Mengbao didn't care much about this kind of side-knocking, but the queen's later work was really a bit excessive.

Rao is that she doesn't want to have any conflict with this noble woman in the world, but she can't let others pinch and rub it like this.

If she bowed her head here today, everyone would think of Shen Nanzhu by her, thinking that Shen Nanzhu was also a good bully.

So when the Duchess Rongguo said those words, she did not persuade a couple of words in the middle like a peacemaker, or took the initiative to send the parrot out to the queen under a step, but just sat there with a light smile and listened, without interjecting at all.

Although she didn't say a word, this look undoubtedly recognized the meaning of the Duchess Rongguo and refuted the queen's face.

The hall was quiet for a while, and the smile on the queen's lips stiffened a little.

A Duchess of Rongguo has already given her a headache, is there any more Mrs. Dingnan Hou Shizi now?

And the two of them still look on the same side!

Once again, the Empress felt that her majesty had been challenged.

The ladies didn't even dare to breathe in this seemingly calm but actually tense atmosphere, in the end, the young Zhou Ru's newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and said: "Since it is a beloved thing, it should be collected in private, and it should be placed in the shop for people to misunderstand, how can you blame the person who misunderstands." ”

Mengbao sneered in her heart, she didn't even plan to give the queen's face, how could she give face to such a little girl who didn't know what to do.

Her status is inconvenient to directly open her mouth to collide with the queen, but it doesn't mean that even a little girl has to endure it.

Since this girl likes to be the first bird. Then don't blame her for being unceremoniously pointed at her.

"Miss Zhou is articulate and quick-witted, presumably after leaving the palace today, many people will go to your house to propose to your parents, maybe you will be able to drink your wedding wine in a few days."

Zhou Ru is fourteen years old this year, it is the time to discuss marriage, although she looks average, and her talent is not very good, but because she has been the companion of Princess Rong'an since she was a child, there are not a few people who intend to marry her, and her parents also want to pick a good family affair for her. Hesitating until now, there is no decision.

This is partly because she still has a lot of options. On the one hand, it is also because Princess Rong'an has not yet married, if their companions have become married earlier than Rong'an, it seems as if she can't marry a princess of a country.

Zhou Ru had also heard her mother vaguely mention it to her a few times, but she asked her with a deep meaning that she thought the young master of which family was better. It's more to her heart.

But like this, it was directly said to someone's face. And it was mentioned in front of so many women in public. But it's the first time.

Her face was flushed to the base of her neck, and her tongue was a little knotted.

"You...... What nonsense are you talking about! In the palace of the queen mother, is there such a place to say such things! ”

Mengbao looked innocent: "So many female dependents are present today. Who doesn't have a few young masters of the right age, I thought that Miss Zhou came to show her face in front of everyone, so as to find a family business! ”

Deliberately show your face to find a family business?

Zhou Ru's face instantly turned from red to pale.

Isn't this scolding her for being stinky and rushing to everyone with her face, and she is anxious to marry herself?

If such a word spreads, her Zhou Ru's reputation will be completely finished!

And today, it is clear that the queen wants to choose a horse for Princess Rong'an, and she said that she seems to be going to grab a horse candidate!

This...... If this makes her have a dislike with Princess Rong'an, then it will be a big deal!

"You...... You're so shameless! Such a thing can be said! Today is the queen's mother who invites everyone to participate in the chrysanthemum banquet, what is not a family matter! ”

"So? I saw that other people's young ladies were sitting there quietly and didn't make a sound, only Miss Zhou kept talking, and I thought Miss Zhou was trying to be in the limelight. ”

There was a burst of chuckles around, and several nobles couldn't help but hide their mouths.

In the past, if you encounter such a great opportunity, who doesn't want to be in the limelight?

But everyone knows in their hearts that this is the day to choose a colt for Princess Rong'an, and they were called to be a foil, and even the clothes are specially found before going out, for fear of overshadowing Princess Rong'an's limelight.

Zhou Ru looks average, but on weekdays, she is arrogant and domineering because she is Princess Rong'an's companion, and she is only invited to her among the princess's companions today, and she is even more proud, and she dares to interject on such an occasion.

