After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor

Donggong and Yuan Wanru thought differently. She thought that the inside should be majestic, simple, elegant and exquisite.

Unexpectedly, the interior is magnificent and exquisite, with white marble floors, golden nanmu beams, carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions, waterside pavilions, rockery and flowers, all showing luxury and preciousness.

The prince really didn't hide anything and wasn't afraid of the emperor being displeased.

Many palace maids were outside welcoming guests, among whom was a calm and kind middle-aged woman who was particularly different.

Lu Jiangnian pointed at Yuan Wanru and said to the middle-aged woman, "Aunt Sun, this is my wife Yuan. She rarely goes out, so please take good care of her for a while."

Aunt Sun immediately replied with a smile: "Your Highness is just too concerned. Guests are welcome. How can we in the East Palace not be attentive and considerate? Just rest assured, Your Highness."

She glanced at Yuan Wanru, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

I heard that the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's son lost her parents early and she rarely socialized. The Crown Princess thought she was a cautious person, so she had already told her to be more careful today.

Unexpectedly, the person in front of me was so pretty and charming, with a lively look and a lively spirit, which made people deeply impressed at first sight.

"The Crown Prince's wife is extremely talented. No wonder the Crown Prince loves her so much."

Aunt Sun is an old lady who serves the prince. She is familiar with Lu Jiangnian and treats him like a junior, and can even joke with him a bit.

Lu Jiangnian just bowed and said, "Thank you, Aunt Sun."

Then he lowered his head and said to Yuan Wanru, "Aunt Sun is a kind person. If you have any problems, just ask her for help, or you can ask her to pass the message to me."

In front of outsiders, they always acted like a married couple. Yuan Wanru smiled sweetly, "I understand, my husband, don't worry."

Aunt Sun saw this and thought to herself, everyone said that Master Lu married because of his father's order, but after seeing him today, the rumors are indeed not credible.

If he was not willing to do this, why would he give such detailed instructions? She felt that the prince wanted to hold Yuanshi in his arms to feel at ease.

Aunt Sun didn’t know that because Murong Ling also came today, Lu Jiangnian was really worried.

But this is the East Palace. No matter how presumptuous Murong Ling is, she cannot take action here.

In the end, he couldn't help but say a few more words. He leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Murong Ling is here too, be smart."

Yuan Wanru nodded to indicate that she understood.

Liang Yusong watched from the side, his eyes heavy and dark.

Yuanshi has good tricks, but in just one month, Lu Jiangnian is already so reluctant to leave. It seems that she needs to speed up.

The banquet was held in Liuyun Pavilion of the East Palace.

When Yuan Wanru arrived, many people were already at the table.

The Crown Princess was only in her early twenties, with pretty features, dressed in a noble and elegant manner, and had a gentle and calm temperament. At first sight, Yuan Wanru felt that this woman was worthy of shouldering the heavy responsibility of being the "Mother of the Country".

Thinking of the scene in the book where she questioned the prince heart-wrenchingly after his temperament changed drastically, she felt a little heavy in her heart.

When she first met the prince that day, Yuan Wanru couldn't understand why the prince did so many ridiculous things just because he liked Liang Yusong.

Aunt Sun jokingly told the Crown Princess what Lu Jiangnian had specifically instructed her to do just now. For a moment, many people's eyes fell on Yuan Wanru. Yuan Wanru smiled and let them look at her.

The Crown Princess raised her hand to signal her to take a few steps forward. Yuan Wanru walked over step by step. The Crown Princess spoke gently, like a spring breeze.

"The Crown Prince and Your Highness have known each other since childhood and are as close as brothers. Don't be shy when you come to the Eastern Palace. Just treat me as your sister-in-law."

"I haven't seen you before, and I didn't dare to post to you rashly. Now that I've met you today, I hope we can get to know each other more often in the future."

The Crown Princess' maiden name was Tang Yuan. She was well-known for her virtue even when she was still in the boudoir, and many suitors came to her door.

The emperor specially issued an edict to grant the marriage and asked her to be the prince's principal wife. After living in the Eastern Palace for several years, she gave birth to a son and a daughter, and her position was consolidated.

