To marry a blue-robed scholar;

To live in a sunny little courtyard;

If she could also open a...

Chapter 218: A Mess

Chapter 218 A Mess

Xu Ke was shocked and frowned unconsciously.

Then he stretched out again and turned around...

It was indeed Princess Yu'an, who had just got off her luxurious carriage.

She was wearing a red velvet cloak, a ruby ​​headdress, and with her chin slightly raised, she was as beautiful as the sun.

But there was a half-smile on her face.

Before I got close, I could smell her strong fragrance.

"Your Highness!" Xu Ke saluted solemnly, with a bit of coldness and distance in his tone.

Her carriage had been waiting nearby for a long time, and finally he showed up. Princess Yu'an looked at the man in front of her, but she didn't know what to say or do when she saw him...

She is upset now...

"Princess, please go first!" Xu Ke's movements were extremely standard.

Today he was wearing a light blue silk robe and a jade belt around his waist. His eyes were as white as lacquer and his lips were moist pink, making him look like a handsome young man from a wealthy family.

He was so handsome. Princess Yu'an was very anxious. She just looked at him silently without moving.

Xu Ke was extremely nervous: What was she going to do in front of so many people?

At this moment, Li Chang came out after receiving the news and said with a smile: "Sister Yu'an is here? Please come in!"

He was so distant to her in front of others... Princess Yu'an was furious, but she couldn't vent it on Xu Ke, so she turned to Li Chang and said, "What? Was Fourteenth Brother sold to Prince Qi's Mansion? He's also responsible for welcoming guests?!" Her words and expression were very harsh.

Li Chang has been having good things happen to him recently, and he is no longer someone she can bully whenever she wants. Hearing this, he sneered, "The King of Qi is my brother, can't I entertain the guests on his behalf?

It's a good intention, and you don't appreciate it, but who are you showing this face to? ! A female guest, not to mention the side door..." He glanced at Xu Ke and continued, "I thought you only wanted to see Brother Qi, so I let you in, is that wrong?"

Xu Ke is a relative of the princess, so Li Chang was embarrassed to bring him along...

You are acting like a slut and stopping the handsome young man from leaving, staring at him. I don't know what your purpose is!

I can't walk when I see a good-looking man. Don't have a thief face!

Didn’t you see Xu Ke, whose face was red with embarrassment?

(I don’t know how he figured it out…)

"How dare you! You think you are so great?!" Princess Yu'an was so angry that her face turned red.

Xu Ke was extremely scared. He could do whatever he wanted in private... but not here!

Everyone inside and outside the door is watching.

He said in a gentle voice, "There are many guests at the door. Princess, would you please go in and talk?"

Li Chang turned to Xu Ke and said, "Xu Ke, go in quickly! Haha, your brother-in-law is waiting for you! And your uncle-in-law is here too! Go and talk to them quickly!" Then, he glanced at Princess Yu'an with contempt.

Xu Ke nodded slightly at Princess Yu'an and made a gesture of invitation.

Li Chang was anxious, so he pulled him in, "Hurry up, it's up to her whether she wants to come in or not!"

Princess Yu'an was left alone. Although she was very angry, she still had some concerns.

"Yu'an, what are you doing?" The carriage stopped behind him and a smiling voice came.

The prince has arrived.

"Brother Prince, you are here!" Princess Yu'an had a way out.

"Yes. I have to come to support my seventh brother's family dinner." The prince was helped out of the car. He was graceful and calm, with excellent manners!

His face had the same gentle smile as always, "But, I'm afraid I don't have time to eat. Your sister-in-law..." He looked back.

The Crown Princess lifted the carriage curtain and asked, "Sister, will you follow me through the side door?"

"I'll go out the front door!" Princess Yu'an raised her chin.

"Let's go..." The Crown Princess smiled, lowered the curtain and gave the order, and the carriage moved forward.

Li Jing came out and said, "Prince." He bowed.

When the prince comes, he has to receive him.

"Seventh brother! It's so lively! I'll just take a look around. I have other things to do, so I'm afraid I won't have time to eat. Let's make a deal. You'll go to my place tomorrow!"

"All is up to the prince." Li Jing said casually.

The group walked in and everyone inside stood up to greet them.

The prince waved his hand casually, "Today is my seventh brother's family dinner, and those who came are all relatives and friends, so please don't be polite. Here, I wish you all a happy new year, happiness and good fortune!"

Everyone was saying New Year greetings, it was a mess.

The prince laughed out loud.

On weekdays, he either wore the crown and robes of a prince or wore clothes that appeared more serious.

Today is the New Year, and he is wearing a dark purple wide-sleeved robe embroidered with cloud patterns, which is rare. With his handsome face, bright eyes, and elegant demeanor, he overwhelms both the slightly dull Li Jing and Princess Yu'an, who is dressed in bright red.

Princess Yu'an saw two good-looking men with smiling faces beside Xu Ke. They looked a bit like that bitch Mo Yi... Could they be her brothers?

Seeing how close they were to Xu Ke, Princess Yu'an felt malicious and her eyes were like knives...

This look made Xu Ke sweat on his back...

The yard at the back also became lively. When Concubine Feng saw Mo Wen accompanying Madam Xu in, she subconsciously dodged.

Mo Yi received the news and came out with his men.

Mrs. Liang also came to the back. Mo Yuan saw her at a glance and pounced on her like a butterfly.

"Happy New Year, Madam! I haven't had a chance to congratulate you on your big happy event yet!"

Madam Liang looked at Mo Yuan's sincere smile, and then looked at her dress... she had changed a lot since the first time she saw her!

"Miss Mo, you have changed a lot. Not only are you getting prettier, but you also have the temperament of a lady from a noble family!"

"Really?!" Mo Yuan smiled, but accepted it calmly.

Mrs. Liang shook her head and smiled.

"Madam... Mo Yuan has something important to tell you."

"Oh, is it something important?!" Mrs. Liang wanted to tease him, "Then let's talk about it on the side so that no one else can hear us."

The two people really went to one side.

"Madam, let me tell you, your future daughter-in-law, Princess Wenfang, is really not that good!"

This was beyond Mrs. Liang's expectations. "Do you recognize her?"

"Of course! Not only is she not good-looking, but she is also petty and looks down on others..." She talked for a long time about the conflict between her and County Lady Wenfang, exaggerating the details.

"You almost pushed me over... Don't you think this method is too cheap? I can't even use this trick! We have never met before... Where did the hatred come from?

It is true that the Mo family is not of high rank, and others may look down on them. But they are respectable and do not show it, so as not to offend others.

My fifth sister is not ordinary. Who would cause trouble for their own family just because they have nothing to do? It can be seen that this county lady is a nobody! I am so angry! She is really unworthy of Lord Liang! You are the mother-in-law, you have to pay attention to her, and be good..." Mo Yuan's eyebrows and eyes shook, with a meaningful look, "... set some rules for her!"

In fact, Mrs. Liang would not listen to such gossip on weekdays.

But today, I felt it sounded very pleasant and I actually nodded slightly.

Mrs. Zhang over there has been staring at Mo Yuan and is getting jealous. What does this girl mean?

Why are you so close to Mrs. Liang?

You’ve taken a fancy to Marquis Liang...and you’re trying to please her?

No way? The emperor granted the marriage...
