Chapter 636 Peony (1)
On the fifth day of May, in front of Danfeng Garden on Changping Street, a red-wheeled cart and two carriages stopped. .
Several maidservants in pink clothes were at the door to receive the guests. When they saw Nangong Yue's Zhu Lun cart and Nangong Mansion's car driver, a maid immediately greeted them, stepped forward and saluted, and then led everyone into the garden.
This year's feast was held in this Danfeng Garden.
It is said that the first owner of Danfeng Garden was Princess Jinglan from the previous dynasty. Princess Jinglan loved peony, so she begged her father to build a peony garden. Gradually, rare peonies from all over the Central Plains gathered here, forming a Today's scale, it is said that there are nearly 5,000 pots of peonies in it.
When the emperor ascended the throne, he changed the name of the Peony Garden to Danfeng Garden, and planted maple trees in it, which belonged to the royal family.
Since the founding of Dayu, only the royal family and nobles have been able to enter the Danfeng Garden, and probably only the status of the Princess Yuncheng can hold a feast in Danfeng Garden.
As soon as you step into Danfeng Garden, it is a rockery made of Taihu Lake stones, with strange rocks.
The maid led Nangong Yue to the flower and tree promenade on the left, and walked along the winding flower and tree promenade for a while. Soon, she smelled the strong fragrance of flowers, which was heartfelt, and looked around. , I saw a hundred flowers in full bloom in the garden, and the flowers were splendid and splendid. This way, you can see that the mountains and stones, the flowers and trees, the water and the pavilion are all ingenious, and everyone is dazzled.
The maid led Nangong Yue and the four to first go to the flower hall in Xiyuan to meet the Princess Yuncheng.
Yun Cheng was combed and combed in a conch bun, wearing a vermilion palace dress, wearing a purple gold three-headed tassel phoenix hairpin, with two white jade peonies pressed on the temples, looking extravagant.
After bowing to the eldest princess Yuncheng, she just got up when she saw a maid hurried in and said, "Your Highness, the third prince and the second princess have come down. I'm going here to greet Your Highness!"
The news of the third prince and the second princess coming to the banquet made everyone's expressions different. Nangong Tsang was surprised, Nangong Lin was delighted, Bai Muxiao was indifferent, and Nangong Yue frowned slightly.
Yun Cheng raised her eyebrows slightly. As the host, she naturally did not welcome such an uninvited guest, but it was a pity that the identities of those two were there and they couldn't rush back. She had no choice but to nod: "Let the second princess come in."
After a while, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl walked in from outside the hall. She wore a short pink leno, with bright eyes and white teeth, looking forward to her appearance, she walked in front of Princess Yuncheng, Yingying bowed: "Haoxue has seen Huang Auntie."
Princess Yuncheng smiled lightly: "Get up."
"Thank you, Aunt Huang."
After the second princess saluted the first princess of Yuncheng, Nangong Yue led Nangong Ting, and Nangong Lin and Bai Muxiao saluted the second princess again: "I have seen the second princess."
The second princess immediately said, "You don't need to be too polite, little sister Yue." That affectionate expression seemed to be like a sister to Nangong Yue.
After that, Yun Cheng gave her a seat, the second princess sat on the left side of Yun Cheng, Nangong Yue was kindly pulled by Yun Cheng to sit next to her, looked at her with a smile and said, "Sister Yue, I haven't seen you for a while. You've grown a lot taller."
Nangong Yue smiled and said, "His Royal Highness, my mother also said the same thing, saying that I am as tall as I can, but not fleshy."
"Don't worry, when you grow up, you'll start to gain weight. In three or four years, maybe you will still despise yourself for being fat." Yun Cheng looked at Nangong Yue lovingly, with a very gentle and intimate smile.
