When Xie Jingxi heard this, he knew that the Sixth Miss could not follow him to the Flower Banquet. For the feast that the Prince Jin's Wife was holding, there were many wives and grandmothers, and the chances of the daughters being taken out by the mistress being taken in by someone else was very high. Although the Prince Jin's Wife did not go there personally, the Lady Xu could not say anything even if she was brought there.
Xie Jingxi did not say anything and still left the goosebumps. Sixth Miss looked at her sentimentally before lowering her head to sit in front of Auntie Xue. When she returned to her room with Auntie Xue, Sixth Miss was still depressed, "Mother, why can't I go to the banquet?"
Auntie Xue sat on the brick bed, with an expressionless face, "Prince Jin's Wife asked your Third Sister's sister by name to go, I'm afraid that Madame's post is covered in her glory, of course it won't be yours, but Sixth Miss is still young, I will ask Madam to take you out more in the future, there's no rush."
The Sixth Miss said, "The Third Sister sisters have a nice appearance, and even with her identity, I still look up to her. I am jealous of her from the bottom of my heart, but I can't compare to her in the end."
"It's not only you, even your entire family is inferior to her. From now on, it's always right for you to be a bit closer to her."
Sixth Miss looked at Auntie Xue in doubt. She couldn't really understand her mother's words, but she was very willing to help Mother ask her to go with Big Sister Third Sister.
The Prince Jin's Wife's Flower Banquet was set up in a courtyard in the outskirts of the capital. Xie Jingxi dressed early in the morning and accompanied the Lady Xu onto the carriage. At this time, the weather was getting warmer, and the ladies were all wearing light and fresh clothes. From afar, it looked like a hundred flowers were competing with each other.
Last night, when Gu Yun was around, she said: "I really want to see what kind of person he is to be able to take away your Young Master Gu's heart."
The King Jin also added on, "He is not as good as my wangfei after all, but in the capital, he can be considered one of the few.
Gu Yun replied: "It's just an image of a willow tree, don't worry, consort Wang."
The Prince Jin's Wife scoffed, "Isn't she still your wife? She's being too humble on behalf of others. If it really was a willowy appearance, I wouldn't even be able to stand up for her."
Gu Yun cupped his hands, "In my eyes, naturally, no one can compare to me."
When Prince Jin's Wife saw Xie Jingxi, she knew that Gu Yun's words were not empty. Amongst the group of madams, she immediately saw the person following beside Lady Xu. She was already used to seeing things so high up. To be able to enter her eyes, she was definitely not an ordinary person.
The Prince Jin's Wife had never liked to dress in such bright and beautiful attire. With such a simple, elegant and graceful manner, it entered her eyes the most, so much so that whatever she dressed up, was either delicate and beautiful, or even slightly removed from her line of sight.
Xie Jingxi looked at Gu Wan who was waving at her, and the two of them started talking. Gu Wan was wearing a peach-colored dress, it was extremely beautiful, and the two of them were standing together, like a ready-made flower, it was very eye-catching from afar. Most of the wives invited by the Prince Jin's Wife all had a title and title on them. The Lady Xu was naturally busy with greetings, and joked around in the garden until the Prince Jin's Wife came out.
"Everyone, no need to stand on ceremony. Tian'er originally wanted to take advantage of Tian'er's good fortune and have everyone come over here to have a fun time, just playing around." Prince Jin's Wife looked at the crowd and his gaze landed on Xie Jingxi, "Whose lady is that, I've never seen that before."
"That's a Third Miss of the Xie Family." A lady beside Prince Jin's Wife replied.
"That's my daughter. Her name is Princess Hua-Yang." Lady Xu also took a step forward and said.
"Oh, you mean Third Miss who's been raised in front of that old lady? "Come here and let me have a look."
Xie Jingxi was talking with Gu Wan when she was suddenly called out. She was a little suspicious, thinking to herself that she had never interacted with Prince Jin's Wife before, why would she suddenly become interested in her?
Xie Jingxi did not dare to be negligent, and respectfully bowed, "Jingwan greets Prince Jin's Wife."
"Mmm, in the end, did he grow up in Jiangnan, so his aura is definitely extraordinary." The Prince Jin's Wife smiled, "I heard that it was the old lady who personally taught me. What do you do normally?"
As long as it was brought up, the young ladies of the capital would not have any good words to say. As everyone knew, although the Elder Official Xie had the authority to topple the imperial court, their families would not be able to survive, and as the genius of his bloodline would fall, it was only thanks to the Elder Official Xie's own efforts that they were able to attain their current status. The old lady was from the Prominent Class in Jiangnan, but in reality, she was just a country girl who had taken advantage of her son. In the eyes of these people, she wasn't even fit to carry shoes.
