In recent years, because of the eldest princess's reputation, wherever she goes, men, especially handsome young men, would avoid her for the sake of their own innocence.

The women did it for their reputation, fearing that if they spent more time together, they would get a reputation for being as dissolute as the eldest princess.

But now, no matter what they had thought in the past, seeing that it seemed safe, they were here to attend the eldest princess' banquet after all, and they had to please her without risking themselves.

Look, it hasn’t been long since then, but the cousin from the prime minister’s mansion has received so much reward that her maidservant behind her can hardly hold it all.

Those big, round night-shining pearls, the agate stones that were so red against the snow that they sparkled in their eyes, and the huge gold hairpins inlaid with pearls, and...

Gradually, men and women gathered around along the way, reciting poems aloud and chatting softly, making it very lively.

The eldest princess was satisfied. As expected, good-looking men brought good luck to her. Even her future fiancée could help her. Look at how those young men from noble families who used to dodge her now rushed to surround her.

Tsk, if she didn't have to be so reserved, she would have wanted to laugh three times right now. This would make her feel much more refreshed than getting a new handsome boy.

Thinking of this, she awarded Qianqian another jade bracelet. The young man who had just come over to compose a poem "Ode to the Plum Blossom" and was praised by the princess was dumbfounded for a moment, wondering why it wasn't for him.

The eldest princess saw it out of the corner of her eye but ignored it. With such appearance, what's the point of being a good poet? She didn't want her things to appear in the possession of such a person, humph!

However, afterwards, several good-looking young men and young ladies received rewards. Everyone then realized that the eldest princess today was purely looking at who was pretty.

During this time, Xiao Yuanchang also came closer and showed off, without even blinking an eye, leaving his obscure look facing all directions, and Liu Yinyin's slightly contemptuous look.

Xiao Yuanchang was angry, but he couldn't get angry. He didn't understand. Xiao Yuanhuai clearly didn't say anything, and his poems were quite good. Why didn't the princess give the prime minister's family any face at all!

The eldest princess didn't care what he thought. She was simply disgusted with the whole family. Today was not a place for the older generation. Otherwise, if Madam Xiao was here, she might not give her a good face. After all, she was a woman of temperament.

In this way, the eldest princess was coaxed into a happy mood all morning, and she was in high spirits at the lunch banquet as well. She even moved Qianqian's seat to the front, next to Xiao Yuanhuai.

Take a look at these two people sitting closer. The more you look at them, the more they look like a perfect match. Hmm, not bad, let’s enjoy!

Others: ...What did these two do? But now they won't think about anything romantic anymore, after all, they have never seen anyone take in a man's fiancée as a male concubine.

Many people thought that after the banquet was over, they would find an opportunity to seek advice.

Xiao Yuanchang was very dissatisfied with the way things were going. He sat down with a gloomy look on his face. Liu Yinyin had to remind him, "Yuanhuai, this is at the princess' banquet. You have to pay attention to your expression!"

But Xiao Yuanchang didn't expect that when he was feeling depressed, he felt a hint of disdain in the other person's words: "Why, Yinyin, you don't like me now, and you want to go to the front too!"

Liu Yinyin was stunned. She didn't understand why Xiao Yuanchang, who had always taken care of her, was being unreasonable and making a fuss when she kindly reminded him today?

But she couldn't get angry in this situation, so she could only hum softly, "Unreasonable." Then she started talking to the people around her and ignored him.

Now, Xiao Yuanchang, a severe patient of male chauvinism, became even angrier. However, at least he still had his reason and knew that this was not the place for him to vent his anger, and he could not leave early.

Feeling depressed, he drank one cup after another, and as he drank, the evil thoughts in his mind became magnified.

Qianqian was enjoying the delicious food in front. There were many people around the princess and that person was enjoying being complimented, so she didn't come any closer.

Just as he was enjoying himself, he heard someone coming to ask Xiao Yuanhuai to come: "Third Young Master, the eldest young master is drunk and it's not easy to make a noise here. I would like to trouble you to help send him back to his room to rest!"

This was still at the eldest princess's place. In order to maintain the dignity of the prime minister's mansion on the one hand, and on the other hand, he did not suspect anything, so he found an excuse, apologized to the eldest princess, and left.

But the eldest princess was not a smart person. Seeing the two brothers walking out one after the other, with one of them even walking unsteadily, she knew that the relationship between the two brothers was not that good, so she asked someone to follow them just in case.

Qianqian was also puzzled: "System, what do you think Xiao Yuanchang is up to? With his arrogant look, why would he come to Xiao Yuanhuai for help?"

The system kept the question a secret: "Host, which one do you want to hear first, good news or bad news?"

"Let's talk about the bad things first!"

The host was so leisurely that the system lost interest in keeping things in suspense: "…The bad news is that Xiao Yuanchang is trying to frame Xiao Yuanhuai, the good news is that the princess has sent someone to follow him!"

Qianqian was shocked: "What do you call this? This is called courting death, right? In such a short time, and in someone else's territory, has Xiao Yuanchang become successful? Or has he learned from his mother that his cerebellum is atrophied and he has no IQ?"

There was no way to explain this system, so I could only guess: "Maybe he drank too much!"

The eldest princess also had the same question as Qianqian, because her subordinates reported that Xiao Yuanchang had lit aphrodisiac in the resting place, the kind that was fast-acting and fast-evaporating, and he also arranged for his maid to be inside it.

The eldest princess was really confused. Is that it?

She was still a little curious, so she said, "Qianqian, your cousin has been gone for some time, so you shouldn't be worried." Then, without waiting for anyone to speak, she concluded, "Well, I know you are worried, so how about this, I will go with you to take a look!"

Qianqian: Good sister, since you said so, of course I will go and watch the fun.

So the eldest princess asked everyone else to continue the banquet, and she and Qianqian went to watch the show happily.

This kind of thing happens all the time. How could the eldest princess accompany them from beginning to end? She was older than them and still had her dignity. After this person left, they felt more at ease. A few people also looked at the empty seats thoughtfully.

When the princess and her entourage were on the way, Xiao Yuanhuai and her entourage just arrived at the door of the room. Xiao Yuanchang suddenly said that he wanted to go to the toilet and asked Xiao Yuanhuai to go in and wait for him, as he had something to say.

In this situation, Xiao Yuanhuai didn't believe that the other party had any good intentions, so he said that he could just wait in the yard. The scenery nearby was nice and it was a good time to enjoy the view.

Xiao Yuanchang narrowed his eyes. Since this man was not going along, don't blame him for going all out. Just as he was about to order the people around him to push Xiao Yuanhuai into the room, the eldest princess arrived.

"Alas, this drama is really not that exciting, Mr. Xiao, I didn't expect that you are not good-looking or talented in literature, and your style of doing things is just the superficial style of the backyard. Tsk tsk tsk, it's really crude, I can't stand it!"

When Xiao Yuanchang heard this, he turned around and saw a group of people. His face turned pale instantly and he sobered up. He forced a smile and said, "Your Highness, I was just joking with my brother!"

"Oh, so it was just a joke. I thought there was something in this room."

Xiao Yuanchang sweated profusely in an instant: "Your Highness, you are joking!"

"Hehe, Young Master Xiao has a good memory. I never joke around. Since it's nothing, and Young Master Xiao looks like he's drunk, you should go in and have a rest. Someone, send Young Master Xiao in!"
