In the blink of an eye, it was the birthday of the old man of the Lian family.

Even the family, the famous family, the garden is full of flowers, which makes people feel happy.

Cheng Yuru, as the granddaughter of the Lian family, came early to help entertain the guests.

She has been pregnant for four months, her lower abdomen is slightly bulging, and her face is filled with the joy of becoming a mother.

The two sisters worked hand in hand to entertain the guests without any panic.

Many of the ladies present set their eyes on Cheng Yuru.

Although his background is not prominent, he has a prominent foreign family, and he is the best daughter-in-law candidate in the hearts of all ladies.

"Cousin, there are hundreds of women in the family, I believe that after today, there will be many people who will come to the door to propose!"

Listening to her cousin's teasing words, Cheng Yuru smiled and looked at the many ladies present generously, "That means I'm good enough!" ”

A playful smile and a mischievous wink at the end.

The two sisters teased each other, and Lian's aunt and uncle came over with someone, "You two have worked hard today!" ”

"Mother, I'm going to be angry when I talk like this!" Lian Yue walked up to Lian's aunt and took his arm affectionately, "Since you know that we are working hard, do you want to give us some small gifts." ”

"You kid knows how to ask for gifts, I just got a pair of bracelets two days ago, and one for each of you two later."

After a few small talks, the three of them separated and continued to entertain the guests.

In the front yard, Cheng An came back and hurried, he saw the old man of the Lian family saluting respectfully, "This is a birthday gift specially found for you, I hope you like it!" ”

Lian Xu watched the young man in front of him gradually moisten his eyes, worried that others would see the abnormality, so he hurriedly lowered his head and opened the gift.

Everyone felt a little strange when they saw the old man's abnormal behavior, and before they had time to think about it, the eldest princess walked in with someone.

Lian Xu hurriedly saluted like the eldest princess, but it was a pity that the eldest princess also glanced at them, but instead fell her gaze straight on Cheng An.

"You are Cheng An!"

The voice was as arrogant and rude as ever.

But if you listen carefully, you can hear the joy in the eldest princess's voice.

Cheng An lowered his head and felt cold in his heart, his tone was not hurried, and he said lightly, "Yes!" ”

“……”

Everyone present heard Cheng An's cold answer, and their hearts rose to their throats.

Who doesn't know that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is rude and willful, and her shots are very spicy.

There was once a little palace maid, but she accidentally bumped into the eldest princess while walking, and the eldest princess was generous on the surface, but the next day the little palace maid was found drowned in the lake of the imperial garden.

The most frightening thing is that the little palace maid is covered in bruises, her eyes have been gouged out, and the tendons and veins of her limbs have been picked open.

Although many years have passed, when people mention the eldest princess, they will invariably think of the little palace maid.

The hall was silent, and everyone was deliberately slowing their breathing.

Just when some people wanted to see the excitement, the eldest princess unexpectedly walked in front of Cheng An, "It is worthy of being a role model, she looks handsome, she is only eight buckets tall, she is a dragon and phoenix among people, and she will be the pillar of the court in the future......"

The eldest princess uttered a series of words of praise from her mouth, which made everyone dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

Although Lian Xu lowered his head, his eyes kept looking at the eldest princess and Cheng An, and when he saw the friendship of the youngest daughter in the eyes of the eldest princess, his eyes darkened.

As the host, he didn't want the atmosphere to become oppressive, so he took the initiative to let the eldest princess take her to the backyard where the female dependents were going.

Cheng An stood in place and watched the back of the eldest princess leaving, falling into deep thought.

Lian Xu handed over the matter of explaining the guests to his son, and at the same time sent someone to bring Cheng An into the study.

"What do you think of the matter of the eldest princess! Ru'er is a child with a hard life, and has suffered a lot since the death of her own mother! ”

"Lord Lian, don't worry, since the day the General's Mansion was destroyed, I have sworn that my life is up to me, even if it is a high emperor, I will never allow him to dominate my fate!"

The voice was flat, but there was an unmistakable domineering tone in his tone.

Lian Xu looked at the young man in front of him with appreciation.

Through those deep eyes, I seemed to see General Chu who fought on the battlefield many years ago and was invincible.

"Heroes out of boys! Your father would have been relieved to see you today. The matter of the eldest princess, don't be in a hurry, even if it is given by His Majesty, it will wait for the spring hunt after the spring hunt, I know that you have a plan, if you need help, you can speak at any time. ”

"Thank you, Lord Lian, it's just that what I'm going to do is too dangerous, and I don't want to affect the innocent."

Thinking of the spring hunt a month later, the expressions of the two became complicated.

The atmosphere in the study became so solemn that even the air seemed to stop flowing.

……

In the back garden, with the arrival of the eldest princess, the atmosphere is particularly lively.

Many of the official women present surrounded the eldest princess.

Cheng Yuru is responsible for entertaining guests as the host, and naturally it is no exception.

It's just that as soon as he appeared, he felt the inexplicable hostility of the eldest princess, so he kept standing aside and didn't say much.

Lian Yue, as the daughter of the Lian family, has participated in palace banquets many times, so she has many relationships with the eldest princess, but the two have different temperaments and have no deep friendship.

At this time, she entertained the eldest princess with a big belly, "This is a pastry specially prepared for today's banquet, I hope Her Royal Highness the eldest princess likes it!" ”

"Good!" The eldest princess is like the stars holding the moon, while enjoying the praise around her, her eyes always fall on Cheng Yuru.

After a while, he showed a tired look on his face, like Cheng Yuru said, "This palace is a little tired, you take me to the guest house to rest for a while." ”

Cheng Yuru raised her head and looked at the eldest princess with a surprised face, then reacted and immediately took the lead in bringing the eldest princess into the courtyard where the guests were resting.

"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, since you are tired, let's take a break here, and the courtiers have to entertain other guests, so retire first!"

"Wait! The guests in the courtyard, which one has the dignity of this princess. You're honestly here with me, asking and answering, you know? ”

Cheng Yuru was just about to walk out, but at this time she could only stop, turned around and sat on the chair next to her, and at the same time she was guessing the question of the eldest princess in her heart.

"Cheng An heard that he has a good relationship with your cousin, so do you know what he likes and what he doesn't like, there are just four treasures of the study here, write them out and give them to the palace!"

"Her Royal Highness the princess laughed, I am just a little woman and my cousin are closer on weekdays, but I don't know my cousin's preferences, and I ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to surrender."

"Really?"

The voice seems to be flat and bland, but there is a chilling coldness in it.
