Chapter 40 - Admiring Flower Banquet

Translator: Artsy

———————-

Qian Jiujiu looked at the beautiful flowers inside the shed, they were truly extremely beautiful. Even though, there were so many flowers piled together, it was still a little messy, so she blinked her eyes.

"Hubby, you're really looking for me to do all the work tomorrow. I'll spend the entire day arrange these flowers."

Qian Jiujiu kept her promise. On the second day, she spent an entire day putting some flowers in the pond, and some in the garden. She worked hard for an entire day before she finished arranging all flowers.

Of course, she had also reached an agreement with the butler to ensure that there wouldn't be any problems during the banquet tomorrow. In the blink of an eye, it was already the day of Admiring Flower Feast.

Qian Jiujiu had always been waiting for the arrival of Madame Qian and Qian Yuge, but she was really curious, what was Qian Yuge like now?

She was still not sure if Qian Yuge would come today or not. When half the people had arrived, Qian family's carriage had finally arrived and the butler had already received his orders.

As long as there were people from Qian family arrived, they would immediately go inform their princess consort. Therefore, when Qian family's carriage arrived, Qian Jiujiu was already standing at the door.

"Mother, you've finally come. You've made your daughter wait. Look, some Madam have arrived before you!"

When those words were said, it would be blaming. Madame Qian's face changed, wasn't this saying that she did not know what was good, what was bad for her? Even all Madame had already come.

She had only just arrived at this time, and couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth as she looked at Qian Jiujiu. "Your highness, there was little accident happened while we were leaving today, and the horse was startled."

Qian Jiujiu exclaimed: "Aiya, the horse is startled. Then mother, are you alright? Come quickly and let me see how it's going. Are you hurt?"

A few Mafame also had worried looks on their faces. Amongst them, Duchess Zheng was still looking at her enthusiastically: "In my opinion, let Princess Xiao get Madam Qian an imperial physician to take a look."

"Exactly."

"That's it."

Seeing that everyone agreed, Qian Jiujiu smiled as she looked at Madame Qian. "Then mother, please come in with sister first. Hong Chou, hurry and get an imperial physician to take a look at mother."

"If there's nothing else, you can still suppress the shock. Mother, what's with the coachman? If they don't place safety first, then hurry up and switch people. This is so dangerous, and your daughter is already worried to death. "

Qian Jiujiu spoke with a face full of depressed. Everyone looked at her and praised her, "Princess is really filial, but when horse are frightened, it's normal for such an accident to happen."

"Don't worry too much."

"That's right, that's right. Which family did your sister that Your Highness mention just now belong to?"

These were the words of Duchess Ying, Qian Jiujiu could not help but look at this duchess. Such an experienced person was really rare, so she smiled and replied.

"My sister is naturally Uncle Wang's daughter, and her name is Wan Ge. She's as pure as water, pretty and innocent. She seems like goddess, much stronger than me."

Duchess Ying was also curious. "Such a beautiful lady. Naturally, we have to meet her."

Duchess Zheng laughed out loud. "Your highness, are you joking? Who are you? You're the capital's number one beauty! I don't believe that there's anyone more beautiful than you."

The two of them echo one another, forcing Qian Yuge to reveal her face. However, Qian Jiujiu absolutely believed that Qian Yuge's face was abnormal, because she had never seen it before, when Qian Yuge and Madame Qian appeared.

Qian Jiujiu could smell the smell of the medicine, and the smell was coming from Qian Yuge's body. On the other hand, when Qian Yuge heard the flattery from the crowd, she was extremely jealous.

All of this, all of this should have been hers, the damned Qian Jiujiu, actually snatched away her wealth, and now she was even trying to frame her.

Madame Qian's expression didn't look good as she glanced at Qian Jiujiu. "Princess, the horse this morning was startled. Your sister was shocked quite a bit, there are so many of them, don't call her out."

Qian Jiujiu asked: "Why do mother's words sound so strange? So what if there were more people? It's more people that can let sister show her most beautiful side. "

"Why are there so many people so sister will be scared? Sister, are you saying that we aren't as beautiful as you, so you don't want to look at us?"

When the Madame Qian heard Qian Jiujiu's words, she hated Qian Jiujiu to death in her heart, but a proud look quickly flashed across her face. Qian Jiujiu, oh Qian Jiujiu, sure enough, this show was really smooth.

Do you think I will bring Qian Yuge out when her face is not healed?

"Your highness, you can't say that. Mother knows that you and your sister have a good relationship. I'll call your sister over right now. Wan Ge, come out."

Qian Yuge who was on the carriage had long since been angered to death, and hearing Qian Jiujiu being flattered by all these people, now that she was out, she had to ruthlessly step on her.

Thus, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Qian Yuge, who was wearing a veil, appeared just like that. Even if Qian Jiujiu did not want to admit it, she had no choice but to admit it.

