"That's right! Your father's income is only enough for the daily expenses of the residence. How can he have the money to do other things? Fortunately, you and the Second Prince are helping.”Eldest Concubine said earnestly.
"Mother, don't say that anymore. If you continue to say that, it will hurt our relationship.”Li Ziqi interrupted Eldest Concubine.
"What are Father and the Second Prince doing? It feels so mysterious!" Li Ziqi asked curiously.
"I don't know. I've asked your father, but he refused to tell me. He told me not to care about women. You know your father's temper.”
"I always felt that they were planning something. I tried to probe the second prince a few times, but he always changed the topic.”Li Ziqi felt that there was something fishy going on.
"Speaking of which, I'm also feeling uneasy today.”Eldest Concubine rubbed her temples uncomfortably.
"What's wrong? Mother?" Li Ziqi was concerned.
"I didn't sleep well. I don't know why I dreamed of that girl last night, but I couldn't sleep no matter how hard I tried.”
"Mother, don't think about that. It's all in the past.”Li Ziqi was worried.
"Yes! Let's go out! Someone should be coming soon.
Today, the Prime Minister's Mansion was extremely lively. Carriages stopped at the door one after another, and people alighted and rode away. The servant at the door shouted the names of the guests as he received the gifts." Official Fang has arrived." The prime minister brought his family out to greet him, and then welcomed another person.
Not far from the entrance of the Prime Minister's residence, there were also many civilians watching the show. They were all cowering in fear and discussing among themselves.
"It's better to be an official! Everyone is eating and drinking well inside."
"That's right. Why don't you take a look at who's the one making the decision behind the scenes today?”
"Who is it? Who was it! Was it that son-in-law? The Second Prince!"
"That's for sure, okay? How can a prime minister move his residence and treat people as he pleases? Look at the extravagance here, it's almost comparable to a banquet in the palace.”
"It's really a good marriage that brings the whole family to heaven!”
"Don't you have a daughter? When the time comes, just ask her to marry well. Unlike us who have sons, we can only rely on ourselves.”
"Look at what you're saying. Your son can still be a prostitute! Look at the Prime Minister's eldest son. Isn't he very liked by the Princess?”
"Bullsh * t. If that's the case, I might as well not give birth to him and live in someone else's house.”
"Alright, let's stop talking. Seeing that the princess is here, let's continue watching.”
When the coachman at the door saw the carriage stop, he immediately shouted at the top of his voice,"The Fifth Princess has arrived ~" Everyone around bowed, and Li Xian personally came out to welcome her.
"Fifth princess, it has been hard on you. Your arrival has brought light to this humble place.”Li Xian helped the princess out of the carriage, making her proud heart laugh.
"You're the only one who knows how to talk." The Prime Minister came out to welcome him.
"Fifth Princess ~" The prime minister was about to bow when he was stopped by the princess.
"Milord, there is no need to be so polite today. I am only here to congratulate you. Go ahead." The princess's thoughts were all on Li Xian.
"Alright then! Then Xian 'er, go and accompany the princess. Don't slack off.”The prime minister could see through the princess's thoughts.
"Yes, Father." The two of them left slowly.
A carriage with a Chu character jade token slowly passed by one carriage after another. The other carriages gave way and stopped in front of the gate. The coachman hurriedly shouted in a voice that was even louder than before,"His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived ~" The Prime Minister and his family members jogged to the door and tidied up their clothes. The coachman took down the stepping stool and the Crown Prince came out first. Everyone was shocked. How could His Highness the Crown Prince be so handsome? Chu Mo got down from the carriage and brushed his hair back. He did not enter the Prime Minister's residence but extended his hand towards the carriage. Could there be someone else in the carriage? When Li Zimeng came out, everyone gasped. Was this woman really a fairy? Li Zimeng got off the carriage with Chu Mo's help. She smiled and Chu Mo carried her towards everyone.
As she was the Crown Prince's woman, no one dared to look at her openly. When Chu Mozhou arrived at the entrance, everyone let out a deafening greeting,""Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince.”There was always a pair of eyes that were unconvinced. This was the Second Prince's. He would let you be smug for a while longer.
"Get up! Today, we are here for the Prime Minister. Everyone, relax and do your own thing.”After Chu Mo finished speaking, everyone stood up and dispersed.
"Prime Minister, please accept this small gift.”Xingfeng gave him a gift. The prime minister accepted it with both hands and thanked him. The Prime Minister welcomed Chu Mo as he walked in. When everyone saw Chu Mo, they all bowed. When they arrived at the banquet hall, Chu Mo naturally sat at the highest seat. Chu Mo pulled Li Zimeng along and sat down.
"Your Highness, please take a rest first.”The Prime Minister retreated consciously and glanced at the woman from the corner of his eye. His heart ached. Wasn't that the person he had been thinking about day and night? She looked at it boldly again. No, it wasn't. How could it be her? No!
"Mother, mother, did you see that?" Li Ziqi and First Aunt were still standing at the door. First Aunt was trembling.
"I saw it. It's her? Am I right? She was back! Am I right?" Eldest Aunt asked Li Ziqi in a trembling voice.
"I'm not sure. It's possible that they're just a little similar. Moreover, look at her standing with the Crown Prince. That girl…" Li Ziqi couldn't continue lying.
"It must be her. She looks too much like her mother. What should he do? What should he do? What do you think we should do?" Eldest Concubine stomped her feet anxiously.
"Mother, mother, you can't do this. You're the wife of the prime minister now, who would dare to touch you!”Li Ziqi's sonorous and forceful words made Eldest Concubine calm down. She tried her best to adjust her heartbeat and expression. Then, a few madams came over to chat, but they did not take away her uneasiness.
"Why are you shaking so badly? Are you cold?" Chu Mo had just held her hand and she was already shaking violently.
"It's nothing. It's just that I haven't seen an acquaintance for a long time and I'm excited.”At this moment, Li Zimeng did not seem to be herself. She tried her best to calm herself down.
"Brother Crown Prince, why are you here so early?”Chu Feng ran in and felt embarrassed seeing Li Zimeng dressed like this.
"You guys are early too. We just sat down.”Chu Mo said.
"This lunatic has been practicing early in the morning. It's so noisy that I can't sleep well, so I woke up a little early.”Chu Jingyi also said. Today, the sons of the royal family were all dressed up like demi-humans and demons. It was a beautiful scene.
"Greetings, princes." Li Zimeng bowed, causing the two of them to be unable to react.
"Stand up!" Everyone sat in their respective seats. A song and dance performance made everyone feel less bored.
