âSo this is the crown princeâs residence!â A young lady from the Guan family followed her parents into the crown princeâs mansion. She looked around curiously. Although the mansion looked very low-key, anyone with a good eye would be able to see that it was worth thousands of gold.
âThatâs right, thatâs right! The Crown Princeâs Palace is so dignified!â The other young miss also answered. Usually, they did not have the chance to enter the Crown Princeâs Palace, and even their father had never entered the Crown Princeâs Palace before. One must know that the Crown Princeâs Palace was extremely curious in the eyes of these noble sons and daughters.
Just at this moment, a young miss wanted to run towards that seemingly solemn place. It seemed that the crown princeâs sleeping quarters were surrounded by several courtyards. However, before the young miss could approach, a guard came out from the shadows and stopped her.
âNo one is allowed to approach the Crown Princeâs chamber!â The guardâs voice was cold and dry, but it made the young miss as well as those who had entered the crown princeâs mansion aware of the crown princeâs rules. They all secretly warned the people beside them not to get too close to the crown princeâs sleeping quarters.
There were many places that people could only take a glance at. If they were to take an extra look, they would be able to see the cold eyes of the guards standing there. The party that was supposed to be lively and lively had their hearts palpitating.
Before the sky turned dark, everyone had already arrived. Nangong Lian had been brought to the crown princeâs mansion by Lin Jia Er very early to sit on the right side of the table. Now that Lin Jia Er had an identity, he was arranged to sit under Nangong Lian.
When the crowd arrived at the main hall, they found that the hall was beautifully decorated. They didnât know that with the support of the Ye Family, it was easy to obtain the required things for a banquet to be held, and the decorations were personally instructed by Yi Yin.
âThe woman sitting there is the foster mother of the legendary Crown Prince?â The ministers were curious to see Yi Yin sitting close to the main seat. They had to admit that they were shocked by her beauty and aura in the beginning, but after all, her age didnât make any bad associations.
âIt must be, otherwise that woman would dare to sit there. It must be known that even the government officials arenât qualified to sit there. However, the crown prince seems to be too interested in that woman!â This official was from the crown princeâs faction. Although he admired the crown prince, he also thought that as the crown prince, he shouldnât trust an unknown person too much.
Yi Yin sat there and heard the whispers of the crowd, but she did not care. Having gone through so many storms and waves, this had no effect on Yinyin at all. However, thinking about what Shang had said today, Yinyin was still in a good mood. After all, Shangâs unintentional âmasterâ was a close elder who treated her like his real mother.
At this moment, some of the ladies had already started to try to please Yi Yin. It was very difficult to get close to the crown prince, and most importantly, these ladies usually did not see him. Now, when they saw Yi Yin, they all wanted to get a good impression of her, so they could enter the crown princeâs mansion to meet him in the future. Even though it was rumored that the crown prince was a man without sleeves, such a man with supreme authority and looks, who was not tempted by his ladies, and who was not prepared by his officials?
âMadam, may I ask if my daughter can sit by your side?â A bold woman approached Yi Yin and spoke first. This made those girls who were originally eyeing her covetously jealous. After all, this was the place closest to the crown prince.
Yinyin felt a headache coming on as she looked at the well-dressed woman around her. She was deeply worried for her son; originally, there were more than enough love rivals, both men and women, and now there were so many hidden love rivals. She didnât know if her sonâs sullen temperament could handle them.
âIâm really sorry, but there are no more seats for me here!â Yinyin rejected without hesitation. After all, these were the little bitches who were going to fight with their sons to get someone else. Yinyin was definitely going to suppress these people.
The woman didnât expect Yiyin to reject her offer like this. Normally, all of these ladies would look like they were magnanimous, even if they didnât want to, they wouldnât show it. However, this girl was only a little surprised and continued to squat down beside Yiyin like a well-behaved daughter, âItâs okay, I only need to get one more seat and you will settle for this little girl, right?â Even acting like a spoiled child was needed.
Yiyin was originally annoyed by this woman, but now that she didnât know what was good for her, her face immediately turned cold. This was because this woman was too close and her wide clothes tripped the wine cup on the table. The wine flowed down the table and onto Yiyinâs pure white clothes.
âOut of the way!â Yiyin immediately pushed away the woman who was near her. The woman was already standing unsteadily, but now she was pushed down to the ground by Yiyin. Everyoneâs eyes were originally on the scene, but now that such a question appeared, everyoneâs interest was piqued.
The woman laid on the ground, completely at a loss as to what had happened. However, when the mother saw her daughter being bullied like this, she walked over and helped her daughter up. She started to criticize Yinyin, âWhatâs wrong with this lady?â My daughter is still a child, so even if my wife dislikes it, she shouldnât push my daughter! â
âMother, stop it!â The woman saw that Yi Yinâs expression wasnât good and wanted to stop her. She didnât know why she felt that this lady was even more terrifying than her father when she was angry. She felt that they couldnât afford to offend this person.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhy canât you say so? A woman of unknown origins is actually so rude. I wonder what kind of eyesight the crown prince has?!â The woman shouted. However, Yi Yin, who was just said to be indifferent, immediately stood up when she heard that the woman had dragged the crown prince in.
