66: Chapter 66 The Crown Prince Cos Uninvited
When Su Yuan uttered these words, his sinister eyes were fixed on Chu Baihan.
Chu Baihan, upon hearing this, didn’t even flicker her gaze and walked straight past him.
Once her figure was out of sight, Su Yuan’s servant asked with a bizarre tone, “Princely Heir, is that Princess Consort really Chu Baihan?
She doesn’t look like it.”
“In this world, there’s sothing called ‘masquerade.’ This Princely Heir never believed Chu Baihan died six years ago.
This Princely Heir hasn’t taken revenge yet, what right does that wench have to die?”
While Su Yuan spoke, he slapped the chair he was sitting on fiercely, emitting an eerie aura that made people shudder.
“But Princely Heir, she is now the Princess Consort, it won’t be easy to deal with her.
Moreover, we haven’t confird her identity yet…” the servant said anxiously.
He really wanted to say that the Su Commandery Prince Residence was already in a tough situation, and provoking the Princess Consort of Nanduan Kingdom would do them no good.
The next mont, Su Yuan pulled out a dagger from sowhere and plunged it directly into the servant’s thigh.
The servant imdiately scread in agony.
“Princely, Princely Heir, this servant…”
“Does this Princely Heir need you to point fingers at what I should do?” Su Yuan sneered chillingly, like a fierce ghost that had crawled up from hell.
The remaining servants didn’t dare to make a sound.
Ever since the Princely Heir started to speak, his temper had beco even more violent, ready to take a life at the slightest misstep.
They shouldn’t provoke him.
“Wenmu, find a way to test if that Nan Baihan has used a masquerade or not.” Su Yuan continued to give orders harshly.
“Yes.” A guard nad Wenmu stepped forward and bowed respectfully in response.
anwhile, Chu Baihan arrived at the front courtyard, where the previously noisy area instantly fell silent.
“Welco everyone to this Princess’s banquet, if there is any lack of hospitality, please forgive .”
Chu Baihan’s cool gaze swept over the crowd as she spoke in a calm voice.
“Princess Consort, you’re too kind.
It is our honor to attend your banquet,” ca the flattering response from soone imdiately beside her.
“So this is the Princess Consort of Nanduan Kingdom, she’s quite good-looking,” remarked so of the aristocratic family daughters who hadn’t attended the palace banquet, unable to help but sigh.
Chu You, overhearing this, couldn’t help but snidely remark, “It’s said that the land and water of Nanduan Kingdom nourish beauty.
Even the won selling things on the streets there are good-looking.”
Upon hearing this, others exchanged glances and sneered sarcastically.
Chu You, the second daughter of the Chu Family, certainly showed her concubine daughter roots with envy written all over her face.
Hearing that she had clung to the Princess Consort, shouldn’t she be ingratiating herself with the Princess Consort at this ti?
Becoming aware of the mocking looks from the crowd, Chu You also realized that her comnt was sowhat inappropriate.
She coughed and then said loudly, “Of course, the Princess Consort is extrely beautiful.
Is there a need for you all to say this?”
After speaking, she intended to walk ostentatiously towards Chu Baihan.
But who knew that at this mont Yan Wen and Yan Yi had already walked over first.
“We didn’t get to et at the palace that day.
Today we finally have the chance.
Yan Yi greets sister Baihan,” Yan Yi called out to Chu Baihan with natural grace.
After all, although Chu Baihan was not a princess of Yan Country, her status as the Princess Consort of Nanduan Kingdom was there, so calling her “sister” not only wasn’t excessive but might also bring them closer.
Yan Yi?
The fourth Princess of Yan Country?
Daughter of the Empress?
Chu Baihan quickly identified the other party’s identity.
Yan Wen reluctantly muttered a curt greeting, “Princess Consort.”
“This must be the tenth Princess, I presu,” Chu Baihan guessed her identity as well.
“Fourth Princess, tenth Princess, what are you talking about with the Princess Consort?” Liu Shuxin interjected at this ti.
She skillfully linked arms with Yan Wen, the two appearing as close as sisters.
And Yan Wen did not bla her for her impudence.
“Princess Consort, you didn’t invite Shuxin, but Shuxin was originally planning to go boating with the two princesses today.
They invited Shuxin to co here as well, you won’t be angry, will you?” Liu Shuxin’s eyes fixed on Chu Baihan, her tone slightly provocative.
She truly was bold, considering how the palace banquet turned out, she still had the gall to show up at the Princess Residence.
Chu Baihan lowered her gaze, hiding the mocking look in her eyes, and responded indifferently, “Guests are a blessing, how could this Princess be angry?”
“Why didn’t the Crown Prince and the others co?
I was at the palace today to perform acupuncture on the Empress to alleviate her headache when I saw him there.
He shouldn’t be busy today, so why didn’t he co to the Princess Consort’s banquet?” Liu Shuxin mumbled to herself.
Her murmurs, though seemingly to herself, could be clearly heard by everyone.
Everyone understood…
Miss Liu was just trying to flaunt her favor with the Empress and the Crown Prince, wasn’t she?
It must be said, dical skills really are useful.
Just look at Miss Liu, any minor ailnt sends the Empress and the other noble ladies calling for her.
“It was my oversight.
If there’s a chance next ti, I must ask Miss Liu for help,” Chu Baihan smoothed the wrinkles on her sleeve, sending the conversation back without urgency.
“At such a lively party, this Prince would naturally co even without an invitation,” said Yan Jin’s voice from the entrance at that mont.
Soon after, he and the eldest Prince appeared before everyone.
He was dressed in a dazzling green robe, impossible to ignore.
He even winked at Chu Baihan, acting as though they were close.
Seeing that, Chu Baihan’s gaze flickered.
It seed that Yan Lin hadn’t told him about the incident in Cuiyue Building, and after he woke up, he had forgotten everything.
Soon after, dressed in a jade-colored robe, was Yan Xiao.
With only a page following him, he was extrely low-key.
“Princess Consort, this Prince cos uninvited, is it presumptuous?” Yan Xiao inquired of Chu Baihan with a smile.
He was already incredibly handso, making the clear breeze and bright moon seem lacking in comparison.
At that mont, his gentle smile left many of the noble ladies utterly smitten.
Seeing his impeccably polite face, Chu Baihan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
After a mont, she hooked her lips into a calm smile, “For the Crown Prince to visit is an honor to the Princess Residence, how could it be presumptuous?”
