It was already noon, and everyone in the Situ family gathered in the old lady's yard to have lunch. Most of the reason for this was because King Mao came to Pingyang Marquis Mansion as a guest, and the old lady liked this grandson very much, so she put the whole family together.

Everyone in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion gathered together for lunch, but Miss Situ's family did not appear. Shu Junyan

The old lady asked the girls to remove the food from the table and prepare some fresh side dishes for Ruoxi. When Ruoxi came to have lunch, she took them out. Everyone in Pingyang Houli felt very clear. The old lady was very happy.

I am proud of this granddaughter and dote on her very much.

Madam Situ stood up, and Pingyang Hou Situ Yu hurriedly called her: "Madam, what are you going to do?"

Mrs. Situ frowned and said, "Master Marquis, it's already noon, but Ruo Xi hasn't come to the old lady yet. I'm afraid something has happened to her, so I wanted to go over and have a look."

"Madam, this is the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. Besides, the mansion is heavily guarded. Nothing will happen to Ruoxi."

The eldest daughter-in-law Wang and the third daughter-in-law Lu looked at each other and hurried over to persuade Mrs. Situ.

Wang has an oval face and is relatively gentle and graceful. She smiled softly and said: "Mother, my father is right. You should just sit here and wait for Ruoxi to come!"

"Yes, my mother-in-law is right. Not to mention how tight the guards at Pingyang Marquis Mansion are, but how smart our little girl is, nothing will happen to her." Mrs. Lu's smile was as bright as the sun.

Lively and considerate by nature.

Mrs. Situ saw that her two daughters-in-law were so considerate, and she felt very warm. She simply sat down and said calmly: "Then wait for her here a little longer. Then she went to the waiter."

The road to stardom!" It's the family's yang.

Li Mao sat next to the old lady. He lowered his beautiful black pearl eyes. He thought that Ruoxi had misunderstood him as a young master from another family last night, but he did not tell her his true identity.

It made Ruoxi unhappy, so she would not come to the old lady's yard to see him.

When he thought of this, he quickly wanted to stand up and go to Lin Ruoxi's yard to explain to her. But the moment he stood up, a man dressed in white like snow and with a fairy-like face walked out of the old lady's yard.

of beauty.

She was wearing a pleated skirt with a white tube top and waist, and there were handmade pink peonies on her left breast. The peonies were lifelike, and she didn't know what was sprinkled on the flowers, but they were so fragrant and pleasant. Her

A white lace inlaid with ninety-nine white pearls is tied around the waist, and the skirt of the pleated skirt is edged with silver thread coated with pink spice.

Because the spice did not completely coat the silver threads, mottled light spots were exposed, and these light spots on the silver threads glowed like moonlight in the sunlight, making people curious at a glance.

It was so tight that she couldn't move her eyes away. On her wrist, she held a white cloud armband embroidered with peach petals, which gave her a ethereal feeling.

This dress alone is enough to attract the attention of everyone in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, and her appearance is even more stunning, as if she is a fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world.

Even a prince like Li Mao, who had experienced countless beauties, became obsessed with seeing Lin Ruoxi. No matter how many beauties there were in the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, there would never be anyone who could compare to the one in front of him with fresh and bright makeup.

Lin Ruoxi felt refreshed.

Lin Ruoxi slowly walked into their sight and first greeted the old lady.

The old lady was the first to react and said with a cheerful smile: "Let me just say, there are only two most beautiful beauties in our Pingyang Marquis Mansion, and they are the two most beautiful beauties in Southern Xinjiang Kingdom."

Everyone couldn't help but look at the old lady curiously. Lin Ruoxi knew who the old lady wanted to praise, but she pretended not to know and asked: "Old lady, who are these two people?"

"Of course it's what you, Ruoxi, and I, an old woman, looked like when we were young."

If Lin Ruoxi is said to be a beauty from Southern Xinjiang, everyone will believe it if they see it. But when the old lady suddenly mentions her appearance when she was young, these people will look at the old lady inexplicably. Only Situ Yu can't help but smile and say: "My mother was indeed

The most beautiful woman in Southern Xinjiang, I can vouch for this." 16434188

When he said this, the old lady nodded with satisfaction, and made a shy look like a delicate little girl: "I am also very beautiful now, isn't it?" If a person makes these actions when he is old, he will inevitably...

The people who were offended like a child couldn't help but laugh. This old lady is really interesting.

The Pingyang Hou Mansion was bustling with excitement again. It was not until Lin Ruoxi and Li Mao left and sat on the carriage to go to the banquet that the laughter in Pingyang Hou Mansion subsided.

Because Mrs. Situ was worried about Lin Ruoxi going to the banquet held by Princess Lingyun alone outside the palace, she sent Situ Zhan, the fourth son of the Situ family. Situ Zhan was a very good person in ancient times. He got on the carriage and saw Lin Ruoxi and

Li Mao sat across from him with a smile on his face.

But he didn't say much, and he looked obviously embarrassed. He coughed lightly: "It's almost the end of spring, and it's starting to get hot today. Ruoxi, you and cousin Mao Wang are sitting in the car.

, I still feel refreshed all over while riding a horse, but I don’t want to squeeze into a carriage with you."

