Chapter 222: The slap in the face came too quickly
The sixth prince taunted the corners of his lips: "Don't count me in, help her?" Exempt. With that, he turned and stepped aside.
The biological mother of the sixth prince, Concubine Shugui, is prosperous, and there is the huge wealth of the Cai family behind her, even if the second prince is the son of the first queen, she can't suppress his limelight.
It is normal for the six princes to have such an attitude with the second prince on weekdays, and the two princes can bear it, but he has not seen Chu Junlan for a long time, and it is rare to show a performance, but the six princes let him not come to the stage in person.
The second prince immediately sank his face, and just as he was about to speak, he was grabbed by the arm of the fifth prince.
"What difficulties does Miss Chu encounter, might as well tell me one or two?" The fifth prince smiled, obviously hoping that Chu Junlan would open his mouth to divert the topic just now.
Chu Junlan sighed secretly, he was afraid that if he said it, it would make the Six Princes and the Nine Princes unhappy.
But the second prince looked at it with a blank eye, and Chu Junlan was difficult to ride a tiger, so he only objectively stated the matter of Fang Cai.
The faces of the second prince, the fifth prince, and the ninth prince all became solemn.
They all grew up in the palace, and when they have seen more of this kind of thing, they will be more sensitive, and they will understand the key when they hear it.
The Nine Emperor Princes said in surprise: "My mother went to greet Mrs. Hanmei early this morning, and she was not in the palace at all." Miss Chu, you must have been calculated? ”
Chu Junlan was dumbfounded: "This is in the palace......"
"In the palace, there will be no shortage of such a yin." The second prince sighed.
Chu Junlan was also helpless: "At that time, the chamberlain came to Concubine Shu's palace, and in front of so many people, she said that Concubine Ying wanted to see me, I thought to myself, maybe Concubine Ying wanted to find me to see a doctor, so I didn't think much about it, including my grandmother and my mother, I also couldn't imagine that anyone would do such a thing in the palace." ”
"So what are you going to do now?" The Nine Emperors were a little worried, "You came out like this, I'm afraid that your family will have already gone to see Shugui Concubine Niangniang, if Niangniang asks about you, but you are not there, how can it be good?" ”
The Nine Emperors turned around to look at the Six Princes not far away: "Sixth Brother, why don't you go back with Miss Chu and explain to Concubine Shugui?" ”
"Me?" The sixth prince pointed to the tip of his nose and looked surprised: "The ninth brother is more and more able to joke." ”
"Don't! Sixth brother! The Nine Emperors smiled and leaned around the Sixth Prince, "Anyway, that's a delicate little woman, you can't be so hard-hearted, and it's just a matter of one sentence to you." ”
"If it was someone else, the lord would also help for the sake of the flower and moon appearance that was born. She? Not! The sixth prince said impatiently, "Can you go or not?" We still have to go to see Mrs. Hanmei, I'm afraid we'll delay for so long, right? ”
The second prince frowned.
Chu Junlan just didn't hear the meanness of the six princes, and said with a smile: "Your Highnesses, please take care of yourself, don't delay the time." I'll go back to Concubine Shu first. ”
Since she already knew that she had been tricked, she was not invited by someone from Concubine Ying's palace at all, so there was no point in her waiting.
It's just that Chu Junlan felt that Concubine Shu might not be willing to believe her explanation. may not be willing to go out of his way to find the little chamberlain in the palace.
Anyway, no matter what, it is already certain to offend Concubine Shu.
Chu Junlan sighed lightly, saluted several princes, and planned to go back.
As soon as he turned around, he was grabbed by the arm of the second prince.
Chu Junlan turned his head abruptly and looked at the second prince suspiciously: "Second Highness? ”
There was light in the eyes of the second emperor, and he said in a low voice: "I have a way, you can listen to it." ”
※
Yong'an Palace.
