When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!

The beds in the private rooms of Bixiao Tower, the most prestigious restaurant in Kyoto, were in a mess.

The red gauze curtains, the embroidered robes and the thin silk skirts under the bed were intertwined, just like their owners on the bed, their skins were pressed together and inseparable.

The painful moans and the gasps of release come one after another, creating a beautiful spring scene.

The clouds collect and the rain stops.

The man on the bed seemed to be satisfied, and he continued to play with the roundness of the woman's breasts beside him, causing the woman to moan softly:

"Your Highness Prince Qi, Your Highness Prince Qi."

"Xing'er is still the one who pleases me. She is not like Xu Mingxi, who is so arrogant and acts like a legitimate daughter. She always says 'not polite' when someone touches my hand. It's really boring. She is really not as good as Xing'er who I can't let go of!"

"Your Highness would just make fun of Xing'er. How can Xing'er compare to my sister in helping Your Highness?"

Xu Baiyu pretended to be shy and lightly hit Qin Zhaolie's chest, and then put her cheek against his. Qin Zhaolie held her pink fist and kissed her several times:

"Alas, Xing'er, don't underestimate yourself. Her status as a legitimate daughter is of some use. As long as Xing'er is obedient, her position will be yours in the future."

Xu Baiyu's face flashed a fierce look where Qin Zhaolie couldn't see, and then it changed into an expression of admiration and expectation. He looked up at Qin Zhaolie with his eyes full of charm:

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I have an informant next to her. The stuff has been smeared on her. As long as she is within three steps of Prince Rong, there will be something interesting to watch."

"Xing'er is still sensible and is the best at helping me solve my problems."

"But my sister seems to have a grudge about this incident. Xing'er went to visit her and she seemed to have quite a few complaints. Your Highness must comfort her."

"She has the nerve to get angry when her plan failed. She is really ungrateful. I have my own arrangements."

Qin Zhaolie lowered his head, finally unable to bear her tender gaze of "admiration for the strong".

There was another surge of excitement in his heart, and he pulled Xu Baiyu to make love again.

By the time Xu Baiyu returned to the Xu Mansion, it was almost the evening hour.

As soon as she returned to Hanxing Courtyard, she received a message saying that the old lady invited all the young ladies to Fu'an Hall. After hastily re-dressing, Xu Baiyu stroked the hairpin that Qin Zhaolie had given her today and walked towards Fu'an Hall with a twist of her waist.

On the way, they met Xu Mingxi and Xu Xinyue, as well as the two daughters of Aunt Lin from the first wife's house, Xu Qingyun and Xu Ruoyu.

Although Xu Qingyun and Xu Ruoyu are siblings, their personalities and appearances are indeed very different.

Xu Qingyun looks very similar to his father Xu Guanghai and has a calm personality.

Xu Ruoyu looks like her mother Lin Shuer and has a more eccentric personality.

Xu Guanghai himself came from a poor family. He entered the official career after being the second place in the imperial examination, but he could only get the position of an editor. He was dull by nature, had no money, no power, and no connections. If he worked hard, he would probably have little chance of making a name for himself in this life.

Fortunately, he was not bad-looking and was a decent person at that time, so Yang chose him and insisted on marrying him. With the help of his father-in-law, he got to his current position.

The group walked together and soon arrived at the entrance of Fu'an Hall.

I found that someone was already waiting at the door. It was the old lady's personal attendant, Nanny Jin.

Leading a group of people into the front hall, passing the Liuhe screen with a picture of pine and crane for longevity, they saw the old lady wearing a dark blue brocade dress with a pattern of five blessings holding longevity, a pine green stone headband on her head, and a solemn face. She was sitting firmly on a Huanghuali armchair with an openwork Kirin carved on it, and there was a cup of steaming ginseng tea on the table next to her.

The person standing by to serve at this time was not Nanny Jin, but Xu Mingxi. Everyone looked puzzled, looking at each other, wondering why the old lady had summoned everyone.

After everyone sat down, the old lady spoke:

“It’s no big deal to call you all here.

The palace has sent out an invitation, and originally only the sons and daughters of officials' wives were allowed to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet five days later. But this time, Concubine Qing has specially asked Your Majesty for a favor, so that children who are not officials' wives or legitimate descendants can also go and broaden their horizons.

In addition to Mingxi, our family can also bring a girl with us. We have called you here to discuss who is suitable to go."

After hearing this, everyone had different expressions on their faces. Some were surprised, some were excited, and some were eager to try...

Except for the eldest lady Yang, no one said a word. She sat quietly below and sipped her tea. She didn't have to worry about her only daughter Xu Mingxi, so she was happy to stay out of the matter and watch the show.

Concubine Qing was originally the daughter of the Minister of Revenue. Her mother was the second wife and she was the eldest daughter of the second wife in the family. Because she was the later-born, she was given the title of legitimate daughter.

