Chapter 202 Prayer note
It seems that Prince Qing is not an easy prince!

The rest of the brocade boxes were also opened one by one, each one was a rare item, but what Zhuo Yibai got was a wordless sword manual that was rare but not practical, and what Shi Youle got was even more rare. It's strange, a cloak that is said to be invulnerable.

When it was the noble ladies' turn to open the gift boxes, everyone's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but gasp.

"My God, this is too expensive!"

All the rare objects are placed inside, and the rare and valuable jewelry is so rare that even the aristocratic families who are used to seeing treasures can't help but be speechless.

"His Royal Highness Prince Qing's banquet this time is really ingenious. He has prepared so many rare items. It's really impressive!"

"Haha, these rare items are nothing more than a drop in the bucket for a prince like him. Your Highness's real goal is those four noble ladies, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense, what kind of woman has never seen a man like His Highness, why would he use gifts to curry favor?"

"But not long after he sat down, I looked carefully at the shape of his mouth, and I clearly saw the names of his four girlfriends, Mo Xueyuan, Cheng Yuyan, Ye Zhaoyan, and Ning Miaoxuan, the head of the Jiang family. There is one person that His Highness likes!"

"Isn't it?"

When everyone was discussing, Jiang Tianyou immediately understood with King Qing's inadvertent wink, "His Royal Highness gave this item to the four noble ladies to express his best wishes to the four of them, and hoped that they would be able to enjoy the banquet in Qiongshu." We must meet a good match. The most outstanding young men in Jindu will be here for this banquet, and I ask all the noble ladies not to miss this opportunity!"

All the noble ladies suddenly realized when they heard the words, they were envious and jealous of these four people in their hearts, and they couldn't help but secretly scolded them for having such a good opportunity.

No matter how His Royal Highness Qing said, it is obviously not enough. As long as these four noble ladies are interested in the noble family present, there will be no accidents.

This honor is unique, rare and unusual.

Ye Zhaoyan looked at the brocade box delivered to him, without much surprise.

Jiang Tianyou noticed the gazes of the four people, and said with a smile, "Besides, His Royal Highness Prince Qing has something to give to you all."

His tone was extremely proud, but Ye Zhaoyan heard a rare trace of caution, which made her raise her head involuntarily, just in time to see King Qing's mouth slightly curved beside him.

"There is a signature in each brocade box. Ladies and gentlemen, please write down the name of the son you admire the most at this banquet on the signature. If you already have a sweetheart, just write the name of your sweetheart. After finishing writing, Yu Ying Auntie signed the letter and took it to the palace's marriage tree to pray for blessings, and bless the four noble daughters and the person they love to get their wishes as soon as possible." Jiang Tianyou announced loudly.

The whole audience was in an uproar for a while. This kind of gift is rare and noble. There are many blessing sachets hanging under the Liangyuan tree in the palace, but most of them are descendants of the royal family. back.

However, what if this intention is written on paper and known to others?

Jiang Tianyou seemed to know everyone's scruples, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, you can rest assured that this note will be messed up if you put it in the bottle face to face. If you are still worried, you can write in an uncommon handwriting."

After hearing this, all the noble ladies finally felt relieved, and immediately got up and went to the pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

Ye Zhaoyan raised his eyes and glanced at King Qing who was sitting in the main seat, seeing the determined expression on his face, he felt a little worried. He knew that King Qing would definitely make a move this time, but he didn't want to know where he would start.

The things in this kit will eventually be passed by King Qing.

However, she does know several kinds of handwriting, one of which she wrote casually out of boredom, and even her personal maid has never seen it.

She thought about it, but still felt that it was not appropriate, so she pretended to take the wrong ink, went to the side to wash the pen, and wanted to take a peek at it.

Mo Xueyuan stood in the first position, so she couldn't see clearly because she was a little far away.

On the side, Cheng Yuyan and Ning Miaoxuan's signatures could be glimpsed. Ye Zhaoyan saw Ning Miaoxuan writing the "day" strokes, a shadow cast in front of his eyes, and Aunt Ying's figure had come to him, "Miss Ye, what's the date?" Let those maidservants help you with trivial matters, if you accidentally dirty the blessing signature, it will not be beautiful."

"Thank you, Aunt Ying." Ye Zhaoyan felt bad in his heart, but his face was still gentle.

"Miss Ye is polite."

Ye Zhaoyan had no choice but to give up this method, trying to recall the previous performance process in his mind, speculating on Mo Xueyuan's choice in his heart, and a thought came to his mind.

If she guessed correctly, she should choose that person.

But in this way, what would happen if they both wrote the same name?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help raising her eyes to quietly glance at Zhuo Yibai who was not far away, only to see that his eyes were fixed on the brocade box in his hand, and he looked extremely focused.

As if aware that someone was looking at him, he raised his head. Although he was looking in Ye Zhaoyan's direction, it was not Ye Zhaoyan whose eyes met him. He was slightly taken aback, a little bit at a loss.

Following his line of sight was Mo Xueyuan with a smile on her face.

Ye Zhaoyan's heart sank, and he quickly lowered his head, his face pale.

"Miss Ye is in trouble, why don't you write?" A maid came to Ye Zhaoyan's side and reminded her.

Only then did she realize that the other three had finished writing, and everyone's eyes were on her.

Ye Zhaoyan suppressed the panic in his heart and wrote three words on the paper.

That's all for now.

"It's finished." She replied softly, her heart was beating like thunder, her palms were clenched into fists, and a dense layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

The maid nodded slightly, and took away the folded signature from her hand.

Ye Zhaoyan was still immersed in panic, staring blankly at the maid's back going away, but suddenly caught a glimpse of a little abnormality in her movements.

She was quietly touching her waist with one hand facing everyone. Ye Zhaoyan's mind flashed, and she chased after her, just in time to see the maid's hand that went to put the signature in the bottle, and was still tightly grasping the bottle mouth, as if pinching something.

Just as she was catching up and wanted to call her to check, Jiang Tianyou stopped her, smiling meaningfully, "Could Miss Ye want to see someone else's signature?"

"Master Jiang misunderstood Zhaoyan." Seeing the silence around, Ye Zhaoyan looked at herself, and then regained her composure. She had already confirmed that there was something wrong with the maid, "I just saw that the bottle was not covered, and I was worried that the signature would fall off. That's all."

"Oh? Is that so? Miss Ye is really considerate." Jiang Tianyou smiled brightly, seeing that Ye Zhaoyan didn't chase after him, he felt relieved.

Ye Zhaoyan returned to his seat, but he followed the maid closely from the corner of his eyes. The episode just now made the maid guarded and stopped her small movements suddenly.

After a while, Aunt Ying brought over a tray containing kits.

The maid immediately went to Aunt Ying, wanting to hand over the bottle in her hand.

At this time, her restless hand began to move again.

　Tomorrow is to deal with King Qing's conspiracy and transition. Some readers have reported that the plot is too slow, and the progress will be as fast as possible after that, but rest assured that the important parts will not be mentioned in one go.