No matter how you look at it, it's just that the people here are all beauties, and you aren't so beautiful that you can bring down a country with your beauty.

Then your beauty will only cause others to feel jealous, and Qian Yuge is currently in such a situation. The young miss of the Zheng family cannot stand the appearance of a more beautiful woman than her.

She looked at Qian Yuge. "Is this the sister of Princess Xiao? We are all female guests, what are you doing covering your face for? Could it be that there's something shameful about it? "

When Duchess heard this, she immediately coughed twice. "Fu'er, why are you saying this? Apology to Her Highness."

Zheng Fu looked at Qian Jiujiu unwillingly: "Your Highness, I'm sorry. Fu'er was just a bit anxious and curious, so I didn't say anything intentionally."

Qian Jiujiu replied, "Miss Zheng is too polite. Sister is wearing a veil, Miss Zheng is so anxious, so there's nothing wrong. Sister, why aren't you still not taking off your veil and letting me see?"

Everyone could taste the flavor now. It seemed like the relationship between Princess Xiao and her older sister wasn't that good. Otherwise, no one would go and cause trouble for her.

Qian Yuge held the handkerchief tightly in both her hands, but she quickly calmed herself down, laughed, and took off her veil: "So it turns out that everyone is very curious about Ge'er's appearance."

"My little sister is the capital's number one beauty! In the past, my father didn't even allow me to appear, but today, it's even at the invitation of my little sister.

Qian Jiujiu pursed her lips, these words seemed to say that she was wronged. The previous number one beauty in the capital, it was also her because she was not allowed to go out that the title of number one beauty was given to Princess Xiao.

Everyone knew how to pretend, so she smiled and watched as Qian Yuge took off her veil. Under the veil was a face with red lips, white teeth, and skin like jade.

Everyone looked at each other. In the entire capital, only the number one beauty was needed, so what right did the daughter of Qian family have to use the title of the capital's number one beauty to marry the prince?

Now, even a niece of the Qian family wanted to inherit the title of number one beauty? So it turned out that the capital's number one beauty was only limited to unmarried young ladies.

It was no wonder that Qian Jiujiu looked at Noble consort Qing and the other concubines in the harem that were much prettier than Qian Yuge.

Qian Jiujiu looked at Qian Yuge: "Sister is indeed beautiful, I think that the title of number one beauty will fall onto sister's body. In the future, elder sister will also get married into a good family. "

Qian Yuge's eyes turned red, what does that mean? That she, Qian Yuge, would only treat by people as a lust in the future? One had to know that there was no good end up being a lust who serve other.

She could not help but want to argue with Qian Jiujiu out of anger, but she was caught by the Madame Qian. She looked at Qian Jiujiu: "Your highness, didn't you say you wanted to admire the flower? Where are those flowers?"

Once the words left her mouth, everyone once again felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. Why does it feel like Madame Qian was helping her niece suppress her daughter?

This Madame Qian can not be a muddle-headed, right? Honestly speaking, the reason why all Madame came because they wanted to get to know Prince Xiao Manor as well.

Although it was said that Prince Xiao was crippled, up until now, the most scared person still remained Prince Xiao. As long as Prince Xiao did not die, even if he did not become the emperor, he would still be a prince.

There was nothing wrong with having a good relationship with such a family, so these people had come.

However, when it came to the issue of admiring the flowers, these people would never think that there would really be any famous flowers in Prince Xiao Manor. After all, everyone knew that Xiao Prince did not like flowers.

So when it came to Madame Qian, she wanted to slap Qian Jiujiu's face. Many people looked at Qian Jiujiu, wanting to see how she would deal with this situation.

"Mother, since you're in such a hurry and the sun is shining red, you won't run away. Whatever, since mother wants to see, your daughter will bring you there."

Sunny red, we are talking about roses, but in the Capital of the Great Zhou called Sunny red.

(T/N: I'm gonna use rose here because it's easy to understand.)

Qian Jiujiu was leading the way in the front, but in reality, she did not know the way, but she had already marked the flowers and plants on the ground. Yesterday's work was the arrangement for today.

In order to not let anyone see that she was a person with a poor sense of direction, this was a huge weakness. One must know that in her previous life, she had died because of having poor sense of direction, and she had not learned to be obedient in her current life.

Qian Jiujiu didn't want to be fragile anymore. Following which, only the symbols that she could understand were left on the ground, and then, she arrived at the area with the red rose. Yesterday, Qian Jiujiu had put out a piece of rose.

A large patch of fiery red looked to be as passionate as fire, making people intoxicated from looking at it. Qian Jiujiu looked happy: "Mother, is it nice to watch?"

"I once said in front of His highness that I likes roses, and His highness immediately went to find so many of them and plant it in the garden so that I can see them at any time. This is all due to the way His highness treats me."

Qian Jiujiu said as she glanced at Qian Yuge provocatively. She wanted to let Qian Yuge know what kind of man she had missed?
