The next afternoon, Jiang Wan entered the palace to attend the banquet.

The country of Shao is still very open, and the men and women sit opposite each other at the banquet.

When Jiang Wan arrived, most of the young ladies and sons of the family had already arrived, because the banquet was not allowed to bring attendants, so Jiang Wan let the resignation wait in the mansion.

The Dehua Palace is fragrant, all kinds of gorgeous flowers are blooming, and the Suihan plum in the courtyard stands proudly between heaven and earth.

The people sitting on the main seat had not yet come, and Jiang Wan sat in the middle of the table and looked at everyone quietly.

A string of coughs was heard, accompanied by a faint smell of herbs. A woman in a plain dress was helped in by a maid.

The young lady next to her saw that it was the sick son of the Qiu family, and lowered her head and whispered.

"This eldest lady of the Qiu family is also loved by the Queen Mother, and she is obsessed with His Royal Highness King Chen."

"Don't say that, no one in the imperial city knows that the eldest lady of the Qiu family and King Chen have made a marriage contract since childhood."

The woman's face was full of disdain when she heard this, "Who doesn't know that she only has seven or eight years of life left in Qiu Yao, and even her sick seedling is worthy of the name of Princess Chen." ”

Lin Yanan deliberately raised his voice so that everyone around him could hear it, and then listened to everyone's voices with satisfaction.

The little maid Cuizhu beside Qiu Yao was a little dissatisfied, how could this second miss of the Lin family slander my young lady so much!

Feeling the strange gazes of the people around him, Qiu Yao seemed to be used to it, and his expression was calm, but the depths of his eyes were gloomy that could not be hidden.

Seeing this, the little maid was also very worried about Miss's body, she had followed Miss since she was a child, and she also knew that Miss and His Royal Highness King Chen's childhood sweetheart had no guesses, and the relationship between the two was also set by the Queen Mother herself.

She knew that the young lady had always admired His Royal Highness King Chen, otherwise she would not have dragged her body to participate in the painting banquet after recovering from a serious illness, just to meet His Royal Highness King Shangchen as a possibility.

"Miss, don't listen to their nonsense, of course Miss is in love with His Royal Highness King Chen, and there is no one in the world who is more worthy of His Royal Highness King Chen than Miss." The little maid couldn't help but comfort.

Qiu Yao smiled shallowly, and just asked the little maid to help her sit at the table, not wanting to talk more with others.

As soon as she was about to leave, she was stopped by Lin Yanan, she stood in front of Qiu Yao, looking arrogant, and looked at her sick and weak appearance with disdain.

"Even if you also want to become Princess Chen, I advise you to withdraw from this family affair and not let King Chen be ashamed."

Cuizhu has never seen such a shameless person, but the daughter of a third-grade official dares to be presumptuous in front of the young lady.

As soon as she wanted to speak, she was stopped by the young lady secretly pulling her sleeve.

"My marriage contract with King Chen is the will of the Queen Mother, if Miss Lin has any dissatisfaction, she can take advantage of today's banquet to ask the Queen Mother for instructions."

Qiu Yao was neither humble nor arrogant, and his gentle and gentle words made Lin Yanan choke.

Lin Yanan clenched the silk handkerchief in his hand angrily, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

This slut!

"Sick seedlings should stay at home and don't come out, how unlucky."

Lin Yanan leaned over to Qiu Yao's side and whispered, seeing that Qiu Yao's face suddenly turned pale, and there was an inexplicable pleasure in her heart, she hit Qiu Yao hard with her shoulder, and then proudly prepared to leave.

Qiu Yao was caught off guard, and his body was about to fall as soon as he stumbled.

At that moment, a strong hand grabbed her by the waist, and there was a burst of exclamations around her.

"His Royal Highness King Chen."

The young lady of the family looked jealously at Qiu Yao, who was held in the arms of His Royal Highness King Chen.

"Are you alright?"

