Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

Madam Yao stood up, walked to Ye Yanran, and said in a low voice, "It's actually very simple for Madam to ruin the Linjiang Feast. All you have to do is tamper with the dishes."

"The Linjiang Banquet will use the freshest dishes of the day. We only need to use a little trick on the way to make the dishes from the kitchen of the palace be delivered a few hours later."

"If the banquet cannot start normally, it will be enough to keep Princess Qin busy."

"If she can fix the problem with the dishes, then we can also fix the tableware."

"For such a large banquet, the tableware for each table is very important. We don't have to worry about the cheap tableware, but we only need to hide one set for the main table. I'm afraid Ye Jintang will cry."

Ye Yanran thought about it and smiled instantly.

If everyone on the table has the same tableware, no one will say anything, but if one person's tableware is different from the others, then things will become difficult to say.

If the Princess of Qin ordered a special set of tableware for herself, the others at the table would have to wonder, is the Princess of Qin deliberately showing off her status? That's why she ordered a special set of tableware for herself.

If it were someone else, people would think too much and think that the Princess of Qin was treating her differently.

In this way, Ye Jintang is in a difficult position and will end up offending people no matter what he does.

"My lady, you need to send someone smarter."

Ye Yanran smiled very proudly.

"The King of Qi has already planted many spies in the King of Qin's Palace. He can just find someone to handle these small matters."

"That's great."

Madam Yao flattered Ye Yanran so much that she even thought she had already taken control of the Prince Qin's Mansion.

There are many ladies in the capital who share Ye Yanran's views. In fact, everyone knows the current situation in the Prince Qin's Mansion.

For a moment, everyone was curious about how Ye Jintang would organize the Linjiang Banquet.

Especially the Imperial Noble Consort Dehui in the palace.

Her understanding of the Prince Qin's Mansion is probably not much worse than Xiao Mo's.

Over the years, she has been controlling the income of the Prince Qin's Mansion and consuming the silver in the mansion. As far as she knows, before Xiao Mo got married, there were only 2 taels of silver in the mansion's account.

This amount of silver can barely maintain the daily operation of the Qin Palace.

If Ye Jintang held a riverside banquet that was too lavish, everyone in the Qin Palace would probably be left starving.

If it is too shabby, it is better not to do it, so as to avoid being criticized.

For a moment, Imperial Noble Consort Dehui couldn't understand what Ye Jintang was up to.

"Madam Hua, can you help me figure out what is going on with Ye Jintang's Riverside Banquet? I don't quite understand."

Noble Consort Dehui put down the brush in her hand. Today, Emperor Jingdi threw all the memorials to her on the pretext of having a headache.

She had been in the imperial study, reviewing memorials for two hours, and her wrist was a little sore.

"My Lady, in my opinion, Ye Jintang is just trying to save face for herself. There were only a few people at the wedding banquet when she married the King of Qin."

"I asked someone to find out. Princess Qin sent out more than 60 invitations in total. She invited almost all the ladies from the noble families in the capital."

Hearing this, Imperial Noble Consort Dehui couldn't help but laugh.

"She is still a little young. If she can't stand such a small thing, how can she accomplish anything big?"

"Send someone to keep an eye on her and see what Princess Qin is up to."

"Yes."

Almost everyone was not optimistic about Ye Jintang. On the one hand, they felt that she was young and had no capable managers around her. They were afraid that hosting the Linjiang Banquet would end up causing a lot of jokes.

Secondly, the aristocratic families who were slightly more informed knew that the King of Qin did not have much money. Without money, how could Ye Jintang hold the Riverside Banquet?

For a moment, many people were staring at Prince Qin's Mansion. Some were worried that Ye Jintang might mess up the Linjiang Banquet, while others were waiting to see a fool of themselves, feeling that Ye Jintang was overestimating his own abilities and would do anything to show off.

However, Ye Jintang did not take these rumors seriously. Let others say whatever they want. Her reputation was earned by herself. It wouldn't take long for her to make everyone look at her with admiration.

Nanny Zhang was an efficient person. She seemed to have memorized all the items needed for the banquet and would immediately report to Ye Jintang if anything was missing.

Ye Jintang's space is like a treasure chest, with everything you need.

After all, the warehouse of the Marquis of Danyang’s Mansion is not just for decoration, it also contains the things left by her parents.

Although Mrs. Wen is the daughter of a merchant, her aesthetic taste is still very good. There is not a single piece of rag in her warehouse.

Whatever Nanny Zhang needed, Ye Jintang would get it for her in the first place.

In just four days, everything needed for the banquet was ready.

Ye Jintang did not expect that Nanny Zhang would act so quickly.

"Madam Zhang, have you ever held a riverside banquet before?"

“That was ten years ago.”

Nanny Zhang looked at Ye Jintang with pride.

"No wonder you are so familiar with Linjiangyan."

Ye Jintang did not say much about this matter. Nanny Zhang used to be the managing nanny of a wealthy family in the capital. If she had not been involved in a military pay embezzlement case due to a catastrophe, she would not have been sold out.

In the room, Ye Jintang and Nanny Zhang were talking about the banquet when they heard the sound of a wheelchair outside the door.

After a while, Xiao Mo came into the room.

Nanny Zhang was a woman with sharp eyes and she immediately got up and left.

"Jintang, as soon as I returned to the palace, I heard that you were going to hold a riverside banquet."

"Didn't I tell the prince about this?"

Ye Jintang looked at Xiao Mo with confusion.

Three days ago, Xiao Mo said that he had to go out for something. She was busy organizing the Linjiang Banquet. She hadn't seen him for three days and really didn't remember whether she had mentioned it to him.

"Of course not. Now everyone in the capital knows that Princess Qin is going to hold a riverside banquet, and I, the prince, am the last one to know about it."

Xiao Mo was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He felt that he was really incompetent to be a prince.

"Ah? I was negligent.

She was so busy that she really forgot about him. In her opinion, hosting the Linjiang Banquet was her business, and Xiao Mo was just a background board and of no use.

"It will cost a lot of money to hold the Linjiang Banquet. Do you have enough money?"

"Just barely enough."

Xiao Mo placed a stack of banknotes on the small table next to Ye Jintang.

"Take this money. This is your first riverside banquet, so it can't be too shabby."

"Oh?"

Ye Jintang picked up the silver bills on the small table and counted them, finding about five thousand taels of silver.

"Where did the prince get this silver?"

"I got it from the clinic. Consider it an advance payment of the 500,000 taels of silver."

"Jintang, I know you have money, but when the palace holds a banquet, it's not right for the princess to use her own pocket money to pay for it."

"Your Majesty is right. Then I won't be polite with you."

Ye Jintang folded the banknotes and put them directly into a box at hand.
