Chapter 122: Banquet

Chapter 122: Banquet
Before they knew it, it was already late, and Su Ye rushed over after finishing his important business.

At the banquet that night, Su Ye formally hosted a banquet to entertain the three princesses.

The night deepens and the moon hangs high in the sky.

On this quiet and mysterious night, a grand banquet was taking place in Su Ye’s luxurious mansion in Cangling City.

The lights in the mansion were bright, like stars, illuminating every corner.

The elaborately decorated banquet hall was filled with fragrance and the melodious sounds of stringed instruments added a touch of joy and romance to this special night.

Su Ye sat upright on the main seat, wearing a gorgeous brocade robe embroidered with exquisite patterns, showing unparalleled dignity and majesty.

His movements were unhurried and every detail revealed the demeanor of a local leader.

The three princesses who came at this time were all extremely beautiful and charming. Their arrival undoubtedly added more brilliance to the banquet.

Following a burst of pleasant music, the three princesses slowly walked into the banquet hall.

They were dressed in gorgeous clothes and wore dazzling jewels on their heads. They looked like three fairies descending to earth, which was stunning.

Su Ye stood up and greeted them with a smile.

Si Luoying and the other three princesses also returned the greeting gracefully.

She has a beautiful face, elegant temperament, and her manners reveal an innate aristocratic air.

As princesses of royal birth, no matter what their personalities are.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the etiquette.

Guo Jia stood by and watched everything silently, smiling without saying a word.

He knew that his mission had been accomplished - he had not only successfully delayed time but also eased the princesses' anxiety.

He also used his own way to make them feel more favorable and trustful towards their lord.

As the waiters served the dishes one after another, the banquet officially began.

Su Ye, Si Luoying and the other two raised their glasses and drank together, and the atmosphere gradually became warmer.

However, in this seemingly harmonious feast, the conversations and interactions between the four people were full of showmanship.

"It is an honor for Cangzhou that the three princesses have come from afar."

Su Ye smiled and spoke, his voice was low and magnetic, "I wonder if the three princesses are used to the customs and habits of Cangzhou in the north?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness." Si Luoying, the second sister, put aside her usual heroic style and responded elegantly, "The customs and people of Cangzhou have a unique charm. The three of us like it very much."

"That's good." Su Ye nodded politely, and turned to another princess, "I heard that the fourth princess is good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I wonder if I will have the honor to see the princess in the future?"

"Your Highness, you are too kind." Si Luoshi smiled modestly, "I only know a little bit about it, it's not worth mentioning."

"The fourth princess is too modest." Su Ye said with a smile, "Come, let's raise our glasses together and toast to tonight's feast."

The four of them raised their glasses and drank together, and the atmosphere seemed more harmonious.

However, in this conversation, it is not difficult to discover the subtle relationship between the four people.

Su Ye was trying hard to maintain the harmony and liveliness of the scene, while the three princesses were secretly observing Su Ye's every move while maintaining their reserve and elegance.

As the banquet progressed, the conversation between the four people became richer and more complex.

They talked about poetry, songs, calligraphy, painting, and the customs and political structure of various countries.

In this conversation, Su Ye and the three princesses all showed outstanding talent and wisdom. Their words were full of wit and hints, as if they were engaged in a silent contest.

The actions of the four were also full of drama.

Su Ye sometimes raised his glass to drink, and sometimes chatted and laughed with the princesses.

And from time to time he would glance in Guo Jia's direction.

To be honest, when it comes to dealing with girls.

Su Ye is really not as experienced as the prodigal son Guo Jia.

The three princesses sometimes listened to their master's story and sometimes exchanged glances with each other.

Each of their actions seemed to have a deep meaning, as if conveying some kind of message to each other. While Su Ye was trying to show his grace and talent, he was also secretly observing the reactions and attitudes of the three princesses.

While maintaining their elegance and reserve, the three princesses were also secretly evaluating the abilities and character of the Prince of Yun.

They are all making full preparations and considerations for future marriages.

It can be said that these four people took the time to eat a meal.

He has eight hundred schemes hidden in secret.

This feast is not just a simple banquet, but also an exchange and collision of hearts between Su Ye and the three princesses.

As the night deepened, the banquet came to an end amidst the battle of wits and courage among the four people.

The moonlight is like water, and the quiet night is shrouded in a faint silver glow.

At this time, in a remote pavilion in the back garden of Su Ye's mansion, an unknown conversation was taking place.

Su Ye leaned against the pillar of the pavilion, his face looking a little tired, with a complex light flashing in his eyes.

Although the flirtation with the three princesses just now was wonderful, it also made him feel a little exhausted.

It must be said that these three princesses are worthy of being the imperial daughters carefully cultivated by Emperor Qian.

The words are kept secret.

The most important thing is that these three little girls have no martial ethics.

The three of them cooperated with each other when they were fighting Su Ye secretly.

Su Ye was confused several times.

Therefore, at this time Su Ye needed someone to talk to to relieve the depression in his heart.

And at this moment, sitting opposite him was the drunkard strategist who relied on wine for company and strategists for a living - Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao.

Although this alcoholic seems a little unreliable on the surface, he has extraordinary wisdom and keen insight.

She can always give Su Ye advice and solve problems when he needs it.

"Feng Xiao, tell me, how was my performance just now?"

Su Ye spoke first, breaking the silence of the night.

Guo Jia took a sip of the wine in his hand and smacked his lips, as if he was savoring the aroma of the wine, or as if he was thinking about his lord's question.

"My Lord, your performance was flawless. The three princesses were all fascinated by you."

After a long while, he spoke slowly, with exaggerated body language.

I'm not very good at what I do for Su Ye.

"Can you be more serious!"

Looking at Guo Jia who was still drunk, Su Ye cursed with a smile.

"Hmph, bewildered?"

"It's just a show."

"I don't see how they are moved."

Then he sneered, slowly.

"My lord is indeed very observant and careful."

Guo Jia held the wine gourd and exclaimed, "However, the three princesses are indeed not ordinary people."

"They must have been secretly observing the Lord's every move at the banquet tonight."

"I know." Su Ye nodded, "So, I have to be more careful and not let them see my true intentions."

"Don't worry, my lord. I am here to help you."

Guo Jia patted his chest and assured that he had some experience in dealing with girls.