Everyone saw Bei Youchen and the queen mother beside him supporting the queen mother and saluted one after another.

"I've seen the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and His Royal Highness King Chen."

The black pressed one, the kneeling man.

Bei Youchen looked at the person in his arms worriedly, the face of the demon was nervous, he lowered his voice, afraid of scaring the person in his arms, and asked in a soft voice as much as possible.

"Are you alright, but what's wrong?"

Qiu Yao's expression was stunned, and he hadn't reacted yet, but he suddenly came back to his senses when he heard this anxious and worried voice.

When she realized that she had been in King Chen's arms for so long in front of everyone, her little face turned red all of a sudden.

Hurriedly got up and replied shyly.

"Ahem... Thank you for your concern, the little girl is fine. "When I was nervous, I coughed non-stop, and my eyes were filled with tears, which was distressing.

Bei Youchen patted her back worriedly, his eyes full of distress.

Lin Yanan was very happy when she heard King Chen's voice, and when she turned around, she saw that Qiu Yao's slut was lying in the arms of His Royal Highness King Chen.

A trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes, and she was unwilling to bow down with everyone.

Bei Youchen was relieved to confirm that Qiu Yao was really fine, but his face became gloomy at the thought of the insults and humiliations he had heard in the hall just now.

The Queen Mother's face is not very good-looking, I didn't expect these people to chew their tongues like this behind their backs. She stepped forward and patted Qiu Yao's hand in distress.

"I've wronged you, girl Qiu."

Qiu Yao smiled, his good-looking eyes shining and his voice gentle.

"Qiu Yao is not aggrieved, I am very happy to be able to accompany my mother Qiu Yao."

The Queen Mother took her hand with relief, of course she knew that Qiu Yatou was a drunkard and did not mean to drink, and she was afraid that it was the stinky boy who was thinking about her.

Qiu Yatou grew up watching her, with a gentle personality, and she wouldn't say anything if she was wronged.

The Queen Mother had a cold face and looked at Lin Yanan who was kneeling on the ground.

She was the one who bullied Qiu Ya just now.

The queen mother fought on the battlefield in her early years, even if she was sick in the harem for a long time, the pressure on her body was not something that ordinary people could withstand.

Lin Yanan's heart was flustered, her breathing became more and more difficult, and her face turned pale.

"What's your name? Raise your head and let the mourners see. ”

Lin Yanan raised her head tremblingly.

"Courtier's daughter Lin Yanan, father Lin Dongxiang."

"It turned out to be the daughter of Lord Shangshulin of the household department, and she acted recklessly and without rules, which was really an eye-opener for the mourning family!"

Lin Yanan broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"The queen mother forgives her sins, and the courtiers are also unintentional."

The queen mother didn't want to embarrass things, and the various families that the emperor had just disposed of a few days ago were panicking.

The queen also saw that the queen mother didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so she proposed.

"The queen mother is angry, can't it be unpleasant to have a banquet today, according to the opinion of the concubine, why don't you go to Yunyin Temple to think about it?"

The Queen Mother's face improved slightly.

"Then according to what the queen said, the daughter of the Lin family doesn't know the etiquette, and she will be punished for thinking about it in Yunyin Temple."

Lin Yanan gritted her teeth, seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and spit out five words with difficulty

"Thank you, Empress Dowager."

A farce has just come to an end, and everyone has thought about it.

The Queen Mother sat on the main seat, watching the little girl beside her sneak a glance at the stinky boy from time to time, and her mind was not here at all.

Sigh helplessly.

That's it, the woman is not staying.

She touched Qiu Ya's hand lovingly, and beckoned her stinky boy to come over.

said angrily, "Don't take your daughter-in-law away quickly, her eyes are about to grow on you." ”

Qiu Yao blushed suddenly.

Bei Youchen was slightly flustered, and his beautiful eyes were dyed with a happy smile. Facing the blushing little girl, the gentle and gentlemanly bent down and stretched out her hand.

"The retainers obey."
