C8 Part3

....

The young women were originally whispering in groups of two and three, but at this time they got up and turned their heads to look around.

Concubine Xiao also looked forward, her heart throbbing.

The first person entering the garden was the Crown Prince wearing a black embroidered python robe, and the one behind was the Prince Regent in a black and golden python robe.

While the Crown Prince was petite and slender, with a slightly rickety and weak shoulders; the Prince Regent, on the other hand, was tall, straight and sturdy.

The Crown Prince had a handsome face, but with a hippy smile.

He winked at the ladies around in a teasing way, frivolous and sloppy.

The Prince Regent was handsome and unrequited, without squinting, calm and determined, a bit more powerful and iron-blooded than the Crown Prince.

He was unforgettable at first sight.

Overall the two Princes were like opposites.

The young ladies who had longed for the Crown Prince were disappointed and looked at the regent resolutely, hoping to draw his attention.

The Crown Prince is not only weak and wretched, frivolous and unrestrained, but also cowardly, a veritable straw bag.

The Prince Regent , at the age of ten, followed his step-brother and the previous Emperor to serve in the army.

At the age of fourteen he became famous in one battle.

At the age of eighteen, he commanded an army of 200,000 and defeated an army of 400,000 enemies.

Five years ago, he was recalled to the court, and His Majesty could personally appoint him as the Prince Regent and he took charge of the court.

He is wise and smart, diligent in government affairs, and knows everything.

Even if he were to replace His Majesty as the new Emperor, no one would oppose to it.

All in all, the Crown Prince couldn't even match a finger of the Regent.

In this way, at the beginning of his debut, the Prince Regent has harvested all fans.

Seeing the shamelessly obsessed faces of those young ladies, Concubine Xiao was itchy.

Murong Ci sat down at the banquet table on the left and said with a smile,

"Everyone, I exempt you from the formalities".

Murong Yu seemed to have caught the signals, and said loudly:

"Dear Imperial Consort and respected guests, although His Majesty's dragon's body is not well now, today's banquet is hosted by the Crown Prince and this King.

We don't need formalities, so you don't have to be restrained.

You can eat and drink as much as you like."

After that, the palace banquet officially began.

Concubine Xiao raised her glass to respect him, and he nodded coldly, drinking half a cup as entertainment.

She was very disappointed.

'Why did the Prince look so cold at me?

Could it be that her makeup today is not good?

Am I already old in your eyes with those young ones around you? It must be so.

Those shameless hoofs...blatantly seducing the Prince.'

"The Crown Prince is not young anymore.

It is reasonable to choose a few concubines to serve in the East Palace.

This is also His Majesty's wish."

Murong Yu's deep black eyes pierced the people,

"Noble Concubine, do you have any good ideas?"

"Prince Regent, I heard that all the ladies from famous families here today are talented. It is better to invite them to perform and let the Crown Prince take a good look."

Concubine Xiao chuckles charmingly.

"Good idea."

"Then start with the daughters of the Gong family, the Yang family, the Tang family, and the Fang family."

She said tenderly, expressing her own style to the maximum.

Murong Yu looked at the wives and daughters of the Four Great Families, staring sharply at them, making them restless.

Murong Ci suddenly clapped her palms and smiled excitedly,

"Would you like to choose a princess for this Prince?

Great! No need to perform art!

Now you all come over here to serve this Prince some drinks.

I will choose the one that serves me the best."

Murong Yu's handsome face turned dark suddenly, and his eyes were cold.

In fact, he knew that His Highness was deliberately sabotaging the banquet, and this was His Highness's countermeasure.

The ladies looked at each other, some bowed their heads, some sneered, and some cheeks blushed.

The Crown Prince was so licentious and shameless, ignoring the rules of the palace and acting a lot like His Majesty.

Murong Ci smiled frivolously,

"You all come here, it's fun together."

"Your Royal Highness!"

Murong Yu said coldly, before turning his head to look at the people around him,

"Stop this nonsense!"

"There is no nonsense in this Prince, don't you want me to choose?"

She said innocently,

"Well, I changed my mind.

I don't want them to serve me anymore."

Having said that, she suddenly stood up and walked to the center below, her eyes shining brightly,

"Every lady is beautiful and talented, and I don't know how to choose.

You all come up here and let me take a look..."

With the approval of the Regent, those ladies walked up unwillingly.

Murong Ci looked at them with a squint, his saliva almost came out.

Seeing this, they backed up one after another, and couldn't help looking at each other:

'Who wants to marry such a prince?'

Suddenly she took out a silk paw from her pocket and tied it to her eyes,

"This Prince thought of a wonderful way!

You ladies stay in this circle and dodge.

The ones that are caught by this Prince, will become my Princesses."

The ladies' faces turned white wanting to cry without tears.

'Oh my God, this is too childish!

Who wants to marry such a silly prince!? They'd rather die than marry him!'

Murong Yu raised his sword-like eyebrows, his eyes were cold,

'Your Highness, you really can act...'

Not only were they unwilling to marry him, but also their parents didn't want such a Prince to be their son-in-law...

'What a ruthless trick...!'
