Soon, it was almost noon.

The female relatives from various mansions who came to attend the birthday banquet of Princess Zhaohua were also led by servants all the way to the main hall in front where the banquet was held.

When the ladies arrived here, they naturally went to accompany their husbands and sat at the same table.

The young men and young ladies who came with them sat at separate tables.

Here, Su Huan, Zhu Shi, and Su Xuan, mother and daughter, came over.

Before they sat down, a servant came up to them and greeted them.

The servant said to Su Xuan, "Second Miss Su, His Royal Highness Prince Jing has ordered that when you come here, let me take you to His Royal Highness Prince Jing. His Royal Highness Prince Jing said that the Second Miss should sit next to His Royal Highness Prince Jing at the birthday banquet today."

Seeing this, Zhu also smiled brightly, "Xuan'er, you go first."

"Yes, mother." Su Xuan smiled happily, as if all the depression she had felt before had disappeared. She was very satisfied and glanced at Su Huan with a proud look on her face. She just wanted to tell Su Huan that she was the Princess Consort chosen by His Royal Highness Prince Jing, and no one could replace her.

Su Huan didn't take Su Xuan's provocation seriously at all. Whether she could secure the position of Princess Jing was another matter. But it was just a seating arrangement, and it was ridiculous to take it seriously.

Seeing Su Huan's nonchalant look, Su Xuan felt like she was punching cotton. What she was so proud of was nothing but dust in Su Huan's eyes. She couldn't help but clench the handkerchief in her hand.

Just as Su Xuan was about to turn around and follow the servant inside, suddenly, a voice came into her ears from behind, stopping her steps.

Zhu also looked over and saw that the person coming was Prince Ning, Mo Qianhan, who was sitting in a wheelchair.

"It's good that Miss Su is here. It's time for Miss Su and I to take our seats together."

Mo Qianhan sat in a wheelchair and slowly pushed closer. He looked at Su Huan and said with a smile, "Miss Su and I have been granted marriage by the Emperor. We should sit together at the birthday banquet today to show our closeness."

Su Huan agreed with a smile and said "OK". She ignored Zhu and Su Xuan and went in with Mo Qianhan.

Su Xuan looked at Su Huan's back as she walked in and stamped her feet in anger.

Zhu patted Su Xuan's shoulder gently, "Xuan'er, it's time for you to go in."

Su Xuan met her mother's eyes and the various hints in them told her to remain calm. Everything would be over after today. There was no need for her to worry about a dead man.

Here.

Su Huan followed Mo Qianhan towards his seat.

All the tables during the banquet were filled with various delicacies, fresh fruits and fine wines.

It has to be said that the birthday banquet for Princess Zhaohua, the current emperor's aunt, was truly extraordinary.

"Ms. Su, please sit down." Mo Qianhan looked at Su Huan and said, "Was it a coincidence that I arrived just now?"

"What a coincidence, just like timely rain." Su Huan sat down and followed Mo Qianhan's words.

Mo Qianhan's lips curled up into a smile, "I heard that Chu Rou went to look for you guys. It seems that a good show has already been staged before."

Su Huan's eyes fell on Mo Qianhan, and she asked directly without hiding anything, "Does the prince know what Princess Changle is thinking? Or does everyone know?"

Mo Qianhan: "You said she likes Mo Jingyao?"

Su Huan nodded.

Mo Qianhan: "They have been good friends since they were young, and Chu Rou is also very attached to Mo Jingyao. To others, they are cousins ​​with a very good relationship."

Su Huan: "I see." From what Mo Qianhan said, it seemed that Mo Jingyao had no such thoughts, and it was Princess Changle who was wishful thinking.

Mo Qianhan: "Miss Su wants Chu Rou to join in the 'good show' between your sister and Mo Jingyao?"

Su Huan: "Your Highness, you are joking. I don't think I need to think about this."

Mo Qianhan: “That’s right.”

Then, Su Huan said, "Speaking of which, Princess Changle is closer to Prince Jing, and the elder Princess Zhaohua is probably more inclined towards them, but this is not the cause, but the result."

Mo Qianhan stared at the person beside him, "Miss Su, you hit the nail on the head. The emperor is my father's eldest son, and Mo Jingyao is also my father's eldest son. In addition, when the queen mother was the queen, she had a good relationship with my aunt."

Su Huan: "I see. Actually, it's nothing. The prince doesn't need to rely on the Grand Princess anyway, right?"

Mo Qianhan smiled at Su Huan and said, "Every time I talk to Miss Su, I always hear some unexpected words. It's very interesting."

Su Huan just smiled back.

At the same time, the people sitting opposite them were Mo Jingyao and Su Xuan.

Mo Jingyao held a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp, but his eyes were fixed on Su Huan opposite him, who was graceful and beautiful, as light as a green lotus.

It's not the kind of stunning beauty that amazes you at first sight, but the more you look at it and appreciate it, the more you can feel its difference.

Damn it, instead of humiliating that disabled loser Mo Qianhan, he took the opportunity to pick up a treasure.

Su Xuan sat on the sidelines, looking at Su Huan and Prince Ning sitting opposite them, talking and laughing. Even though she knew that her mother had made all the arrangements and would get rid of Su Huan, the thorn in her side, today, she still felt unhappy just by looking at that little bitch Su Huan looking happy.

She withdrew her gaze and fixed her eyes on the person beside her, and discovered that the direction of His Royal Highness Prince Jing's attention was actually towards Su Huan. At this moment, she almost tore the handkerchief in her hand into pieces.

She remained calm and called out "Your Majesty" in a very soft voice.

Mo Jingyao came back to his senses and turned to smile lovingly at the person next to him.

Coincidentally, the loud voice of the message outside came in.

"Grand Princess Zhaohua has arrived!"

Then, everyone stood up and waited until Princess Zhaohua sat down in the main seat in the middle. Everyone bowed respectfully to the person sitting in the upper seat.

"I wish the Grand Princess a long life of happiness and good health."

Su Huan raised her eyes and took a quick look. Princess Zhaohua was wearing an elegant palace dress, with her eyebrows slightly raised. Although she was over forty years old, she was still well maintained, and there was not even a wrinkle around the corners of her eyes.

The aura he exudes shows that he is not a gentle person who can be easily dealt with.

The Princess Changle was now following him obediently, completely devoid of the haughty and overbearing side she had shown in front of everyone in the pavilion in the backyard.

Princess Zhaohua glanced around and said in a serious tone, "Please don't be polite, there are two more distinguished guests coming today. Please wait for a moment."

Before he finished speaking, a deep voice came from outside.

"Aunt, you are too kind. Today is your birthday. The Queen and I are here as your nephew and niece-in-law to celebrate your birthday."

Suddenly, two people walked in.

Although the two were only wearing ordinary clothes, the nine-clawed dragon pattern on the man's clothes, the nine-tailed phoenix pattern on the woman's clothes, and the nine-tailed phoenix hairpin in their hair all demonstrated their status.

These two people are none other than the current emperor—Mo Lingtian.

The person next to her is the current queen, the granddaughter of Grand Tutor Yan, and the eldest daughter of the Yan family - Yan Wan.

Seeing this, everyone at the table knelt down and kowtowed in unison.

"May the Emperor be blessed with good health, and may the Empress be well and happy."
