Chapter 49 Shame
Shangguan Xun's birthday seemed to have to invite all the people he hadn't invited in decades before.
Before noon, the long street outside the Prime Minister's Mansion was full of carriages, and they lined up to the adjacent street.
The long street entrance was filled with ordinary people watching the fun. For them, this was a good opportunity to see many big people at once.
"Oh, why is there a road left here?"
Passers-by pointed at a gap that was wide enough to the normal carriage, which extended to the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Even though the carriage beside the crack was almost squeezed into pieces, no one took up the open space.
It seemed like there was an invisible line that isolated everyone from the outside.
"I don't know, there must be some amazing big shot, right?"
"But the one who just passed by wasn't the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue? He was a second-rank official."
“…”
The people next to him were wisely dismissed.
In their eyes, Lord Shangshu is the great man who is in the sky, and it is a little beyond their imagination further.
The crowd rushed into the Prime Minister's Mansion in a constant stream. Fortunately, the open space in front of the Ming Hall was large enough that these people would not even have a place to sit.
Shangguan Xun is the only reef in this flowing crowd. Thanks for the invitation and simple greetings, these things are like fish in water for him, an old fry in the court.
But there were too many people who couldn't stand it. After the past half of the morning, he felt his face almost froze.
In early winter, I was busy and sweating profusely.
"Oh, come."
Taking a break from his busy schedule, Shangguan Xun quickly pulled a servant who was not touching the ground.
"Go and tell the lady that the banquet is ready, and the invited opera troupe will be put in and sing first."
After leaving this sentence in a hurry, Shangguan Xun was immediately surrounded by the crowd.
Shangguan Li looked at him from afar and felt that Shangguan Xun was simply busy becoming a spinning top that was spinning in place.
The difference is that this top still makes you laugh.
She was indescribable to her mood.
Shangguan Li smiled brightly, but unfortunately she didn't wear a veil today. The densely packed black poisonous spots even reflected a faint cold light.
Unspeakable scammer.
She sat in the corner and no one went to the table at that table.
Shangguan Li was also happy to be quiet. Anyway, her purpose was to come out to make Shangguan Xun dilapidated and disgusted with these visitors.
As soon as she sat down, she heard a clear and melodious cry, and she lazily looked up.
It turned out that the opera troupe came on stage, playing the usual "Blessings as the East China Sea". The daughter who sang for her father's search for immortality was a woman dressed in green clothes and graceful figure.
Not to mention anything else, just opening your mouth is a bit like a silence.
Shangguan Li saw that the originally noisy crowd slowly calmed down and looked at the woman on the stage.
"Is this... Miss Miaoqing from Jinghongfang?"
"It's really Miss Miaoqing!"
After a brief silence, there is a more intense noise.
Miaoqing?
Shangguan Li remembered that the top card in Jinghongfang was famous in the capital.
Legend has it that she moves the world with her dancing posture. Everyone who has the honor of seeing her dance is fascinated by the fact that she doesn't know what tonight.
But I heard that Miaoqing did not leave Jinghongfang easily. In the past, many families of aristocratic families were visiting, and wanted to invite Miaoqing to come and cheer him up.
But most of them returned in disappointment.
Miaoqing once said in public.
"Miaoqing dances for fate only. If there is fate, it will be a common bitter and cold family. If there is no fate, the momentum of eating with bells and cauldrons cannot be achieved."
It seems that Shangguan Xun has really invested a lot of money, and even such a person can be invited.
Shangguan Xun himself was immersed in the praises and compliments of everyone for him, and had to face the siege of more people, but everyone's topics changed from congratulations to asking for advice.
It can be said to be painful and happy.
Today Miaoqing did not dance, but sang a play.
But because everyone praised Miaoqing's wonderful voice and amazing face, they didn't care much about the content of the play itself.
Soon, Furu finished singing in Donghai and the actor finished his curtain call on stage.
Amid the crowd of retention and praise, a cold voice suddenly appeared.
"The girl sang a lyric wrongly."
This sounds not loud, but it is particularly stolen because it is too maverick.
Everyone looked at the sound.
I saw a woman sitting on a chair like an old man, throwing oranges into her mouth.
Her black birthmark on her face was so recognizable that everyone immediately recognized it. This was Shangguan Li and Princess Shaoyang.
When Shangguan Xun saw her, the smile on his face suddenly became unrestrained.
"Li'er, you..."
"Even if you are the princess, you can't talk lies with your eyes open, right? We all see it. Miss Miaoqing sang well!"
"Yes, yes!"
"Chief Nanhuai is right!"
“…”
Shangguan Li looked at the first person to speak.
The prince of the Zhong family, the king of Nanhuai, has the same status as Shangguan Li, who is the princess.
Zhong Yu is a standard image of a young man from a noble family. He wears luxurious clothes that expresses the word "high-profile" to the public. Nine out of ten fingers on his hands are wearing valuable gem rings, and none of them are duplicate.
I don't know if his hands are sour or not.
In this kind of weather, a charming peach blossom folding fan is constantly shaking.
It looks inappropriate.
Shangguan Li withdrew her eyes and reached out to pick up another orange, slowly peeling it while talking.
"I wish to devote myself to the rivers and rivers, and to do my best to seek blessings for my father. If I remember correctly, the original sentence is to devote myself to the rivers and seas."
Her voice was faint, as if she was justifying others, but she gave people an unquestionable majesty.
Prince Nanhuai was stunned for a moment and said stubbornly.
"Nonsense, Miss Miaoqing is talking about..."
"The princess is right, it's Miaoqing Buzhou."
A gentle voice intercepted Prince Nan Huai's words. He held a word to his mouth and couldn't say it, making his face look like a pig's liver.
Shangguan Li nodded.
"It's okay, I just saw the girl's voice graceful and perfect. I can't bear to be delayed by this small mistake."
A mistake?
Just one word difference, no one will know if it doesn’t say it out. How can you be considered a mistake? It’s obvious that you have many scandals and are you jealous of Miss Miaoqing?
This idea was passed on in everyone's mind, but no one dared to make it clear.
After all, Shangguan Li is the princess of Shaoyang personally named by the emperor, and the third lady in the prime minister's mansion. Now, it is really hard to blame him on others' territory.
Shangguan Xun, who was taken care of by his face, was not happy at all. Looking at Shangguan Li's indifferent expression, he almost confirmed that Shangguan Li was just coming out to embarrass him.
