyue has already taken her hand, with a happy look on her face: "I have heard that my uncle has a beautiful seventh sister in his family. Today, when I saw him, he was indeed well-deserved, and she is so filial. It's strange that my grandmother and eldest aunt are not willing to let her go.

Meet people! Are you afraid that others will miss you and get abducted?" Everyone laughed, and Yinyue laughed again: "I really like this sister, and I can't hide it from you anymore..." and said to Yu Lan again.

: "When you have time, go to the palace and walk around more! We sisters are also very close to each other." There is no air of a princess at all, and it seems that she has no idea that Yulan is a concubine.

The old lady smiled and said: "You are the only monkey who talks a lot!" Yinyue just acted coquettishly and refused to obey.

After laughing for a while, the little girl brought chairs and everyone sat down in order of seniority. When the old lady asked about the apricot blossom banquet, Yuxia immediately rushed to tell her about today's grand occasion. Just now, Yulan became the focus of everyone,

Princess Yinyue looked at her differently again, and Yuxia was very unhappy for a long time.

"...In addition to cousin Yinyue, there is also a princess, two county princes, not counting us, and five grand masters from the pavilion came to two families, including Mr. Liu Ge and Mr. Xie Ge. Not to mention the ministers and ministers of various ministries.

, most of the girls from Da Jiuqing and Xiao Jiuqing's family also came. In addition, there were also girls from the Xu family of the Duke of Shan Guo, girls from the Chang family of the Duke of E, girls from the Feng family of the Duke of Song, girls from the Tang family of the Marquis of Yan'an, and the Marquis of Ji'an.

A girl from the Lu family, a girl from the Zhou family of Jiangxia Hou..."

The old lady nodded repeatedly after hearing this, "Most of the noble ladies from the capital have been gathered together. It can be regarded as a rare gathering..." She glanced at Ye Minchun with a half-smile. The eyes of several girls from the Yang family also fell on Ye Minchun.

Yu Fei and Yu Xia's eyes were particularly burning.

If you can marry such a perfect husband, your life will not be in vain.

Ye Minchun was a little embarrassed. Princess Yanqing organized a Lao Shizi Apricot Blossom Banquet this time and invited most of the noble ladies in the capital. How could he not know the meaning? He is already seventeen years old this year and has arrived.

It's time to get married, but these pampered ladies in the capital...

He glanced at Yulan vaguely. He was wearing a hibiscus-colored spring shirt. It was not edged with gold and silver threads or complicated embroidery. It looked quite plain. His raven hair was pulled up and combed.

A simple snail bun, a begonia hairpin, a pair of south beads hanging from the round and full earlobes, and no other accessories.

Look at the other cousins, who is not wearing red and green, with a head full of pearls and emeralds, and the rain is like a little green among thousands of reds, with a unique charm. I can see that her face is like a flower bud, her hands are like catkins, her skin is like gelatin, and her lips are red.

There was no blush on her face, and there was no makeup on her face. Although she was still a little green, she already had a charming and charming look that was hard to conceal.

Ye Minchun has seen many beautiful girls, but feels that Yulan is different from others. They say that temperament is more important than appearance. Yulan has a special temperament. She sits there with her eyebrows lowered and there is nothing special about her.

His actions attracted people's attention inadvertently. Ye Minchun somehow remembered a poem: Autumn water is the sacred jade for the bones, hibiscus is like the face and willows are like the eyebrows.

You may not think much of her at first glance, but the more you look at her, the more beautiful she becomes. Some people are quite stunning at first glance, but after looking at her for a long time, they will get tired of aesthetics. Yulan is just the opposite. Her beauty is a kind of beauty that flows slowly.

.Especially a pair of eyes that are dark and angry, as clear and translucent as a clear spring, as if you can see straight to the end at a glance. But if you look closely, you will see that the dense eyes contain infinite vicissitudes of life and regret, which makes people feel tight.

There is some dull pain.

Ye Minchun glanced at his younger brother Ye Minhong and found that he was also secretly looking at Yulan.

Yinyue suddenly said: "Everyone went out for an outing to enjoy the flowers, why didn't Sister Du Qi go?" Ye Minchun and Ye Minhong also showed interest.

Yulan's heart was spinning, and she immediately judged that the little princess probably didn't ask this question intentionally to make her look embarrassed, so she smiled nonchalantly and said truthfully: "To be honest with you, cousin, I made a mistake, and my father punished me by grounding me for a day.

Month, so I can’t go out with my sisters, and I still feel deeply regretful to this day! Thanks to my grandmother’s compassion and consideration, she allowed me to come out to meet my third aunt and my cousins.” She smiled as she spoke.

After all, this was not a glorious thing, but Yulan said it openly and openly, in a friendly tone that was neither humble nor arrogant, and without any resentment. Now even Princess Yanqing looked at her with admiration.

Princess Yinyue stood up and said, "Oh my! It's me, Meng Lang!" and apologized to Yu Lan.

Yu Lan stretched out his hand to support her and said with a smile: "He who doesn't know is not guilty. Cousin, don't worry."

At this time, everyone was talking about the poems written by the girls at the party, and the old lady asked: "Whose girl came first?"

