Yunchang pretended to be calm, clasped his fists, bowed to the princes, and said with a smile.
Prince Ling smiled, "It is my sister who speaks her mind. Master Yun, please do not be offended. It seems that the Yun Mansion is full of guests today, so I will not bother you at the gate. We will talk later."
"Yes, then I will follow you into the mansion first. Master Yun, you guys go ahead and get busy."
After Nangong Yao finished speaking, the Yunchang brothers breathed a sigh of relief and bowed again. Yunxuan hurriedly stepped out and said, "I will accompany you, the nobles, to go in first."
After everyone left, Yunhe hurriedly pulled up his sleeves and quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Just as he was about to complain, another luxurious carriage stopped at the door of the Yun Mansion. He hurriedly tidied his appearance, stayed beside Yunchang, and greeted the guests with a smile on his face again.
When Chaoge was having a great time chatting with the ladies, who knew that the maid from the Yun residence came to the women's hall with a few people.
When Chaoge saw the people coming, he was quite surprised. When he looked at Princess Mingyan next to Anlina and Princess An, he was even more surprised.
"Meet Princess Mo."
"Mingyan meets Aunt Huang."
Anlina's adaptability was so impressive that not only Chaoge, but even the people present who had witnessed the scene between her and Chaoge in the Prime Minister's Mansion had to admire this woman.
"No need to be polite, everyone, please come to the table and serve tea."
Chaoge smiled politely at the mother and daughter, and followed all the necessary etiquette as the host. She did not say another word to them. In her opinion, the mother and daughter were definitely not here to make peace.
As for the matters in North City, she was too busy and had no time to settle accounts with them. She hoped that the mother and daughter would not give her a surprise today.
After Chaoge instructed the servants to serve tea, his eyes fell on Princess Mingyan who was standing beside him.
"I didn't expect that the princess would come today."
Looking at Princess Mingyan, let alone Chaoge was surprised, who here was not surprised?
Due to Princess Mingyan's aloof and proud personality, there is almost no banquet in the mansion that could invite this Buddha.
Although she was just a princess, she was the daughter of the queen and had been aloof since childhood. She didn't get close to anyone. Even if some ladies wanted to curry favor with her, after a few of them were rejected, gradually no one bothered to try.
But today, Chaoge's fourth uncle's wedding banquet was held, but no one expected that this host would come. Even Bi Chen, who had been the most active and angry in the women's hall just now, could not help but suddenly shut her mouth when she saw her eldest sister, and dared not speak carelessly anymore.
Princess Mingyan looked at Chaoge, with a faint smile on her cold and beautiful face. But compared to her who never smiled in the past, Chaoge felt that Princess Mingyan today was really giving him face.
"Aunt Imperial, you are joking. How could I not come for such an important event? This is also a rare opportunity to get closer to Aunt Imperial."
Chaoge...
Hearing such polite words coming from Princess Mingyan's mouth, Chaoge suddenly felt a little uncomfortable all over.
Fortunately, she was very good at managing her facial expressions, and she still had a smile on her face. "Princess Mingyan, you are joking. You and I can meet whenever you want. There is no need to be so polite."
Originally, Chaoge thought that Princess Mingyan was an aloof person who seldom spoke. However, after spending some time with her today, Chaoge realized that Princess Mingyan was not really aloof. She might just be a person with a cold personality and was not willing to talk much.
When everyone was chatting, she just listened quietly. When others talked to her, she would also reply briefly with a sentence or two.
As for Princess An and her daughter, after Chaoge spoke a few words to them at the beginning, he ignored them ever since they entered the women's hall.
The two seemed to have prepared themselves mentally for a long time, ready to be ostracized by Chaoge and the other ladies, and the smart one did not show any special behavior today.
There must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary, and the fact that these two people could be so shameless as to appear here, Chaoge always felt that something was wrong.
Because of suspicion, Chaoge did not forget to use his wood-related skills to take a thorough look at the mother and daughter while chatting with the ladies.
Sure enough, some people actually carried something with them.
After a while, Chaoge called Ziping, who had deliberately rushed back today, to his side and whispered a few words in her ear. Ziping retreated expressionlessly.
After a while, the banquet officially began.
Chaoge was always on guard for such banquets. Dong Jiu checked every dish served one by one in front of the moon-shaped archway before allowing them to be sent to the backyard and front yard.
After eating and drinking, everything was peaceful and most people had no intention of leaving.
Fortunately, the palace's steward came to help, and many of the palace's servants were mobilized. In just one day, the Yun Mansion had been decorated to accommodate hundreds of guests. The capital's most popular singing and dancing troupe was also invited to add to the fun, making the place very lively.
After dinner, Chaoge took a group of female relatives to the stage set up in the backyard garden to watch a show.
Princess An and her daughter, who had been sitting on the bench for most of the day, did not leave and continued to follow.
While watching the show, someone really did something weird.
Tea was finally poured on Anlina, and Chaoge knew that she was about to start making trouble.
"How can you be so careless? You can't even do such a small thing. Go down and accept your punishment!"
The maid who spilled tea on Anlina knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Chaoge frowned and scolded her coldly.
The maid was so frightened that she trembled and knelt on the ground begging for mercy, but was finally dragged away.
Looking at the tea on Anlina's body, Chaoge smiled and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, the servants in the mansion were so reckless. I'll have someone take the princess downstairs to change into new clothes."
Anlina nodded lightly, then stood up and left with her personal maid, following Ziping.
Here, the play on the stage is still going on, and Chaoge's wood skills have been activated.
Anlina followed Ziping to a side courtyard near the garden. Ziping took her in to choose a new set of clothes and planned to serve her personally.
"Thank you very much."
Listening to Anlina's words, Ziping's expressionless face still showed no emotion.
Sure enough, what their young lady said was right. This woman really wants to do something?
She clearly brought her own personal maid, and as a maid of the master's family, she politely offered to help her change clothes, and Anlina didn't refuse?
Just as Zi Ping was complaining in her heart, a faint fragrance lingered in her nose. She suddenly stopped what she was doing and reached out to press her temple.
"Girl, what's wrong with you?"
Alina looked at Ziping, who was standing with her eyes slightly closed and looking a little dazed, and quickly pretended to be concerned and asked softly.
"Your servant, your servant feels a little dizzy, but, maybe, maybe a little tired."
