Chapter 894

Yao Xiaoshu stood in front of Empress Dowager Jiang, looking cute and sensible.

Her appearance fell into the eyes of Empress Dowager Jiang, so she was naturally very satisfied.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Jiang glanced at Hua Qian and Yue Xia first, and then said to Nangong Xun with a smile: "Your Majesty, Xiaoshu's family has saved the crown prince and even accepted the crown prince to live in their house for three years. The Ai family thinks this kindness is enough Make Xiaoshu the crown prince's side concubine."

Hehe, this old hag wants to send someone to the East Palace now, and she has found a good candidate.

Nangong Xun's face was slightly condensed, and he looked at Empress Dowager Jiang with a half-smile and said, "Empress Dowager, if this girl's family really saved the crown prince, you have to ask the crown prince."

Nangong Xun and Queen Li were very upset about Queen Mother Jiang seeking trouble at her grandson's full moon banquet, but they couldn't turn against her publicly.

So there is no doubt that this old hag is also the Queen Mother.

"Naturally." The Empress Dowager Jiang said, looking at the expressionless Yue Xia, "Prince, Xiaoshu's family saved you, but is it true?"

Yue Xia glanced lightly at Yao Xiaoshu who was standing beside Empress Dowager Jiang, and was playing with the catkins that looked like flowers and green onions with the hands under the table, and said calmly, "It's pretty much it."

Although this answer is far-fetched, Empress Dowager Jiang thinks it is better than Yue Xia's denial.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has admitted it. In this way, it is settled that Xiao Shu will be the Crown Prince's side concubine. Tomorrow, Ai's family will issue a decree."

Empress Dowager Jiang talked to herself and never gave Nangong Xun a chance to interject.

"Okay, then I would like to thank the Queen Mother." Yue Xia said casually.

When Nangong Xun and Empress Li heard that Yue Xia had agreed to the marriage offer from Empress Dowager Jiang, they both disagreed.

Looking at Hua Qian's expression again, although she was smiling, she had a gloomy feeling.

"Since the crown prince agrees to accept the side concubine, one person is too few, why not choose one more." Hua Qian looked at Yue Xia with a smile on her face and said.

Regarding this, Yue Xia was even helpless, and could not explain to Hua Qian in public, so she could only secretly pinch her catkin lightly.

But the angry Hua Qian not only failed to understand Yue Xia's hint, but shook his hand away instead.

The petty actions between the two naturally did not escape the eyes of Empress Dowager Jiang, and she immediately smiled and said: "Since the Crown Princess chooses one more Crown Prince's side concubine, the Ai family thinks it is very good, what does the Empress think?"

Empress Li, who was named, held Nian'er in her arms and was feeding her pastries, but she didn't take Empress Dowager Jiang's words to heart.

"If Yue'er is willing, my mother will naturally agree." Empress Li took a serious look at Yao Xiaoshu's appearance, and had to say that the girl was indeed beautiful.

However, the most indispensable thing in the capital is beautiful women, and Yao Xiaoshu is not too outstanding.

"If that's the case, then the Ai family will decide to choose a side concubine for the crown prince." This step was indeed correct.Queen Mother Jiang smiled triumphantly.

At this time, as long as the women attending the full moon banquet are not yet married, they all look at Yue Xia shyly and coquettishly.

All the courtiers and family members also looked at Empress Dowager Jiang or Yue Xia expectantly, hoping to win the favor of the two of them and choose their daughter.

However, all Yue Xia's attention was on Hua Qian's body, and she held her catkin again, and even put one hand around her waist, trapping her by her side.

Seeing this, Empress Dowager Jiang showed a hint of disdain, and said: "For the sake of fairness, it is better for the ladies of each government to show their best programs and vote for them later."

After Queen Mother Jiang finished speaking, everyone attending the full moon banquet erupted.

In this way, everyone has a chance.

It's just that the position of side concubine is really a bit small. It would be great if more concubines were selected.

With the prince's appearance and knowledge, even if he has no status, they are willing to serve him with him.

Hua Qian's eyes grew colder as she watched the full moon banquet that was celebrated for her children suddenly turn into a banquet for Yue Xia to choose a concubine.

"Yue Xia..." Hua Qian just opened her mouth, but Yue Xia pressed her lips with her fingertips, unable to say anything.

I saw Yue Xia whispering in his ear, "Watching a play."

Facing Shangyue Xia's doting and smiling eyes, Hua Qian calmed down, "Yes."

However, a small hand restlessly landed on Yue Xia's waist and pinched it fiercely.

"Hiss..." Yue Xia took a cold breath, and the phoenix eyes that flew up and down revealed a look of grievance.

"Hmph!" Hua Qian snorted softly when she saw it, then turned her gaze to look at Yao Xiaoshu.

Yao Xiaoshu, who had been secretly looking at Hua Qian, met her eyes unexpectedly, and smiled slightly, but she was also full of provocation.

Brother Xia and I have known each other since we were seven years old, and we have a good relationship. As long as you give me some time, Brother Xia's heart will definitely turn to me!
Yao Xiaoshu smiled triumphantly, looking at Hua Qian with a little more contempt.

Facing Yao Xiaoshu's provocative gaze, Hua Qian didn't say anything, just leaned on Yue Xia's arms, admiring the talent competition that had already started.

Yao Xiaoshu, who was ignored by Hua Qian, stirred her handkerchief angrily, glared at Hua Qian unwillingly, not wanting to be bumped into by Yue Xia.

The moment the four eyes met, Yao Xiaoshu immediately put on a lovely and pitiful expression, "Brother Xia..."

This coquettish, coquettish and weak posture attracted many men at the banquet to feel pity for her.

Yue Xia sneered at this, her eyes fell on Hua Qian with gentle eyes, not the slightest interest in the talent competition at the banquet.

However, seeing Hua Qian watching with gusto, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, "Xian'er, that person played such an ugly piece, why did you listen so carefully?"

Yue Xia didn't lower his voice, so when he said this, everyone present more or less listened.

Qian Jin, who was playing guzheng music in the center of the venue, felt ashamed because Yue Xia said that she played it badly.

Then a piece of music came down, almost full of mistakes, beyond recognition.

After eating the orange that Yue Xia handed to her lips, Hua Qian nodded approvingly: "Your Highness, you are too honest, this is not good."

"Wow... I'm dead..." The daughter in the middle of the venue covered her face and ran away crying.

In this way, it puts a lot of pressure on the daughters who will perform next, and they all look at each other in blank dismay, not daring to show off their talents easily.

Seeing this, Empress Dowager Jiang stepped forward to smooth things over, "The prince always likes to joke, so don't worry about it."

This is no ordinary joke. Those who have poor mental capacity may not dare to perform in front of others in the future.

"Yes, the crown prince is just joking." Hua Qian took Empress Dowager Jiang's words smoothly, "The next lady, hurry up and perform. The crown princess is satisfied with it. Maybe the position of side concubine is yours."

All the daughters couldn't make up their minds for a while, and looked at the elders around them, hoping they would give some advice.

Some wives who had good eyesight and didn't want their daughters to be embarrassed shook their heads at their own daughters.

Naturally, there are also those who want to climb high branches, no matter whether their own daughters are willing or not, they will order them to perform.
