Luoyang Brocade Chapter 286: Oiran (2)


Everyone’s eyes fell on Ling Jingshu.

Ling Jingshu unhurriedly lifted the veil and said, "Your Majesty and ladies, please appreciate this pot of Luoyang Brocade."

The huge milky white and pink flowers were revealed in front of everyone's eyes, and everyone was amazed: "It turned out to be a multi-colored peony."

"This pot of peonies blooms so big and beautiful!"

"Yes, I have seen multi-colored peonies, but I have never seen such a big flower!"

"This aroma is also very special. You can still faintly smell it from so far away!"

A hint of jealousy flashed in Wang Meiren's eyes.

As soon as this pot of Luoyang brocade appeared, it immediately surpassed her Lantian jade.

The peonies are blooming in a variety of ways, and the quiet and beautiful trees stand tall and graceful. Their delicate faces complement the peonies, making people more delicate than the flowers.

This Ling Jingshu stole the show at today's flower viewing party. Humph, it was obviously done on purpose, trying to take the opportunity to attract the emperor's attention!

Amidst the praise from everyone, Queen Xu also relaxed her brows, raised her lips and smiled: "This pot of peonies blooms well, and the name is also very nice. Luoyang Brocade means the prosperity and beauty of Luoyang in the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Okay!" The emperor said hello first, with a flash of light in his eyes: "In my opinion, today's oiran must be this pot of Luoyang Brocade. What do you think, dear concubines?"

Wei Jieyu was the first to smile and echo: "What the emperor said is absolutely true. I am a concubine who has a good style and literature, and w○ww.cf↙wx.ne∷t also thinks that Luoyang Jinyan is beautiful. Outstanding among all women, she can be called an oiran."

The other concubines were not to be outdone and opened their mouths to agree.

Queen Xu was quite proud and glanced at Beauty Wang intentionally or unintentionally: "Beauty Wang, your Lantian Jade lost to my Luoyang Brocade, are you convinced?"

Wang Meiren gritted her teeth secretly and forced a smile on her face: "The Queen is like the bright moon in the sky, how can I dare to compete with the Queen? If I lose to the Queen, I am convinced!"

After a pause, he said pointedly: "Since this Luoyang brocade was planted by Ling Nu, I should also record a meritorious service for Ling Nu. Today, the Empress should be heavily rewarded. Wei Jieyu, Are you saying yes or no?"

Wei Jieyu smiled.

Wang Meiren’s last words were clearly sinister and malicious.

Wei Jieyu was once a palace maid next to Queen Xu, and was later favored by the emperor to sleep with her, which led to her subsequent prosperity and wealth. Beauty Wang deliberately compared Ling Jingshu and Wei Jieyu, and her intention is self-evident.

None of the concubines and female officers and chamberlains present was stupid. Who can't hear it?

Ling Jingshu frowned slightly. However, it was not her turn to speak on this occasion. She must not open her mouth, lest she really attract the emperor's attention.

Wei Jieyu quickly returned to normal, and said with a faint smile: "If Miss Ling planted such a good peony, the Queen will be rewarded. I won't bother you and I to worry about these small things! Sister Wang has With such free time, it is better to move the Lantian jade back, water it more, loosen the soil, and take good care of it. It doesn’t matter if you lose this year, you can compete for the oiran again next year."

Wang Meiren: "..."

Wang Meiren was ridiculed openly and covertly, her face turned red and white, which was very exciting.

On weekdays, Wei Jieyu seems to have a gentle temper and is the most talkative, but I never expected that she can be so sharp-tongued!

Queen Xu smiled and smoothed things over: "After we have decided on the oiran, you will follow me back to Jiaofang Hall for lunch!"

Everyone agreed in unison.

Empress Xu looked at the emperor and said in a rather charming voice: "Your Majesty, would you like to go to Jiaofang Hall and have lunch with your concubines and sisters?"

The emperor smiled happily and said: "The queen personally invited me, so there is no reason for me not to go."

……

Ling Jingshu and Ruilian each carried peonies back to Jiaofang Hall.

The pot of fragrant jade and several other pots of peonies were placed in the main hall, but the pot of Luoyang brocade was carefully placed in Queen Xu's bedroom.

After finishing all this, Ling Jingshu finally breathed a sigh of relief and quietly rubbed her sour wrist.

The flowerpot is not very heavy, but after just moving it for a long time, my wrists have become sore and numb.

Ruilian wasn't much better either. While rubbing her wrist, she complained in a low voice: "Without two or three days, there is no hope that this wrist will recover. Fortunately, we don't need to wait on the palace banquet today."

Ling Jingshu smiled and hummed.

Ruilian glanced at Ling Jingshu, and said tentatively with a smile: "Ah Shu, you stole the show at the flower viewing banquet today and saved the Queen's face. When the Queen is happy, you can ask for some rewards. , the empress will definitely not refuse."

"I do what I should do, and I don't have the nerve to ask for any reward." Ling Jingshu responded with a calm smile.

Ruilian's eyes flashed and she pursed her lips with a smile: "There are only two of us here, you don't have to be so cautious when speaking."

He lowered his voice and said: "The emperor looked at you more deliberately today. With your beauty, if you have such thoughts, you might as well make it clear to the queen. The queen has a broad mind. Not only will she not blame you, but she may I will also take the initiative to help you!"

"Wei Jieyu was just a palace maid next to the empress. Later, she won the favor of the emperor, and then she was transformed and became the master. Your beauty is no less beautiful than Wei Jieyu..."

Your Majesty?

When Ling Jingshu thought of that wrinkled face, she felt sick to her stomach, and responded coldly: "Sister Ruilian is joking. I have never had the desire to follow a dragon and a phoenix. In this case, it's better not to say it in the future. . To avoid being overheard and misunderstood."

Ruilian choked back all her words.

Yes! If Ling Jingshu wants to be the best, she can choose the young and handsome emperor grandson with a bright future. Although the emperor is only ninety-five years old, he is old enough to be a grandfather. I don’t know how many more years I can live!

If it were her, she wouldn't be happy either.

Seeing that Ruilian remained silent, Ling Jingshu said: "Sister Ruilian, I am very tired today~IndoMTL.com~I want to go back and rest for a long time. If the Queen is summoned for something, please ask my sister to have someone call me in the house. One sound."

Ruilian agreed with a smile.

After Ling Jingshu returned to the house, Bai Yu and Qiaoyun immediately gathered around and asked curiously: "Miss, did the pot of Luoyang Brocade capture the Oiran?"

Ling Jingshu smiled and nodded.

As for the little "interlude" at the flower viewing banquet, it's okay not to mention it. Her illness has not healed and she cannot touch or get close to any man. It is impossible for Empress Xu to even think about it, but there is no need to worry.

Bai Yu was immediately filled with joy and clapped her hands repeatedly to say hello. Even Qiao Yun was beaming with joy.

After several months of busy work, the work was finally not in vain.

Seeing the tired look on Ling Jingshu's face, Bai Yu immediately tugged on Qiaoyun's sleeves: "Miss must be tired today. Let's rest for a while. I will serve you later."

After the two maids retreated, Ling Jingshu put her clothes on and lay down, and soon fell asleep. (To be continued.)
