The queen noticed Xinya's hostility towards Ye Xiaoxiao and immediately interrupted the awkward situation.
"The arrival of Dayu's envoy today is a happy occasion, so we won't talk about this."
Shangguan Du was also somewhat disgusted by Princess Xinya's arrogance and directly picked up the wine glass.
"The Queen is absolutely right. I am very happy today. I would like to offer a toast to you all."
When Shangguan Du raised his glass, the court officials naturally did not dare to disrespect him, so they all raised their glasses with smiles on their faces.
The first round of confrontation between Xinya and Ye Xiaoxiao was interrupted by everyone.
Although Xinya was not convinced, she understood the situation clearly. She raised her glass with a faint smile, suppressing the anger in her heart.
But there is still a long time to go and she still has a chance, so she is not in a hurry.
After the emperor toasted with everyone, he began to think about his own affairs, so he made an excuse of being tired and left first.
The emperor stood up, and the queen and others followed him out. Without the presence of those in high positions, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became much more lively.
Shangguan Lingyun didn't want to restrict everyone, so he suggested that they go out to appreciate the flowers after eating and drinking.
He took Dugu Xin and Ye Xiaoxiao to a pavilion to talk.
Xinya wanted to follow, but Dugu Xin sent her away with a random excuse.
Xinya was very angry and went to a pond to pull the flowers and plants to vent her anger.
"The princess is a distinguished guest of our Great Xia. Who has made her so angry?"
Liu Yiyi has been keeping an eye on Princess Xinya since the moment she confronted Ye Xiaoxiao.
Now seeing her sulking by the pond, he immediately went up to her.
Princess Xinya heard Liu Yiyi's voice and looked at her warily.
"Who are you? What does this princess's business have to do with you?"
Liu Yiyi didn't care about Xinya's attitude. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Although Princess Xinya also had feelings for Shangguan Lingyun, she didn't mind.
After all, she knew that it would be difficult to shake Ye Xiaoxiao's position on her own.
Moreover, the Liu family doesn't want to do anything that would offend others, and neither does Liu Yiyi.
When Princess Xinya asked, Liu Yiyi smiled faintly and revealed her identity.
"Meet Princess Xinya. I am the Crown Prince's cousin, Liu Yiyi, the granddaughter of the Great Xia Grand Tutor."
Before Princess Xinya came to Daxia, she already had a basic understanding of the identities of everyone in Daxia.
"So it's Miss Liu. What do you want from me?"
Looking at Xinya's vigilant eyes, Liu Yiyi smiled faintly.
"Princess, there is no need to be so hostile to me. I know that you like my cousin. I can help you."
Princess Xinya raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Liu Yiyi with disdain.
"Help me? Miss Liu, I'm afraid even she doesn't believe what you're saying."
Princess Xinya could tell at a glance that Liu Yiyi had ulterior motives towards her. After thinking about it carefully, she understood the reason.
Seeing that she had seen through her plan, Liu Yiyi didn't hide anything and directly stated her purpose.
"Yes, I like my cousin the prince too, but he only has feelings for that bitch."
"I don't know what kind of seductive tricks she used on my cousin. She actually didn't allow him to choose a concubine. What right did she have?"
Princess Xinya looked at Liu Yiyi's jealous expression, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.
"Why? I think she's right about one thing."
Liu Yiyi didn't react for a moment and asked, "What?"
"Although this princess likes Shangguan Lingyun, this princess admires Ye Xiaoxiao's personality."
"Any woman wouldn't like her man to have three wives and four concubines. She's not wrong."
Liu Yiyi snorted disdainfully, "Princess, what you said is quite interesting."
"Since she is not at fault, then why are you still competing with her for your husband? Don't you want to marry your cousin, the Crown Prince?"
Princess Xinya looked at Liu Yiyi as if she were an idiot.
"A gentleman is a good match for a lady. There's nothing wrong with that."
"Just because I like the Crown Prince doesn't mean I want to be his concubine, and it certainly doesn't mean I can tolerate his other women."
Princess Xinya's words were very domineering, but Liu Yiyi found it very funny.
Liu Yiyi couldn't stand Princess Xinya's arrogance and didn't want to waste time talking to her anymore.
"Princess, you are right. Since you are determined to win, Yiyi wishes you good luck."
Liu Yiyi was about to leave after she finished speaking, but was stopped by Princess Xinya.
"Stop, you haven't finished speaking."
Liu Yiyi no longer wanted to talk to her, but she still hoped that Princess Xinya would go and cause trouble for Ye Xiaoxiao.
Liu Yiyi thought about it before speaking.
"There's a No. 1 manor in the capital. As long as you have enough silver, you can buy any information you want to know."
After Liu Yiyi finished speaking, she turned around and left without waiting for Princess Xinya to say anything else.
Princess Xinya snorted disdainfully, but she eventually kept the title of the best manor in the world in mind.
Not far away, the two maids who served her saw Liu Yiyi leave, and immediately came forward to ask with concern.
"Princess, are you okay? Who was that woman just now?"
Princess Xinya said a few simple words and the two of them understood.
"Princess, are you really planning to go to that No. 1 Manor in the World?"
Princess Xinya nodded, and another palace maid thought for a moment and spoke again.
"Princess, if I remember correctly, the No. 1 Manor in the World should have been founded by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Princess Xinya looked at her maid in confusion.
"Nina, are you telling the truth?"
The maid called Nina nodded and said with certainty.
"Yes, Princess. I once heard the secret guards around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mention it."
