Su Qingcheng didn't know anything about becoming the center of everyone's conversation.

Everything in front of her was unfamiliar to her. After finding her place, she sat down and quietly observed the situation of the Dongling royal family.

Dongling is not as complicated as Nanye. Since ancient times, the most capable have risen to the top. Among the many princes, Ouyang Yu and Ouyang Yi are the best in terms of family background, personal qualities and abilities.

As a result, two factions were formed, headed by two brothers. The battle for the throne has always been an open matter in Dongling, and even the seats were allocated according to the princes supported by each family.

Su Qingcheng is the cousin of the eldest princess, and Shen Kangnian, the eldest princess's fiancée, is a supporter of the third prince, so she is placed on the third prince's side.

But obviously, there is no airtight wall in the world. The arrow Su Qingcheng shot at the Autumn Harvest Banquet should have been passed on.

Therefore, even if she sat next to the third prince, people around her avoided her, not wanting to sit with the person who had taken action against the third prince.

When the time came, the emperor and the empress sat down surrounded by each other. Unlike Emperor Nanye who was so mature, Emperor Dongling looked a bit young, with eyebrows like sharp swords and a pair of black eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Under the emperor was Ye Tantai. Su Qingcheng raised her eyes and happened to meet the man's eyes. The two looked at each other, and the corners of the man's lips were slightly raised, which was very beautiful.

Su Qingcheng recalled what he said about committing herself to her, and felt a little uneasy, so she looked away.

"Princess, the eldest princess is here." Su Qingcheng followed the maid's words and looked at the eldest princess who was sitting not far away from her.

Something is wrong, something is wrong with this princess.

During these days at the Princess Mansion, Su Qingcheng knew the preferences of the eldest princess and Mr. Hao very well. She liked plain colors, her clothes were low-key and simple on weekdays, and her whole person was calm and majestic.

And the eldest princess in front of me, in gorgeous golden clothes, would like to hang all the accessories on her head...

"Who chose the princess's clothes?" she asked.

The maid came from the princess's house. She shook her head and said, "I don't know, but it is usually decided by the eldest princess herself. Just like the princess, the slaves will bring out several sets of clothes for the master to choose."

Su Qingcheng suddenly had an idea. The eldest princess in front of her was not the person she spent day and night with in the princess mansion, but the person who declared war on the emperor when they were in Nanye.

She thought of a way to find out whether it was what she thought...

The eldest princess sat next to Shen Kangnian, and the two looked at each other happily talking.

Just now, the maid next to Su Qingcheng brought a plate of lychees and said, "Princess, the princess specially asked the Shangshi Bureau to send this to you. She said that you took a bite of lychees yesterday."

The eldest princess said indifferently: "Put it there."

Shen Kangnian changed his expression. Only he and Scar Man knew about the third prince's kidnapping of Princess Nan'an. When he went to the dungeon last night, he saw Scar Man's body. Princess Nan'an who was originally tied there also didn't know. trace.

"That cousin of yours is so kind to you. Why haven't I heard that you have a cousin before?" The eldest princess picked up Lychee's hand and paused, saying, "My cousin and I haven't seen each other for a long time. If it weren't for our wedding banquet, she I’m afraid I won’t come to Haojing either.”

"I'm here to help you," Shen Kangnian took the lychee from the eldest princess's hand and peeled it for her. The woman smiled shyly, and Shen Kangnian said gently, "Our wedding banquet is coming soon, so you can't hurt your delicate hands."

"Shen Lang, you are so considerate."

The Grand Duke proposed to eat the sweet lychee, and the juice burst in his mouth, full of happiness.

Su Qingcheng, who was quietly observing all this on the other side, was thoughtful. According to her understanding, the eldest princess in the princess mansion did not like to eat lychees, and she did not mention her desire to eat them yesterday.

It seems that this princess is not really a princess and will only attend such important occasions.

"Is the eldest princess... always at the princess's residence?" Su Qingcheng asked tentatively.

Mr. Hao looks younger than Nanny Qin said. He is probably only five or six years old. The eldest princess gave birth to him in ten months of pregnancy. It must be difficult to hide it from the entire princess house.

"I have been here at the Princess Mansion for ten years, and the eldest princess has never traveled far." The maid said.

"Then when did Mr. Hao come to the princess's residence?"

The maid thought for a moment and said, "Mama Qin's daughter-in-law died in childbirth. She seemed to have carried her to her as soon as she was born. Aunt Qin is the eldest princess's nanny. The eldest princess has a kind heart and regards Mr. Hao as her own."

"I see."

Su Qingcheng already had the answer in her mind. It seemed that not many people knew about the real and fake princess. She looked towards the eldest princess and Shen Kangnian, they looked so affectionate.

At this moment, Emperor Dongling raised his glass and said: "Let us all raise our glasses together to welcome our guest from afar, King Nanye Yunan."

"Welcome to King Yunan!"

Ye Tantai stood up and said generously: "Dongling has outstanding people, and I like them very much."

"King Yu Nan still has the habit of living in Dongling? If you have any needs, just ask and treat this place as your own home." Emperor Dongling said.

Su Qingcheng was slightly surprised.

At the moment, Dong Ling is looking for help from Nanye, but this Emperor Dong Ling's attitude towards Ye Tantai is not just flattery, but sincerely treats guests with enthusiasm. This is not in line with what she knows about Emperor Dong Ling. image of.

According to various records in Nanye, Emperor Dongling was an enigmatic and thoughtful person.

"The emperor is welcome. I have been fighting for many years and have a home all over the world. I quickly adapted to it." Ye Tantai said with a smile.

"Hahaha, then King Yunan can just settle down in Dongling," Emperor Dongling said with a hint of cunning in his eyes. He always disliked using unscrupulous means to achieve his goals. Even if he had to resort to tricks, he would do so blatantly. "I heard that the relationship between King Yunan and the princess is not going well. I have many beautiful women in Dongling. If one day King Yunan falls in love with someone, just speak up."

The fox's tail is exposed. If Ye Tantai brings a Dongling woman back, his popularity among the people in Nanye will inevitably drop greatly. Moreover, with the suspicious temperament of Emperor Nanye, Ye Tantai will probably be suspected of treason.

This is an attempt to use a honey trap to sow discord.

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, a group of dancers in strange costumes came to the center of the hall and danced to the drums, but the sound of the drums...

Su Qingcheng frowned slightly. The sound of the drum was obviously disturbing to people's minds. Many men on the field looked at the dancers with mesmerized expressions.

The most eye-catching woman among them, the one in the middle, Su Qingcheng noticed that she was approaching Ye Tantai intentionally or unintentionally, as if she came for him.

Emperor Dong Ling looked at the two of them meaningfully and said, "This is the youngest daughter of the Shen family in Dong Ling, Shen Baiwei. It can be said that she is famous in Dong Ling. What do you think of King Yu Nan?"

After the song ended, the other dancers left the stage one after another, leaving Shen Baiwei alone in the main hall.

"Not bad." Ye Tantai looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with unclear eyes.