Yuan Wanru had a good impression of her, but she didn't like coming to the East Palace. The class distinctions in such places were too obvious, and she always felt uncomfortable there. Before she could answer, Murong Ling interrupted her in a sarcastic tone.

"Sister-in-law, you should see her less often. She's always making up stories and confusing right and wrong. Don't pollute your ears."

Murong Ling, as always, dressed arrogantly. Thinking of the humiliation she suffered on the Qixi Festival, she wished she could skin Yuan Wanru alive.

Unfortunately, she told the truth, but her father and mother didn't believe her. They thought she was threatening her subordinates to give false testimony for her, so they locked her up for another half a month.

If it had not been the Crown Princess' birthday, she would not have been able to leave today if she had not begged hard and swore not to cause trouble.

The Crown Princess glanced at her calmly and said, "I see, Le An is hungry. You should have some snacks so that you don't get too hungry and speak without thinking."

What Princess Le'an did was no secret, who didn't know about it?

The scene was a little awkward for a while.

Murong Ling was not convinced, but when she met the Crown Princess's intimidating gaze, she had no choice but to shut up.

She had finally managed to get out, and she didn't want to be grounded again.

Liang Yusong sat next to the Second Prince's wife. She seemed to touch the back of her hand accidentally. The Second Prince's wife glanced at her sideways and stood up.

"Le'an, eat quickly. This snack was made by the chef that His Royal Highness hired from the south at a high price. You can't get it anywhere else. The Emperor's sister-in-law has always been very caring towards her brothers and sisters, and she always pays attention to them. I can never compare to her."

The Crown Princess curled her lips and said, "You are more careful than me. This banquet is also thanks to your help."

"The Second Prince's wife is right. This kind of snack is rare in the capital. Everyone should try it more often."

The atmosphere became relaxed again.

Yuan Wanru picked up some snacks and took a bite, but her eyes followed the Second Prince's wife.

The Second Prince's wife, Lu, was from the Lu family and was actually Zhou Fang's cousin.

The marriages between officials in the capital were so complicated that Yuan Wanru almost couldn't figure it out.

The second prince is the biological son of Concubine Liang and the cousin of Liang Yusong. He follows the orders of the crown prince and has always been a staunch member of the crown prince's party.

A wife follows her husband's lead, so the Second Prince's wife naturally follows the Second Prince's footsteps. She is respectful, attentive and considerate to the Crown Princess, and the Crown Princess has a very close relationship with her.

Even though Mrs. Lu is gentle and considerate in front of the Crown Princess now, who could have imagined that after the Second Prince gained power in the future, she would take advantage of Tang Yuan's misfortune and turn against her so ruthlessly?

The Lu family is not a simple person.

-

It was past noon, and the sound of stringed instruments could be heard in Liuyun Pavilion. Dancers in long gowns with flowing sleeves began to dance gracefully.

Diagonally opposite Yuan Wanru, Murong Ling stared at her intently, but she didn't care and ate the pastries praised by the Crown Princess one bite after another.

This pastry was very similar to the water chestnut cake she had eaten in modern times. It was fragrant, soft, glutinous, sweet and delicious. She could taste the strong flavor of water chestnut in it.

There was a fruit plate and snacks on the banquet table, as well as a pot of peach blossom wine.

In order to help everyone sober up, the Crown Princess gave everyone a sachet. Seeing that everyone wore it around their waist, Yuan Wanru naturally followed suit and wore one too.

She had just smelled it and found nothing wrong with it. It contained Chinese herbal medicine that could invigorate the mind and refresh the spirit.

After drinking a lot of tea, personal problems arose.

Yuan Wanru needed to go to the toilet, so she casually called a little palace maid to lead the way.

Liang Yusong seemed to be chatting with the Cao sisters, but he was secretly paying attention to Yuan Wanru.

Seeing her stand up, Liang Yusong looked towards the Second Prince's wife not far away, and it happened that the Second Prince's wife was also looking at him.

The Second Prince's wife nodded imperceptibly. Liang Yusong raised the corners of her lips and lowered her eyes.

This time, let’s see how Yuan Wanru escapes.

However, Liang Yusong did not notice that Princess Le'an also left the table after Yuan Wanru stood up.

Aunt Sun saw all this, frowned, called two people, and followed Princess Le'an.
