The leader of the Hundred Flowers Banquet has been selected, Concubine Yan no longer stayed, and left happily with everyone. The eldest princess returned home feeling sulky.
However, Concubine Yan came to ridicule her: "If you want to bet, you have to bet on the right person. I don't know where Princess Kangle fell in the eyes of the eldest princess. You didn't stand up for her before, but now you help her win the leader of the hundred flowers?"
I think the eldest princess has been away from the capital for too long and has not seen the current situation clearly. Princess Kangle's fate was not good. Her mother died on the day of the canonization, which aroused His Majesty's disgust.
I advise the eldest princess not to be a good person in vain, and not to harm yourself for the sake of an unpopular princess."
The eldest princess was a little annoyed when she heard this: "I don't need you to worry about my princess's affairs." She snorted coldly, swung her sleeves and strode away.
Concubine Yan sneered: "I don't know what is good and what is evil."
She has already said what needs to be said. If the eldest princess insists on going her own way and hooking up with Shen Wanyue, then no one can save her.
At the Flower Banquet.
Everyone was anxiously waiting for the news, and some people had already made bets. Only Mu Yun'an looked indifferent, eating cakes and drinking tea very comfortably.
Yuan Jiahe couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "Aren't you worried at all?"
Mu Yun'an smiled: "There is nothing to worry about."
Her purpose today was just to prove that she was not a waste and to avenge her previous shame. Now that she had done it, she had nothing to regret even if she did not get the title of Leader of the Hundred Flowers.
Yuan Jiahe admired her indifference and ease, and she said softly: "I seem to know why your brother Yi likes you?"
Mu Yunan blinked and asked curiously: "Why?"
Yuan Jiahe said: "Don't you think you are different from other noble ladies?"
"Is there any?"
Mu Yun'an was a little unaware. She didn't feel that she was any different from other people.
But Yuan Jiahe saw it, and she said firmly: "Yes, among all the ladies attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet today, who would not want to be the leader of the Hundred Flowers and be envied by everyone, but you are the only one who doesn't care about the results and does not pursue fame and fortune."
Mu Yun'an chuckled and whispered: "They care about fame and fortune. They want to be in the spotlight because they want to find a good home. But I already have it, so of course I don't care."
Yuan Jiahe: "..."
What he said made sense, but she was speechless to refute.
Just as I was thinking about it, everyone started to get restless, but the eldest princess came back, but her face was not very good, and she sat on the chair after she came back.
Not long after, Concubine Yan also arrived, followed by His Majesty's Zhou Quan.
Zhou Quan glanced at everyone, and then said loudly: "His Majesty has decreed that this year the leader of hundreds of flowers will be the owner of the splash-ink landscape painting, Princess Huihe. As a token of appreciation, the princess of Huihe County will be granted the title of Princess Huihe and enjoy the honor of a princess.
I admire this."
After hearing this decree, Mu Yun'an was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing and stood up in a hurry to salute and thank him.
Zhou Quan said with a smile: "Congratulations to the princess, the princess's reward and imperial edict will be sent to the general's mansion later."
