Chapter 424 House Opening Banquet
Bei Jingchu didn't mind, but Bei Yanyu was unhappy first.
She jokingly fanned the angry little girl.
The little princess, who was fanned by the Crown Prince himself, despised the honor. She tiptoed away and wrapped her coat tightly.
"What are you doing, elder sister? I'm afraid of the cold!"
"Ah - chirp!"
After saying that, he sneezed.
He has a hot temper, but he falls down easily if pushed.
Bei Jingchu felt that she had found the wrong person to vent her grievances to, and pointed in the direction of Ganlu Palace.
"You should go find Aye and get some benefits from him."
Bei Yanyu snorted, "I went to look for him. Aye rewarded me with a lot of jewelry."
But she still refused to accept it: "I can't wear all my jewelry anyway, I just want to go out of the palace for a stroll."
"Now I can't go to Hongwenguan anymore, and my companions can't enter the palace. They miss me so much outside the palace."
"It's so troublesome to leave the palace. I don't want to go out."
Bei Jingchu laughed: "You are just lazy."
Bei Yanyu was not convinced: "The imperial physician said that I was suffering from a deficiency of Qi and blood. It was a disease, not laziness!"
......
The Prince of Qin's mansion held a banquet, and as the eldest sister, Bei Jingchu naturally had to attend.
When she arrived, she ordered her entourage to present gifts.
Upon receiving the news, Bei Jingyu hurried out to greet him in person.
"Eldest sister is finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Come with me."
She was brought to the seat of honor, and Bei Jingyu opened her mouth, trying to explain something with difficulty.
"Sister... I, I didn't mean to..."
Before he could finish, a hearty laugh gradually approached.
"I heard that the eldest sister arrived one step ahead of us."
"My fourth sister and I knew Xiao San couldn't get away, so we came in on our own."
It was the voice of that girl Bei Yanyu, making a lot of noise.
The fourth princess was a shy person, a bit like Bei Jingyu, and smiled tenderly at the two of them: "Eldest sister, third brother."
Bei Yanyu pulled her to sit at the two tables opposite Bei Jingchu.
"I'm so hungry. I got up late today and didn't have breakfast. Xiao San, serve me some snacks."
Bei Jingyu sighed resignedly and went to give instructions.
Several children who were usually not allowed to leave the palace came out to attend the banquet on this day. Even the fourth child was unusually excited.
Bei Yanyu gave her some chicken soup: "Just bear with it a little longer, in two years you will be able to open your own mansion."
"Ok!"
Bei Jingchu curled the corners of her lips, so cute.
It was her first time attending the banquet since the assassination, and it was very different from previous times.
It couldn't be said that they were ignored. The officials who firmly followed the Eastern Palace took this opportunity to visit her and have a chat with her.
For example, Lei Nian'er's mother, Mrs. Gui, took the opportunity to come and pay her respects.
With her nephew from the Yun family, she tentatively asked Bei Jingchu what she thought of his appearance.
In fact, she looks pretty good. Even if Yun Guichi is Lei Nian'er's mother, she would not dare to let someone who is unsightly to appear in front of Bei Jingchu.
Being impolite in front of the emperor is a serious crime, and being impolite in front of the prince is not a minor crime either.
He has a nice face, but that's all he has.
There were too many handsome men around her, and she couldn't cause any ripples at all.
Seeing this, Mrs. Gui also tactfully withdrew.
Bei Jingchu continued to talk to the people who came to chat with her.
In the past, when she appeared, she would be surrounded by people so crowded that there was no room for people to move around, and Haoyue would have to repeatedly separate those who wanted to squeeze in to please her.
Now they are all waiting and watching.
On the other hand, it was very lively over at Bei Jingyu's place.
He was the host of this banquet, so it was reasonable for the guests to say a few auspicious words to the host.
Now that you're here, you can't just give them the cold shoulder.
But if I come up to Bei Jingchu and greet her directly, it would be seen as trying to curry favor with her.
For a moment, Bei Jingchu seemed a little cold.
Not long after, the fifth prince and the sixth prince also came together.
After meeting with the newly appointed Prince of Qin, the Sixth Prince went to his seat.
The fifth prince circled around Bei Jingyu and said admiringly, "Third brother, you are amazing. You are the only prince in our Great Yue now."
"What a prestigious title Aye gave you."
Bei Jingyu was embarrassed by the compliment and replied: "When you grow up, Aye will give you a title too."
The fifth prince flattered, "We are different. Apart from you, who else can always be with Aye and even enter and leave Ganlu Palace at will?"
"You are Aye's favorite son. Xiaoliu and I can only get half of Aye's attention at most."
He flattered, "Third brother, you must follow your younger brother's instructions."
Bei Jingyu has been praised a lot recently and has started to get used to it.
But this was flattery from his own brother, so he was still a little dazed and agreed: "I'm your brother, of course I will take care of you."
They were not far away, and Bei Jingchu heard everything they said.
She couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand. Xiaowu meant to help him win the throne, what a fool. He really thought he was asking his brother for help.
The opponent was too weak. It was speechless. I couldn't even make a move and he fell down on his own.
After receiving the answer, the Fifth Prince presented a second gift separately and handed it to Bei Jingyu personally to show the special relationship between them.
Having achieved his goal, he walked over triumphantly, sat down at the table in front of Xiaoliu, and greeted the brothers and sisters in front of him one by one.
