Taking the initiative to remarry! The crazy prince is obsessed with me
Chapter 81: Matchmaker at the Snow Viewing Banquet
Shen Xiyue sent invitations to the homes of all officials above the sixth rank in the capital.
Half a month later, the Snow Viewing Banquet was held at Princess Huayang's Mansion.
In the garden of the atrium, the wintersweets are already showing signs of blooming, and the surrounding scenery has also been arranged, without a trace of desolation. Warm tents have been hung in the corridors around the garden, and charcoal fires are placed inside. The desks are all equipped with pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
The weather outside was also very nice, with a few scattered snowflakes.
This snow-viewing banquet had already been the talk of the town.
Not to mention the entire capital, even among all the abandoned women in the world who have divorced and returned home, none of them acts as high-profile as Shen Xiyue.
The children of aristocratic families and the noble ladies, no matter how reluctant they were, no one dared to refuse because Shen Xiyue was using the title of Concubine Qi as a banner.
There were even quite a few who arrived early, greeting and chatting with each other, and they did a great job of putting on a good front.
After Shen Xiyue had packed everything, she went there early, waiting to host the banquet.
The servants in the mansion shouted loudly: "Princess Huayang is here——"
Everyone at the table looked over and saw a figure climbing up the stairs and slowly coming into view.
Shen Xiyue was wearing a red dress with cloud patterns embroidered on the hem with silver silk thread. She was also draped over her body with a thick fox fur cloak. She did not look bulky when she walked, but instead exuded a sense of heroic spirit.
Those charming peach blossom eyes were full of water, like a hot spring that suddenly appeared in the cold night, making people want to drown in it, but the corners of her lips were slightly upturned, which made people feel pity.
Some people marveled at her beauty, while others despised her behavior.
"It's Princess Huayang... It's ok for her to hold a banquet, but she even dressed so seductively..."
"Ah, who says it's not true? If other women were to divorce and return home, they would simply want to die, but she is so high-profile that we have to participate..."
"If it weren't for Concubine Qi's words, who would be willing to attend this lousy banquet? I would think it's a loss of face to step into the Huayang Princess's residence! But she doesn't even realize it. Tell me, is there anyone at this banquet who really wants to come?"
As everyone was scorning and talking about it, a calm voice came: "This princess really wanted to come here."
Everyone was startled and looked back, then they saw the Sixth Princess Murong Jing.
Although the Sixth Princess had just passed the age of coming of age, as the only princess in the palace, her status was naturally extraordinary and noble. As soon as she appeared here, everyone knelt down to salute her.
The Sixth Princess frowned and asked everyone to stand up: "Why are you all surrounding me? This is Princess Huayang's snow-viewing banquet, please don't confuse the main and the secondary."
Everyone could only say "yes", then hurriedly stood up and bowed again to Shen Xiyue who was sitting on the main seat.
Shen Xiyue took everything in calmly and smiled slightly: "You're welcome, let's all enjoy ourselves today."
The Sixth Princess walked to the front of the table and sat down. She had obviously dressed up carefully today. The goose yellow dress made her look even more noble. Her eyebrows were as cold as a painting, and there was a little baby fat on her cheeks, which made her look a bit cute.
Shen Xiyue nodded to her and said, "Princess Hejing."
The Sixth Princess's cold eyes then showed some kindness: "Princess Huayang, your banquet is very good. This princess likes it very much."
Her voice was quite loud, and many people at the table heard it, and the contempt in their eyes became even deeper.
Shen Xiyue ignored them. Anyway, she set up the stage today just to invite people to watch the show, and the more lively it was, the better.
Soon there was another commotion outside, and a servant shouted loudly: "Qin Lang, the son of Duke Qin's mansion, and Miss Qin, the eldest daughter of Duke Qin's mansion, have arrived--"
Shen Xiyue subconsciously looked at the Sixth Princess, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Then two figures walked in. The man was tall and handsome, dressed in a dark suit, with his hair tied up with a jade crown. He looked very heroic. It was Qin Lang, the prince of Duke Qin. When the women at the table saw him, they blushed.
The Sixth Princess also shifted uncomfortably, her eyes following him.
The woman following behind Qin Lang was Qin Yu, the biological daughter that Duke Qin's Mansion had found. Now that Qin Qing was involved in the Jiangnan case and pleaded guilty, Duke Qin's Mansion restored order and restored Qin Yu's status as the eldest daughter.
The young masters and young ladies from the noble families present knew all this, but Qin Qing was also a well-behaved person in the capital. For a moment, the eyes that fell on Qin Yu had different expressions.
Qin Yu grew up in the countryside, and she probably hasn't learned all the rules and etiquette in the capital. This time Qin Lang brought her out, perhaps to let her see the world, but Qin Yu couldn't hide the timidity in her eyes, and some people began to laugh with their hands covering their mouths.
"This is the biological daughter that the Qin family found. She had been hiding herself before and dared not see anyone. Now that I see her today, she is just like this!"
The voice was not loud, but Qin Lang was a martial artist with extraordinary hearing. When he heard this, he immediately frowned and glared at him.
However, there were only female guests over there, so he couldn't just stare at them all the time. So he led Qin Yu a few steps towards Shen Xiyue, bowed his hands, and said earnestly: "Princess Huayang, this is my sister's first time attending a banquet. I hope you will take the trouble to take care of her. Qin Lang will be very grateful."
Seeing this, Qin Yu also bowed politely: "Princess Huayang, how are you?"
Shen Xiyue smiled and helped Qin Yu to stand up. Qin Yu just stood up and Qin Lang gave her an approving smile. Qin Yu was encouraged and the timidity in her eyes dissipated a lot.
I have to say that a man like Qin Lang is indeed very charming. He comes from a family of military generals, is tall and heroic, and his words and deeds are extremely polite and generous. No wonder the Sixth Princess admires him.
Shen Xiyue's mind moved, and she looked at the Sixth Princess and said in a gentle voice: "Princess Hejing, there are many guests at the banquet today. Could you please take care of Miss Qin for me?"
Shen Xiyue blinked as she spoke, and the Sixth Princess felt a little embarrassed and annoyed. She had already said that she didn't mean that, so why did she still misunderstand her?
But she clearly didn't want to miss this opportunity, so she nodded reservedly: "Miss Qin, please come and sit at the same table with me."
"Uh, yes, okay..." Qin Yu looked back at Qin Lang, and seeing that her brother did not refuse, she picked up her skirt and ran towards the Sixth Princess.
Qin Lang saw Qin Yu sitting down, and bowed to the Sixth Princess again: "In that case, Qin Lang thanks the Sixth Princess for her kindness."
The Sixth Princess held her princess's airs, raised her chin slightly to accept his greeting, and curved her lips: "It's just a small favor, Prince Qin, don't worry."
Qin Lang smiled back at the Sixth Princess, turned to look at Qin Yu, and said, "Xiao Yu, don't be afraid. Have fun with the princess."
Qin Yu seemed to be quite excited as well, and nodded vigorously: "Brother, I understand."
Qin Lang then turned and walked towards the men's table. The Sixth Princess followed Qin Lang until he was out of sight. Then she looked away and turned to look at Qin Yu, who was sitting next to her. She whispered, "Your brother treats you very well."
Qin Yu smiled shyly: "Well, my brother is a very good person. Princess, my brother asked me to follow you, which means you are also a good person..."
Shen Xiyue looked at the two of them talking and smiled. She never thought that one day she would become a matchmaker. Just as she was feeling emotional, a voice came from outside: "The family of Minister of Industry Gu has arrived--"
