After the banquet started, the third princess took Tang Wanqing to find Shangguan Liuying and the three of them sat together. "Liuying, the general is so powerful. I heard that something unpleasant happened outside just now?"

Tang Wanqing also agreed, "Yes, the general is the only one who can ride a horse and carry a sword in the palace. This honor alone is enviable."

Shangguan Liuying sneered in his heart and kept a calm expression on his face, "Father said that capable people often encounter the jealousy of villains and being criticized behind their backs. He is already used to it."

The corners of the third princess's mouth twitched. Was this a sign that they were villains?

Tang Wanqing lowered her head and her eyes were gloomy. Shangguan Liuying had changed a lot recently. Did she see something, or was she just pretending before?

There was singing and dancing at the banquet, people's hearts were different, and the smiles on everyone's faces were similar, as if they were wearing a mask. Shangguan Liuying found it extremely boring. Just when she was about to go out for some fresh air, the old emperor suddenly mentioned her.

"This girl Liuying has become more and more beautiful in the past two years. She is not young anymore. Is it time for marriage? I already have a candidate in mind. I don't know what you mean?" The old emperor smiled and looked up. The official is cold.

His words caused quite a commotion below, and many people looked at Shangguan Liuying with eager eyes.

Shangguan Liuying's death can represent the General's Palace. If he can get the support of the General's Palace...

"Father!" The prince was even more anxious.

The old emperor took in all the expressions of these people and continued to look at Shangguan Han calmly. The latter smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, but I am often away from the capital and I really don't want my only daughter to get married so early. She is not very old, I would like to keep her for a few more years."

"But I heard that this girl Liuying didn't think so," the old emperor looked at Shangguan Liuying teasingly, "Girl, tell me, it's okay. I'm here, and your father doesn't dare to do anything to you. What's the matter? To put it bluntly.”

Shangguan Liuying wondered when did she show that she hated getting married so much? So that the old emperor misunderstood? Or did the old emperor do it on purpose, deliberately throwing difficult problems to her?

Just when she was thinking about what to say, the third princess spoke casually, "Liuying, don't be afraid, you forgot that you said..."

Shangguan Liuying's eyes turned cold. She was waiting for her here. She immediately interrupted the third princess, "I told you that I don't want to get married yet." Then she looked at the old emperor with a shy face, "Uncle Huang, I still want to marry." I don’t want to get married, I also want to spend a few more years with my dad.”

She knew that if the third princess was allowed to continue talking, she would most likely get involved with the prince, which was the last thing she wanted.

The third princess looked unwilling, "But you obviously..."

The queen interrupted her again, "Okay, Mingyue, it's just a private chat in the boudoir, don't take it too seriously."

If they take it seriously, they will lose. There is no need.

The prince frowned and looked at Shangguan Liuying. He didn't expect that the third princess suddenly spoke, but he knew that the third princess was also doing it for him, but Liuying's attitude cast a shadow on his heart. He didn't know when Shangguan Liuying started to get more and more angry. The more I resisted him.

Shangguan Han laughed loudly at this time, "It seems that we, father and daughter, have thought of getting together. Your Majesty, in that case, Liu Ying's marriage should be put on hold for the time being. Our general's palace will not be able to support a young lady."

The old emperor rolled his eyes and then smiled and said: "Of course, in this case, I won't make any mistakes, but if Liu Ying wants to get married in the future, I will grant you a marriage."

"Thank you for your favor, Your Majesty."

"Thank you, Uncle Huang."

The father and daughter looked at each other. This banquet was really a drunken party and not about drinking.

Many people were just watching the fun. The seventh prince swayed the wine in his glass and whispered to the third prince beside him, "Why did I feel that you seemed so nervous just now? Third brother, look at your sleeves."

The third prince's sleeves were wrinkled, which was caused by hard gripping.

"I'm a little uncomfortable," the third prince looked at the seventh prince calmly, "I'm going out for a while and I'll be back soon."

"Hey, third brother, where are you going? I was kidding you!"

The departure of the third prince did not attract much attention, but Shangguan Liuying saw it from the corner of her eye. Her heart moved slightly. The third prince had looked at her several times just now.

Just as she was about to get up, Liu Mei suddenly stopped her, "Liu Ying, where are you going?"

At this time, the wives around Liu Mei were looking at her, and Shangguan Liuying found it hard to leave.

She smiled and sat down again, "Just stand up and move around. Why is aunt so nervous?"

Liu Mei smiled and said, "This kid, when did my aunt stop being nervous about you?"

Shangguan Liuying had a smile on her face, but she didn't think so in her heart. She only regarded Liu Mei as a way to show her intimacy with her.

Just when Shangguan Liuying felt that the banquet was about to end, the queen and Tang Wanqing looked at each other and suddenly spoke.

She first looked at Shangguan Han, and then looked at the emperor with a smile, "Your Majesty, I have a happy event for my concubine. I don't know whether I should tell you or not."

Shangguan Liuying's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She subconsciously thought of Liu Mei, and then looked at Shangguan Han worriedly. She knew that what the queen said must not be a good thing!

I wonder what the Queen has prepared for them and their daughter.
