Jun Shihuai's lips curled up. Seeing this, the princes and princesses, who were already furious, were now furious to death.
Jun Li reached out and pushed the melon seed plate in front of Jun Shihuai, smiling and saying, "Peel the melon seeds."
The two people behind him breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the princess had changed her position and came here specifically to let the Fourth Prince peel melon seeds. They thought that the princess had changed her mind about the Fourth Prince. However, the Fourth Prince was really pitiful. He had to sweep the palace and be ordered around by the princess during this period.
Wen Yu couldn't bear it, so she said, "Princess, let me do it."
How could Jun Li let Wen Yu come? It was not appropriate for her to sit here in the first place. If Jun Shihuai was allowed to be so relaxed, the days ahead would probably be difficult. So Jun Li decisively refused: "Just let him come."
Jun Shihuai obediently reached out and helped her peel the melon seeds.
It didn't take long before the eunuch's shrill voice was heard: "The Emperor, Empress, and Imperial Concubine have arrived——"
Everyone stood up and shouted "Long live" and "Thousand live!"
The emperor must be in a good mood today. Although his face looked haggard and sick, the smile on his lips never disappeared. He held the queen's hand and walked all the way to the upper seat. The imperial concubine followed behind and only sat down after they were seated.
"No need to be so polite, my lords. Today is the Winter Feast, so just drink and enjoy yourself."
Whatever the emperor says is the truth, and his ministers will follow suit.
Then there was singing, dancing and laughter.
After the glamorous dancers left, it was time for the young lady from the minister's family to perform. It was more like a blind date than a banquet. Soon, Jun Li felt that Zhen Ye was getting a little anxious. Looking across at Qin Lian, he was obviously absent-minded. Jun Li immediately said considerately, "The party is coming to an end. You don't have to wait here. Go out and have fun if you want."
It was already dark at this time. In order to suit the occasion, lanterns were lit everywhere in the palace, making it bright everywhere. Many young ladies couldn't sit still and went out to play. After all, there were not many opportunities to enter the palace every year, let alone look around. Only at this time could they appreciate the palace properly.
Zhen Ye left immediately. Wen Yu and Yu Yan were clearly still unsure about her. Jun Li's goal was to get them out of the way. She said impatiently, "That's enough. I'll have my younger brother to serve me."
Her tone became more serious, and the two men dared not say anything more and walked away hand in hand.
When Jun Shihuai heard the word "imperial brother" from her again, his eyes changed, but his hands did not slow down. Jun Li saw that he was still peeling melon seeds, and was afraid that his hands would be hurt. At this moment, everyone's attention was not here, so she said, "No need to peel."
Jun Shihuai really stopped peeling the apples, but started helping her choose snacks, all of which she liked.
Jun Li was somewhat touched: "Look at how well I have trained Jun Shihuai. He is considerate and obedient."
0405: "I'm a little scared."
Jun Li: "What are you afraid of?"
0405: "People who say this usually get slapped in the face in the end."
Jun Li was about to say something when Qin Lian stood up. Jun Li suddenly became anxious and stood up as well. As luck would have it, Jun Shihuai just handed her a piece of dessert. When Jun Li stood up, she bumped into his hand holding the dessert, and the dessert immediately fell to the ground.
She wanted to say a few words to Jun Shihuai, but when she saw Qin Lian was about to disappear, she had to harden her heart and walk in Qin Lian's direction.
