Chapter 36 Eating melons and eating them at home



With the Crown Princess's final appearance, after everyone had paid their respects, the banquet officially began.

Everyone was having lunch and watching the performance. At first, everything seemed harmonious. Ye Han and the Crown Princess sat next to each other and chatted casually.

"Imperial sister-in-law, I have received your gift. You are so kind to give me such a valuable gift."

"The fruits you sent are worth it. We are benefiting from you." The Crown Princess said jokingly.

. . . . . .

Just when Ye Han was bored, he suddenly heard a conversation. Ye Han's eyes lit up immediately, "Is there something?"

Ye Han quietly sat up straight and pretended to be calm as he picked up the tea. He looked nonchalant but in fact his ears were perked up.

"Mrs. Zhang, congratulations! I heard your family has a new young master. Master Zhang is truly in good health."

Seeing that Madam Zhang's expression remained unchanged, Ye Han said in a normal tone, "Yes, I'll treat you to a drink when the baby is one month old. By the way, I heard that the young master has been enjoying opera lately and has become very close to a young actor. It just so happens that we are planning to invite an opera troupe for the full moon banquet. The young master should be quite knowledgeable about this. I'll trouble Madam Li to introduce them to you."

Sure enough, Mrs. Li's expression became tense when she heard this. Ye Han knew from Mrs. Li's expression that the melon was not small and was definitely ripe.

It was definitely not as simple as Madam Zhang's concubine giving birth to a child. After all, if it was just a matter in the harem, Madam Li, who was in her thirties and almost forty, would not have changed her expression on this occasion.

Combined with what Mrs. Zhang said, Ye Han's knowledgeable brain immediately pieced together the general situation.

[Wow, is this the "love story between a wealthy nobleman and a young opera actor"?] Ye Han instantly became excited when he thought of this person, and he exclaimed in his heart, "I've hit it, I've hit it, and I've already created an 80,000-word essay in my mind..."

No, I have to ask Zhihua what happened in the past month and whether she missed anything.

In one sentence, "What about the process? I want the process." As a half-rotten girl in modern times, Ye Han is much more interested in this kind of melon than the jealousy in the harem.

But for the Dai Viet Dynasty or for this continent, this kind of thing seems to not exist. It is not taboo, nor is it open-minded. It seems that few people here know that this is possible.

Except for a few who heard about it and showed an expression of watching a show, those who didn't know in advance were all confused when they heard Mrs. Zhang's words. They obviously didn't understand what Mrs. Zhang meant by this sentence.

Of course, no matter how rich Ye Han's inner drama is, it does not affect her outward appearance of dignity and propriety.

The progress was not even halfway through, and Ye Han listened to the gossips of the ladies and young ladies who disliked each other, and the back-and-forth between them.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, "Oh my, oh my, this is so wonderful, it's really wonderful."

At this moment, Ye Han was like a badger that fell into a melon field, eating the melon happily until

"I have always heard of Princess Rui's talent and have admired her for a long time. I wonder if I would have the honor to learn from her?"

Ye Han looked at the girl in front of him who was wearing goose yellow clothes. Although it was not visible on his face, the provocation in his eyes could not be hidden.

"I wonder who you are?" Ye Han looked at the girl in front of him with a question mark on his face. Beauty, I haven't offended you, right?

The yellow-dressed woman almost couldn't hold back her smile. "Princess, you are so forgetful. I am the daughter of the Right Prime Minister. We met at the palace banquet."

"So you are Lord Ou's daughter. Look at my eyes. Is Miss Ou more beautiful? I didn't recognize her at first." Ye Han pretended to look at her carefully for a while, and praised her with a smile.

Well, actually, I really didn't know her. In the circle of noble ladies in Beijing, Ye Han was considered a recluse. Even when she had to attend an event, apart from a few old acquaintances, the others were just familiar faces.

The woman in yellow was stunned when she heard Ye Han’s words. She came to provoke her, so how could she respond?

Ye Han didn't know that this sentence of hers would not work for her.

"Princess, could you please give me a chance?" Miss Ou continued to ask without giving up.

The commotion here also attracted the attention of others. Everyone present was smart and immediately understood what was going on.

Some people were worried about Ye Han, but most of them were just there to watch the fun.

Ye Han calmly glanced at the expressions of the people around him, sighed helplessly, and thought to himself, "I thought I was a wild animal running around in the melon field, but after all this trouble, I'm also part of the melon field."

Although I don't know why this Miss Ou is so mean to me, but now that I've said this...

"Miss Ou knows that rumors are not 100% accurate. Besides, when it comes to talent and reputation, every young lady present is well-known for her talent, especially Miss Ou herself, who is known as the most talented woman in the capital. This princess will not embarrass herself."

That’s right, even after saying this, Ye Han still managed to fight back with ease.

Miss Ou clenched and unclenched her hands hidden in her sleeves. After a moment, she slowly said, "Your Highness is right. I will not disturb you any longer."

"It's not really a bother. I have to thank Miss Ou for her esteem. I wish Miss Ou a happy time." Ye Han's face remained smiling, appearing modest and generous.

Miss Ou looked at Ye Han's smiling face and almost bit her back teeth off, but there was nothing she could do. After talking for a long time, the other person didn't get angry or respond. He smiled friendly throughout and praised her. What could she do?

My fists hit the cotton. I felt powerless.

After Ye Han watched the person leave, he turned around and saw the Crown Princess's playful expression. He leaned closer and asked, "What's going on?"

"I like Prince Rui." The Crown Princess covered her lips and whispered to Ye Han.

Ye Han was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, "Is this indeed the legendary 'rival in love'?" It must be said that Ye Han's train of thought is somewhat different from others.

"What do you think?" asked the Crown Princess.

"I don't have any feelings. As the Prime Minister's legitimate daughter, how can she be a concubine?"

"Of course not."

"That's it, what else can I feel? It just feels a little weird to eat the melon on myself." Ye Han smiled casually.

"Eat melon?" The Crown Princess was puzzled by the new word.

"Just to watch the fun."

The Crown Princess nodded to show that she understood. "That's an interesting word."
