Spring in the East Palace

She remained calm and sat quietly in her seat.

The scene was already bustling with singing and dancing, servants were walking back and forth pouring wine, and musicians were playing music to liven up the atmosphere.

Shen Zhenzhen obviously felt like a fish in water under such circumstances.

Shen Zhenzhen might not be able to marry up to the princesses and duchesses above her, but people of the same status still admire Shen Zhenzhen to some extent.

Not to mention that there were many people who went back and forth to show their goodwill to Shen Changsheng just to have a chance to talk to Shen Zhenzhen.

This made Shen Zhenzhen extremely proud.

Shen Muyin didn't take it too seriously and remained very low-key.

Soon, a servant's voice came from outside: "The emperor has arrived."

Everyone at the banquet put down what they were holding, knelt down, and said in a loud voice: "Your Highness pays respect to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."

"Everyone, please stand up." Qin Yue waved his sleeves, and everyone stood up.

Shen Muyin stood up neither humbly nor arrogantly, but the corner of her eye fell on another bright yellow figure.

Qin Chuyan just followed Qin Yue, but almost the moment Shen Muyin looked at him, Qin Chuyan's eyes accurately caught Shen Muyin.

Shen Muyin coughed lightly and immediately lowered his head.

Then she heard the man's light laughter, directed at her.

That burning gaze fell on him, as if probing something, and Shen Muyin felt a little numb on his scalp.

But in this situation, Shen Muyin said nothing and stood quietly in the corner.

Suddenly, a familiar scent of ambergris passed by Shen Muyin.

Shen Muyin was surprised. Dong Gong walked in front of her without her knowing when, seemingly casually.

But when no one was paying attention, those hands suddenly held Shen Muyin's hands. The wide sleeves just blocked the scene and no one noticed.

Only Shen Muyin noticed the warm feeling on his fingertips.

But on the surface, she remained calm.

When I looked up again, Donggong had walked away, but the people around him kept their heads down, looking extremely nervous.

After all, this is the East Palace.

Shen Muyin lowered his head and chuckled. This person is really——

It was not until the East Palace and the Emperor sat down in the main seats that the people in front of them slowly took their seats.

"This annual hunting ground is a grand event in the State of Yan. I am very happy, as it represents the strength and prosperity of the State of Yan. This year, as in previous years, I will reward handsomely those who hunt the most." Qin Yue's tone also sounded extremely excited.

Everyone at the scene was cheering and everyone was eager to try.

The atmosphere was extremely lively, except for Donggong, who didn't seem to take the scene too seriously.

The Eastern Palace never participated in the hunting grounds in previous years.

Some people said that Donggong was disdainful, while others said that Donggong was afraid of losing face in the enclosure. After all, being the first every year was an eye-catching achievement.

But no one dared to say this in front of the East Palace.

"We are fully prepared and are just waiting for the emperor's order." All the ministers responded in unison.

Qin Yue nodded: "Okay, let's drink happily today, and hunt tomorrow. I am waiting for good news from you, my dear ministers!"

As soon as Qin Yue finished speaking, the musicians started playing music, and the dancers walked in and danced. The people at the scene were chatting happily.

The women gathered together, chatting about Kyoto gossip and each other's jewellery. When they got excited, they covered their mouths and laughed. The atmosphere was quite lively.

"By the way, there is a new embroidery studio in Kyoto. Strangely enough, the shop is open but not doing business." The daughter of the minister suddenly said.

Shen Muyin paused for a moment while pouring the tea, but soon continued drinking it calmly.

"Any store that's open but not doing business, I think it's probably a scam. There are so many tricks nowadays." Another rich girl echoed.

Soon, she looked at Fuling and Princess Xuanhe who were sitting not far away, and said flatteringly: "Besides, the best embroiderers in Kyoto are all in the palace, making clothes for the princesses and ladies. How can there be any good stuff outside?"

The female relatives nodded.

"Besides, if we really have to compare, who can compare to the embroiderer in Prince Xuan's Mansion? In order to make Princess Xuanhe happy, Lord Nangong found the best embroiderer to embroider specifically for Princess Xuanhe." As she said this, she couldn't help but feel envious.

In the entire Yan Kingdom, the most envied couple are Princess Xuanhe and Nangong Sheng. Not only are they talented and beautiful, but their relationship is so good that it makes people jealous.

It seemed as if Lord Nangong gave all his love to Princess Xuanhe, and Princess Xuanhe only had Lord Nangong in her eyes. Every time they appeared, people felt emotional and envied the mandarin ducks instead of the immortals.

Shen Muyin listened quietly, without showing any emotion.

She doesn't need to be anxious, because some people will lose patience after repeated failures.

Suddenly, Dong Jin walked quietly to the side of Shen Muyin and whispered, "Miss, I have already done what you asked me to do."

But Dong Jin looked at Shen Muyin without knowing what Shen Muyin was going to do.

But the one in the East Palace said that as long as it was Shen Muyin's order, he would do it unconditionally.

Shen Muyin didn't ask Dong Jin to do anything troublesome. He just stole Princess Xuanhe's embroidered handkerchief and then destroyed it.

Dong Jin thought that if Shen Muyin liked it, he could just ask the Crown Prince for it.

No matter how skilled the embroiderers in Prince Xuan's mansion are, they can't be better than those in the Eastern Palace. Besides, Dong Jin has seen Shen Muyin's embroidery, and now when she looks at the ones outside, she feels that she can't stand their standards.

"Yeah." Shen Muyin just responded lightly, without any impatience.

Dong Jin was smart enough to stop talking and just stood quietly beside Shen Muyin.

Almost at the same time, Princess Xuanhe suddenly exclaimed, "My handkerchief is missing."

Princess Fuling and the people around her looked over and said, "Is it lost? There are probably too many people here, so it's hard to find it."

Princess Xuanhe was a little anxious and bit her lip without saying a word. Princess Fuling understood at once that the handkerchief might have been given by Nangong Sheng, which was why she took it so seriously.

"Wait until later, when everyone has left, and let the servants look for it." Fuling advised.

Princess Xuanhe did not respond and seemed to be in a low mood.

The people around probably knew what Princess Xuanhe was thinking. Firstly, she lost something she liked, and secondly, this thing was given to her by Lord Nangong.

At this moment, Shen Zhenzhen stood up with a smile on her face and walked towards Princess Xuanhe.

Fuling's expression became particularly ugly when she saw Shen Zhenzhen, and she didn't want to give him any face at all.

Shen Zhenzhen also knew that Fuling disliked her, so she still smiled generously at Princess Fuling.

Then Shen Zhenzhen looked at Princess Xuanhe calmly.

"Your humble servant greets Princess Xuanhe." Shen Zhenzhen paid her respects.

The women around covered their mouths and laughed. Everyone knew about the joke Shen Zhenzhen had made in front of Princess Fuling and Princess Xuanhe.
