Ye Xiangxiang can't guarantee it now. After all, even the elder of Lingshu Palace can't do anything about it.

"We can only wait until we try it later, but the princess's disease will not be life-threatening, so you can rest assured."

An Feiyao said, "Thank you for your hard work today."

It was quite hard. Ye Xiangxiang missed the days in the countryside so much. It was so interesting for the family to sit on the kang and chat.

"It's okay, should I go back first?"

An Feiyao nodded, "Have a good rest and cheer up for the New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow."

"it is good."

Li Ruo followed, and the two entered the courtyard. An Feiyao sighed before leaving.

The next day when Ye Xiangxiang got up, Li Ruo came over holding new clothes.

"Girl, change into new clothes today."

Ye Xiangxiang was still thinking about wearing yesterday's clothes, which were obviously new.

"Aren't you wearing new clothes these days?"

Li Ruo said with a smile, "Today is the New Year's Eve banquet, so naturally I have to wear new clothes. Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so I will wear new clothes. Don't worry, I have already prepared all the girl's clothes. There is no shortage of clothes."

Ye Xiangxiang thought that An Feiyao should have arranged it in advance, and he was really thoughtful.

Today, she was wearing a pink short coat. Li Ruo chose suitable jewelry to match it and tied her hair into a bun to make her face look smaller.

"Oh, the girl is really pretty, with delicate facial features, and she looks completely different with a little dressing up."

I hadn't thought of it before, but after taking a closer look today, Li Ruo felt that Ye Xiangxiang looked very handsome, but he was still young and didn't have full bloom.

Ye Xiangxiang was embarrassed by her praise. After all, she was a girl and she still liked to hear people say she was good-looking.

After dressing up, Li Ruo took Ye Xiangxiang to the garden, "There are many guests here today, all officials and family members of the prince's territory. In the evening, there will be a banquet in the Peacock Tower. Starting from noon, the family members will listen to the opera in Yangliu Garden. In the afternoon The princess will be there too, it’s good that the girl stays with the princess all the time.”

Ye Xiangxiang nodded slightly and took note of Li Ruo's words.

As they approached the garden, the sound of singing and opera could be heard, but Ye Xiangxiang couldn't understand it.

I didn't have this hobby in my previous life. After I came here, I was focused on escaping from the famine. Now the Ye family's situation has not improved to this level.

Li Ruo led her around to the back of the stands.

After a while, there was a lot of noise outside the garden. Ye Xiangxiang heard the person in front say, "The princess is here."

Everyone squatted to greet her, and Ye Xiangxiang had to follow suit. After Princess Jin took her seat, everyone stood up.

Ye Xiangxiang took advantage of the situation and stood next to Princess Jin. Princess Jin was affectionate with her cousin and gently grabbed her hand.

Being so close, Ye Xiangxiang could smell her delicious fragrance. Princess Jin's whole body was really fragrant and soft.

"Everyone feel more at ease today. It's a rare occasion for such a lively event, so you don't need to be too restrained."

Everyone thanked in unison, "Thank you, Princess."

Ye Xiangxiang sat next to Princess Jin, and felt the sword-like gazes behind her.

I'm afraid that many people already hate her, and I don't know where the girl came from, but she is sitting next to the princess.

Ye Xiangxiang couldn't understand the play, and she didn't know whether Princess Jin was listening carefully, so she didn't dare to speak.

Unexpectedly, Princess Jin suddenly said softly, "How old are you this year?"

"Back to you, I'm fifteen years old."

Princess Jin nodded, "I'm already sixteen years old. I'm in my prime years. It's really a good time."

Ye Xiangxiang smiled slightly, and Princess Jin held her hand, patted it, and whispered, "On New Year's Eve, I should be gathering with my family, but I let you stay here with me. I really can't help you."

Ye Xiangxiang never expected that Princess Jin would say such things to her. The disparity in status was too great. Those in higher positions often only felt that it was appropriate to enjoy other people's efforts, and how could they be considerate of other people's hard work. But she said she was sorry so gently, Ye Xiangxiang's heart softened a lot, "No, I came here willingly."

Princess Jin smiled, "Is it because of Ayao?"

Ye Xiangxiang nodded lightly, but felt something was wrong, and explained, "Our family came here to escape famine. General An gave us a chance. I owed him, and this time I was almost framed. It was General An who saved me, so I should come because of both emotion and reason."

Princess Jin didn't speak, just smiled. After a while, she said, "Ayao doesn't help people very much."

Ye Xiangxiang looked at her and she stopped talking, so she had no choice but to follow the show.

This whole afternoon made Ye Xiangxiang feel sore from sitting, but the others seemed to enjoy watching it, and she couldn't get up and move around.

Ye Xiangxiang was really tired. Being a lady was not easy. She had to be careful even when changing her posture, otherwise others would notice her.

Finally, when the New Year's banquet was about to begin, Princess Jin stood up, and everyone followed her and went to the Peacock Tower together.

The table had been set up in the Peacock Tower and everyone was seated. Ye Xiangxiang was standing behind the princess and was about to sit down when he heard a shout from outside, "The prince is here."

Everyone stood up immediately to welcome Prince Jin.

There were a group of officials behind, all following them to the Peacock Tower, and each found a place to stand.

Prince Jin supported the princess and said gently, "Princess, please get up quickly."

He waved his hand and said, "Everyone, sit down and have a drink tonight. Let's celebrate the New Year happily."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Everyone sat down and started playing music.

Ye Xiangxiang also sat on the edge. She came with a mission tonight. Before coming here, she checked Princess Jin's pulse. There is no difference between now and yesterday.

No matter what happened at this banquet, she had to pay attention and never take it lightly.

An Feiyao was sitting not far away, and Ye Xiangxiang saw him.

Just as An Feiyao also looked over, Ye Xiangxiang quickly lowered his head.

"General An, I'd like to toast you."

An Feiyao turned around and saw that it was the prefect of Yongxing Prefecture.

He smiled, raised his glass, and said, "Done."

Magistrate Shen quickly drank the wine, returned to his seat, and couldn't help but look up.

Why does the person next to the princess look so much like Miss Ye?

No way, why is Miss Ye here?

He couldn't believe it, rubbed his eyes, and continued to read.

But that was where the princess was sitting, and he didn't dare to keep looking.

But there is also doubt in my heart, is that person Miss Ye?

The New Year's Eve banquet lasted until late at night. After the prince and princess left their seats, everyone also left one after another.

Ye Xiangxiang was highly focused all night. When the New Year's banquet ended, Princess Jin had no problems, just like when the banquet began.

Li Ruo came over to help her, "Are you tired, girl? You can go back and rest now."

Ye Xiangxiang nodded. He was really tired today. He was tired from sitting and staring all the time. He was exhausted both physically and mentally.

"Finally I can go back!"

Still working overtime, so tired