The Xu family and the others were gossiping with Concubine Shugui, when an attendant quickly walked in the door and saluted: "Back to Niangniang, the family members of Lord Li and Master Wei have been waiting for a long time. ”
The Duchess of Maoguo, the Duchess of Dingguo, the Marquis of An Lu, and the Madame Ge all stood up with interest and saluted, "Niangniang, the courtiers have retired first." ”
Concubine Shu waved her hand, stood up with the hand of the palace maid, helped her sideburns, and said with a smile: "Don't worry." Today, Mrs. Hanmei returns to the palace. The main palace is about to go to ask for peace, so go with the main palace. ”
When everyone heard this, they were very happy.
Mrs. Hanmei is the emperor's little aunt, is the aunt of Concubine Shu, and has such a relationship with the first emperor, her status is very transcendent, it is difficult to see Mrs. Hanmei on weekdays, and now Concubine Shugui is willing to take them to visit, which is to be a favor.
Mrs. Ge smiled and said, "Thank you, Niangniang." ”
"Thank you, mother." And the rest of them saluted.
Concubine Shu smiled and asked the maid to serve and put on the firefox cloak and put on the sleeping rabbit with Dongzhu embedded in the same color.
When Concubine Shu travels, she naturally has a shoulder to ride, but the rest of the courtiers and their families can only walk later.
Mrs. Ge and Ge Shuyu walked beside Concubine Shugui's shoulder, smiling and flattering.
The three families of Mao Guogong, Dingguo Gong and An Luhou all followed behind the team.
I listened to Concubine Shugui's regretful words: "The girl of the Ge family is clever and handsome, I like it when I see it in this palace, and I will definitely like it when I come to Mrs. Hanmei to see you." ”
Being so praised is a great honor for Ge Shuyu, who has not yet come out of the cabinet. Especially at the moment when the Ge family is bent on cutting off Hu Gongding's family affairs, compared to Chu Junlan, who just angered Concubine Shugui, Ge Shuyu has a better chance of winning.
As long as today's events in the palace reach the ears of King Gongding, the palace of Gongding will reconsider the marriage of the prince. After all, no one wants their new daughter-in-law to be a favorite concubine like Concubine Shugui.
Concubine Shu and Ge Shuyu chatted very happily, and then said with a sigh: "It's a pity, the young lady of the Chu family is not here, otherwise wouldn't it be more lively?" ”
Duchess Maoguo, the eldest aunt and the Xu family all looked very solemn, originally observing the words and looking at Concubine Shu, it seemed that they had forgotten about this stubble, but they didn't expect her to mention this matter again.
It seems that Concubine Shu wants to take advantage of this matter.
Xu was anxious, his breathing became short, his whole body was hot, and his forehead was sweating. When she raised her eyes, Ge Shuyu and Mrs. Ge looked relaxed and smiling, Xu was even more suspicious, she saw the eye contact between Mrs. Ge and Ge Shuyu several times, with a look of schadenfreude, which made it difficult for her not to suspect that today's events had something to do with them.
She couldn't figure out how the mother and daughter of the Ge family persuaded Concubine Ying.
The group soon came to a courtyard called Hanmei Pavilion in the cross-courtyard near the Heart Cultivation Palace.
There is a diligent communication from the waiter, and it will not be long before I respectfully invite Concubine Shu in.
Concubine Shugui tilted her chin slightly, walked in front with a smile, and led a group of people into the main room, and before she passed the screen, she heard the laughter of Mrs. Hanmei.
"Good, good, that's good."
Concubine Shu came before she arrived: "Auntie, what's so happy?" Say it and tell Rou'er to listen to it too. ”
Seeing Concubine Shu's casual attitude, everyone understood more and more in their hearts that the relationship between Concubine Shu and Mrs. Hanmei was only close.
Following behind Concubine Shu and bypassing the screen, I saw a room of people standing or sitting, Mrs. Hanmei was sitting sideways on the first place, and beside her, there was an unexpected person.
"Sister Lan?" Xu exclaimed.
Ge Shuyu and Mrs. Ge's smiles froze at the same time.
Why is Chu Junlan here?
