"I have met Princess De and Princess Yu."
The servants and the noble ladies of lower status all saluted.
Princess De waved her hand kindly, "No need to be polite."
"Princess Yu, you rarely attend these banquets. Let me introduce it to you."
"This is Xiang Miaomiao, the daughter of the minister of household affairs, and this is the daughter of the mighty general... That one is..."
Yingying Yanyan, wearing gold and silver, with no makeup.
Ye Jinxiao glanced around and took a rough sketch, but there were too many people, so he just said hello politely and gave up.
She never liked such occasions.
Princess Yi was peeling the grapes, with an impatient expression on her face: "How big of a shelf is she? I need to introduce her one by one. Someone will introduce her, and someone will introduce her again. Do sisters want to get together and chat?"
The straightforward words made many wealthy ladies snicker secretly.
Princess Yi's disgust for Princess Yu was palpable.
If the two of them quarreled, they would be in for a good show.
Liu Mingyue answered: "Princess Yi doesn't know something. Princess Yu has been reckless since she was a child. She has never attended any banquets and doesn't know anyone."
"I'm afraid this time it's just like when Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden. She was so dazzled that she couldn't see it."
He covered his lips and snickered.
Every line in the text is ridiculing Ye Jinxiao for being short-sighted and not even recognizing the rich ladies here.
"Oh." Princess Yi took a bite of the grape.
"Wild boars really can't eat fine chaff."
Pfft——
Many people snickered, ate tea and melon seeds, and watched the show with relish.
Liu Mingyue and Ye Jinxiao have a delicate relationship. If they meet today, they may start to fight.
Princess De frowned. Today was King De's birthday party, so she naturally didn't want these people to cause trouble in the grounds of Prince De's palace.
What is being held tonight is a birthday banquet, not a singing stage.
Ye Jinxiao sat down without changing her expression, "Look at how diligent Miss Liu is. She has met so many wealthy ladies. You are not a high-status person, so you should really go up to the pole to please them."
And as the direct daughter of the Tutor's Mansion, she is more noble than most of the daughters here based on this status alone.
Coupled with her status as the royal daughter-in-law, only Princess De and Princess Yi can be equal to her.
Liu Mingyue's expression suddenly changed, "You insulted me?"
She rolled her eyes:
"Princess Yu, I know that you have a noble status and all the sisters here are inferior to you, but you shouldn't trample on everyone like this."
With a white lotus tone, everyone was drawn in to target Ye Jinxiao together.
"All of you here are noble ladies from well-known families. They are well-educated and have a clean background. Doesn't Miss Liu know who I am targeting?"
Ye Jinxiao's eyes were stern, and there was a noble air in his eyebrows. He just looked careless and didn't pay attention to Liu Mingyue at all.
"Only a weak person would think about trying to please this or that, and I don't need to do anything, but you have to bow to me."
"I wonder who is the wild boar? Who is the chaff?"
Liu Mingyue's cheeks turned red with embarrassment: "You——"
She is indeed of low status and has an average family background, but it would be too insulting to say these words openly!
"Okay, why are you arguing?" Princess Yi cursed impatiently.
"Miss Liu just said one thing, you can say three words, Ye Jinxiao, let's see what you can do."
Ye Jinxiao narrowed his eyes.
The two of them had a quarrel last time, and it was only a few days ago, but they reconciled so quickly?
It seemed that Liu Mingyue was qualified to attend King De's birthday party because of Princess Yi's favor.
"When it comes to ability, I am naturally far inferior to Miss Liu and Princess Yi. I can sit down and stab each other calmly. I don't have this ability."
Thinking of what happened last time, Princess Yi's expression changed slightly.
Liu Mingyue stabbed her in the back, causing her personal bodyguard to go to jail. He was convicted and unable to be fished out, and she lost her right and left arm.
She hated Liu Mingyue to death.
But King Yi told her yesterday that she must help Liu Mingyue regain the favor of King Yu, and hold on to King Yu, which will be of great use in the fight for the heir in the future.
If not, how could she have the patience to tolerate Liu Mingyue, a bitch!
"Princess Yu, stop sowing discord here!" Liu Mingyue said coldly.
"Wan Qing and I have known each other since childhood and have a very good relationship. How can you separate us with just a few words?"
During this period of time, she spent a lot of time trying to make Qu Wanqing happy.
"Really, Wanqing?"
Princess Yi lost all her patience and had to keep her expression: "Yeah."
Liu Mingyue had a backer and confidence, and her voice became louder: "Only some jealous villains will use some shady and dark methods."
Ye Jinxiao: "A dog relies on human power."
"you!"
Liu Mingyue's cheeks turned red and she almost broke her guard.
Ye Jinxiao picked up the tea cup and took a sip without paying attention to her.
"Come here, bring the pastries and snacks carefully prepared in the kitchen." Princess De opened her mouth to adjust the atmosphere, glanced at Liu Mingyue, and added:
"Tell the kitchen to make some more bitter chrysanthemum tea that will reduce the fire."
The maid took the order: "Yes."
Liu Mingyue's eyes turned red with embarrassment.
Is Princess De playing tricks on her?
Why did Princess De help Ye Jinxiao speak?
This is obviously not to give her Liu Mingyue face!
"What are everyone talking about? It's so lively." A soft-smiling female voice came from the audience at Yanxuan.
Everyone looked.
I saw a dignified man in a purple robe holding the woman's little hand and walking slowly towards him. The woman was thin and frail, with a sickly pale face, like a small white flower in the wind and rain, fragile and harmless.
"I have met His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess."
The visitors were Chu Huaijin, the eldest son of the Prince of Jin's Palace, and Wei, the eldest concubine of the Zhenguo General's Palace.
There was a roar of salute.
Ye Jinxiao raised his eyes and saw Chun Jing following the two of them.
Chunjing was wearing the clothes of a maid in Prince Jin's palace, with her head lowered and her hands folded in front of her. She couldn't see the expression on her face, but her hands were red with frostbite, and she was wearing thin clothes.
Why is she here?
After the ceremony, take your seat.
Chu Huaijin raised his head and looked at Chun Jing: "No wink?"
Chunjing immediately stepped forward, placed the soft dumplings she had brought with her on the stool, helped the Crown Princess sit down, took off her heavy cloak, and wrapped a plush blanket around her body.
Attentive service.
"Ajin," the Crown Prince's voice was very gentle, like a gurgling spring water, wrapping around her fingers.
If Liu Mingyue were a white lotus, she would be good at pretending to cry and show off.
But this prince's concubine is gentle to the core, she is gentle from the bones without any disguise, and her figure is thin and thin, sickly and weak, which is pitiful.
"This is the female guest's office. It's not convenient for the sisters to talk while you are here. You go and work there first. I'll come back when the banquet starts."
Chu Huaijin held her boneless Rouyi and said warmly: "It's cold today and I'm worried about you being weak."
"It's okay, I'll just sit here and don't run around."
The princess tidied his clothes gently, "Come out quickly, don't tell the sisters to be cautious, be good."
Chu Huaijin nodded.
He turned his head and looked at Chunjing, "Please wait carefully. If anything goes wrong with the Crown Princess, I will only ask you."
Chunjing lowered her head and said expressionlessly: "I obey my command."
