The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 303

The guests arrived one after another. Most of them were people that Qingyan knew, but she didn't expect that both the members of Su Mansion and the Luo Mansion would also attend the banquet at the same time.

Chai Yiyun also brought Su Qingwen to the banquet. Su Qingwen dressed like the principal concubine. She was about to marry the Third Prince after next spring.

But she had never expected that Xuanyuan Yvzhe would bring Shaoyao with him to attend this banquet.

When Shaoyao saw Qingyan standing beside Jingshu, she whispered in Xuanyuan Yvzhe's ear, "Your Highness, Junzhu will marry Wenxuan Lord's son, so we should have a good relationship with them. It's not worth to scramble for the throne."

Shaoyao nodded earnestly. In fact, Shaoyao's words made sense. Moreover, he didn't want to be the emperor, especially after he knew his identity. And the only thing he wanted to do now was to spend the rest of his life with Shaoyao.

"Uncle, aunt." Xuanyuan Yvzhe walked to them and spoke loudly, "I thought it's your birthday today, so I gave this gift to you."

As soon as Shaoyao saw the expression on Xuanyuan Yvzhe's face, she immediately handed over the box in her hand. "I hope you like it."

"You're welcome. It's a family banquet today, but don't be so restrained," said Jingshu with a smile, taking the box from her hand.

Xuanyuan Yvzhe looked at her and nodded seriously and then stood aside with Shaoyao. At the sight of this, Su Qingwen showed an unpleasant expression.

Xuanyuan Yvzhen and the other young men also presented their birthday gifts. Then, they sat together, waiting for the start of the banquet. This birthday banquet didn't look different from the previous ones. The opening ceremony of song and dance performance quickly made them lost their interest, and they were chatting with the people around them.

Seeing this, Murong Jingxuan walked to the center and said to Jingshu with a smile, "mother, I heard that the girls in the Capital City are more talented than the girls in the south region. Why don't you allow them to perform one by one? It will also be an unexpected surprise to mother."

Hearing Murong Jingxuan's words, Jingshu nodded with a smile and said, "that would be great."

Qingyan looked at Murong Jingxuan and then at Jinshu. She walked down Jingshu with a smile and bowed to her, "May I perform a dance for you?"

Jingshu nodded with a smile, "okay."

Qingyan on the stage. The whole stage was covered by the long, melodious sound of flute. When the lantern was lit up, Qingyan in a red dress standig up in the middle.

Qingyan danced very casually. Her red dress fit her very well, and with the dim candle light thrown out by the long sleeves and the light gradually showed in the sky, as if everything just happened was like a dream.

Then only the girl in red stood in the middle of the room. "Mother, do you like it?"

Jingshu didn't expect that Qingyan could offer such an excellent performance. SQingyan walk to her slowly and take her hand. Qingyan smiled at them and said, "As the daughter of Marquis Dingguo, you deserve the tile and qualified to marry my son."
