As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 27 Birthday Banquet in the East Palace
Xie Changyuan knew what happened in the inner house these past two days.

His mother was angry, and he knew it very well.

Therefore, he did not dare to get into trouble and get angry, so he stayed far away from the carriage.

Although he was very curious about what Yun Qi said to his sister when he went in that night.

I am also curious as to why my sister suddenly changed and targeted the second roommate.

I am even more curious whether my sister is really like Yun Qi, who kisses, bites and likes Yun Qi.

But with so much curiosity, it was really impossible to be curious in the face of my mother's anger.

He rode his horse to a safe area and smiled at Xie Changan: "When we arrive at the East Palace later, you stay with your mother and take care of her and your sister."

He had to find an opportunity to escape, and he couldn't let his mother catch him and scold him.

That would be embarrassing.

Xie Changan is the youngest among the boys in the Xie family. He is gentle and simple. He always listens to his brothers and sisters. He nodded: "Okay."

In the carriage, Mr. Yu's eyes were like knives scratching on Xie Changyuan's back. He stared for a long time before he lowered the curtain and said, "This little bastard!"

"Okay, okay!" Xie Zhaozhao hurriedly advised, "We are almost at the East Palace. Calm down, we have to wait until we get back to talk about anything."

"Ah."

Yu took a deep breath and held Xie Zhaozhao's hand, her mood suddenly became complicated again.

I don’t know if Yun Qi will go to the East Palace today?
Everyone in Beijing knew that he liked Xie Zhaozhao.

In the past few years, he made things difficult for Chu Nanxuan for Xie Zhaozhao, which also caused everyone in the capital to talk about Xie Zhaozhao.

Rumor has it that Xie Zhaozhao was openly in love with Chu Nanxuan and was secretly hanging on to Yun Qi, which is why Yun Qi was so crazy.

However, Yun Qi was of high status, and the Xie family could not do anything to him.

Later he went to the northwest and finally stopped for a few years.

But now, on the wedding day of Xie Zhaozhao and Chu Nanxuan, this demon king led his troops back to Beijing, snatched the bride on the street, and even set up a prison for Chu Nanxuan!

Well, Chu Nanxuan was imprisoned in the case.

But there are too many ignorant people in this world.

Some people will get involved in romantic ambiguity whenever something happens.

The marriage robbery and imprisonment, coupled with the previous entanglement between Yun Qi, Chu Nanxuan and Xie Zhaozhao...

Mrs. Yu was really worried. When she arrived at the East Palace later, those meddlesome people would look around and talk randomly.

In the past, Zhao Zhao hated others talking about these things, but now——

Looking at Xie Zhaozhao's excessively quiet face, Yu was really worried.

But soon, she realized that her worries were unnecessary.

The carriage arrived in front of the East Palace Gate.

After the mother and daughter got out of the car, as she expected, they immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

Most of those looks were a bit watchful, and some were blatantly mocking.

Yu's face turned cold and stared back mercilessly.

As the victim, Xie Zhaozhao was calm and indifferent, as if he had no feeling at all.

Realizing that Yu was so angry that her eyebrows were about to stand up, Xie Zhaozhao patted her hand and said softly: "I told you to be less angry, why are you so angry? Calm down, calm down!"

Yu pursed her lips.

Xie Zhaozhao stretched out his hand to Yu's face and pointed his finger at the corner of Yu's lips: "Smile!"

Her eyes were like a clear and quiet spring water, docile and well-behaved, and she seemed helpless because Yu was so angry.

Yu laughed "Pfft" and said, "Take your hands away, there are no rules at all!" "Okay!"

Xie Zhaozhao put down his hand and held Yu's hand instead, "Let's go in."

The mother and daughter followed the visitor to the inner garden of the East Palace, where there were already many noble women.

The young noble ladies gathered in groups in twos and threes, talking and chatting. Most of the ladies were talking to the crown princess in the flower pavilion not far away.

As soon as Xie Zhaozhao and Yu's mother and daughter appeared, the whole garden seemed to be silent for a moment.

The noble ladies all stared at the mother and daughter.

King Kaiping was born in a rough place in Zhennan.

Although Yu is the only daughter of King Kaiping, she has never been liked by the women of centuries-old clans in the aristocratic circle.

Usually when attending banquets, Yu is also the one who is isolated.

As for Xie Zhaozhao, her maternal grandfather's family was reckless and without any background, and her father Liang Guogong Xie Wei was also a reckless man. Like the Yu family, he was not welcomed by the aristocratic circle.

In addition, Xie Zhaozhao's entanglement with Chu Nanxuan and Yun Qi made these self-proclaimed noble ladies look down upon.

Yu was comforted by Xie Zhaozhao earlier.

But now looking at these contemptuous looks, I feel an unknown fire in my heart.

The mother and daughter were led to the Huating Pavilion to meet the Crown Princess.

The Crown Princess greeted her warmly, holding Yu's hand and smiling gently: "Mrs. Liang Guoguo is here. Please sit down quickly. Zhao Zhao should also sit down. I've left a place for you."

There are indeed two empty spaces under the Crown Princess's left hand.

Xie Wei held a high position and was highly regarded by Emperor Xuanwu.

Therefore, even if these people didn't want to see her anymore, they still had to watch Yu's mother and daughter sit on the top.

"It's the prince's birthday. Mrs. Liang Guogong is so late. Everyone who knows knows that you are a noble person and busy with things. Those who don't know think that you came so late on purpose to take advantage of Duke Liang to gain face in front of the Holy Emperor."

Opposite Mr. Yu, there was a lady with a long and thin face, covering her mouth with a fan, and said something like this in a sinister manner.

Yu's face darkened, "You——"

"If Zhaozhao remembers correctly, are you the eldest lady of Jiangning Houfu?" Xie Zhaozhao grabbed Yu's hand and said with a soft smile: "Excuse me, madam, has the birthday banquet of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince begun?"

"No."

"If not, then how can you say that mother and I arrived late?"

Mrs. Jiangninghou sneered in her eyes: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unparalleled in dignity. Naturally, I have to come early to congratulate him on his birthday in order to show my respect for His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Everyone arrived half an hour ago, who came as late as you Xie Jia?"

"According to Madam, we came too late because we don't respect the prince."

Xie Zhaozhao said softly: "You all came early because you respect the prince... This is the first time I have heard that respecting a person depends on whether you are early to pay him a birthday."

"Respect turns out to be a matter of time. It is something you say on your lips, not in your heart."

"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a lot of things to do. When you come to the East Palace, you probably haven't had the chance to wish the Crown Prince a birthday. You've just been chatting here. Is chatting a sign of respect?"

Everyone's face changed slightly.

Mrs. Jiang Ninghou said coldly: "You should hurry up and come here. If it's late, it's too late. You're still talking cleverly here!"

Xie Zhaozhao ignored Mrs. Jiang Ninghou, only turned to the Crown Princess and said with a smile: "Crown Princess, mother and I should not be late, right?"

"Of course, it's still a while before the birthday party starts."

The Crown Princess smiled gently, then turned to Mrs. Jiang Ninghou and said, "Zhao Zhao is right. Respecting His Highness the Crown Prince should be done in the heart, not based on whether it is early or late to pay homage to his birthday."

Madam Jiangninghou laughed stiffly, "That's what the Crown Princess said."
