"Why?"
"What else? We're going to attend Princess Qianxun's birthday banquet. It's a rare opportunity," said Ma Rongfa.
Xi Qianye frowned. He was not interested in the princess's birthday banquet.
"Stop daydreaming. Hurry up and get changed. I've already prepared your formal attire." Ma Rongfa threw a bag on the bed and urged Xi Qianye to get changed.
"I don't want to go," said Xi Qianye indifferently.
"What? You don't want to go!"
Ma Rongfa's voice rose an octave.
"Didn't you say you like Princess Qianxun a lot? I finally got you an invitation to her birthday banquet. How dare you say you don't want to go!" Ma Rongfa wanted to strangle Xi Qianye.
Not everyone was qualified to attend Princess Qianxun's birthday banquet. Ma Rongfa had to pull many strings in order to get Xi Qianye an invitation.
"Are you afraid that falling asleep on the way will affect your image in the eyes of the goddess?
Don't worry!
Princess Qianxun won't pay attention to you no matter what you do. You don't have to worry about that. "
Ma Rongfa discouraged Xi Qianye.
He was only bringing Xi Qianye to meet Princess Qianxun. The two of them would not have anything to do with each other.
"Alright."
Xi Qianye nodded. He could not reject Ma Rongfa's good intentions.
As for Princess Qianxun, he did have some impression of her.
She was the proud daughter of the heavens of the Lan Ling Honored Nation. She was the princess of the Lan Ling Honored Nation, and her brilliance was boundless. Furthermore, her talent was outstanding, and she was admitted into the inner court of the academy. She was publicly recognized as the sixth of the top ten beauties in the academy.
Before Xi Qianye regained his memories, he was only an ignorant youth. Naturally, he would have some hazy feelings of admiration for those outstanding members of the opposite sex.
Xi Qianye had met Princess Qianxun when he was young. He had never forgotten her.
Xi Qianye shook his head in amusement. Who hasn't been young once?
The War Spear Institute City was one of the top cities in the Lan Ling Kingdom's 12 counties in the Southern Region. It was even more developed than an ordinary county's capital.
Every inch of land in the city was worth an inch of gold. Those who could purchase property in the War Spear Academy were either rich or respectable.
Princess Qianxun, on the other hand, had a mansion in the Battle Spear Academy.
At this moment, there was an endless stream of people and carriages in front of the princess's residence.
Those who came were all wealthy people. They carried gifts in their hands and entered in a single file. The sound of congratulations was endless.
"As expected of Princess Chihaya. Even a birthday banquet is so grand," Ma Rongfa said enviously.
At this moment, Ma Rongfa had already led Xi Qianye into the Commandery Princess' residence.
There were seven entrances and seven exits in the Princess's Mansion. It was equipped with a garden, a rock garden, a pond, a pavilion, and a flying pavilion … Everything was luxurious.
From the main entrance to the main hall, it was a distance of three hundred meters.
Along the way, many people saw Ma Rongfa and came over to greet him.
As the direct descendant of the Ma family, Ma Rongfa's status was not much lower than Princess Chihaya's.
Wherever he went, there would be compliments.
As for Xi Qianye, he was like a foil to Ma Rongfa. He did not have any presence at all.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the banquet hall.
The so-called banquet hall was not indoors. Instead, it was in a garden in the Commandery Princess' residence. The place was big enough, and there were more than a hundred tables.
"I'm going to meet the Princess. Don't go anywhere. Eat and drink whatever you want on the tables, but don't go to the inner circle."
Ma Rongfa instructed softly.
He was going to meet the Princess. Naturally, he could not bring Xi Qianye with him.
With Xi Qianye's status, he was not qualified to meet the Princess. If he forcefully went to meet the Princess, he would only embarrass himself.
As for the inner circle, only those with a high status could enter.
The others and their family members could only stay in the outer circle.
Xi Qianye nodded. He was not in the mood to join in the fun.
After giving a few more instructions, Ma Rongfa tidied his clothes and strode to the inner circle.
With his status, the Princess did not dare to neglect him. She would definitely sit at the main table.
Xi Qianye found a corner and sat down in an inconspicuous seat.
"Brother, are you a family member who came with your parents?"
A young man with freckles came over and asked curiously.
There were only seven people at Xi Qianye's table.
Other than him, there were two other young men, a young girl, two middle-aged beautiful women, and a little girl.
Those who could sit there probably did not have a high status. They were either family members or ordinary nobles.
Xi Qianye glanced at him and did not say a word.
Seeing Xi Qianye's indifference, the freckled young man pursed his lips and said proudly, "My father is the president of the Yunde Chamber of Commerce. He is talking to the Princess in the inner circle."
However, Xi Qianye still ignored him.
With such an unfriendly attitude, the others at the table could not help but look over. They were slightly surprised and wondered who Xi Qianye was to be so arrogant.
But if he was of noble status, why was he sitting there?
The freckled young man was secretly angry. No matter what, he was the son of the president of the Yunde Chamber of Commerce. No one had ever ignored him like this.
"Son, ignore him."
The beautiful woman next to him pulled the freckled young man and coldly glanced at Xi Qianye.
The others at the table frowned. They did not like Xi Qianye very much.
Xi Qianye did not care what others thought of him. Why would an Immortal Emperor care about what others thought of him?
In his eyes, even the living beings of the entire Taihuang World were no different from the withered grass and rotten leaves in the wilderness.
In the eyes of the Supremes, there was no hierarchy. All living beings were equal.
"That big brother is so aloof."
The little girl on the table curled up in her mother's arms and looked at Xi Qianye with fear.
"Darling, ignore him. He's not a good person. Don't be like him in the future." The beautiful woman hugged the little girl and used Xi Qianye as a bad example.
