Chapter 1379

Zhao Rong Princess raised her chin and purposely raised her voice for Chen Ning to hear.

Only this kind of child's play could not arouse Chen Ning's jealousy at all. She just revealed a faint smile and said to Mo Chuan, "It's getting late, we can start the banquet."

Mo Chuan nodded and clapped his hands. The eunuchs and maids immediately brought out the wine and food.

Empress Dowager Zhou wanted to show her favour to Zhao Rong Princess, so she wanted to make this birthday banquet as grand and lively as possible. She spent a lot of effort and prepared all the rare delicacies that were very delicious.

Everyone was filled with praise as they ate.

She had Su Jin prepare some songs and dances, but Su Jin had returned to the Peaceful Life Palace with Empress Dowager Zhou. Those beautifully dressed singers and dancers were waiting in the side hall, but no one had asked them to perform.

In the Peaceful Peace Palace, the ministers were all in high spirits, but only Zhao Rong Princess did not have a happy expression. She was sulking as she sat there.

There was an endless stream of people coming to toast Duke Ning and her. Each minister had carefully prepared a gift, but among all of them, Mo Chuan was not there.

She did not have the heart to deal with these bearded ministers at all. Her eyes did not leave Mo Chuan at all.

But Mo Chuan did not look at her at all.

He sat next to Chen Ning and on her table were the dishes he had ordered the royal kitchen to prepare for her. They were all her favourite flavours and he did not even care about the eyes of the people around him as he continued to serve her food.

As the two of them ate, they looked at each other and smiled. The tenderness and sweetness between their brows was clearly reflected in their eyes.

Zhao Rong Princess' eyes seemed like they were about to spit out flames. Even if a dragon's liver and phoenix's gallbladder were placed in front of her, she wouldn't be able to eat a single bite.

"Pa!"

She slammed the jade chopsticks in her hand onto the table and suddenly stood up.

"Zhao Rong, what are you doing? You can't be rude in this kind of situation, why aren't you sitting down! " Although Duke Ning was chatting with the ministers, he was still looking at his daughter from the corner of his eyes. Seeing her staring at Chen Ning with eyes filled with flames, he was afraid she would cause trouble, so he quickly stopped her.

"Father, your daughter just wants to toast the emperor and empress a cup of wine. You old people wouldn't even stop your daughter for this, right?"

Zhao Rong Princess opened her mouth and revealed a smile. The anger and hatred in her eyes were quickly concealed without a trace.

She picked up the wine jug and poured a cup of wine, holding it in her hand.

Duke Ning looked at her with a suspicious gaze, "You, Ning Qing, are you going to toast?"

"Rong King Qing, I, Ning Qing, Princess, Ning Ning, Ning Qing," said. Zhao Rong Qing, "Ning" and said, "Qing" Long, "King" of of "of Of", "King" "," Qing "," "," King "," "," "," Father "," "," "," "," "," "."

From the first time she saw Chen Ning, she noticed that the other side was wearing a dress that was as beautiful as a flowing cloud. This was something she had spent a lot of effort to get her hands on. She was planning on wearing it to shock everyone at the banquet, but in order to achieve her goal, she had to reluctantly give it up. She had a spy in Guan Osprey Palace to put it in Chen Ning's suitcase.
