Chapter 21

Even the girl sent by Mrs. Mu couldn't help but secretly admire her in her heart. Who said that the best-looking lady in the Sucheng Hou Mansion was the eldest lady? After all, the fourth lady was born to the eldest lady. I don't know why she thought the fourth lady was ordinary in the past.

In fact, the girls in the Sucheng Hou’s Mansion are all outstanding, and Mu Qingyi’s mother, Zhang, was a famous beauty in the capital back then. How could the daughter she gave birth to is not good? But Mu Qingyi was taciturn in the past and was unwilling to dress up. Most of the time, she hid in her own small yard. Even if she came out, she often lowered her head and didn’t look at people at all, so naturally she was ignored.

After dressing up, Mu Qingyi took Zhu'er and walked out of the mansion with the girl sent by Mrs. Mu. At the door of the house, Mrs. Mu had already sat in the carriage first. However, Mu Yunrong and Mu Yufei and Mu Shuilian had just come out and stood in front of the carriage without going in.

Seeing Qingyi come out, Mu Yunrong was stunned at first, and then sneered: "No wonder he came so late, we have to wait. It turned out that he was hiding in the room to dress up. What's the use of dressing up like? Not..."

Mu Qingyi smiled slightly and said, "It turns out that my third sister also thinks I look good, so thank you for your praise. I originally prepared everything, but my grandmother sent someone to send clothes and jewelry. Qingyi couldn't help but let her change it again, so she delayed some time. Let the third sister wait for a long time." Just looking at Mu Yunrong's exquisite makeup, you know that she must have spent a lot of time preparing. On the contrary, Mu Qingyi was elegant and casual, which made everyone feel that Mu Yunrong's squeezing was a bit troublesome. Besides, she had arrived just now, so she couldn't say who was waiting for whom.

Mu Shuilian, beside him, whispered: "Third sister, fourth sister, grandmother has already got on the bus, let's get on the bus first. It would be bad if I'm late." Mu Yufei and Mu Shuilian are the daughters of Mu Changming's younger brother Mu Changqing. Originally, the rankings of wealthy families were calculated together. Mu Yufei and Mu Shuilian should be ranked before Mu Qingyi after Mu Yunrong. But Sucheng Hou Mansion didn't know what happened, but the two families were arranged separately. Mu Yufei and she called Mu Yunrong and Mu Qingyi's third sister and fourth sister. However, everyone in Sucheng Hou Mansion usually called her name directly, and only Mu Qingyi occasionally called her cousin.

Mu Yunrong frowned and pointed at the second carriage behind Mrs. Mu with some displeasure: "You guys go to the back."

Mu Qingyi was too lazy to pay attention to her, so she walked directly to the second carriage and said lightly: "Come here and sit with me, Shui Lian sits in the back." There were only three carriages in total, and Mrs. Mu was the front. As the legitimate daughter, Mu Qingyi naturally could not condescend to surrender to the nobles and squeeze in with the two concubines.

Hearing this, Mu Yunrong was so angry that she wanted to step forward and pull Mu Qingyi. Mu Qingyi turned around and patted her hand and said, "Whether the third sister sits behind or squeezes with her grandmother in front. Or tell her father that the concubines in our Sucheng Hou Mansion will be equipped with a carriage."

After saying that, he ignored Mu Yunrong's shocked and ferocious expression and stepped on the embroidered stool and got on the carriage. Mu Yufei next to him looked at Mu Yunrong who was angry, and hurriedly followed him into the car.

The banquet held by Princess Gong was not in Princes Gong's mansion, but in another place in Princes Gong's mansion in the capital. The reason on the surface was that the scenery in the villa was more beautiful and served the banquet more, but Mu Qingyi understood that it was just because Murong Yu was too cautious. On the day of the banquet, there must be a mixture of people from all walks of life, including Murong Yu's friends but also his enemies. Murong Yu has always been a very cautious person. Therefore, Princes Gong's mansion has also been very good at holding any gatherings over the years. In this way, not only guarding against outsiders, but also giving Emperor Hua a good impression that Murong Yu did not like to make friends with ministers.