"Look, that's the 17th prince of the Lanling Kingdom, Xiang Wenkai. He's here to attend Princess Qianxun's birthday banquet."
"The 17th prince is a prince who has the ability to fight for the throne. Princess Qianxun is so honored."
"Isn't that the Third Young Master of the Weiwu General's Residence?"
"That's Qin Guisheng, the son of the County Governor of the Luoyu County."
…
There was a lot of discussion in the garden. Everyone was talking about the important figures who were present.
The beautiful woman sitting at the same table as Xi Qianye suddenly pulled the freckled young man and pointed at a young man who had just walked in.
"Zhang 'er, look!
That's Young Master Chen, Chen Binran from Luxi County. His grandfather is the County Governor of Luxi County. His mother's family is one of the Five Great Families of Luxi County, the Su Family. His status is extremely prestigious. "
"Moreover, he's very talented. He was admitted into the inner court of the Warspear Academy. His future is limitless.
When you get into the Warspear Academy, you must try your best to get to know him and befriend him. With his connections, you can save 30 years of hard work. "
The beautiful woman was beaming with joy. The headquarters of the Yunde Chamber of Commerce was in Luxi County. If she could get the attention of the Crown Prince of Luxi County, she would definitely have a meteoric rise in the future.
Xi Qianye glanced in that direction out of boredom and his gaze suddenly froze.
He wasn't looking at Chen Binran. Instead, he was looking at the little girl next to Chen Binran.
The girl was dressed in a luxurious white dress. She wore a pair of white stilettos with silver edges. The shoes were obviously very expensive. They were made from the skin of an expensive desolate beast. They shone brightly, accentuating her tall and slender figure.
Coupled with her beautiful face and gorgeous jewelry, she was very dazzling in the crowd.
"Meng Yuxuan."
Xi Qianye's eyes flashed with a look of contemplation.
In the young Xi Qianye's heart, Meng Yuxuan was someone who left a deep impression on him.
Chen Binran, who was standing beside Meng Yuxuan, seemed to have felt Xi Qianye's gaze. He smiled proudly and reached out to hug Meng Yuxuan's slender waist. He smiled faintly and said, "Yuxuan, someone is staring at you. Xi Qianye still can't forget you."
Meng Yuxuan frowned when she heard that. She followed Chen Binran's gaze and saw Xi Qianye.
Why was he here?
Meng Yuxuan was puzzled. With Xi Qianye's status, it was impossible for him to be qualified to attend Princess Qianxun's birthday banquet. He didn't even have the right to sit outside.
"Brother Chen, he and I are already in the past. We have nothing to do with each other. I will explain it to him." Meng Yuxuan explained.
With that, she walked towards Xi Qianye.
Along the way, she attracted the attention of many people. The surrounding people were very curious.
As Chen Binran's female companion, she shouldn't be sitting outside.
Even if she couldn't sit at the main table, she should at least be in the inner circle. What was she doing here?
"Xi Qianye, what are you doing here?"
Meng Yuxuan looked at Xi Qianye emotionlessly. It was as if she was looking at a stranger.
"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you." Xi Qianye said faintly.
Looking at the gorgeous woman standing in front of him, memories of the past flashed through his mind.
Meng Yuxuan, Xi Qianye's ex-girlfriend.
"Of course it has nothing to do with me. I'm just here to tell you that we are over. I hope you will stop pestering me and don't disturb my happiness.
I have already found a lover that I am satisfied with and I am very happy. "
Meng Yuxuan said coldly.
Although they had broken up a long time ago, she did not have a boyfriend before. She was really afraid that Xi Qianye would find out that she was dating Chen Binran and start to pester her endlessly. She was afraid that Chen Binran would hate her if he found out that she was dating Chen Binran.
"Pestering me?"
Xi Qianye smiled in his heart.
Meng Yuxuan, Meng Yuxuan, you think too highly of yourself.
"Since you have found someone you like, I wish you happiness." Xi Qianye said faintly.
A word of blessing ended a relationship. There was no need to speak ill of them. Once lovers, now they were just strangers.
"I hope you can keep your word." Meng Yuxuan said faintly.
"You and I don't know each other at all." This sentence completely drew a line between the two of them.
Meng Yuxuan seemed to have gotten a satisfactory answer. She took a deep look at Xi Qianye, then turned around and left. She was very free and straightforward. She didn't look back again.
Looking at Meng Yuxuan's back, Xi Qianye was as calm as water.
If it was the former Xi Qianye, he would be very sad.
Xi Qianye and Meng Yuxuan met by chance at the Lake of Intentions. Then they got to know each other and fell in love. Six years had passed in a flash.
At that time, Meng Yuxuan was still young and simple. She didn't care about Xi Qianye's status and ability.
At that time, when she loved someone, she only loved that person; when she looked at someone, she only liked to look at the same face.
However, in the mortal world, people's hearts changed.
Xi Qianye picked up the wine on the table and drank it all. It was a farewell to the past.
Chen Binran looked at Xi Qianye proudly, then put his arm around Meng Yuxuan's waist and walked proudly to the center of the banquet area.
The beautiful woman at the table looked at him with disdain. It turned out that he was a poor man abandoned by a woman.
Young Master Chen Binran was a noble person. Compared to him, he was a real dragon in the sky and an ant on the ground.
After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere in the garden became lively. There were constantly people coming up to toast and make friends.
In the center of the open space, beautiful dancers were dancing. The zither and the zither were singing together beautifully.
"Since Your Highness is in such a good mood, then Zhi Chen will be a little embarrassed."
During the banquet, a young man in white suddenly stood up from the main table in the inner circle and strode to the center of the open space. He was in high spirits.
Su Zhi Chen!
