Chapter 895: Chapter 895: Suxin Villa

Xuexue got off the carriage, all the young noble ladies and gentlemen were stopped at the entrance, pointing towards the Side courtyard with expressions of surprise and delight.

Following their gazes, Xuexue saw a golden plaque above the entrance with four characters written in the dragon and phoenix dance script - Suxin Villa.

It was said that the Emperor himself wrote the plaque for Suxin Villa and presented it to the Empress.

The Emperor was reputed to have dearly loved the Empress back in the day, bestowing upon her great favor, and gifted her this title. However, in recent years, as the Empress’s youth faded and with numerous beauties in the Harem, the Emperor’s affection gradually drifted elsewhere, turning his attentions to other young and beautiful Concubines.

Yet, the Empress would often reminisce about the Emperor’s kindness, especially this Side courtyard, where she would reside every now and then, mourning the loving days of her past with the Emperor.

The Suxin Villa covered a vast area, truly befitting of a Royal Villa, decorated with opulence throughout.

As soon as they entered, they saw antique pavilions and pagodas everywhere.

Further inside were the inner rooms, the living quarters of the host, with corners of the rooms stood white marble columns, the surrounding walls crafted from white stone bricks, Gold crafted orchids blooming enchantingly among the white stones, green muslin curtains rippling with the breeze.

Everyone was staring wide-eyed in astonishment.

No wonder it was a royal craftsmanship, even the Side courtyard was so luxurious and extravagant.

"Everyone must be tired after sitting in the carriage for so long, have something to eat; in a bit, feel free to wander around. To the east of the Side courtyard is a wooded area, with birdsong and fragrant flowers, frequented by small animals, making for a perfect autumn outing," said the Fourth Prince with a smile to everyone upon arriving in the grand hall.

Suxin Garden was usually maintained by a lot of servants.

The Fourth Prince had informed them in advance that they would come here for an autumn outing today, so there was plenty of food prepared.

As they entered, the table was already laden with food, Xuexue took a cursory look at the dishes, no fewer than a hundred varieties, truly a royal gesture, even a simple meal was this extravagant.

Little Baby, upon hearing there was food, no longer pretended to be sick, jumping down from Xuexue’s arms, sitting at the edge of the table, grabbing food with both hands and starting to eat.

This left everyone dumbfounded, thinking that the child really didn’t understand the rules; the Fourth Prince hadn’t even started eating, yet he was already eating first.

Some noble young ladies, already not fond of Xuexue, sarcastically remarked, "Whose brat is this? Doesn’t understand any manners, the Fourth Prince hasn’t even sat down, and he’s already eating, acting like a starving ghost reincarnate, isn’t that disgraceful?"

Xuexue wasn’t upset at all, nudging with her arm the Little Baby who was gobbling down eagerly, "Hey! They’re saying you’re like a starving ghost reincarnate, and you’re still eating."

Little Baby, cheeks bulging, mumbled unclearly, "Let her pretend to be a lady and not eat. I’m still little, I need to grow, I have to eat more." After saying that, he lowered his head and started eating again.

The Fourth Prince laughed, "It’s all right, everyone make yourselves comfortable. I won’t dine here, so you won’t feel constrained."

The noble young ladies were extremely disappointed, they had finally got a rare chance to be in close contact with the Fourth Prince, but he would not dine with them.

After the Fourth Prince exchanged a few more pleasantries, he turned and left with his guard.

The noble young ladies composed themselves and sat down beside the table, looking down at the feast, only to be stunned anew.

The table which was just brimming with dishes, now, only had vegetarian dishes left.

The one responsible for this was picking his teeth at the side, with a contented expression, "Full, so full, the Fourth Prince is too kind, there was a bit too much food prepared, I’m stuffed."
