Time travel, Your Highness Ninth Prince has been rejected from marriage again!
Chapter 445 Birthday Banquet
Qingyun's eyes lit up. As the eldest princess, she held real power in her hands. She would definitely have to hold banquets in the future.
The previous Prime Minister's Mansion had always been very low-key. If he held banquets frequently, he would inevitably trouble Mo Linghuai. She also least wanted to hold a banquet in the Prime Minister's Mansion, as it always felt a bit inconsistent.
It would be best if Princess Jianzhang's mansion was only used for banquets. After listening to Yan Siyuan's explanation, Qing Xiao also felt that it was feasible. He and Qing Rongxu looked at each other and could see what the other person was thinking.
So he nodded and said: "Yes, but the princess's mansion is not that easy to build. You have to choose a place first and then build it. It will take at least a year or two."
Qingyun: "Actually, there is no need to find a new location. Yan Xuan's princess mansion is still vacant, isn't it?"
Yan Siyuan frowned, "But that belongs to Yan Xu'an, not yours, and her princess mansion is not very big."
"It doesn't matter, it can be expanded. This can save a lot of time. Although I don't like the decoration inside, I can just change it again."
Seeing Qingyun's insistence, Yan Siyuan said nothing more. But he entered the palace the next day, and the imperial edict came down in the evening. Emperor Yan rewarded Qingyun with the Fifth Princess's Mansion and the two nearby houses.
On the third day, someone made a drawing and handed it to Qingyun.
Qingyun looked at the antique designs, pavilions, flowing water, and lofts in front of her, her eyes shining brightly. He even looked at Yan Siyuan with a smile.
"You are so fast."
Seeing Qingyun happy, Yan Siyuan also had a gentle smile on his lips, "Do you still like her?"
"I like it, that's good."
In fact, she doesn't have any big requirements for her princess mansion. But the drawings Yan Si gave her were exquisite and detailed, not even a small covered bridge was spared.
Just looking at the drawings is amazing, and once built, it will probably be a highlight in the capital.
Although the drawings were drawn, Yan Siyuan was not in a hurry to start construction. I thought about waiting until Qingyun’s birthday party before starting.
On September 12th, there was a lot of traffic in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and all kinds of gorgeous carriages were parked on both sides of the gate.
Mo Linghuai received female guests in the backyard, while Qing Xiao and Qing Rongxu received male guests in the front yard. In the backyard, Qingyun looked at the ladies and ladies in the courtyard with a standard fake smile on her face. The same was true for other ladies, but compared to Qingyun, their smiles were much more natural. It's just that there's not much sincerity.
"The Queen has arrived~", a voice broke the original bustle, and the courtyard suddenly became quiet.
The smile on Qingyun's face also faded, and she looked toward the door.
Meng Zirou wore a rose-red palace dress, and a shawl embroidered with pink peach blossoms was casually draped around her wrists. The water between his brows and eyes is rippling, and he looks dignified.
The steps are small and steady, and the feet are not exposed. It does not look like walking over, but like floating over.
After more than ten meters, the pearl hairpin on his head didn't move at all. Even the Gemini pendant around his waist didn't make any sound. With his back straight, he walked straight towards Qingyun.
Qingyun was the first to react, "My daughter has seen the Queen, and she is blessed."
Others also responded one after another, "I have seen the queen, and she is a thousand years old."
Walking a step away from Qingyun, Meng Zirou stopped. Looking at Qingyun in front of her, a smile appeared on her face.
He stretched out his hand to help Qingyun up, "Eldest princess, there is no need to be polite, you are the birthday girl today."
Then he looked at the other people who were saluting and said, "Everyone, please get up too."
Everyone: "Queens and empresses."
Hearing this, Qingyun also smiled. He was very curious in his heart, "It's really troublesome for the queen to make this trip. It's my fault."
Meng Zirou looked at Qingyun and said strangely: "How come, you and I have grown up together as sisters, how come we are still separated after not seeing each other for a long time?".
This is really half true and half false. Who doesn't know where the sisterly love between the two came from, as they have been fighting since childhood? It is only natural for enemies to be extremely jealous when they meet.
But in front of everyone, they still behave like sisters. After all, it is true to say that we grew up together.
"How could it be? My daughter has always been thinking about the Queen."
The two held each other's hand, holding it tighter and tighter, secretly competing with each other.
Meng Zirou was also wearing armor. The golden armor was engraved with patterns, which made the back of Qingyun's hands hurt. But she wasn't bad either. She directly pinched Meng Zirou's soft flesh and strangled her to death.
It wasn't until something changed happened on both of their faces that they let go.
Qingyun hid her hands in her sleeves and kept rubbing them in exchange. She knew without looking at her that her back must be red.
Meng Zirou also felt uncomfortable. Qingyun pinched several nail marks on the back of her hand, and there were faint traces of blood.
However, there was no change in their faces, and they looked at each other with smiles. It just feels like gnashing your teeth.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they all turned a blind eye.
Meng Zixuan was the first to break the calm: "My cousin is here today, but are you here to give gifts?"
Meng Zirou finally turned her gaze to Meng Zixuan’s face. When she looked at Qingyun, her eyes were filled with excitement and anger. But when it came to Meng Zixuan, it turned into disdain and ridicule.
Meng Zixuan lowered her head and pretended not to see it.
"Of course, since it is the birthday of the eldest princess, how could she come empty-handed? Is it possible that the second sister came empty-handed?"
"Of course not. My sister just wants to know what my cousin gave me. There is no malicious intention."
Speaking, Meng Zixuan showed a somewhat aggrieved look. Meng Zirou's eyes looked a little panicked, as if she was very afraid of the person in front of her.
Meng Zihan's expression suddenly changed, and she said to Meng Ziju: "Cousin, the second sister is just asking, how can you embarrass her like this?"
"Oh? When did I embarrass her? Are you blind? Didn't she speak first?"
"Even if it is, the second sister is not much like a cousin. Why should the cousin be so unreasonable?"
Facing Meng Zihan's questioning, Meng Zirou just played with the armor in her hand. Looking at the pinch marks on the back of his hand, he gave Qingyun a sharp look.
Qingyun stared back, pouting and rubbing the back of her hands, indicating that she wasn't feeling well either.
Meng Zirou gave her a roll of her eyes, "Elder Princess, not only did I bring my birthday gift when I came today, but the Queen Mother also asked me to bring her share of the gift."
With that said, he reached out and took the booklet handed over by the little eunuch beside him, and then passed it to the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Meng Zihan's words completely fell on deaf ears, and he didn't even look at her.
Meng Zihan was furious and wanted to step forward to argue, but Meng Zixuan stopped him and shook his head at her, signaling her not to act rashly.
Butler Zhang took the booklet and looked at Qingyun, asking for advice.
Originally, the ritual did not need to be recited, as long as it was taken back to the treasury. But this was a gift from the Queen and the Queen Mother, and it was given in front of so many people, so it didn't seem right to ignore it.
