Chapter 3 Flower Appreciation Banquet

Not long after, Jiang Xiyuan's figure appeared around the corner. She was so beautiful and radiant. She was dressed in an orange and yellow floral-patterned floor-length open-front dress, with gold hairpins and jingling pearls and jade, which made people unable to take their eyes away.

"Sister is so beautiful today." Jiang Wenyue said.

Jiang Xiyuan glanced at Jiang Wenyue's bland attire and felt disgusted in her heart. She was too lazy to work with her on the surface. She ignored her and was helped into the sedan by the maid Xiangdan beside her.

Jiang Wenyue didn't care, after all, she was just complimenting her casually.

She also knew Jiang Xiyuan. She was very arrogant because she was the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Palace. Except for banquets at the eldest princess's palace, she never bothered to go to banquets held by other noble families.

She was not targeting herself, she simply looked down upon her as a concubine. In her eyes, she was probably no different from the slaves in the mansion.

Ranxiang wanted to comfort Jiang Wenyue and whispered: "Miss..."

Jiang Wenyue interrupted: "It's okay, let's go."

The eldest princess loves flowers. The Holy Emperor and the eldest princess are siblings with high status. Over the years, they have collected many rare and rare flowers in the mansion. It is spring, and as soon as you enter the mansion, you can see the flowers, including osmanthus, fragrant orchids, and even flowers.

All the daughters of high-ranking officials and nobles in this courtyard were compared to each other. It is no wonder that the eldest princess loves to play with these flowers and plants.

"But the daughter of Prime Minister Jiang's family?"

As soon as I got off the sedan, a woman came to the door. Although she looked ordinary, she was dressed in gold and silver, and her rings jingled all the way.

Jiang Wenyue knew that this person was Zhang, the aunt of the third prince Yunmu. She was afraid that she was not eye-catching enough, so she always dressed in jewels and had nothing to do but ruin her family.

But she knew how to follow the trend and adapt to the situation. In her previous life, she tried her best to fawn over Jiang Xiyuan, and naturally pretended that Jiang Wenyue, a concubine, did not exist. Later, after Jiang Wenyue married the prince, she fawned over Jiang Wenyue indiscriminately.

All in all, this person is not worth dealing with, he is just a boring person.

Sure enough, Mrs. Zhang came directly to the gorgeously dressed Jiang Xiyuan without even looking at Jiang Wenyue. Jiang Xiyuan looked cold to everyone, but she smiled brightly at this useless Mrs. Zhang.

Jiang Wenyue secretly wondered. In the last life, she didn't pay much attention to Jiang Xiyuan and was only thinking about that person. Now that she has noticed, it seems that this matter is not simple.

"This is Prime Minister Jiang's daughter, she is so well-born!"

"Mrs. Ruan is so complimentary." Jiang Xiyuan actually recognized Mrs. Zhang.

"You can't even speak of it as a compliment. I think Miss Jiang is more beautiful than any other. No one among the rich officials present today can compare with you."

After hearing this, Jiang Wenyue couldn't help but curse, Zhang must be stupid. Even though her words flattered Jiang Xiyuan, she offended too many people, and might even harm Jiang Xiyuan.

The status of being able to come to the eldest princess's residence for a banquet is extraordinary. If you offend any powerful and stingy family, I'm afraid the entire Prime Minister's residence will be affected.

Jiang Xiyuan was a proud and arrogant person, so she took it for granted and had no reaction after hearing this.

Jiang Wenyue didn't want to be implicated, so she stepped forward and said, "Mrs. Ruan is joking, my sister is naturally very beautiful, but the other ladies are also pink and apricot, each with their own merits, so how can we compare them? Thank you very much, Mrs. Ruan, for the compliment."

"

Mrs. Zhang finally came to her senses at this time, but she was taught a lesson by a little yellow-haired girl. She felt that she couldn't save her face no matter what, and her face turned red and white.

"You are also the daughter of Prime Minister Jiang? But how come I heard that Prime Minister Jiang's family only has one legitimate daughter?" Mrs. Zhang looked at Jiang Wenyue and said, she meant that concubines with low status were not qualified to attend the banquet at the eldest princess's mansion.

.

These words were truly rude. Jiang Wenyue was interrupted by a clear voice just as he was about to speak.

"This madam is so strange. If only a legitimate daughter is considered a daughter, then wouldn't a concubine be considered a daughter?"

The person who came was dressed in red, with heroic eyebrows and a dashing figure. His long hair was tied up high and only held in place by a silver hairpin.

As soon as Mrs. Zhang heard this, she wanted to dismiss it, but when she saw the person coming, she immediately bowed with a shy face and said, "See Princess Qian'an."

When the others heard this, they also stood up and saluted: "See Princess Qian'an."

Princess Qian'an? Yunqing?

"I just heard Miss Jiang calling you Mrs. Ruan. Could it be that she is the wife of Ruan Pu, the third brother's uncle? That's really strange. Third brother has known etiquette since he was a child. He is not only courteous to others, but also advances and retreats in a measured manner. Why?

..."There is such a relative who does not know the importance of it.

Yun Qing did not say the next words, but everyone present understood what she meant.

Just now, Mrs. Zhang offended several ladies and ladies for praising Jiang Xiyuan. Now that Princess Qian'an has made a move, these nobles began to mock Ms. Zhang without any concealment.

Zhang felt that her face was shameless, but she did not dare to offend Princess Qian'an, so she could only accept it forcefully.

Yun Qing looked at Jiang Xiyuan and Jiang Wenyue on the side again, looked them over, and mumbled in a low voice: "Legends are not as good as concubines."

What Zhang just said was clearly looking down on concubines. Although it was directed at Jiang Wenyue alone, she forgot that except for Yun Chi, who was born by the empress, all the other princes and princesses in the palace were considered concubines. Yun Qing was not born by the empress of the middle palace. By chance,

Hearing this, he felt offended and would inevitably take action on Zhang, which also did not give Jiang Xiyuan a good look.

Although the voice was small and the words were short, both Jiang Xiyuan and Jiang Wenyue heard it.

Jiang Xiyuan secretly fiddled with the handkerchief in her hand. She had never been insulted like this since she was a child. Yun Qing was not born into a noble family, and her biological mother was just a little noble person. She was not a princess!

Suddenly, a man's voice broke the silence.

"What's going on? Why are you standing here and not going in?"

"Second brother." Yun Qing ran to the second prince Yun Mu and saw other people, "Eldest brother, third brother, you are all here."

"Are you being naughty again?" The second prince Yun Mu scratched Yun Qing's nose. It was obvious that the two of them had a very close relationship.

"Oh, how can I..."

Jiang Wenyue stood next to Jiang Xiyuan and could clearly feel her body stiffening for a moment after Yun Mu appeared, and she seemed to be nervous.

Nervous? Jiang Wenyue raised her head and glanced at Yun Mu, who was chatting and laughing with Yun Qing. Could it be...

When Jiang Wenyue raised her head, Yun Chi, who had remained silent on the other side, kept staring at the girl in front of him.

She was in her youth, the warm sun cast a soft light on her body, and the light blue dress gave her a hint of depth that did not belong to her age. He looked at her face, and the voices of everyone around her were

Disappeared, something came to his mind again after eighteen years and two lives.

When she accidentally looked at him, she felt as if she had been in a dream these past few days. When she woke up from the dream, she was still his princess, and he was still the prince of Zhou who looked at her coldly every day.
