The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

On the day of Yang Lan's coming-of-age banquet, everyone in the Duke of Song's mansion wore new clothes and greeted the endless stream of guests with smiles on their faces.

Yang Qi also got up early that day.

The day before, the old lady and Yang Lan had told Yang Qi that all the prominent families in the capital would come to today's coming-of-age banquet.

The old lady and Mrs. Xu will be responsible for entertaining the elders from each mansion, while Yang Qi will be responsible for greeting the younger ones.

Among the young ladies of this generation in the Duke of Song's Mansion, apart from Yang Qi and Yang Lan, there are Yang He and Yang Jing. Unfortunately, Yang He is a concubine's daughter with a low status, and Yang Jing is too young and not calm enough, and she does things inappropriately.

As the protagonist of the coming-of-age banquet this time, Yang Lan must appear at the banquet, so the welcoming guests before the banquet can only be left to Yang Qi.

Ever since he opened his eyes, Yang Qi had to maintain a very decent smile when facing the officials' families.

After waiting for a long time until the banquet was about to begin, Yang Qi felt that he had completed half of his task for the day and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This morning, my face was almost frozen from smiling.

"Miss, Miss Bai is here." Nanny Zhu took advantage of Yang Qi's opportunity and reminded her in her ear.

Today is just the coming-of-age party for the daughter of Duke Song's mansion. High-ranking officials like Prime Minister Bai will naturally not come in person. Among the female relatives who have come, Prime Minister Bai's daughter-in-law and granddaughter Bai Yuxin are the most respected.

After all, Bai Yuxin is the Crown Princess appointed by His Majesty. After a few months of ceremony, she will be the Crown Princess of the Tianyuan Dynasty.

For some reason, Yang Qi felt a little moved when he heard the name "Bai Yuxin".

When Nanny Zhu saw the young lady's reaction, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Ever since the young lady came back with the Crown Prince's cloak that day, Nanny Zhu has known about the friendship between the young lady and the Crown Prince.

Today, Bai Yuxin is the Crown Prince's fiancée. Sooner or later, the young lady will have to face a situation like today.

"Miss, the second lady has gone ahead and is waiting."

Yang Qi winked at Nanny Zhu, telling her to rest assured. Then, he nodded slightly to the young ladies in front of him and took Nanny Zhu to the front yard to greet them.

The young ladies in the courtyard heard the message from Nanny Zhu and started talking to each other.

"Song Yanglan is really lucky to be able to invite Miss Bai."

"Yes, I heard from mother that the wedding schedule for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Bai has been set."

"I'm afraid that in the near future, we will have to greet Miss Bai by bowing and greeting her."

"It's strange to say, today is Song Yanglan's coming-of-age party, why is Miss Bai here?

This royal wedding banquet, the prince's wedding, I think Miss Bai must be very busy these days."

"What's so strange about this? Song Yanglan and Miss Bai are both disciples of Mr. Yang. They must have a good relationship in private."

Yang Qi did not walk far, and all the conversations and laughter of these young ladies from aristocratic families fell into her ears.

For some reason, even though His Highness had explained everything clearly to me, to this day, when Yang Qi heard these words, her heart still ached, as if a blunt knife was cutting her flesh.

Maybe it was because he got up too early, Yang Qi felt that his eyes were a little dark and everything seemed to be floating.

Nanny Zhu quietly supported the young lady and said, "Young lady, you got up too early today. Can you bear it?"

Yang Qi nodded silently. His Highness had said that a person of his status and position was destined not to be able to act as casually as ordinary people.

I have already made up my mind to stay with His Highness for a long time.

These are things that one must experience and endure.

When they arrived at the front yard, Xu had already arrived earlier than Yang Qi.

Seeing that Yang Qi's face was a little pale, Xu asked with concern: "Why do you look a little pale? Are you feeling unwell?"

Yang Qi touched his face and said, "Is it so obvious? This morning, Xiao Qi really didn't even have time to drink a sip of water."

Xu took out a box of lip balm from her bosom and lightly smeared it on Yang Qi's face. The light pink lip balm covered the slightly pale color of Yang Qi's lips, making her look much better.

Xu looked at Yang Qi's face with satisfaction, and nodded with a smile: "That's right, a child who hasn't married yet should dress up more beautifully."

By the time Xu had finished fixing Yang Qi's makeup, Madam Bai and Bai Yuxin's carriage stopped at the gate of the Duke's Mansion.

Xu and Yang Qi looked at each other, and then they stepped forward together to greet him.

Since Yang Qi had been "sick for more than half a year", she missed all the banquets in the capital, so Bai Yuxin hadn't seen her junior sister for almost a year.

After getting off the carriage, Bai Yuxin looked at Yang Qi, who was now smiling, and greeted her, "Sister Yang Qi, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Are you feeling better now?"

At the secret base, although Bai Yuxin did not see Yang Qi, Yang Qi had been secretly watching Bai Yuxin for several days.

"Thank you sister Yuxin for your concern. Yangqi is doing much better now.

By the way, Yang Qi has just recovered from a serious illness and has not yet congratulated Sister Yuxin on her marriage.

This prince is a man of both civil and military talents, and he and Sister Yuxin are destined to be together."

Yang Qi said the blessings, but his eyes were always on Bai Yuxin's expression.

Bai Yuxin had been secretly sharing her true feelings with the Fifth Prince and they were very intimate. Now that the wedding date with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was getting closer, no one knew how Bai Yuxin felt.

How could Yang Qi see through Bai Yuxin's flaws? "Thank you for the blessing, Sister Yang Qi."

Xu took Madam Bai into the house, while Yang Qi took Bai Yuxin to the courtyard where the young lady from the aristocratic family lived.

As the Crown Prince's fiancée, Bai Yuxin stepped into the yard. The young ladies from the aristocratic families who were originally talking in groups of three or four stopped talking and greeted Bai Yuxin in unison.

"Hello, Miss Bai."

Although Yang Qi was the daughter of the host family, she still stepped back slightly in this situation to prevent herself from being treated politely by others.

As soon as Bai Yuxin appeared on the stage, she became the center of attention. Every young lady from aristocratic family wanted to come forward and have a chat with her so as to establish a good relationship with the future Crown Princess.

In this way, Yang Qi's pressure was much less.

Because of the Xu family's relationship, General Xu's Mansion has always had a good relationship with the Duke of Song's Mansion.

Today, Han Chu also came to the Duke Song's Mansion early. He thought he could chat with Yang Qi for a while, but he never expected that Yang Qi was so busy today that he couldn't even have a sip of water. He had to drink some tea by himself.

Seeing that Bai Yuxin had taken most of the people away, Han Chu walked over to Yang Qi with a smile and said jokingly, "Busy man, do you finally have time to chat with me?"

Yang Qi exhaled and collapsed on Han Chu's body, "I am exhausted this morning."

"Where are your fifth and sixth sisters? Why don't you bring them out to see the world at this time?" Han Chu asked curiously.

Yang Qi patted Han Chu on the shoulder and led Han Chu to the stone table nearby: "It's hard to explain in a few words. I'll tell you in detail after the banquet is over."
