As expected by everyone, she became the wife of the Marquis after being married off

Shen Lanyue found that she could no longer foresee how the future would develop based on what had already changed, just like now she wondered whether Meng Changce was still in contact with Shen Wanqing.

In my previous life, I didn’t pay much attention to the news of the power struggle in the capital at this time. I just knew about a few major events.

Just like Shen Wanqing did not go to the temple to be punished in her previous life like she is now, and she did not marry Meng Changce, but was about to be married to Li Wenxuan at the Mid-Autumn Family Dinner!

The Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner is coming soon. What she is worried about now is her own change and who will be Li Wenxuan’s main wife?

There was no chance that Shen Wanqing and Sun Shuhao would be asked by the Queen to marry Li Jing at this banquet.

"What is this?" Shen Lanyue asked as she looked at the post handed over by Meng Changce.

"Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet. This is your first time attending a family banquet in the palace. You must prepare well."

Shen Lanyue was stunned. Looking at the invitation in her hand, she realized that she was already the Marquis's wife in this life. Given Meng Changce's apparent level of favor, she was able to attend this banquet.

"Yes, don't worry, husband."

Meng Changce glanced at her, saw her worry, took her hand and comforted her, "Just treat it as an ordinary family dinner, we just need to eat well."

Shen Lanyue glared at him and said angrily, "My Lord, I dare not. You are corrupting me."

"Ha ha ha ha"

Although Shen Lanyue was flirting with him, she still had to be fully prepared when she really entered the palace. In her previous life, she had also participated in this royal palace banquet, but at that time she was the royal daughter-in-law, so she dared not make any mistakes.

Of course, she could not escape the targeting of Sun Shuhao, who had become the Fourth Prince's consort. The difference in this life was that she did not have to be so conspicuous, but she could not lose her sense of proportion.

Meng Changce's point is that he should neither lose his sense of proportion nor stand out too much.

-------------------------------------

The Mid-Autumn Festival is naturally an important day for family reunion, and the capital city is extremely lively and festive on this day.

Shen Wanqing, who was far away in Qiyin Temple, also received care from her family. However, this time it was sent by Shen Zian, the person her family despised the most, which was a bit unexpected.

Shen Wanqing asked anxiously: "Does our family have a chance to enter the palace this time?"

Shen Zian looked at her strangely and said, "Second sister, what are you thinking about? How can our family be qualified to attend the banquet in the palace?"

Shen Wanqing ignored the implication of his words, but remembered something that the Third Prince had promised her before, so she was eager to find out the truth.

"What about Sun Shu?" Shen Wanqing excitedly stepped forward and grabbed Shen Zian's arm and asked, "Did Shen Lanyue also enter the palace?"

Shen Zian looked at his own sister who looked like a madman, not like a peerless beauty at all. Hearing the jealousy towards his elder sister in her words, he frowned even more.

"The Sun family is still the same as before. My eldest sister is now the Marquis' wife, so naturally she will enter the palace."

Shen Zian pulled her hand away, looked at her dazed look after she answered her own question, and sighed.

"Second sister, take good care of yourself so that mother won't worry. I'll take my leave now."

After hearing the news about Shen Lanyue, Shen Wanqing couldn't help but tighten the handkerchief in her hand, and the jealousy in her heart became even stronger. She didn't even see Shen Zian's expression clearly, let alone hear his words.

She was immersed in her own resentment and did not pay attention to her brother's departure.

At the same time, at the palace gate, Shen Lanyue lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw the team of carriages and horses in front, and roughly guessed who they were.

Meng Changce leaned sideways to look at his wife's curious expression, with a gentle look in his eyes. If others saw it, they would also be able to see a hint of doting.

Shen Lanyue naturally noticed the gazes on her, and she lowered the curtain and smiled at him as if nothing had happened.

Meng Changce then pulled her hand over and held it tightly without saying anything.

When the carriage arrived at the palace gate, the men had to get off and walk. The same went for Meng Changce and his companions. They were guided into the banquet hall in the palace by a special eunuch.

The royal palace banquet is naturally very different from other banquets. As soon as you look at it, you can see the whole garden full of colors and thousands of palace maids shuttling back and forth.

The banquet was set up outdoors, which was the best place to enjoy the moon. The three seats at the top were those of the Queen Mother, the Empress, and the Emperor. They were now sitting there idle, waiting for their master to arrive.

There are not many positions for concubines below, which also means that not many people are qualified to come here. The others are some princes, royal relatives, and at the end are some ministers.

Of course, not all ministers can attend these events. They are only ministers who are valued by the emperor.

"My lord, my lady, please take your seats." After the leading eunuch directed Shen Lanyue and the others to their seats, he retreated respectfully.

After Meng Changce glanced around casually, he smiled and pulled Shen Lanyue to sit down at the table, and began to peel the nuts on the table lazily and casually.

Shen Lanyue also sat down with him, nodded slightly to the female relatives who looked at her, and then sat at the table properly.

It was not until a pile of peeled nuts was pushed in front of her that she glanced at Meng Changce who was smiling at her with a hint of surprise.

Meng Changce pulled her sleeve and raised his chin slightly to signal her to eat.

Shen Lanyue looked around, picked up a nut with a smile on her face, and put it in her mouth and started chewing it lightly.

Seeing that she was not so tense while eating and that there was a look of happiness on her face that she herself might not even notice, Meng Changce peeled the apples more enthusiastically.

Seeing that there were more people pushing in front of her, Shen Lanyue approached Meng Changce carefully and said, "Husband, it's enough to eat."

It is a light and coquettish dependence.

Meng Changce listened to it, looked at her with eyes as gentle as the calm river water, took the nuts in front of her and put them in his mouth.

Shen Lanyue discovered that the position they were sitting in was actually relatively far back among the royal relatives. In front of them were the princes, for example, the seat at the front right was the eldest princess's seat.

The eldest princess did not show up, and now it was Prince Jingyang, Wang Shuo, who was sitting there.

Moreover, Shen Lanyue noticed this dandy prince and felt as if there were nails under his butt, and he was moving restlessly.

Perhaps he noticed Shen Lanyue looking at him, the dandy prince narrowed his eyes naturally, a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth as he met her gaze, holding up the wine glass in one hand and said: "Marquis Changning, this is your new wife, she is really good-looking."

His voice was quite loud, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention to them.

Everyone in the capital knows that Marquis Changning and Prince Jingyang are birds of a feather, but the two have been at odds for a long time.
