Rebirth of the Strongest Seventh Prince

Chu Lingfeng brought Shangguan Zi Yan into the hall, and then, led by the maid, came to the main venue of the banquet. That was the central square of the Zhenbei Palace. In the middle there were several large trees several meters thick, decorated with colorful silks and sparkling crystals.

There were dining tables under the trees, filled with rich wine and food, and some knives, forks and plates. Guests could choose their favorite food by themselves. There were many luxurious tables and chairs on the edge of the courtyard, where people could rest and eat. As for the center of the square, it was naturally a dance floor for dancing. As soon as Chu Lingfeng entered the square, there were exclamations in the hall. However, the protagonist was naturally not him, but Shangguan Ziyan beside him. Countless amazing eyes fell on Shangguan Ziyan at once. Everyone was amazed when another beauty comparable to the four beauties of the imperial city appeared in the imperial capital.

Being stared at by so many amazing eyes, Shangguan Ziyan frowned slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable. Chu Lingfeng saw this and stepped forward to shield her from many gazes. Shangguan Ziyan's brows relaxed, and she looked at Chu Lingfeng in surprise, seeming to be curious that this bad guy could also have a careful side.

The power of beauty was enormous. Immediately, several noble sons came up to her. One of them said in a gentlemanly manner, "Beautiful lady, I am the first-class baron An Ruoxuan, and my father is the first-class earl An Zairan. May I know your name, young lady?"

Before Shangguan Ziyan could say anything, Chu Lingfeng glared at the noble boy coldly and shouted disdainfully: "This prince's housekeeper is not someone a little baron like you can know. Get out of the way!"

Prince! Several noble sons immediately wilted and retreated in disgrace.

"Seventh brother, they are not qualified. I wonder if I, the fourth brother, am qualified?" A loud laugh came from behind. Chu Lingfeng turned his head and saw the fourth prince Chu Tianle and Long Yuxuan walking towards him slowly.

Chu Lingfeng laughed and said, "I was wondering who it was. It turned out to be Fourth Brother. What qualifications are you talking about? Come on, let me introduce you to Zi Yan. Come here!" Then he pulled Shangguan Zi Yan to his side and said, "Fourth Brother, this is my housekeeper Shangguan Zi Yan. Zi Yan, this is my Fourth Brother Chu Tianle. As for this one..." Chu Lingfeng pointed at Long Yuxuan, "He's just a supporting role. Don't bother with him!"

Supporting role? The grandson of the Grand Marshal was actually treated as a supporting role. Chu Tianle and Long Yuxuan's faces twitched fiercely, and Long Yuxuan's face was even more unfriendly. After all, in front of a beauty like Shangguan Ziyan, being ignored by others is a shameful thing.

"Haha, Miss Zi Yan, this is Baron Long Yuxuan, the grandson of Marshal Long. He is a sixth-rank swordsman!" Chu Tianle naturally couldn't bear to see Long Yuxuan, who came with them, being ignored, so he spoke up to explain for him.

Shangguan Ziyan rolled her eyes at Chu Lingfeng, then bowed slightly to Chu Tianle and Long Yuxuan and said, "Ziyan greets the Fourth Prince and Young Master Long!"

"Miss Shangguan, you're welcome!" Chu Tianle and Long Yuxuan hurriedly returned the greeting.

"Seventh brother, let's go over there and sit down and chat!" Chu Tianle said, pointing to a chair by the courtyard.

"Okay!" Chu Lingfeng nodded.

Leaning casually on the chair, Chu Lingfeng comfortably enjoyed the fruit cakes handed to him by Shangguan Zi Yan. His lazy look made the Fourth Prince and Long Yuxuan twitch their lips again, wondering why they couldn't enjoy such a good fortune.

In order to hide his embarrassment, the Fourth Prince laughed and said, "Seventh brother, I had something to do a while ago, so I couldn't go to celebrate your birthday in person. I'm really sorry!"

Haha, when did you think of celebrating my birthday? Chu Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's good enough that Fourth Brother is thoughtful. Besides, didn't you send someone to deliver a gift?"

The Fourth Prince nodded, then looked at Shangguan Zi Yan and asked curiously, "Why did Miss Zi Yan end up working as a housekeeper for my Seventh Brother?" Long Yuxuan, who had been secretly watching Shangguan Zi Yan, also pricked up his ears, wanting to know about the beauty. This guy seemed to have fallen in love with Shangguan Zi Yan at first sight.

Shangguan Zi Yan didn't say anything. Chu Lingfeng took over the topic for her and said, "Zi Yan was assigned to me by my late mother. She has been with me for many years. Thanks to her, I have been able to live such an easy and happy life these years." As he spoke, he touched Shangguan Zi Yan's soft hair. Shangguan Zi Yan's mouth curled up slightly, but she still gave him face and didn't dodge.

Seeing Shangguan Ziyan's "submissive" appearance, Long Yuxuan suddenly felt depressed and forced a smile.

At this moment, a loud voice came from the side.

"Fourth brother, seventh brother, long time no see. Hey, brother Yuxuan is here too!"

The three of them turned their heads and saw that the person who was speaking was a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes. He had a mature and steady look, and his temperament and appearance were impeccable. Judging from the golden dragon family emblem on his noble dress, he was obviously a royal family member. This person was the third prince, Chu Lingfeng's third brother Chu Tianyun, and the same mother brother of the little princess Chu Meir.

“Third brother, when did you come back? Why didn’t you inform me so that I could go and greet you?” The fourth prince Chu Tianle stepped forward and gave Chu Tianyun a gentle hug.

"Hello, Third Brother!" As far as Chu Lingfeng could remember, he had not had much contact with the Third Prince.

Chu Tianyun patted Chu Lingfeng on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Seventh brother, do you like the gift that Third Brother gave you last birthday?"

The gift you gave? What was it? Chu Lingfeng had a big question mark in his mind. You know, except for the gold card given by the Emperor Chu, he threw the other gifts aside without even glancing at them. God knows what the Third Prince gave him. However, in order not to embarrass him, Chu Lingfeng could only lie and say, "Not bad, not bad. I like it very much. Thank you, Third Brother!"

"I'm glad you like it!" Chu Tianyun nodded, and then said to Long Yuxuan: "Brother Yuxuan, long time no see, it seems that your dragon fighting spirit has improved even more!"

Long Yuxuan laughed and said, "No, no, I am no match for Your Highness!"

"Who is this girl?" Chu Tianyun had already noticed Shangguan Ziyan. Such a beautiful girl is rare, but he was too embarrassed to ask before he finished greeting her. Long Yuxuan said sourly, "This is Miss Ziyan, the housekeeper of the Seventh Prince. I am so envious!"
