Chapter 73 Troubles on the Welcome Banquet

Chushi Weiming noticed that Yang Zijin was wearing the step shake, and just wanted to ask her, but he saw that Chushi Weiyang pulled Yang Zijin aside. He had to wait for the annoying Prince to leave.

"Qingcheng, you are so beautiful!" Chushi Weiyang said.

Seeing that it was the same person who used to go to Qijing Temple together with her, Yang Zijin was not surprised. She knew that he was a person with high status since that time. She asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm the sixth son of His Majesty, Chushi Weiyang. You can call me Weiyang!" He said with a smile.

Yang Zijin pretended to be surprised, "It's you!"

"You look somewhat like a friend I know, but my friend is a man." Chushi Weiyang pretended to say inadvertently.

Looking at his tentative look, Yang Zijin was not sure how to answer.

Someone said, "Look, Marquis Shuo is here!"

Hearing that, all females gave way to him as they didn't want to embarrass themselves before the public.

Girls admired him and watched from afar.

He walked straight towards Yang Zijin, and at this time, the two stood together. It was a perfect couple!

"Congratulations on coming back!" Shuo Ling said with satisfaction.

She obeyed his words and wore the step shake!

Before Yang Zijin spoke, Chushi Weiyang said, "Marquis Shuo, is Qingcheng beautiful?"

Listening to that, Yang Zijin wished to strangle him. He was deliberate! How could he ask like this facing so many people?

"She is as beautiful as her name. What does Your Highness think?" Shuo Ling asked.

Seeing Shuo Ling, who always kept himself away from girls, took the initiative to talk to her, people couldn't help but wonder if Marquis Shuo had a different temper from before? Or these two persons...

Women were talking around in a whisper.

"Is the step shake worn by Infanta Qingcheng the one that the former Empress Dowager awarded to Shuo's family?"

"It seems to be the same one, but this doesn't mean that the person wearing it is the hostess of the Shuo family, and Your Highness has just returned to the imperial city. Could it be a similar one?"

"I don't know, but if you look carefully, the step shake is of good quality, and it doesn't like a fake one."

Hearing these, Shuo Ling knew what they were saying, but Yang Zijin was confused.

Chushi Weiyang felt that there must be something subtle between them. "Marquis Shuo, I have something to say with you. Come over."

He pulled Shuo Ling to the Imperial Garden!

"Keep silent, people from the mansion of the Duke are here."

Someone whispered to remind them while Li Mingzi and Mu Yunong were walking towards them. They quickly closed their mouths.

Soon the step shake caught all women's attention!

At this time, Li Mingzi's maid came to her and whispered something about Yang Zijin's step shake.

After listening to it, Li Mingzi couldn't help but realize that it was no wonder that she felt the step shake a little familiar. It turned out to be the one that the former Empress Dowager awarded to Shuo's family.

Thinking of this, Li Mingzi smiled. She thought, "Yang Zijin, you can't blame me. Even if I don't say to His lordship, he will know it sooner or later."

After listening to Li Mingzi, Duke of Mu looked terrible and growled, "Shuo Ling, it's you again!"

Mu Yunong, who was standing aside, couldn't help but be happy. It seemed that her father was angry. Yang Zijin, you deserve it!

After talking about this, Li Mingzi and Mu Yunong walked away. After the banquet was over, they went home to wait for a great show!

"Yunong, go to find the Third Prince and say there is something important to discuss!" Li Mingzi told Mu Yunong.

A trace of evil emerged on her face. She thought, "In this case, I will help to push forward the process!"

"What's the matter?" Chushi Weiming came over.

Li Mingzi said leisurely, "Did you see the step shake worn by the infanta? It belongs to Shuo's family."

"What's the problem? Doesn't Duke of Mu agree that?" Chushi Weiming snorted.

Li Mingzi smiled slightly, "Don't worry. How can His Lordship allow this to happen on such a big occasion! I know your affection for the infanta, but I need to remind you that someone has the same feeling as you!"

"Is it possible that you already have a plan?" After listening, Chushi Weiming narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Mingzi.

Li Mingzi whispered to Third Prince. Chushi Weiming frowned slightly after hearing her words. He then thought for a while and nodded.

Although it's not what a gentleman should do, it's the most effective method!

Duke of Mu was very angry when he knew it, but it was not suitable to lose temper on such an occasion. It looked like Yang Zijin didn't know it, so he decided to ask her after the banquet.

"Marquis Shuo, there is no outsider now. Tell me, when did you fall in love with Young Master Yang, oh... no, its infanta Qingcheng." Chushi Weiyang asked with joy.

Since seeing the infanta at first glance, Chushi Weiyang felt that he might see her before. When he saw the step shake worn by her, he went to chat with her and discovered that her behavior was no different from Young Master Yang!

