The evil sister is in charge, and the mother is getting married

Chapter 282 The Great Yue Emperor, sitting above, practically rolled his eyes to the heavens.
"Although this wine is osmanthus rice wine and sweet, it's very strong, so be careful," Lu Lingyun said, pressing down on Sheng Wanqiu's glass as soon as she saw her pouring the wine.

"Don't worry! Your sister and I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk!" Sheng Wanqiu said with a smug smile, raising her eyebrows.

"Don't say I didn't warn you if you get too drunk!" Lu Lingyun said with amusement as she looked at Sheng Wanqiu's playful expression. Then she let her be. If she got too drunk, she could just stay in the palace. As long as she didn't act crazy, there wouldn't be any major problems.

Then the music started, and the third princess performed by dancing and painting at the same time.

Accompanied by the rhythmic beat of the music, Lu Tangyun danced gracefully, a calligraphy brush dangling from her mouth. She lifted her leg, bent over, and spun around, her movements clearly the result of extensive practice.

Sheng Wanqiu drank three cups of osmanthus rice wine in a row, then stood up and clapped and cheered. Goodness, this was the first time she had ever seen such a performance. She could multitask! This dim-witted idiot was actually a talented woman! Amazing!
The Great Yue Emperor, sitting above, rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. Couldn't he tell the difference between the princes and the kings? If anyone's going to shout, it'll be me first. I'm the boss of the palace. If you stand up and shout, then I'll stand up and shout too!

"Good! Tang'er is amazing!" The Emperor of Da Yue stood up and clapped his hands loudly.

"Wow! Third Princess, amazing! Amazing, amazing!" As soon as Sheng Wanqiu heard the Emperor of Da Yue shout, her competitive spirit immediately kicked in, and she continued to clap and cheer!
"Reward! Be generous! Good! Clap clap clap clap!" The Emperor of Great Yue continued to clap and cheer.

The Empress Dowager was a little embarrassed. If it weren't for so many people present, she would have given her unreliable eldest son a good beating for arguing with a little girl!

Consort Xian covered her face, oh my god! She awkwardly dug her toes into the ground. It was her daughter performing, and it was her daughter's father cheering. Wasn't this just self-praise? For the first time, she felt that being a concubine was quite shameful.

Consort De's face was grim as she gripped her wine glass tightly. Damn it! These people all deserve to die!
As the last drumbeat sounded, Lu Tangyun leaped into the air, finished her stroke, and then kicked the brush she had thrown out back into the brush holder.

Sheng Wanqiu was so excited that she had already put one foot on the table. If Lu Lingyun and Lu Shuxue hadn't held her down on either side, she would have jumped onto the table.

"Wow wow wow! One back, one back, clap clap clap!" Sheng Wanqiu was definitely a cheerleader, clapping wildly.

Princess Lu Tangyun had already heard Sheng Wanqiu's cheers. With someone so supportive of her performance, there's a saying: "A scholar will die for one who understands him." Fine, she unilaterally declared that Princess Yonghe would be her friend from now on!

Next, the remaining fourth and fifth princesses began their performances. One played the flute, and the other played the pipa. Their performances were decent, nothing particularly outstanding, but they didn't fizzle out either. Sheng Wanqiu was very accommodating and gave the two princesses a perfunctory round of applause after their performances.

"Hey! Now that we're acquainted, let's have a clap. I hereby declare you my friend, Lu Tangyun's friend. How about it?"

Princess Lu Tangyun, who had gone downstairs to change clothes for some reason, squeezed in with a wine glass in hand, pushing aside the speechless Lu Shuxue and sitting down next to Sheng Wanqiu.

Mainly, she didn't dare to push her older sister, Lu Lingyun, for fear of being choked. She was right there when Lu Shiyun was choked back then, and she was so scared she didn't dare to breathe. It was a kind of psychological trauma. So no matter how silly she was in the palace, she wouldn't dare to act up in front of her older sister, Lu Lingyun. "Alright! More friends, more paths. Cheers! Let's drink three!" Sheng Wanqiu immediately raised her glass and invited her. More friends are good, much better than more enemies.

She also saw the malice in the eyes of the beautiful woman sitting above. Thanks to the helpful introduction from the gossip expert Lu Shuxue, she learned that this woman was none other than the annoying Consort De, who was said to be quite favored. It seemed that this person was no pushover either.

Lu Lingyun has already left the palace and is living elsewhere, but the Third Princess is still living in the palace. If there's any trouble, this funny idiot will definitely be the first to know.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I'll definitely tell her. It's also very necessary to get to know her. Besides, she really admires this silly princess. She's talented, funny, and a bit brainless. Isn't she her chosen friend? Hehe.

"Great! I'm not afraid of you! Come on! Drink!"

Lu Tangyun was also very happy. It was rare for someone to appreciate her. Her mother always said that she was a stupid idiot, and others also secretly said that she was brainless. But she called it being wise in a foolish way. What did she know? Anyway, she refused to admit that she was brainless.

She knew that Sheng Wanqiu was the goddaughter of Grand Tutor Qiao, and that she had a good relationship with the old man, Prince Wu'an, and especially with her eldest sister, Lu Lingyun. Not to mention her cousin, who was full of cunning. These were all solid connections!

If I were to be tricked by that little bitch Lu Shiyun again in the future, I could easily get help through my connection with Sheng Wanqiu. Wouldn't that be incredibly satisfying? The most crucial thing is that Sheng Wanqiu appreciates me, and that's enough!

So the two of them started drinking, one glass after another, and the more they talked, the more they clicked. Fueled by the alcohol, they both felt like they had found kindred spirits. Girls' friendships are that simple; all they need to do is dislike the same person.

Lu Shuxue joined in the chatter, saying that she was good at talking bad about Lu Shiyun. So the three of them started gossiping and chattering away. At this moment, only Lu Lingyun sat quietly to the side, her lips twitching from the occasional shocking remarks from the three of them.

The Empress Dowager was getting old, and she made an excuse to leave halfway through the banquet. As soon as she left, Consort De also made an excuse to leave. Consort Xian didn't dare to leave, mainly because she knew from her daughter's condition that she was already drunk, and if she left, she doubted anyone could stop her.

Qiao Wenyuan and Lu Heng also left; they were too old to sit for long periods, so they went home early.

Qiao Wenyuan wasn't worried about Sheng Wanqiu. In any case, she wouldn't get lost in the palace, so he was quite at ease about that.

Although the capital of Da Yue said not to be reserved and to drink and eat as much as they wanted, everyone still behaved themselves. But sometimes it seems like what you fear most is what happens.

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, come home with me tonight. If you like any of my eight nephews, I'll pack them up and send them to your palace immediately. I guarantee that every single one of them is a top-notch handsome man!"

Sheng Wanqiu jumped onto the table, her head bowed with excitement, and shouted loudly at Lu Tangyun, whose face was flushed with embarrassment.
