Ni Yueshuang watched Ni Yueshan walk in, gritting her teeth in anger. "I'm the second daughter of the Ni family. Didn't my eldest sister just show me the invitation? What else do you want from me?"
The servant looked surprised: "Each person needs to show one invitation card..."
"You, I want to see your second prince! He must have missed a haircut!"
Although Ni Yueshan had already walked into the courtyard, she also heard Ni Yueshuang's voice clearly. What's the use of following her? She still couldn't get in, right?
In autumn, chrysanthemums are in full bloom, and many people gather together to appreciate the flowers. Women play tossing pots, men shoot arrows, and some people play go. It is the same poetry gathering, but the people in the second prince's mansion are much more relaxed.
They are all young talents, men and women, with unfamiliar faces, which is dazzling.
Ren Mei followed behind Ni Yueshan and said helplessly, "Miss, you don't have a good relationship with anyone. Now you want to find someone to sit down and talk with, but it seems you can't find the right person?"
Ni Yueshan found a random seat in the corner and sat down: "It's okay, I'm just here to make up the numbers."
After sitting down, Ni Yueshan was not idle. She picked up the fruit on the table and started eating. Many people had seen her appearance at the empress dowager's birthday banquet. Ni Yueshan did not wear a veil this time. Anyway, everyone knew that she was ugly.
"General Zou, I didn't expect you to come to the poetry gathering today. General Zou, are you here to practice archery?"
Ni Yueshan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zou Yangyao in a dark robe, his black hair tied up in a crown, his face firm and cold, as if he felt someone was watching him. He glanced at Ni Yueshan at the banquet.
Ni Yueshan had a core in her mouth and she looked away with disdain.
Zou Yangyao's eyes were cold and he also withdrew his gaze.
"General, I want to go to play pot tossing. Please accompany me."
Ni Yueshan had originally withdrawn her gaze, but when she heard the voice, she was a little surprised. She turned her head again and saw that it was Yang Wanyan?
Jing Yuchen really doesn't have good intentions. He gathered all these monsters together?
Ni Yueshan chuckled and found it amusing.
"Is Ni Yueshuang still blocked outside the door?"
Ren Mei was stunned: "Yes."
"Just say she's my maid and get her in."
Ren Mei didn't understand why Ni Yueshuang was allowed in. After hesitating for a moment, she took a step forward and walked out.
Ni Yueshuang wanted to enter the Second Prince's mansion, but the servant was stubborn and refused to let her in. Many people who met Ni Yueshuang greeted her and asked her why she didn't go in. Ni Yueshuang was too embarrassed to say that she didn't have an invitation.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and felt so embarrassed!
She glared at the servant. Ren Mei walked out and said to Ni Yueshuang, "The young lady has been waiting for you to come in and serve her. What are you doing standing here?"
Ni Yueshuang looked at Ren Mei in surprise. What?
Ren Mei reached out and pulled Ni Yueshuang: "Why don't you come in and serve me?"
Ni Yueshuang was displeased. How dare a slave pull her? Just as she was about to explode, Ren Mei whispered, "The Second Miss wants to enter the banquet. You'd better cooperate."
Ni Yueshuang finally calmed down: "He didn't let me serve the young lady..."
The servant looked at Ni Yueshuang in confusion. Wasn't she the master? How did she become a maid?
Ni Yueshuang felt she had never felt so embarrassed before. She wiped the sweat off her forehead with a handkerchief and shook off Ren Mei's hand: "Ni Yueshan, why did you help me?"
Ren Mei looked innocent: "I don't know either, why don't you go and ask yourself, Miss?"
Ni Yueshuang looked at Ren Mei like an idiot, then walked away.
Ni Yueshan was still sitting at the table when Ren Mei came over.
"Miss, the second young lady has come in. However, the second young lady has always had a bad relationship with you. I wonder what you are doing, Miss?"
Ni Yueshan curled the corners of his lips: "There are already enough monsters and demons. It will be more interesting if we add one more."
Ren Mei: “…”
The people present had been playing for a long time before Jing Yuchen appeared. Many people bowed respectfully to Jing Yuchen and said, "Greetings, Second Prince."
Ni Yueshan looked towards where Jing Yuchen was, but she didn't expect Jing Yuchen to walk towards her. Ni Yueshan looked at him steadily, a little wary.
Today, Jing Yuchen was wearing a long gown with a front opening, and his hair was tied up with a jade crown. He looked handsome, and when his narrow eyes fell on her, there was a hint of interest. He walked slowly towards her, with a wicked smile on his thin lips. He walked to Ni Yueshan and stopped.
"Thank you, Miss Ni, for coming to the poetry gathering."
"You helped me out at the palace banquet, so it's neither moral nor logical for me not to come."
"Are you thinking of repaying a favor?"
Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Yueshan with interest, with a wicked smile on his lips.
Ni Yueshan frowned. "Whatever the Second Prince thinks, a poetry gathering can help you make friends with similar interests, exchange ideas, and improve your poetic talent. Third, you can go out and relax and get some free food and drinks. It's not all about repaying a favor, right?"
Ni Yueshan's attitude was much colder than Jing Yuchen's, but Jing Yuchen didn't care at all about Ni Yueshan's cold expression. He looked at the group of people laughing and talking happily and said, "Miss Ni, don't miss this opportunity to make some friends."
"And that day, this prince didn't intend to help anyone, he just stood up and told the truth."
Then Jing Yuchen left with a smile on his face.
Ni Yueshan picked up the small wine glass in front of her, took a sip of the fruit wine, and told the truth?
Putting aside the question of whether he was there and witnessed everything, even if he was, there is no need for him to stand up and tell the truth, right?
He doesn't seem like a kind person!
Ren Mei stood behind Ni Yueshan and sighed, "Rumors say the Second Prince is the most charming and seductive, and many women can't compare to him in beauty. Seeing him today, he is truly breathtaking!"
Ni Yueshan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "Girl, you must be feeling amorous..."
Yang Wanyan pulled Zou Yangyao to stand beside her and watch her play the game of tossing pots. All the women were envious. Even though Yang Wanyan had a bad reputation, she was still very much loved by Zou Yangyao!
Ni Yueshuang came over at this time, "Sister Wanyan, long time no see."
When Yang Wanyan saw Ni Yueshuang, a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes: "So it's Miss Ni Er. I wonder what advice Miss Ni Er has for you?"
Although Yang Wanyan was not qualified to attend the palace banquet, she had heard that Yang Wanqing was betrayed by Ni Yueshuang at the banquet!
Yang Wanyan's attitude clearly showed that she was angry on behalf of Yang Wanqing.
Ni Yueshuang pretended not to notice her hostility. She slowly approached and said with a smile, "Ni Yueshan is here today, Aunt Yang. It's a rare opportunity to run into her."
"You've got General Zou backing you up, so you should at least make Ni Yueshan lose face! You can get angry with me later, and I'll apologize to you then!"
