Chapter 406 Birthday Banquet 1

This day was not only the Crown Prince's birthday banquet, but also Xie Ziyan and Xie Hongyou's first birthday celebration. The entire palace was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, filled with joy and celebration. The Imperial Garden was full of blooming flowers, presenting a thriving scene.

The banquet was hosted by the Crown Prince's Palace, and the Crown Princess oversaw all the arrangements, including the banquet drinks, the program list for the stage performances, songs and dances, and so on.

Officials of the third rank or above in the capital city were required to bring their families to participate.

Although she was busy, she had the help of palace staff and people from the Ministry of Rites, so Jiang Fenghua just did her job of checking things carefully.

Before the banquet even started early in the morning, Feng Jingyuan and Jiang Rumeng entered the palace, and Jiang Fenghua had them brought directly to the East Palace.

Jiang Fenghua inquired about Zhang Yumo's condition, and she still hadn't woken up. Jiang Jinyan was frantic with worry, and the child had been asked to be cared for by a wet nurse.

Jiang Fenghua thought that Jiang Jinyan could no longer stay at home. If the imperial physician said that Zhang Yumo needed to rest, then he should rest first. Even if he didn't wake up, it wouldn't mean there was no hope at all.

The group was also in a somber mood, but since today was a joyous occasion, the mother and her two daughters naturally couldn't show any unhappiness on their faces.

Jiang Rumeng held her two little nephews and was overjoyed. Seeing the children made everyone feel much more relaxed.

“The little princess looks exactly like Ruan Ruan when she was little.” Feng Jingyuan had just finished saying this when she heard the Empress’s voice from outside.

Feng Jingyuan and Jiang Rumeng quickly put down their children and bowed, saying, "Your humble servants greet Your Majesty the Empress. May Your Majesty enjoy boundless blessings and peace."

Empress Cheng was also very pleased and personally helped Feng Jingyuan up, saying, "Please rise quickly, Madam Jiang, there's no need for such formalities."

"Thank you, Empress Xie."

Empress Cheng took Xie Hongyou, her face beaming with joy: "My little grandson looks exactly like the Crown Prince when he was young. He's grown up to be just as handsome as Shang'er. My proudest achievement is having such a handsome son."

The Empress was naturally pleased that one son was worth a thousand sons.

At this moment, Hongxiu rushed over and called Jiang Fenghua aside, "Princess Qingping has arrived, but she seems to have encountered some trouble."

Luo Ziqiong came to visit Jiang Fenghua and her two children. She used to be the Princess Consort of Yu, and now she is a county princess, which is quite a status. Looking at the entire Shengjing City, there are very few people who can be granted the title of county princess.

Jiang Fenghua made up an excuse and followed Hongxiu.

-

Luo Ziqiong was dressed quite elegantly, and coincidentally, she ran into Princess Zhao Yunhui.

Zhao Yunhui and King Yu walked slowly forward.

"Oh, isn't this the prince's divorced wife?" Zhao Yunhui said, her mouth never holding back. Although the prince was idle at home with nothing to do, she was now the princess consort, a royal wife, and her status was indeed several levels higher than Luo Ziqiong's.

Luo Ziqiong wanted to walk around, not because she had to join in the fun, but because she did have important business to discuss with the Crown Princess today. So she sent a message to Jiang Fenghua. Jiang Fenghua, unaware of her important business, also sent an invitation to Princess Qingping.

Zhao Yunhui blocked her way, saying, "I am speaking to you, how dare you, a mere Princess of Qingping, not bow to me?"

"Greetings, Princess Yu." Luo Ziqiong only wanted to avoid trouble.

The next moment, before she could react, Zhao Yunhui slapped her across the face. "Did I say you could get up?"

Luo Ziqiong's eyes were cold. She raised her hand, wanting to slap her back. If she really hit Zhao Yunhui and made a scene, she would be nothing more than a lowly county princess, while the other party was a princess. She decided to let it go.