Although what Mrs. Shizi said was a little embarrassing, they were still very happy to see Zhou Ru deflated.

"I don't want to be in the limelight! You are talking nonsense! ”

Zhou Ru is a little girl who has not yet been out of the cabinet and has not gone through the wind and waves, how can she afford to be ridiculed and teased in such a large public, and her eyes are full of tears after saying a few words.

Mengbao didn't have the slightest pity in her heart, and continued: "Miss Zhou must also be the pearl of the family, but Lord Zhou and Mrs. Zhou not only did not lock you in the courtyard and hide it, but also let you accompany Princess Rong'an to participate in today's chrysanthemum banquet, which will inevitably make people misunderstand. But Miss Zhou is so understanding, she must not blame me, right? ”

The laughter around him was a little heavier, and Zhou Ru's eyes were like tears raining down, so she hurriedly saluted the queen and everyone present, hid her face and ran out.

The queen's brows became more and more frowned, and she finally found a chance to speak again by taking advantage of the opportunity for Zhou Ru to run out, while thoughtfully asking the palace maid to follow to see if anything happened, while looking at Mengbao with some reproach.

"She's just a teenage girl, what do you have to do with her!"

Meng Bao smiled and pretended to be coquettish: "Niangniang, the concubine is only a teenager." ”

After saying this, she got goosebumps herself, but the ladies and wives around her couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The queen's face was embarrassed, and she wanted to take the opportunity to reprimand her again, but seeing that everyone laughed at this matter, it was not easy to hold on to it anymore.

"Alright, alright." The people from the Rongguo Mansion said: "Thank you for your kindness, but I must not come to that parrot." If Niangniang really feels sorry for me, it is better to reward me with two pots of ink chrysanthemum, so that I can get what I like, and I don't have to take the things in the warehouse to help me change, wouldn't it be better? ”

The queen almost spit out a mouthful of old blood when she heard this, that Mo Ju has only cultivated more than ten plants in total this year, His Majesty took eight pots there, and the Queen Mother took three pots, and she only got two pots in the end.

Now the Duchess of Rongguo is going to leave the only two pots of ink chrysanthemum she has with a casual word. But she couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse. It's a tooth-shattering and blood-smashing mouth!

She smiled hard and nodded, beckoning everyone to follow her to the garden to enjoy the flowers, and she didn't know what she would be going to leave if she sat down here again.

Duchess Rongguo specially slowed down and wanted to wait for Mengbao to accompany her. But Mengbao didn't want to get too close to her. He deliberately turned his head to talk to the other ladies. Walked straight past her.

Mrs. Wei didn't expect her to be so cold to herself, she was slightly stunned for a moment, and then shook her head with a smile. He didn't force it anymore, and instead came together with the other ladies.

…………………………

For today's banquet, a chrysanthemum garden has been set up in the imperial garden, and all kinds of chrysanthemums in the garden are competing to open, so it is not lively.

The chrysanthemum garden is separated by a flower wall, on one side is the queen and a group of female dependents, and on the other side are some children of the family and the new science and technology scholars and talents.

The flower wall itself is only half a person high, and the arrival of the queen and others was naturally seen by the men who had already been here, and hurriedly saluted through the flower wall.

The queen smiled and signaled that everyone didn't need to be polite, today was just the banquet she held just happened to be held by Emperor Dezhao, so that everyone didn't have to be restrained.

In fact, now it is not a New Year's Festival, and it is not a Qionglin banquet, how can Emperor Dezhao hold this kind of banquet lightly, and since it is held, how can he not show up in person.

Therefore, some people present understood the real intention behind today's banquet, some people didn't care, some people laughed it off, and some people were quite serious and eager to try.

In this way, naturally some people subconsciously set their eyes on the queen's side, wanting to find the legendary Princess Rong'an, who has both ability and integrity.

And when it comes to appearance, it is natural to find the most beautiful one among all the people present.

Princess Rong'an stood there with her back straight, her expression was pleasant, her demeanor was myriad, and her lips were wearing the same gentle smile as the queen.

She stood there quietly, her eyes lowered, gentle and elegant, but the corner of her eye kept paying attention to everyone's gaze.

