Chapter 386 Taking Wu Ya to the Palace Banquet

Before long, the second prince strode into the main courtyard.

Wu Ya's face instantly lit up with a big smile, "Your Highness, you are finally back."

"Your absence these few days seems very long."

The little maid next to her said playfully, "Second Prince, you don't know that these days, our Miss Wu Ya has been missing you so much that she can't eat or sleep at night."

Several little maids in the room covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

Wu Ya turned her head away, looking very shy: "Your Highness, don't listen to their nonsense!"

The second prince smiled sweetly and waved his hand at several maids, who immediately left with a wink.

"Xiao Ya, I've been in the army these days, and I've missed you day and night!" The second prince said, taking Wu Ya's hand and stroking it gently.

Wu Ya pulled the second prince to sit down, and considerately brought a bowl of iced plum soup.

"Your Highness, the weather is hot, drink a bowl of plum soup to cool down." As he said that, he also sat down.

The second prince obediently took the plum soup and drank it in big gulps.

Wu Ya took the opportunity to get close to the second prince and observed him carefully.

Then, she secretly gathered her energy, squinted her eyes, and moved her lips slightly.

Suddenly, her closed eyes moved.

This time, Wu Ya smiled with relief and opened her eyes.

Having not seen the Second Prince for a few days, she wanted to confirm whether the insect was still in his body. She was relieved when she sensed the insect just now.

At this time, the Second Prince had already drunk a bowl of sour plum soup.

"By the way, Wu Ya, there is a palace banquet tomorrow night. I need to go to the palace to attend in the afternoon. Please help me prepare a suitable robe in the morning."

Wu Ya nodded gently: "Okay."

Since she moved into the Second Prince's Mansion, she has been taking care of the Second Prince's food and clothing.

"Your Highness, what kind of palace banquet is tomorrow? Why is there another palace banquet?" Wu Ya pretended to be innocent.

The second prince said calmly: "Oh, didn't the Dai Viet delegation come a few days ago? There is a palace banquet specially prepared for them."

Wu Ya's eyes lit up: "In other words, the Dai Viet envoys will also participate?"

The second prince nodded: "Of course."

Wu Ya took the second prince's hand and said coquettishly: "Your Highness, can you take me with you to the palace banquet tomorrow?"

"I can dress up as a maid."

The second prince wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and under the handkerchief, the corners of his lips curled up with satisfaction.

Then, he pretended to be surprised and said:

"If you pretend to be a maid, you have to stand and wait the whole time. Not only will you not be able to eat the delicious food at the palace banquet, but you will also be exhausted."

"I can't bear to let my Xiaoya suffer like that."

"Besides, what's the good of a palace banquet? You wait a little longer. After we get married, you can legitimately participate in every palace banquet. Then I will let you sit with me in the name of the prince's consort."

Wu Ya said gently: "Your Highness, but I am very curious about what a palace banquet is like. I am also curious about what the Dai Viet people are like. I have never seen Dai Viet people in my life."

"Besides, I am not afraid of hardship. It's just standing for a few hours, that's nothing."

"Your Highness, don't forget that I grew up in the Northern Frontier. I have no problem riding a horse for a whole day, so why should I be afraid of standing for a few hours?"

The second prince looked at Wu Ya lovingly: "Okay! Okay! As you say!"

Wu Ya smiled shyly and trotted back to her room.

...

The next afternoon, one carriage after another arrived outside the palace. Before long, a long queue of carriages formed, stretching out for three or four miles.

Princes and ministers got off the carriages one after another with the help of servants and walked into the palace.

A gorgeous and exquisite carriage stopped, and a pretty maid opened the curtain and walked out. Then, she led a young man in a bright yellow dragon robe out of the carriage.

This master and servant were the second prince and Wu Ya.

The two were walking towards the palace gate when they happened to meet the prince who was also walking in.

The prince looked at Wu Ya, who was dressed as a maid, and joked, "Second brother, the maid you brought today is really beautiful! Second brother is so lucky!"

The second prince laughed, "Your Highness

, the prince is too kind!" The prince smiled evilly, "It's a pity, I don't have such good luck. There are not many beautiful maids in the mansion."

When the prince said this, he glanced at Wu Ya with ill intentions, with a look like a street playboy, "Why don't you give this maid to me!"

The second prince frowned, "Brother Prince, please be careful with your words and actions, don't make jokes!"

After saying that, the second prince pulled Wu Ya up and strode towards the palace gate.

Wu Ya lowered her head slightly and followed the second prince cautiously.

But then, a sly smile appeared on her face.

Several princes and ministers passing by were stunned by this scene.

Some gossipers stopped and whispered.

"When did the Crown Prince and the Second Prince become hostile to each other?"

"That's right! They were always friendly and respectful to each other before."

"Could it be because the Second Prince made military achievements? The relationship between the two brothers has become delicate?"

"What you said is possible! Before, the second brother was useless and the eldest brother was virtuous, so the two brothers naturally lived in peace. Now the second brother has made great military achievements and is famous, so the relationship between the eldest and the second brother is naturally tense."

Several people were discussing heatedly. At this time, Yan Wenjing came over and shouted coldly: "You are so bold! You dare to talk nonsense at the gate of the palace! Watch your head!"

Several people shut up embarrassedly.

In Shanglin Garden.

Although the time for the palace banquet has not yet arrived, the princes and ministers have already arrived.

Some sat down obediently and drank tea, while others gathered in twos and threes to chat.

The second prince sat in his seat, while Wu Ya stood behind him in an orderly manner.

There was a loud noise, and seven or eight people walked into the hall at the same time.

The second prince looked up and saw that they were envoys from Dai Viet.

Han Lie, the Great Prince, Bai Zhou, the captain of the guard, and four followers walked over in the costumes of Dai Viet.

The surroundings were all wearing Daxia costumes, and suddenly a group of people wearing foreign costumes seemed out of place and particularly conspicuous.

All the guests subconsciously stopped talking and turned their eyes to them.

Han Lie and his party were not at all nervous. They found a seat and sat down as if no one was around.

And the place where they sat was just opposite the second prince.

The second prince casually picked up the grapes on the table, peeled them carefully, and turned to pass them to Wu Ya behind him.

Wu Ya shyly bent her waist slightly and ate the grape.

This scene was seen by Han Lie and his group on the opposite side.

Han Lie's eyes immediately revealed a little bit of smugness that was not easy to detect.
