Chapter 867 - 867 Royal Family Banquet
867 Royal Family Banquet
“Ah?” Jiang Wen was a little surprised, but she immediately gloated. “Haha, no matter who’s the tougher one, one of them will die when they meet. No matter who dies, it will be beneficial to us!”
Wen Yujing nodded and said, “That’s right! So, Wen ‘Er, when you see that fiend later, you have to hide your expression no matter what. Don’t let that fiend get a hold of your weakness and reprimand you! After he accepts this marriage, his time will come.”
However, Jiang Wen was a little puzzled and asked, ” mother, who is this woman? And why did you say that he would suffer after marrying this woman?”
The two of them were jinxes. What did it have to do with them?
Wen Yujing looked around, then whispered a few words into Jiang Wen’s ear.
Jiang Wen’s eyes widened, and then she said in surprise, ” mother, are you serious? ”
“That’s right!” Wen Yujing nodded and said, ” so, Wen ‘er, no matter how angry you get at the banquet, you must endure it, understand? ”
Jiang Wen nodded and promised, ” yes, mother, I got it!”
The people arrived one after another!
The Imperial garden was decorated with lanterns and streamers. There were more than 20 tables, each with some exquisite fruits and wine.
Without a doubt, the Emperor and Empress Chen Wanyue were seated at the table in the very front and middle.
On the right was the Imperial Noble Consort Zhou Yuexin, and on the left was Jiang Zhennan, who was sitting next to the Emperor.
Next to Jiang Zhennan were the Crown Prince, Yuwen Yuyu, and his wife, Ye Yao. On the right were the third Prince, Yuwen feiye, and his wife.
After that, to the left were the third Prince’s eldest grandson, Yuwen Xuhong, Prince Ping, the Prime Minister’s Chen family, and Duke Guo’s mansion …
On the right was the gong Prince, the second Prince, the fifth Prince, the eighth prince, and the Zhou family’s Zhengguo party …
“Crown Prince, Prince Ping …”
“Gong Prince, third Prince …”
These people greeted each other as soon as they saw each other.
When Jiang Yunfeng arrived there with his wife and children, he couldn’t wait to greet the Royal nobles.
“Lord Chen!” Prime Minister Chen Liangzhi of the Chen Manor was from the maiden family of the Empress.
Lord Chen nodded politely and looked at Jiang Yunfeng with a smile. “Duke Jiang!”
Then, he saw his son and daughter, Jiang Zhenye and Jiang Wen, standing next to him. He laughed and said, ” Duke Jiang, you’re so lucky. Both your children are getting more and more handsome and beautiful!”
“Hello, Uncle Chen!” Jiang Zhenye and Jiang Wen greeted him politely.
Jiang Wen’s mouth was sweet. She smiled and said, ” Uncle Chen is really getting younger and younger!”
Prime Minister Chen laughed. “Wen ‘er is getting more and more beautiful! Is any marriage candidate knocking on your parent’s door yet?”
The last sentence was just a casual question.
Wen Yujing smiled and replied, ” not yet. Wen ‘er is still young, and I’m still reluctant to let Wen’ er leave, so I plan to let her stay with me for a few more years.”
Prime Minister Chen’s wife smiled and replied, ” Madam Jiang, this is your fault. Even if you can’t bear to part with her, this daughter still has to be married when it’s the time!”
Then, she looked at Jiang Wen and said with a smile, “Wen ‘er is so beautiful, virtuous, and dignified. I heard that she’s an excellent dancer. Which young master wouldn’t want to marry her?”
Wen Yujing laughed. “you’re right, Mrs. Chen! It seems that I have to start looking!”
“Mother!” Jiang Wen’s face was red as she shouted in embarrassment.
“Haha, Wen ‘er is shy!” Madam Chen said jokingly, ” Speaking of which, I have a candidate. He’s handsome and very talented. His family background is also compatible with your Duke Zhengguo mansion. If they can get together, they’ll be a match made in heaven.”