He did not get along well with the original daughter of the Minister of Revenue.

Instead, she became good friends with her half-sister, fearing that her half-sister was getting older and would not be willing to marry an ordinary bastard's wife, so she specially asked Concubine Qing for this gift. She was afraid that she would become the target of public criticism if she was the only one, so she received this special gift.

Look, she is so honored that she invited so many people to set up this stage for her. It seems that there will be some good shows at this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

"What do you think?" the old lady took a sip of tea and asked after glancing at the ladies.

Xu Baiyu couldn't contain her excitement. Although she was asking openly, who didn't know that she and Xu Mingxi had always been good friends?

In the past, Xu Mingxi would always take her with him to various banquets for officials' wives and daughters. The number of places for this banquet would be roughly the same as in the past. As long as Xu Mingxi said a word or two, it would naturally become hers.

She gently nudged Aunt Rong, winked at her, and nodded to Xu Mingxi. Aunt Rong understood, patted her hand gently to comfort her, and said carefully:

“Even though all the ladies are welcome, this is a palace banquet after all, so we cannot lose our dignity.

Xing'er had been to various banquets with the eldest lady before, and was quite friendly with all the other ladies. She would not be nervous because she was unfamiliar with the place, and would not lose her manners at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. I think this is the most appropriate option.

What do you think, old lady?"

Although Aunt Rong and Xu Baiyu were speaking to the old lady, their eyes unconsciously turned to Xu Mingxi, hoping that she could say a few words in response, so that the matter would basically be settled.

However, the expected echo did not come.

At this moment, Xu Mingxi seemed to be unable to see the eye hints from the two of them. He just stood there in a daze, not saying a word.

On the contrary, Aunt Lin's daughter, Xu Ruoyu, refused to accept it: "What are you talking about, Aunt Rong? How dare you put the gold on someone else's face on your own face.

Every time, it is Sister Yu who shamelessly follows Sister Xi to the banquet. It is hard to say whether other young ladies look down on her or not, but even if they are good friends, why would a legitimate young lady be friends with a concubine like you? "

These words directly touched Xu Baiyu's lungs. He pulled the handkerchief to suppress his anger and retorted:

"How do you know that I'm not good friends with you? Even if I'm not, we're still acquaintances. We can talk to each other. And you've been to a few banquets. I'm afraid you can't even recognize her name and face."

"Whether it matches or not is not a big deal. As long as you know the rules and behave yourself, it doesn't matter if it's your first time attending a palace banquet.

We don’t expect to become an empress at this Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, right, Grandmother?”

This time it was Xu Qingyun who spoke up to refute. She had always been calm and reserved. In comparison, her words were much more pertinent and pleasant to listen to than Xu Ruoyu's.

"Well, that's a rough point, but the logic is valid." The old lady looked at Xu Qingyun and nodded in agreement.

The two sides were arguing and neither would give in, and both wanted to go to the palace banquet.

Only Xu Xinyue was drinking tea with her head down, not participating in the competition, and seemed oblivious to the noise.

She was originally from the third branch and did not want to get involved in the fight between the first branch. Moreover, she felt that there was no need to go to the palace banquet. It would be better for her to have some snacks and drink some wine with her father in Qinghan Courtyard and enjoy the rare time of father-daughter reunion.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. But suddenly he heard his name being called.

"Sister Yue, what do you think?" the old lady suddenly asked her.

I don’t know when it started, but the originally noisy hall suddenly became silent.

Everyone was staring at Xu Xinyue's every word and action.

"What, what?" He was so immersed in his own world that he didn't hear the whole story clearly. He seemed a little stunned when he was suddenly named.

The old lady seemed displeased with her reaction: "Sister Xi said that she thinks you are suitable to go to the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. What do you think?"

"I..." Without waiting for Xu Xinyue to refuse, Xu Mingxi said to the old lady:

“Although Third Uncle has never worked in the palace, my sister is the only daughter of the Third House after all, and a legitimate daughter, so it is not a problem for her to enter the palace.

If I choose one of my illegitimate sisters to take away, there is a saying that goes, "It is not the lack of wealth that is worrying, but the inequality of wealth." No matter which one I choose, the other sisters will probably be unwilling.

Why not take Sister Yue with you? I'm sure the other sisters will agree."

Xu Qingyun and Xu Ruoyu were very unhappy that they couldn't go.

But I am willing to let Xu Baiyu suffer a loss.

Xu Baiyu was so angry that her teeth were about to break. Normally, she had the best relationship with the eldest wife, but today, she became one of the "other sisters"!

All the quotas belong to the eldest wife. When will it be the turn of the third wife's sister?

Xu Xinyue's trick of retreating in order to advance is very good.

Xu Baiyu twisted his handkerchief tightly, unwilling to suppress it.

The look he looked at Xu Xinyue became increasingly unfriendly.
