That evening, the Nanyang Prince Mansion hosted another welcome banquet.
At the banquet, Young Master Zheng engaged in sharp-tongued sparring, Fourth Young Master Wang veiled his words in silk and needles, and the Commandery Princess, when she chose to speak, joined in the mockery without any bias.
As for Mr. Cui Du, he completely refrained from such verbal duels, immersing himself in his feast. Occasionally, if any waves involved him, the Commandery Princess would step in to shield him.
After the banquet dispersed, Zheng Chen insisted on escorting Jiang Shaohua back to her courtyard.
Wang Jin, seeing Zheng Chen's demeanor, was truly irked. He had arrived several days earlier and never escorted the Commandery Princess! What right did Zheng Chen have to act so domineeringly?
Fortunately, the Commandery Princess had no intention of indulging Zheng Chen: "I reside in the inner courtyard where it's improper for men. Zheng Sheren, return early to rest."
