Zhilan was reassured when she heard Su Yingxue say so.

However, when she accompanied Su Yingxue to the Treasure Splendor Hall where the palace banquet was held, she was suddenly shocked.

“Miss, this…”

The two of them stood at the entrance of the hall and immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

It was because the entire Treasure Splendor Hall was already filled with people. All the officials and their families had arrived. Even the emperor and empress were already sitting in the hall, but Su Yingxue had just arrived.

Su Yingxue suppressed a bad premonition in her heart. She walked to the Treasure Splendor Hall and knelt. “Emperor, Empress.”

Above her, the empress’s dignified voice sounded, “Su Yingxue, you’re impressive. You’re late for the state banquet of the four kingdoms and nine provinces. How impudent!”

A trace of doubt quickly flashed across Su Yingxue’s heart. The state banquet was supposed to start at 10:45 am. How could she be late?

“Empress, I have my eye-opener today. A legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s Manor dares to not give face to the emperor and the empress. She is indeed powerful.”

Han Yuwen sat in the envoy’s seat, next to Qin Muyan’s seat. She commented on Su Yingxue and was particularly rude.

“I don’t think so. The banquet was already held early. It’s expected that Miss Su will be late. Could it be that you didn’t inform Miss Su?”

Qin Muyan’s words reminded Su Yingxue.

Su Yingxue gave him a grateful glance, but she thought to herself, “The banquet has been brought forward?”

“Is the Scarlet Flame King favoring Su Yingxue? Could it be that me and the emperor still have to wait for her, a mere legitimate daughter of Marquis’s Manor? Or do all the envoys present also have to wait for Su Yingxue?” The empress snapped.

Qin Muyan wanted to speak again, but Wei Jue reminded him in a low voice, “Your Highness, we’re in the Great Cheng Dynasty and don’t know the situation in the imperial court. Let’s take a look first to avoid being a hindrance to Miss Su.”

Qin Muyan wanted to say something but hesitated. He thought that what Wei Jue said made sense. If he kept protecting her, the emperor and empress would not do anything to him, but they might do something to Su Yingxue.

Han Yuwen sneered. “If it wasn’t for the empress, 1 wouldn’t have known that a legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s Manor could have such a high status and such power in the Great Cheng Dynasty.”

“Princess misunderstood me. I wouldn’t dare.”

Su Yingxue nodded slightly.

She guessed that Han Yuwen was probably the one who brought forward the banquet!

The empress was supporting her.

“Su Yingxue, you were late for the state banquet and did not respect the imperial family. As a female envoy, you even neglected an envoy. Tell me how you should deal with this!” The empress was extremely strict about this matter.

Su Yingxue’s expression was indifferent, and she did not show any fear. “Although I am late, 1 did not know that the time of the state banquet has been brought forward. May I ask if Your Majesty has informed the all mansion about the matter of the time being brought forward?”

“Are you blaming me for not handling things properly? When Eldest Princess Yuwen visited me yesterday, she mentioned that entering the palace early could make the state banquet more fun. I immediately gave the order. Did your Marquis of Martial South’s Manor not receive the news? Or is it that you, Su Yingxue, were too arrogant to even consider me?” The empress questioned.

Su Yingxue scoffed. She did not care about the empress.

Her actions were truly amusing!

On the surface, she was urging everyone to come early, and have more fun at the state banquet, but she selectively omitted informing her Marquis of Martial South’s Manor.

“Miss, Marquis had already left early today, saying he was summoned to the palace,” Zhilan reminded..
