Chapter 22 Flower Viewing Banquet
Wen Li'er's heart tightened when she saw this, and she quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"Princess, it's just as Nanny Qin said. No one stepped on Xue Bao'er. She must have been frightened by seeing so many strangers all of a sudden."
Yan Shiyan glanced at Wen Li'er coldly. She was dressed simply and without makeup, but her appearance was extremely beautiful, and her temperament seemed even better than his.
She was even more unhappy.
These concubines in the Eastern Palace look as disgusting as that bitch Yan Shishu!
She sneered, her tone harsh: "Which palace are you from? Is there no master among you?"
Wen Li'er remained calm and said, "Your Highness, I am the Wen family of the Eastern Palace."
Yan Shiyan let out a long "oh" as if he suddenly understood something.
"So you're from the East Palace. No wonder you don't know the rules. You even dare to bully my Xue Bao'er!"
Wen Li'er's heart sank, knowing that Princess Tai'an was deliberately looking for trouble.
But she didn't dare to contradict him and just waited silently to see what he wanted to do.
Yan Shiyan sneered, "What's with your attitude? I think you must have bullied my daughter Xue Bao'er. Come here, kneel down and kowtow three times to Xue Bao'er, and I will forgive you this time."
Wen Lier discovered that people really laugh when they are speechless.
Yan Shiyan snorted coldly: "What are you laughing at?"
Wen Li'er looked extremely serious.
"Your Highness the Princess ordered those who bullied Xuebaoer to kneel and kowtow, but I did not bully it, so there is no need for Your Highness to forgive me this time."
After she finished speaking, she said softly, "The Crown Princess is still waiting for me and the others, so I will not accompany the princess to find the person who bullied Xue Baoer."
After she finished speaking, she said to the group behind her, "Let's go. Don't keep the Crown Princess waiting for too long."
Lin Fujia looked at her in surprise.
I didn’t expect Sister Wen to be so brave, so awesome!
Nanny Qin also stepped forward, held Wen Li'er's hand, and was about to walk forward.
Yan Shiyan was so angry that he almost exploded.
This Eastern Palace was simply outrageous! A mere Fengyi dared not take her, a princess, seriously!
She shouted at the palace maids and eunuchs behind her, "What are you looking at? Capture her for me!"
After saying that, she raised her hand and waved, and the palace servants behind her immediately stepped forward and surrounded Wen Li'er and Lin Fujia.
Lin Fujia turned pale with fright and grabbed Wen Li'er's sleeve tightly.
"Sister Wen, what should we do?"
Wen Li'er was also a little nervous, but she tried to remain calm and looked as steady as an old dog.
They now represent the reputation of the Eastern Palace. How could they just stand there and be bullied by Princess Tai'an?
Just as she was about to bring up the prince and talk about him, a sneer suddenly came from not far away.
"My dear sister, you've reached the age of marriage this year, but why are you still growing in size but not in brains? That vicious dog of yours only has the right to bully others, and who dares to bully it? Could it be that some handsome young man rejected your marriage today, and you're here to take it out on a mere Fengyi? If you want to vent your anger, go back to your Yanxi Palace and don't embarrass yourself here!"
Hearing this voice, Yan Shiyan's pretty face twisted with anger.
Everyone turned around at once.
Princess Taiping was seen walking slowly towards them, followed by several palace maids.
She was dressed in a lavender palace dress, and her temperament was dignified, elegant, majestic and noble.
In comparison, Princess Tai'an seems a little petty.
Yan Shiyan shouted angrily: "Yan Shishu! I didn't provoke you today, why are you so mad!"
Yan Shishu sneered: "I just can't stand some people bullying the weak."
Yan Shiyan's face turned alternately blue and white with anger. Although he felt unwilling, he did not dare to continue to entangle with this female demon.
After all, my father was fooled by this pretentious she-devil!
She said harshly, "Yan Shishu, just wait for me!"
After saying that, Yan Shiyan picked up Xue Baoer, turned around and left, and the palace maids behind him followed.
Wen Li'er and her group watched her leave before bowing to Yan Shishu.
"Meet Princess Taiping."
Yan Shishu looked Wen Li'er up and down, then looked at Lin Fujia.
"Are you all right?"
"Thank you, Princess, for rescuing me. I am fine."
Yan Shishu nodded and looked at Wen Lier again.
"Wen Fengyi, you did very well today. You are the prince's women. When you are with the public, you must not embarrass him."
"Yes, I will remember the princess's teachings."
Yan Shishu smiled and turned to go towards Yuqing Palace.
Wen Li'er and Lin Fujia bowed: "Farewell, Princess Taiping."
Because of this matter's delay, the trip to Fuyao Palace was naturally delayed as well.
The two of them couldn't help but quicken their pace.
Lin Fujia whispered, "Sister Wen, I was really scared just now. Fortunately, Princess Taiping showed up in time, otherwise we would be in trouble."
Wen Li'er nodded, she was indeed lucky today.
The group arrived at Fuyao Palace, and the Crown Princess had already set up seats in the garden.
Now is the season when flowers are in full bloom, and the garden is filled with colorful and fragrant flowers.
The Crown Princess sat in the main seat with a cold expression, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Yang Xishan had already arrived. Seeing that they were so late, she made a few sarcastic remarks.
Wen Li'er and Lin Fujia ignored her and walked forward to greet Xie Zhenrong.
"Meet the Crown Princess."
In fact, a palace maid had already come to report to Xie Zhenrong what Wen Li'er and the others had encountered on the road.
But Xie Zhenrong feigned ignorance and asked coldly, "The weather is beautiful today, and since you rarely get together, I invited you to enjoy the flowers and chat. And you're so late!"
Lin Fujia hurried forward and explained to the Crown Princess about the two princesses she met on the road.
After hearing this, Xie Zhenrong acted like the mistress of the house and lectured, "Princess Tai'an is spoiled and overbearing. If you see her in the future, avoid her directly to avoid causing any unnecessary trouble for the Eastern Palace."
"yes."
Xie Zhenrong then waved her hand, motioning them to take a seat.
Wen Li'er and Lin Fujia then bowed and stepped aside.
A palace maid came forward and poured tea for them.
Soon, the Crown Princess told them the origin of the flowers in the garden.
Wen Li'er lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea.
I thought, the Crown Princess invited them to appreciate the flowers today, probably not just to appreciate the flowers.
Sure enough, Xie Zhenrong probably felt thirsty from talking so much, so he picked up the tea and took a sip.
After drinking the tea, he didn't talk about flowers anymore, but turned his head and scanned the three Fengyis, finally stopping on Wen Lier.
"How are you these days, Wen Fengyi? I heard that His Highness rewarded you with a golden tortoise, which is quite a rare item."
Wen Li'er sighed in her heart. She guessed right. It was indeed like that.
