Chapter 2531: The Crown Prince Consort Is Here
2531 The Crown Prince Consort Is Here Near noon.
Six thoroughly raven black mystic horses with glossy hair pranced along Changle Boulevard and turned left toward Kangle Street.
The land in this area was extremely expensive. Those who were not important officials or from powerful clans truly had no qualifications nor the financial ability to settle on Kangle Street. Frankly speaking, even if you had the purchasing ability, those who were not influential officials or patrician families could not live on Kangle Street.
The Zhongli Estate, which occupied the most prominent spot on Kangle Street, was three to four times larger than ordinary estates. As a result, it was not outdone by the row of princely and aristocratic estates on the south side of Changle Boulevard.
The appearance of the Eastern Palace's carriage caused a small uproar.
The people from the Zhongli Estate immediately came out in welcome when they received the news. They arranged for the Eastern Palace's carriage to directly enter the estate rather than park outside.
Great General Zhongli's eldest daughter-in-law, Eldest Young Madam Zhongli, came to welcome the carriage. She respectfully escorted the Eastern Palace's carriage inside along with two rows of maidservants.
The carriage stopped at the entrance to the inner court. Qiao Mu did not need help and walked out of the carriage by herself. Her cold and quiet gaze landed on the dignified Eldest Young Madam, the person in the lead.
Eldest Young Madam Zhongli knelt down in greeting and said with a smile, "The crown prince consort honors us with your presence and brings light to our humble dwelling."
Seeing that she was rather courteous, Miss Qiao suppressed her intention to pick a fight.
Mhm, as long as you behaved and did not make trouble for Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao wouldn't make trouble for you.
On the other hand, this Eldest Young Madam Zhongli couldn't help but suppress her astonishment at the crown prince consort's beauty when she looked up at the latter.
This young crown prince consort in front of her was truly too beautiful but cold, yet there was a bit of cheer amongst this aloofness.
Her hair was done up into two matching buns. She was a cute little stoic.
Beneath her crimson cape was a red furred collar. It circled around her slender neck, contrasting against her fair white face. She truly looked too lovely.
Qiao Mu gestured for them to rise. She then pattered toward the entrance to the main hall.
The eldest young madam personally led the way and said while smiling, "Mother-in-Law originally wanted to personally welcome Your Highness the Crown Prince Consort, but your imperial aunt, the Kang Prince Consort, just so happened to also arrive. Mother-in-Law truly is not able to step away at the moment."
Qiao Mu nodded, not intending to make things difficult.
For this plum-blossom viewing banquet, they had naturally invited all the aristocratic madams in the city. It was unavoidable that they were busy welcoming this and that person. There was nothing to say about that.
Young Madam Zhongli was seven to eight years older than the crown prince consort. It was imagined that young people would have common topics of conversation.
Yet who knew that the crown prince consort would be a taciturn stoic face.
Speaking of which, the stoic face never had a common topic of conversation with anybody...
Thinking back of when she was pretending to be a maidservant in the Qin Estate, she wasn't a people person either!
She didn't understand why she wasn't popular! Qiaoqiao wrinkled her petite nose.
The eldest young madam beside her was feeling uncertain and restless when she saw the little stoic's cold expression.
The crown prince consort was... unhappy?
"The crown prince consort is here!" After this announcement, the noise inside the main hall came to an orderly halt.
The stoic face walked inside without much expression on her face. The people sitting inside the main hall all turned their gazes toward her.
What a young beauty with a fair complexion and supple skin!
