The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

When the Grain in Ear season came, Princess Cheng'an sent an invitation to Yang Lan and Yang Qi, inviting them to come to the princess's mansion to appreciate the flowers three days later.

Yang Qi felt the invitation was hot when she held it. If she guessed correctly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would also attend the banquet in three days.

In her previous life, Princess Cheng'an "slipped" and fell into the water in order to marry the Crown Prince. Unexpectedly, Yuan Ruiyuan walked away without even looking at her, and had no intention of jumping into the water to save her.

Princess Cheng'an's original plan was to let the Crown Prince save her in public. In this way, with all the noble ladies and gentlemen as witnesses, once the gossip in the capital spread, Princess Cheng'an would be able to marry the Crown Prince she had always dreamed of.

However, Princess Cheng'an underestimated Yuan Ruiyuan's character and also overestimated her own importance in the heart of the Crown Prince.

But everyone knows that Princess Cheng'an is just a superficial person. Her father is just a man who makes a living by guarding the title. Although Princess Shou is a princess, she is just a princess and has no power.

How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince marry a girl from such a family as his principal wife? I'm afraid it's unlikely that she would even become a concubine.

Yang Qi knew that this banquet was a hot potato, so he hurriedly took the invitation and went to Qinfang Courtyard.

Yang Qi handed the invitation she received to Yang Lan and said in bewilderment, "Second sister, last time at the Yongyi Marquis's residence, I saw that Princess Cheng'an was not a good person. With just a few words, she got Sister Yuxin to play the piano for her."

Yang Lan was a perceptive person. Princess Cheng'an did not hold back her provocation that day. She knew that the banquet three days later would be full of ill intentions. However, they would all live in the capital in the future, and such scenes would probably happen frequently: "Don't worry, we will go to the banquet openly and do our best."

After saying that, Yang Lan handed the invitation back to Yang Qi.

After receiving the invitation, Yang Qi was somewhat helpless: "Second sister, you said that Princess Cheng'an is really strange. You and I are from the same mansion, why did you send two invitations? Moreover, if you really wanted to send one, why did you leave out Sixth Sister?"

At the banquet three days later, Princess Cheng'an had invited only legitimate children, so she would not invite a concubine's daughter like Yang He. However, if a concubine's daughter was willing to attend, it would be ok for the legitimate daughter to lead the group.

The strange thing is why no invitation was sent to Yang Jing. It was because An and Yang Jing had just returned home, and the people in the Princess's Mansion were careless, or they did it deliberately, causing a commotion in the Duke of Song's Mansion.

Yang Lan looked at Yang Qi's conflicted expression and handed her a cup of freshly made tea: "Don't think too much. If Sixth Sister wants to go and see the fun, we can go together." If not, just stay at home.

Now Yang Jing's personality has become willful because of what An has done to her. If she is forced to change her ways, she will probably suffer in the future.

Yang Qi keenly grasped the meaning of Yang Lan's words. Could it be that Yang Lan already knew that Cheng'an County Lord was going to do something at the flower viewing banquet?

Although Yang Lan usually looks quiet and peaceful, her sources of information are fast and comprehensive. Yang Qi is trying to catch up with this. Yang Lan has the resources of the Duke of Song and the Marquis of Yongyi since she was born. If there is any movement in the capital, Yang Lan will know it at the first time.

I’m afraid Princess Cheng’an’s brain isn’t enough, even Yang Lan got the news in advance.

Seeing Yang Lan's confident look, Yang Qi also felt relieved. It seemed that he didn't need to bother to inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I'm afraid his secret guards would not bother to investigate this matter carefully.

After taking a sip of the tea made by Yang Lan, Yang Qi couldn't help but sigh: "What a great tea, second sister, have you improved your tea-making skills?"

Yang Jing was punished by the old lady, and all the maids and servants around her were replaced by the old lady. Even though An was reluctant, Yang Jing had to move out of the main courtyard under the old lady's order. Fortunately, An was still the mistress of the house, so she had people clean up the Fangfei Pavilion closest to the main house. After several moves, Yang Jing is not well-informed about the news in the mansion.

But An Xiaoqiu was still active. When she learned that Princess Cheng'an came to the mansion to send invitations to Yang Qi and Yang Lan, she had an idea in her mind and immediately asked someone to hand the matter over to Yang Jing.

An Xiaoqiu knew that if she wanted to attend the banquet, she could only be introduced by the eldest daughter of the mansion. However, Yang Lan and Yang Qi had never had a good impression of her. They had openly given her a cold shoulder in her aunt's room a few days ago. It would be hopeless to ask them for help. The only way now was to let her good cousin take her in.

It was just as Yang Qi had imagined. Yang Jing was furious when she learned that Princess Cheng'an had not invited her, but due to the old lady's punishment, she could only sulk in the house.

There was no other way, so Yang Jing could only ask Anshi for help. The flower viewing banquet was organized by the princess and held in the princess's mansion. The scale of the banquet was completely incomparable to the banquet held in the Han Mansion that day.

Yang Jing firmly believed that it must be because she had just returned to Beijing and those nobles did not know about her yet, so they missed it.

After what happened with Yang Qi, An Shi became more cautious in her actions in the Duke's Mansion: "Since the old lady said that you cannot leave the mansion without her order, it's only been a few days, so you should just stay in the mansion."

Yang Jing dropped her golden beans: "Mom, this banquet is hosted by the princess. If I can't even enter this banquet, then who will recognize my identity as the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion?"

Seeing Jing Jie'er's wish, An said: "Well, you go find Yang Lan and talk to her." Yang Lan has always had a reputation in the mansion for caring for his younger sisters. Of course, this is mainly because Yang Lan cares for Yang Qi. Whenever he gets something good, he will prepare a copy for Yang Qi. As for Yang He, he will also help her to the best of his ability.

Although Yang Lan cares about her sisters, she is not stupid.

Yang Jing was ordered by her grandmother not to leave the house. If she agreed, it would be against her grandmother's order. Yang Lan would never do such a thing: "Sixth sister, there is no problem taking you to the flower viewing banquet, but this must be based on the grandmother's lifting of your ban."

Nanny Li frowned as she watched Yang Jing pleading. Yang Jing looked nothing like a girl from a duke's mansion, but just like a village girl from a farm. An was really good at raising a girl, and she had ruined her only child. Now, the Sixth Miss's temperament was set, and I was afraid that ordinary means could not change her.

Yang Lan was a man who would not change his mind, and no matter how Yang Jing begged, he remained unmoved.

Seeing that Yang Lan would not give in, Yang Jing had no choice but to leave Qinfang Courtyard. Her second sister was unwilling to take her, and her third sister had fallen out with her, so it seemed that she could only go and beg her father to speak up.

However, Daddy has become very fierce recently, and Yang Jing hasn't seen him for a few days.
