Chapter 30 Intention
"It doesn't matter, it's just that I made a bet with Chang Huan back then. If I can win, she will give me a piece of land in this garden." Shen Qinghe smiled, and the complacent look appeared on his face again, saying , "As you can see, I won."

Yun Zhuo was not interested in his bet. After hearing what he said, he just nodded, with no expression on his face, and still turned around to leave.

Shen Qinghe thought of what she had learned from Xie Jie a few days ago, and suddenly said "Hey", staggered towards her, and asked, "I want to ask you something, do you like Xie Tuizhi?"

Yun Zhuo glanced at him inexplicably, and quickened the pace of leaving.

How could she like Xie Jie?Or in other words, is there anyone in this world who deserves to like Xie Jie?

No.

With her head down, she returned to the way she came from among the camellia bushes, and walked towards the hexagonal pavilion.

On the other side of the gazebo, Hongxiu just arrived with a food box. On the way, she was worried that Miss Lu would have left. She didn't expect that when she looked over the fence and curtain from a distance, she would still see her sitting upright. There, it looks like a peaceful time.

She pursed her lips, walked into the pavilion, went to Lu Qingzhu, took out the rosewood food box with beams in her hand, and said in a voice that everyone around her could hear: "Miss Lu, this food box is a few days ago. You sent a maid over to give my girl plum blossom cakes, saying that you want to drink tea and discuss poetry with my girl in the Golden Valley Garden today, why are you silent now that my girl is here?"

Lu Qingzhu bit her lips lightly, looked at the food box in Hongxiu's hand, and turned her earnest eyes to her, hoping that she could take the food box back.

She has been embarrassed enough today, she will never take this plate of plum blossom crisps again.

At this time, many young ladies from aristocratic families in the pavilion did not understand the development of the matter, and asked the people around them one after another, what happened before this?What is the origin of this maid, why did she talk to the girl from the Lu family like this?

Some noble ladies who had seen Yun Zhuo make Lu Qingzhu speechless before, now enthusiastically explained the ins and outs of the matter to them, and finally said: "I guess Miss Lu didn't expect it, and she never gave it to her." The face-saving Princess Changhuan really let that concubine of the Yun family post a post, and then she shot herself in the foot."

"Yeah, who would have thought that she would actually recognize this cousin Yunzhuo? This Yunzhuo is really lucky. I heard that the three young masters of the Yun family pampered her like pearls and treasures."

"Speaking of which, fortunately, I don't have someone like Lu Qingzhu around me. It's really not easy for Miss Yun Si to treat Lu Qingzhu as a close friend all these years?"

"Who said no?"

The few people sitting by the fence were talking about these things one by one, and their voices came to Lu Qingzhu's ears uninterruptedly. In her sleeves, her hands were clenched tightly, her fingertips turned white because of too much force, and the sharp nails were deeply embedded in her palms.
She took a deep breath, and seeing that Hongxiu was still holding the food box, she refused to take it back, so she turned her head and asked the maid standing behind her to take the food box.She knew she couldn't leave now, if she stayed here, she would just listen to the gossip of these people, it was nothing, she told herself, words can only be words, they can never be a sharp arrow to hurt people, she wants to If she left, she would be a real loser. In the future, when someone mentions the flower feast in Jingu Garden today, they will think of her fleeing today.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, a servant girl finally came to invite them to sit down in Fengzhaoxuan. There was a vast open space in the courtyard, and there were dozens of desks on the left and right, separated by a thin silk screen in the middle, male and female guests. Through this screen, the person sitting opposite can be vaguely seen. On the table, there are boxes with red lacquer painted with gold, yellow ground with pink hibiscus plates, green ground with ink colored flower and bird high foot plates, etc., which are used to place snacks and preserved fruits. For snacks, there is also a silver pot, and table utensils such as gold bottles and jade chopsticks.Flowers and plants are planted all over the courtyard, the branches and leaves are stretched, and the flowers are in full bloom, which is full of spring.

Yun Zhuo sat at the end of the right seat, opposite her was Shen Qinghe in black clothes.At this time, the wind blew over, and she smelled the heavy alcohol smell on his body again in a trance, as if he had just been fished out of the wine jar.But the next moment, the smell of alcohol disappeared again, and she suspected that she had smelled it wrong.

After everyone arrived at the table, Pei Wanyin finally arrived late, and a maid followed behind her, holding a scroll in her arms.

Her beautiful phoenix eyes swept across the seats in the courtyard, and finally fixed her gaze on Yun Zhuo, who was obviously wandering away from the sky at the end, and said to everyone after a while: "Today, the reason why the palace holds this flower banquet is because the sky is getting warmer. Coincidentally, I haven’t seen you all for a long time, so why don’t I use this pretext of the flower viewing feast to invite you to the Golden Valley Garden. I just didn’t expect that my palace would have an unexpected surprise today.”

After she finished speaking, someone with good intentions asked loudly in the banquet: "I don't know where the princess started to say this? Since it is a good thing, why don't you say it to make us happy?"

Pei Wanyin nodded, and called the maid behind her to open the scroll. At this moment, another maid stepped forward, and together with the maid holding the scroll, slowly pulled one end of the scroll and pulled it away.

At this time, all the attention of the people in the banquet was on the scroll, and they watched the scroll open little by little with bated breath, until the full picture of the scroll was revealed, and then they realized that the scroll was actually a painting.

The painting depicts Princess Changhuan and her beloved pet, one person and one eagle, so lifelike.

"This painting can be said to be a top-notch work. I wonder which master it came from?" Someone asked again.

After his words fell, some people at the table began to discuss in low voices who would make this painting. It looks like a Wuzhong painter, but the brushstrokes are delicate, and it seems to be more inclined to the Jiangnan area?
After seeing the painting, Yun Zhuo was stunned: This is clearly her painting!What exactly does Pei Wanyin want to do?
Because she remembered what happened in her previous life, she secretly planned this time in her heart. It would be better not to offend Pei Wanyin as much as possible. This painting was also drawn to please her, and it was not painted in front of Lu Qingzhu and those young ladies This painting was taken out to slap them in the face, because Pei Wanyin would think too much, thinking that she didn't really offer the painting, but just wanted to take this opportunity to promote her talent.

But what is Pei Wanyin doing now?Is this trying to make her famous?Or dug a hole for her and waited for her to jump into it?

"This painting is from my cousin, Yun Zhuo. Coincidentally, before this flower banquet, someone told me about Yun Zhuo's cousin, and always said that although she studied with Mu Guiliu, a famous scholar in Langya, she still In my opinion, lack of talent and learning, nothing can be achieved, but this is not the case, what do you think?"
