Not far away, Xie Xian leaned against the pillar and said pretentiously, "Oh, you are worthy of being the princess. Even the way you fall into the water is different from others!"

Puff! Qian Duoduo, who had been paying attention to her from the beginning, couldn't help laughing when he heard Xie Xian's sarcastic words.

Just now when Xie Xian handed the thing to Jiu Zifu, many people saw it and guessed what Xie Xian gave. They all thought in their hearts that this Queen of the North was an honest girl.

But when she saw the smile in Xie Xian's eyes, she knew that this person was probably a little fox.

When Xie Xian heard the laughter, she turned around and saw a woman in a sky-blue gauze robe. Although she didn't have many jewelry on her, the dark butterfly patterns on the hem of her skirt were all different.

"Who is your sister?" Xie Xian only felt that the noble lady in front of her had a friendly smile and had no ill will towards her.

"What a sweet little mouth!" Qian Duoduo motioned Xie Xian to hide behind him, "It's a mess over there, don't let others get hurt!"

Xie Xian grinned: "We are already in the pool anyway, it would be a shame if I don't splash him with water!"

"Girl, you are so brave!"

"My sister is standing in the front row watching the fun." The two of them exchanged a few words, and they became more certain that they were all spectators.

Not long after, Li Xi's angry scream was heard from the back of the main hall: "Jiu Zifu, you idiot, idiot!"

A cup of tea later, Jiuzifu came out with a slap on his face and a few pieces of paper dripping with ink in his hands.

A cold look flashed across Xie Xian's eyes. I have given the things to them. As for whether they can afford it or not, it is none of her business.

"What's so good about this? Ah Xian, come with me. It's rare to meet such an interesting person, I must let everyone get to know him." Qian Duoduo was in a good mood and pulled Xie Xian to the front hall.

Xie Xian felt a little warm in her heart. Sister Qian was afraid that the princess would cause trouble for her again, so she took Xie Xian to move among the noble ladies.

"Is this the Queen of the North?"

"Hey! She's still such a delicate young lady!" Several married women were chatting quite freely.

The topic went off topic, and a noble lady talked about family matters: "Everyone says that man is useless. He not only spent his wife's dowry but also wanted to marry a concubine. My niece is almost sick to death!"

Others were also sighing, and Xie Xian suddenly interrupted, "If you have a child, just kill the father and keep the child!"

The surroundings suddenly became quiet. The lady who was speaking opened her eyes wide, her pupils shrank slightly, she took a deep breath, tried to control her expression, and chuckled, "Oh, you can't say that. We women in the back house are always soft-hearted."

After exchanging glances, they said, "Take your time. There's no rush." ​​The more natural your death, the less likely you will be criticized.

As the conversation deepened, everyone found that many of Xie Xian's views were inexplicably comforting.

They are all the wives of the wealthy families. Not only do they have to manage the household chores, but they also have to worry about their husbands being displeased by them due to their aging and fading looks.

“The economic base determines the superstructure. If you don’t like someone, cut off his food supply and let him go hungry for a few meals, he will become obedient!” What’s the point of a grown-up son being out of the control of his mother? If he wants to secretly get engaged to a girl from a brothel, he will naturally become obedient after being cut off from food and money and living as a farmer for a few days.

Because this is a circle with a lot of money, everyone is quite wealthy.

The conversation here was in full swing. Everyone liked Xie Xian more and more. It was rare to find a girl so pleasing to their eyes, so they all asked if she was engaged. When they learned that Xie Xian was going to marry into the family, they felt a little regretful but also understandable.

As for those words just now, Xie Xian, a girl, really couldn't resist. And when she spoke, her demeanor was natural, she said what she thought, and the confidence that radiated from the inside out was very likable.

At the beginning of the banquet, the eldest princess sat at the head of the table. Although her hair was covered with pearls and her clothes were elegant and luxurious, her expression made people who didn't know her think that everyone owed her money!

A group of maids followed behind her, trembling with fear and serving her. Even when her most favored lovers in the past flirted with her, Li Xi did not even smile back.

Li Xi sat at the top, with a pearl curtain in front of him.

Everyone had heard what had just happened. They saw that the princess was unhappy, with her head down and her eyes flying around, and then she lowered her head and ate and drank.

Xie Xian had just taken a few bites when she noticed a pair of eyes directed at her. She looked up and almost laughed out loud.

Jiu Zifu had a small face and looked at Xie Xian with resentment. He did not react when he fell into the water. After being scolded by Li Xi, he suddenly realized that he had been tricked again.

He felt that his young heart was severely hurt. He trusted Xie Xian so much in vain, but the other party dug a big hole for him and buried him. Looking at the girl in red eating with relish opposite him, Jiuzifu felt exhausted both physically and mentally.

What could he do? He couldn't beat the other person, nor could he scold him. His life was in the other person's hands. He felt so unlucky. He must go to Xishan Temple someday to get rid of the bad luck.

As the banquet was going on, Xie Xian feasted her eyes with the performances of dancers and actors. It was true that the singing and dancing at high-end banquets were different. These dancers were dressed revealingly and their movements were bold and provocative. Who said that the ancients were not open-minded? Look at these slender waists.

Well, the movements are very charming and seductive, but why does this beauty have a Adam’s apple?

Xie Xian was so absorbed in watching that when she turned around, she almost spit out her tea. She quickly looked at the other dancers, and luckily, they were all women.

Glancing at the seat at the top, Xie Xian sighed, she was indeed the eldest princess, even the dancers' performance was to her liking.

Li Xi's expression finally calmed down with the help of his two lovers, but he unfortunately met Xie Xian's eyes when she looked over here.

Xie Xian raised her glass to express her admiration, but in Li Xi's eyes, it was just naked mockery.

The seats for the male guests were not far from here. Li You, who was in the lead, had been paying attention to this place. His aunt did things based on her own preferences. Although this was her confidence as a princess, it was unwise to be so reckless and make enemies for herself.

The lady of the Xie family is not as simple as she seems.

Xie Xian looked down from where the princess was sitting. Wow! There were quite a lot of familiar faces, including Prince Xiang, and Cui Jing.

Cui Jing saw Xie Xian looking over and raised his glass and smiled. Xie Xian replied, "There are quite a lot of people here today. The princess may have other plans!" Xie Xian didn't think that such a big event was just for her.

She has completed the preliminary task, and now all she has to do is wait and see others complete the main storyline.

Sure enough, after three rounds of drinks, the singing and dancing stopped, and everyone tactfully quieted down.

"Today is a beautiful spring day. I had a feeling a few days ago. A grand event is coming. I want to select talents for Kuaiji County. No matter their family background or origin, only their talent will be selected. You can recommend talents to help us achieve this grand event."

Oh, so it's a job fair! As soon as Li Xi said this, several of his subordinates said that they would definitely help His Highness check it.
