"Your Highness, our banquet this time will have separate tables for men and women."
Gu Yunni raised her eyebrows. It was obvious that this woman had bad intentions.
Then let's see what she is going to do.
Before Sheng Mingyu got angry, Gu Yunni spoke with a smile.
"In that case, we will follow the master's arrangements." When Gu Yunni said this, she did not forget to wink at Sheng Mingyu.
Seeing her like this, Sheng Mingyu suppressed his anger, silently glared at Kou Mingxue, and turned to the so-called men's seat over there.
Seeing her being so sensible, Kou Mingxue was a little surprised, but she didn't make trouble in public. She gave Gu Yunni a perfunctory smile and said, "It's rare for the future Crown Prince's Consort to honor you. Please find a seat by yourself."
After saying that, Kou Mingxue left the place with her head held high, surrounded by her maids.
At this moment, she was dressed gorgeously, and when she walked forward, she was as eye-catching as a colorful peacock, but she was unaware of it.
Gu Yunni didn't care about so many things. In short, she didn't need to worry about it. Kou Mingxue's level was just like that. She would just be led by the nose.
Gu Yunni looked around and said that she was asked to find a seat, but in fact there was no seat for her at the entire banquet.
She sneered. Is that the trick?
If this is her method today, it is too low-level.
Gu Yunni found a seat at random and sat down.
Kou Mingxue, who had been keeping an eye on Gu Yunni, saw her sitting casually and immediately saw an opportunity to lash out. She covered her lips and stood up, "Oh, it seems the future Crown Prince's consort still doesn't know the rules. Miss Gu, the seat you're sitting in belongs to Miss Lin. Everyone has their own seat at the banquet. It seems that in addition to marrying you, His Highness the Crown Prince also needs to have the nanny teach you some good manners."
This paragraph is almost like saying that Gu Yunni is uncultured.
Gu Yunni was not angry, she just sat in her seat without moving.
The corners of her mouth curled up in a scornful arc. "I don't know the rules? I think the one who really doesn't know the rules is you, Miss Kou. Your people personally gave me the invitation, but there's no place for me at the banquet. If this gets out, guess what the censors will say about the Marquis of Changping?"
These were just intrigues among the girls, and when it came to the Marquis of Changping, Kou Mingxue suddenly panicked.
She immediately glared at the maid beside her and asked pretentiously, "What's going on? Why doesn't she have a seat? Didn't I ask you to make good arrangements?"
The maid beside her looked aggrieved, but under such circumstances, it was impossible for her to refute her own mistress.
The look in the young lady's eyes was terrifying. If she dared to say anything in reply today, she would be skinned alive after the banquet.
So, she immediately knelt down and said, "Miss, this is all my fault. I was probably too busy and made a mistake in the arrangements, so there is one less seat."
Seeing this, Kou Mingxue was satisfied.
She looked up at Gu Yunni and said, "Look at what happened. It was my maid's fault for neglecting it. I'm sorry, I'll arrange a seat for you right away."
Gu Yunni looked at her with a smile on her face as she directed and acted out her own play. She didn't want to expose her, nor did she give her a way out.
In short, as long as she doesn't cause trouble, I will be more content. However, it seems impossible now, so I can only deal with it as it comes.
Just because she didn't say anything didn't mean everyone present was a fool.
On the contrary, the representatives who came today are all the faces of the descendants of each family, and they are all very smart.
Everyone watched this farce, but only Li Zhiqing stood up from his seat. "Miss Kou, this isn't right. You misunderstood the Crown Prince's Consort earlier and humiliated her in public, and now it's resolved with just a simple oversight? I'm afraid you should apologize, right?"
This makes sense, and many people watching the show started talking about it.
Although Gu Yunni is just a commoner woman, she will soon become a beautiful woman because of Sheng Mingyu's love for her. Compared with Kou Mingxue, she is actually on par with him, and can even be said to be slightly better.
In addition, since Kou Mingxue was not in the right in this matter, more people came to speak up for her.
"Yes, it's reasonable for Dou to apologize."
"That's right. With so many people here today, it would still have some impact if we tell others about it."
Their words made Kou Mingxue's face turn black.
Who was he? How could he possibly apologize to Gu Yunni?
Kou Mingxue clenched her fists. It was impossible to make her give in to Gu Yunni!
But today's scene is so grand. Just as that young lady said, if he really doesn't apologize and the news gets out, where will the face of his Changping Marquis Mansion be?
It’s okay if she loses face, but if the Marquis’s Mansion is also disgraced, Marquis Changping will definitely not let her go.
Thinking about how hard she had worked to get to where she was today, Kou Mingxue couldn't let it all go to waste. The look she gave Gu Yunni became increasingly ugly.
If it weren't for her, how could I have faced such a situation?
Thinking of this, her eyes were filled with resentment.
Li Zhiqing didn't back down at all. "What's wrong, Miss Kou? Are you afraid to admit what you did? We're all watching. You've insulted the prince's fiancée. Do you want us to seek justice from the prince?"
Things have come to this point. If Kou Mingxue still refuses to apologize, I'm afraid everyone will know about it.
Thinking of this, Kou Mingxue could only look at Gu Yunni unwillingly and said reluctantly, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood."
Gu Yunni didn't expect that someone would speak up for her at today's banquet.
She turned her head to look at Li Zhiqing and gave him a friendly smile.
Li Zhiqing smiled back, and seeing that she had no seat, he reminded her, "Prince's Consort, why don't you sit next to me? My seat is spacious."
This is true. Due to Li Zhiqing's bold and carefree personality, few young ladies from aristocratic families are willing to associate with her, which leads to the young ladies around her staying away from her.
Her position was indeed the biggest among everyone present.
Gu Yunni smiled calmly, stood up and walked towards her, "Thank you very much, young lady."
After saying that, she stood up and walked to Li Zhiqing's side, nodding her chin gently, "May I know your name, young lady?"
Li Zhiqing smiled and gave his name.
Gu Yunni also said her name in a friendly manner. After the two introduced themselves to each other, they became acquaintances.
During the meal, the two of them were talking intimately, and no one cared about Kou Mingxue's expression at all.
But as someone who considers herself the protagonist of this banquet, how could Kou Mingxue miss the opportunity to shine?
After dinner, Kou Mingxue suggested that all the men and women go to appreciate the flowers together, which was not far from the pond.
