Chapter 36
"Thanks to Yaoyao for saving me just now." Xia Chuying smiled and looked at Zuo Junyao, who returned her a smile even though she couldn't see it.
"No, it's also thanks to Prince Duan's timely appearance to uphold justice for us, otherwise, it's hard to guarantee what that unruly princess will do." Zuo Junyao said modestly.
What she said was also true. Just now, she was almost arrested by that savage princess as a witch, and her fiancé was also "credited".
"What?! You saw Lord Duan?!" Nie Yingqiu's eyes widened, and her eyebrows seemed to be raised.
She's so jealous!If she had known that Prince Duan would go, she would definitely not have left first!
"Yes! Is there any problem?" Xia Chuying was a little puzzled: why did she react so strongly?
She didn't know that her friend Nie Yingqiu had always had a strange feeling for Duan Wang Mo Jiuxiao.
Ever since Nie Yingqiu met Mo Jiuxiao who was not injured with her father a few years ago, she was attracted by his handsome appearance and strong masculinity.
In the future, as long as there is a chance to see him, she will rack her brains and think of ways, even if she just takes a look at him from a distance, she will be satisfied.
Although Mo Jiuxiao's almost perfect appearance was ruined three years ago because of the war with the enemy country, and her lower limbs were also damaged, she still likes him, and even rumors that he has become an inhumane man, she does not dislike him!
As long as she can be by his side, she is willing to do anything!
But she didn't expect that she missed an opportunity to get in close contact with him just now!
Damn it!
It's all Xia Chuying's fault!If she hadn't hurt Princess Qingyun's dog, how could she have walked away first!
Nie Yingqiu thought angrily.
Zuo Junyao naturally didn't miss the flash of anger in her eyes, and she didn't bother to explore the reason, anyway, it had nothing to do with her.
"It's nothing. I'm just curious about how King Duan would appear there." Nie Yingqiu realized her gaffe, and immediately adjusted herself, returning to her previous appearance.
Xia Chuying didn't suspect anything either, she raised her head and looked at the sky, took a deep breath and said, "No matter what, luckily there was no danger tonight. But I really want to thank Yaoyao! That Prince Rui is really Yes! They didn’t pay much attention to you! They even wanted to help Princess Qingyun arrest you! I was really scared to death at that time! I’m afraid that you will be hurt because of me.”
"Prince Rui and I don't see each other well. Even without you, he wouldn't treat me very well." Zuo Junyao smiled indifferently, and changed the subject: "We won't talk about this anymore. It doesn't matter depending on the weather." It's early, isn't it time for the banquet to start? Let's go back quickly!"
"Ah, yes! Dad must be looking for me!" Xia Chuying only now remembered that there was such a thing as a banquet, and hurriedly pulled the two of them back to the side of the female relatives.
At this time, a palace maid happened to come to lead the way and lead everyone to the garden where the banquet was held.
Zuo Junjin and Zuo Junyuan had also returned to Shen Rou's side, and when they saw Zuo Junyao coming back, they immediately questioned her.
"Eldest sister, where have you been?" They searched around but didn't see her just now.
Shen Rou didn't ask anything, but she said angrily: "Don't run around in the future. I almost delayed the time for the banquet." After speaking, she led her two daughters one step ahead and followed the crowd to the banquet venue .
Because Xia Chuying came with her father, she was not accompanied by other female relatives from the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of War, so she was still by Zuo Junyao's side.
"Yaoyao, who are they? Why did they treat you like that?" Xia Chuying asked with frowned eyebrows.
The attitude of the one old, two young, and three women was really arrogant, and it made people unable to feel liking when seeing them.
But Zuo Junyao didn't mind at all: "One is my father's stepmother, and the other two are my younger sisters. It's okay, I'm used to it." It's just that she doesn't bother to talk to them.
Xia Chuying took Zuo Junyao's arm again with her little hand, and whispered: "Yaoyao, we definitely can't sit together later. Can I go to the mansion to find you in the future?"
"Okay. You are welcome!" She happened to be missing an ancient guide to guide her around the capital of the Great Yan Dynasty!
Nie Yingqiu accompanied her mother and walked behind the two of them, watching them talking and laughing, her eyes seemed to spew fire.
This Zuo Junyao is really her unlucky star!Not only did he rob her of the opportunity to show off in front of King Duan, but she also robbed her friends whom she managed to get along with!
When she thought about it again, the corners of her mouth curled up again.
Fortunately, that Zuo Junyao is an ugly woman with no talent and no looks. Tonight at the palace banquet, she must seize every opportunity to show her outstanding self in front of King Duan, so that everyone can pay attention to her demeanor!
Even if she can't be the concubine of King Duan, even if she is just a side concubine or even a concubine, she is willing!
Nie Yingqiu deeply knows that according to her father's position, she can't expect to have any interaction with King Duan; she can only rely on her own efforts to win King Duan's appreciation, and then become his woman, then she can be logical Become the hostess of Prince Duan's Mansion!
Thinking of this, Nie Yingqiu clenched her hands under her clothes.
It all depends on tonight!
After walking for about two quarters of an hour, everyone walked through a long corridor before entering an open space, which was brightly lit, and dozens of tables, large and small, were placed on which were all kinds of fresh fruits, Snacks, delicacies and drinks.
According to the size of the official rank, the palace people led the officials and their families to the corresponding seats and sat down.
The officials greeted each other warmly and introduced their family members.
As the prime minister, Zuo Zhishan naturally attracted the attention of everyone, and there were many people around him, most of them brought their wives and children.
"Your prime minister is really lucky! Your wife is so gentle and virtuous, and all the ladies are more beautiful than flowers and deeper than the sea, especially the second lady, who is now a big girl!" The servant of the Ministry of Rituals boasted immediately. .
"Second Miss is charming and charming, and Third Miss is playful and cute, each with its own characteristics. After tonight, there will be many princes and dignitaries coming to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage, and the Prime Minister will be troubled after a while!" Doctor Yu Shi also agreed.
Several other officials also boasted about Zuo Junjin and Zuo Junyuan back and forth, but no one mentioned Zuo Junyao.
Zuo Zhishan and Shen Rou were naturally overjoyed when their daughter was praised by everyone, the former didn't have time to take care of his eldest daughter, he just smiled from ear to ear and thanked everyone for their absurd praise.
Suddenly a dissonant voice broke in.
"Master Prime Minister, I really thank you for helping my daughter just now, otherwise my daughter must have been arrested and punished by Princess Qingyun by now!"
Hearing this voice, everyone was stunned, Zuo Zhishan followed the voice, it turned out that Xia Minhang, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was sincerely thanking himself.
Yaoyao helped Miss Xia escape from the punishment of the princess?Zuo Zhishan frowned in confusion.
