Chapter 224 Tea Party or Blind Date?
People who are too eager for success are often more likely to be eager for quick success. The King of Qin felt that this person was impetuous and embarrassing. After a few months, he found a reason and returned him to the Marquis of Jing'an.

Because he was not an important person, Qin Wang only briefly mentioned a few words in front of Changle, expressing his emotion that looking at Beijing, a down-to-earth young man like General Xiao Song is hard to come by. While envious of Song Lian, he also deeply regrets it.

"After being returned, why did he go there? Why hasn't he seen it before?"

Changle peeled a grape and put it in his mouth, slowly wiped the juice left on his fingers with a handkerchief, shook his head and said: "In Dajin, if you can't become a general, you can only be a civil servant, but I heard that he has passed the imperial examination several times. I didn’t pass the exam, and it seems that I ended up working as an aide to some courtier.”

Gu Qingyou thinks about it, the biggest military general in this dynasty is the Southern Qin and Northern Song Dynasty, Song Lian already has Song Hengye, and Ye Xian has been personally denied by the King of Qin, so he basically has no chance to be a general.

"I just said that the way he looked at the princess just now was abnormal. Could it be that he harbored resentment towards Prince Qin's mansion after being returned by the prince?"

Chang Le couldn't help laughing: "But the little staff, what can we do if we are resentful?"

After saying that, she suddenly thought of something, and in an instant, her whole body felt as if she had fallen into a cave of ice. The grape in her hand popped, and the table was squeezed to burst with juice.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing the blood on her face fade away, Gu Qingyou unconsciously swayed, and began to panic: "Princess? Princess, are you alright?"

"I~"

Chang Le's chest heaved violently. Realizing that she had lost her composure, she hurriedly lowered her eyes, not to teach Gu Qingyou to see the surge in her eyes: "It's okay, the palace is too stuffy, and I suddenly feel a little breathless."

Ice basins are placed in every corner of the main hall, exuding a hint of coolness, how can it be stuffy?
It was obvious that Chang Le had something on her mind. The next moment, she got up holding the whip and said, "I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, so I went back first."

"Do you want me to accompany you?"

Chang Le looked extremely pale, and Gu Qingyou was worried that she would leave by herself.

"No, you stay here with Madam."

Princess Qin didn't come today, so Changle didn't intend to stay longer, but came because Meng Guifei's first post just came out of the Leng Palace, and the two mothers refused it together.

In the end, before Changle could say goodbye, Concubine Meng had already got up slowly, Qianqianyu held up the cup in her hand, and said to the audience with a smile: "I have been ill for a long time, and I have held a tea party for the first time in a few months, I would like to thank you all for your kindness. "

It is no secret that she was locked up in the cold palace, but the emperor did not say so, so everyone knows it well, and they will not be so stupid as to expose it on the spot.

Everyone in the palace quieted down after these words, and Chang Le looked awkward standing by herself, but this time she didn't just leave like she did to Concubine Sui before, but hesitated for a moment, and then sat back down again.

Even Changle has to avoid the woman who can't be brought down by witchcraft.

Besides~~~
She took a deep look at a certain figure who looked over from time to time on the opposite side, and clenched her hands under the desk, so that Gu Qingyou didn't even hear her calling a few times.

"Princess, are you really alright?"

Lu Qingyou saw that she was biting her lower lip unconsciously, the already bright red lips were already bleeding, but Chang Le didn't realize it, her beautiful eyes looked at the other side without blinking.

Just because of the obscure eyes, Gu Qingyou couldn't be sure who she was looking at, and the same was true for the few noble men opposite, thinking that Princess Changle and Ye Lan had divorced, and they had other people's ideas, so she couldn't help showing contempt.

"Why hasn't the concubine finished yet?"

Chang Le was immersed in his own thoughts, and didn't hear Gu Qingyou talking to him at all. Seeing Concubine Meng's mouth opening and closing, he couldn't help feeling agitated.

Gu Qingyou raised her head and looked upwards. Concubine Meng took a sip from her wine glass, her smile was gentle and warm, making it impossible to tell that she was someone who had just been locked up in the cold palace for a few months.

"Bengong has been ill for the past few months, and Guanju Palace has also become quite deserted. Fortunately, the emperor was sympathetic and proposed to hold this tea party. So today, apart from the ladies, I specially invited you young people here, just for the sake of It's hilarious."

These words were similar to the opening of Concubine Sui's tea party not long ago. Gu Qingyou felt that it was very boring, but she had to wonder why Concubine Meng brought herself into the palace today.

Sure enough, the next moment, the Lord spoke again.

"Actually speaking, there is another thing to call everyone here today..."

After confirming that everyone's eyes were on her, Concubine Meng coughed lightly, and continued: "Everyone knows that there is a younger brother who is a direct relative in my palace family. , My father was very anxious about this, and wrote to Ben Gong many times, asking Ben Gong to find a woman he likes and start a family as soon as possible."

As soon as this remark came out, many officials and family members who brought their daughters were quite critical. With that being said, could it be that they led their precious daughters into the palace today just to let the noble concubine see his sister-in-law?
Meng Yan's reputation in Beijing is not much better than that of Song Chengye in the past. Except for a few households who wanted to cling to the Meng family, they secretly pushed their daughter forward. selected.

Chang Le couldn't help complaining to Gu Qingyou: "Where is such a big face, even the prince and concubine dare not choose all the civil and military daughters of the court like cabbages. Could it be that Concubine Meng has been imprisoned for too long? Are your brains rusted?"

Gu Qingyou motioned her to keep her voice down, and whispered: "I don't think so, if that's the case, she wouldn't have to invite so many young masters, let's just wait and see."

When Meng Yan married a wife, Princess Changle would not dare to get involved anyway, and it was even more impossible for him, a woman who had divorced him, to be selected, so Gu Qingyou felt relieved for a while, thankful that he came here today just as a foil.

Concubine Meng continued to speak.

"So I thought, instead of getting married blindly, it would be better to take this opportunity to call all the unmarried ladies and gentlemen of Shangjing into the palace, so that everyone can get to know each other better. one piece."

Gu Qingyou and Chang Le looked at each other, Meng Guifei's move really killed many birds with one stone.

It was just using Meng Yan's marriage as a cover to win over various forces.

All the young masters who are here today may not have prospective in-laws who have long been planning to marry in private, but because of Meng Guifei's trick, no matter what the reason for the marriage in the future, she will be able to earn the name of a matchmaker for nothing. It matters.

"Yuyou, can you do me a favor?"

"The princess said it's okay."

"...Oh, forget it."

Chang Le suppressed his depression, took advantage of the time when everyone on the field was chatting freely, and dragged her to the garden: "Let's go outside and relax!"
