The princess has super powers and space, so what's wrong with being a little arrogant?

However, there are always unexpected things. Xiao Yibai sneered, "The Chen family is the eldest brother's maternal family. We must help them maintain this relationship."

Qi Heng knew Xiao Yibai's plan, and he clicked his tongue twice, "How can Prince Rui be so stubborn that he keeps targeting you? If Princess Rui knew that what happened today was your doing, she would probably regret it to death."

Last year, during the New Year's Eve banquet, he was tricked in the palace and nearly had an affair with a concubine. Fortunately, Ji Yun accompanied him into the palace that day, gave him a few injections, and brought him back home. To mitigate the effects of the medicine, he soaked in cold water for over an hour in the middle of winter, catching a cold. Eventually, his people discovered that Princess Rui had set him up, so today, he showed no mercy to anyone but Princess Rui.

The news of Princess Rui's affair with the guard naturally did not spread, but Prince Rui could not swallow this humiliation. His own woman was slept with by a guard. Even though it was not Princess Rui's will, she was still cuckolded. The news was reported back to Duke Chen's Mansion early the next morning.

At the Marquis Anyuan's Mansion, Mu Xiyu's face was swollen after being beaten by Mu Xiyue, so she went to Liu Meir's courtyard crying to complain.

Seeing her daughter's swollen cheeks, Liu Mei'er felt both distressed and angry. "Didn't I tell you not to mess with her? Did you ignore my words? Even your father's secret guards couldn't defeat that evil star. You're asking for trouble."

Mu Xiyu sobbed softly. She now regretted that she shouldn't have been so quick to argue, but now she failed to bully others and ended up being bullied, which made her very unwilling to accept it.

Liu Mei'er knew her daughter too well. She warned her, "Stop thinking about revenge. Just pretend she doesn't exist. Your father will find a way to deal with her. If you provoke her again, you might be punished by your father."

Mu Xiyu nodded with tears in her eyes. She was really unwilling, but she couldn't beat Mu Xiyue. You can imagine how frustrated she felt.

Another day passed. Mu Fengnian did not cause any trouble to Mu Xiyue, and the old lady did not come to ask her to wake up early in the morning and evening, mainly because she did not dare to. Mu Xiyue was happy to be free.

In the evening, Liu Mei'er came over with two maids. "Yue'er, you're back now for tomorrow's Spring Banquet. As the eldest daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, you have to attend the banquet. I brought you a dress for tomorrow's party. Take a look and see if you like it."

Mu Xiyue winked at Chun Ya, and Chun Ya stepped forward to take the clothes from the nanny's hand. The purple double-breasted waist-length skirt was embroidered with silver thread patterns, which looked very gorgeous.

As long as Liu Mei'er didn't provoke her, Mu Xiyue wouldn't embarrass Liu Mei'er. She smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Second Madam. The skirt is indeed beautiful, but I won't go to the banquet tomorrow. I'm from the countryside and I'm not used to such high-end banquets."

Liu Mei'er explained, "Yue'er, everyone outside knows that you're back home. The Spring Banquet is a must-attend for all legitimate daughters of every family. Tomorrow, you just need to follow us and don't wander around. The palace is different from the mansion, so you must be careful with your words and actions."

Mu Xiyue thought that since she had never been to the palace before, it would be okay to go and see it for herself, so she nodded and agreed, "Okay, let's go together tomorrow."

Before Liu Mei'er left, she said, "Yue'er, I've already scolded Yu'er for bumping into you yesterday. She won't dare to do it again. I hope you won't bother with her for the sake of her being your sister."

Liu Mei'er had witnessed Mu Xiyue's power with her own eyes, and she was really afraid.

Mu Xiyue waved her hand indifferently. "As long as she doesn't provoke me, I won't cause her any trouble. But if she provokes me again and again, next time it won't just be a matter of two slaps."

Liu Mei'er also hated Mu Xiyue. How could she be willing to be overshadowed by a country bumpkin? But she was a patient person and could bend and stretch. It would be best if Mu Xiyue went back to the countryside. As long as she was still in the mansion, there would always be a chance to plot against her. She could take her time.

After Liu Mei'er left, Xiaotao and Chunya praised the clothes highly and asked Mu Xiyue to try them on first.

Mu Xiyue refused and asked Chun Ya to go into the room with a smile.

Xiao Tao was puzzled. "Miss, why don't you try it on? I think this skirt looks great. If there's anything that doesn't fit, there's still time to alter it."

"No, the skirt is nice, but it doesn't suit me, and it's definitely not suitable for tomorrow."

Mu Xiyue has dark skin, and this purple is too bright, which only makes her look darker. She has no idea what tomorrow's Spring Banquet will be like, and this dress is too flashy and too ostentatious.

At noon on the second day, a maid came to ask Mu Xiyue, "Miss, Madam wants you to go to the front yard. She said she will leave for the palace soon."

Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao had just finished exercising and were sweating all over. They hadn't even had breakfast yet. She waved her hand and said, "I'll be there in a quarter of an hour."

I thought the Spring Banquet would not enter the palace until at least around noon, but I didn't expect it to set off so early.

The two of them quickly washed up. Mu Xiyue wore a frosty-colored, chest-length skirt. Although it didn't look gorgeous, it was elegant, graceful, and graceful. Breakfast wasn't a good option. Mu Xiyue ate very little, so she asked Xiaotao to bring some pastries for the journey.

When the two arrived at the front yard, Liu Mei'er, Mu Xiyu and Mu Wei'an were already waiting there. Mu Xiyu was wearing a purple pleated skirt without any extra decorations. Her headdress was simply a hairpin. It was not as gorgeous as the dress Liu Mei'er gave to Mu Xiyue yesterday. At first glance, she looked like a weak and gentle beauty.

Mu Xiyue raised her eyebrows. Fortunately, she was more careful. It turned out that it was not appropriate to dress too ostentatiously in such occasions.

Seeing that Mu Xiyue didn't wear the clothes she prepared, Liu Mei'er asked with a smile, "Yue'er, why didn't you wear the set I gave you yesterday? Don't you like it?"

Mu Xiyue simply curled the corners of her lips and said, "I'm not afraid that I'll look too good and outshine my second sister."

Mu Xiyu was repeatedly warned by Liu Mei'er, so she had to suppress her temper and did not speak.

Mu Fengnian was still in the palace for the morning court session. Mu Weian took a carriage with his servant, Mu Xiyue and Liu Meir, mother and daughter, rode in another carriage, and Xiaotao and Liu Meir and Mu Xiyu's maid sat together in the carriage at the back.

Children born out of wedlock are not eligible to attend palace banquets, but I don’t know why only one of Liu Meir’s two sons went.

The Marquis' Mansion is some distance away from the Imperial Palace, and a normal carriage would take two quarters of an hour to get there. Today, all the officials and their wives above the fourth rank were to attend a banquet in the palace, and traffic jams had already started before the carriages even reached the palace gate.

After spending half an hour, the carriage finally arrived near the palace.

The coachman asked the three people to get off the carriage. There was a large open space at the palace gate, so the coachman drove the carriage to a designated parking space. The officials and their families who were attending the palace banquet had to line up for inspection before entering the palace.

This was the first time Mu Xiyue saw an ancient imperial palace. In her previous life, she had just graduated from high school when the zombie outbreak began and the world began to end. She had never traveled far away and had only seen the Forbidden City on TV. Now, seeing that the entrance of this palace was so magnificent, the interior of the palace would probably not be worse than the Forbidden City in her previous life.
