The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 763: Chapter 738: Praise

Mrs. Xia smiled and said, ”Don’t worry, you definitely won’t be disappointed. My niece’s appearance speaks for itself; there’s no need for me to praise her excessively!”

A noblewoman said, ”If you’re not going to praise her looks, what will you praise?”

She had heard that the two young masters of Mrs. Xia’s family were outstanding, yet she had never boasted about them. Could it be that her niece was more remarkable than her sons? If that’s the case, perhaps my nephew could seek her hand in marriage!

After all, to become in-laws with the Prime Minister is a great fortune. Not only would my family’s status rise, but my nephew’s future would also be limitless!

Princess Ning, intrigued, said, ”Really? You’ve piqued my curiosity. Why don’t you tell us about your niece? She will surely attend today, right?”

Seeing everyone’s high expectations for Xia Wenjin, Mrs. Xia was pleased and said, ”Of course, she promised me she would come! She has never broken her word to me!”

”When will she arrive?” Several noblewomen couldn’t help but ask.

Mrs. Xia pointed towards the southern flower hall and said, ”Isn’t that her coming now?”

Following her gesture, everyone looked in the direction she pointed, only to see a maid leading a noble young lady into the southern flower hall. The girl was about sixteen or seventeen, walked with a light step, and was indeed very beautiful. Her brows were like distant mountains, her eyes clear like water, her skin was as smooth as jade, and her lips like cherries. Her features were lively and harmonious, like a painter’s meticulously crafted masterpiece!

A noblewoman murmured, ”If such looks aren’t worthy of praise, then what is?”

Even with their critical eyes, they couldn’t speak any false words; this young lady was truly too beautiful!

Mrs. Xia smiled faintly and said, ”Of course, it’s her strengths that are worthy of praise. Why praise ordinary advantages?”

Princess Ning became even more interested and said, ”Mrs. Xia, everyone is eagerly waiting, please tell us more!”

Mrs. Xia leisurely laughed and said, ”Since she’s here, there’s no need for me to brag. You’ll have interactions with her eventually, and then you’ll see just how remarkable she is!”

Everyone: ”...”

Stopping halfway through the compliment, that’s too much!

Seeing that she clearly didn’t want to say more, nobody insisted further. They were all people of status, with eyes of their own, they could just see for themselves!

As more guests arrived, Princess Ning felt quite pleased seeing so many beautiful and outstanding noble ladies arrive, imagining that one of them might catch the eye of the Second Young Master. Inevitably, she speculated about which one it might be!

She tentatively said to Mrs. Xia, ”Your niece is so excellent, has a marriage arrangement been made for her?”

Mrs. Xia had indeed asked Xia Wenjin this question before, and now she replied with a smile, ”Not yet!”

Princess Ning was even more delighted, better yet, she hoped that none of the noble ladies attending had any engagements!

A noblewoman said to Mrs. Xia with a smile, ”The two young masters of the Prime Minister’s Mansion are so outstanding, it’s quite a blessing. Maybe through Princess Ning’s gathering, one could find their match, don’t you think?”

Princess Ning laughed, ”Yes, yes, happy, happy”... Indeed!

Initially, she was quite pleased, but amidst this group of noble ladies, Princess He Ye’s appearance was only average!

Her daughter, a dignified Commandery Princess, had no advantages; she didn’t want others to find happiness at her banquet while her daughter ended up empty-handed!

Thinking about this, her mood suddenly darkened.

A noblewoman said, ”The Capital City is truly bustling and lively, full of talented people. I’ve been in Ningzhou for fifteen years, looking forward to this day!”
