Chu Ninghan still had his eyes covered with a white scarf, but he had changed into a black and gold robe, which made him look a little more formal.

Chu Mingzhao followed beside him, wearing a goose yellow dress, with two buns on her head. A golden lotus flower was pinned on her round hair bun. A goose yellow headband of the same color and the loose hair around her cheeks fell down to her chest.

He looks energetic and you can't tell he's sick at all.

Jiang Li was slightly dazed. Chu Mingzhao looked much better than when he saw him a month ago.

"It's Prince Yong!"

"Doesn't Prince Yong ever attend such banquets?"

"Alas! What a pity! How come His Royal Highness Prince Yong, a banished immortal, is nowhere to be seen?"

The appearance of the father and daughter was like a bucket of cold water poured into boiling oil, and the nobles who were already seated at the table suddenly became excited.

There were many people exclaiming in surprise.

As the father and daughter got closer, the voices of the nobles around them became quieter and quieter.

Almost everyone stood up to greet him.

"Welcome His Royal Highness Prince Yong and His Royal Highness the Princess!"

The Yongning Marquis Mansion is naturally the same.

Xie Jun stood up slowly and glanced at Chu Ninghan. He glanced at Jiang Li again, his lips slightly curled, and a flash of malice appeared in his eyes.

As expected, King Yong will appear today!

Then as long as their plan goes well, Jiang Li will definitely die!

"Prince Yongning, is your face cramping?"

The girl's voice suddenly sounded in front of him. Xie Jun was furious and lowered his head.

Chu Mingzhao had actually walked up to them!

Xie Jun's anger was immediately forced back. He tried to put on a normal smile and said to Chu Mingzhao.

"The princess misunderstood."

Chu Mingzhao sneered and ignored him completely.

The words in his mouth were even more disgusting, "How can you look so ugly when you don't have cramps!"

What Chu Mingzhao said was really unpleasant.

To put it bluntly, it means directly scolding Xie Junchou.

The same sneering voice was faintly heard at the banquet among the flowers, and Xie Jun's face instantly darkened.

But Chu Mingzhao still felt it was not enough, he opened his mouth and spoke poisonously again.

"I've heard that the prince was very handsome and famous in the capital when he was young. But now it seems that it's all rumors and can't be believed at all. You are obviously extremely ugly!"

Xie Jun gritted his teeth and lowered his head slightly to hide the anger in his eyes.

"Princess, don't joke!"

If Chu Mingzhao was an ordinary child, he would never let her talk nonsense and would have picked up anything at hand and thrown it at her.

However, Chu Mingzhao is the Princess of Prince Yong, and this is the Five Poisons Banquet, a palace banquet.

He could not show even a single word of anger, otherwise King Yong would execute him on the spot and he would have no place to cry.

"I'm not joking, it's just the truth!"

Chu Mingzhao didn't give him any face at all and sneered, "You are as shameless as your sister Xie Yan, and just as ugly!"

An ugly person is even uglier at heart!

What's the deep love between Xie Jun and Jiang Li? The look in Xie Jun's eyes when he just stole a glance at Jiang Li was exactly the same as the look in Xie Yan's eyes that showed hatred towards Jiang Li!

Both of them, brother and sister, have ill will towards Jiang Li!

He'd better not do anything today, otherwise she will make Xie Jun pay!

"Hahaha!"

The other nobles laughed quietly again, and someone could be heard speaking faintly.

"It turns out it's because of Xie Yan!"

"The princess did it on purpose!"

Chu Mingzhao is a child after all. He is looking for trouble with Xie Jun for no reason and his reasons are a bit far-fetched.

Ultimately, it’s still out of jealousy over what happened at the last Hundred Flowers Banquet.

After all, if Jiang Li had not been there at that time, Chu Mingzhao might have died immediately.

Sure enough, Chu Mingzhao's smiling voice was heard again.

"Princess, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are getting more and more beautiful!"

