Chapter 774

on the banquet hall.

Today's banquet was more lively, with both men and women, and many of them were new to the last time.

Qianran, Jiang Ying, and Hua Lanzhi sat together, and the three chatted without paying much attention to other people's movements.On the contrary, many people came to say hello, and they all seemed very perfunctory.

It was the first time for Jiang Ying to come to this kind of occasion, and she was afraid of embarrassing Huo Shaocheng, but fortunately she was accompanied by Qianran, and she kept in mind not to talk, so far nothing went wrong.

Qian Ran looked around carefully, but did not see Qin Zixiang and Yuan Luoqi.

"What are you looking at?" Hua Lanzhi asked.

Qian Ran frowned and said, "Why didn't Zixiang come today?"

Jiang Ying just smiled and said, "Zixiang is almost four months pregnant now, it's better for her to come less often on such occasions."

"That's right." Qian Ran nodded, and didn't think much about it.

After a while, Empress Ming and the noble concubine arrived, besides them, there were also several concubines, it can be said that today's banquet is more lively than before.

Empress Ming didn't say much to everyone, so she asked the palace servants to bring some bonsai for everyone to enjoy.

The concubines praised Empress Ming for her insights on flowers and plants one by one, and Empress Ming was even more happy to hear that.

At the end, Concubine De arrived in front of Empress Ming and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, you promised my concubine earlier..."

Empress Ming raised her eyebrows and said, "What did I promise you?"

Concubine De: "..."

The corners of Empress Ming's lips curved slightly, and she said: "Concubine De, this girl Lan Zhi's marriage has already been decided, so don't think about it anymore."

Concubine De was stunned for a moment, looking at Empress Ming's slightly warning eyes, she could only suppress her anger.

She returned to her seat and shook her head at the Seventh Prince who was not far away.

The Seventh Prince pinched his fingers and glanced at Chu Yunjin, with even more hatred in his eyes.

Rao already knew the result, but he still felt very angry right now.

Chu Yunjin's face was calm, and she also pretended not to see the angry eyes of the Seventh Prince.It's all right if he doesn't make a move, but since he has made a move, there is absolutely no chance of anything going wrong.

After drinking for three rounds, Empress Ming said: "The Hundred Gardens are in full bloom, everyone can enjoy the flowers, you don't have to stick to these forms. The Shenshi dinner starts, everyone just don't be late."

Empress Ming asked everyone to enjoy the flowers, but also to allow these young people to have some communication in private. If some people are right, come to her to ask for a marriage proposal, and she will fulfill it as appropriate.

Empress Ming looked at Chu Yunjin again and said, "Yunjin, you should go shopping too."

This was hinting to Chu Yunjin that he should go and chat with Hua Lanzhi. She had already told Chu Yunjin just now that if there were no accidents, she would marry him and Hua Lanzhi today.Taking advantage of letting everyone go to the garden, she also invited the Ming family to come and sit down. For things like bestowing a marriage, she had to communicate with the prime minister's mansion to some extent.

Today's banquet is too long, from morning till night.It's brunch now, and it's not even noon yet.And the dinner will be at Shenshi, and it will be several hours before Shenshi.

After Empress Ming said this, she left the venue first, and the rest of the concubines also gradually left, while the others went to the Baihuayuan area in twos and threes.

Qian Ran, Jiang Ying, and Hua Lanzhi also left the scene together, but when Chu Yunjin wanted to chase after her, she was stopped by the Seventh Prince.

Chu Yunjin glanced at the direction Hua Lanzhi was leaving before her eyes fell on the Seventh Prince indifferently.
