The reception banquet prepared to entertain the royal family finally arrived as scheduled.

Nan Baoyi sat in front of the makeup mirror, put on tourmaline earrings, and said curiously: "It's strange, I haven't seen Nan Yan these few days, is she going to prepare another moth?"

He Ye bent down and put on some bright red lipstick for her, "I heard that Nan Yan was sold to a low-level brothel by the Cheng family a while ago, and everyone in the house poked her back. She lost such a big face, Of course you want to hide in the house, how dare you come out to meet people? The emperor is still resting in our mansion, if he offends the nobleman, he will be taboo."

Nan Baoyi straightened her hair at the temples.

She didn't think that Nan Yan was a person who wanted face.

Judging from the tone of her conversation with her father that day, she seemed to know the royal family.

She couldn't figure out what kind of small plans Nan Yan was planning, so she simply didn't bother to care about it, and took the lotus leaf to the banquet hall.

The reception banquet is set in the garden.

Pavilions, terraces and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and golden hibiscus in autumn bloom beautifully and movingly, showing the elegance that Jinguan City should have.

The hall was already full of dignitaries from Shu County, each with their families and families, and it was very lively.

Especially those young girls, all of them are competing for beauty, their temples are shadowy and their clothes are fragrant. From time to time they nervously peep out of the hall, and from time to time they tidy up their buns and dresses, obviously they are here to choose a son-in-law.

It's just that I don't know whether to choose the powerful minister or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The older lady was busy inquiring about her from the female family members of the Nan family, apparently with the intention of marrying Qin and Jin.

She hadn't stepped over the threshold when she heard voices coming from inside:

"Princess Baoyi, this concubine has seen it before. She is pretty and has a good temper. It's just that she is a little clumsy in her actions, and she doesn't look like a girl who is good at taking care of the backyard. It's not that this concubine is talkative, Mrs. Nan San , you still have to teach her more, so as not to embarrass her when she gets married in the future."

It was Princess Jing's voice.

Nan Baoyi stopped.

The curled eyelashes cast shadows in the pupils, making her look a bit chillier.

Princess Jing's tone of voice was full of a smile, as if the elders were just making fun of the younger generation.

As everyone knows, such a joke is enough to ruin the reputation of a young girl who has worked so hard.

He Ye was angry: "Miss—"

Nan Baoyi raised her index finger to signal her to keep silent.

She leaned against the veranda, wanting to hear what harsh words Princess Jing could say.

Hall.

Cheng Yerou faced Princess Jing.

Both were born as daughters-in-law of an official family, and recently she has often practiced outside with her second sister-in-law, the Jiang family, and her aura is no less than that of Princess Jing.

She sneered: "Although I am Jiaojiao's stepmother, I have been with her for a year. Concubine Jing is new here, but after talking with Jiaojiao a few times, she thinks she is stupid? I don't know, I thought Princess Jing is targeting the juniors."

Princess Jing's brows and eyes were full of sarcasm.

The Nan family only received Sheng Jia once, so they became proud.

In the past few days, she has figured it out. The Nan family has become popular, and seeing that her Yi'er has a bright future, she took advantage of the opportunity of being close to the water, and instigated Nan Baoyi to use her beauty to seduce Yi'er!

Fortunately, she had already prepared for this reception banquet,

Looked at the target for Nan Baoyi in advance.

As long as the marriage is settled for Nan Baoyi, it is expected that she will not pester Yi'er again.

She took a sip of tea, and said in a warm voice: "Miss Nan San's words are not right. This concubine likes Jiaojiao very much, and even helped her negotiate a fiancé."

The hall was silent for a moment.

The Nan family all looked at Princess Jing.

The old lady's face was ashen, Jiang Shi and Cheng Yerou were first stunned, then quickly turned into deep disgust, and the teacup in Nan Baorong's hand almost fell to the ground.

What kind of thing is Princess Jing? Where does she have the face to help Jiaojiao talk about her fiancé? !

Still negotiated? !

How come they don't know that Jiaojiao has already settled on her fiancé? !

Outside the corridor, Nan Baoyi himself was stunned.

Because of her second brother, she regarded Princess Jing as her aunt.

But what did this woman do? !

Talk about a fiance for her? !

Why didn't she just marry her directly? !

Princess Jing was very satisfied with everyone's reaction.

She said softly: "Yesterday I visited the newly appointed prefect of Shu County. He is young and promising, well-read in poetry and books. I don't know how bright his future is. I mentioned to him about Princess Baoyi's marriage, and he readily agreed. .”

"Young and promising?" Jiang shredded the handkerchief in his hand, "Princess Jing, the new prefect of Shu County, is already thirty-five years old, and she is still a widower whose wife died! She even has a son and a daughter under her knees." Female!"

"That's why I say it's a very good marriage." Princess Jing smiled from ear to ear, "Jiaojiao is stupid, not good at taking care of the back house, so she needs to find an older man, so that he can feel sorry for her. Once you get married, you will have both children, what a beautiful thing, no one else can find it with a lantern!"

Is this a good marriage? !

Everyone in the hall has never heard of it.

The Nan family was so angry that they were shaking!

"So in the eyes of Princess Jing, this is a good marriage."

A crisp and childish voice came from outside the house.

Nan Baoyi gracefully stepped into the threshold, "I heard that Concubine Jiang gave birth to two sons and a daughter for His Royal Highness Prince Jing, so although the concubine has no children under her knees, she has both children. You must be living happily, right?"

Princess Jing choked.

When did Nan Baoyi come?

She was embarrassed, but she said gently: "Jiaojiao's words like this must despise the prefect of Shu County. Let him know, you will be sad."

"He is sad, what does it have to do with me?" Nan Baoyi stood in the center of the hall, "My Nan family has never mentioned that we want to marry him. Everything is done by Princess Jing and she is good at making suggestions. He is sad, and it is also because of Jing. Because of the concubine. I am an innocent girl, I don't want to be contaminated by outsiders at will, and I hope that Concubine Jing will respect herself."

A few words, neither fast nor slow, loud and clear.

Princess Jing was embarrassed.

She clutched her handkerchief, wishing Xiao Yi could see with her own eyes how vicious and shameless his so-called favorite woman was.

Just as he was getting angry, Xiao Yi and the people from the royal family arrived.

After a big ceremony, everyone lined up on both sides of the hall and took their seats.

Nan Baoyi sat on the seat next to Xiao Yi, his face was white and cold.

Xiao Yi picked up the fishbone, lowered his eyes and smiled and said, "Okay, who made you so angry?"

"Of course it's your own aunt!"

Nan Baoyi didn't care if it would affect the relationship between Xiao Yi and his aunt.

She recounted her grievances like pouring beans: "...I treat her like an elder, but she treats me like this. I thought about it, but fortunately, my family loves me. If no one takes me seriously, how can she treat me like this?" Don't you want to sell me directly to the prefect of Shu County as a sequel? A prefect at thirty-five years old can be my father!"

Xiao Yi chuckled lightly.

He put the selected fish into her small dish.

He raised his eyelids and looked at Princess Jing meaningfully.

She probably didn't know that it wasn't Nan Baoyi begging to marry him.

Instead, he begged to marry her.

Originally, he wanted to wait and see and wait until the right time to ask for the imperial decree of marriage, but now it seems that he has to get the imperial decree of marriage today to make him completely at ease.

Otherwise, the little girl he managed to grab in his mouth would be taken away by his stupid aunt before she got married.
