Chapter 214 Sending Pearl Flowers
Su Chenyu stretched out her hand and tapped his forehead: "You decide for yourself."
Baili Yanqing hugged her tighter: "Then I will just hold on to you and not let go."
Su Chenyu was amused by Baili Yanqing: "Come on, I was just joking with you. Let's get back to the point. How angry do you think the Queen Mother must be right now?"
"Will we know by the time of the full moon banquet?" Baili Yanqing replied, "This full moon banquet is a big day, and Concubine Yun is also looking forward to this day to return to the public and seize power from Concubine Shu."
Su Chenyu smiled: "The emperor's thoughts are really becoming more and more."
On the surface, Emperor Jing of Wei wanted to see a peaceful situation, but he was afraid of this situation. Naming the sixth prince Su Chengsi was to announce to the world how much he valued this child, so that Concubine Yun could have her own faction in the harem.
After all, Emperor Jing of Wei did not trust Concubine Shu, he only trusted Li Heng.
But will everything really be as Emperor Jing of Wei thought?
This time, the dignitaries invited to the Sixth Prince's full moon banquet were all personally decided by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. Among all the noble ladies, Yan Ruqin seemed out of place.
Even Mrs. Yan herself didn't understand why the Queen Mother specially invited Yan Ruqin?
The full moon banquet was held at night, and everyone entered the palace near dusk.
The banquet was held outside the main hall. The lanterns all over the hall made the night as bright as day. It was refreshing along with the gentle night breeze.
The banquet had not yet begun, and the young ladies from various families were gathered in groups of three or five to chat and laugh. Only Yan Ruqin was standing aside with no one around her.
Seeing Yan Ruqin alone, Yu Jiahui couldn't help but come over with her sisters and sneered: "Yan Ruqin, why are you here alone without anyone to talk to? How boring!"
Yan Ruqin didn't even raise her eyelids: "No need to bother Miss."
"Yan Ruqin, why are you pretending to be so noble? You are a young lady raised in a country farm, and you think you are so noble? If you were not useful, would the Yan family remember you?"
Yu Jiahui found out clearly that the reason why the Yan family took Yan Ruqin back home was because Madam Yan's second daughter was weak and could not recover.
Mrs. Yan heard from the fortune teller that if someone could protect her second daughter from disaster, her health would improve. The person who could protect her from disaster must be her blood relative.
It was for this reason that Mrs. Yan thought of her eldest daughter whom she had sent to the countryside to raise in her early years. She brought Yan Ruqin back to Beijing just to ward off disaster.
Yu Jiahui was deliberately poking at her heart, but unfortunately Yan Ruqin was not the real daughter of the Yan family, and would not be sad about such a thing at all: "Miss Yu, you don't need to worry about my feelings, just take care of yourself. After all, as the daughter of the Minister of Rites, you are so ignorant of etiquette. If you tell others about it, others will doubt whether Lord Yu is worthy of the position of Minister of Rites!"
"Yan Ruqin, don't be so proud here. Don't think that just because the Queen Mother invited you, you can fly up to the tree and become a phoenix. You are dreaming."
Yan Ruqin sneered in her heart. She wondered how she had offended this Miss Yu again. It turned out that the Queen Mother had specially invited her and made her jealous.
"Miss Yu, the Queen Mother invited me because she believed I would not cause any trouble at the banquet. She did not invite Miss Yu specifically because she was worried that Miss Yu was lively and would inevitably lose control of her behavior. If you can't change this bad habit, who can rest assured?"
"Yan Ruqin!" Yu Jiahui heard her mockery of herself and reached out to hit her, but was stopped.
Li Muyuan arrived early, but he just stayed there quietly, his eyes vaguely searching for someone.
It wasn't until Yan Ruqin showed up that Li Muyuan felt relieved. He had something to say to Yan Ruqin, but before he could come over, Yu Jiahui came to pick a fight.
Seeing Yu Jiahui about to fight, Li Muyuan could no longer hold back and rushed over to stop her: "Why do these young ladies in the capital like to hit people, just like those street shrews?"
Yu Jiahui couldn't accept being described by Li Muyuan as a shrew. She ran away crying, and the people around her also dispersed when they saw her.
