When Yang Li was finally persuaded to come back by Nanny Liu, she saw Wen Yan surrounded by people like the moon surrounded by stars.
Yang Li sneered and said to Aunt Liu, "I don't think she needs me to pave the way for her. Don't you think she is good at pleasing people?"
Madam Liu didn't know what was going on, but seeing Wen Yan handling the ladies with ease, she didn't know what to say. She could only watch Yang Li leave, and she returned to Wen Yan.
Wen Yan saw her and asked jokingly, "Why? Your second young lady didn't come?"
Nanny Liu smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.
Peng Luoyun has never had a good impression of the Yang family. "Yang Li has been spoiled since she was a child. She is so old but still impetuous."
Wen Yan smiled, hinting: "If that's all, then it's not too frank, I'm just afraid that you don't have any good intentions in your heart."
The two looked at each other and smiled reservedly.
Madam Liu wished she could cover her ears. This Madam Wen really didn't play by the rules.
Peng Luoyun took Wen Yan's hand and said, "What do you want, Yang Li? I'll take you there."
Wen Yan smiled and said, "I'm afraid that's not appropriate."
"Why?"
Wen Yan did not answer, but just shook her head, "I am really happy to meet you today. As for why, you will know later."
Peng Luoyun didn't ask any more questions, but left with his servants.
It was almost time for the banquet to begin. Nanny Liu brought Wen Yan to the table. Yang Li pretended not to see her and continued talking to other people around him.
Wen Yan was not annoyed and sat quietly in her seat sipping tea.
Suddenly there was a cry of surprise from the door. If Wen Yan heard correctly, it seemed that someone was calling her name.
Wen Yan looked over and saw that it was Old Lady Wan and Xu Xiaorou, and a child who was about the same age as Wan Dongling.
Interesting, I didn't expect this family to come.
I just don’t know if she came as the princess’ mother-in-law or for something else.
Old Mrs. Wan and Xu Xiaorou looked as if they had seen a ghost. Wen Yan seemed to be in a good mood and smiled at them.
Xu Xiaorou quickly supported Old Lady Wan and whispered, "Mom, let's sit down first and talk later."
Old Mrs. Wan was at a loss and allowed her to support her.
Xu Xiaorou calmed down Old Lady Wan and asked in confusion, "That seat should be for the Yang family. The person next to her is Yang Li. I've seen her before."
Mrs. Wan was confused and surprised. "But that person looks exactly like Wen Yan!"
Xu Xiaorou suddenly thought of the rumors she had just heard, and her face suddenly turned bad: "Mom, I just heard that group of people say that the Yang family recently recognized a cousin, could it be Wen Yan?"
Old Mrs. Wan's mind was in a mess. She only knew that Wen Yan had been from Chunxing Village since she was a child. How could she be her cousin?
Suddenly, Mrs. Wan managed to squeeze out some memories from her mind: "No, it seems that she has a missing mother. Could it be that the mother is actually the daughter of the Yang family?"
The two people were very reluctant to believe this conclusion, but it seemed that there was no other possibility except this explanation.
Before the two finished their discussion, Princess Zhaoyang's procession arrived.
Wen Yan bowed with everyone else and then sat down. Out of the corner of her eye, Wan Gaofeng was there, and he and Princess Zhaoyang were looking at each other affectionately, looking very affectionate.
The maidservant beside Princess Zhaoyang received the signal and stepped forward and said loudly: "Today is a great day for the Princess's residence. The princess was diagnosed with pregnancy half a month ago, so today we invite you to taste the Princess's residence's century-old fine wine to celebrate together!"
Before she even sat down, Wen Yan bowed and congratulated everyone again.
I didn’t expect that the princess actually had another child. This Wan Gaofeng is really... a good sower.
Wen Yan complained in her heart.
After the announcement, the Spring Banquet officially began. Except for a few royal relatives, everyone else had arrived.
Xu Xiaorou looked at Wan Gaofeng, then at Wen Yan. She wanted to remind him, but she couldn't get away for the time being. Going forward for no reason would only arouse other people's suspicion! She could only wait for the right opportunity.
Suddenly, Princess Zhaoyang, who was sitting upstairs, looked at Yang Li and said, "I heard that the Yang family has adopted a cousin. Is she here today?"
The princess and Yang Li are old acquaintances and are about the same age, so they have a good relationship.
Yang Li didn't want Wen Yan to show up in front of everyone, so she just said coldly: "She's just a country girl, why would she pollute the princess's eyes?"
Zhaoyang knew that Yang Li didn't like this cousin, so she winked at Yang Li and said, "It doesn't matter where she came from. Come out and let me see her."
As soon as Yang Li saw the princess's eyes, she knew that Wen Yan was going to be in trouble, so she gloated over her misfortune and stopped trying to stop her: "Yes."
Wen Yan curled her lips slightly, walked slowly to Princess Zhaoyang, and spoke softly: "Wen Yan greets the princess, greets... the prince consort."
Wan Gaofeng suddenly raised his head. Who else could it be but Wen Yan standing in front of him?
Princess Zhaoyang naturally knew the name Wen Yan, but why did this person's face look so similar to that of her former sister? !
She looked at Wan Gaofeng with doubt and asked slowly, "Where did you come to the capital from?"
Wen Yan: "Xiahe Town."
Princess Zhaoyang was stunned for a moment. She had found so many people to assassinate her, but they had never succeeded.
What was going on now? He actually came right in front of her?!
The others didn't know why the princess reacted so strongly to Wen Yan, and looked at each other in confusion.
At this moment, someone outside announced, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness the King of Chu has arrived!"
Yuan Hesong originally didn't want to come over. After all, Zhaoyang was not close to him and was Yuan Xin's younger sister. When he saw Zhaoyang, it was as if he was looking at Yuan Xin.
Besides, even if Zhaoyang was pregnant, what did it have to do with him? But Yuan Xin liked to act like a brother, so he had to agree.
Yuan Hesong was already dissatisfied. When he saw a woman kneeling in front of the hall just as the banquet started, he couldn't help but frowned: "What's going on?"
Zhaoyang's heart was in turmoil, and he quickly asked Wen Yan to go back and sit down, "Brother Crown Prince, it's okay, it's just that the Yang family recognized a cousin, and I was just curious to take a look."
Cousin? The prince was dazed for a moment. His Yun'er was also the cousin of the Yang family.
Subconsciously, he looked at Wen Yan and couldn't help being stunned.
Why is this face so similar to his Yun'er?
