The next head of the Jiang family and the eldest grandson whom they had worked so hard to cultivate were killed one after another, which made Gu Jian very happy. Daohua and Xiao Yeyang clearly felt this after they came to Four Seasons Villa.

July is the hottest time, and the hot weather did not stop the old man from being in a good mood.

Prince Yong was old and couldn't stand the heat. He would come to Zhuangzi every summer to escape the heat. He often chatted and drank tea with Gu Jian, and the two old men became more and more familiar with each other.

During this period, the reputations of Daohua and Xiao Yeyang were not very good, but knowing that they were coming, the old prince immediately sent someone back to the house to call his grandson Xiao Ye.

Xiao Yeyang saw the intention of Prince Yong Lao, but did not say anything about it. Although Xiao Yexuan's ability was not outstanding, he was more sincere and he was willing to be friends with him.

As a member of the royal family, he still needs to build his own connections.

Princes are not allowed to make friends, but clan relatives can still get a little closer.

Since there was no errand, Xiao Yeyang arranged for secret guards to keep an eye on the Jiang family, and then he and Daohua stayed in Zhuangzi.

The day before Chinese Valentine's Day, Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong came to Four Seasons Villa together.

"Why are you here?"

Daohua looked at the two of them in surprise.

Kang Naixin asked with a smile: "Why don't you welcome me?"

Daohua immediately smiled and said: "Miss Kang and Miss Wu are here, and the humble house is full of glory. How can we not welcome them?" With that, he welcomed them into the house.

After taking a sip of tea, Wu Xirong said with a smile: "Tomorrow is the Chinese Valentine's Day, and the ladies from the capital meet to hold a begging party at Yunhe Tower. Neither Naixinju nor I liked such a party, so we hid in the village."<

/p>

"Parties with many people are boring." Daohua asked the maid to serve iced watermelon and grapes, and chatted with Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong with a smile.

Kang Naixin ate the watermelon with a smile: "Xirong and I will stay in the village for a few days, and we will come to play with you every day. Don't be reluctant to entertain us."

Daohua laughed: "Watermelon and grape tubes are full."

After eating the fruit for a while, Kang Naixin glanced at Wu Xirong and asked Daohua with a smile: "I heard that Xiao Yexuan often comes to your villa?"

Daohua nodded: "The old prince likes to chat and drink tea with my master. He came here with the old prince."

At noon, Caiju came over to announce that it was time for dinner, and Daohua took the two of them to Gu Jian's courtyard. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw Xiao Yexuan and Wu Dingbai standing next to Xiao Yeyang.

"Your brother is here too?"

Wu Xirong nodded and said: "My father felt that my brother was doing nothing at home and always scolded him. When he knew that Naixin and I were coming to Zhuangzi, he hid with us."

With the addition of a few young people, the dinner table immediately became lively.

Everyone was chatting and laughing, and Gu Jian and Prince Yong were also very happy.

In the next few days, Kang Naixin, Wu Dingbai, and Wu Xirong brothers and sisters came to Four Seasons Villa every day. With more contact, Xiao Yeyang and Daohua got to know these people better and better.

During this period, Daohua noticed that Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong always came closer to Xiao Yexuan intentionally or unintentionally.

She remembered that during the Chinese New Year, these two people also came to her village. It happened to be when Xiao Yexuan was there. They were both guests and they all knew each other. At that time, she and Xiao Yeyang entertained three people in the pavilion.<

/p>

A chance encounter is a coincidence, but two or three encounters are not.

Daohua looked at Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong.

The two of them are about a year younger than her, have similar family backgrounds and good looks, but they haven't gotten engaged yet.

I wonder which of these two people is attracted to Xiao Yexuan?

The time spent living in Zhuangzi passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was July 16th. Tomorrow was the Queen Mother’s birthday. Xiao Yeyang and Daohua had to get up and go back home even if they didn’t want to go anymore.

In the carriage back to the city, Xiao Yeyang saw that Daohua was not energetic, so he thought for a while and said, "You and Miss Kang and Miss Wu had a good time?"

Daohua: "It's okay. Both of them are straightforward and not coy. They're easy to get along with."

Xiao Yeyang immediately smiled and said: "Since you get along with them, then invite more of them to the palace to accompany you in the future, so that you will not be bored."