Princess Yanqing smiled and said: "The girls nowadays are all full of talent, and the poems they write are almost as good as those noble literati from the Hanlin Academy. I think it is possible to let them take the No. 1 exam. Today's theme is Apricot Blossom.

, the girls have composed several good poems..." He glanced at Yuxia with a smile: "Our sister Xia made a big appearance today, and everyone jointly recommended her and the three sisters from the Hanlin Academy's bachelor's family.

The girl and the best are here."

Yuxia was very proud in her heart, but of course she was modest on the surface: "Third aunt, you are laughing at me too... I don't have any good poems, I just wrote a few lines to suit the scene! You guys are just flattering me!"

The old lady was happy after hearing this and also praised her a few times.

The eighth girl curled her lips with disdain. The eldest lady looked at the eighth girl and felt very unhappy. When the second lady saw it, she applied eye drops: "Sister Xia, please read your poem to the old lady quickly.

, making the elderly happy too.”

The old man and the eldest man were both literary and elegant people, and there was no one who didn't like to compose poetry. In order to win favor, Yuxia put a lot of effort into poetry. She started drafting poems at home early in the morning, and she really showed her face.

After hearing the praises from everyone, Yuxia was so excited that two red clouds rose on her face. "Third aunt and second aunt have praised me! How can my niece catch my grandmother's eye with her little tricks?" She couldn't help but look at Ye Minchun, but she saw a decent smile on his lips.

He smiled and didn't look at himself at all, feeling a little disappointed.

The old lady was very happy after hearing this: "Our family is no better than other families. Your grandfather's poems are popular all over the world, and your father and uncle are also quite famous. Even if they can't take the top prize like men, they can't lose the reputation of their father and ancestors."

."

The eighth girl became more and more angry as she listened, and said with a sarcastic tone: "Who doesn't know that among our group of sisters, the second sister is the best at poetry? If the second sister hadn't hidden it and refused to do it today, how would she have gotten someone else's turn to be in the limelight?"

The girl Yujia is getting married soon. Going out today is to give face to Princess Yanqing. Naturally, she will not compete with the girls who have not yet left the palace to compete for these empty names.

Yujia sat there reservedly, with a cold smile and no intention of getting involved.

The old lady glared at Miss Eight. She had always been afraid of this grandmother, so she shrank her neck in fright and immediately did not dare to speak.

Yuxia finally read out the poem she had written.

Yulan smiled after hearing this. She thought that this was not a good work, but as a woman of her age, it was rare to be able to write a poem like this. It was obvious that she had put in a lot of effort in this area.

At this time, the young masters Chengzu, Chengye, and Chengzong all became interested and started discussing the rhythm and rhyme of poems. After a while, even Ye Minhong joined in. Ye Minchun smiled and said nothing.

Princess Yinyue pouted when she heard this: "You men only like these dry and wet poems! How boring." She turned around and chatted with Yulan about what she had seen outside. Her voice was soft and crisp, and she spoke clearly.

It was vivid and contagious. After a while, Yufei, Yuxin, and Yuqing all joined in.

The second girl, Yujia, was still calm and didn't talk much. Yuxia just rushed to talk to Princess Yinyue, but was ignored by everyone intentionally or unintentionally. After a while, her face became very ugly. Princess Yinyue is very smart, so she can naturally tell the difference.

Knowing, but pretending not to know.

At this time, Chengzong said: "Cousin Chun is extremely smart and has both civil and military skills. Why don't you also write a poem to open the eyes of us brothers and ask grandma to comment on it."

Yinyue heard this and immediately clapped her hands and shouted: "Okay, okay! The title is 'Spring Day', the rhyme limit is fifteen salty, and the second brother is given one stick of incense time. If he can't do it, he will be punished."

Fifteen Salts is a dangerous rhyme that is more difficult than the narrow rhyme, and it only takes one stick of incense. Yin Yue is obviously trying to make things difficult for her brother.

Ye Minchun immediately raised his hands and surrendered: "Good sister, brother, why don't you admit defeat? How can you be like a sister? If you don't help your brother to set up a stage, you will always undermine him!" Even the old lady also supported: "The little girl is too tricky.

!”

Ye Minchun seemed to be in high spirits today, so he smiled and said: "Forget it about writing poems. I heard the prince tell me a couplet earlier. It was a game played by an aide in the East Palace. It was very interesting. I am here to test my brothers and sisters.

Please ask grandma to give us some luck, and if the right one is good, I will reward him, okay?"

The second wife laughed: "It's strange that Brother Daochun thought of such a topic. It turns out he was thinking about your grandmother's good things!"

The old lady smiled after hearing this: "That's very good! Xinghuang, go and get my white jade Ruyi. If the pair is good, I will reward him and play with it." After a while, Ruyi took it and put it on the table.

In the middle, all the boys and girls were gearing up for a while.

The Great Chu valued literature over martial arts. It is said that "the emperor values ​​heroes, all articles are Cao Cao, everything is inferior, only reading is good", "A hundred battles and military achievements are not as good as a beautiful article". Since Taizu, the literary style has been prosperous, and high-ranking families have

Children as young as three years old can also recite a few lines of poetry, and pairing is the most basic of the basics. Therefore, it is natural to bring up such topics at family gatherings.
