When the two arrived at Zhen's Mansion, the guests had already arrived.

Entertaining guests outside is Mrs. Zhen's eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, Shen.

Seeing Xie Zhan and Mingxiu coming together, the Shen family hurriedly stepped forward, "I've seen the prince, I've seen the county lord of Showa." ”

"No need to be polite." Xie Zhan only gave Shen a look, then turned around, thoughtfully helped Mingxiu down, and helped her tidy up her hair that was not messy.

Where the two of them didn't pay attention, Shen's pupils shrank, and he was terrified, Xie Zhan used to call her a sister-in-law, but now she is so rusty......

Maybe the ancestor was wrong to be a matchmaker for Mingxiu.

Don't talk about the Shen family, Mrs. Zhen also attaches great importance to Xie Zhan's arrival when she learns of it.

The age is there, but it is not enough to go out to greet it in person.

But when Xie Zhan arrived in front of the court, he saw that Mrs. Zhen had personally taken a seat.

"The prince and the county lord are here, please take a seat."

Although the title is an honorific title, Mrs. Zhen's attitude towards the two is as close as ever, and others only think that Mrs. Zhen knows how to advance and retreat.

But Xie Zhan knew in his heart that the old lady was testing his attitude.

After all, it was a birthday banquet, and he didn't mean to make trouble with Zhen Fufei, so it was still a face for the old lady.

"You are the birthday star today, where is the reason why we sit at the top? Please take a seat. ”

Old Madam Zhen observed Xie Zhan's face, and saw that his attitude was as usual, so she put her mind at ease this time.

"Then the prince and the county lord must not be restrained, just as if they were at home."

Sensing Xie Zhan's gaze, Mingxiu smiled at the right time: "Old lady, we are very familiar here, don't blame us for being presumptuous." ”

Mingxiu still regarded herself as a junior in front of Mrs. Zhen as before, which made Mrs. Zhen feel relieved.

didn't hold Mingxiu too close to talking to Xie Zhan himself, and after a few words of greeting, he asked them to find a place to rest.

It's not that Old Madam Zhen doesn't want to take this opportunity to eliminate the wrong matchmaker, but after all, Jin'er didn't invite Mingxiu and Xie Zhan alone, there are still many ladies and ladies in the house, even if Xie Zhan and Mingxiu are important, it's not good to just take care of them, and the other guests ignore them.

Xie Zhan whispered a few words to Mingxiu and the egret behind her, then turned his head to the men's seat, and as soon as he went, he was surrounded by the stars and the moon.

And Mingxiu, although she is not as pompous as Xie Zhan, because her marriage to Xie Zhan is almost decided, she surprisingly doesn't care about her background.

Not to mention that all the young ladies have good intentions towards her and come to her, at least they will not rush to trouble her.

A woman who is destined to become the princess regent, no matter how much she looks down on her heart, she will not offend rashly.

After all, Xie Zhan still values Mingxiu very much.

Mingxiu saw the change in the attitude of these people, but he didn't get angry or anything.

It is normal for her to be inflammatory, to avoid it, she can't ask everyone to befriend her when she is down, this time they came up, Mingxiu just thought that there was no mistake in etiquette.

It's impossible to have any real fellowship.

Shu Wenqi, as the only one on the field who had said a few words to Mingxiu, stepped forward with a smile at this time, holding tea in his hand, "I offended the county lord a lot before, and I asked the county lord not to take it to heart and worry about me." ”

The words put her posture very low, coupled with the tea in her hand, Mingxiu had to conspiracy theories.

She was silent, took the tea and put it aside, "Miss Shu is polite." ”

Obviously, the unwelcome attitude was a little cold for a while.

Shu Wenqi didn't expect Mingxiu to be so faceless, she lowered her head slightly, and her big round eyes were covered with a layer of mist, "Is the county lord unwilling to forgive Wenqi?" Wen Qi is just a discord between Su Ri and Mi Niang, so he is a little rude to the county lord, not intentionally, and asks the county lord for forgiveness. ”

She was so gesturing that she wanted to kneel.

The ladies who were standing a little farther away didn't know what was going on here, but when they saw Shu Wenqi about to kneel, they subconsciously felt that Mingxiu was bullying people, and they secretly felt sorry for Shu Wenqi in their hearts.

Even the young ladies who clearly heard the conversation between the two couldn't help but have some complaints about Mingxiu at this time.

No matter what the reason, Mingxiu is so aggressive, which is indeed a bit against the world's requirements for women to be gentle and virtuous.