When he looked again, Chu Mingzhao had already walked in front of Jiang Li.

She looked up at Jiang Li, her heart and eyes filled with unstoppable joy.

Finally, she saw Jiang Li again!

Compared with Xie Jun, the love and hate in Chu Mingzhao's eyes couldn't be more obvious.

Listening to the jokes behind the scenes, Xie Jun's face turned pale and green, like a color palette.

But what happened at the Hundred Flowers Banquet happened in full view of everyone, and now he couldn't say a word and couldn't make any excuses.

"My Lord, you are so kind. It's been a long time since we last met. Are you all right?"

Jiang Li's answer can only be described as standard, not impolite, but not intimate either.

She even lowered her eyelashes and didn't look at Chu Mingzhao.

The distance is well controlled.

Just as she had agreed with Chu Ninghan, she would never get close to Chu Mingzhao and let Chu Mingzhao transfer his longing for his mother to her.

"It's all good! Princess, I..."

Before Chu Mingzhao could finish her words, a hand suddenly grabbed the back of her collar.

"gone."

Chu Ninghan's voice was as cold as ever. He pulled Chu Mingzhao and turned to sit down at the seat at Prince Yong's mansion nearby.

It was just a coincidence that the seats in the Yongning Marquis' Mansion and the Yongwang Palace were only ten feet apart.

According to common sense, only those of Duke and above are qualified to be so close to Emperor Yong.

This shouldn't be the seat of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.

Jiang Li raised his eyes and looked at the lotus platform in the lake again, and his eyes swept over King Yong who shouldn't be there.

A guess suddenly came to my mind.

Could this be the assassination banquet where Prince Yong was seriously injured in the previous life?

It was a pity that her mind was focused on Changping School at that time and she didn't pay much attention to the specific time and the cause and effect.

I only vaguely remember that around May or June, an assassination attempt took place in the palace, which resulted in Prince Yong being seriously injured. It was rumored that he had to stay in bed to recuperate after having just recovered a little.

Whether in the past or this life, Chu Ninghan almost never attended banquets.

So……

It is almost certain that this banquet will be the assassination banquet in the previous life.

The assassination at the Five Poisons Banquet was most likely directed and performed by the palace itself.

Therefore, Xie Jun looked so confident and proud. After all, with Jiang Tan and Xie Jun's means, all they could do was to take advantage of the chaos during the assassination.

Jiang Li withdrew his gaze and raised the corners of his lips slightly.

This is a good opportunity.

A chance to "use a favor" to make Chu Ninghan repay the favor.

Isn’t Chu Ninghan afraid of owing her a favor? Doesn’t he keep saying that she is seeking repayment for the favor?

Then this time she confirmed her intention to repay a favor.

The news that Chu Ninghan was seriously injured in the previous life may be true or false. With her around in this life, Chu Ninghan will definitely not be seriously injured!

Chu Ninghan couldn't help but feel indebted.

"Humph!"

Xie Jun drank another cup of herbal tea with a gloomy face. He caught a glimpse of Jiang Li's upturned lips from the corner of his eye, and his anger grew even stronger. He hated Jiang Li even more.

Originally, the person who was on good terms with Prince Yong’s Mansion should be Xie Yan!

If Jiang Li had not gone to Prince Yong's Mansion, causing Xie Yan to be driven away, why would Xie Yan have to offend Chu Mingzhao again and again in order to deal with Jiang Li?

How could Chu Mingzhao hold a grudge against the Shanghou Mansion and take his anger out on him, humiliating him in public!

It’s all Jiang Li’s fault!

But this bitch Jiang Li still dares to laugh!

She was just a nanny and a tool puppet he found, but she tried to climb over their heads!

She is delusional!

"The Emperor, Empress, and Imperial Concubine have arrived—"

Xie Jun's eyes suddenly lit up, and the anger in his heart suddenly turned into excitement.

The banquet is about to begin, Jiang Li should just wash his neck and wait for death!
