Seeing that the time was almost up, Yu Caiwei and the Sixth Princess went together.

The two of them walked together, one in front and one behind, and it looked like a picture scroll.

Melodious music sounded in the lotus pond. Yu Caiwei walked forward and knelt down to pay her respects. "Your Highness, the Queen, and His Royal Highness, the Prince of Guangping."

How could the Prince of Guangping be here? The Empress had two princesses and two princes, one of whom was the current crown prince, and the other was stationed at the frontier. The Prince of Guangping was born to the Imperial Concubine, and it was strange that he had such a good relationship with the Empress.

I think there must be something fishy going on here.

"Get up." The queen said, and Yu Caiwei immediately stood up and sat down next to the Sixth Princess.

There were only a few of them at the banquet today. Prince Guangping was not born to the Queen, but he must have a close relationship with the Queen since he could attend such a banquet.

Yu Caiwei was a little surprised. These three people represented different forces in the palace. Compared to them, she seemed to be nothing.

She was just a member of the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, so she should act according to circumstances and deal with it perfunctorily for now.

"I wonder how the Crown Prince's wife's Shu Jinxiu teaching is going?"

As expected, the first word he spoke was directed at her.

Yu Caiwei immediately stood up and replied, following the rules and etiquette very well.

A smile appeared in the queen's eyes. She didn't expect that the prince's wife came from a poor family, but she did quite well in etiquette and education.

The Yu family was not considered an aristocratic family, but rather a poor clan. At the beginning, this marriage almost became a joke in their eyes.

The Dingyuan Marquis family has made great contributions for generations, and Xiao Cheng has made even greater achievements. He was favored by the emperor, but chose the inferior Yu family for marriage.

"Her Highness the Sixth Princess is very talented and has learned a lot."

She turned her head to look at the Sixth Princess and smiled at her. This little girl was even funny.

Upon seeing this, Nanny Shang immediately walked over to the Queen and leaned over to whisper in her ear.

The person who made the complaint was very straightforward and he did it right in front of her.

"Come here, let your mother see your hand." The queen's eyes showed worry, and the Sixth Princess immediately walked up to her and stretched out her hand.

There was nothing unusual about the fingers, except that the fingertips were a little red and felt soft, as if they had blisters.

"Mother, I did it myself. It has nothing to do with others." The Sixth Princess immediately interrupted the Queen.

The Queen's eyes fell on Yu Caiwei. Even if she wanted to blame her, she couldn't.

"Be careful in everything you do. Mother will be sad if you get your fingers scratched."

The Sixth Princess nodded immediately and then returned to her seat.

"Mother, I heard that the Crown Prince's Consort plays the zither very well. Why not let her play a piece for us?"

This Prince Guangping! Is he crazy?

Yu Caiwei's face darkened a little. She had been embarrassed by Prince Guangping many times before, and now he was embarrassing her again in front of the Queen.

She is the Crown Prince's consort, not a singer in the palace. Wouldn't this be a slap in Xiao Cheng's face?

That’s right. Xiao Cheng humiliated him last time in the restaurant. Now that she has come to the palace, he will definitely take revenge.

It's true that if you offend someone, you will be unable to move forward, but this Prince Guangping is really a narrow-minded person.

Yu Caiwei's face looked a little bad, so for now she should try to find a way to get through it.

"Empress, I can't play the piano. I wonder how His Royal Highness Prince Guangping knew that I can play the piano." She didn't want to play it, so that people in the palace would not think that she had an affair with Prince Guangping.

This girl has always attached great importance to her reputation, not to mention that Prince Guangping was not included in her plan.

If any bad rumors were to spread about her and Prince Guangping, her life would be over.

Yu Caiwei made up her mind and decided to refuse no matter what Prince Guangping said today.

"Prince Guangping, where did you hear that the Crown Prince's Consort can play the piano?" The Queen spoke slowly. She could see through the secret between the two of them at a glance.

After all, she was an experienced person, and she knew there was something strange between the Crown Princess and Prince Guangping's eyebrows.

“In reply to your Majesty, I was just talking nonsense.” Prince Guangping raised the corner of his mouth, stood up and saluted with his bow.

Bullshit?

The corner of Yu Caiwei's mouth twitched. She wondered how long this petty-minded Prince Guangping would hold a grudge against her.

"Your Highness's nonsense almost made me bear the crime of deception. Your Highness is really broad-minded." Yu Caiwei's tone was a little bad, but she was smiling all the time. In this way, the Queen could not find a reason to blame her even if she wanted to.

"Sister, there are many singing and dancing girls in our palace. Why don't we invite them to perform?" The Sixth Princess spoke up immediately, thus resolving the awkwardness.

Fortunately, the Sixth Princess was there to help her at the banquet, and Yu Caiwei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since you don't know how to play, then ask the musicians to play." The Queen's tone was a little bad. She was of course unhappy that they still had to use her people after such a commotion.

Well, every mother loves her children, not to mention that this sixth princess was born at the risk of her life by the queen.

Now that the little princess has spoken, the queen must satisfy her.

When Prince Guangping heard what the Queen said, he stopped holding on to Yu Caiwei, but his plan failed and he was in a bad mood.

Yu Caiwei didn't eat much at the palace banquet and spent most of the time listening to the musicians playing.

Candles were lit in the room, and Yu Caiwei immediately took out the cakes she had brought from her bag.

Yu Caiwei was indeed a little hungry, but she didn't want to cause trouble, so she decided to eat some of the pastries she had prepared.

"Sister, what are you eating?" A sporadic voice came from outside the door. Yu Caiwei immediately became alert, but when she learned that it was the Sixth Princess, she calmly handed the thing in her hand to her.

"Your Highness, I got this from the Marquis's Mansion." Perhaps the maid in the mansion knew her taste and specially put some of her favorite food in her bag, otherwise she would really starve to death in this palace.

"Sister didn't eat much at the palace banquet. I'll have someone bring her food right away."

Yu Caiwei immediately shook her head. It was the dead of night and it would be embarrassing if it got out.

"If Your Highness really wants me, then listen to me."

The Sixth Princess nodded, not quite understanding. What her sister said made sense, so she would listen to her sister.

"Sister, my brother is coming to see me tomorrow. Can you go with me?" The Sixth Princess held her hand and shook it back and forth. Her adorable look was enough to melt people's hearts.

Royal brother? Which prince?

"It's my brother, the Crown Prince. He's always fierce and I'm a little scared."

Prince?

Aren't they siblings? Why is the Sixth Princess afraid of the Crown Prince?

"Princess, the Queen will punish me if she finds out." Yu Caiwei was a little helpless. This little princess had to take her with her wherever she went. Isn't this obviously asking her to make mistakes?

The prince wants to see the princess, why should she, a minister, follow him?

"Sister, I will protect you. The prince said that I will definitely protect you."

The prince? Could she be talking about Xiao Cheng?
