Chapter 1033 It’s Still Too Late to Pretend to Be Cute 60

Moreover, she has been active in the aristocratic circles of the imperial city.

Because there is a queen standing behind her, and the Liu family is a family that has existed since the beginning of the Beiji Dynasty, so the strength behind her cannot be underestimated.

Therefore, for the Liu family, almost all aristocratic families have the mentality that even if they cannot make friends, they must not make enemies.

After all, the current power of the Liu family can be said to dominate half of the ruling and opposition parties, and even if the queen is not liked by the emperor, she is still the empress of the mother-in-law, and no concubine in the harem can surpass her.

Therefore, Liu Wanqing has always been a person in the social circle who is flattered by three layers of people inside and outside.

Originally, Concubine Lan was hosting this time. She was obviously the enemy of the person behind her, and Liu Wanqing didn't want to come.

But soon she heard that Chu Ci also came to attend the banquet.

And now Chu Ci is eighteen years old and still not engaged, so when such a banquet is held, Chu Ci, who rarely appears in front of everyone, is specially invited.

The meaning is quite clear.

The empresses in the harem were anxious and began to look for a husband for Chu Ci.

Liu Wanqing naturally knew in his heart that, coupled with the changes that occurred in the palace, the second prince was ultimately fostered by the emperor under the name of Concubine Lan because he had no maternal line.

Obviously he wanted to protect the second prince and his beloved concubine.

Naturally, they couldn't just sit back and wait for death.

Thinking of this, Liu Wanqing's eyes lowered slightly, her beautiful face and the glimmer of light in her eyes were covered by her.

Speaking of which, she had never seen Chu Ci again since the young master of the Cheng family was beaten by Chu Ci.

Firstly, Chu Ci rarely appears in their circle and does not interact with them at all. Secondly, Chu Ci is obviously from Concubine Lan's faction. It is not too late for the two of them to look at each other and get tired of each other, and they will not deliberately look at each other's presence. Place to go.

In this way, it is really an opportunity to meet.

It was almost time, and the sunshine outside was a bit strong, but the courtyard was surrounded by streams. Although the humidity was heavier, it was still very cool.

Coupled with the many shelters in the courtyard, this feeling is quite comfortable.

The boys and girls of the appropriate age sat separately, each sitting on one side. The girl's side was naturally led by Liu Wanqing.

It's just that it's already this time, and Chu Ci hasn't arrived yet.

Liu Wanqing sat under the shade of a tree, taking a slow sip of the sweet and sour soup presented by the housekeeper of the other courtyard to relieve the heat.

"It's already this time, and the princess is nowhere to be seen. It's just that she doesn't interact with us normally. Princess Chu Ci can even bring down Sister Liu's face."

Liu Wanqing didn't speak, but the girl in pink shirt sitting next to him hummed something with scorn in her eyes.

The girls who could sit next to Liu Wanqing were all very well-off, not to mention Liu Wanqing sitting next to him. When the time was up, Chu Ci couldn't explain why he didn't come, so he couldn't help but make some sarcastic remarks.

When this person opened his mouth, the surrounding area became noisy.

Most of what you say and what I say revolves around Liu Wanqing in the middle.

Liu Wanqing was very used to this kind of flattery. She chuckled gracefully, with a gentle and generous look, "The princess has never interacted with us, and has never participated in such banquets. There are some things she doesn't understand." It’s very normal.”
