The fifth prince was so annoyed that he had to get up and go to see.

The Fifth Prince's facial features are somewhat similar to those of the Crown Prince, but due to long-term medication and physical weakness, his facial features are softer and gentler, his eyebrows and eyes are delicate, and his lips are extremely light in color, giving him the appearance of being pure and unselfish.

He leaned slowly against the window, and just looking at his back, he was thinner than the others.

There was no special marking on the Meng Mansion's carriage. The reason why several people were able to recognize it was because Hefengxuan was booked today. Except for Meng Qingjiao, almost everyone else had arrived.

As expected, a delicate pink girl slowly came down from the carriage. The girl had a graceful figure and her clothes were shining brightly under the sunshine.

Meng Qingjiao moved lightly with her lotus steps, and her skirt rippled like layers of waves, instantly attracting the attention of several people above.

"What a delicate pink lotus." Qiao Yanfeng reluctantly withdrew his gaze and gently placed his hand on the Fifth Prince. "The Fifth Prince is so lucky."

The fifth prince and Rong Youyan also had a hint of joy and pride in their eyes.

"Hey, there's another person getting off the car." The voice of the prime minister's second son was heard, and several people immediately looked over.

Meng Tingyue got out of the car behind Meng Qingjiao. She looked up with a sense of awareness and her gaze met the three people who were watching the excitement through the window.

Seeing the Fifth Prince with a sickly face and a smile in his eyes, his expression immediately turned cold.

"Who is that girl?" The prime minister's second son was puzzled. "She's really pretty, but she looks a little cold. Why did she come with Miss Meng Er?"

The Fifth Prince had been to the Meng Mansion and met Meng Tingyue, so he naturally knew her. However, in his memory, Miss Meng looked weak and sick. He could see her every time he went to see Jiaojiao.

As if he had thought of something, the smile in the Fifth Prince's eyes faded and he turned around and sat on the chair.

"She's here too?" Qiao Tingfeng was surprised, as if he had thought of something bad, and immediately put away his nonchalant expression.

"Who is this man? How dare you, a devil, be afraid of him?" The prime minister's second son was surprised and couldn't help but take a few more glances at him, but the two men had already entered the house and were no longer in sight.

"Except for the Crown Prince, this is the first time I've seen you so scared of a girl. In the past, you always greeted girls by waving your fan."

The prime minister's second son sat back down beside Qiao Yanfeng, teasing but more curious.

Even if Princess Luojia came, Prince Qiao would not be so scared.

"Oh, you don't understand." Qiao Yanfeng rolled his eyes at him. "Sister, you'll just follow me and call for help later, okay?"

Qiao Tingfeng's sister nodded obediently, "I understand, brother."

Qiao Tingfeng thought for a moment, called the servant behind him, whispered a few words in the servant's ear, and the servant lowered his head and left.

Hefengxuan is the largest and most elegant place in the capital.

Here you can see the sound of flowing wine, poetry and songs.

After passing an elegant rockery garden, the two followed the attendants up to the second floor.

The piano sound that was originally faint in my ears gradually became clearer.

The first thing I saw when I entered the house was the singer playing the guzheng.

Turning his sight, he saw a dozen people, both men and women, sitting together, headed by the Fifth Prince.

After all, Meng Qingjiao and Meng Tingyue have not yet married into the royal family, so they still have to observe the proper etiquette.

Meng Tingyue knew most of the people in the room. Meng Qingjiao had been trying hard to squeeze into the upper circle, so naturally she knew them too.

Meng Tingyue recognized the person with the brightest smile in the crowd at a glance.

I was thinking about whether to bow and say hello.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she looked over, Qiao Tingfeng immediately stood up, smiling even more attentively, and called out in full force, "Future sister-in-law."

Although Qiao Tingfeng's sister didn't understand the situation, she obediently followed Qiao Yanfeng to call for help.

For a moment, Meng Tingyue and Meng Qingjiao were the center of everyone's attention.

