"Hey, I didn't see it. Yun Xu is still growing."

Mu Yunxi stopped there and didn't continue talking, but these words made Mu Yunxu very angry.

He is just a little smaller, so what? He will grow up anyway. Mu Yunxu was so angry that his liver hurt, but he didn't dare to say anything.

After all, he was beaten so badly by this imperial sister when he was a child. If he hadn't been protected by his brother the crown prince, he would have almost lost his limbs and would not have grown up to be so heroic.

Mu Yunchen watched Mu Yunxu's frustrated look from the side and laughed heartily. The imperial sister had always liked to tease Yunxu since he was a child, but Yunxu didn't dare to say a word.

Could it be that the bloodline of the imperial sister was suppressed on the wrong person? Why wasn't he so afraid of the imperial sister?

Bai Shou looked at the people who had come during the day, and now almost everyone had arrived. He stepped forward, bowed to Mu Yunchen, and asked, "Your Highness, may we start the feast?"

But he was extremely depressed. Whose birthday was it? How much face did he have to have to have all these gods come? Fortunately the one from the palace didn't come.

Celebrating a birthday really exhausted me, an old man.

Mu Yunchen nodded and said to Bai Shou: "General Bai, please take a seat."

Then he turned around and said to the people below: "Let's start the meal."

As soon as he finished speaking, the table became lively, with young men from wealthy families toasting each other, some coming forward to toast and congratulate Bai Shou, and some women chatting with each other.

At this moment, Mu Yunchen sat in the seat of honor, and Mu Peiyun could see him, but she just looked at the person who was in a high position intentionally or unintentionally.

In this noisy and lively occasion, he was the only one who stood out. Just standing there, he always attracted her attention and she couldn't help but look at him again and again.

Such a bright and beautiful person, but I let him down so much in my previous life.

But when Mu Yunchen felt Mu Peiyun's gaze, he turned his head and saw her shaking the wine glass in her hand with her head down. Could it be that she drank some fine wine and her mind was not clear?

The banquet was halfway through when Mu Yunyu came back with Mu Peiyao. As soon as they entered the table, their expressions became serious, and the air around them seemed to become a little colder.

The usually gentle and polite Fifth Prince was so serious at this moment that everyone fell silent in an instant.

Mu Peiyao who was following behind her was somewhat proud. She seldom attracted so much attention. At this moment, she seemed like a princess and everyone around her envied her.

In the past, when she followed Mu Peiyun, all her bright spots were ignored. Others could only see Mu Peiyun, not her, Mu Peiyao.

But at this moment, without Mu Peiyun, she was no longer overshadowed, and everyone's eyes were on her.

Thinking of this, Mu Peiyao subconsciously straightened his back and looked very graceful.

But when Mu Qingqing looked at the person who came in, she was so angry that she couldn't say anything. Due to the occasion, she dared not express her anger.

When Mu Peiyun noticed it, she was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head. She really didn't expect Mu Peiyao to be so brave.

In order to marry into the royal family, she no longer cared about her reputation. She even came in with Mu Yunyu, completely ignoring the looks of those around her.

From time to time, there were discussions in the crowd, and many unmarried girls lowered their heads, fearing that this scene would pollute their eyes.

When Mu Jin saw this, her face turned blue and purple, and she wanted to stand up immediately and pull Mu Peiyao back.

But the person in charge hadn't spoken yet, so how could he, a subject, speak first?

"I was wondering why I didn't see my fifth brother. It turns out that he was curious about the back garden of the general's mansion and spent so much time looking at it."

Mu Yunxi's words made it hard to tell whether they were good or bad.

It seemed like he was making excuses for Mu Yunyu, but also like he was deliberately making things worse, causing everyone to speculate.

Mu Yunchen on the side cast a puzzled look at Mu Yunxi in surprise, but received no reply.

As expected, Mu Yunyu's face changed, he shook his sleeves, bowed to Mu Yunxi and said, "My sister is joking, my brother and Miss Mu Er just met by chance."

Mu Peiyao, who was standing by, also came out from behind and saluted to Mu Yunxi: "Your Highness, the Princess, and Your Highness, the Crown Prince."

Unexpectedly, Mu Yunxi seemed not to hear it and was still looking at Mu Yunyu with interest.

"I only said that you were curious about the back garden of the general's mansion, how did you bring it up with Miss Mu Er?"

Mu Yunyu was a little stunned for a moment. He usually treated people with courtesy and handled himself well in the officialdom and court. What happened today?

The plan that he had carefully planned before was destroyed, and now it seemed like he had lost his wits and became stupid. He actually fell into Mu Yunxi's trap.

Thinking of this, Mu Yunyu simply stopped talking and stood there with a frown, not moving.

Seeing that something was not right, Bai Shou hurried forward to smooth things over.

"Haha, Fifth Prince, please take a seat, the feast has already begun."

With the stairs, Mu Yunyu naturally went down and walked towards the location Bai Shou pointed, ignoring the gazes around him.

It seemed that as long as he pretended to be calm and collected, many things would never have happened.

But when he left, Mu Peiyao felt a little awkward standing there. Mu Jin glared at her with a look of disappointment and waved at her.

Mu Peiyao reluctantly walked towards the women's seats.

When I passed by the round table, I heard the woman sitting there say disdainfully: "You are so shameless. You dare to seduce someone before you even get married. What will happen if you get married?"

The sound was neither loud nor soft, but it happened to be carried by the wind to Mu Peiyao's ears.

Mu Peiyao suddenly stopped in her tracks. Normally, people looked down on her because of her status as a concubine's daughter. Now that she was seated at the same table with the Fifth Prince, there were still people who looked down on her.

As if she was possessed, or perhaps because Mu Yunyu had promised her the position of concubine, Mu Peiyao felt that she was already the master of the palace.

How could he bear this kind of anger? He turned around and pointed at the woman and started to accuse her: "Whose family are you from?

The Fifth Prince already said before that he and I met by chance, why are you still talking nonsense here?

Ruining my reputation is a minor matter, but if you ruin the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, you won't be able to explain yourself no matter how many mouths you have."

Sure enough, at this moment, Mu Peiyao did not forget her usual tricks. She wanted to let others know that even though she was a concubine's daughter and could not care about herself, she would definitely consider the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Mu Yunyu, whose butt wasn't even warm yet, sighed deeply in his heart as he listened to Mu Peiyao's words.

Didn’t this just happen? Why can’t you just be patient?

Mu Peiyao's action attracted everyone's attention again. The woman obviously didn't expect Mu Peiyao to point at her nose and talk to her, and she lost her mind all of a sudden.

Sitting in her seat, she said sarcastically: "If you don't know, you might think she is the daughter of some wealthy family. She dares to point at my nose and talk.

Why are you pretending to be so noble? At noon, someone saw someone following the Fifth Prince to the back garden of the General's Mansion. Who knows what they were doing there?"

Although it was not explained in detail, it left endless room for everyone's imagination. Mu Peiyao then realized something and felt embarrassed and angry. She opened her mouth but could not find a way to argue.

Seeing this, Mu Qingqing was about to stand up and resolve the farce. After all, she was the mistress of the house, how could she allow her concubine's daughter to cause trouble outside without disciplining her?
