The prince can read minds! I just want to be a princess and have a bad time

Chapter 333: Banquet at the Royal Palace (1)

In the study of a certain mansion, a stunning woman in white brocade clothes heard the servant's report and chuckled twice, saying, "Father, it seems that this Princess Zhuo is different from the rumors. As soon as we went to that station, she actually lost her composure and started a quarrel with the prince, hehe!"

Several people took their seats. Bai Sixi sat next to You Nanxiao and took a sip of the tea poured by the maids. She felt that the tea did not have the fragrance of jasmine and was a bit bitter.

The father the woman mentioned sat down at the desk, and his smile faded a little when he heard what his daughter said.

The young man at the side asked tentatively, "I heard that Prince Zhuo said he would not take concubines, and he cannot divorce his wife even if the emperor granted the marriage. Do you want to be a concubine?"

The woman smiled lightly, fiddling with the teacup in her hands, and said with a hint of sarcasm, "I'm not that fool that Daixue is. Prince Zhuo is just the most suitable husband candidate for me. I don't need him to love me. Feelings are the most useless thing. As long as we can provide conditions that Prince Zhuo's family can't refuse, what's the difficulty in changing to a co-wife?"

The young man thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He looked at his sister lovingly and said, "But Daixue's previous actions have probably consumed Prince Zhuo's good impression of our Tan family. Yao'er, are you sure?"

Tan Fuyao smiled slightly, her mouth full of pride as if she had won.

Seeing that the brother and sister were speaking more and more bluntly, the old father who was writing at the desk frowned and said, "Zhao'er, Yao'er, that's your biological sister."

"I don't have a biological sister born to a concubine," Tan Zhao said in a low voice. Seeing that his father was still staring at him, he said, "I know."

The three days passed quickly.

On the day of the banquet, the prosperity of Zhuocheng could be described as "bustling with traffic". The streets were bustling with traffic, and all kinds of exquisite carriages engraved with family crests were parked outside the palace, forming a beautiful landscape.

It seemed as if this lively way was announcing the return of its master to this city that had been silent for twelve years.

The Zhuo Palace was filled with joy early in the morning. The princess was less than three months pregnant, and Lu Yingxing was very traditional and refused to announce it to the public, but he did not sideline her in the name of love or force her to rest.

In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t want to, but he doesn’t know how to plan and build a workshop...

"Greetings, Princess." Zhan Chun, Zhan Xia, Zhan Qiu, Zhan Dong, and Bao'er rushed back last night and came to pay their respects early this morning.

Shen Yu looked at his trusted generals who were rarely seen together, and smiled with a look of despair, "Why are you here so early? The nanny asked me to do a hairstyle."

Then she pretended to cry, which made the servants laugh. Their princess was so funny, interesting and approachable, which made the nervous old servants of Zhuocheng feel relieved. They were not afraid that the princess would be difficult to serve, but they were afraid that she would not treat them as human beings.

Nanny Zhang, who was fiddling with the hair ornament behind her ear, laughed and said, "It's been a long time since I came back. There's no mistress in the mansion. My craftsmanship is going bad. Could the princess bear to see such a beautiful hair bun lost?"

Shen Yu raised his head and looked at himself in the mirror. His head was like a small work of art, with a bun that looked like a pile of clouds and was exquisitely made. It would be a pity if this unique charm was lost, so he had to resign himself to accept the manipulation.

Zhan Chun and the others who had been standing behind him couldn't help but sigh in their hearts when they saw Shen Yu's frustrated look.

Regardless of their status, the young ladies were always friendly and natural to those around them. In fact, they all understood that the young lady had sent them out to manage the workers in Los Angeles and had no intention of calling them back to serve her...

There was a sense of loss, but there was more gratitude. No matter whether she was Yu Ling or Princess Zhuo, she was trying her best to find a way out for them.

Among the few people, only Baoer was unhappy. He lowered his head and looked sad without saying a word. Shen Yu couldn't ignore him even if he wanted to.

"What happened to our little treasure? Who bullied you?"

It would have been fine if she hadn't asked. As soon as she asked, Bao'er couldn't stop feeling wronged. She didn't care about respect or propriety. "It's just that the young lady bullied me. The young lady said that I would stay with you for the rest of my life. Why don't you want me so soon? I have studied martial arts and housekeeping well. Can the young lady let me follow you?"

Even the servants came out, which showed that they were really wronged. Ever since they were sent out to be the stewards, Shen Yu didn't allow them to call themselves servants anymore, which gave him a headache.

He pulled her close to him and comforted her, "Bao'er, you grew up with me, and in my heart you are all my sisters. Although you are sometimes silly, I heard from Zhan Qiu that you are very capable, can manage the workshop, are good at coordinating the relationships between different people, have perfect communication skills, and can calculate and manage accounts. If I don't put a management talent like you out there to work for me, why should I keep you by my side?"

"Sister Zhan Qiu is just being polite. She lied to you. I can't do anything, really!" Bao'er was afraid that she didn't believe him, so his eyes were very sincere. "Bao'er doesn't want to be a slave outside. I just want to be with the young lady. I've also become your apprentice, so that the nanny's craft won't be lost... Didn't the young lady say I was stupid? What if I get hurt if you don't watch over me? I can also get information. You know I'm good at this. Aren't all the noble ladies coming to your house today? Young lady, aren't you afraid that some little demons will come to your house? Didn't you say that knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle? You..."

"Pfft..."

Aunt Zhang behind her couldn't stand it any longer. This child is just having fun. Others are eager to go out and become managers, but she has the ability to stay. But it's good this way. There are definitely not many people around the princess who can be used, and there are many eyes and ears in this courtyard...

Shen Yu had already thought about it, that he would hand over the management of several major workshops to them and he could be a hands-off boss. However, he could not resist Baoer's tears and Zhan Chun and others' persuasion, so he nodded and agreed.

Baoer stayed happily and suggested that Sister Guyu be replaced to manage the workshop? She should be a maid? Then she successfully got a roll of the eyes from Guyu, thank you for the invitation, I am a guard.

"Mrs. and Miss Tan are here!"

As the servants at the door called out their names, the ladies who had arrived at the palace a long time ago all turned around and looked towards the door.

A beautiful girl in moon-white clothes walked out of the carriage with the Tan family seal. She had fair skin and beautiful features, hair like flowing clouds, outstanding temperament, and picturesque features. She wore a phoenix hairpin inlaid with kingfisher feathers and sapphires in her hair, a piece of warm green jade tied around her waist, and a light blue silk gauze with carved patterns and gold threads on her arms. She looked elegant and generous, and people could not help but like her at first sight.

Several luxurious carriages engraved with the unique emblem of the Tan family, raised their curtains one after another, and a young girl dressed in a crescent-shaped white cloud dress walked out leisurely. Her skin was as white as cream, her face was stunning, and her hair was like the mist lingering in the mountains, natural and lively. This was an elegance and indifference emanating from her bones that was unforgettable at first sight.

In contrast, Tan Daixue, who got out of another carriage, had such a weak demeanor that she inevitably seemed pretentious.

The ladies and girls who were qualified to attend the banquet in the palace, who was not a shrewd person? Although Tan Daixue's ugly behavior at the post station had long been spread, no one would be so tactful as to mention it. Even if they wanted to make fun of her, they would only dare to do so in private. Who would dare to offend the Tan family behind her?