Yinyin stood up and everyone just realized that not only was this woman beautiful, but she also had the aura of an expert. Many men didnât even have that ability, which made the woman feel like she had done something wrong.
âThey chased this lady and her out of the Crown Princeâs Palace!â Yinyin commanded directly.
The woman sneered, âMy lady, this is a banquet by the Crown Princeâs Palace to welcome Princess Lian. Isnât this a little too much?â This woman wasnât the only one who didnât believe this. Even many people in the hall didnât believe that a woman could lead the crown princeâs residence at any time.
However, just when everyone thought that Yiyin would lose her face, they saw the guards of the crown princeâs mansion throw the woman and her out of the mansion without any hesitation. Now, everyone knew that this womanâs status in the mansion was not low at all.
At this time, a court official stood up. The ones that were thrown out were his daughter and his wife. He didnât want to stand up either, but at this moment, his face was no longer in a good position. A middle-aged woman dares to be so disrespectful! â
Nangong Lian saw that Yi Yin was being bullied and felt that she should stand up and help. However, she was stopped by Lin Jia Er. Nangong Lian was puzzled and heard him explain, âMadam Ye is an ordinary woman. Since the crown prince trusts Madam Ye, letâs not cause any trouble!â
âHow dare you!â The crowd watched as Shang Wuxin and Huan Mo Che walked into the main hall.
âGreetings, Crown Prince!â Everyone saluted, âGreetings, Minister Zuo!â
The sleeves and bottom of the robe were embroidered with sky-blue Cloud Returning Streak. The collar of the shirt was slightly raised, covering her smooth and exquisite chin, and the expression in her eyes was as clear as morning dew. At this moment, she glanced at that official, directly walking to the highest seat, beside Huan Mo Che and Shang Wuxin sitting side by side.
âAuntie?â Shang was not in the mood to look at the obviously unhappy Yi Yin and asked her. He then saw the stain on her pure white clothes. Yi Yin and Ye Yi Zhe were indeed both mother and son. Moreover, they were both somewhat obsessed with cleanliness.
After all, she hadnât come out of the snowy mountain for so many years. As soon as she came out, she was more or less uncomfortable seeing such a caring child in front of her, and was cured immediately.
âItâs fine, just some blind people. Auntie has dealt with them!â Yinyin lightly patted her clothes as she sat down.
Shang Wuxin did not pursue the matter. Instead, he looked at the minister with a sharp gaze, causing the minister to falter in his steps. Just as the minister was about to beg for mercy, he realized that the crown prince was no longer looking at him.
âPrincess Lotus needs to have a good look at this marriage alliance. There are quite a few talented youngsters in Shang!â Shang Wuxin directly said. Then, she looked at Lin Jia Er who was sitting there implicitly, causing Nangong Lian to immediately blush.
Nangong Lian smiled and quickly replied, âThe Crown Prince is being too courteous. Of course there will be a lot of talented young people in the State of Shang!â This time, Nangong Lian had come to Shang Country because she wanted to marry Lin Jia Er. Thinking about how she would marry such a man in the future, she felt extremely blessed, even if this man did not have monstrous power.
Just as everyone was laughing and talking about Yanyan, suddenly a woman walked into the main hall. This woman was wearing a white dress, her hair was combed into a bun and she entered everyoneâs line of sight, with a silk flower in her black hair.
Many of the men in the hall were attracted by the sudden appearance of Yishui, and seeing the effect she had on herself, Yishui was secretly happy in her heart, âWhat is this?â âIâm sorry, I didnât know there was a banquet here. Aunt, Iâm sorry, Iâll leave immediately!â
It was obvious from everyoneâs expressions that the woman had gotten onto the Crown Princeâs path, so she couldnât be bothered with her niece. At this moment, everyone felt sympathy for Yishui.
Yinyin was not angry, but instead had a kind smile. âItâs Shuiâer, aunty has told you many times, you are just an unmarried woman living with your aunt in the Crown Princeâs Palace. Didnât you say yesterday that you were sick?â âIâm really sorry. Aunt was so busy these past few days that I forgot to ask Shuiâer. Could it be that Shuiâer is angry?â
People who were biased towards Yishui began to despise her again. The woman from the Crown Princeâs Palace was forbidden from entering. She wanted to live in the Crown Princeâs Palace because of her aunt, but now she was blaming her own aunt.
âI â¦â Yi Shui was about to explain, but Shang Wuxin interrupted her, âSince you â¦â âWhatâs the name of the girl?â Whatâs the name of the girl?
