The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

When the guests present saw Yun Mujiu and Princess Gaoyang finished their conversation, they hurriedly tried to smooth things over. They first praised the food at the banquet, and then expressed their envy of Yun Mujiu, praising King Ye and Princess Ye for their extremely loving relationship and envied everyone else.

The atmosphere became lively again, and the musicians and dancers began their performance again.

Bei Liyi's eyes were filled with jealousy, and Yun Shirou was so angry that she put her hand on her chest, letting Yun Mujiu steal the spotlight again.

At that time, Ye Xiaohan was playing chess with the emperor in the imperial study.

He guessed that Yun Mujiu should have received the food he had asked someone to prepare.

At the same time, it is estimated that the Cao family received the "surprise" gift he prepared.

In the front yard of the Princess's residence, Prince Consort Cao returned after being away for a while.

What no one noticed was that Prince Consort Cao's expression turned stiff and his eyes showed unclear emotions.

At the same time, Cao also returned to the garden. Not long ago, her maid received a letter from a mysterious person. After reading the contents of the letter, she was shocked and took several deep breaths before slowly hiding the emotions on her face.

After Cao sat down, she heard another maid talk about what had just happened. Then she looked at the food on Yun Mujiu's table and her face looked a little embarrassed.

I didn't expect Princess Gaoyang to be so petty and want to make things difficult for Princess Ye in terms of food. If this news were to spread widely, it would be a disgrace to the Cao family!

In the front yard, Prince Consort Cao regained his spirits and began to entertain the guests again.

He looked at his father and brother and found that their expressions were also a little strange. Then he realized that they also received a letter. Oh! What a family scandal!

Ye Chuhe looked calm and sipped his tea slowly and leisurely.

Ye Chuhe seldom attends banquets hosted by non-royal palace personnel.

Although Princess Gaoyang is the emperor's sister, she has already married into the Cao family. Strictly speaking, the banquet held by Princess Gaoyang is not of the level held in the imperial palace.

This was the first time that Ye Chuhe had come to the royal aunt's residence to attend a tea party since he could remember.

During the banquet, officials would occasionally come forward to talk to Ye Chuhe, and Ye Chuhe would respond politely.

The Right Prime Minister looked at Ye Chuhe's gentle and elegant behavior, sighed slightly, and said to an official next to him: "Your Highness King He is still good, but it's a pity that his legs can't walk."

The official nodded and said in a very low voice: "If King He is in good health, who knows who will be the crown prince now?"

Wanyan Gu walked around and found that the prince did not show up. Thinking of the rumors about the prince that had been uploaded frequently recently, he couldn't help but smile.

Although the rumors about the prince have basically been suppressed, he believes that many people have begun to doubt the prince's ability and character.

Last time, he used the Nami sisters to test the prince, and he had confirmed that the prince really had a problem with his offspring. Now that he had the prince's handle, he would no longer be as wary of him as before.

Wanyan Gu picked up a cup of tea and came to Ye Chuhe to offer him tea. Ye Chuhe was in poor health, so he naturally couldn't drink.

"Your Highness, I offer you a cup of tea."

"Okay, Prince Wan." Ye Chuhe did not refuse and responded to Wan Yan Gu politely. The two gradually began to communicate and chatted about some topics.

Meng Ninglang was bored sitting alone, so he went to find Su Wen. But Su Wen didn't know how to drink tea, so Meng Ninglang felt a little disappointed. He couldn't help but think of his cousin and Bai Yanshuang, and was a little worried about his cousin's current situation.

Meng Ninglang had recently sought a military official position in the court. At this moment, he was sitting together with Su Wen. With his handsome appearance and outstanding temperament, he also attracted a lot of attention.

Many people pondered Meng Linglang's appearance, temperament, and family background, and thought of some unmarried young women in their own families, so they rushed to Meng Ninglang and tried to make friends with him. Even if they couldn't become relatives, it wouldn't hurt to get to know him, after all, Duke Meng still had a certain amount of power.

Meng Ninglang groaned in his heart. He came here to protect Yun Mujiu, but now he was blocked by a group of people. If he couldn't take good care of Yun Mujiu, he would be scolded by his grandfather when he returned!

Over in the garden, everyone had almost finished eating and watched some singing and dancing performances.

During the pauses in the show, everyone was free to go to other people's seats. Yun Mujiu called Bai Yanshuang, Princess Ji Ling and You Luoyan, and gave them most of the food. At first, the three girls refused, saying that they dared not and were embarrassed to eat the food that Ye Wang specially prepared for Mujiu.

Yun Mujiu smiled and said that she really couldn't eat so much, and the prince knew that she had friends and specially prepared some extra food, so everyone accepted it.

While people were performing on the stage, the guests below were also discussing various topics, one of the important topics being about the Laurel Tower and the Hundred Flowers Garden.

Everyone was either discussing the medicinal food of Yueguilou or the various products of Baihuayuan. Women love beauty the most, and the Baihuayuan, which suddenly appeared, has captured the hearts of a large number of women in the capital.

A lady asked, "Did you buy the latest skin care products from Baihuayuan?"

"Oh, I wanted to buy it, but it was sold out before I could buy it."

Another lady joined in the conversation: "Yes, yes, I asked many people to buy it, but they couldn't get it."

"Fortunately, I had already applied for a VIP card when Baihuayuan and Yueguilou first opened." A woman said thankfully.

Many people began to speculate about the identities of the owners of Yuegui Tower and Baihua Garden. If that person was an unmarried young man, they would also want to marry him!

Yun Mujiu listened to everyone's chattering and silently lowered his head amid the teasing looks from Bai Yanshuang and her two sisters.

Princess Gaoyang smiled, but in fact she was already full of hatred. Her business was frequently suppressed, including by the owners of Yueguilou and Baihuayuan.

When she turned her head and looked down, she found that Yun Mujiu looked calm. Now was not the time to be angry, she had to start her plan as soon as possible - to give Yun Mujiu a good slap in the face.

Princess Gaoyang stood up and ordered the servants: "Bring up another batch of good tea." Now it was time to perform.

Many young ladies had made preparations in advance, waiting to perform at the banquet.

Everyone returned to their respective seats, the dishes on the table were removed, and some fruits and snacks were served instead.

A little girl in red jumped out and looked at Yun Mujiu passionately.

"Princess Ye, I heard that you are good at playing the piano. I wonder if I can learn from you."

Yun Mujiu looked calm and did not respond.

Bei Liyi couldn't sit still anymore and stood up. If she didn't want to spar, she could just offer her skills instead.

"Princess Ye, you played the piano better than me at the last envoy's palace banquet. I wonder if you can show us your skills at the tea party specially hosted by the princess this time? It will be a good opportunity to open our eyes."

Yun Mujiu sipped his tea leisurely and still did not respond.

Cao and the others had subtle expressions. Princess Ye was the princess of a prince. Wouldn't it be a loss of face for her to play the piano at the banquet to entertain everyone?

But Princess Ye has not responded. What is she thinking?
