Jiang Qiao gave such a well-intentioned reason, so even if Jiang Ji was angry, he couldn't vent it. He couldn't blame Jiang Qiao in front of so many people.
"In that case, it's understandable. Please return to your seat!"
Jiang Qiao spoke slowly and calmly, "Yes, thank you for your understanding, Father."
Ever since Jiang Qiao came in, Rong Sui's eyes have never left her.
Is this the eldest princess of Anhuai Kingdom? They look alike.
Is it him?
Rong Zhengxuan, who was standing beside him, noticed the look in his brother's eyes and sneered, "Brother, have you set your sights on this princess? I've heard that the Princess of Anhuai is brutal and bloodthirsty, with a terrible reputation. She's a perfect match for you, brother."
Rong Sui immediately withdrew his thoughts upon hearing the voice, as if nothing had happened, "Don't forget what we are here for!"
Rong Zhengxuan narrowed his eyes and drank the wine in front of him. An Huaiguo was becoming more and more powerful. They came here this time, saying that they were having a social gathering, but in fact they were also here to test the waters.
But he still wanted to annoy Rong Sui, "Brother, you've forgotten, but I haven't. Aren't you here to marry a foreign princess? Once you marry the princess of Anhuai Kingdom, you'll be on the list of great successes."
He just wanted to rub Rong Sui's self-esteem into the ground bit by bit and let him know how useless he was.
But he didn't know that these words meant nothing to Rong Sui. Although he was the top performer in Manchunlou, in the eyes of others, it was just a noble little restaurant and he had heard all kinds of things.
"Second brother, do you think this way? Is it out of jealousy?"
"Snap—"
Rong Zhengxuan put down his wine glass heavily.
The voice was not loud, but it was particularly abrupt at the banquet, and more and more eyes were focused on Rong Zhengxuan.
Jiang Ji sat at the head of the table and looked towards Ningyuan Kingdom. "Is it that the wine from Anhuai Kingdom doesn't suit the Second Prince's taste?"
Rong Zhengxuan knew he should keep a low profile. It was all the fault of that loser Rong Sui. He stood up and bowed slightly. "No, it's just that I can't handle the alcohol!"
Jiang Ji nodded, "That's good."
After saying that, he looked at Rong Sui. The spy reported that the Crown Prince of Ningyuan Kingdom was found recently. He should be the heir to the throne chosen by the Emperor of Ningyuan Kingdom, otherwise he would not have gone to so much trouble to find him. He is still the Crown Prince.
Since he has come here to propose marriage, I wonder which princess he will take a fancy to. He only has four daughters. The third princess, Jiang Caiyin, is not suitable. Her mother is just a lowly palace maid and her status is not high enough. I believe that Ningyuan Kingdom will not choose such a person to be the mother of a country.
Yongning is not an option either. She is still young and how can she marry alone in a foreign country?
Then there are only two candidates left, the eldest princess Jiang Qiao and the second princess Jiang Roujia.
Chi Qian'an wants to marry Changle. The Chi family is powerful, and it is inevitable that Changle will have other thoughts about Jiang Yanchuan after she marries him.
Jiang Ji needs to think about it carefully.
Just when Rong Zhengxuan made the noise, Jiang Qiao was inevitably attracted.
She looked at the person next to Rong Zhengxuan with an incredible look on her face.
Oh my god, that’s Wuhuan!
[Host, yes, that is Wuhuan.]
Jiang Qiao: [Wangcai, is he of such a high status? The Crown Prince of Ningyuan?]
That’s right.
Jiang Qiao was a little scared. She wondered if Wuhuan would recognize her. She was wearing men's clothes when she went to Manchunlou and even put on makeup!
How could she, the eldest princess of Anhuai Kingdom, be discovered visiting a brothel and even ordering a top prostitute to accompany her for drinking?
Wangcai: [How should I know?]
Jiang Qiao: [Ah, right, right, you know nothing!]
Wangcai: ...I have been affected by Yin and Yang.
Rong Sui was also observing Jiang Qiao quietly. The eldest princess of An Huai Kingdom was quite unique and liked to eat with her head down.
Before he came to Anhuai Kingdom, his father did tell him that if he wanted to gain a foothold in Ningyuan Kingdom, he must get the help of Anhuai Kingdom.
The ministers of Ningyuan State were very dissatisfied with his return.
Rong Sui didn't want to be emperor, but he was greedy by nature. The more he got, the more he wanted.
Power, who doesn’t want it?
He wants everyone to kneel at his feet. Doesn't he want others to taste the same suffering he has endured?
…
The banquet sounds interesting, but it is actually boring.
It’s always the same few steps. Now it’s time for the young lady from the aristocratic family to perform on stage again.
However, this time there was no drawing of lots, and all unmarried women of college age were required to participate.
Jiang Qiao: Who made this rule? Why are women the only ones allowed to have sex, and not men? I should have gotten engaged to Chi Qinan earlier!
The princesses were the last to appear, and everyone knew that the Prince of Ningyuan came this time to marry one of the princesses.
In fact, Jiang Qiao was devastated. Based on her experience of reading many novels, she had helped Rong Sui in the past. When Rong Sui found out that she was the one who helped him, he would definitely fall in love with her uncontrollably.
Jiang Qiao: I’m not being narcissistic, this is what’s written in all the novels I’ve read!
Wangcai: [I know, I know!]
He doesn't care.
Jiang Qiao returned to the main story. She looked towards the center of the hall. The person who was about to perform was Wei Zhilan, the only daughter of the Minister of Revenue. She was performing... boxing?!
Jiang Qiao widened her eyes. This lady was quite interesting and she liked her.
After the set of boxing was finished, everyone present fell silent.
Only the Minister of Revenue kept clapping: She is worthy of being my daughter, her temperament is amazing!
Jiang Qiao also praised her and asked Yu Xing to send some things over.
Jiang Yanchuan noticed the movement beside him and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Eldest sister likes her?"
Jiang Qiao nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, I like it."
"Eldest sister can like someone so easily, why did she hate me so much back then?"