It's no wonder that Shuo Ling didn't care when people said he was a gay person!

After hearing it, Shuo Ling turned around and walked away without giving Chushi Weiyang a look.

Seeing Shuo Ling was to leave, Chushi Weiyang cried out, "Hey... Shuo Ling, tell me!"

He caught up.

Only Chushi Weiyang dared to behave like this in front of Shuo Ling!

The banquet was about to start. His Majesty and Crown Prince are here, and everyone knelt.

"Stand up. Today we are here to host the welcome banquet for infanta Qingcheng. I am thrilled. You can take it easy." Chushi Youtian said with joy.

After His Majesty and Empress Dowager took their seats, the officials and their families also sited!

From the time Chushi Lanfu came, Mu Yunong stared at him, and she was still looking for him after taking the seat.

"Yunong, what are you looking for?"

Hearing Li Mingzi's question, Mu Yunong had a flush on her face and said quickly, "No... nothing!"

It seemed that Mu Yunong already grew up and fell in love with someone. Li Mingzi smiled and decided to ask her after returning home!

At the banquet, Duke of Mu, together with his family, proposed toasts to the officials and their families.

At this time, Li Mingzi made eye-contact with her maid, who understood!

"Oh!" The maid pretended to be tripped, and the wine in the jug spilled all over Yang Zijin.

Seeing that, Li Mingzi hurried to Yang Zijin and asked, "Qingcheng, are you okay."

Then she turned to the maid, "What's the matter with you? If you hurt the infanta, you can't afford the consequence!"

"Madam, Your Highness, it’s an accident. Please forgive me." The maid knelt.

Duke of Mu said, "Forget about it. Just get up!"

"Thank you, My Lord, thank you!" The maid said in gratitude.

Then Mu Yunong said, "Do you have other clothes? If you don't mind, you can wear my clothes first."

After thinking for a moment, Yang Zijin nodded!

She wanted to see what they planned to do.

After a while, the maid of Mu Yunong brought clothes over.

"Please follow me!" Then Mu Yunong took the clothes from the maid and walked forward.

Shuo Ling, who always paid attention to them, frowned. It was evident that this was a plot, but Yang Zijin pretended not to know about it. He quietly followed them!

Halfway out of the Imperial Garden, Mu Yunong suddenly shouted, "Oh... I want to go to the restroom. You can go first and change clothes in the room there." She pointed.

She handed the clothes to Yang Zijin.

"Okay." Yang Zijin sneered silently. She thought, "I'm almost convinced, but I still want to see what you plan to do!"

She went into the room pointed to by Mu Yunong, and put the clothes aside. Then she hid in the dark corner of the room.

Soon she heard something from outside the door.

Third Prince Chushi Weiming walked in quietly. He looked around and frowned slightly. Then he walked towards the clothes.

Yang Zijin suddenly understood their purpose. Chushi Weiming would pretend to come into the room by accident while she was changing her clothes so that she would be criticized by other people. In this era, the reputation of a girl was critical. In this way, they would destroy her!

What a perfect trap!

"Are you disappointed?" At this time, Yang Zijin walked out.

Chushi Weiming was stunned for a while, but he calmed down soon, "What do you mean?"

"There is nobody. You don't need to pretend like that?" Yang Zijin sneered.

At this time, Chushi Lanfu, who drank a lot of wine, came out to freshen himself up. He heard that there seemed to be the voice of Chushi Weiming from the room, so he stopped to listen carefully.

Shuo Ling, who hid in a corner, thought that it seemed to be a quite lively day.

Chushi Weiming explained, "Plead don't misunderstand me. I'm just a little tired, so I want to have a rest here!"

"I know your plan. Don't waste your time on me!" Yang Zijin warned him. She used to take him as a friend, but since she knew that he took advantage of her in Blossoming Peach, she had already ended the friendship with him!

"Yang... Qingcheng, please don't misunderstand me." Chushi Weiming said.

Yang Zijin didn't pay attention to him. She added, "Even if you see something, you won't have your wishes come true as long as I don't agree!"

Then she walked outside.

Hearing this, Chushi Lanfu understood the whole thing in general, but it seemed that this was not the first time Chushi Weiming and Yang Zijin met. Did his younger brother know the infanta for a long time?

He thought the infanta was a special girl. Thinking about it, he was bumped against by Yang Zijin!

"Ah..." Yang Zijin got hurt!

She looked up, "Your... Your Highness."

"Qingcheng, why are you here?" Chushi Lanfu asked in surprise.

Before she spoke, Mu Yunong's anxious voice came from afar, "She disappeared here. I went to the restroom for a while and couldn't find her after coming back. It’s the first time for her to be here. I'm afraid that she lost her way!"

"Miss Mu, please don't worry. To be patient. It hasn't been too long. She must be nearby." Someone persuaded her.