Everyone's eyes came to her direction as expected, her back straightening and straightening, but those eyes slid straight past her, without stopping, and finally stopped in a corner behind her.

Imaginary amazement burst out of the eyes of these men, but the object of amazement was not her.

Qi Mohan was like being poured a basin of cold water, even if he didn't look back, he could know who these men were looking at now.

Because she herself was like this when she first saw that person, and it was so difficult to take her eyes off.

The men on the other side of the flower wall immediately came back to their senses after a short period of amazement, how could a woman with a woman's head be Princess Rong'an, and how could Princess Rong'an stand in such an inconspicuous corner.

Their eyes swept back to the queen, and they saw a group of female dependents standing beside her, as well as Qi Mohan and Qi Moxiang who were standing quietly.

Qi Moxiangsheng was not as good-looking as Qi Mohan, and today, in order not to steal the limelight from Qi Mohan, her mother also specially picked out a very unsightly dress for her.

Comparing the two, everyone can naturally tell at a glance who Princess Qi Mohan of Rong'an is.

Qi Moxiang was a little indignant in his heart, and the handkerchief in his hand was twisted and twisted, but he didn't know that Qi Mohan, who was smiling, was not comfortable in his heart.

Those gazes had just gone from amazement to disappointment, and when they finally fell on her, they became indifferent, and there was only some respect left.

She is the queen's concubine, the much-loved Princess Rong'an, and the most important thing she has been lacking since she was a child is respect, which is as normal for her as eating and sleeping every day, and there is nothing new to say.

The queen noticed the slight change in her daughter's affection, and patted her arm with a smile, her fingertips a little harder.

Qi Mohan came back to his senses, nodded with a light smile, and signaled that he was fine.

After everyone greeted each other, they all dispersed, and there was a peaceful flower-viewing garden.

Mengbao didn't realize that something was wrong until this time, how could the banquet held by the queen not be met with a group of men, and they were all young men.

Unless this qiē was originally arranged, they did it on purpose.

But whether it was intentional or not, it didn't have much to do with her anyway, although she felt a little strange, but she didn't ask much, just stood in the corner by herself and looked at those flowers and plants boredly, just waiting for the so-called banquet to end, and then she could leave the palace quickly.

The banquet in this palace is really the same as what Mulan Muli said, it is very boring, and it is full of dangers, and it is not interesting at all.

She admired the famous products that seemed to her to be not much different from ordinary chrysanthemums, but she didn't know that there was someone admiring her in the distance.

Wei Chengfeng stood behind a flower bush, his eyes never taken off since he fell on her.

He hadn't seen her in a long time, or rather hadn't seen her face in a long time.

She always wore a hood when she went out some time ago, and her face was covered and blurred.

He couldn't see the look on her face in the dark, only the laughter that often came from under the hood proved that she was having a good time.

Happy......

Wei Chengfeng smiled bitterly.

That girl was never happy when she stayed with her, and she kept a straight face all day long. After being with Shen Nanzhu, she laughed loudly, and it seemed that any little thing could make her happy.

What's there to be happy about? Shen Nanzhu is so boring, she can get along with him!

He snorted lightly in his heart, and subconsciously exerted force under his hands.

"Two less!"

A man about his age patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I've never heard of you having a habit of destroying flowers with spicy hands before." ”

Wei Chengfeng noticed that a chrysanthemum had been kneaded in his hands, the petals were broken to the ground, and the flower juice was sticky in his hands.

He glanced at his hand with disgust, and then wiped it on the man he was talking to.

The man hid with a sigh, but his shirt was rubbed on after all, and he couldn't help frowning, and said in a low voice: "Ershao, can you not mess around!" What kind of occasion is it today, my clothes are like this, I don't know, I think I deliberately want to lose face in front of the queen! ”

To deliberately lose face is to look down on Princess Rong'an, and to look down on Princess Rong'an is to slap the queen's face and the face of the royal family.

Wei Chengfeng snorted: "What? Are you really going to be a colt? ”

"What nonsense, you!"

The man glanced around, and his voice was lowered: "How many of you are here today really have such thoughts?" To put it bluntly, it's not all because it's hard to shirk, so come over and have a good time. ”
