Ren Yaoqi had come into contact with Yun Qiuchen many times. Although they were not close friends, he had to admit that she was a smart woman with all-round skills. Her appearance, family background, temperament and talent were all superior. Of course, she was more scheming than the average woman and had greater ambitions than the average woman.
The Empress Dowager had stated that she would send someone to attend Yanbei's Thousand Gold Banquet. The Yanbei Palace had no reason to stop it, and the Empress Dowager hadn't given them the opportunity to refuse. She had already begun selecting outstanding ladies from prominent families in the capital. This year's Thousand Gold Banquet was in May, and the ladies chosen by the Empress Dowager would depart from Kyoto by April at the latest, traveling north along the now-thawed waterways. It was already February.
Regardless of the Queen Mother's motive for interfering in Yanbei's Thousand Gold Banquet, the banquet became a major event in Yanbei that year, and the Yun family's reputation in Yanbei rose to a new level. Many young ladies who originally did not qualify for the banquet were looking for opportunities and various channels to participate.
Everyone has a competitive spirit, and the idea of these girls is very simple, that is, they want to outdo the women sent by the Queen Mother. The Thousand Gold Banquet of Yanbei has always been a stage for the ladies of Yanbei to show themselves. The girls from Kyoto are simply provoking all the ladies of Yanbei.
However, because the Empress Dowager was planning to intervene, invitations to this year's Thousand Gold Banquet were harder to come by than in previous years. Because the previous Thousand Gold Banquet hadn't been held, some eligible young ladies from prominent families hadn't had the chance to attend and were waiting for this one to make an appearance.
So the Yun family finally stated that in addition to only sending two invitations to each family, ladies who already had engagements and were between the ages of twelve and fifteen were not included in the invitation list.
After knowing this, Ren Yaoqi became even calmer. She really didn't want to get involved in this mess.
Unfortunately, things don't always go as one wishes. There are some things that she can't escape even if she doesn't want to. Ren Yaoqi was one of the first ladies to receive the invitation from the Yun family.

Please do not subscribe until the author has finished revising Chapter 414. Thank you very much! I will stay up late to revise the article, so please don't wait for more updates. Get some sleep and come back tomorrow morning. Please be patient and be careful with candles.
Any overdue updates for the month will be made up before the last day of the month (the author will take a vacation at the end of the month depending on the overdue updates)
***
Regarding the book review section, I hope everyone can speak rationally. It doesn't matter if you scold the author. The author is too busy, the updates are bad, and the character is also bad. This is obvious to all, and there is really no excuse. So the author deserves to be scolded, let everyone have fun ╮ (╯_╰) ╭
I hope other authors won't be implicated. Writing a book with empathy isn't easy; every author who perseveres is a broken-winged angel. Everyone has different tastes; you might like radishes, I might like cabbage. This isn't a reason to attack other authors in my book review section; it truly doesn't give the author pleasure!
(If you really want to attack, please move to another book review section so I don’t see it! Are you guys bullying me or bullying me or bullying me?!!!!)
Finally, (seriously!) Please don't say bad things about other works or authors in the Dimou review section. Doing so will delay the author's relationship with gay friends and disrupt their relationship harmony. Have you ever thought about what would happen if you were scolding the author's sweetheart? Thank you for your understanding!
P.S.: Seeing this followed by a bunch of nonsense, but the word count for this chapter is only a little over 4,000, you might suspect the author is lying about the word count. Just to clarify, that's the original word count before revisions. After removing the nonsense, the actual word count for this chapter is no less than 4,000. (To be continued...) This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