A faint blush instantly appeared on Meng Qingjiao's face. She felt both proud and pleased in her heart. She lowered her eyes and glanced proudly at Meng Tingyue.

"Master Qiao, I haven't even married the Fifth Prince yet, how can you call me that? We've only just started..."

Others felt it was strange, but couldn't put their finger on it.

The fifth prince frowned slightly. Qiao Tingfeng was one year older than him, so there was no need for him to call him brother. Therefore, the 'future sister-in-law' he called was not Jiaojiao.

So he was calling Meng Tingyue?

He was just about to say a few words on behalf of Meng Qingjiao.

Qiao Tingfeng spoke before him.

Qiao Yanfeng looked at Meng Qingjiao with a strange expression, "My eldest brother is the crown prince, so I should call you the crown princess."

Qiao Tingfeng still gave the Fifth Prince some face and didn't say anything too harsh.

If it were someone else, his words would not be just fifteen words.

After explaining, he didn't take the matter to heart, but instead pointed enthusiastically to a place nearby.

"Sister-in-law, please sit here. My eldest brother will be here soon."

Meng Tingyue was still surprised by the prince's coming, but it was also the only good thing that happened today.

She is not thin-skinned and will do anything as long as it can make the prince notice her.

There were two chairs at the location Qiao Tingfeng pointed to, one was the prince's seat, and the other should be a newly added chair.

She walked towards the chair under everyone's gaze.

Not only was Meng Qingjiao's face red, but even her ears were red. She was so proud just now, but now she was so embarrassed that she wanted to turn around and run away.

It was obvious that today was the occasion for her and the Fifth Prince, so why was it Meng Tingyue who was the center of attention? What had Meng Tingyue done to deserve the attention of Master Qiao?

When Meng Qingjiao thought that all the attention belonged to her in her previous life, she felt even more uncomfortable.

The fifth prince saw her embarrassment and took the initiative to walk over, holding Meng Qingjiao's hand, leading her into the crowd and comforting her.

The others also tried to ease the atmosphere, and one of the noble ladies took the initiative to ask where Meng Qingjiao's clothes were ordered.

Having said this, Meng Qingjiao felt even more upset.

She pulled the corners of her lips and forced a smile, "I bought this at the embroidery shop."

The ladies all took note of the embroidery shop, and were talking about going there tomorrow to take a look and order a few clothes.

Meng Qingjiao looked at Meng Tingyue with a sad look.

Seeing that there was no noble lady around Meng Tingyue except Prince Qiao, he felt a little comforted.

Meng Tingyue didn't care what Meng Qingjiao was thinking. She only had one thing in mind.

"Master Qiao, you said the prince would also be here today."

Qiao Tingfeng hesitated, "I don't know. The prince seems to be busy suppressing bandits these past two days. I can't say for sure whether he will come today."

Then he approached Meng Tingyue mysteriously, lowering his voice and speaking rather proudly, "But I have just sent someone to tell the Crown Prince about your coming. If the Crown Prince knows about it, he will definitely come."

Hearing this, Meng Tingyue pursed her lips and smiled.

Does she really have the nerve to ask the prince to put down what he is doing and come here in person?

She really doesn't have that confidence.

"I didn't mean to offend you last time. I hope you will be magnanimous enough to forgive me. If you need any help in the future, please feel free to ask. I will do my best to help you."

"So, Miss Meng, when you see the prince later, can you please ask him for mercy on my behalf and shorten the one month to half a month?"

"What do you mean by one month?" Meng Tingyue was puzzled.

"Isn't this the same thing as last time when I failed to recognize Miss Meng as my future sister-in-law and was rude and offended, and the prince punished me by sweeping the capital for a month? Could Miss Meng please plead for me?"

As if afraid that she wouldn't believe him, Qiao Tingfeng added, "Miss Meng is the only girl I've met in the past two years who could make the prince look at her in a different light."
