"Please don't talk about my sister like that, otherwise she will be sad if she hears it." Ni Yueshuang looked at everyone with resentment, as if she was standing up for Ni Yueshan.
Everyone present felt extremely embarrassed, and someone whispered back, "It's just a piece of junk to begin with, and you don't allow people to say anything about it."
"That's right, that's right."
Ni Yueshan walked in front, and although his voice was not loud, he could still hear the words clearly.
It's not surprising at all that people are talking about me like this.
Most of the female members of the family were present, but a carriage stopped outside the eldest princess's residence.
The man who got out of the carriage was wearing a dark robe with a double-breasted front. He had tan skin, a strong facial feature, and deep, dark eyes. A servant came forward to greet him, "General Zou, the princess has been waiting for you for a long time."
Zou Yangyao was invited by the eldest princess and should have not refused, but the eldest princess had someone specifically remind her that there was a distinguished guest in the mansion, whose surname was Ni and who was the daughter of the prime minister.
Zou Yangyao and Ni Yueshan had a grudge against each other, but they had never met before. The eldest princess invited him, so he came.
The servant took Zou Yangyao to an elegant and unique courtyard, and saw two people sitting there from afar.
The two men were dressed in gorgeous clothes. One was dignified and elegant, and the other had an extraordinary handsome face and a dignified appearance.
The two of them sat together, and they looked somewhat similar, but their noble aura made people know that their status was unattainable.
Zou Yangyao stopped and saluted: "Greetings to the Princess and the Fourth Prince."
"General Zou, please stand up and sit down." Princess Jing Yu'e pointed to the jade stool next to her. She had a graceful temperament and a friendly look on her face.
Zou Yangyao stood still, "Princess, I wonder what you want me to do today?"
Zou Yangyao was obviously very distant. Jing Yu'e curled her lips and smiled, looking very charming.
"General Zou, there's no need to be so reserved. I'm here today because the daughter of the Prime Minister's family is staying here. I wonder what General Zou would like me to do?"
The second prince Jing Yuchen sent Yang Wanyan back to win him over, and Jing Yu'e now invited Ni Yueshan to win her over?
And from the tone of his voice, it seems that no matter what he says, Jing Yu'e will agree?
"If the princess doesn't treat the prime minister's daughter with courtesy at the banquet today, I'm afraid she won't be able to keep her composure. If she gets sick from the anger, that's not good."
Zou Yangyao's deep eyes flashed, his thin lips were slightly pursed, revealing a hint of coldness. He did not have any feelings for Ni Yueshan as a couple.
Jing Yu'e already understood Zou Yangyao's intentions. She still smiled gently and said, "The ladies of the noble families should have arrived by now. This princess is going to the banquet. Fourth brother, please make a cup of tea for General Zou!"
Then he waved his sleeves and left, surrounded by his servants.
The women had all taken their seats, waiting for Jing Yu'e to arrive. Amidst everyone's anticipation, Jing Yu'e walked slowly over. Her graceful and elegant temperament impressed everyone, and no one dared to look at her for a second longer.
"Meet the Princess."
Everyone saluted respectfully, the sound was clear and refreshing.
She looked straight ahead, with the corners of her lips slightly raised, revealing her graceful demeanor.
"Everyone, get up."
"Thank you, Princess."
Everyone thanked him in unison and sat down.
"You are so kind to come to my Princess's residence. It is really a great honor for me. If there is anything wrong with my hospitality, please forgive me."
Who wouldn't want to be associated with a royal relative like the eldest princess? She felt it was an honor to be here. Jing Yu'e was indeed being modest when she said this.
"We've all been looking forward to the Princess's poetry gathering. The Princess's mansion is unique, the servants are courteous, and the pastries at Qifangzhai are truly unique."
"And the famous homemade fruit wine at the Princess's residence is something most people won't be able to drink in their lifetime. The Princess is so kind to us, how could we possibly be inadequate in our hospitality?"
The woman who was speaking had a rosy face, wore a long pink dress, and her hair was dotted with flower stamens. She was beautiful but not delicate, gorgeous but not vulgar, and her voice was light and pleasant, which made people feel very good about her.
Seeing this, the other women naturally joined in the conversation.
"Usually poetry gatherings are held over tea, but the eldest princess entertained everyone with homemade fruit wine. This kind of thought is truly unique and ingenious, and it is surprising and surprising." Ni Yueshuang, who was sitting nearby, picked up the fruit wine in front of her and praised the eldest princess.
Today, she was wearing an orange-yellow slanted-collar long dress, and her black hair was tied up with a unique hairpin of the same color. She looked simple yet generous, noble and elegant, yet not too ostentatious. With her pretty face and sweet smile, she looked like a beauty of natural beauty no matter how you looked at her.
Ni Yueshan looked at everything in front of her quietly. She was just there to make up the numbers, to taste the fruit wine that others praised so much, to eat the cakes that others couldn't even buy, to see if it was just bragging or flattery.
After saying that, Ni Yueshuang raised her head and drank the wine in the glass in her hand.
The eldest princess admired his relaxed demeanor and said, "Okay, let's toast together and try this fruit wine."
Ni Yueshuang's initiative livened up the atmosphere and filled the room with laughter.
Ni Yueshan took a sip from behind her veil. It tasted sweet and not spicy, and it left a refreshing fragrance between her teeth. It felt very good and was indeed worthy of praise.
"I wonder who is that veiled woman at the banquet? Why is she wearing a veil and not taking it off?"
Ni Yueshan felt a little unhappy when she was mentioned, but she responded calmly: "Princess, I look a little scary, and I'm afraid of scaring the timid ones here, so I won't show up."
The pink-dressed woman smiled contemptuously and said, "I know this woman. She came from General Zou's mansion and is now back home."
When people heard the name of General Zou’s Mansion, who among those present didn’t know about it?
It was clearly a shameful matter of divorce, but he had to bring it to the Dali Temple. He relied on his status to think about returning to the general's mansion. How shameless!
Ni Yueshan knew that he would be ridiculed when he came here today, but how could a truly powerful person be the first to bear the brunt of it?
"This young lady seems to know a lot. Why don't you explain it clearly? Why did I leave the General's Mansion? Was it because I was jealous, or because I caused someone to have a miscarriage?"
This matter caused a lot of uproar. Basically everyone in the capital knew about it, as well as the result of the trial at the Dali Temple. She was not afraid of being brought up against her now, after all, a person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear.
The woman in pink really shut up. The result of the Dali Temple trial was that Ni Yueshan was innocent and was divorced because of Yang Wanyan's frame-up and Zou Yangyao's blindness.
So using this to criticize Ni Yueshan seems a bit too pale.
"Ahem, this Sister Wanqing was just telling the truth and didn't mean to mock you. Why are you being so extreme?"
Ni Yueshuang took the initiative to act as a peacemaker, and Ni Yueshan seemed a little harsh.
