"The forest is really big and there are all kinds of birds. If His Highness King Dingbei would take one more look at her, I would immediately walk upside down. It's just a fantasy!"
Listening to the cynicism of these people, Liu Xiang was very angry and wanted to step forward to attack these people.
However, there were people who moved faster than her. She saw Mingyu clenching a fist as big as a sandbag and waving it menacingly in front of these people, "If you have the ability, come to me and say it loudly and try!"
Yan Mingzhu did not expect that Mingyu would stand up and speak for her, although she did not take these people's sarcastic remarks seriously.
But seeing that my niece would stand up without hesitation even though she didn't know her true identity, I just felt warm in my heart.
These female relatives immediately did not dare to say another word. Others dared to retaliate, but this person was the direct daughter of the Ming family, and she had a high position in the Mingzuo family. She was not something that a small family like them could afford to offend.
Seeing these people, she instantly withered. Mingyu took a step forward and naturally took Yan Mingzhu's arm, "Miss Yan San, you are here anyway. It won't be too late to get back the dowry after attending the banquet. Don't worry.
, if the Pei family dares to cheat, I will let my eldest brother make the decision for you!"
Yan Mingzhu was amused by Mingyu's words. Although she could not recognize the Ming family yet, the hard-won warmth now made her reluctant to leave immediately.
Seeing that Yan Mingzhu agreed, Mingyu enthusiastically pulled her to sit together.
Just at this time, Qi Jue walked up to Princess Anyang and gave a junior salute, "My nephew is late, I wish my aunt a long life."
Princess Anyang smiled and said: "Jue'er, you are busy with everything, so you don't have to be there in person. My aunt is also very happy to see what she wants. Please take a seat quickly."
Qi Jue was the last one to arrive, so when he took his seat, the banquet officially started.
As the only daughter of Princess Anyang, Ning Zhenbao was naturally the first to give her a gift.
"Mother, my daughter has prepared a special gift for you. I hope you like it!"
At this time, I saw a maid carrying a gold cage to the center. In the gold cage, there was a cockatiel.
The beautiful feathers tend to be light gray, with orange cheeks, a golden crest on the head, large white feather spots all over the wings, and a petite and cute figure.
The maid opened the birdcage and saw Ning Zhenbao whistle, and the cockatiel immediately flapped its wings and flew towards Princess Anyang.
Princess Anyang stretched out a hand, and the parrot landed firmly on the back of her hand. She opened her beak and said, "Your Highness, the princess, may you live forever and be beautiful forever!"
These days, even parrots can flatter themselves, and Princess Anyang was so amused that she burst into laughter.
"Bao'er, did you teach me this?"
Ning Zhenbao hugged her arm affectionately, nodded, and said with a smile: "My daughter has been taught for a long time. She was afraid that her mother would find out in advance. She got up in the middle of the night to teach her. Look at the dark bags under her eyes.
I made it by teaching a parrot to talk!"
Princess Anyang held her face very cooperatively and touched her temples distressedly, "My baby is really thoughtful. My mother likes this gift very much."
After receiving her mother's approval, Ning Zhenbao happily acted coquettishly in her arms, "Oh, by the way, mother, the third girl of the Yan family has contributed a lot to my daughter being able to present this gift today."
Princess Anyang raised her eyebrows curiously, "Oh, what's going on?"
"When I woke up early this morning, I didn't know why. This parrot was drooping and couldn't cheer up. When the banquet was approaching, it suddenly fell down in the birdcage and rolled its eyes.
My daughter was so anxious that she called the doctor in the mansion to see her, but the doctor was helpless, so she asked her maid to go out and find a veterinarian, but it was Miss Yan San who came."
At that time, Ning Zhenbao was so anxious that he trained a parrot to say congratulatory words to make Princess Anyang happy. Ning Zhenbao had been planning for a long time.
If the parrot just kicked off its legs and died, then all her efforts would be in vain.
So when the maid led Yan Mingzhu through the door, Ning Zhenbao saw that it was a girl about the same age as her and immediately became angry.
"I asked you to go to the veterinarian. Why did you bring me a girl in?"
The maid hurriedly knelt on the ground, and Yan Mingzhu stepped forward without haste and said: "I met Princess Changle. I heard that the princess's parrot was sick, so she volunteered to give it a try."
Ning Zhenbao looked her up and down with disbelief in his eyes, "You know how to heal? I've said it before, if my parrot is killed by you, you will be buried with it. How about it? You still dare to treat it?"
?”
Yan Mingzhu did not answer, but stepped forward directly, reached out and picked up the parrot and placed it in the palm of her hand.
First I pressed its bulging belly, and then touched its throat.
When Ning Zhenbao found her behavior extremely strange, she suddenly grabbed the parrot's claws and turned it upside down.
Then she threw it up hard. Ning Zhenbao was startled by her sudden behavior and shouted: "You are brave, let it go quickly..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, there was a click and something flew out of the parrot's mouth.
When Yan Mingzhu put the parrot in the birdcage again, the parrot that had been lying on it and rolling its eyes suddenly started jumping alive again!
Ning Zhenbao was extremely surprised, "How did you cure it just now?"
Yan Mingzhu pointed to a fruit shell on the ground and said: "The parrot was greedy and ate a fruit that was bigger than its throat. The fruit shell got stuck in its throat, and it couldn't breathe, so it suffocated and almost died."
The parrot came back to life again. Ning Zhenbao was very happy and took the initiative to hold Yan Mingzhu's hand, "You are so awesome. You did me a big favor today. What is your name? You saved my parrot. I can help you."
One thing, whatever you want to mention, gold, silver and jewelry are not a problem!"
"Yongyi Marquis Mansion, Yan Mingzhu, the parrot who saved the princess is just a small effort, not worth mentioning. However, my daughter is indeed encountering a difficult matter now, and I would like to ask the princess to do a small favor."
Ning Zhenbao thought Yan Mingzhu was asking for some treasure, but she didn't expect that she just wanted to attend the eldest princess's mansion as a guest for her birthday.
Hearing this, Princess Anyang couldn't help but look at Yan Mingzhu who was sitting at the guest table, and her eyes were a little more appreciative.
"She is a unique woman. I misunderstood her before."
Qi Jue was very close, so he naturally heard what Ning Zhenbao said to Princess Anyang.
Qi Jue was indeed a little surprised when he saw Yan Mingzhu appearing in the eldest princess's mansion.
But when he saw Pei Duqin and the others again, he understood.
The Pei family suffered a loss a few days ago and suffered a serious setback, which was so embarrassing that the entire imperial capital knew about it.
How could he easily return the dowry to Yan Mingzhu? I'm afraid he wanted to take this opportunity to torture her severely!
