Chapter 226: Impression changes
The Empress's palace banquet was mainly held in the Imperial Garden, with Shangguan Yu, Shangguan Qian, Shangguan Ling, Shangguan Huan, Shangguan Chen, as well as their families, as well as the daughters of some ministers. Everyone also wanted to make a good relationship with the royal family with the daughter as a springboard.
Shangguan Yu led Su Muwan into the imperial garden, and Su Xinai walked alone behind them.
The willow tree stretched out its branches of yellow and green tender leaves, gently whirling in the slight spring breeze, like groups of fairies in green dress dancing gracefully.
The peach trees sandwiched between the willows also bloom bright flowers, green willows and red flowers, which are so beautiful! The red kapok flowers, pink peony flowers, and white roses bloom in competition. Some of them have buds all over the branches, some have buds blooming, and some are blooming with their heads raised.
The refreshing fragrance of flowers attracted many little bees, buzzing and singing and dancing.
Imperial Garden is really a good place to compete for beauty, not only those inanimate flowers and plants, but also women in various postures of competing for beauty.
Su Xinai is still the same as before, but this time she dresses a little more charming and enchanting than before. She has a pink tight robe sleeve top, a green scattered flower skirt covering the outside, and a big bow tied with red silk around her waist. A faint rose fragrance came from her side.
Shangguan Huan's dressing this time was not very vulgar. She wore a light pink skirt, but instead showed the shyness of a girl. Since she wore a pearl dress with Su Muwan last time, she looked so beautiful and elegant, she has become more and more fond of such dressing.
Although a simple tulle skirt is not that dazzling, it gives people a sense of being pure and refined, far away from the world. There is a peony with dew on its head, which is more like a beauty from a fairyland. If one part is added, it will be too beautiful, and if one part is reduced, it will be insufficient.
Shangguan Qian felt unbalanced when he saw Shangguan Yu and his two princesses who had their own strengths, but he did not show it. He just said in a joking tone: "The third one is really a blessing, and the two brothers and sisters really have their own strengths."
"The emperor's brother praised it." Shangguan Yu said.
When the Empress saw that everyone was coming, she called everyone to take a seat immediately.
"Ai's family felt relieved when they saw that Yu'er and Mu Wan had such a good relationship." The queen didn't mind adding another fire to Su Xin's head.
Sure enough, Su Xinai's face changed and her handkerchief was almost torn.
"The emperor's brother only has a good relationship with the princess and sister, and his relationship with the concubine is not that good." As soon as Shangguan Chen said, the atmosphere suddenly became suppressed, but Shangguan Chen didn't think there was anything wrong. How could the princess and sister compare with that Su Xinai.
Su Xin's beloved nails were deeply pinching his palms. He must keep it steady. When today passes, I will see how your princess and sister turn over.
Shangguan Huan sneered in his heart. Su Xinai was quite tolerant. He didn't mind adding more fire.
"The third brother likes Xinai very much, otherwise how could he marry her? Shangguan Chen, don't say it if you don't understand." Shangguan Huan seemed to be standing on Su Xinai's side, but he couldn't stop being sarcastic about the distance.
If it weren't for Su Xin's beloved father, why could she become the princess? If this name was missing, Shangguan Yu would probably not even look at her, so how could he become the princess?
"Huan'er, don't say anything more." Su Xinai suppressed her anger.
Seeing that Su Xinai's face turned red and knew that she could no longer stimulate her, she didn't say anything, but held Su Xinai's hand.
At this time, Shangguan Huan's action was the most touching Su Xinai's heart. After all, under such circumstances, no one was on Su Xinai's side.
There was only one episode at the banquet, and it passed quickly.
The queen suggested: "I don't have that much energy either. I've been sleepy recently, so I want to go back to the palace to rest. So I asked Ling'er to preside over me. Don't disturb everyone's interest." As she said that, she let the maid help her leave.
After everyone wanted to salute the queen, Shangguan Ling said: "We brothers haven't had a good gathering recently. Let's see if we can do this. The brothers are just having a good heart in this imperial garden. As for the female family, a boat has been built in the palace recently, so I went to the boat to visit, which can be regarded as a cruise party. What do you think?"
Shangguan Huan said happily: "Yes, I haven't participated in a boat tour for a long time." Anyway, I don't mind watching the fun.
When we arrived at the cruise ship, we saw a very exquisite boat, three stories high, but it did not lose its aura because of its hugeness. The bow of the boat was carved with exquisite dragon heads, and flowers were inserted in each railing, which was really interesting.
"It seems to be a fairy ship sent by the fairy of the Hundred Flowers!" Shaohua, the little girl from Shang Qing of Dali Temple, screamed in surprise.