Mingxiu looked at her quietly, "Miss Shu, originally the county lord wanted to save some face for you, but if you are in such a hurry, if you don't explain it well, it will make people feel that the county lord is domineering, and the unwarranted reputation is not easy to deserve." ”

For some reason, Shu Wenqi was suddenly shocked, and looked at Mingxiu with trepidation, not sure what she would say.

At least she thinks she's not doing anything wrong.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Mingxiu felt tired for a while, "Mi Niang is now a serious royal princess, and her maiden name is also what you can call as a courtier?" The contradiction between the royal family and the courtiers, is it the fault of the royal family? ”

When Shu Wenqi talked about Zhen Miniang, she became more and more pitiful, didn't it make people feel that Zhen Miniang was rude?

Mingxiu only felt cold, Zhen Miniang sacrificed her life to marry for the peace of the country, but these people who enjoyed peace still didn't have the slightest intention to protect her.

thought that Mingxiu was going to defend herself first, but Shu Wenqi couldn't help but be stunned when she heard her talk about Zhen Miniang, and opened her mouth to explain.

Who doesn't know how Zhen Miniang's princess position came about?

If she hadn't wanted to get married, the Zhen family would have come up with a princess? Dream on!

Ignoring Shu Wenqi's reaction, Mingxiu said again: "Why didn't Miss Shu dare to say why she offended me?" You rushed to the prince for three days, but the prince didn't look at you at all, and even your father had to come to apologize, Miss Shu, this is unfilial. ”

As soon as Mingxiu said this, everyone's faces changed again and again, and the eyes that looked at Shu Wenqi were not as sympathetic as before.

If it really seems like what Mingxiu said, it is very natural that she hates Shu Wenqi.

Who likes to be a woman who thinks about her future husband during the day?

Women have a natural aversion and defensiveness towards those who intervene in other people's marriages.

Mingxiu's expression was faint, as if she didn't know what she was talking about.

The atmosphere condensed for a while, and Shu Wenqi thought about trying to defend herself.

But Mingxiu's words fell, and everyone looked at her as if they were looking at something dirty.

Shu Wenqi's coming and going to the Regent's Mansion is not a secret, and the matter of Lord Shu going with gifts the day before yesterday is not a secret.

"Don't talk about these unhappy people, for the birthday banquet today, my ancestor took out the good tea that he asked people to bring from his hometown, can the county lord taste it?"

The little girl Mingxiu who came out to play the round was a little familiar, and it seemed that she came out of the side branch of the Zhen family.

Mingxiu raised her eyebrows, was she unintentional or did she help Shu Wenqi?

She couldn't make up her mind, but Fang Cai Mingxiu had already put Shu Wenqi's face, this time it was the Zhen family, and she was not good at being aggressive.

Picking up the tea, he dipped his lips for a moment, and then wiped it off with a handkerchief.

Seeing this, a hint of pride flashed in Shu Wenqi's eyes, and when she saw that the girls were lively again, she left the main hall without a trace.

After a while, the egret leaned into Mingxiu's ear and whispered: "Just now, the prince has sent a message, and the prince wants to see you." ”

I just came with Xie Zhan, why do you want to meet so soon?

Maybe it's something important.

Mingxiu didn't doubt him, got up and followed the egret forward.

Suddenly, I felt a little brain heat, and my eyelids jumped suddenly.

She subconsciously felt that something was wrong, and when she stopped, "Who is the one who came to spread the words of the prince?" ”

Bai Lu was stunned, "Some eyes are born, they should be the descendants of Zhen Mansion." ”

Although Egret has followed Mingxiu to the Zhen family many times, the people here can't say that they all know each other.

Occasionally, it is normal to have a few eyes.

What's more, no one should dare to falsely spread Xie Zhan's words.

The heat of his body intensified, and Mingxiu realized what had happened to him.

His face changed again and again, and he caught a glimpse of a small pond not far away.

Too late to think too much.

She untied the purse she was carrying and stuffed it into the white egret's hand, "Go ahead to find the prince, let him come to save me, you must see the prince himself, no one can pass the word!" ”

The egret still didn't know why, but Mingxiu's solemn face couldn't be faked, she didn't dare to ask more, took the purse and quickly ran to the men's seat in the front hall.

After sending off the egret, Mingxiu did not hesitate to take off his coat and jump into the pond.

"Poof!"

"The county lord has fallen overboard! Come on! ”

It was not the egret who called for help, but the girl who was born at first sight.

When the egret heard this, he glanced back at Mingxiu and ran forward faster.

She didn't know what was going on, but she couldn't afford to be overlooked!

Mingxiu scolded the girl who was calling for help more than once, but she didn't seem to hear it.

Or if they hear it, they will be regarded as if they have not heard it.
