The British Duke frowned and glanced at Sun Ningxue, and finally sighed heavily.
In the end, it was Chu Wei who issued the decree, and the matter was finally settled.
Things went as expected, and the expression on Queen Mother Xie's face finally softened. After holding Sun Ningxue's hand and talking for a while, she thought it was late at night and wanted to go back to rest, and left with Concubine Xie gracefully.
In her opinion, all this today is just a farce. As long as it can be guaranteed that the British Duke's daughter is Chu Kuo's true concubine, it doesn't matter what Chu Kuo really and Zhang Qingcha did?
After all, once tonight is over, Chu Lan doesn't have much time left to live.
Looking at the triumphant back of Queen Mother Xie, Zhang Qingjiu raised the corner of his mouth, put his two fingers together and pinched the white jade bracelet in his arms.
Using someone else's birthday party as a stage for yourself, there is no such cheap thing in the world.
The Eighth Prince's affair came to an end, and shortly after the Queen Mother and the Concubine left the table, Chu Wei also stood up with a smile, left with the words "Your Majesty, please do as you wish" and left with the Queen.
Seeing that His Majesty had all left, the ministers looked much more relaxed, but they also knew that such a situation had arisen tonight, and they were afraid that staying any longer would cause trouble for His Highness the Crown Prince.
After drinking for three rounds, everyone started to stand up and say goodbye to Chu Lan.
Looking at Chu Lan who was entangled by the ministers, Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes, stood up and walked in the direction of the female family members. Halfway there, he was suddenly stopped by a tall figure.
"Master Xiao Zhang?" His peach blossom eyes flashed. Chu Xun looked at the woman in front of him who was only twenty-eight years old but was as beautiful as a flower. A trace of sadness flashed deep in his eyes.
It's like he's looking at her, but he doesn't seem to be looking at her anymore.
"Prince Jing." Zhang Qingjiu paused and nodded towards him.
Chu Xun was slightly startled, and was about to say something, when his eyes caught sight of the figure hurriedly coming behind her, the smile on his face was slightly startled, he said "You're fine" and turned around to leave.
Looking at the back of the person in front of him, Zhang Qingjiu smiled softly and said, "You are also very good."
After saying that, Zhang Qingjiu turned around and grabbed Chu Feng who was coming over, "Mother, please go back alone tonight."
After saying that, he turned around and glanced at Zhang Tailiu, who was still drinking and drinking among the crowd. A flash of disdain flashed in his eyes. His beloved daughter was like this, but he could still be so nonchalant.
"Okay..." Although her daughter and she had told him that they had other things to deal with before coming, Chu Feng was still a little uneasy thinking of everything that happened at tonight's banquet.
"It's okay, I'll go see you early tomorrow morning." Zhang Qingjiu noticed her worry and smiled to comfort her.
Chu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, "What about Prince Jing? What did Prince Jing just say to you?"
Although Chu Feng's expression remained calm, there was a hint of anxiety in his tone.
Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes and raised his lips with a smile, "He praised me, and praised you for giving birth to a goddaughter."
"Yes, yes..." Chu Feng was slightly startled.
"Yes, don't worry, mother." After saying that, Zhang Qingjiu flew out of the hall.
"Sir Xiao Zhang!" She had just stepped out and before taking two steps, a figure wearing a blue and white moonlight veil blocked her way.
Why did you poke a stumbling block tonight?
Zhang Qingjiu glanced at her and raised his eyebrows, "If you have anything to say or ask, just go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see me in a few days. I can't do it now and I don't have time."
After saying that, without waiting for the person in front of him to reply, his slender figure instantly blended into the night.
Sun Ningxue's face was anxious and she turned around quickly, but in the dark night, where was this person's figure?
If Murong Chunlai had been here at this moment, he would have discovered that the woman who stole almost half of the attention of the prince's birthday party tonight was the one he saw outside Baihua Pavilion of Zhaixing Tower that day.
