Chapter 245: The Princess's Generous Gift from the Princess of Chu County

Princess Ning'an slapped the table and scolded: "Lord Anping, what's the matter with your sister, when will it be her turn to intervene in this palace, there are really no rules, this is your hospitality?"

Bai Yunxi was taken aback, and she didn't understand that this Ning'an County Lord was still sarcastic about Bai Mujian just now, why did she come to attack her at this time, and she was aggrieved and embarrassed in her heart.

Bai Mujin owed a debt to the county lord of Ning'an, and then said: "The princess is angry, the sister is not sensible, please take care of it, since several distinguished guests are unwilling to stay here, I will lead you to the Wangxing Tower in the mansion, where the view is broad, you can overlook the entire Ningguo Mansion, surrounded by water, and with wine and food, it is a good place to drink and feast!"

Princess Ning'an accepted her anger at this time, she didn't help Bai Muhibiscus speak, but in the eyes of these dustless princesses, Bai Yunxi had no title and no status, and she dared to talk to herself in their circle, even if she arranged her own sisters, it made them extremely despised.

They came to make things difficult for Bai Hibiscus, that is, they regarded Bai Hibiscus as a person of equal status, and she was finally a county lord, no matter how the county lord of Bai Hibiscus came about, the emperor had decreed that it would be canonized, even if they were dissatisfied, they would not refuse to recognize her status.

Therefore, since the three princesses are willing to come to the Ningguo Mansion, they are rushing to Bai Muhibiscus, the county lord, and the others, they don't pay attention to them!

As a royal princess, who is not arrogant, can soar to the sky for Bai Hibiscus, naturally she is unhappy, so she is sarcastic. But there is still some curiosity and admiration in their hearts, they can win the championship in one fell swoop at the Hundred Flowers Feast, and defeat the Chu County Royal Mansion with their good scheming, these two points alone are enough to make them admit Bai Hibiscus's ability!

Therefore, Bai Yunxi said those words that insinuated Bai Mujian, which made her feel even more displeased, a daughter born to a concubine, even if she bears the name of a concubine, she still can't change her lowly background!

"Just according to the meaning of the county lord of Anping, there are too many people here, and it is strange and noisy!" Princess Tai'an stood up with a thousand graces as she spoke, revealing the princess's grandeur in her every move.

Bai Mujin led the way in front, led a few people to the Wangxing Tower, where the seats had already been set up, and the place was also spacious, and ordered the subordinates to serve some fruits and tea, and then said: "A few distinguished guests will drink tea first, I will arrange some wine and food, and then come to accompany me!"

"Hey...... Lord Anping, what is the matter with you leaving us here when your master is gone?" Tai'an said unhappily.

Bai Mujin actually didn't bother to pay attention to these few people who were tall and tall, and there was no one in their eyes, originally everyone didn't violate the river water, but it was okay, they came to be a guest today and made provocative remarks, just now there were many people in the flower hall, she didn't want to see them in general, but it didn't mean that she was afraid of them.

Now that they have brought people here according to their request, it would be a bit unkind to want to stay here for their amusement!

"Princess, please forgive me, there are so many guests in the mansion, as the host of today's banquet, you can't even take a picture and hide here, right?" Bai Mu Hibiscus replied with a smile.

Tai'an narrowed his eyes dissatisfied, and said, "What are they, can they be compared to a few of us?"

"Everyone who comes is a guest, no matter how high or low, they must be treated with courtesy, what does the princess think?" asked Bai Mu Hibiscus quietly!

Tai'an snorted, it was an answer, she couldn't say that because the status of those people was not as good as their princess county lord, she could be lazy and spread it, she didn't know that the princess would be hated by many people, and her reputation would not be good.

Princess Chang'an is the oldest, and she seems to be the most hidden among these people, so she hasn't said much so far, so Bai Mujin doesn't know if she is as hostile to herself as Tinglan.

At this time, she said understandingly: "The county lord of Anping just needs to go and get busy, there is no need to greet us, I heard that the Nine Emperor Uncles are also here, and several brothers from the palace are also going to the banquet, it is better to send someone to invite them over, and when the county lord is done, it is not too late to come and accompany him!"

Bai Mujin nodded, and then he said goodbye and left, and sent someone to inform Bai Muchen and Lu Qingyun to invite those princes and grandsons to Wangxing Tower.

She herself returned to the flower hall, because the guests had not arrived, and she had to stay here to support the scene.

Unexpectedly, the people from the Chu County Mansion did not come, but they sent someone to give gifts, and they must give gifts in front of everyone.

That person was the steward of the Chu County Palace, that is, the one who entertained Bai Shizu and his wife in front of the County Palace.

"The slave greets the county lord, and the county lord is blessed!" the steward saluted respectfully.

Bai Mujin in front of everyone, although he knew that the people of the Chu County Mansion were not well-intentioned, he still politely invited someone to get up, and said: "It's good to give the gift to the palace, if the steward is interested, you can stay and have a cup of tea before leaving!"

