C545 Start of banquet (2/2)
That person was indeed good.
Looking at Mu Ru Yue's expression, Princess Yun Rou's heart gave a cold snort.
”Princess Wushuang is here!”
Just as everyone was engrossed in the six beauties' dance, a sharp sound could be heard. As the sound rang out, the six beauties all stepped back to see a red carpet covering the area from the outside of the Peach Blossom Forest.
Not long later, the crimson dressed Princess Wushuang slowly walked over. Beside her, there was a lady who was exceptionally beautiful. When she smiled, it was as though she knew how to seduce people.
Isn't that Lady Wan?
Mu Ru Yue didn't expect Lady Wan to be here with Princess Wushuang. And from the other side of Princess Wushuang, a young girl also walked over. Her clothes were embroidered with a faint white plum blossom. The ribbon tied around her waist looked like a butterfly, making her look especially adorable.
This was none other than the Eleventh Princess, whom she had not seen for some time. This Princess Eleven happened to be in the limelight, and Mu Ru Yue reacted as soon as she saw her. It seemed that Lady Wan had abandoned her partner, Princess Yun Rou, in order to control Princess Eleven.
Mu Ru Yue looked at Yun Rou beside her as she thought, and as expected, her expression couldn't be described as pretty.
”Greetings, your Highness.”
Many people knelt onto the ground. Naturally, Mu Ru Yue and Princess Yun Rou didn't need to kneel. When Princess Wushuang walked over, she felt extremely satisfied. However, when she saw Murong Yue, she frowned slightly. However, she smiled amiably as if she was an elder.
That smile made Mu Ru Yue's heart shudder. Princess Wushuang was looking at her as though she was a junior? That's not scientific!
”Everyone, wake up.” As Princess Wushuang spoke, she clapped her hands and the busy palace maids carried the Eight Immortals Table one by one and walked up. There were also many maids holding vases in their hands and when the tables fell, the vases were placed down as well.
After these people left, it was a group of females who brought trays of cold food and placed them on the table. Most of the pastries were in the shape of peach blossoms, and some meat was decorated with quite a few flowers.
It looked like a peach blossom feast. It was so pleasing to the eyes.
There were a total of sixty or so tables placed on the stage. These tables formed a circle around the empty space. Princess Wushuang was sitting on the main seat. Beside her, the Eleventh Princess was sitting on the main seat.
Obviously, Princess Eleven's status was almost on the same level as Princess Wushuang. From this, it could be seen how important the royal family was to the marriage alliance of the eleventh princess. At the very least, it was much more important than worry-free.
Thinking of this, Mu Ru Yue's heart ached for Princess Wu You. Furthermore, he felt somewhat guilty. If it wasn't for the fact that Princess Wuyou had offended the empress dowager along with her, Princess Eleven's current position would have belonged to Princess Wuyou.
At that time, Wuyou was the emperor's favorite little girl. It was obvious that the people from the four kingdoms who came to propose marriage would also be following her lead. However, because they offended the empress dowager, they had to marry into the Qin family. It had even turned into such a mess.
Thinking about this, Mu Ru Yue's heart became a bit more determined. As long as it was Princess Wu You's wish, she would do her best to help her no matter what choice she made. This is atonement.
”Everyone, take your seats. Today, I came here on the orders of the emperor to hold a banquet for the residents of Peony City and the people of the southern region who are suffering from the calamity. ”His Majesty told me to bring over three of the palace's treasures and make an auction donation here. I hope you and the others can live up to His Majesty's expectations.”
Princess Wushuang said with a smile.
As soon as her voice fell, everyone sat down. Similarly, these people's hearts were in turmoil because before they came, Princess Wushuang had never mentioned that such a thing had happened. For a time, these people couldn't come up with any ideas, and could only take a step at a time.
Mu Ru Yue quickly sat down.
”Who is it!” Not far away, someone was stopped by a guard. When everyone was about to take their seats, Mu Ru Yue was suddenly stopped. She couldn't help but look over. When she saw who it was, she immediately became displeased.
