Open Rivalry and Covert Strife

The banquet this time was set up on a piece of grass within the Mansion of Gaochang Marquis Garden. There were neat tables in the surroundings and all sorts of delicacies and rare fresh fruits were placed on the tables.

In the middle of the garden was a large carpet embroidered with peonies and auspicious clouds.

Gaochang Marquis and Eldest Princess Pingyang brought Feng Linyuan, Feng Jingye and the remaining princes to the north wing seats, and also sent people to lead Bai Zheng and her wife to the right of the main seat. Zheng Yan brought Bai Di and Su Muxiao to the left of the main seat, while the remaining three seats were filled with young masters who had come to propose.

"Zheng, why did you take so long to come out just now?" The Madame Lin asked as soon as they sat down.

Because they were not summoned by the Gaochang Marquis and the Gaochang Marquis, Bai Yinan and the Madame Lin were led to the side hall by the butler and waited until now.
