Chapter 2428: Where’s His Royal Highness? (2)Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It was a stark contrast to the Zuo family.

There were guests from all nine major clans. Even a royal banquet probably wouldn’t have so many people.

“Where’s His Royal Highness?” That was the only thing Mrs. Zuo cared about.

Granny Tao replied with a smile, “We sent invitations to the crown prince, Young Lord Feng, and Young Lord Xuan.”

Mrs. Zuo nodded. “They were friends with Luan when they were little. I’m sure they’ll be here to celebrate Luan’s birthday.”

Granny Tao said, “I’m sure they’ll come.”

Just then, they heard the announcement outside. “Princess Mu Yaoyao is here on behalf of the Mu family.”

Mrs. Zuo said happily, “Look, Princess Mu is here.”

Immediately after that, there was another announcement. “Princess Jun Wuxia is here.”

Jun Wuxia and Zuo Qingluan had been good friends since they were little. Her presence meant a lot.

Unlike old Mrs. Gu’s birthday, the guests weren’t government officials.

Most of them were n.o.ble ladies with their daughters, and some had brought their sons as well. After all, Zuo Qingluan had many admirers.

For instance, Mrs. Dugu brought both Dugu Yamo and Dugu Mengxi.

The teenagers gathered in the garden, and the mothers and daughters stayed indoors and chatted.

Of course, their conversation revolved around lavis.h.i.+ng praise on Zuo Qingluan.

They all said that she was the most talented and capable young woman in the empire, and her True Phoenix Blood made her the only candidate for the future wife of the crown prince.

Mrs. Tao and Tao Qingqing were there as well.

They were in a quieter corner of the room.

Mrs. Tao nudged Tao Qingqing. “Why don’t you say h.e.l.lo to Miss Qingluan?”

Tao Qingqing thought very highly of herself as well and didn’t like the idea of sucking up to Zuo Qingluan.

Mrs. Tao lowered her voice and chided her daughter in a voice that only the two of them could hear. “You’re going to marry Prince Jun Linshen one day, and that will make you and Miss Qingluan sister-in-laws. Just go!”

Tao Qingqing said, “Prince Jun Linshen doesn’t get on well with His Royal Highness…”

Mrs. Tao said sternly, “Use your brain! Prince Jun Linshen will never be the crown prince’s match! He’ll always be only a prince!”

Tao Qingqing said, “Mother, how can you say such things about your future son-in-law?! If that’s the case, why do you want me to marry him?!”

Mrs. Tao said, “Do you think you can marry His Royal Highness, then?”

Tao Qingqing said, “Mother!”

Mrs. Tao was very direct. “I’m not criticizing you, but you’re just not the sharpest tool in the box. Your father and I have indulged you, and you’ve never been a hardworking cultivator. You’re simply not Miss Qingluan’s match.”

Tao Qingqing snorted. “It’s not certain that Zuo Qingluan will marry His Royal Highness. That Feng Wu has a chance, too.”

Mrs. Tao rubbed her head affectionately and sighed. “Sweetheart, you know nothing about marriage. Yes, His Royal Highness is fond of that girl, and we all can see it. So what?”

Tao Qingqing was confused. “What do you mean?”
