Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me

(Princess's Mansion)

The flower-viewing banquet in the mansion is held every six months. The servants in the mansion have long been accustomed to it and are very adept at organizing it.

The current emperor has only this one sister. Although they are not biological siblings, she was once fostered by the empress dowager, so the emperor gave her the title of eldest princess, and she is still favored.

In addition, the eldest princess would go to the palace whenever she had nothing to do to cultivate her relationship with the Empress Dowager, so she had a great reputation in Beijing.

Of course, the one who could receive the invitation from her mansion had to be at least a third-rank official, and the General's Mansion was also a second-rank official, but the title was higher, otherwise Shi Pei would not dare to allow his son to fight with the children of the Mu family in private.

"Brother, how about I let Qilan follow you? I'm not too sure."

When Mu Qingli followed her mother and brother into the house, she did not forget to get close to her brother and whispered a reminder.

The eldest princess actually has some resentment towards her family. After all, the man she loved before was her father. If it weren't for the repeated invasions by neighboring small countries in those years to compete for territory and the emperor's need to rely on her father, her father might have been forced to marry the princess.

Fortunately, there was a snowstorm at the border one day, and Cheng's family was kind-hearted and went to help with disaster relief and rescue. That was how her parents met by chance, and they got to know each other and fell in love.

Her father was impatient and hurriedly got married at the border. He also sent a message to the emperor saying that he would invite him to the wedding when he returned to Beijing, which messed up the matter.

Mu Fushu knew what she was worried about, and smiled and shook his head to calm her down.

"Don't worry, it's okay. Even if Shuyan is not by my side, don't I still have Qingshu? I haven't practiced all these years of martial arts in vain. You should also be careful."

The eldest princess had a grudge against her mother, so even if she showed up, she would first target the female members of the family. Men and women sat at separate tables, and the one coming to her side must be the prince consort. He was more worried about them.

Mu Qingli lowered his eyes and smiled without saying a word. He watched his brother and the servants go to the men's seat before he narrowed his eyes and sighed silently.

The eldest princess was a person who would not easily accept defeat. When she got the news, she made a fuss in the capital and wanted to go to the border.

In the end, it was His Majesty who arranged a marriage for her to resolve the issue. Her mother was forced to bring her and her brother back to live because the emperor bestowed the title of General Guardian of the Nation on her a few years ago.

Every time she attends a banquet and meets the eldest princess, she will be in a difficult situation. Her mother is carefree and doesn't care about these things, but she has been remembering every detail since her previous life, and it's just right that she is here to settle the account today.

She quietly followed her mother as they walked slowly in the garden. The flower viewing banquet had not yet begun and many people in the garden were enjoying the flowers in the mansion.

Cheng Qin glanced around and couldn't help but mutter under his breath.

"She always appears at the very end. It's been a few years and the princess is still like this. It's really boring."

My mother actually doesn't like socializing. After all, she used to do it to make money for the family. Although she still does it for the family now, unfortunately she has to be very cautious every time, for fear of offending people or falling into other people's traps.

Mu Qingli raised his eyes to look at his mother, then turned his head to look around and accurately locked onto Fang Jiale and his group who were slowly approaching from a distance. His eyes immediately lit up and he pulled his mother over to say hello.

"Mother, Aunt Fang is here. Why don't you all just talk together? It'll make you feel more comfortable. Even if someone sees you, no one will gossip about you. And the Princess won't be here for a while anyway."

After all, she and Gu Luoheng had a childhood engagement, and most families in Jinghua knew about it.

Cheng Qin turned his head and quickly saw it, and immediately took her over according to his wishes.

They had a good relationship before they were engaged, and it became even better after the engagement. They could almost be said to be close friends who could talk about anything.

Mu Qingli followed her with a smile, glanced at Qiu Jin and Qilan beside him calmly, and gave them a look.

As soon as Qiu Jin noticed her gaze, she immediately pulled Qilan closer to the left and right, moving closer without making a sound to cover up her hand movements.

Mu Qingli quickly swallowed the pill in his mouth before going over to greet Fang Jiale.

"Aunt Fang, Mom was just talking about wanting to see you, and here you are! Is this what they call telepathy?"

Fang Jiale was immediately amused by her words. He touched her little face lovingly and smiled happily.

"Our Ahri is so thoughtful and good at talking! I was just thinking of talking to your mother, otherwise this party would be meaningless."

Cheng Qin also interrupted with a smile and asked Gu Luoheng a question.

"She's only got a sweet mouth, but she's nowhere near as capable as your Ah Heng. I just heard from my eldest son that his article was praised by the Master again. If I were to ask you, Ah Heng is the one who has the most of the old Master's character. Is Ah Heng here too?"

Fang Jiale smiled and nodded, then took her arm and spoke.

"Sister Qin, you're such a great compliment! I didn't know Ah Heng was so outstanding. He heard that Ah Li was coming too, so he naturally followed. He should have met Zi Tan by now."

As expected, when mothers meet, the topic is always on their children. You praise me, I praise you, and the main focus is mutual praise.

Mu Qingli smiled, calmly changed the subject, and pointed in a direction.

"Then Aunt Fang, you two can have a good chat. I won't bother you for now. I'll just walk around and look at the flowers. Mother, Qiu Jin and Qi Lan are with me, so don't worry."

She felt at ease knowing someone was accompanying Cheng Qin, but thinking that this was the eldest princess's residence, she couldn't help but give some instructions.

"There are a lot of people here today, so you must be careful and stay away from the water, especially stay away from it. Do you understand?"

Her daughter had just fallen into the water and her body might not have fully recovered yet. She was afraid that the child would be having fun and forget about it, so she put on a stern face and gave her some advice.

Mu Qingli always had a faint smile on his face, and he nodded repeatedly to coax her.

"Don't worry. I took a lot of bitter medicine last time I fell into the water. I will definitely walk around the water this time. Don't worry about me."

Soon she left with Qiu Jin and Qi Lan.

The three people seemed to be looking at the flowers, but in fact they were walking around and heading in the same direction. No one would notice them just by looking at them like this, not to mention that most of the officials' families in the garden were admiring the flowers and distracted their attention.

It was someone in the pavilion in the lotus pond not far away who saw them first.

"Princess, look over there~ It seems to be Miss Mu from the General Guardian's Mansion. Wasn't she said to be ill? How come she has time to attend your banquet?"

There were already five or six girls crowded in the huge pavilion. The oldest was Princess Hui'an from the eldest princess's family, who was thirteen years old.

Princess Hui'an narrowed her eyes as she looked over there, put down the teacup in her hand and raised her hand.

"She actually dared to come? Go and invite her over to this princess."
