A maid walked forward and explained with a smile, "Because there were so many guests here today, His Highness said that we would take a few more pots of wine over. Maybe the pots were buried so deeply, so His Highness was afraid that the servants would break them up when digging. So he asked them to dig slowly. Thus, he is somewhat late now."

Huan Yehe, Cao Zhu, and some others mediated, "It’s not time for dinner. Let’s drink some rose syrup and mint syrup and eat some snacks at first. It's okay for the wine to be brought over slowly."

Meng Lipiao and Meng Liti also said, "As the saying goes: Good dinner is worthy of waiting. So is the wine."

"I shouldn't have let him do that." Grand Princess Wuyang only had one son, Li Shengxu. Over the years, she had been worried about his poor health all the time. Naturally, she wouldn't have the heart to blame him for just being late. She just felt that it was a snub to the guests, so she pretended t

    Sheng Weiqiao expected that there would be a big fight after she returned to the banquet, but she bumped into Meng Lipiao and Princess Deping very shortly, who were looking around for her and Li Shengxu.Sheng Weiqiao and Li Shengxu noticed them first through the luxuriant shrubbery on a meandering path lined with flowers.Walking alongside Princess Deping, Meng Lipiao seemed to have dropped her mask in the absence of other guests, "I can't believe that a girl of your age is brazen enough to attend a banquet like this! Normally, she should be looking after their children at home now, unlike you! And you even began to think about marrying Shengxu, just because Her Highness was too soft-hearted to chase you out! Please, even an ordinary family won't consider marriage with you, let alone Her Highness, who must have somehow learned about how you set up my sixth brother before!""You're the last girl to whom she would ever marry off her son!"

They exchanged a few glances, and stepped to chase up!“I've got a feeling that my mother and I were both cheated!" Li Shengxu murmured as Sheng Weiqiao dragged him, "You were described as a girl tactless, broad-minded, ingenuous, and credulous who I would like to back up in that situation!""I supposed it would be a thousand years before you finally offered to back me up!" Sheng Weiqiao laughed coldly, "And how dare you claim that you were cheated? I am the more likely victim, to think how my... my grandfather praised you as a generous refined handsome man and a

    Since she tried to egg him on, Li Shengxu said sternly, "Am I such a mean person? That happened so many years ago! How could I still remember that as a dignified man!"But he hit Meng Lipiao's eyes with a punch before Sheng Weiqiao could react!"Shengxu... Shengxu, you hit me!" Meng Lipiao covered her eyes before she rolled her sleeves and she got frozen, "We have known each other since childhood. In the early days, my thirteenth sister and I used to come here to play with you. But now you... You hit me for this b*tch?"Sheng Weiqiao was also stunned, "How could you really hit her?"Anyway, Meng Lipiao was Li Shengxu's aunt, and she came to the Grand Princess Wuyang Family as a guest. Sheng Weiqiao thought that even if Li Shengxu hated her, he would at best stop her or say something hurtful to her.It seemed that he hated Meng Lipiao's bullying in the past so much that he had hit her really!"How ca

But she was not familiar with the Grand Princess Wuyang Family, and when Li Shengxu took her away from the banquet, they walked so fast when he was worried about being caught up with by Meng Lipiao and Princess Deping. Therefore, she didn't have the chance to pay attention to her surroundings at all. So at this time, she walked around without a destination and finally walked into a dead end. Looking at the wall in front of her, she had to stop.She sneered, "You must have been beaten by Meng Lipiao so many times since you was a child in light of your resentment against her just now... Will you vent all your anger just by beating her once? If you had made her injured, she would have put all the blame on me s

    When Twelfth Miss Meng and Thirteenth Miss Meng were speaking in low murmurs, Meng Guihan was having an intimate talk with his elder brother Meng Guiyu at the edge of the flowering shrubs, just a short distance away from the two sisters. "Sixth Brother, Princess Kangzhao left here a long time ago and has not come back yet. Maybe someone stopped her somewhere to pour out his or her heart. Just a moment ago, I asked a maid whether she had seen Princess Kangzhao, and she told me that she had seen Princess Kangzhao ask for directions at a short distance from here. As I estimated, she would arrive here after a while. You cannot miss such a good opportunity!"Hearing that, Meng Guiyu frowned. He was really curious about Sheng Weiqiao and intended to have more contact with her. But after all, he valued his siblings most at the moment. Thus, to him, that Meng Guihan put his heart and soul into pairing him off with Sheng Weiqiao was a big headache, "What about you? Today, almost

Meng Lipiao and Meng Liti exchanged a quizzical glance and they went up to ask him in a low voice."Eh?" Being caught off guard, Meng Guihan was startled before he turned back and found his two cousins. But being loath to let them in on his secret, he only frowned, "Nothing much... What are you doing here?""Seventh Brother, are you in a place to question us?" Meng Lipiao wasn't in a good mood despite having hatched a plan for revenge already, so she got impatient naturally when Meng Guihan, whose fourth branch was always scorned by the other three, responded to her in an offhand manner. So she said coldly, "You're al

    Meng Liti was vexed to see them downplay it and muttered within, "Why couldn't we pit Her Highness against Sheng Weiqiao? Why was she so lucky?!"Her legitimate mother would make a big scene if her son was in love with a girl like that!But being well aware that pitting the Grand Princess against Sheng Weiqiao was only the first step of their plan, Meng Liti stifled her temper. She sneered inside, "It was a close call, wasn't it?! But will you stay lucky all along?!"Meng Liti narrowed her eyes and was to reorganize her thoughts when Meng Lipiao's maid caught up from behind. She hesitated for a moment and whispered something in Meng Lipiao's ear.Being engrossed with the proceeding of her scheme, Meng Liti didn't show much care to the maid who had been sent to investigate Meng Guihan's dubious deeds.She snapped her gaze back when Meng Lipiao emanated rapture and blurted out, "Your Highness, let's just say that Xu Baom
