The next day, as the hostess of the Azure Dragon Kingdom, Feng Qinghuang naturally hosted a banquet for her senior brothers. Of course, Rong Qi, that tagalong, was no exception.
As soon as the group arrived at the main hall of Mingyue Tower, the servant, seeing the arrival of the young master and the princess, along with several other distinguished guests, was naturally overjoyed and quickly led them to a private room on the second floor.
Just as the group reached the corner of the stairs on the second floor, they suddenly heard a sharp sound.
"Brother, look, isn't that my cousin and the others?"
The owner of the voice was none other than You Xuewu, who had been searching for Di Wuyou in vain. You Xuewu was overjoyed; she had finally seen Di Wuyou.
You Xueming pulled at You Xuewu, who was trying to run over: "Wu'er, I brought you out to eat today, not to cause trouble."
You Xuewu struggled to break free from You Xueming: "Royal brother, let me go. I'm not going to cause trouble. I just want to have dinner with them. Besides, we're all acquaintances. What's wrong with sitting together?"
"If you keep causing trouble, I'll take you back."
You Xuewu quieted down: "Even if we can't sit together, let's go to the private room on the second floor. We are honored guests of Youlan Kingdom. What would it look like if we sat in the lobby?"
You Xue thought for a moment. Given their status, sitting in the main hall would indeed attract too much attention; it would be better to sit in a private room. Just as he was about to ask the waiter to arrange a private room for them as well...
The waiter who was greeting them said, "Excuse me, esteemed guests, our private rooms must be booked in advance, otherwise we will not be able to use them."
Upon hearing the servant's words, You Xuewu angrily pointed at his nose: "Hey, you dog servant! I am the legitimate princess of Youlan Kingdom, and the person next to me is our Crown Prince. How dare you make us sit in the main hall? Do you know that this is a great disrespect in Youlan Kingdom? And why can they go up directly while we have to make a reservation? Are you bullying outsiders?"
The servant beside her was also very dedicated; despite You Xuewu's aggressive questioning, he didn't show any impatience or anger. Only his clenched fists betrayed his true feelings.
The innkeeper, who was at the very back, saw this and quickly came out to stop it. He pulled the servant behind him and respectfully addressed You Xueming and You Xuewu.
"The Crown Prince and the young princess sent someone yesterday to reserve a private room for today. It's not because they have any special privileges. If Your Highness the Princess and the Crown Prince also wish to use a private room, please make a reservation in advance. As for when it will be available, that depends on the availability of private rooms. As for what the Princess said about bullying outsiders, our Mingyue Pavilion would never do such a thing. In our Qinglong Kingdom, everyone is equal. We urge Your Highness to win people over with virtue."
When You Xuewu heard the shopkeeper intentionally or unintentionally saying that she was being unreasonable and even lacking in morality, she was on the verge of exploding.
"How dare you speak to this princess like that? Is this how the Azure Dragon Kingdom treats its distinguished guests?"
You Xueming pulled You Xuewu aside: "Alright, Wu'er, say less. What did you tell me before you left the palace? You said you would listen and not make a fuss. How long are you going to keep this up?"
You Xuewu glared angrily at her elder brother: "Brother, am I the one making a scene? They're the ones bullying me."
"Alright, shut up."
After speaking about You Xuewu, You Xueming turned to the shopkeeper and said, "I'm very sorry, shopkeeper, my younger sister is spoiled. What happened just now was unreasonable on our part, and I, the Crown Prince, apologize to the shopkeeper and everyone. After all, she is a princess of a country and has never been wronged before. Her words may have been a bit harsh, so please, shopkeeper and this young man, don't take it to heart."
The shopkeeper, seeing that he had already made a good offer, said, "Your Highness is too kind. We are open for business and naturally welcome distinguished guests. However, this is the rule of Mingyue Tower, and there is nothing I can do about it."
Just as You Xueming was about to say something, Rong Qi, who was at the corner on the second floor, spoke up.
"Manager, let them come up here and give them our private room."
After Rong Qi finished speaking, the group looked at him simultaneously. Rong Qi's calm expression made them swallow their doubts for the time being.
Upon hearing his master's words, the shopkeeper quickly replied, "Yes, Your Highness."
His master didn't want anyone to know his identity, but now he can't hide it anymore.
Upon hearing Rong Qi's words, You Xuewu assumed that they had compromised.
"Hmph, your young master is much more magnanimous."
The innkeeper ignored her and had a servant lead them to the second floor, to the private room that originally belonged to Rong Qi and his group.
At the corner on the second floor, You Xueming nodded to Rong Qi, and Rong Qi nodded back in response.
You Xuewu, however, acted superior, as if Rong Qi had given up the private room because of her.
Rong Qi nodded to the shopkeeper downstairs. The shopkeeper picked up a key, went up to the second floor, and personally led Rong Qi and the others to the innermost part of the second floor.
