She weighed it again and again before she quietly asked someone to cook the decanting soup, and she pretended to run away and came back to reply.

"This, Her Royal Highness the princess forgives the sin, the imperial dining room has not started the fire yet, it is at this time to defend the title to attract attention, the slave maid has been arranged, our small kitchen will make a few soups, and send them in a while."

"Huh?" Xu Ruru was stunned when she heard this, suddenly raised her chin, shrugged her nose and sniffed a few times, and couldn't help laughing. "You just like to talk nonsense, if you don't start the fire, how can this princess smell the fragrance of the food, you hooves, are you really too lazy to even run this part of the road now?"

"Ah, Her Royal Highness the princess misunderstood, it was Concubine Xian's side, saying that Her Royal Highness was recuperating and wanted to eat the pot, so she asked someone to send the vegetables over."

Luo Ying was taken aback, but she reacted quickly the next moment, Xu Ruru's facial features are also surprisingly sensitive, although not many people know, but as a maid who serves closely, how could she not understand.

It's just that although she appeased Xu Ruru and didn't continue to make noise, this will be a bad situation on Su Jiao's side.

When Su Jiao heard this, she immediately hung her hand on the table angrily, gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth.

"-Have you ever eaten hot pot?! It was really interesting. ”

When the words landed, Luo Ying hurriedly pursed her mouth but didn't dare to say anything more, Mu Rong and Mu Hibiscus could only look at her from behind, waiting for her emotions to calm down before they could open their mouths to comfort.

And Su Jiao rolled her eyes, and after thinking about it for a while, as if she was drunk and not drunk, she stood up and moved to Xu Ruru's position and hugged her.

"Old girl, don't believe that, we can only endure it if there are many sad things, why should we be submissive, even if our ability is limited and we can't resist anything, then we are not happy, and we can't make them happy."

"That's what I mean, then you're enlightened now," Xu Ruru closed her eyes, her face was flushed, and she laughed innocently, she disliked Su Jiao like that on weekdays, but now that she is reconciled, she will not be intimate like this.

Luo Ying and Mu Hibiscus Mu Rong were both surprised, but it was a pity that the decanting soup had not had time to be made at this time, otherwise they really wanted to know whether her reconciliation with Su Jiao was sincere or drunk.

"And what are you going to do?" Xu Ruru slowed down, patted his chest so as not to spit it out, and asked casually, which happened to hit his heart.

"Secret," Su Jiao mysteriously stretched out a finger, put it in front of her lips and gently shushed, and then quickly leaned over to Xu Ruru's ear and whispered a few words.

"That's ......"

After a whisper, Su Jiao didn't say a few words, so they didn't hear what Su Jiao and Xu Ruru discussed behind their backs, but thinking that it was something they said when they were drunk, they probably didn't remember it, so they didn't pay much attention to it.

However, the next day, the invitation from Xu Ruru was sent away among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Because Xu Ruru is going to go out to make peace for the agreement between Daze and the Wa Kingdom in the near future, and the emperor's body is now recovering, so the queen will still be willing to give face to take a look at her invitation.

As for Concubine Xian, she originally wanted to take advantage of Xiao Huai'an's departure to win over several ministers' wives during this time, but she didn't expect that before she could implement it, everyone ran to Xu Ruru's side.

Xu Ruru has the queen in charge, even if some people really have plans to go along with Concubine Xian, they don't dare to show it so blatantly, so even if Concubine Xian didn't receive the post, she had to be cheeky to go to the banquet together today.

This banquet, in everyone's hearts, regarded it as a practice meeting for Xu Ruru and his relatives, but because of Xu Ruru's presence, no one was embarrassed to explain it directly.

Anyway, it's just the simplest afternoon tea party, even if it gives everyone a chance to get together and talk.

Xu Ruru had a cold face, even if her bedroom was so lively for the first time, and the people who came and went crowded her courtyard, she couldn't show half a happy smile.

"Thank you for the invitation of Her Royal Highness the princess today, it is really flattering to the courtiers and others, such a small gift, please don't dislike it."

All the official wives heard that the queen personally sat for Xu Ruru today, so everyone prepared rich gifts, and piled up the two gifts on the table like a hill, but they didn't want Xu Ruru to have such an expression, which made them unhappy in their hearts.

However, they also heard that after Xu Ruru was arranged to make peace, her temperament has been unstable, so they didn't pay much attention to it, especially Zhou Hongyan, the only daughter of the Duke's Mansion in Pingcheng.

She has always been pretentious, and naturally she is happy to see Xu Ruru, who is the princess, end up at the mercy of others.

But did she ever think about what would happen to her and her parents if her own life talisman and Danshu iron coupon were returned to His Majesty so easily?

