On the morning of the Shangyuan Festival, Zhao Yuanxuan got up very early.

After Zhao Yuanxuan got up, he dressed up first, and regardless of the weather outside, he just put on his own makeup to look the most beautiful first.

Zhao Yuanxuan's maid Xiao Qi was helping beside her, and while watching her county lord dressing herself in the mirror, she thought to herself: "What's wrong with the county lord today?" The first few days were simply freshened up in the morning, but today I was uncharacteristically going to put on so beautiful, is there a guest at home today? ”

"Hey, why don't you go and bring the hairpin to the county lord, the pestle is like a wooden man there, how many times do you want to tell you?" Zhao Yuanxuan was still a little dissatisfied with Xiao Li, who was a little stunned.

"County Lord, do you have anything to do today?" Xiao Qian sent the hairpin flowers that Zhao Yuanxuan wanted, and asked curiously, "Why do you want to dress up so early?" I didn't say before that the county lord was going to enter the palace today! ”

Zhao Yuanxuan turned his head, took the hairpin with one hand, and nodded on Xiao Li's forehead with the other hand, and said, "You little stupid girl, where do you understand this?" Don't you know that today is Shangyuan Festival? The Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival in the capital, I don't know how lively it is, and the bad guy will definitely go today, so I'll pretend to meet him by chance...... Ha, let him see my beautiful appearance, he will definitely feel inferior......"

Xiao Qian has already learned to be smart, and she knows that the "bad guy" Zhao Yuanxuan is Ji Ning.

"County Lord, the slave still doesn't understand your words, Ji Gongzi is a man, and the county lord is a woman, even if Ji Gongzi sees the beautiful appearance of the county lord, he will only admire him, how can he feel inferior?" Xiao Qian tilted her head and thought carefully, and asked.

"Little villain, who said he admired me?" Although Zhao Yuanxuan scolded him, she was very happy in her heart, because she also wanted Ji Ning to remember her most beautiful appearance, and girls always have some beautiful fantasies, they can be in harmony with the people they admire, and in a beautiful environment, they swear to the sea before the moon, and the lantern festival is also the most desirable place for the ancient girl's family.

Zhao Yuanxuan added, "Xiao Li, you quickly bring over a few hairpins from the imperial gift, I want to compare them to see which one is the most beautiful, oh, and also, I want to send someone to Ji Ning's mansion to keep an eye on him, I must grasp his whereabouts, if I don't know where he went, how can I pretend to meet him by chance?" Go, go, go! ”

Zhao Yuanxuan said, with an impatient look on his face, which made Xiao Yuan very depressed.

Xiao Qian was still dissatisfied while doing things according to Zhao Yuanxuan's instructions, and said in his heart: "The county lord must be thinking of spring, it is really spring, but unfortunately Ji Gongzi is not necessarily interested in him, it is said that once he enters the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, women are like this, and men will almost think so." It's a pity that the county lord still thinks that Ji Gongzi will not marry her! ”

Before, Xiao Li was like a little fool, she didn't understand what Zhao Yuanxuan said, but as she grew older, Xiao Yuanxuan's social circle was always more extensive than Zhao Yuanxuan, and Xiao Li's little sister with a maid by her side would tell her some things, and she subtly understood that feelings were not as simple as Zhao Yuanxuan described.

Feelings are a matter of two families, and the most important thing is that the door is right, and only the door is right to have the possibility of going on.

Xiao Qian thought sullenly in her heart: "The county lord still has his own pursuit of eyes, that is, Ji Gongzi, and where is my crush now?" It's really sad! ”

……

……

Zhao Yuanxuan was preparing to attend the Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival at night, and in another palace in the capital, in the Huiwang Mansion, there was also a monarch who was ready to participate.

It is Zhao Yuanying, the lord of Minshan County.

Zhao Yuanying sorted out her clothes first, but she wouldn't dress up carefully, he was going to go to King Hui's mansion in the capital to attend a literary meeting during the day, which was the request of her father and brother.

In order to attract more talents, King Hui's Mansion specially held a lot of literary meetings at the beginning of the year, so that people could come over to express their opinions, as if they were academic seminars, and select some talents from them, so that King Hui could find the goal and envelop them.

In order to better attract talents, King Hui's Mansion specially asked Prince Hui and Lord Min Shan to participate, so that people thought that King Hui would choose a county horse among these scholars, so that more people would come to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, not only would people come to participate, but even some Jinshi would also come to debate at the same time.

Zhao Yuanying had just come out of the house, and before she could get on the sedan chair, she saw a person waiting in the distance, and when she came out, this person pulled his hands out of his sleeves and trotted all the way to this side.

When Zhao Yuanying saw this person, she immediately got into the sedan chair, and she had no intention of giving him face at all.

"The county lord...... It's me, I'm Gu Yuming! "Someone came to report to their home.

In fact, there is no need for Gu Yuming to say it himself, Zhao Yuanying also knows him, because King Hui asked Zhao Yuanying to come out to meet in order to win over Gu Yuming, a "Jiangbei genius" who was in the limelight in Huazong in the capital before, and also mentioned the family affairs between the two, because Zhao Yuanying didn't have much feelings for Gu Yuming, just to complete the confession of her father and brother, so she came out perfunctory.

"Let's go!" Zhao Yuanying didn't want to stay longer, she just gave a word to the palanquin man.

Gu Yuming was about to rush up, but was stopped by the guards of King Hui's Mansion.

The captain of the guard also knew Gu Yuming, and persuaded him: "Gu Gongzi, you are also a decent person, don't embarrass us as subordinates, and please stay away from the county lord!" ”

Gu Yuming said nervously: "This guard brother, I just want to go over and say a few words to the county lord and leave, and I will never disturb the county lord's affairs...... County Lord, I have something to tell you! ”

"What else?" Zhao Yuanying's voice came from the sedan chair.

Gu Yuming stepped forward and said: "County Lord, don't listen to those crazy words outside, I have real talent and real learning, they slandered me, saying that I stole other people's articles, it's ridiculous, my writing has always been very good, if the county lord doesn't believe it, I have written poems here for the county lord to enjoy!" ”

"No need!" Zhao Yuanying's voice in the sedan chair was very indifferent, "Gu Gongzi, you are a talented man in Jiangbei, and your father and brother appreciate you very much, you should show yourself in front of them." Also, your poems should be displayed at a poetry meeting where there are many talents, so that others can see your talent, not let me enjoy it alone! ”

"But...... Princess...... You listen to me......" Gu Yuming also learned that Zhao Yuanying had lost trust in him, and he was worried about being a county horse, so he ran over to explain.

Zhao Yuanying finally said: "Gu Gongzi, today is the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, there will be a lot of poetry meetings in the capital today, when you can perform very well, the county lord will naturally appreciate you, if you don't perform well, then go back to practice more, and strive to have a good score in the exam." That's it, let's go! ”
