Mrs. Dongyang Bo couldn't tell, her face smiled even more enthusiastically, and she started to say flattering and funny words one after another.
Coupled with the compliments and laughter of other ladies, the chatter became extremely lively for a while.
Xie Yurui, who was holding Zhan Beihan's arm tightly, was undoubtedly the center of adulation. She had a reserved and arrogant smile on her face. She glanced sideways at the man from time to time, and the deep affection in her eyes seemed to overflow.
When everyone saw it, they praised each other: "His Royal Highness and his concubine have such a good relationship..."
"Yes, the talent of the man and the beauty of the woman are enviable."
Mrs. Dongyang Bo took her daughter and said to Xie Yurui with a smile: "Seeing the appearance of the concubine and the prince, one can't help but sigh. The two insignificant daughters of my family have just grown up this year. I am doing this
I only hope that they can get a little bit of the blessings of the concubine, and that they can marry a good husband in the future, and be harmonious and beautiful."
The two girls, fifteen or sixteen years old, immediately blushed, lowered their heads, and peeked at Zhan Beihan coquettishly.
The smile on Xie Yurui's face froze and she narrowed her eyes slightly.
She looked at the two girls with a critical look, and said with a half-smile, "Madam's two daughters are quite charming and charming."
Mrs. Dongyang Bo immediately burst into laughter and quickly complimented: "Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. How can they compare to your beauty, Your Majesty..."
Xie Yurui smiled slightly and said suggestively: "I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Xiang will also come to today's birthday banquet. When the time comes, in front of the noble concubine, Madam, I will ask them to behave well. Maybe... they
Good luck lies ahead."
Mrs. Dongyang Bo's eyes lit up and her face turned red with excitement: "Is it true? I also heard some news and thought it was a misinformation, but after hearing what the empress said...could it be true?
?”
Xie Yurui said angrily: "Of course it's true. Will I still lie to Madam?"
"Oh, this is really...Thank you, Concubine Concubine, for reminding me!" Mrs. Dongyang Bo was overjoyed and grateful.
Several other ladies with their daughters were also full of joy, and their eyes flashed when they looked at the daughters beside them.
The news that Concubine Shu wanted to choose a concubine for Prince Xiang at the birthday party was not a secret.
The ladies from the invited aristocratic families in the capital had all heard the news.
But no one is sure.
Xie Yurui has always been in close contact with Concubine Shu, and I heard they have a good relationship. The news revealed from her mouth is 100% true!
Can these ladies be unhappy?
When the news was still uncertain, they were unwilling to miss the opportunity and took the initiative to bring their daughter of appropriate age for the reason.
Now that they had received accurate information from Xie Yurui's mouth, a group of ladies felt excited, anxious, and even a little impatient.
Concubine Shu ordered someone to spread the word in advance, which was intentional.
If the family is interested in getting married, they will naturally take the initiative to bring their daughter, and Concubine Shu will just choose.
And if someone is unwilling to get married, she will not bring her daughter with her after hearing the news. Concubine Shu will know this at a glance and will not rush to join in the fun.
In this way, the wishes of both parties are obvious, and there is no need to refuse in person if they are unwilling, which can be regarded as saving the face of both parties.
However, there were not many ladies like Mrs. Dongyang who brought two daughters of the same age at home. Most of the noble ladies only brought one daughter, which shows how enthusiastic she is about Prince Xiang's marriage.
Although the threshold for Dongyang Bofu is a bit lower.
But who can say for sure about fate?
Prince Xiang has always been gentle and affectionate, he loves beauty the most, and he is very sympathetic to women.
Many ladies of low status have some illusions in their hearts. Maybe at the banquet, King Xiang will take a fancy to their daughter. By then, it is not impossible to become related to the royal family and reach the sky in one step.
Even if you can't become a main concubine, like Xie Yurui, you can still be a favored concubine! This chapter has been completed!
