Seeing Ye Xiyue and Jingchuan walking out side by side, a dark light flashed in Xiao Yushan's eyes, and it disappeared in an instant.
Then, she stepped forward with a smile.
"I've waited for you."
Ye Xiyue didn't want to pay much attention to her at first, but looking at her attitude, it seemed that she really had something to say.
She laughed and asked:
"The fourth princess is waiting for us?"
Xiao Yushan nodded: "I have something I want to discuss with you, Xiyue."
"Fourth Princess, please speak."
"It's like this. In a few days, it will be my father's birthday. I wonder if you have received the invitation?"
Ye Xiyue looked at her in surprise:
"That's not true. Why does the Fourth Princess ask this?"
Xiao Yushan pursed her lips and smiled, took out two invitations and handed them over.
"It just so happens that I have two more places here, and I would like to invite you to come over."
Her chin was slightly raised, her posture was dignified.
However, Ye Xiyue did not go to accept the invitation.
"us?"
She raised her eyebrows slightly.
The only ones standing here were her and Jingchuan.
Of these two invitations, one is for her, and the other...could it be that it's for Jingchuan?
As if to verify her idea, Xiao Yushan then explained:
"Yes. You two are both students recruited by Nanshan College under special circumstances. You are the most popular people in the imperial capital today. My father will definitely be very happy to see you."
Ye Xiyue smiled:
"Aren't the invitations to His Majesty's birthday party distributed half a month in advance? Now, there are only the last three days left. Isn't it inappropriate to suddenly add people?"
Xiao Yushan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:
"That batch of invitations has indeed been sent out, but I already have extra places here, so——"
This was said tactfully and straightforwardly.
It's almost as if he didn't directly say that he was deeply favored by His Majesty.
His Majesty's birthday banquet is very important and grand. Logically speaking, everyone participating in this birthday banquet must undergo strict review. It is absolutely impossible for anyone to get more places.
But by chance, Xiao Yushan had two more invitations in her hand.
How much does His Majesty trust and love her to do this?
I am afraid that other princes and princesses do not have this privilege.
But the word "superfluous" sounded a bit harsh to Ye Xiyue's ears.
She curled her lips, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.
"Thank you to the fourth princess for your kindness, but I think we should forget about this matter. Xiyue rarely attended such occasions before, so if she went there so rashly, it would be bad if she did something wrong and offended her."
Xiao Yushan was stunned immediately.
Does Ye Xiyue know what she is talking about?
How many people asked for an opportunity that they couldn't get, but she refused it outright and outright?
No one picked up the invitations I handed out, and the atmosphere gradually became a little awkward.
Xiao Yushan couldn't help but ask:
"You really don't want to go?"
Ye Xiyue nodded calmly.
There is nothing good to go to. The original owner has not been there much in the past ten years.
Besides, Xiao Yushan was not familiar with them, so there was no reason to do this suddenly.
"you--"
Ye Xiyue's answer was so straightforward that Xiao Yushan didn't know what to answer for a while.
She never expected that someone would refuse her invitation to a palace banquet.
"If the fourth princess has nothing else to do, we will leave first."
Ye Xiyue was too lazy to waste time with her and planned to leave immediately.
Xiao Yushan pursed her lips, her face turning red and white.
For so many years, anyone who saw her would respectfully call her "Fourth Princess" and try to please her in every possible way.
