Chapter 98 Fighting for the Wind

When they arrived at the palace, in order to avoid suspicion, Feng Xuche asked the palace maid to take Yue Ya to the banquet place, while he went to Cining Palace alone to meet the Queen Mother.

This was Yue Ya's first time entering the palace. The palace was decorated with lights and colorful decorations. Guards were patrolling back and forth in neat steps. There were also many palace maids and eunuchs who were anxiously walking back and forth preparing things for the banquet.

Yue Ya was led in cautiously by the palace maid.

The banquet was held in Huayang Palace next to the Imperial Garden. It was a peach banquet held by the Queen Mother every year. There was a peach blossom forest in the harem. The peach trees planted in it were all rare varieties imported from various countries. There were more than a hundred peach trees.

.

Those peaches are not only juicy but also extremely sweet. In the spring, peach blossoms are all over the world. When the peach blossoms are gone, the peaches will pop up. They are at their peak in June and July.

Yue Ya's eyes all fell on the palace maids who came in with peaches. It was a bit eye-opening. The skin of these peaches is really good, but I don't know how they taste?

"Miss Yue Ya, the seats inside are all arranged according to the seats of each palace and house. You must not sit in the wrong place. The corners are the seats without assigned seats. There are many people in the palace and you may accidentally sit there.

I'm going to lose my head."

The palace maid reminded her kindly. After Yue Ya thanked her, she walked directly in and found an inconspicuous place to sit down.

Three groups of two girls from various mansions were dressed in fancy clothes and chatting without paying any attention to Yue Ya in the corner.

Those who don't know must think that this is just a banquet where they just eat peaches and watch them picking peaches, but those who know the inside story will know that the Queen Mother has good intentions.

This is a blind date banquet specially prepared for her grandnephews.

If there is a girl you like, the princes of each palace will choose the best flat peach and give it to the girl personally. If the girls like the man, they will eat the peach in front of him. If not, they will find reasons to refuse. This is

It also avoids the embarrassment of rejection.

Yue Ya didn't know it had this meaning, and she thought that after finally entering the palace, she would have to bring back a few flat peaches for Yi'er, Chun'er, and grandma to taste.

With a drake's voice, "The Queen Mother is here!"

This sound instantly silenced the noisy Huayang Palace, and everyone moved out of the way and knelt down.

"The Queen Mother is a thousand years old."

Yue Ya also knelt down. She didn't dare to raise her head until the Queen Mother spoke, "Everyone, please stand up. Today is a family banquet. There is no need to be restrained. You can eat and drink as you should. We all just want to be happy today."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Yue Ya stood up with everyone, and then she saw several princes sitting down one after another. She didn't recognize any of them except Feng Xuche. After all, the third prince had always been wearing a mask when she saw her before. Today, she didn't wear a mask, so she couldn't recognize him at all now.

who is it.

She looked around the princes until she felt an unkind gaze. She was frightened by Feng Xuche. She cursed in her heart that there was something wrong with this man. He always looked at her, as if she owed him a lot of money.

Similar.

The Queen Mother hurriedly lowered her head and sat down in her seat, and said: "The banquet is about to begin. Princes from all palaces must remember the purpose of coming here tonight!"

"It's Grandma Huang."

"Little plum, let's start!"

After the eunuch answered respectfully, he called the ladies from various houses to come up and perform their talents.

Yue Ya raised her head and looked at the kind face of the Queen Mother, and couldn't help but sigh to herself, she was indeed the Queen Mother, her skin was so well maintained, if it weren't for the few white hairs on her head, she would have thought she was someone of the same age as Xiao's mother.

However, there were six princes above and one was the prince Jinse. Yue Ya was thinking that the third prince was the one next to Feng Xuche. She looked over quietly and couldn't help being surprised. These three princes were worthy of being tied with Feng Xuche as the two most beautiful men in the capital.

The person is indeed very good-looking, and his whole body exudes a warm aura, compared to Feng Xuche.

From cold to warm, Yue Ya didn't understand the purpose of letting her come to the banquet, and was absent-minded along the way.

Her small movements naturally did not escape Feng Xuche's eyes. Inexplicably because her eyes lingered on the third prince, he felt uncomfortable and took a sip of wine.

Just then, a mocking voice sounded in my ears: "Why are you here?"

Yue Ya raised her head and met Jiang Jing's gaze. She immediately screamed something bad. She really didn't expect Jiang Jing to be here tonight. It's not surprising to think about it this way. After all, Jiang Jing is also an unmarried woman and the daughter of a general.

, naturally you should attend this kind of banquet.

Jiang Jing's voice was loud and attracted the attention of many people who were watching the talent. Even the Queen Mother looked over.

Yue Ya said calmly: "Miss Jiang, someone invited me to the banquet."

"As for you, a divorced person, who would be willing to invite you? Do you know the true purpose of this banquet?"

"Peach feast!"

"Country bumpkin, one look at you and I wouldn't know that someone like you is not suitable to attend this kind of banquet."

"Then why do you think I'm not suitable?"

"As a divorced person with no family background and still living in your ex-husband's house, how can you have the nerve to attend a palace banquet?"

Yue Ya smiled, "I neither stole nor robbed, and I divorced someone else, why am I not qualified to attend the banquet? What's more, the Xiao family owes me a debt, what's the problem if I live in the Xiao family? The Xiao family doesn't have any objections.

, do you, an outsider, have any opinions? Those who don’t know better think that I eat and live in your Jiang family."

"you!"

Feng Xuche's eyes were slightly cold and his expression was still indifferent. He did not speak. With his understanding of Yue Ya, she would definitely surprise him.

The ladies nearby were whispering, and someone asked curiously: "Jiang Jing, who is this woman? Why have we never seen her before?"

"Yes! It's quite beautiful. I don't know which house it belongs to."

Jiang Jing laughed and said, "She is Yue Ya, Mrs. Xiao Jingyan, the divorced person from Xiao Mansion."

"It turns out it's her. It's amazing. This kind of person can only dream of becoming a relative of the emperor."

"Who says it's not the case? The prince's noble status is beyond her imagination. What's more, he has been slept with. Who wouldn't mind being dirty?"

"I don't know who brought this kind of person in. It's really in poor taste."

Yue Ya smiled instead of getting angry, and she said calmly: "Then you have to ask the third prince."

As soon as he said this, the third prince, who had always been unimportant and didn't like these jealousy tricks, also looked at Yue Ya with interest, while Feng Xuche remained expressionless.

"What? Third prince."
