The woman blushed and looked at Ye Xinxin in the distance with a pleading look.
Ye Xiaoxiao only took one look and realized that this woman was probably related to Ye Xinxin.
When Ye Xinxin saw Ye Xiaoxiao's half-smile, her heart skipped a beat.
He quickly shook his head at the woman, and seeing this, the woman planned to leave in shame.
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't want to let her go just like that. She looked at Han Wenjing, who was also so angry that she couldn't speak, with a playful look.
"Miss Han, today's incident is all because of you. This lady also wants to help you, so she asked us to admit our mistakes without knowing the truth."
"Of course, given Miss Han's status, we can understand why she is helping you so much."
"However, regarding today's matter, I still need to trouble Miss Han to explain it to her clearly."
"Otherwise, if a few words from you two damage His Royal Highness Prince Yu's reputation, we cannot bear the responsibility."
Han Wenjing was already panicking at this moment. When she came, Mrs. Han specifically told her not to cause trouble.
But when she saw Li Jingjing and Ye Xiaoxiao together, she wanted to embarrass them so that she could vent Madam Han's anger.
However, she didn't expect that these three people were more eloquent than the other, and she couldn't refute them at all.
Seeing that Ye Xiaoxiao had brought up Prince Yu's reputation in just a few words, Han Wenjing had no idea how to respond.
Seeing that she refused to speak, Ye Xiaoxiao knew what she was thinking.
"Miss Han, you're silent. Do you also think this girl is right? Should we apologize to you because you're Prince Yu's cousin?"
No matter how stupid Han Wenjing was, she didn't dare to respond to Ye Xiaoxiao's words.
But she didn't know how to refute, and could only look angrily at the girl who was also speechless.
"Whose daughter are you? I was just chatting with the three girls. Why do you make it seem like I'm bullying you by relying on my cousin's power?"
"What is your purpose in ruining my reputation and that of my cousin Prince Yu?"
When the girl heard this, she looked at Han Wenjing in disbelief.
"Miss Han, I clearly wanted to help you, why are you blaming me?"
Han Wenjing snorted coldly, "Help me? I think you want to harm me."
The girl was stunned. How could this be different from what Ye Xinxin said?
Ye Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow and looked at the two people who started to tear each other apart, and suddenly felt that she lost interest.
The opponent was too weak and not worth her energy, but at this moment, a shout was heard outside the hall.
"The Empress has arrived, the Consort Xian has arrived..."
Hearing the singing and cheering, Han Wenjing and the young lady breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Then they glared at Ye Xiaoxiao and the others and quickly returned to their seats.
Ye Xiaoxiao ignored them and returned to her seats with Qin Xue and Li Jingjing.
When Ye Xiaoxiao returned to Mrs. Ye, Ye Xinxin had already returned.
Judging from Ye Xinxin's expression, it seems she didn't get along very well with the other girls just now!
[However, this is just the beginning. Next, I'm afraid that Han Wenjing and that stupid lady will come looking for her.]
Mrs. Ye suddenly heard Ye Xiaoxiao's thoughts, and her heart suddenly tightened.
She didn't know that while she was talking with Madam Qin, the two of them had already secretly fought each other.
However, before she had time to think about it, the Queen had already walked in with the concubines from all the palaces.
She had no choice but to follow everyone and pay her respects to the queen and the concubines in the palace.
The queen smiled and waved to the people who were bowing.
"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet. Everyone, please don't be too formal. Please excuse yourself."
Everyone thanked the emperor, took their seats, and the singing and dancing began, and the palace banquet began.
The Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet of the Great Xia Kingdom was divided into two sessions. The first session was for men and women to be hosted separately by the emperor and the empress respectively.
First, they each enjoyed singing and dancing, and then they tasted the reunion cakes made in the palace together.
After eating the reunion cake, everyone can go to the garden specially designed for them to enjoy the flowers.
The empresses of each palace would also summon their relatives and people they wanted to summon in the garden or their own bedrooms.
While enjoying the flowers, various activities will be held in the pavilion of the garden to make it more convenient for young men and women from different families to meet each other.
It was Ye Xiaoxiao's first time attending a palace banquet, and she didn't want to be too conspicuous, so she sat quietly in her seat and enjoyed the singing and dancing.
However, she doesn't want to be conspicuous, but there are always people who don't want her to do so.
Just as the song and dance were changing, a middle-aged woman in light yellow finery beside the queen suddenly spoke.
"I heard that the Ye family's eldest daughter was swapped, but has she been found now?"
Madam Ye frowned, but still stood up respectfully and answered.
"Thank you for your concern, Her Majesty. My daughter has been found."
The virtuous concubine smiled faintly, "It would be good to find her back. I wonder which one is the legitimate daughter of the Ye family? Would you let me meet her?"
As soon as Ye Xiaoxiao saw Concubine Xian's expression, she knew that she wanted to cause trouble for her because of Han Wenjing's matter.
She stood up neither humbly nor arrogantly, then bowed first to the queen on the high throne, and then to the virtuous concubine.
"In reply to Her Majesty the Queen and Her Majesty the Consort, your servant Ye Xiaoxiao is the legitimate daughter of the Ye family."
Ye Xiaoxiao was very polite and considerate, and Concubine Xian could not find any fault with her, so she could only attack Ye Xiaoxiao's veil.
"Miss Ye, why are you wearing a veil when entering the palace? Is there something shameful about you?"
When these words were spoken, Madam Ye and Madam Qin frowned, but the others looked at Ye Xiaoxiao as if they were watching a good show.
Ye Xiaoxiao curled her lips and replied softly and slowly.
"In reply to your Majesty, I am ugly and I am afraid that I might offend you all, so I am wearing a veil."
