Capital City, Rong Cheng Residence.
Under the night sky, the carved beams and painted buildings were bustling with people and lights. A dance and banquet was being performed extravagantly because of Rong Chengqian's birthday celebration.
"We congratulate the chief assistant on being blessed like the East Sea, the sun and moon are bright, the spring and autumn are not old, and you are a hundred or a thousand years old!”
The birthday banquet of high officials never lacked people who fawned over them. As soon as these words were said, it immediately attracted voices of agreement, one after another.
Rong Chengqian sat firmly in the main seat, his face glowing red. The corners of his mouth curved slightly when he heard this, but he was not surprised. In fact, he had already retired from his position more than ten years ago. Because his eldest son, Rong Chengyao, had succeeded him, the officials did not change their minds.
The scene was bustling with excitement. There was a report that the Eldest Princess had come to congratulate him on his birthday.
Seeing a lady in luxurious clothes enter gracefully, everyone except Rong Chengqian stood up to welcome her.
The Eldest Princess did not even look at him and only lowered her head slightly to Rong Chengqian."Congratulations on your longevity, old man."
Rong Chengqian smiled and extended his hand.""Princess, please don't be polite."
There was no small talk. The Eldest Princess only stayed for a moment before turning around and leaving. Rong Chengqian's second son, the Prince Consort, Rong Chenghong, also left. Everyone sent each other off again, but when they turned around, they had already started discussing in private. The officials of the court had come so well for this birthday banquet. Not only had the princes sent people to congratulate them, but even the eldest princess of the previous dynasty, who had never appeared at home banquets, had condescended to attend. The matter of the empress was really a foregone conclusion.
The scene quickly became more and more intense. As they toasted, everyone understood that after six years of fighting, relying on the eldest son of the late Imperial Concubine Rong Chengmin, the Empress Dowager Xue's family had finally lost. Once Rong Chengxiao entered the palace, the position of Crown Prince would not be far away, and the Rong family's prosperous situation would quietly open up.
At this moment, no one noticed that an attendant was whispering something in Rong Chengyao's ear in a panic, causing the expression of the cabinet chief assistant, who had held great power for many years, to change.
Unlike the brightly lit front yard, in the depths of the mansion, the lights were lowered. A beautiful and charming woman who had seen her wealth and fortune was cut off by someone with a sword. She lay silently in a sticky scarlet red, beautiful and ugly.
