Yuan Qianqian glanced at the old man with clear eyes that revealed wisdom, and thought that he might just come to say a few auspicious words to ask for money.

"Xi Qiu, give this master one tael of silver."

Xi Qiu is usually very stingy, but she liked what this person said today, so she happily handed over one or two taels of silver to the person in front of her.

"Thank you, Master."

The old man put the silver away and walked away with a smile, which made Yuan Qianqian more certain of his previous thoughts.

When Yuan Qianqian returned to the temple's meditation room, Yuan Yingtang was still resting.

On this day, Yuan Yingtang ignored Yuan Qianqian all day, but Yuan Qianqian was happy and at ease.

After playing with the two princesses of the Yuan Dynasty for a few days, Ruan Yurou saw that they had no communication with each other and knew that the two of them did not get along.

Some families don't even get along with their legitimate daughters and illegitimate daughters! It's not surprising that these two princesses don't get along.

.........

A few days passed in a flash, and it was the first day of June.

"Princess, what are you going to wear today?"

Early in the morning, the maid asked Yuan Yingtang what she was going to wear today.

In the past, at Yuan Dynasty banquets, princesses wore luxurious and extravagant clothes in order to outshine the other girls.

They didn't dare to make decisions for the princess. If she failed to win, they, the ones who made the decision, would be punished.

It’s better to let the princess choose for herself.

"Just wear that red palace dress." She had specially prepared that dress for attending the Dashang Palace Banquet.

She had heard in the past few days that people from several countries had brought princesses here, and their intentions were the same as those of the Yuan Dynasty.

Today her makeup, hair and outfit must stand out, and she cannot be outdone by those people from small countries.

The maids dressed her up as she requested.

"The eyebrows are not good, they are too thick."

"The lip balm isn't red enough, change it."

"Idiot, look at the makeup you put on, reapply it, or you can't keep your hands if it doesn't turn out well."

"Comb the hair here up."

"This hairpin doesn't work. It's too petty. Change it."

It took two hours in total, and it was not until lunch time that she was finally satisfied.

The maid who helped her dress up felt like her hands were about to break.

Yuan Yingtang had always had a lot of trouble dressing up in the past, but never as much as today.

The banquet officially began at the beginning of the Shen time.

After lunch, Yuan Anchen sent someone to inform Yuan Yingtang and Yuan Qianqian to prepare to enter the palace.

The post station is quite far from the palace, and it takes about half an hour to walk there.

When Yuan Yingtang came out, Yuan Qianqian had already got on the carriage. She originally wanted to see how Yuan Qianqian was dressed today, but gave up when she saw her get on the carriage.

The carriage swayed and when it arrived at the palace gate, there were already many carriages parked there.

When Yuan Yingtang saw Yuan Qianqian who had already got off the carriage, he paused and a trace of anger appeared on his exquisitely dressed face.

Today she was wearing a blue dress embroidered with gold thread, looking more exquisitely dressed than ever before. With her pretty face, she looked like a lotus emerging from water.

Yuan Anchen noticed that Yuan Yingtang's mood had worsened and looked in the direction she was looking.

He knew that the imperial sister hated people who were prettier than her the most. In the past, Yuan Qianqian looked good even when she didn't dress up much.

The way she dressed up today only highlighted her outstanding appearance.

This is what he ordered people to dress up.

I heard that Queen Shang Yue is quite beautiful, and I can’t let Princess Yuan Qianqian be outdone by her.

Besides, if a princess of a country still dresses the same way as before, anyone can tell that she is not favored.

He approached Yuan Yingtang and reminded him in a low voice: "Tangtang, we are at the palace gate. Control your expression."

Yuan Yingtang came back to his senses and suppressed the jealousy in his heart.

They got on the sedan chair specially set up for reception at the palace gate and arrived at Changqiu Palace where the banquet was held.

At this time, people from many countries and ministers of the Shang Dynasty had arrived. When they saw Yuan Anchen and his companions, they hurriedly stood up to greet them.

These envoys were all from small countries. They were not as powerful as the Yuan Dynasty and did not dare to treat the Prince Duan of the Yuan Dynasty with disrespect.

The positions of various countries are arranged according to their national strength.

Da Yuan's position is naturally at the front left of the main seat.

Yuan Anchen was dressed in a crimson brocade robe with rich gold embroidery. He had an extraordinary aura and outstanding appearance. Several princesses looked at him with ambiguous glances in their eyes.

Yuan Anchen, who always loved beautiful women, naturally saw it.

These princesses are basically the most beautiful princesses in each country, and several of them are absolutely stunning.

Some are as cool and pure as fairies, some are as gorgeous as peonies, and some are as charming as foxes.

His eyes swept over them one by one, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

Yuan Qianqian didn't dare to look around. She quietly sat in her seat under the guidance of the palace maid.

Compared with Yuan Anchen's good mood, Yuan Yingtang's mood has reached the bottom.

Today she was so dressed up that she was outshined by princesses from several countries.

Although the princess from the Western Regions wore a veil, her exposed eyes were deep and charming, with a hint of blue. It was hard to imagine how charming the face beneath the veil was.

Many people looked towards her.

Even Yuan Anchen's gaze seemed to be seduced by her.

Very few eyes were paid attention to Yuan Yingtang, and it was not because they were attracted by her appearance, but because they heard that she caused trouble in Yuelai Inn the day after she arrived.

Yuan Yingtang bit her lip and cast a jealous look at Paridan.

Shang Yuan sat in his seat and talked with several people. Today, he was wearing a purple robe and a seductive face, looking more "beautiful" than many women.

Perhaps it was because of Shang Yue's pursuit and blockade in recent years that there was a heavy gloom on his face.

He looked at the arrogant person opposite him.

As soon as Yuan Anchen arrived in Kyoto, he wanted to see her. Unfortunately, this Prince Duan was, as the legend goes, a womanizer.

After receiving the two dancers from the prime minister, he never even stepped out of the post station, so there was no way he could meet them by chance.

I was afraid that my brother the emperor would become suspicious, and I couldn't visit him at the post station openly.

Looking at Yuan Anchen, who was surrounded by people with a proud look on his face, his eyes flashed and he picked up the wine glass on the table.

She stopped in front of Yuan Anchen's desk, her curved face looked even more charming, "Prince Duan, I have heard a lot about you."

Yuan Anchen took a look at Shang Yuan's position and combined with his appearance, he easily guessed his identity.

"King Chen of the Great Shang Dynasty, I have long admired you."

He raised his eyebrows, with a gleam in his eyes. He picked up the white jade cup filled with wine, clinked it with Yuan Anchen, and drank it all in one gulp.

The two outstanding men with different styles together instantly attracted a lot of attention.

Yuan Yingtang looked at this man who was more beautiful than the woman, with skin as white as jade, phoenix eyes, and bright red lips, and felt a little envious.

If only she looked like this.

She didn't deny that Shang Yuan was good-looking, but she didn't like that kind of man. She liked men who looked more resolute.

Shang Yuan and Yuan Anchen talked for a while, each of them tested the other, and then returned to their seats.
