Everyone was shocked. It was all because Xu Jinghuai had inexplicably gone to the Lantern Festival banquet last time, but now why was he attending a women's coming-of-age ceremony? This was completely outrageous!
Could it be that the servant who reported it was confused?
They all looked towards the entrance of the banquet hall, and actually saw the cold and fierce Xu Jinghuai in black clothes walking in. His eyes were cold and his face seemed to be covered with a layer of oppressive frost.
He finally sat down far away from Xu Jingye.
People began to discuss the purpose of Xu Jinghuai's sudden appearance today.
Is it because of Yan Yunshu, or because of the goddess?
Although Yan Yunshu is Xu Jinghuai's future princess, it is said that Xu Jinghuai has always been dissatisfied with the emperor's arranged marriage, so it is obviously impossible that he came just for Yan Yunshu!
Then, it is obviously more reasonable to say that Xu Jinghuai came to join in the fun because of the goddess.
It seems that even someone as aloof as Xu Jinghuai cannot escape the charm of the goddess!
Everyone felt more and more that they had made the right decision to come today.
Xu Jingye in the front row looked at his younger brother. He had no idea from Xu Jinghuai’s facial expression what had just happened in the palace. Damn it!
He always looks like an icy old man, with that cold and aloof look. Who is he performing for?
Fuck you!
Xu Jingye looked kind, but he was cursing in his heart.
When he cursed more intensely, a trace of viciousness could not be hidden and flashed across his face. Just at this moment, Xu Jinghuai looked at him with cold eyes. His face froze and a hypocritical expression immediately appeared.
Xu Jinghuai just glanced at him contemptuously and didn't look at him again.
Xu Jingye was filled with resentment in his heart, but he pretended to remain calm on the surface. He looked at the extraordinarily luxurious coming-of-age ceremony stage and gradually became a little anxious.
Although, he had a backup plan for Yan Yunshu and was determined to get her.
But at this moment he still urgently wanted to know the result of the choice made by this vicious woman Yan Yunshu.
Even if Yan Yunshu is a piece of shit, his possessiveness tells him that he hopes this piece of shit will belong to him wholeheartedly.
The two princes, as well as the dukes and ministers, all arrived.
The coming-of-age ceremony began with a burst of ritual music.
The coming-of-age ceremony began soon.
The first person to enter was Yan Xiaoxiao, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue. She was dressed in red and had a dignified makeup, and everyone admired her.
The next to appear were He Lianzhi, the second daughter of the Minister of the Central Secretariat, and Ouyang Yan, the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Anding. They were both dressed in white, as if they had agreed on it. They moved like willows swaying in the wind, looking pitiful and delicate, with tears in their eyes. People couldn't help but secretly look at Xu Jinghuai. It was this King of Hell who locked up two such weak women in the Ministry of Justice prison and kept them there for more than ten days before releasing them.
This is too fragile because of damaging the body.
Xu Jinghuai looked at them coldly, his expression not relaxing at all.
You deserve it! I'll let you swear! If you do it again, it won't just be a matter of imprisonment!
The next person to appear was Yan Shuyao, the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
As the announcement was made, everyone looked towards the stage, holding their breath.
Yan Shuyao, dressed in a pink dress, walked gracefully onto the stage with lotus steps. The dress was covered with gold threads and jewels, which was gorgeous and eye-catching. She had a graceful figure and a delicate figure, just like a swaying peach blossom in spring. Her delicately made-up face exuded a charming glow under the sunlight. Her cute and adorable eyebrows were slightly frowned, as if containing a hint of sadness that could captivate people's souls.
"Goddess! She is indeed a goddess!"
Everyone was amazed. Who could have imagined that with such a beautiful face, half a month ago, she had been poisoned by an incurable poison and was so festering!
"Ms. Shuyao, you are simply a stunningly beautiful woman who can captivate the whole country!!!"
"A woman like this is worthy of our gentle and kind Crown Prince!"
Everyone praised loudly, and Xu Jingye was already feeling elated.
He looked at Yan Shuyao with his eyes full of obsession, having already forgotten Yan Yunshu. He nodded in agreement unconsciously. Yan Shuyao really always exuded an amazing charm that no one could resist.
Even with the throne in front of him, he would still hesitate when facing Yan Shuyao.
If Yan Yunshu still refuses to repent, it would be great if Yan Shuyao could be his main wife.
As for Yan Yunshu, he naturally had a more sinister plan to tie her to his side.
Just the day before yesterday, Yan Shuyao's words woke him up.
"Your Highness, if my sister is stubborn and refuses to change her ways, after she reaches the age of 15, Your Highness can find a way to make things settled with her. That way, my sister will stop being stubborn and will be forced to follow Your Highness. This will also allow my sister to get what she wants. Everything is for her own good."
If at that time Xu Jinghuai insisted that it was Yan Yunshu who disregarded her moral integrity and took the initiative to climb into his bed, Yan Yunshu's reputation would be ruined, and she would have no choice but to marry him, and she would not be allowed to be his principal wife. Giving her the position of a concubine would already be the utmost kindness.
In this way, Yao'er becomes his legal wife, and Yan Yunshu's maternal grandfather's power can also be taken into his pocket. It's simply wonderful!
But it is impossible for him to personally make the decision, so just let any guard do it!
He couldn't bring himself to bite this vicious woman!
Thinking of this, Xu Jingye made up his mind, and all his restless and nervous mood disappeared.
He glanced at Xu Jinghuai with a smug look and a look of disdain in his eyes.
Humph, you are still a little naive to fight with me!!!
If one of your plans fails, I, your royal brother, have countless backup plans!
Just when Xu Jingye was thinking about it beautifully, a notification sounded.
"Yan Yunshu, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, accepts the gift!"
Everyone's eyes fell on the entrance, some with disdain, some with contempt, some perfunctory, and some watching the fun.
There was a muffled sound in the banquet hall, which was the sound of everyone whispering and sighing.
Outside the window, the light snow turned into heavy snow, and the snow flew everywhere, covering the entire world.
Xu Jinghuai looked quietly towards the entrance.
A crescent-white skirt first caught people's eyes.
The skirt was exquisitely crafted, with the pearls on it faintly visible, and it had an astonishingly beautiful and elegant appearance. Everyone admired it, saying that this dress must have been made by the most outstanding embroiderer in Tianze Country.
It's just a pity that it was worn by such an ugly and vicious woman.
Amidst the admiration and regret of the crowd, Yan Yunshu walked forward, and her stunning appearance was finally revealed to everyone.
Her appearance was like a brilliant firework blooming in the night sky.
With a loud bang, the most beautiful scene they had ever seen in their life exploded in everyone's heart.
Everyone gasped.
What?
Is this Yan Yunshu?
That most vicious daughter of Tianze, Yan Yunshu?
How come she is so bright and beautiful?
Those eyes were like clear autumn water, with countless stars hidden in the shimmering waves. Just a slight glance seemed to make everything in the world pale in comparison.
Yes, the first four noble ladies, even goddesses, were in front of her.
There is no color at all.
