The beginning of the banquet

I was still talking to Mrs. Su here, and someone came from outside to report that Madam Founding Marquis was here.

Following closely behind was Mrs. Dong Xiang. They all heard their daughter mention that Lu Yaoyao didn’t know about his birthday. They thought that the Lu family might not understand a lot when they first arrived in the capital, so they came here to help.

Their arrival made Lu Yaoyao feel very grateful.

I also feel that I really haven’t made any wrong friends.

With the help of three noble ladies, Lu Yaoyao also learned many rules and etiquette that he didn't know before.

The most useful ones are the Zhao family and the Yuan family. They are both mothers and will live in the capital forever. They will have a lot to do with their children in the future. If they know more rules and etiquette, they will not be rude in front of others in the future.

The transformation of a portal is not achieved overnight, but requires the accumulation of knowledge slowly.

This foundation is not only about money and connections, but also about one’s own cultivation and etiquette.

The group of people stayed until lunch at noon before getting up and leaving. Lu Yaoyao personally saw the three of them off.

"Fortunately, we have the help of the three of them, otherwise we really don't know what to do with this matter."

"Yes, I never thought that there are so many rules and etiquette."

The Zhao family and the Yuan family were the most emotional.

"Sorry to trouble you two aunts."

"As a family, please don't say such kind words."

"You go back to your room to rest first, and leave the other things to me and your second aunt. I will definitely take care of it for you."

Lu Yaoyao saluted and thanked him again.

Time flies and it's the day of the birthday party.

The day before, Lu Yaoyao received a message from the palace.

Her clothes and jewelry were all ready, and as soon as she put them on, everyone in the Lu family's eyes lit up.

Lu Yaoyao has an excellent foundation, but she only likes to wear plain clothes on weekdays, which covers up many of her bright spots.

Now wearing a light pink dress, with exquisite makeup and head and face jewelry, her original ethereal temperament has become a little more noble. She looks like a fairy who has descended from heaven.

"My cousin is so beautiful."

Lu Yiyi spoke with a face filled with wonder.

"Indeed, my cousin is so beautiful."

Lu Mingxi also nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, good, good."

Mr. Lu also looked happy.

"Miss, the carriage is ready and the gifts are wrapped. It's time to set off."

Qiu Shuang walked in from the outside. As soon as she finished speaking, she was shocked by her current appearance.

"Then let's go."

With that said, she turned around and saluted Mr. Lu, Lu Kang and others.

Today is His Majesty's birthday. He has a day off and the banquet will last from morning to evening.

According to what Su and Mrs. Kaiguo Hou said.

There are quite a few programs today.

Emperor Hongwen liked to dance, write and write, so after lunch, there would be a large-scale literary gathering, including poems and songs.

There will also be rewards set up.

After the cultural gathering, there was a relatively free time to enjoy the flowers and have fun. The real banquet did not start until the evening, which was also the highlight.

The carriage quickly left the Lu family and headed straight to the palace.

At this time, carriages were already lined up in front of the palace. For the emperor's birthday, officials of the fifth rank and above in the capital were invited, and those below the fifth rank also had to attend.

But the venue is different.

As soon as Lu Yaoyao's carriage appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Each family's carriage has its own logo. As the princess, Lu Yaoyao naturally has a car that suits her status.

"Whose carriage is that? Why have you never seen it before?"

At this birthday banquet, many family members of officials from other places came.

"That is the carriage of the famous Princess Wanfu."

"Princess Wanfu?"

Those who came from out of town were in an uproar.

In this year, Princess Wanfu's fame can be said to be known all over the world.

"Mom, I've heard Princess Wanfu's name a lot before. This time I can finally meet her in person. I wonder if we can get along well with her?"

"I don't know about this mother-in-law, but she has a good reputation, so she should be easier to get along with."

"You must remember not to be rude. This princess is deeply favored by His Majesty."

While everyone was discussing, a group of palace people came out of the palace gate.

The leader was an imposing nun, and she was seen leading several palace maids directly to Lu Yaoyao's carriage.

"The person in the carriage is Princess Wanfu?"

The car curtain opened slightly, Qiu Shuang responded politely, and then asked, "I don't know what to call this nanny. What's the matter?"

"My surname is Lu, and I have been ordered to wait for Princess Wanfu again."

"Your Majesty, if Princess Wanfu arrives, she can enter the palace directly without waiting in line."

"Oh, I'd like to ask grandma to lead the way."

Lu Yaoyao's voice came out, and Grandma Lu bowed respectfully, then led Lu Yaoyao's carriage out directly from the crowd.

"Sure enough, he is so favored by the Holy Spirit. Your Majesty actually asked someone to come over and wait to greet you."

This scene made many people envious.

But there are also people who feel sad.

Especially those noble ladies from the capital, although they all know Lu Yaoyao better than those from other places, they are also more bitter.

They thought they were born as noble daughters, but what about Lu Yaoyao? She was just a middle-aged girl, how could she get such favor?

Among them, the one who was most unconvinced was Princess Haijing, who was born in Yunjun Prince's Palace.

Speaking of Prince Yun, he has become much more low-key since he was warned by His Majesty that time.

With the rise of Lu Yaoyao, Prince Yun became even more cautious and even warned the people in the mansion to keep a low profile.

Remember not to have any conflict with Lu Yaoyao.

This was originally a good advice, but Prince Yun has always been arrogant and arrogant, and so have his children in the past years.

Although Prince Yun did not have a princess, he did have many concubines, and Princess Haijing was born from one of his concubines.

Logically speaking, a concubine was not worthy of the title of princess, but at that time Princess Yun was deeply favored by the emperor, and Princess Haijing was also very well-behaved. Emperor Hongwen liked her very much, so he specially gave her the title of princess.

But with the rise of Lu Yaoyao, who has been making great progress to become the princess, and has also become the most favored princess in the capital, how can Princess Hai Jing bear it?

In the past, he was suppressed by his father, and Lu Yaoyao always kept a low profile and often stayed at his villa outside the city.

Even if she wants to cause trouble, she has no chance.

Today I met him unexpectedly. It seemed like this was a rivalry.

But Nanny Lu showed up, and she was also the princess. Why could Princess Wanfu have such an honor?

This made Princess Haijing feel even more angry.

"Don't be annoyed, Princess. She is just a country girl who occasionally gets favors."

"So what if I'm capable? There's no way I can compare to you, who is born with a golden branch and a beautiful leaf. I might cause some embarrassment with my finger today."

After listening to the words of the maid, Princess Haijing's inner anger became slightly relieved.

After the carriage entered the palace, it came to the parking area and Lu Yaoyao got off the carriage.

When Grandma Lu saw this, she was shocked. She had heard Princess Wanfu's name a lot this year.

This was the first time I saw her in person. I originally thought she was a peasant girl from the countryside, but I never thought she would be so extraordinary when I saw her today.
