Female Master: The Cold Prince

Chapter 86 New Year's Eve Banquet

In Qinlin County, because the princess followed all the regulations set by the prince, the flood control was soon effectively alleviated, the victims had food and shelter, and no riots were caused.

Time flies, and it is New Year's Eve.

In order to celebrate the improvement of the flood situation in Qinlin County, the palace held a grand banquet and invited all officials above the fourth rank in the court to attend the banquet.

This year's New Year's Eve was particularly grand and lively. Even many concubines from the harem who had never appeared before were present and sat on the high platform.

At this time, the banquet had already started. Many officials spoke nice words to the empress and took turns toasting her. Feng Jun also smiled and cooperated. After not seeing him for several months, there was a hint of vicissitudes in his eyes.

In the center of the hall, a man dressed in a tulle was dancing lightly. He had a graceful figure and enchanting dance moves, and the thin tulle skirt made his snow-white skin vaguely visible.

Such an erotic scene made the eyes of countless women present shine and their blood boil.

Even the queen on the high platform couldn't help but look sideways when she saw this scene.

Today, Xiahou Jiuyue is still dazzling in her red dress. Even if there is no smile on her face, she can still attract countless men to fall in love with her.

She was drinking alone, with a lazy air in her every move. Slowly, she seemed to sense a pair of eyes full of other meanings staring at her. Immediately, she raised her eyes and followed the direction.

On the high platform, on the left hand side of Feng Jun sat an enchanting man in purple clothes. The man had an extremely handsome face, eyes like water, and exuded a sense of charm. His deep and charming eyes showed a hint of smile towards Xiahou Jiuyue.

Seeing this, Xiahou Jiuyue narrowed her eyes slightly. This was the first time she saw this person, and she couldn't help but look at him carefully.

"Fourth sister, do you know Li Jun?" the princess suddenly asked.

The two of them were very close to each other, and she saw everything Xiahou Jiuyue did. Seeing her staring at the person from Yueyao Palace, she couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, Xiahou Jiuyue's eyes dimmed. Li Jun? Yueyao Palace, Gong Li Que?

Ha! The look she gave that person was no longer a look of scrutiny, but a hint of coldness. She had never forgotten that it was because of this person's entry into the palace that her father and mother had been in a cold war for several months.

But then again, this person does have a somewhat seductive appearance, giving people a feeling of not only allure but also mystery.

After only a few glances, she looked away and replied, "I don't recognize him. I saw him for the first time today."

"Oh? Then why is he always looking at the Fourth Princess? I thought you two knew each other." The princess said with an ambiguous look in her eyes.

Gong Lique, who was sitting on the high platform, saw that man withdraw his gaze and stopped staring at her. Instead, he raised his glass and drank alone.

Here, Yu Suyuan was also surrounded by a group of men. They were all very curious about the Prince of Nanyang, so everyone came forward to get close to him.

Yu Suyuan had never seen such a grand scene before. For a moment, he seemed a little at a loss, not knowing how to deal with it.

Fortunately, Lin Xuan was there to serve him, so he didn't get too rude.

While Yu Suyuan was busy dealing with everyone, he also stole glances at Xiahou Jiuyue. It was obvious that her eyes never looked at him, and he couldn't help feeling a sense of loss in his heart.

At this time, a clear and pleasant sound of piano suddenly rang out in the hall. The sound was melodious, like the gurgling of mountain streams. The listeners seemed to be instantly transported to the mountains and streams, feeling the breath of nature, which was refreshing and refreshing.

All the court officials put down their wine glasses and looked with intoxicated eyes at the man in the center of the hall who looked like a banished immortal. He was dressed in white clothes as white as snow, with a face as beautiful as a painting and a smile on his face. His slender, white and well-defined fingers gracefully plucked the strings of the zither.

Xiahou Jiuyue, who had never been interested in any singing and dancing, couldn't help but look at the man at this moment.

Unexpectedly, the man playing the piano was looking at her with deep eyes. In an instant, their eyes met and sparks flew.

Xiahou Jiuyue was stunned for a moment. For some reason, she felt a strange feeling in her heart. Before she could figure it out, the song was over.

At this time, the empress said with a bright face: "Master Wen is indeed the best in the capital. I am afraid that only Master Wen can produce such extraordinary music. Not bad."

Maybe it was because she drank a lot of wine tonight that she looked a little drunk.

After hearing this, all the court officials came to their senses. This Master Wen was indeed amazing and his piano skills were so superb.

"Your Majesty is absolutely right. Young Master Wen has already reached a superb level of musical instrument skills at such a young age. This is indeed rare." Feng Jun quickly agreed. Today, he must change His Majesty's attitude towards him.

The Queen nodded slightly, expressing her agreement, "Mr. Feng is right."

Then, she looked down at the Wen family's location, and said with satisfaction in her eyes: "Lord Wen, you gave birth to a good son!"

Hearing this, Wen Chenlian stood up and said, "I am so embarrassed. I am just showing off my skills. It is my blessing to be praised by Your Majesty and Lord Feng."

"My dear minister, there is no need to be so modest. Master Wen is indeed worthy of the title of the number one person in the capital."

The Queen was immediately dissatisfied with her words. Who would speak of their own children like this? Sometimes being too modest can seem a bit hypocritical.

With Wen Jueshang's wonderful performance, countless unmarried men were instantly aroused to compete with each other, and they rushed to show themselves.

Opportunities are rare. Who wouldn't want to show up in front of His Majesty and so many princes? If you're lucky, you might even be noticed.

The singing and dancing continued, but the subsequent performances were all about the men from various official families competing with each other for beauty.

Xiahou Jiuyue had no interest in this boring performance, nor did she have any desire to join in a conversation. She just drank alone.

The same was true for Yu Suyuan here. At this moment, facing all kinds of tempting delicacies in front of him, they were all bland and tasteless, like chewing wax.

His heart was completely devoted to Xiahou Jiuyue, but the other party never responded to him, which made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

It has only been about half a month since he moved into the Prince's Mansion, but A Yue's attitude towards him has changed drastically. Now, she is so cold to him.

Thinking that they had not met or spoken to each other in the past half month, he felt tormented and suspicious.

Just as he was daydreaming, he suddenly saw Wen Jueshang walking towards that man, and his heart suddenly tightened uncontrollably.

Wen Jueshang said something to her, and after a moment, the two of them left the hall together.

Seeing this, the tense string in Yu Suyuan's heart suddenly broke, and an indescribable sadness suddenly surged into his heart.
