After a while, the weather started to get warmer.

The rain from the apricot blossoms is wetting my clothes, the wind from the willow trees is not cold on my face. The east wind has entered the capital, and the willow trees on the river banks have turned green.

The situation in the capital was ambiguous and unclear. Another daughter of the Zheng family was betrothed to the prince, so that the Seventh Prince's mansion changed from its former desertedness to become bustling and prosperous.

Xiao Chengji had already changed into light clothes, but Yan Yu was weak and afraid of the cold, so he was still wearing padded clothes.

"Today is the Seventh Prince's wedding, there are so many people at the banquet, you should drink less." Yan Yu straightened Xiao Chengji's clothes, "It's best not to drink."

Xiao Chengji uttered an absentminded "hmm".

Yan Yu smiled slightly: "You go first, Princess Xianyi and I will go together."

She was attending someone else's wedding banquet today, so she naturally made up carefully, with crimson plum blossom ornaments stuck between her eyebrows and eyes, making her eyes look particularly lively.

Xiao Chengji didn't want to go out anymore, so he hugged Yan Yu, kissed her twice, and then pushed her onto the couch.

Huoha, who was waiting outside, was anxious and urged cautiously several times.

Yan Yu pushed Xiao Chengji and said, "The clothes are going to get messed up, go quickly."

Xiao Chengji said: "There are so many people here, you shouldn't go."

He was not very willing to let Yan Yu appear in public. Xiao Chengji's possessiveness and desire for control were ridiculously strong. He only wanted to keep his wife in his own home and was unwilling to let others see her.

Yan Yu said: "How can this be possible? The Fifth Prince's Consort and the Sixth Prince's Consort have both gone. If I don't go, it would seem like I look down on the Seventh Prince's Consort."

Xiao Chengji hugged Yan Yu's waist and said, "Then go home early, don't talk to anyone casually, and ignore other people."

Yan Yu nodded: "Okay."

When Princess Xianyi came over, Yan Yu discovered that Liang Qingxue, the third daughter of the Liang family, was also in the carriage.

Princess Xianyi had no choice. The girl was still unmarried, and Liang Qingxue's parents insisted that Princess Xianyi find her a suitable husband. Liang Qingxue had been staying in the princess's mansion these days, and she had to be taken out for any social events.

There are only so many girls in the Liang family. Even if Princess Xianyi wants to be cruel and ignore them, she has to consider her reputation.

Liang Qingxue was not very happy that the Seventh Prince married the daughter of Zheng family this time.

The last time she met the Seventh Prince, she had a very good impression of him. It was a pity that the Seventh Prince was close to the Fifth Prince, and the Fifth Prince was related to the Zheng family. Princess Xianyi had a grudge against the Zheng family, as Liang Qingxue's uncle died because of the Zheng family. Princess Xianyi refused to introduce her to this marriage.

If Liang Qingxue were to say, there is no hatred in the world that cannot be resolved, and Princess Xianyi is too narrow-minded to be so petty.

Now seeing Princess Xianyi bringing Yan Yu with her again, Liang Qingxue felt uncomfortable, and her expression was not in a good mood after seeing Yan Yu.

Seeing that Miss Liang San was in Princess Xianyi's carriage, Yan Yu didn't want to ride in Princess Xianyi's carriage anymore.

Yan Yu could see that Miss Liang San didn't like him.

She smiled and said, "Aunt, I was going to send someone to tell you, but the prince prepared a carriage for me and said it would be inappropriate for me to bother you to come pick me up."

Princess Xianyi felt bored along the way. She had nothing to say to Liang Qingxue and wanted to talk to Yan Yu. Seeing Yan Yu's words, Princess Xianyi understood what he meant and said with a smile: "What's the trouble? It's just on the way. It seems that the prince loves you and is afraid that you will be squeezed."

When we arrived at the Seventh Prince's residence, we had brought most of the royal family's wives with us.

Wei Ruxuan was sitting in the middle and talking with a beaming look on her face. Ever since she was named the queen, she could hold her head high and speak with more confidence.

Others would give her face because she was the fifth prince's consort.

Seeing Princess Xianyi and Yan Yu coming in together, Wei Ruxuan glanced at them, snorted coldly, and pretended not to see them.

Yan Yu and Princess Xianyi went to talk to the Sixth Prince's wife.

The Sixth Prince's wife, Mrs. Xia, married into the family after the New Year. She was young and lively, and had a talkative and cheerful personality. She had a very harmonious relationship with the Sixth Prince.

Xia liked Yan Yu very much. She had often visited the Qin Palace to see Yan Yu a few days ago. Now when she saw Yan Yu coming, she smiled and asked Yan Yu to sit down: "Third sister-in-law, Princess, come and try this pine nut pastry, it's especially sweet."

Yan Yu smiled and said, "You came so early? This peony hairpin inlaid with gems and pearls looks really beautiful on your head."

Xia's eyes lit up instantly. She came so early, expecting someone to praise her. After waiting for a long time, only Yan Yu praised her: "Really? This was given to me by Sixth Master yesterday."

"Sixth Master has a good eye."

Xia was very happy: "The peonies in our garden are in bloom. Sister-in-law, Princess, please come and see them when you are free. I will prepare a nice banquet for you and bring out all the fine wines that Sixth Master has collected."

Princess Xianyi smiled and said, "Great! I have never been to your house before."

Wei Ruxuan was so angry that her face turned blue when she saw that they were talking without mentioning her.

Liang Qingxue standing by was also unhappy. Along the way, she only saw people greeting Yan Yu and Princess Xianyi, but no one paid any attention to her.

Wei Ruxuan laughed and said, "Someone actually praised such a tacky hairpin as beautiful. It shows how good your taste is."

The Sixth Prince's wife looked at Wei Ruxuan with ill intent: "Fifth sister-in-law is dressed very well. Tsk tsk, I thought she was a peacock that ran out from somewhere."

Wei Ruxuan was furious: "You——"

She whispered, "I'll ask the Queen to deal with Concubine Xia and you later."

Now Concubine Xia is temporarily in charge of the harem affairs. It is not easy to deal with Concubine Xia. The Sixth Prince's wife is not afraid of her and looks away with her neck stiff.

Liang Qingxue saw that there was no point in their bickering, so she sneaked out alone.

She had never been to the prince's palace before. Before she came, she heard from some people that the guests at the Seventh Prince's wedding today would basically be members of the royal family and powerful officials.

She didn't think highly of the families that Princess Xianyi had introduced to her before.

Today is a rare opportunity.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Liang Qingxue finally saw a young man. She hid behind a rockery and listened to their conversation between master and servant.

Huo Ha said: "Your Highness, the Fifth Prince has not come yet, but the Fifth Prince's wife has come. I wonder if she will come."

Ever since learning that the Seventh Prince was engaged to the Zheng family, Xiao Jiashan has never paid any attention to Xiao Qiru again.

Xiao Jiashan had no intention of marrying Zheng's cousin, but he didn't want Xiao Qirui to take advantage of her.

Now that Xiao Qirui has become famous thanks to the Zheng family's support, Xiao Jiashan always feels that he has been betrayed by his own brother.

Then he thought about it carefully, and found that among the four brothers who were married, his wife was the least decent.

In the past, Xiao Jiashan despised Yan Yu because her father and brother were both dead. Now he realized that even though all the people in the Wen family were dead, Yan Yu's identity as the only daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo was still respected.