Not to mention others, even the Lady Xu looked down on her. After all, her status was right there, and some ideas that had been deeply ingrained in her since she was young were difficult to fuse with. Therefore, when Lady Xu heard Prince Jin's Wife mention this, her face did not look good. That old lady naturally did not teach Third Sister art, which also made her hate him, if elder sister Second Miss was here, she would have full confidence.
However, Xie Jingxi did not mind at all. When the old lady was mentioned, she continued to smile happily, "The Old Ancestor pampered me.
However, Prince Jin's Wife seemed to be suddenly interested, "Oh, it's quite interesting, I usually like to read some miscellaneous books, but if there's anything good in the books, please let me know, I'm really short on them these days."
Xie Jingxi replied, "Yes."
Seeing her obedient and calm demeanor, Prince Jin's Wife also praised her in her heart. Anyone who was able to submit to her was a ruthless person, so she was compatible with the young master of the Gu family. Prince Jin's Wife asked a few more questions, which Xie Jingxi answered one by one. Seeing that the wangfei was satisfied, everyone's thoughts of watching the show failed.
The princess ignored the complaints of the crowd and ordered someone to bring up a few potted plants. Most of the plants were unrecognizable and rare, so the ladies couldn't help but look at each other in dismay. They didn't know what she was thinking.
"A few days ago, King Jin had these pots. I found them fresh and brought them out for all of you to see."
It was the same old lady who had spoken earlier. "It's really rare. I can't tell you anything."
"That's right, that's right. I've really never seen it before." Some of the wives echoed.
Gu Wan spoke softly in front of Xie Jingxi: "That is the wife of the Official of the justice courts, Master Li, she is usually the one who pretends to be the best, causing trouble and causing trouble. The Queen has long annoyed her, and her family is also close to the Master of Qi family.
Xie Jingxi stared at one of the stalks, a hint of doubt flitting past her eyes. She recognized it more than just that in her previous life, she had seen an identical pot in Gu Heng's room.
"I do know a few stalks." A graceful voice rang out, and from the crowd came out a graceful woman with a somewhat bright and beautiful appearance.
Normally, he always has a very high opinion of himself, and does not interact very much with us people. Initially, he had wanted to marry my Second Brother, but after he did not succeed, and now that the matter of you and the Fang family's Second Master happened, he did not have much hope of meeting your Xie Family people. "
In her previous life, Xie Jingxi had heard that when she died, the Marquis Anfeng Palace intentionally took this Fourth Miss of the Fang family as their successor. However, in the end, she was taken by the Xie Family as a successor.
Fang Wanqing had quite a bit of fame in the capital, so even though there had been some incidents recently in the Fang Family, when everyone was afraid that they would run out of time, she still sent a message to the Fang Family.
Fang Wanqing slowly stepped forward and spoke to the few stalks of stalks, "Sorry for being ignorant and ill-informed, but I can only recognise these stalks of stalks.
The Prince Jin's Wife laughed, "It's rare for a late Qing to appear. I wasn't as good as you in the beginning." The wangfei looked towards Xie Jingxi who had been silent all this time, "Can you recognize this scene?"
Xie Jingxi replied, "I am also not very knowledgeable, please enlighten me, esteemed wangfei."
Fang Wanqing had been paying attention to Xie Jingxi's side the entire time, and when he heard her reply, she couldn't help but to heave a sigh of relief.
Xie Jingxi had accompanied these flowers and plants for company in her previous life, so she naturally recognized them as well. It was just that she did not like to show off such insignificant things.
Prince Jin's Wife did not pursue the matter, "It was given to me by His Majesty a few days ago. The crown prince and King Jin got a few pots each, so it's not some rare species.
Everyone gathered around the princess to praise her, but Xie Jingxi was thinking, the His Majesty had only rewarded the crown prince and the King Jin, then where did he get that pot of Gu Heng's? From King Jin to the crown prince, the Marquis Anfeng had always been a part of the emperor. The Marquis Anfeng Palace had flourished for a hundred years, and this had a lot to do with how they never got involved in the war between the two parties. Could it be that Gu Heng was secretly plotting something?
Ah!" "Snakes!" It was unknown who shouted, but Xie Jingwan recovered from her shock. She saw that the group of smiling ladies had all turned to dust in an instant, and they were all frightened out of their wits.
Prince Jin's Wife was still able to sit down and look around the place, and could not help but frown. She had invited today's female guests, so she had already sent some of her female guards to other places, leaving only a few smart and pretty girls in front of her.
This was the outskirts of the city, so the manor which was close to the wilderness, was filled with snakes and bugs. Xie Jingxi could tell with a glance that it was a Sharp Kiss Viper with just one glance, and coincidentally was at Mrs. Li's feet right now, flicking its tongue, eager to give it a try. Mrs. Li was so frightened that she didn't move a muscle. Her face had long since lost the smile that she had on it.
Gu Wan was a bold and loyal man, she was just about to roll up her sleeves and walk forward, but was stopped by Xie Jingxi, "Don't move, that snake is poisonous, it's not something to be trifled with."