She was so arrogant and domineering back then, and she had such a sharp tongue. Now someone is treating her like this. It's probably karma!

"What will it take for Princess Yu to let me go? Everyone is here today to celebrate the birthday of His Highness the Crown Prince and the young prince. Princess Yu has made things too ugly; I'm afraid you'll suffer the consequences." After saying this, Luo Ziqiong walked around the crowd.

Zhao Yunhui naturally dared not make a big fuss, after all, the Zhao family had already fallen. But if it weren't for Luo Ziqiong, she wouldn't have married Xie Yu, but would have entered the palace as the Crown Prince's concubine.

Yu Wang now finds Luo Ziqiong's face much more pleasing to the eye, and thinks she has become even more beautiful in the few months he hasn't seen her.

Seeing him staring at Luo Ziqiong, Zhao Yunhui felt a surge of anger and pushed Luo Ziqiong to the ground.

Seeing Zhao Yunhui's arrogant and domineering attitude, Luo Ziqiong couldn't bear it any longer. She stood up, pulled Zhao Yunhui to the ground, sat on her waist, and slapped her hard twice. Zhao Yunhui, after being hit, also started to fight back, and the two began to wrestle.

There were many onlookers around, and Yu Wang also tried to break up the fight, saying, "Stop fighting." He thought Luo Ziqiong was fighting because of him, and he felt a little smug.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Luo Ziqiong pulled Xie Yu to the ground and slapped him twice across the face.

Xie Yu was also shocked that Luo Ziqiong would attack him, and he was so angry that he was practically fuming. "Luo Ziqiong, are you crazy?"

Actually, Luo Ziqiong had fought Xie Yu before, but women are always at a disadvantage, so she couldn't beat Xie Yu. Now, taking advantage of the chaos, she also erupted and went all out against them. Anyway, she would be punished if she made a big fuss, and she would be punished if she didn't make a fuss, so she might as well make a fuss.

So, the situation was that the three of them were wrestling together.

There were many court ladies in the surrounding area, and none of them dared to intervene. There were also many palace maids and guards, who dared not interfere in their master's affairs.

When Jiang Fenghua arrived, she saw Luo Ziqiong grabbing Xie Yu and Zhao Yunhui by the hair and refusing to let go. The two women's scalps were being pulled so hard that they had no chance to fight back.

She analyzed that Michelle Reis was in the upper hand! Wouldn't it be a loss to call a halt now?

Jiang Fenghua frowned, looking anxious. She wanted Luo Ziqiong to hold on a little longer, since they had already made a scene. She wanted to see if she could get a piece of their scalp off. However, Xie Yu was a man after all.

Just as Xie Yu was about to kick Luo Ziqiong, Jiang Fenghua told Ao Xue to stop him. Ao Xue touched some spot on their bodies, and Xie Yu was knocked off, but Luo Ziqiong collapsed to the ground in pain.

Jiang Fenghua quickly tried to mediate, "Quickly separate the three of them! What kind of deep-seated hatred or grudge could have led to this?"

Taking the opportunity, Michelle Reis kicked Xie Yu twice.

Jiang Fenghua quickly pulled Luo Ziqiong away to prevent Xie Yu from getting up and attacking her directly.

Luo Ziqiong wasn't seriously injured, but she was slapped by Zhao Yunhui and pushed to the ground, causing a minor cut on the back of her hand.

Although her hair was askew, it was still better than Zhao Yunhui and Xie Yu's hair, which was completely messed up.

Luo Ziqiong was also a fighter; she grabbed Zhao Yunhui's hair bun, her scalp and hair connected, causing her so much pain that she dared not move.

When Xie Yu came to mediate the fight, she took the opportunity to slap him twice, which put him at a disadvantage.

Xie Yu pointed at Luo Ziqiong's nose and cursed, "You dare to hit me? You just wait!"

"It was your woman who hit me first. Even if this gets to the Emperor, I'll say the same thing." Luo Ziqiong isn't afraid of him anymore now that they've divorced. Xie Yu is just a paper tiger now.
