After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone

  Chapter 262 New Year's Eve Palace Banquet (2)

  At this moment, the girl from the Lu family came over and sat down beside Shen Mingjiao and the two of them. Her sister-in-law, Mrs. Lu, looked at her worriedly and anxiously. But because of Shen Mingjiao's vicious reputation, she didn't dare to take her away rashly.

  Shen Mingjiao was secretly amused when she saw it. At this time, that Miss Lu came over, looked at Shen Mingjiao curiously, and then looked back a little disappointed.

  Cui Lingling was curious: "Why are you sitting next to us?"

  Lu Jingshu put the whip on the table, and said casually: "There is no way, because the front seat is only in your row. I am the jewel in the palm of the general's mansion, how can I sit in the back!"

  Cui Lingling was speechless, it was because no one dared to sit down with Shen Mingjiao around!

  Lu Jingshu looked carefully at Cui Lingling, slapped her forehead and said:

   "I know you, you are the real daughter of Mrs. Tong's family who grew up in the countryside, and later married Tong Yuyao to Duke Lu's mansion for joy!"

   The corners of Cui Lingling's mouth twitched. There is actually a girl who speaks more directly than her in this world!

  Lu Jingshu said again: "I heard that your behavior is rough, and you often beat the little prince of the Duke of Lu's mansion so that he can't get out of bed. It's true!"

  Cui Lingling: "...really, so?"

  Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Lu Jingshu's eyes lit up immediately, and she twirled the whip.

   "Great, then you must be very good at fighting. After the palace banquet is over, let's compete."

  After speaking, Cui Lingling made a unilateral decision without waiting for Cui Lingling to refuse.

  Cui Lingling was speechless, and it seemed that the rumors were not all wrong. The rumored great general, Yao Nv, was so domineering and coquettish, she whipped people at every turn.

  Looking at it now, domineering and vicious can't be regarded as domineering and vicious, but it is indeed a bit savage. It was only a sharp "The emperor is here..." Everyone stood up and saluted.

  Jing and Di waved their hands, telling everyone to be more casual tonight, without formality.

  Shen Mingjiao straightened up, glanced upwards, the emperor and empress came with him, followed by the pale prince.

  Many officials secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the prince.

  For the prince, they are quite satisfied, except that they are a little confused about the relationship. However, in the eyes of some people, this is not a big deal, anyway, the culprit, the daughter of the Su family, is already dead.

  As long as the crown prince can come out, then this matter will be over, and most importantly, their daughter (granddaughter) will also be able to compete for the position of crown princess.

  Shen Mingjiao just glanced at the crown prince lightly, then looked away, and looked at Feng Shuo who was being held by the queen for a moment.

  Since Feng Shuo went to the palace to study, for the convenience of going back and forth, he only went back to the Su Palace once every ten days. It's not that the little guy doesn't want to come back.

   Hearing from Qin Yan that Shuo'er was very talented in reading, Jing and Di became interested in talent and gave him a lot of homework, as if they wanted to see where his limit was.

  Shen Mingjiao naturally understood what Jing and Di's actions represented? Although she was gratified, she also felt distressed. No matter what, in the final analysis, Shuo'er was just a child less than six years old!

  But this is his own choice.

  Feng Shuo raised his eyes and looked in her direction. After a short pause, he nodded at her, and followed her closely with his eyes.

  Everyone in the hall also saw Feng Shuo. Ever since Feng Shuo entered and left the Chongwen Museum, the news that King Su had an illegitimate child was known to almost everyone.

  Many people couldn't believe it, especially those women who once admired King Su were heartbroken.

  It turns out that His Royal Highness King Su, who is wise, martial and clean, is all fake! There is a feeling of disillusionment in the moment.

  Most people feel normal after being surprised. After all, King Su’s identity is there, so finding a woman outside is not a big deal at all.

   As for saying that Feng Shuo's illegitimate son can study in Chongwen Hall, this is also easy to explain.

   Now that His Royal Highness King Su has gone to the border, if this child is left in the Palace of King Su, how can this child survive with the vicious reputation of Princess Su?

  So many people speculated that His Royal Highness King Su sent the child to the palace because of this.

  Although Jing and Di loved the child very much, everyone in the court did not think about other aspects. After all, Feng Shuo is just an illegitimate child, and because of his pair of blue eyes that are almost exactly the same as His Highness King Su's, it is doomed that he will not have any relationship with the crown prince!

  Women's side, seeing the queen pull Feng Shuo to sit down together, many wives and ladies subconsciously looked at Shen Mingjiao quietly, some sympathized and some gloated.

  Shen Mingjiao pretended not to see it. Soon, the trial of the palace banquet began, the silk and bamboo orchestra played, and exquisite dishes were served one after another.

  In the men's area separated by the screen, Jing and Di raised their glasses first and said some polite words such as everyone has worked hard this year, and will continue to work hard next year, and then let everyone in the hall start eating.

  Although the food prepared at palace banquets is exquisite in workmanship, due to the large number of people or the reason of the journey, in short, it is basically cold when eaten. Cui Lingling casually took two mouthfuls and then put it down, while Shen Mingjiao didn't eat a single mouthful.

  Finally, seeing that everyone was almost finished eating, and the dance on the field was over, the queen smiled and said:

   "Your Majesty, today is New Year's Eve, so it should be lively and festive. I heard that there are local tribes where every year, girls from various families will spontaneously gather together to perform. Why don't we join in the fun today."

  Everyone lifted their spirits after hearing the words, the highlight of tonight is finally coming! Immediately there are ministers and women's family members.

  Jing and Di smiled, and were about to say yes. The prince who had been silent since he came in suddenly raised his head.

"Father, it sounds interesting to let the girls perform, but we are Han people. Compared with singing and dancing around the bonfire, we Han people prefer to gather together as a family to watch the new year. It's not early in the day, so the father still let everyone Go back early, my lord!"

  However, after saying this, Jing and Di haven't said anything yet. The next group of ministers with ulterior motives couldn't sit still. They all said that they wanted to be with Jing and Di more than going home. Dedicated to the court and the country, and died...

  After some impassioned speeches, Jing and Emperor seemed extremely moved, and agreed with a smile without giving the prince a chance to speak.
