Chapter 404 The Banquet of Shu Mansion
As soon as Duan Qianzhi came in, the rich ladies who were familiar with her waved to her.
Duan Qianzhi nodded at them, but did not go towards them, but towards Qi Yan.
This immediately attracted everyone's attention.
After all, Duan Qianzhi had a relationship with His Royal Highness, but she went to the front of the Crown Princess to stalk. What's going to do?
What if the Crown Princess doesn’t give Duan Qianzhi a face and starts to make trouble in Shu Mansion?
Everyone was worried and their eyes were unwilling to change, just because they were afraid that they would accidentally miss some big gossip.
Duan Qianzhi walked to Qi Yan, "Why are you sitting alone?"
"This is my second time in Jingzhou, and I don't know anyone here either. Of course, I'm sitting alone. What about you? Do you want to sit with me?"
Qi Yan responded with a faint expression. She was too lazy to meet these women. If she could, she wanted to meet these noble ladies' men.
Only a man with power can make her want to get to know her. If she can fool them to go to Fengcheng to develop, that would be the best thing.
"My father told me to let me be with you so that you can avoid losing."
After Duan Qianzhi sat down, she looked helpless.
Qi Yan chuckled, is the head of Duan family kind to her?
Don’t you blame her for taking Duan Qianzhi’s marriage?
Qi Yan stopped talking, picked up the small pastry on the table and ate two bites.
It’s true that this sweet osmanthus cake is pretty good.
Qi Yan took three pieces of pastries on the table and handed them to Mo Huan, Mo Xi and Duan Luan behind him to try them.
Duan Luanben wanted to refuse, but Qi Yan asked him to go ahead with a word, "You don't like it, but Leng Ci likes it. Don't you try it first, and then buy some for her to try it?"
One-Chapter Center.
Duan Luan took it and started tasting it openly.
After everyone was chatting for a few words, the Eighth Prince Ye Wen arrived.
This time when the Eighth Prince Ye Wen went out, Concubine Shu arranged a team of 100 guards for him.
The leader who escorted the Eighth Prince Ye Wen to Jingzhou was actually Si Nanjian.
When Qi Yan saw Si Nanjian, she couldn't help but be surprised and looked at Duan Luan.
Duan Luan lowered her head and dared not look at her.
Qi Yan narrowed her eyes. It seemed that Duan Luan had something to hide from her.
However, Si Nanjian was a general and was sent to protect such an eighth prince, but he was useless.
Qi Yan calmly looked at all this in front of him. The eighth prince Ye Wen is twelve years old this year. Although he is a half-year-old child, his appearance is 70% similar to Concubine Shu.
My son Xiao’s mother is very suitable.
After the eighth prince Ye Wen arrived at Shu Mansion, he first greeted Shu Wanglai and Madam Mu, and then Madam Mu led him to see Qi Yan.
This is the first time Qi Yan has seen this eighth prince. He was a royal hunting before, because the eighth prince is still young, he did not participate.
Now, as soon as the eighth prince saw Qi Yan, he immediately stepped forward and bowed in a manner, "See the Crown Princess."
"The Eighth Emperor Brother is exempt from gifts."
Qi Yan smiled on her face and helped the eighth prince.
After the eighth prince Ye Wen stood up straight, he then said, "After the Crown Princess went to Fengcheng, he rarely went back to Yanjing City. The mother also said she was worried about you. This time she came to Jingzhou, the mother gave me thousands of instructions to let me say hello to you after seeing the Crown Princess."
"Concubine Shu is so serious. She is an elder and I am a junior. I should say hello to Concubine Shu. However, there are so many trivial matters in Fengcheng, so I can't leave at will. I also ask the Eighth Prince to return to the palace and say a few good words to Concubine Shu for me."
Qi Yan responded with a sarcastic smile.
Concubine Shu really wants to cause trouble. As the Concubine, she doesn’t focus on the land in the harem and wants to pull herself into the water?
No way!
Qi Yan's reply made Mrs. Mu tighten her fingers.
The Eighth Prince Ye Wen was also stunned for a moment, then spread the topic open, "I came to Jingzhou, but I just came to learn how to defend the city from Yang Shouwei. My grandfather said that some of Yang Shouwei's views are worth learning from."
"Then I wish my brother the Eighth Emperor will succeed in his studies in Jingzhou."
Qi Yan's smile remained unabashed and then flattered her.
She didn't want to participate in such a tired social engagement at all.
If she hadn't come and attracted Mrs. Mu's attention, she would have given the Qiao brothers and sisters more time to deal with it.
When tonight passes, you can take action tomorrow.
By then, the Qiao brothers and sisters will only need to leave Jingzhou and the dust will be settled.
Even if Mrs. Mu has the ability to be invincible, she cannot bring people back from Southern Jin State!
The eighth prince Ye Wen followed Shu Wang to the front hall, attracting the heads of the famous families to meet. Qi Yan didn't care about this high-profile appearance at all.
She tilted her head and looked at Duan Luan sideways, "Aren't you going to tell me about Si Nanjian's situation?"
"Crown Princess... don't make things difficult for subordinates."
Duan Luan smiled bitterly.
Qi Yan chuckled, "I'm making things difficult for you? What do you say? Could it be that Si Nan Jian was valued by Emperor Yan? Is this a false thing?"
Duan Luan was confused for a while and finally replied: "It's true, it's just that Si Nanjian had a relationship with the female official. Concubine Shu blew the wind in the ears of Emperor Yan, so..."
"So, Si Nanjian has become the protector of the Eighth Prince Ye Wen? He is useless and has little talent! Concubine Shu is a short-sighted person. Why did Emperor Yan lose his own vision?"
Qi Yan frowned and looked disapproving.
Duan Luan was so angry that he didn't dare to breathe. He didn't dare to complain about Emperor Yan so openly.
This is Shu Mansion, so Qi Yan complained and stopped saying a word.
The banquet welcoming the Eighth Prince was held very lively, with opera singers and dancing.
When the banquet was over, the moon was hanging above my head.
Sitting in the carriage, he walked all the way to the Jingzhou Palace. When he was about to arrive, Qi Yan asked Mo Huan to park the carriage on the road and waited quietly.
She believed that Si Nanjian would definitely come to meet her when he saw her.
Since that's the case, she waited on this road.
After a stick of incense, Si Nanjian came alone. He stood outside the carriage and bowed with his fists, "Crown Princess, can I say a few words to you?"
"good."
Qi Yan lifted the curtain and said, "Come up. Mo Huan, don't be happy, Duan Luan, stay away from it."
"yes!"
The Mo sisters took the order to get off the carriage and retreated a hundred meters away to guard.
Duan Luan opened her mouth, and seemed to want to persuade her. When her eyes touched Qi Yan, she could only swallow them all and stop saying a word.
Soon, he had to retreat.
Si Nanjian boarded the carriage, Qi Yan looked at him, "General Si Nan, has lost a lot of weight."
"Crown Princess, I want to follow you."
