Chapter 194 The Palace Banquet Begins

The night is getting darker, and the bright lights of the palace banquet reflect the faces of every guest.

The ladies of the nobility were dressed in gorgeous clothes and carefully groomed, shining like bright stars in the palace.

They were sitting at the banquet, looking at the princes opposite from time to time, all revealing their admiration for the princes.

Several princes of the royal family also appeared in everyone's sight like stars holding the moon.

They were dressed in brocade robes and looked majestic, their brows revealing their innate nobility and elegance.

Every move they made attracted everyone's attention, as if the entire palace was shining brightly because of them.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair, his eyes burning like a torch, examining every guest present.

This palace banquet is of great significance, as it is to select suitable consorts for the adult princes.

He hoped to take this opportunity to find virtuous and virtuous partners for the princes, and jointly contribute to the prosperity and stability of the court.

As the banquet progressed, the atmosphere gradually heated up.

When it came time to showcase their talents, these ladies all showed their special skills.

The entire palace seemed to have turned into a gorgeous stage. The ladies came forward one after another, their faces filled with confident smiles and their eyes shining with anticipation.

The first person to appear was a young lady in a green dress. She gently plucked the strings of the piano, and the melodious sound of the piano flowed out, like a clear spring in a mountain stream, refreshing the heart and mind.

Her fingers danced on the strings, like an elf dancing, and every note was full of life.

Then, a girl in red danced gracefully, her dance was light and graceful, like a red butterfly shuttled among the flowers.

Her skirt fluttered as she danced, burning like fire, lighting up the entire palace.

There was also a young lady who took out a flute and played it gently.

The sound of the flute is melodious and profound, as if it can travel through time and space, taking people to a distant fairyland.

The sound of her flute is like a clear spring, washing people's hearts.

Each lady showed her own unique talents. Whether they sang, danced or played musical instruments, they all attracted people.

The emperor and his family members also watched with great interest. They sometimes nodded in praise, sometimes communicated in low voices, as if they were looking for the princes' favorite partners.

Finally, a lady dressed in white walked to the center of the stage.

She took out a brush, dipped it in ink, and began to splash the ink on the rice paper.

Her movements are light and smooth, and every stroke is full of power and charm.

After a while, a beautiful painting appeared in front of everyone.

The mountains and rivers in the painting are shrouded in clouds and mist, making people seem to be immersed in it.

After the ladies showed off their talents, the whole palace burst into warm applause.

They not only showed their talents, but also won everyone's admiration and respect.

The emperor and the princes were also silently calculating in their hearts who would become their future consort.

The emperor looked at the fourth prince. Among the unmarried princes, he was the oldest. "Fourth prince, you may like the talents of the ladies."

Does this mean obviously?

Which talent do you like? I just like that girl. As long as the fourth prince names the girl he likes, the emperor will immediately marry him.

There is no need to ask for the woman’s opinion at all.

As soon as the emperor said this, everyone's eyes were focused on the fourth prince.

As the oldest among these princes, he is naturally the center of attention.

The fourth prince nodded slightly and swept his eyes among the ladies, as if looking for the person who could touch his heartstrings.

The fourth prince has always been calm and reserved, and does not express his feelings easily.

However, at this critical moment, he felt inexplicably nervous.

It's not that he doesn't have someone he likes, it's just that in the public eye, he hopes to find a partner who fits his soul.

At this moment, his eyes fell on the lady in white.

She was standing quietly aside, her temperament was elegant and refined, like a white lotus in full bloom.

He was also impressed by her talent display, and the landscape painting amazed him even more.

The fourth prince's heart moved, and he knew that he had finally found the person who made his heart beat.

However, he did not show it immediately, but took a deep breath to keep himself calm.

When the emperor saw that the fourth prince did not answer, he couldn't help but feel a little curious.

He frowned slightly and asked again: "Fourth Prince, is it possible that the talents of these ladies are not of interest to you?"

When the fourth prince heard this, he smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Father, I am not picky, but I already have something in my heart."

As soon as these words came out, the entire palace fell silent. Everyone was guessing who the fourth prince had in mind.

The emperor also showed a curious look and asked: "Oh? I wonder which young lady the Fourth Emperor belongs to?"

The fourth prince took a deep breath and looked firmly at the lady in white.

He spoke slowly, with a clear and firm voice: "Father, the person I like is the lady in white who is showing off the landscape paintings."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

The lady in white also looked surprised, as if she didn't expect that she would be chosen by the fourth prince.

The emperor nodded slightly, a glimmer of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

He turned to the lady in white and asked with a smile: "Miss Ruyan, are you willing to be the prince's consort?"

Miss Ruyan felt excited. She didn't expect that she could win the prince's favor.

She took a deep breath, raised her head, faced the Emperor bravely, and said firmly in her voice: "Go back to the Emperor, I am willing."

As soon as these words came out, the whole palace was boiling.

The emperor also showed a satisfied smile. Miss Ruyan is the eldest daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs.

With both talent and beauty, she is one of the four famous talented women in Kyoto.

The fourth prince's consort was quickly decided upon, and the emperor was very happy.

He asked the Ninth Prince again, "Ruize, what about you?"

Ye Ruize felt panicked and kept looking outside the door.

I really hope Jiang Qingchen can show up at the door, but how is this possible.

The several groups of people sent by the emperor had no news at all. How could they survive today's test?

No wonder the Eight Wise Kings didn't mention the matter between themselves and Jiang Qingchen to the Queen Mother.

Or is it that the emperor’s aunt mentioned it but the mother-in-law didn’t agree?

Today's Jiang Qingchen is Huimin Gege, who is personally conferred by her mother, and is the adopted daughter of the Eighth Emperor's aunt. She is more than worthy of a concubine prince like herself.

Hearing the emperor calling him, the Ninth Prince hurriedly stood up. He pretended to accidentally remove the veil on his face, revealing the horrific scar.

The ladies sitting across from him all exclaimed softly. It was often said that the Ninth Prince had both civil and military skills and outstanding talent and appearance.

Why are there scars on my face?
