By the time the empress arrived with her men, the rest of the family members were already present.
"Before the dishes were served, someone had already asked about the fragrance of the dishes, such as the Princess Fifteen who always liked to eat them." "Sixth sister, it's the fragrance of the dishes." As she said that, she pushed Duan Yingluo's hand who was leaning on the table. Not only did that childish tone not get scolded by Yuwen Di, it had even made the latter laugh loudly.
"Yuying is so anxious, the ones who don't know should think that I'm the one who hasn't fed her enough." The Queen heard the conversation as soon as she walked in. She was amused and amused by the conversation for a while.
Duan Yunfei picked up a few mouthfuls of the dishes in front of him, and there was no need to explain the taste of the imperial kitchen's products. Although Duan Yunfei liked the delicacies outside the palace more, she couldn't deny that the imperial kitchen's dishes were indeed extremely delicious.
From then on, there were always dishes being served, which were only served after the Eunuch Ming had gone through a trial.
After eating for a while, the empress suddenly spoke up, "Your majesty, after Growing Age Ceremony passes tomorrow, Thirteenth Princess can be considered to be 15 years old. Back then, the Eldest Princess and Fourth Princess were all engaged to each other at this time, and even Little Six and Eleven had already chosen a partner.
Yuwen Di swallowed the food in his mouth, and his gaze landed on Duan Yunfei.
All these years, although the imperial harem was devoid of any good intentions, the princes had still beaten them up, and the matter of setting up the crown prince was about to be brought to light. The Eighth Prince and Queen's Fifth Prince were the hottest people to seize the throne, so the relationship between the two of them was not very harmonious.
"Right, right, right. Queen, there's no need to be too anxious about Yun Fei's marriage. It still depends on Yun Fei's decision." After Yuwen Di heard what the Imperial Consort Yun had to say, he agreed with him.
Duan Yunfei, who was at the side, naturally heard all of their words, and could not help but sneer in her heart.
Although she was not a man, she still gave the empress quite a bit of pressure after being pampered for so many years. The Mu Rong family was weak and had placed all their hopes on the matter of the Fifth Prince.
"Imperial Father, mother's words make some sense. "However, I also believe that even though the marriage was ordered by my parents, if possible, I would also like to meet someone I like, just like Sister Four." Duan Yunfei said from the side.
When the Fourth Princess was mentioned, Yuwen Di's expression softened by quite a bit.
Amongst all the royal daughters, Duan Yunfei was the most favored, but in terms of weight, the Fourth Princess was on par with her in Yuwen Di's heart. Although Imperial Consort Duanshuo had stayed by Yuwen Di's side for a long time, and had passed away, still remembered them, the Fourth Princess' matriarch was a true beauty. Furthermore, in order to save Yuwen Di, she had died.
"Don't be like your Fourth Sister, pulling someone out of nowhere and refusing to marry him. If that person really has a clean background, I won't marry your Fourth Sister to him no matter what!"
Duan Yunfei chuckled, "Father, Fourth Sister saw it correctly, the two of them are connected to each other. It's not a good fate to be told by you. "
"What are you still talking about? At that time, how old were you? You already knew to help your Fourth Sister hide it from us and let them meet." Yuwen Di glared at Duan Yunfei angrily as she knocked on the bowl.
Duan Yunfei immediately pretended to be afraid, and said: "Royal father, it's all Fourth Sister who threatened me. Otherwise, how would I dare?"
Yuwen Di smirked, obviously amused by Duan Yunfei's actions.
Imperial Consort Yun at the side quietly glanced at the Queen, and saw the pair of eyes of the latter brimming with anger, her heart also felt a little happier.
She was not like the Empress, where Duan Yunfei was destined to never become Crown Prince because of her status as a woman. Furthermore, Imperial Consort Duanshuo was also a benefactor who helped Imperial Consort Yun back then. Imperial Consort Yun was not a person who would repay kindness with enmity, so it was natural that she would not go and find trouble with Duan Yunfei.
The anger in the empress's eyes disappeared very quickly, but her hands tightened around the wooden stick, and her expression was still that of a gentle smile.
"Your majesty is right. If Thirteenth Princess has someone she likes, she might as well say it. But if it's a family match, your majesty will naturally arrange it for the princess."
"That's only natural, royal father, if this son has a candidate he likes, I will definitely tell you." Duan Yunfei did not look at the Queen, but continued to accept her words, smiling brightly at Yuwen Di.
"Good!" Good! "Alright!" Clearly, these words made Yuwen Di very happy, and he said "good" three times over.
