On the second night, Emperor Hui hosted a banquet in the palace to entertain Tashi and Princess Manyue of the Desert, and cleanse them up.
There were also princes and young ladies from aristocratic families attending the banquet. Mu Changan was not qualified to go, but because she was the future Princess Rui and was deeply loved by the imperial concubine, she also entered the palace to attend the banquet.
She was dressed festively in a peach red dress, and with the powder on her face, she stood out among all the young ladies from aristocratic families, and people could notice it at a glance, while everyone else was reduced to a foil.
Ling Jiaoyu on the side was very jealous. She was not as good-looking as Mu Changan. She was sitting next to Mu Changan, and she was completely covered by Mu Changan. Those amazing eyes all stayed on Mu Changan.
Mu Chang'an frequently flirted with Ye Jingrong who was on the opposite side. Although the two didn't say anything, they could see each other through each other's eyes. Silence is better than sound, which can be regarded as the tacit understanding between the two.
Mu Changan was holding the wine glass, and during the whole banquet, she seemed to be able to only see the night scenery, the corners of her mouth were always raised, and even the wine in her hand became extraordinarily fragrant.
Witnessing all this, Ling Chuci couldn't help but feel a sense of embarrassment in his heart. In ten days, Mu Changan will officially marry Ye Jingrong. The closer this day gets, the more melancholy he feels. When she marries into Prince Rui's mansion, He also had no way to see Mu Changan all the time.
The atmosphere of the banquet was very good, and Mu Changan finally got a clear view of Man Yue's appearance. She looks very majestic, with very fair skin. Although she is not stunning, she is definitely an above-average beauty.
It can be seen that this princess is very favored, and Tashi also takes good care of this younger sister, constantly whispering this to Manyue, and even taking the food in front of her to Manyue.
Man Yue suddenly stood up and toasted Emperor Hui with a generous smile, "My Majesty, I toast you."
After Manyue finished speaking, she drank it down, then put down the wine glass in her hand, and continued, "I have studied the culture of the Central Plains since I was a child, and I am very interested in the Central Plains. This time, Father Khan asked me to accompany my brother to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday. I also want to take this opportunity. I have a good relationship with Nan Jin and Qin Jin forever, I wonder if the emperor would like to recognize me as his daughter-in-law?"
Manyue didn't have the shyness of a boudoir girl in the Southern Jin Dynasty. She had a bold temperament on her body, and she spoke very directly, and she said it generously, without any timidity.
Emperor Hui laughed, "That's what I wish for. All my sons are here today. I wonder whose princess the princess wants to be?"
Manyue looked around, Mu Changan's heart tightened, and he was no longer in the mood to drink. He just hoped that Manyue would not be picky about the night scenery, and concentrated on waiting for Manyue to continue talking.
It's just that things are still developing towards the worst side, Man Yue's gaze rests on Ye Jingrong, with a shy look on her face, "Your Majesty, I would like to marry His Highness Prince Rui as his wife."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, no one spoke, the scene was quiet, everyone knew about the engagement between Ye Jingrong and Mu Changan, and they were going to get married soon.
Mu Chang'an only felt that his mind was blank. She actually chose Ye Jingrong. Although he was the most handsome among the princes, this princess didn't have to look at her face like that! Knowing that they have a marriage contract, why does she want two maids and one husband
"Manyue, your vision is very good, His Highness Prince Rui is very suitable for you."
Tashi on the side said.
Mu Changan glared at the two of them fiercely. He really didn't know how they got the idea that they were a good match, but they were clearly unsuitable.
Emperor Hui didn't respond immediately, his expression flickered, and he soon returned to normal, but the imperial concubine was a little anxious, the desert was a barren place in her eyes, so she didn't like the princess of the desert, the two concubines side by side, At that time, I still don't know what will happen.
Mu Changan wanted to speak very much. Seeing so many people present and her own identity, she endured and endured. Finally, Ye Jingrong got up, very calmly, and said unhurriedly, "Thank you Princess Manyue for your great love. , but this king already has a fiancée, ten days later, this king will marry her, and I hope that Princess Manyue will choose someone else."
Man Yue didn't mind, "I already knew that His Highness Prince Rui already has a fiancée, and Da Mo has a custom of marrying two wives, I don't care."