Right now, she was just standing near Xu Ruru with jealousy and ridicule, looking at her with such an indifferent expression, and the group of people who came to Xu Ruru's banquet below were also regarded as jokes.

Luo Ying next to Xu Ruru, but he didn't want these people to hold a grudge against Xu Ruru because of this, so he had to smile all over his face. Running back and forth between the ladies.

"Today, Her Royal Highness the princess is unwell, so that the ladies are smiling, and please ask the lady to come here with the slave maid, Her Royal Highness the princess ordered the slave maid early in the morning, and prepared tea and snacks for the ranks, the queen will come over in a while, and please wait for a while."

If it weren't for the fact that the queen would also come, who would rarely come to the banquet of Xu Ruru, the eldest princess of Daze, who is not worthy of the name.

Everyone looked at each other and saluted politely in front of Xu Ruru, but when they turned around, many people couldn't help but roll their eyes.

Xu Ruru didn't care what these people thought of her, she snorted lightly from her nose, and was about to turn her head back to the hall to rest, but at this moment, Zhou Hongyan, who had been waiting next to her for a long time, suddenly sneered.

"Her Royal Highness the princess is really different from what it used to be, and she is about to become the crown princess of our country with her relatives, no wonder her temper is so big, she didn't even see her past friends here?"

Hearing this, even if she didn't have to turn her head to look, Xu Ruru could imagine what kind of disgusting expression Zhou Hongyan had on her face.

"Who are you, and why does this princess take you seriously."

At the same time, as Luo Ying said, the queen mother has been staying in the Heart Cultivation Palace to take care of the emperor during this time, and she does feel a little tired, so she wants to take advantage of Xu Ruru's banquet to relax, and by the way, take a look at the atmosphere in the court.

However, when she walked to the corridor in front of Xu Ruru's palace, she met on a narrow road and met the virtuous concubine who was facing her.

"Virtuous concubine? What are you here to do? The queen was stunned for a moment, stood still, and calmly arranged her handkerchief, but she thought in her heart that only she could know anything.

Concubine Xian walked a few steps in front of her before stopping, on weekdays she likes to be arrogant and domineering, willing to be blind, and walk away in front of the queen, this time she held back for the first time, but made a gesture with the queen instead.

"Her Royal Highness the princess of Daze is about to get married, her banquet, how can the concubines not come, the queen will invite her first."

The queen was stunned for her to see this action, lowered her eyes, and didn't know what she meant, but for the sake of being the queen, she calmly raised her chest and raised her head, one step ahead of her, and then Concubine Xian slowed down and obediently followed the queen's side.

"What you said is true, but shouldn't you be very proud now, Your Majesty is standing and recuperating again, and no one sees it here, how you have been in this palace in the past few days, this palace can remember, why are you so coy today."

"The queen is too worried, the concubine is really scared, how is the concubine's mother's family, the concubine really doesn't know, the concubine is sincere, just for Daze to consider for His Majesty, as for some false names, the concubine really doesn't dare to bear it."

Concubine Xian lowered her head and spoke half true and half false, although she Xu Gupan was puzzled by her brother's movement so violently, she was actually a little happy, after all, who would not be happy to be able to ascend to the position above the ten thousand people first?

It's just that when she says these words now, no one will believe it, and the queen glanced at her lightly, and still recognized in her heart that she came uninvited this time, just like herself, to test the minds of those ministers.

And Xu Ruru's bedroom.

In addition, the invited ladies were all invited by Luo Ying to sit and drink tea in the small garden in the backyard, and Su Jiao and Zhang Yuge, who were their own people, were sitting in the main hall.

Su Jiao was curious for a while, so she pulled Zhang Yuge and the two of them to go out to have a look, and they happened to see Xu Ruru and Zhou Hongyan who were half drunk.

Zhou Hongyan stared at a pair of eyes, on weekdays, Xu Ruru was not happy to argue with her for the sake of decency, she thought that Xu Ruru was afraid of herself, and she didn't know how to restrain herself at this time, so she simply walked up with her skirt and stood at the same height as Xu Ruru.

What do you mean by that? I'm also the only daughter of the Duke's Palace, my mother is an old friend of the queen's mother, even if it's the princess of the queen's mother, when you see me, you're just a sister, you're just the daughter of a good concubine, and you're about to get married, do you think you can still be as proud as before? ”

For Zhou Hongyan's inexplicable self-confidence, Xu Ruru has already had enough of it over the years, she laughed contemptuously, although she knew that no matter how she corrected Zhou Hongyan, it was useless, but her words were in her heart, and Xu Ruru was really unhappy.