When Situ Zhan said this, Li Mao felt embarrassed. He was about to get up, but Situ Zhan forced him down on the carriage seat: "Your Highness, King Mao, I have prepared a horse outside for us two grown men to ride on."

Isn’t a horse inappropriate? Besides, it’s stuffy and hot in this carriage, so I’m not going to let you ride the horse!”

After Situ Zhan finished speaking, with a suspicious smile on his handsome face, he turned around, opened the curtain of the carriage and walked out of the carriage.

Both Li Mao and Lin Ruoxi were very clear in their hearts, knowing that Situ Zhan was creating opportunities for them to be alone together. Although Li Mao thought so and was willing to do so, Lin Ruoxi already had Tuoba Tian in her heart.

She was still a little upset that others were building bridges like this.

When Li Mao saw Lin Ruoxi just lowering her beautiful eyes, looking thoughtful, he felt that it would not be good to continue to be embarrassed like this. It was better to untie the knot between them, so that they could face each other calmly and reconcile as before. Read the full text of The Great Master.

He smiled warmly, revealing his white teeth, and he looked elegant and handsome, with unparalleled elegance: "Cousin Ruoxi, what happened last night was all my cousin's fault. If I had warned you earlier, you wouldn't have recognized me as my cousin."

Others." 16xhy.

Lin Ruoxi raised her eyes and smiled at Li Mao, with a smile as warm as the sun: "Cousin King Mao, I blame Ruoxi for playing the piano too much and hurting her body last night, so she lost her composure. Ruoxi here

I also want to express my humility to my cousin."

Seeing that Lin Ruoxi didn't have any past grudges with him, Li Mao smiled heartily and said: "Since cousin Ruoxi is so open-minded, cousin I will naturally not remember what happened yesterday." Li Mao is a smart man.

, he knew that if he kept talking about what happened last night

If something happened, it would bring unhappiness, so he quickly changed the subject and said: "I heard that Princess Lingyun is going to hold a lantern riddle contest in the mansion, but the night has not yet come, and everything is bright. I don't know what Princess Lingyun will do.

Is this lantern riddle contest going to be held properly?"

Lin Ruoxi thought for a while and said with a smile: "She is going to hold a lantern riddle contest in the afternoon. I think she will not choose to be in the room. Although the door of the room is closed and there is no light from the candle, it will be darker, but so many people

With all the distinguished guests gathered together, how big does the room need to be to accommodate so many people? Thinking of this, she will definitely choose to hold a lantern riddle contest in the outer courtyard."

Although Li Mao felt that what Lin Ruoxi said was reasonable, he still had questions: "Then there is still enough sunlight in the afternoon and it is impossible to light the lanterns. Are we just allowed to watch the crossword puzzles on the paper lanterns that are not lit? So that's it.

It’s too boring.”

Lin Ruoxi shook her head and said: "This Princess Lingyun is a well-known woman with both civil and military skills. She must have a good way to give people a refreshing feeling of guessing lantern riddles, right? Cousin Mao Wang, we still don't want to be here.

It’s just a random guess, can you tell if you go and see it?”

Li Mao smiled and nodded, the smile on his lips as warm as the sun.

The Situ family's carriage drove for more than an hour before arriving at the mansion bought by Princess Lingyun outside the palace. Lin Ruoxi and King Mao both got off the carriage. Situ Zhan deliberately bumped Li Mao's arm with his arm and whispered in his ear.

Quietly asked: "How was your chat with my little sister?"

King Mao smiled broadly, but said one word: "Not bad!"

Situ Zhan was secretly happy in his heart, as long as it was good, this talented man, Prince Mao, would be a good destination if his younger sister married him.

Lin Ruoxi and King Mao showed the invitation letters. As soon as the housekeeper in Princess Lingyun's mansion saw these two distinguished guests coming, he hurriedly bowed and invited Lin Ruoxi and King Mao into the mansion with enthusiasm.

As the housekeeper led the way, Lin Ruoxi took a look at the scenery in the princess's mansion. It was indeed fresh and unique, with natural scenery everywhere, especially the rockery and the layout surrounded by water. It looked like a house on the water.

She couldn't help but become a little interested in this Princess Lingyun and wanted to see her face.

The housekeeper led Lin Ruoxi and Li Mao to a wooden shed in the courtyard. There were vines climbing on the wooden shed. It was a fresh green that was comfortable to look at and not dazzling to the eyes.

Under the wooden shed hall, male and female guests took their seats respectively. As soon as Lin Ruoxi walked into the wooden shed, she caught everyone's eyes. Whether it was a rich young lady or a famous young man, they were all deeply admired by her appearance and clothes.

.

It wasn't until Lin Ruoxi took her seat that these wealthy ladies and the noble men began to whisper among each other.

Li Mao sat opposite Lin Ruoxi. He nodded and smiled at her, and Lin Ruoxi gave him a gentle smile in return.

At this moment, a woman in a pink dress and a bright red veil broke into everyone's sight. The woman in a pink dress walked gracefully from the end of the hall to the front, until she passed by Lin Ruoxi.

When she was next to her, the hairpin on her head suddenly fell down and fell on Lin Ruoxi's skirt.