It was not too early or too late to arrive at the gate of the villa. Although the Sucheng Marquis' Mansion was not the most powerful family in the capital, it was also a marquis after all. Moreover, Mu Changming was still a heavy army, so naturally many people came forward to show their respect. However, these people were all for Mu Yunrong, which made the sisters Mu Qingyi and Mu Yufei who got off the car together look embarrassed.

Mu Qingyi naturally didn't care about this, and although the Mu Yufei sisters were a little unhappy, they were obviously used to it. In the past, they always served as the foiler when they followed Mu Yunrong. But so what? If they didn't follow Mu Yunrong, they wouldn't even be qualified to go out to attend these banquets.

When she approached the villa, Mrs. Mu took four people to pay homage to Princess Gong first. Princess Gong was wearing a princess formal outfit and sat upright on the front seat of the hall, which was more dignified and graceful than usual. Seeing Mrs. Mu saluted, she quickly smiled and said with a smile: "It's all a family, so the old lady doesn't have to be so polite. Please sit down."

Seeing the princess treating her so politely, Mrs. Mu felt very proud, and her wrinkled face was filled with smiles, "You can't let the courtesy be abolished. Thank you for your kindness." Speaking of which, Princess Gong is not polite to say that she is a family. Princess Gong's biological mother, Princess Pingnan County, is Mu Changming's cousin, and Princess Gong's grandmother is Mrs. Mu's sister.

"Yun Rong is here too. Come and show me. I haven't seen you for a long time, why have you lost weight?" Princess Gong looked at Mu Yunrong standing beside Mrs. Mu with a smile and waved. Mu Yunrong glanced at Mu Qingyi with some smug glance, walked forward and said, "Cousin, Yunrong misses you very much."

Princess Gong smiled and said, "Why don't I come to the royal palace to see me?"

"Where can I get out?" Mu Yunrong complained in a low voice.

How could Princess Gong not know about Mu Yunrong being punished by Mu Changming and being confined to her feet? She raised her head and looked at Mu Qingyi indifferently and said, "Miss Four is here too. Miss Four hasn't been walking around the capital for many years. She's been born at home, right?" She is also cousin, one named Yunrong and the other named Miss Four. People present can understand the closeness and distantness of the people present. Princess Gong obviously doesn't like Mu Qingyi, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's mansion.

Mu Qingyi smiled indifferently and said, "I have met the princess."

After looking around at the people present, Mu Qingyi basically knew each other. In the capital, especially the top group of people, there were actually such people back and forth.

"Is this the Fourth Miss?" A noble lady sitting at the head of Princess Gong, looked at Mu Qingyi in surprise and said with a smile: "It's really a girl who changes a lot. The girl from the Mu family is so beautiful. The Fourth Miss looks like this and she can really be called the No. 1 beauty in the capital."

Mu Qingyi lowered her eyes and smiled and said, "Princess Fu is too much. Qingyi's Puli Liu is not worthy of the title of No. 1 Beauty." This noble lady is the princess of King Fu, the eldest son of Emperor Hua. Murong Ke is the eldest son of Emperor Hua. It's a pity that his biological mother is humble. Otherwise, if the prince would not be appointed as the eldest son after he was deposed, it would be his turn to be the prince.

"Huh? Miss Four still remembers this concubine?" Princess Fu said in surprise. Mu Qingyi has basically been closed to the door in recent years. In fact, Princess Fu has no impression of Mu Qingyi. If Mu Qingyi had seen her, it should have been when she was a child. Unexpectedly, Mu Qingyi called out her identity in one mouthful. Mu Qingyi smiled and said, "Princess Fengyi, Qingyi has seen it several times when she was young, how dare you look for it?"
