When An Jinyan and Ye Yaqin heard such discussions, they looked at each other and remained silent. These were not what they said. Su Jingyao had behaved inappropriately and deserved to be questioned.
The young master in green came forward, bowed slightly, and said, "Miss Su, a woman's reputation is very important. It is normal for Miss Ye and Miss An to have doubts in this regard. I think other young masters are also suspicious of the frequency of your leaving the house. It would be best if you could explain it clearly."
Su Jingyao didn't have the heart to explain to them, and An Jinyan and Ye Yaqin were not wrong, she did go to meet her lover.
But of course I can't admit it.
Before Su Jingyao could say anything else, Su Jingxuan and Chu Yinxue walked over side by side.
Originally, Chu Yinxue had arrived a long time ago, but there were too many people in "Haitangchun", and Su Jingxuan wanted to find a place with fewer people to talk to Chu Yinxue, so he took her somewhere else.
"I wonder what everyone is talking about?"
Su Jingxuan frowned slightly, glanced at everyone present, and his voice was full of majesty.
When the gentlemen saw Miss Su's brother, Master Su, coming over, they stood up hurriedly, looking a little reserved.
They said in unison: "Mr. Su."
Su Jingxuan strode to Su Jingyao's side with big strides, while Chu Yinxue had a tense face, holding Su Jingyao's hand, leaning forward slightly, looking like she was trying her best to protect Su Jingyao.
Su Jingyao looked calm and didn't seem to take the gossip to heart.
She patted Chu Yinxue's hand gently, her eyes full of comfort, and said softly: "Brother, it's okay."
Then she said to everyone, "My mother held this banquet for me today because she wanted to choose a husband for me. The young men who came here today are all very outstanding, so it is difficult to choose. So I prepared a ball toss. Whoever can catch my ball will be my wife."
Su Jingyao spoke in a calm tone, her eyes swept over everyone calmly.
After saying that, she turned her head and looked at the young man in blue, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
"Master Wang, and other masters present here, if you feel that my behavior is inappropriate and my reputation is tarnished, you may leave on your own accord."
The gentlemen who were just discussing Miss Su's reputation heatedly were now like ducks with their necks strangled, and they were suddenly silent.
The young men here said that there were not many who could match Miss Su's family background. If she had a stain on her, then naturally there would be fewer competitors, so they started discussing it.
Now that I heard that Miss Su was going to throw the bouquet, didn't that mean everyone had the same chance?
They looked at each other in silence, and no one chose to leave.
After all, if I could marry Miss Su in this life, it would mean I have taken one step towards a successful future.
Everyone knows that Shangshu Ling Su is in charge of the promotion and transfer of all officials.
Su Jingyao turned and walked towards Zuitang Tower of "Haitangchun", with the corners of her mouth slightly twitching, outlining a meaningful smile.
It’s no wonder that Su Jingyao likes power. She is already the legitimate daughter of the Su family, so there is naturally no reason for her to be compatible with those below her.
Jun Zechen did not come early, which was also Su Jingyao's arrangement, because she wanted to know what backup plan Ye Yaqin had. Unexpectedly, there was An Jinyan as a helper.
The reason why she wanted to choose her husband through the form of hydrangea was that she didn't want everyone to guess that she and Jun Zechen were secretly together.
When Su Jingyao went up to the second floor, she held the railing with both hands, with a graceful posture, looking down at the dozen or so gentlemen standing below.
Those young men were all rubbing their hands, eager to try, their eyes full of anticipation and eagerness.
The young ladies, all with smiles on their faces, stood on both sides and watched for fun, whispering to each other.
Su Jingyao looked past the crowd and towards the door of Haitangchun.
Jun Zechen, dressed in a black and gold python robe, walked in with an upright posture.
Their eyes met instantly, and at that moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.
Su Jingyao's eyes curved into crescents, the corners of her mouth turned up, and her flower-like smile blossomed, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her.
With a light chuckle, she threw the hydrangea down from a tall building, and the hydrangea drew a graceful arc in the air.
All the young men stretched their necks, staring at the direction where the hydrangea fell, ready to scramble for it.
But Qi Yixu was good at martial arts, and when he heard that Miss Su was going to throw the bouquet, he became very excited and had a determined look on his face.
He secretly exerted his strength, bent his legs slightly, jumped up, stretched out his arms and reached forward, trying to grab the hydrangea.
Jun Zechen, who was standing behind all the young masters, had a determined look in his eyes. He took a few steps and stepped directly on the shoulders of the young masters.
His movements were clean and neat, like a nimble cheetah.
Finally, he kicked Qi Yixu away with all his might and caught the hydrangea steadily.
Qi Yixu was caught off guard and fell to the ground, his face covered in dirt. He shouted angrily, "Who is it?"
Jun Zechen turned his back to everyone when he caught the hydrangea and it fell to the ground. He stood straight like a towering mountain. He looked up and met Su Jingyao's gaze with raised eyebrows, as if to say: The hydrangea is mine, and you are also my path.
Su Jingyao got a satisfied result and smiled at him with raised eyebrows.
Jun Zechen turned around slowly, revealing his handsome face and majestic temperament.
All the gentlemen and ladies were stunned for a moment. Although some of them had never seen the prince, they could guess his identity from the dragon robe that symbolized his noble status.
Su Jingxuan was the first to react. He straightened his clothes, bowed respectfully, and said in a loud voice: "Your humble servant pays respect to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Afterwards, everyone seemed to have just woken up from their dream. They all reacted and bowed, shouting in unison: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Qi Yixu didn't dare to complain anymore. He could only suppress his anger, stand up, and salute Jun Zechen respectfully.
"Everyone, get up." Jun Zechen raised his hand slightly.