He really had no knowledge. Although Su Xinai was surprised by the exquisite ship shape in front of him, she did not say it directly like Shaohua. However, the disgusting expression on her face did not disappear or decrease, and the other women also showed mockery on her face, which made Shaohua a little embarrassed and didn't know where to put her hands.
Shaohua's sister, Shaoguang, saw that her sister was excluded by others, held her hands tightly and signaled her to hold back her anger. Before going out, her father told her not to make these people unhappy.
Shaohua naturally understood the intentions of his father and sister. The anger in his heart was a little relieved, and he didn't say anything, but just stood quietly in the crowd.
Seeing Shaohua like this, Su Muwan remembered when she used to be timid and dared not express her thoughts, so she took up Shaohua's words and said, "It's really like the fairy ship sent by the Fairy of Flowers. Let's not beware of seeing the mystery inside.
After saying that, the women also acted according to their expressions, and could not help Princess Yu's face, so they all said to take a look.
Shaohua and Shaoguang looked at Su Muwan gratefully, and Su Muwan just smiled faintly at the two of them, as if saying "It's okay"
A group of people walked towards the cruise ship. When they got on the boat, they could clearly see the girl's family's assignment. Su Muwan, Shangguan Huan and Su Xinai were at the front, and the other female relatives followed them. Su Xinai and Shangguan Huan held hands and were like two good friends. Su Muwan walked slowly alone. Shaoguang and Shaohua also followed her because of Su Muwan's help, but did not come forward and say some pleasing words. The female relatives behind also walked on the cruise ship in groups with their friends.
Seeing that Shaoguang and Shaohua had no intention of climbing, Su Muwan began to appreciate them more and more, and did not climbing rocks because of their rights.
Shangguan Huan saw Su Muwan walking alone, and did not feel embarrassed because no one paid attention to him. He didn't know what was going on, so he began to appreciate Su Muwan's demeanor. He thought that if he hadn't had a quarrel with Su Muwan at that time, perhaps it would not be a bad thing to have a good relationship with her.
He looked at Su Xinai who was holding her. The arrogance on his face was even more powerful than himself. It was something that Su Xinai could never do. She would not add to the insult to the girl. Even if she did not take any harm, it would be the blessing of that girl.
If it weren't for the request of my mother and elder brother, I would never have asked Su Xinai to make a plea for peace again, but in this big dyeing vat, it would probably be impossible if everything could follow my wishes.
Shangguan Huan didn't know when he changed his view of Su Muwan. Perhaps the girls' hatred and liked each other always came inexplicably. She hated Su Muwan, perhaps she envied, envied her beauty and her demeanor.
Shangguan Huan was only concerned about the matter and did not pay attention to his feet. As a result, he stepped on one step less and almost fell down. Su Xinai almost tripped, but Su Xinai was quick-eyed and fast, and held the fence because Shangguan had no railings between Su Xinai and Su Muwan, but Su Xinai shook Shangguan Huan's hand away, so Shangguan Huan almost fell down. However, Su Muwan quickly supported her.
Because of Su Muwan and Su Xinbe's behavior, everyone was a little embarrassed.
Su Xinai quickly took Shangguan Huan's hand and said apologetically to Shangguan Huan: "Huan'er, I let go because I didn't hold the railing firmly. Fortunately, you are fine, otherwise I would have felt guilty."
Shangguan Huan did not answer Su Xin's beloved question, but he walked onto the cruise ship, looked at the exquisite decorations in the cruise ship, and said to everyone: "This cruise ship is so beautiful." Seeing that his words did not work, Su Xin's quickly ran to Shangguan Huan and blamed himself that he had accidentally taken care of himself.
Shangguan Huan smiled at Su Xinai: "I love, why do I blame you? It's because I didn't step on the steps that you almost fell down. It should be that I apologized to you!" After that, he smiled at Su Xinai.
Su Xinai was relieved when she heard Shangguan Huan's words. Fortunately, the big tree was not brought down by herself. After solving the problem of Shangguan Huan, Su Xinai turned her attention to Su Muwan. After all, this banquet was prepared for Su Mu.
When Su Muwan listened to the conversation between Shangguan Huan and Su Xinai, she felt that there must be something wrong with them. How could a person who is so proud of Shangguan Huan show his weakness to Su Xinai repeatedly?
"Sister, everyone has seen the exquisiteness of this boat! We might as well eat some pastries and some beautiful tea, stand on this boat, look up from top to bottom, and the scenery you see is a different taste. Is that good?" Su Xinai asked as if he was pleased.
Su Muwan wanted to see what other tricks she could do, and replied readily: "Then it will follow my sister's wishes."
Because Shangguan Huan, Su Xinai and Su Muwan, the three of them decided to taste tea on the boat and see the scenery, but it was hard for everyone to refuse, so they stopped here.
But Shaohua didn't like this kind of pleasing occasion, so he sneaked away and walked around the boat alone.
