Chapter 40: Being arrogant due to favor (additional update)

Chang Liangdi raised her eyes and glanced at Xu Liangyuan. Her posture was even more arrogant than Liangdi's. She glanced at Shen Fengyi again and saw that she was eating grapes, one grape at a time...

Chang Liangdi didn't know if His Highness would stay with her tonight to avoid being embarrassed, so she planned to answer the words to leave a way out for herself. However, before she could open her mouth, the quick-tongued Li Liangyuan answered her.

"Does this need to be said? Today is Sister Chang's birthday, His Highness will definitely accompany Sister Chang. As for Sister Shen," Li Liangyuan looked at Shen Fengyi with a smile: "Sister Shen will not compete with Sister Chang for Your Highness, right?"

Li Liangyuan reminded Shen Fengyi in and out of her words that even if His Highness dotes on her, she should not compete with Chang Liangdi for favor at this time.

Everyone looked at Shen Fengyi, looking forward to how she would answer?

Shen Chuwei was focused on eating and didn't care about what they were talking about. Naturally, she didn't hear Li Liangyuan draw the heat on her.

After eating the grapes and cherries, she couldn't help but praise in her heart that Chang Liangdi was indeed Xiao Jinyan's favorite, and the fruits in the palace were fresh.

Thinking about her Xiyun Pavilion, she has been here for half a year, not to mention the fruit skin, not even the shadow of the fruit.

Chunxi heard the meaning of Li Liangyuan's words and lowered her eyes to see that her master was focused on eating, so he pretended to be deaf and mute and did not remind him, so as not to put his master in a dilemma.

Tao Chenghui glanced at Shen Fengyi, smiled and drank tea without reminding him.

Li Liangyuan waited for Shen Fengyi to answer, but saw her lowering her head to eat and ignoring her, and the smile on her face froze.

She was a little unhappy: "Shen Fengyi?"

Shen Chuwei raised his head and looked at Li Liangyuan with some expectation, "Is the banquet going to start?"

"..." Li Liangyuan: "How can we start the banquet before His Highness comes?"

"Oh, just wait." Shen Chuwei was not in a hurry and continued to eat the cherries.

Li Liangyuan's face looked a little ugly. Wasn't it just relying on His Highness's favor? She didn't take anyone seriously.

Not only Li Liangyuan thought so, but most of the people present also thought so. Even the little palace maid standing guard felt that Shen Fengyi was arrogant because of his love, and even Chang Liangdi didn't take it seriously.

Xu Liangyuan had already guessed that Shen Fengyi was pretending to be stupid by eating, but she was also curious whether His Highness would stay at Xinlan Palace tonight or go to Xiyun Pavilion?

Another half hour has passed, and His Highness has not been seen yet.

Shen Chuwei had almost finished eating the tea fruit in front of her, and then she realized that His Highness hadn't come yet.

Tao Chenghui saw that the fruit plate in front of Shen Fengyi was empty, so he brought the fruit plate in front of her to her, "Sister Shen, I have some more here, you eat first."

Tao Chenghui came to Xiyun Pavilion the most. Shen Chuwei got to know her quite well. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Thank you, Sister Tao."

Tao Chenghui smiled: "My sisters, you're welcome."

Shen Chuwei was not polite and took the fruit plate and continued eating.

After waiting for so long, everyone began to wonder if His Highness would come?

"Why hasn't His Highness come yet? Could it be that he forgot?"

"Today is Chang Liangdi's birthday, and His Highness will not forget it."

"It's past dinner time, will His Highness not come?"

Chang Liangdi looked around but didn't see His Highness coming down. Listening to the discussion below, she grabbed the handkerchief with her small hands and whispered to Dongmei: "Go and ask."

"Here." Dongmei exited Xinlan Palace and ran to His Highness's bedroom.

Seeing Eunuch Liu outside the study, she asked urgently: "Eunuch Liu, today is Chang Liangdi's birthday, and I am waiting for His Highness to start the banquet."

"Miss Dongmei, Your Highness is busy with business and won't be able to go for a while."

Dongmei was so anxious that she said, "But Chang Liangdi and the other little masters are waiting, please go and inform Eunuch Liu."

"Then let's go in and ask." Eunuch Liu opened the study door and went in.

Wen Chengjun and Yang Qing stopped talking when they saw Eunuch Liu come in.

"Your Highness, Xinlan Palace is here to ask you when you will come over." Eunuch Liu asked.

Xiao Jinyan picked up the tea cup and took a few sips before replying calmly: "Tell her that I will be arriving later and let them have their meal first."

"Here." After Eunuch Liu came out, he conveyed His Highness's words to Dongmei, but he was very tactful.

"Your Highness is done with his work and will go over to celebrate Chang Liangdi's birthday."

Eunuch Liu said this, but Dongmei was too embarrassed to urge her, so she had to go back to Xinlan Palace and relay His Highness's words to Chang Liangdi.

"Don't worry, little master, His Highness will come later."

Chang Liangdi felt relieved when she learned that His Highness would be coming. She looked at everyone with a smile on her lips, "His Highness is busy with official duties and will have to come later. Sisters will eat first."

Chang Liangdi spoke, and the maids began to prepare the dishes, put them into the running water, and spread the dishes through the water.

"Let me tell you, how could His Highness forget Chang Liangdi's birthday?"

"His Royal Highness is so busy that he still takes time out to celebrate Chang Liangdi's birthday. The sisters will not envy him."

It was Shen Chuwei's first time to eat a flowing banquet. When the meal started, she couldn't wait to hold her chopsticks. She kept staring at the delicacies floating towards her. Everyone was busy fawning over Chang Liangdi. The delicacies were almost untouched. She held them

Then he put it into his own bowl and ate it slowly.

When it was almost over, Eunuch Liu's high-pitched voice came: "His Royal Highness has arrived."

As soon as the women heard that the prince was coming, they looked in the mirror, touched up their makeup, and straightened their clothes, just to let his highness see their most beautiful side.

During the midterm, except for Shen Chuwei, she couldn't bear to put down the chopsticks in her hands and kept picking up vegetables and putting them into her bowl.

"Your Highness, may you be blessed and safe."

When everyone paid their respects to Xiao Jinyan, Shen Chuwei squatted silently at the end, chewing Sixi meatballs in his mouth.

Xiao Jinyan appeared in Xinlan Hall wearing a black satin robe. He glanced down at everyone and his eyes fell on a pink figure. Even with his head lowered, he found that her cheeks were bulging as she was eating something secretly.

"Get up." Xiao Jinyan looked away and came to the front seat to sit down.

The young masters took their seats one by one.

Chang Liangdi sat on the right side of Xiao Jinyan.

Shen Chuwei sat back down in her seat. Her position was a little far away from Xiao Jinyan, so she was eating without fear of being discovered.

Xiao Jinyan said calmly: "Today is Chang Liangdi's birthday. I was busy with official duties and came a little late."

Chang Liangdi smiled gently: "I am overjoyed that Your Highness can come to celebrate my birthday."

"This is the birthday gift I have prepared for you."

As soon as Xiao Jinyan finished speaking, Eunuch Liu presented him with an exquisite brocade box.

"Sister Chang, please open it quickly and let the sisters open their eyes."

"I'm curious as to what gifts His Highness has prepared for Sister Chang. Sister Chang also wants to let the younger sisters have a look."

"The gift prepared by His Highness must be unique."

Xu Liangyuan stared at the brocade box curiously for a few times. She always felt that the brocade box looked familiar.
