"Yes, Your Highness."

Su Jinyue took Su Chengjiang away, and only after they were far away did Su Chengjiang dare to look behind him!

He looked at Su Jinyue in disbelief, "You even know the Crown Prince?!"

Seeing him so surprised, Su Jinyue just glanced at him calmly, "What's so surprising about this?"

Realizing that his reaction was too strong, Su Chengjiang restrained himself a little, "I just didn't expect that you could talk to the prince!"

"But it's also good to know the prince!"

Su Chengjiang continued, with a hint of joy in his tone, "If we can establish a relationship with the prince, our Su family will be more confident in the capital in the future."

"Don't expect me to get close to the prince."

Su Jinyue never had high expectations for Su Chengjiang's brain. "Our Su family is just a courtier. It is right to keep a distance from the royal family."

"But..." Su Chengjiang frowned, "If our mansion becomes part of the prince's party..."

Before he could finish his words, Su Jinyue glared at him, "You don't want to live anymore! You openly want to form a clique in the palace?!"

Su Chengjiang immediately shut his mouth, realizing what he had almost said just now, and his face suddenly turned pale!

"You'd better not say anything, otherwise you'll get into trouble. Don't say I didn't warn you!" Su Jinyue said coldly.

Su Chengjiang was obedient at this time, nodding his head continuously, "Got it!"

The two came to the lotus pond in front of the Imperial Garden, where there were also many young men and women.

This time, men and women sat together at the palace banquet, which made it more lively than usual.

After seeing Su Jinyue, these people looked her up and down and talked about her in low voices.

"Look, that's the young lady of the Su family. She doesn't seem to be affected much since General Xiao disappeared."

"I heard that he hooked up with the prince and the crown prince a long time ago. I guess he wanted to break off the engagement a long time ago!"

"Yes, General Xiao's love for me was in vain. Now I don't know whether he is dead or alive!"

Su Jinyue heard it but did not react much, but Su Chengjiang couldn't help himself anymore!

He whispered to Su Jinyue, "How can you tolerate this?! Forget about those people. What right do they have to slander you?"

"If you listen to too much gossip, you will always find it boring."

Suddenly, there was a bustle over there.

"Look, who is that person?"

"It's the Princess of Xijiang. Why is she here too?"

"I heard that she entered the palace early and has become the favorite of His Majesty. I'm afraid that today's palace banquet will make her a concubine."

These words came into Su Jinyue's ears intermittently. She curled her lips slightly. It seemed that the princess from Western Xinjiang couldn't help it anymore.

The Princess of Xijiang brought her people to the Imperial Garden. After seeing the direction where Su Jinyue was, she ran straight towards her.

"Miss Su, what a coincidence, we meet here."

Su Jinyue bowed to the Princess of Xijiang and said, "Greetings to Princess Xihe."

Princess Xihe of Xijiang raised her hand to cover her lips and smiled, then raised her hand to help Su Jinyue up, "Why should we be so polite? You made a great contribution when you entered the palace last time."

"I was thinking about meeting Miss Su someday and wanting to say thank you to her."

Su Jinyue lowered her eyes and said, "This is what a servant should do."

Princess Xihe's gaze lingered on Su Chengjiang beside Su Jinyue for a moment, and she asked with interest, "Who is this?"

"This is my second brother, Su Chengjiang." Su Jinyue introduced.

Su Chengjiang had not expected that Su Jinyue would know the Princess of Xijiang. He was so shocked that he was speechless. Then he hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, Princess Xihe!"

Princess Xihe nodded slightly, and her lively eyes moved between the two of them, as if trying to find some clues from them.

Then, she said in a joking tone: "I heard that the second young master of the Su family is also good at both literature and martial arts. The Su family is indeed a family of scholars who produced a top scholar."

Su Chengjiang was slightly startled, and said somewhat flattered: "Princess, you are too kind to praise me. I am just an ordinary person and I don't deserve such a high praise."

As stupid as a pig, he thought Xihe was praising him?

It is true that he knows some martial arts, but the words "come from a scholarly family" are clearly a mockery.

Their Su family has always valued military generals, so where did this scholarly family come from?

Su Chengjiang actually flattered him with a licking face.

Su Jinyue bent her eyes and smiled: "It's not a scholarly family, but I just serve the public."

"My brother is not good at speaking, but he knows some martial arts. Princess Xihe, please forgive me."

Princess Xihe smiled with her eyes curved, and seemed very satisfied with Su Chengjiang's reaction.

She turned to look at Su Jinyue and said with a double meaning, "Miss Su and I hit it off right away. I don't know anyone in the Great Zhou Palace. If we can become close friends in the future, I will naturally be happy."

I'm afraid she is trying to win me over. One step forward would be like falling off a cliff.

Su Jinyue just smiled and was about to bring up something else to change the subject, but someone jumped out first.

"Su Jinyue, I think there is no one in the whole palace who is better at fawning than you. Princess Xihe has only been here for a few days, and you're already fawning over her!"

Princess Changping had suffered a lot from Su Jinyue in the past. This time, seeing that Xiao Duo and others were not around Su Jinyue, she wanted to save her face!

She led the palace maids to the two of them. Princess Changping glanced at Princess Xihe with disdain and said, "You are just prettier. His Majesty is just curious about you for a few days."

"You haven't even been named a concubine yet, and you're already making such a big show in the palace!"

Su Jinyue looked at Princess Changping, then looked at Su Chengjiang beside her.

Even if these two people were put together, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to put together a complete brain.

Has she forgotten that this is the imperial palace?

It's so stupid to say such things in public!

Everyone's attention was drawn to the scene, and they all wanted to see the excitement today.

Su Jinyue said: "Princess Xihe was sent by Xijiang to marry. Princess Changping's behavior is really detrimental to the dignity of our Great Zhou!"

After being "scolded" by Su Jinyue, Princess Changping immediately went wild, "Su Jinyue! Don't think you can teach me a lesson just by hooking up with her!"

"My aunt is the virtuous concubine! I am not afraid of you!"

Su Jinyue looked at her and said, "Now that I am also a princess, I don't need to teach you a lesson in the name of someone else."

"There are so many people here, and you have embarrassed Princess Xihe in public. If His Majesty knew about this, you would be punished with confinement again!"

Princess Changping raised her finger in disbelief and pointed at Su Jinyue, "Are you threatening me?!"

"I will definitely tell the Concubine Xian about this matter. Just wait for her to punish you!"

After Princess Changping's interference, Princess Xihe was not in a position to continue what she was saying.

Although she had a smile on her face, her hands hidden in her sleeves were clenched into fists. This Princess Changping came at a really bad time!

Su Jinyue deliberately poked at Princess Changping's sore spot just to make her act like a rogue.

"Su Jinyue! You wait for me!"