Daohua sighed: "Yuan Yao has returned to Zhongzhou with Sun Changze, Shiyu has also gone to Guangdong Province with his fourth brother, Jingwan is about to give birth again, I can't even find anyone who can speak to me, it's true.

Quite boring."

Xiao Yeyang hugged Daohua and said with a smile: "The eldest princess and the Wu family are both neutral royalists. We can be on good terms with them."

Daohua said ‘hmm’.

......

July 17th is the birthday of the Queen Mother.

Because of the death of Prince Chiang, there was no big celebration this time. Instead, the royal family members were gathered together and a family banquet was held in Cining Palace.

Daohua and Xiao Yeyang followed Prince Ping obediently and presented themselves to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother snorted and didn't even give Prince Ping a good face.

Under the watchful eyes of all the clan members, Prince Ping smiled stiffly and sat down with Daohua and Xiao Yeyang.

Compared to the bustle elsewhere, the place where Daohua and the others were sitting seemed to be separated by a vacuum belt.

Daohua and Xiao Yeyang didn't care much about this, but Prince Ping felt a little uncomfortable.

After sitting for a while, Prince Ping went over to talk to Prince Rui.

Princess Huijia also came with Kang Naixin. When Kang Naixin saw Daohua, she smiled and stepped forward to say hello.

A very ordinary greeting pierced the eyes of the Queen Mother. On the spot, the Queen Mother became angry with Princess Hui Jia and Kang Naixin.

"Huijia, Naixin is not young yet, why haven't you mentioned her yet? If you don't have a suitable candidate, the Ai family can find her a matchmaker."

After hearing this, the expressions of Princess Huijia and Kangnai Xinju changed.

When the Queen Mother proposes a marriage, it must be based on interests, and it is also based on the interests of the Jiang family. What kind of good marriage can she refer to?

Princess Huijia said quickly: "Back to the Queen Mother, I have already taken care of Naixin."

Queen Mother: "Oh? Whose family is it? Come and listen to it. The Ai family can help me find out the details."

Seeing that the Queen Mother looked like she was going to marry her if she didn't tell who she was, Princess Huijia hesitated. She knew her daughter's thoughts. She liked Wu Dingbai from the Wu family, but the Wu family had never come to express her gratitude.

How could she speak?

Kang Naixin noticed her mother's embarrassment, thought for a moment and stepped forward: "Back to the Queen Mother, Naixin likes Wu Dingbai from Governor Wu's family."

He only said that she liked her, but did not say that the two families had made a decision. Regardless of whether the Wu family was willing to marry her in the future, it would not be considered as deceiving the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother obviously had no intention of letting Kang Naixin go: "You like Wu Dingbai, does Wu Dingbai like you?"

It is really humiliating to ask such a question to a girl who has not yet left the court.

Princess Huijia was so angry that she clenched her fists.

"Why is it so quiet?"

The emperor walked into the hall with a smile, glanced at Princess Hui Jia and Kang Naixin who were standing, and then calmly walked next to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother smiled and said: "Your Majesty is here just in time. This girl Naixin said that she likes Wu Dingbo of the Wu family. Do you want to..."

The emperor smiled and interrupted the Queen Mother: "Dingbai, that guy is really good." After saying that, without giving the Queen Mother a chance to speak, he looked at the clan members present.

"Have you prepared all the gifts for the Queen Mother?"

Prince Yonglao immediately took over the words: "I have already prepared it. I am just waiting for the emperor to come over and present it to the Queen Mother."

The Emperor: "Then what are you waiting for? Present it, and I will see what good things you have given me."

Under the leadership of Prince Yonglao, all the royal family members began to present gifts one after another, which diverted what had just happened.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother was extremely angry, but she could not face the Emperor face to face, so she could only express her displeasure by facing the people who were presenting gifts with a straight face.

Usually, Prince Ping is the most active in giving gifts, but this time, he sat still.

The Queen Mother did not show favor to Prince Ping's palace before. He thought she was old and didn't take it seriously, but Princess Huijia's daughter was embarrassed in public just because she said hello to Yan Yatou.

What does the Queen Mother want to do?

Do you want everyone to be excluded and ignore the Yeyang couple?

Did she ever think about his feelings when she did this?

When he thinks of Cheng Huan's efforts to please him over the years, Prince Ping always feels like he's paid the wrong price.