The steward waved his hand and said, "Thank you for the grace of the princess, but the slave came to present the gift on the order of the master, and the master explained that he had to show the gift in front of the county lord, so he could be regarded as fulfilling his heart!"

Bai Mujin looked at him and smiled maliciously, so he asked, "What kind of valuable gift is it, you have to see it first?"

"It's not expensive to talk about it, but this is a painting made by the princess of Chu County, the courtesy is light and affectionate, and the county lord is invited to smile!" The steward said sincerely, but unfortunately there was a provocation in his eyes, as if Bai Mujin did not dare to demolish the painting in public because he was afraid of the palace of Chu County.

The surrounding guests all looked at Bai Mujian and the steward with great interest, the festival of the prince of Chu County and the lord of Anping had already spread all over the capital, and the princess of Chu County sent someone to offer a painting at this time, and she had to offer it in public, which must have been unkind.

However, they are naturally not afraid of big things when they see the excitement, and they still want to use a wall of white hibiscus to resolve the crisis.

Bai Mujin looked around at everyone, and when he saw their eager eyes, he knew that whether he looked at this painting or not today, he would fall into the trap of the princess of Chu County, and if she didn't look at it, others would spread that she was unpretentious about her overtures to the princess of Chu County, and looked down on the princess of Chu County.

After reading it, this painting must not be a good meaning, and it has to be pointed at and poked at the joke.

Bai Mujin smiled, and then said generously: "Since the princess of the county is so gracious, the palace naturally can't live up to it, so please ask this steward to open the painting scroll for the palace!"

A hint of joy flashed in the steward's eyes, and he agreed without hesitation, and as soon as he pulled the red line of the painting scroll, the painting immediately unfolded, and it was a picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix.

"The princess of Suwen County is very good, and it is really extraordinary when I see it today!" The one who opened her mouth to praise was the lady of the protector, who had always been good friends with the palace of Chu County.

The steward's eyes were triumphant, as if the painting had been painted by himself, but unfortunately there was a faint irony in his eyes when he looked at Bai Hibiscus.

Bai Mujin had already seen that there was something wrong with this painting, and it was clearly a picture of congratulating her on being crowned the county lord and a hundred birds coming to congratulate, but the phoenix was a fake phoenix.

Sure enough, after a while, someone exclaimed: "Where is this phoenix, look at it...... The lord of the county, if it is a phoenix, it should also be seven-tailed, but the phoenix has no crown, and it is only six-tailed. It's a fake phoenix!"

A fake phoenix made the audience quiet, or sympathetic, or gloating eyes drifted to Bai Mujian, all wanting to see, in the face of the blatant sarcasm and provocation of the princess of Chu County, was the county lord furious, or swallowed his anger?

After the man finished speaking, he also realized that he was reckless, and the people present were not blind, how could they look at it for a while and not find that it was a fake phoenix, and they obviously didn't want to be this bird.

But now everyone's eyes are focused on Bai Hibiscus, and no one notices the person who first pointed out that Phoenix has a problem. So she also hid in the crowd and hid herself.

Lu Feiyuan stood beside Bai Hibiscus, took her hand, and signaled that she didn't have to be angry, Bai Hibiscus smiled at her comfortingly, everyone came to the door and slapped her in the face, did she still have to stretch out the other side of her face?

Bai Muhibiscus frowned slightly, took the painting in his hand, admired it carefully, and praised: "Well, the princess of the county's wonderful hand Danqing is really excellent." Merely...... Why do these hundred birds want to congratulate a peacock? What a strange thing!"

The steward thought that Bai Muhibiscus couldn't understand the sarcasm of the princess of Chu County at all, and secretly felt that this girl was too stupid, and she couldn't see such an obvious sarcasm, and people were ridiculing her as the county lord in vain, not a real phoenix, just a bird flying on the branches!

The spectators probably thought the same thing in their hearts, so many people looked at Bai Hibiscus with sympathy and contempt, they were still what a great person they were as the new county lord, but it turned out that they were just a girl who had never seen the world. What a disappointment!

The corners of Bai Mujian's mouth showed a little mockery, and said: "It is said that a hundred birds are facing the phoenix, if the princess of Chu County doesn't even know the phoenix, she must be mocking these divine birds who came to congratulate the phoenix Yu Fei, who made these congratulatory birds even the phoenix and the peacock admit their mistakes, and come over stupidly to congratulate, is this what the princess of Chu County means?"

Bai Mujian's eyes showed a sharp light, staring directly at the steward, the coldness in his words was very obvious, and the steward felt a little cold in his heart.

All the spectators were suddenly excited by Bai Hibiscus's words, this princess of Chu County is too much, it is just enough to satirize Bai Hibiscus, why do you even have to satirize the guests who came to congratulate today?

"Hmph, I think that the princess of Chu County not only wants to satirize those birds who congratulate her, but also the person who is crowned a phoenix! If she wants to hold a peacock on a high platform, isn't it satirizing the saint with no eyes? Princess Chu County is really bold!" The person who spoke was Mrs. Lu, and the reason why she didn't speak just now was waiting for Bai Mu Hibiscus's attack.
