"What's really like?" Jiang Ruan asked back, "No." Her tone was not as gentle as usual, with a faint chill. Dong Ying'er's heart was thrilled. She thought that Jiang Ruan was angry and did not want to marry the eighth prince, so she said so, "You don't have to worry too much, I guessed it randomly. Maybe the Imperial Concubine just simply likes you. You are still so young now, so I really don't have to hurry."

The comfort was too pale and powerless, and Dong Ying'er felt guilty. However, Jiang Ruan did not show any special emotions from beginning to end, as if she was watching other people's affairs coldly.

After a while, seeing that the time was almost over, the queen stood up and asked all the ladies and ladies to go to the main hall to start the palace banquet.

In the main hall, the emperor and the male relatives' seats were already in their place. Because the flood had just passed, the treasury became a little nervous due to disaster relief. The banquet was simple and not extravagant, which was very different from the gorgeous show in the past. Even the dishes and pastries at the banquet were very simple.

The women sat down on the women's mat, and the emperor and the queen sat on high seats. Next to them were the current Queen Mother and Queen Mother Yide.

Queen Mother Yide is now in her sixties, and her temples are already covered with white spots. Turquoise, gold wire inlaid with jade, auspicious cloud patterns, and buckles are luxurious and grand. Even from the face of Queen Mother Yide, you can vaguely see the style of the past. Queen Mother Yide was known as the first beauty of the Dajin Dynasty. Her facial features were slightly heroic. When she was young, she had two sons and one daughter with the former emperor. When the Eight Kings fought for the throne, she rebelled against the emperor and ascended the throne, sacrificed her eldest son, and even let her daughter Princess Yuanrong marry into other countries, borrowed troops to support the new emperor to ascend the throne. It can be said that without Queen Mother Yide, there would be no Dajin Dynasty today, and there would be no emperor. Queen Mother Yide was a thunderous and decisive person, even a little cold.

She looked at the people below with a faint look, and the ruby ​​armor on her fingers emitted a stimulating luster. When she saw one of the female relatives in the table, Queen Mother Yide suddenly was shocked, and she couldn't help but sit up straight and look at the man.

He was a young girl who looked young, because she couldn't see her face clearly in the lower seat, and could only see her black hair. She was combed with a simple single snail bun, with a gorgeous rose shaking on it. Her peach-pink dress was simple and enthusiastic, and she looked particularly fresh and pretty among the carefully dressed ladies.

It was too far away, but the girl seemed to suddenly feel the gaze of Queen Mother Yide and suddenly raised her head. When she saw Queen Mother Yide's eyes clearly, she was not panicked. After a little surprised, she replied with a smile from Queen Mother Yide. The smile was clean and clear, and there was a calm and sensible that was not in line with her age.

It actually coincides with another person in Queen Mother Yide's memory.

She finally resisted the urge to walk down and hold the girl back. After the girl finished laughing, she spoke to the ladies around her, and seemed to have not noticed this place at all. Queen Mother Yide sat straight in her seat and was slightly lost.

While Jiang Ruan and Dong Ying'er were talking, the corners of their lips were involuntarily curled slightly. Yu Guang saw Empress Dowager Yide sitting in her seat and could still feel her eyes following her.

Jiang Ruan picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip. She saw that the original purpose had been achieved. You must know that for this simple purpose, she practiced a simple action dozens of times in front of the mirror overnight.

The male family mat had already been given a gift. Seeing Jiang Xinzhi's eyes and smiles, it should be a very generous reward. Jiang Quan's face was not very good. The male and female family sat apart. Gu Yi had not seen Jiang Ruan for a long time since last time. At this moment, he saw Jiang Ruan sitting in the female family mat, and the days were getting longer and moving, and his eyes were extremely enthusiastic when he looked at her.

Xuan Li's lips were filled with a gentle smile, as if it was no different from the past. However, his left hand unconsciously rubbed it. He often did this when he was irritated. Obviously, the Prime Minister's Mansion was that he tried his best to appear calm and gentle, but he still couldn't hide his depression in his heart.

Xiao Shao sat next to Guan Lianghan. Today he was wearing a black brocade dress with a golden unicorn embroidered on the collar of the clothes, which looked even more cold and handsome, and had no friends. Many daughters in the house of the house secretly looked at him.

Soon, another beautiful girl came from outside the venue. She was about 14 or 15 years old. She was wearing a golden rooster collar with a feather blue ball of flowers all over the ground, a brocade dress with a silver red dark pattern carved silk in the ground, and a skirt with a colorful flower and grass pattern and tulle and ten brocades. She was already very gorgeous outfit, but this outfit did not look mixed when worn on her, but instead had a kind of gorgeous beauty. Her facial features were profound and had a kind of exotic style. She walked up to her and smiled, "Father."

"Heyi, why are you here now?" the emperor blamed, but his tone was very intimate. Princess Heyi was deeply loved by the emperor.

"My son is so crazy about choosing clothes. You can't embarrass your father." Princess Heyi blinked at the emperor. The emperor laughed loudly. She glanced at the male mat. When she saw Xiao Shao, her heart was thunderous. However, the fallen flowers were intentionally flowing water. Xiao Shao never looked at her, and a trace of loss flashed in Princess Heyi's eyes.

Dong Ying'er touched Jiang Ruan's arm: "Sister Ruan, are you really saying that Princess Heyi likes Prince Xiao, is that true?" Dong Ying'er has always loved listening to these gossips. Now that there are ready-made materials, she will naturally not let them go.

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly. It was no secret that Princess Yi had fallen in love with Xiao Shao in her previous life, and it was almost as well known to everyone in the Dajin Dynasty. Princess Heyi also vowed that she would not marry Xiao Shao for the rest of her life, and even wanted Concubine Shu to persuade the emperor to marry him. But the emperor actually chose Xiao Shao among Princess Heyi and Xiao Shao, whom he loved, and asked Xiao Shao first what Xiao Shao meant. Xiao Shao was deserted and refused. After hearing the news of Xiao Shao's rejection, Princess Heyi searched for death every day, and even went to Princess Jinying's mansion to find an explanation in person, but the other party was still unmoved. In the last life, Princess Heyi had never had any results with Xiao Shao.

Jiang Ruan's eyes were low, and Princess Heyi's experience was sad, but that did not include her. It was just because Princess Heyi was in the palace in his previous life, and she had many troubles. Princess Heyi was narrow-minded and jealous by nature. When Jiang Ruan entered the palace, she was the best-looking girl among the group of beautiful girls. She was charming, but Princess Heyi was also gorgeous, and she didn't want anyone to steal her limelight. So she often asked someone to cause trouble for her. Once, she even slandered the maids in her yard and killed all the second-class palace maids in her yard. That scene had appeared countless times in Jiang Ruan's dream, which frightened her.

None of the old friends in this palace are kind to others.

But at this moment, the Empress Dowager suddenly said lightly: "Deputy General Jiang, do you say today that tomorrow is your sister's birthday?"