Wen Yujing’s face stiffened for a moment, then she smiled and asked happily, ” which young master are you talking about, Mrs. Chen? ”
Mrs. Chen covered her mouth and smiled. “of course, it’s the young master of Duke Guo’s mansion, Guo Bing!”
This time, Wen Yujing, who was pretending to be happy, froze.
When Jiang Yunfeng and Prime Minister Chen were talking, his expression immediately stiffened for a moment when he heard Mrs. Chen’s words.
However, their expressions quickly disappeared.
However, their son and daughter were people who could not hide their emotions and expressions.
When Jiang Zhenye heard Guo Bing’s name, his face reflexively showed disdain and contempt.
He said, ” that sissy is not worthy of my sister!” In fact, he was extremely jealous of Guo Bing’s appearance.
Because that kind of stunning appearance would definitely win the favor of many women.
Jiang Wen, on the other hand, lost her composure and shouted, ” I don’t want to marry that sissy!”
She was also jealous of Guo Bing’s looks.
A grown man actually looked more beautiful than a woman. How could she stand that?
Prime Minister Chen and Mrs. Chen’s faces immediately darkened.
Prime Minister Chen’s expression was not good. “Duke Jiang, my wife and I still have something to do. We’ll take our leave first!
In his heart, his impression of Jiang Yunfeng’s son and daughter had plummeted.
They were really brainless!
Jiang Yunfeng and Wen Yujing awkwardly nodded to Prime Minister Chen and his wife.
When no one was paying attention to their family for a moment, Jiang Yunfeng glared at his son and daughter with an ugly expression.
Then, his eyes could not help but fall on Jiang Zhennan, who was sitting quietly by himself, as if he was out of tune with the world.
Jiang Zhennan did not greet anyone, and no one came forward to greet him. It was as if he had been forgotten, but in fact, his aura was so strong that it was impossible to ignore it.
Which of these princes didn’t want to come forward and interact with Jiang Zhennan? However, Jiang Zhennan didn’t respond to anyone. The princes felt like they were talking to a statue. It made people speechless and embarrassed. They were both embarrassed and angry, but they couldn’t do anything to Jiang Zhennan.
Jiang Zhennan was the emperor’s favorite person.
It was like this every year. After that, no Prince would purposely go up to Jiang Zhennan for him to give them the cold shoulder.
Therefore, at every gathering, before the Emperor arrived, he would sit alone in his seat, drinking wine and eating fruits!
Jiang Yunfeng looked at Jiang Zhennan, who was drinking by himself, and his eyes were burning with anger. He wanted to kill him and burn him to death right now.
But he didn’t dare to!
Now that his son and daughter had lost face in front of everyone, Jiang Zhennan’s independence made him even angrier.
He strode over to Jiang Zhennan and scolded him sternly, ” you unfilial son, what did you do to Ye ‘er and Wen’ er a while ago? They were so frightened that they had a high fever for three days and three nights as soon as they returned to the residence!”
To be honest, Jiang Yunfeng was just venting his anger.
His son and daughter had made him lose face on such an occasion, so Jiang Zhennan became his punching bag.
Jiang Zhennan was his son. Even if he was now in a high position with great power and was a popular person appreciated by the Emperor, as long as he was his son, he had the right to reprimand Jiang Zhennan. No one could say anything, not even the Emperor could stop him.
Therefore, Jiang Yunfeng did not care about the occasion and suddenly questioned Jiang Zhennan.
Hearing Jiang Yunfeng reprimanding Jiang Zhennan, the crowd suddenly quieted down.
Then, everyone just looked at the father and son.
Jiang Zhennan did not even lift his eyelids. He continued to drink the wine in his glass and said coldly, ” they made a big fuss in my residence. I was tired of listening to them, so I had people drive them out of the general’s residence!”
At this point, he raised his eyes slightly and shot a sharp gaze at Jiang Yunfeng. He said coldly, ” why? Does the Duke want to seek justice for his son and daughter? ”
