Chapter 59 60 Lotus Appreciation Banquet, Breaking off the Engagement

The Empress invited the family members of officials of fifth rank and above to enter the palace to enjoy the lotus, and the Marquis of Wu'an naturally also got a post.

Compared with others' posts, Lin Jianyue's post was personally sent by the eunuch next to the queen, which shows her importance.

In the past, Lin Jianyue felt that this was the Queen's favor, and increasingly she felt that she had to do everything well and not let down the Queen's kindness.But now Lin Jianyue held the post in her hand and felt that her interest was waning.

The queen was only kind to her because she held half of Chengjiabao's wealth in her hands. When she was no longer useful, she would push it away like rags.

The queen is like this, and the prince is like this too.

While the rich ladies of the imperial city were urgently preparing to dress up, Lin Jianyue personally went to the princess mansion.

Only this time, Lin Jianyue rode in a low-key carriage, wearing a veil and quietly delivered a greeting card to the princess mansion.

Soon, the carriage left from the princess mansion.

Princess Lin'an looked at her daughter beside her who was still looking at her toes outside the house, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Qingmiao likes Miss Lin very much?"

Princess Lin'an is now very grateful and fond of Lin Jianyue, especially since her daughter met Lin Jianyue. Although she still doesn't leave the house all day long, she is at least willing to eat. Today she learned that Lin Jianyue came over, and even He would be by his side to entertain Lin Jianyue, which made Princess Lin'an particularly happy to see her.

"Yueyue is wise and brave, and I always feel safe when I stay with her!" Shen Qingmiao said softly, leaning next to her mother.

Princess Lin'an thought of what Lin Jianyue had done, especially the request Lin Jianyue made just now. She was shocked but felt that it was natural at the same time.

How could such a beautiful girl be worthy of someone like the prince?

"Mother, I want to go to the lotus appreciation feast too!" Shen Qingmiao suddenly raised her thin face, her eyes firm.

"My child, are you sure you want to attend the lotus appreciation banquet?" Princess Lin'an asked in surprise, but more worried, fearing that her daughter would meet Yang Bing at the banquet.

"What Yueyue did was extremely dangerous. She risked her life for me, and I want to do something for her!" Shen Qingmiao said, begging, "Mom, just promise me, I promise nothing will happen!"

Princess Lin'an thought about it and nodded. She naturally hoped that her daughter could get out of the house.

"Miss Lin is our benefactor, so we should naturally help her!" Princess Lin'an thought deeply, and had already begun to consider telling her consort and son about this matter.

Lin Jianyue had no idea that her request to Princess Lin'an would be taken so seriously, nor did she know that Shen Qingmiao was willing to go to the palace to help her.

After everything was taken care of, the lotus appreciation feast came quietly.

Early on, carriages were parked at the gates of the official residences in Qingyang City. Everyone got up early to dress up and prepare to enter the palace, and Wu'an Marquis Mansion was no exception.

Mrs. Wang had held her daughter's hand and waited at the gate of the Houfu early. When she saw the eye-catching luxurious carriage parked at the gate of the Houfu, Wang gently patted the back of her daughter's hand to calm her down.

After a long time, Lin Jianyue came late.

The moment she saw Lin Jianyue, Lin Yuqing suddenly felt that the clothes and makeup she had prepared for several days seemed so ordinary now.

This face made Lin Yuqing envious and wanted to destroy it at the same time.

"Yueyue, hurry up and get on the carriage! Don't waste time!" Wang's face was still full of kindness. She saw with her own eyes that Lin Jianyue didn't even salute before getting on the carriage, and then she took her daughter and got into another carriage. . "Mother, look at how she looks, does she ever take you seriously?" Lin Yuqing muttered in dissatisfaction on the carriage.

Mrs. Wang held the handkerchief and pressed her eyebrows, adjusting her daughter's dress, "The more arrogant she is, the better. Let everyone in the imperial city see how arrogant she is. But don't show off for the moment. Only if she, Lin Jianyue, is well now, will it be possible for you and the prince to be together in the future!"

Mrs. Wang was also feeling aggrieved during this time. The expenses of Nuo Da's Marquis were huge, and it was easy to change from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to change from extravagant to frugal. On several occasions, Wang had to use her own money to subsidize it.

Lin Yuqing naturally understood her mother's words. At this moment, she couldn't help pulling on her mother's veil and frowning, "I heard that during this lotus appreciation banquet, the empress will grant a marriage to Lin Jianyue and the prince!"

Speaking of this, Lin Yuqing punched the car wall angrily.

Wang also heard this, as if this rumor came from Jian Yue Pavilion, Wang naturally had no doubts. After all, the prince and Lin Jian Yue were already old, and it was only a matter of time before they got married.

"This is a matter of time, Yuqing, you have to remember, don't rush into anything!" Mrs. Wang repeatedly warned her, but she didn't see the reluctance in her daughter's eyes.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace, and a group of ladies from aristocratic families were examined. Lin Jianyuejianqian stepped out of the carriage, and many boudoir ladies and ladies from aristocratic families came over to chat.

Lin Jianyue smiled and chatted with everyone calmly. At this time, a figure walked next to Lin Jianyue, it was Shen Qingmiao with a pale face.

Seeing Shen Qingmiao, Lin Jianyue's expression showed a real smile.

"Qingmiao? Why are you here?" Lin Jianyue held the hands handed over by Shen Qingmiao, but did not see Princess Lin'an and Shen Weixun.

Shen Qingmiao dragged Lin Jianyue into the palace gate, leaving behind those who wanted to talk.

"My mother entered the palace first. I know you have something to do today, and I want to accompany you!" Shen Qingmiao said, and hurriedly explained, "Don't worry, I won't cause any trouble for you!"

Lin Jianyue looked at such innocent Shen Qingmiao, and her smile deepened.

"Of course that's good, I'm worried that no one can accompany me!" Lin Jianyue said with a smile. Compared to those girls from aristocratic families with different thoughts, she naturally preferred to get along with Shen Qingmiao, at least she didn't have to watch her all the time.

The two were about the same age. Although they had different personalities, they got along well with each other. In particular, Shen Qingmiao admired Lin Jianyue very much, and the two had a very good conversation along the way.

The lotus appreciation banquet was held by the lotus pond in the harem. The sun was fierce. Lin Jianyue and Shen Qingmiao took a quiet path. There were willow trees on both sides of the river bank here, so they would not burn their skin.

However, Lin Jianyue never expected to meet the fifth princess Yang Jin.

Next to Yang Jin was Zhou Yuan, and behind them were a group of maids. They didn't know what they were talking about. When they saw Lin Jianyue, their eyes paused.

Lin Jianyue stepped forward calmly and saluted Yang Jin slightly.

In fact, after Yang Jin's birthday party that day, she summoned Lin Jianyue into the palace several times, but Lin Jianyue knew that Yang Jin came with bad intentions, so she naturally pretended to be sick every time.

Fortunately, although Yang Jin hated Lin Jianyue, he couldn't do anything about Lin Jianyue, and then he stopped.

"Isn't this Miss Lin from Wu'an Marquis Mansion?" Yang Jin's bun swayed slightly. She approached Lin Jianyue and said in a bad tone, "I thought Miss Lin had some kind of illness and was ashamed of herself!"
