Chapter 393

The maids couldn't stop it, so Xiao Mingzhu directly let people lift the curtain, but the interest was not just right.

As the county lord, she naturally doesn't need to step forward to greet those ladies who don't look down on themselves and don't look down on themselves. And Xu Chu, although her background is not prominent, she is a high-ranking official in the court, and she still has the title of the quasi-princess of Jing'an Palace, so naturally she will not pretend to be enthusiastic to entertain and laugh with others.

There are six young ladies who entered the house, all of them are dressed up, coupled with the pampered temperament since childhood, they are really all called beauties. The pretty faces are fresh and pink, or gentle and virtuous, and they are really pretty and tight.

However, their pride probably came to an abrupt end after seeing Xu Chu. In contrast, the woman sitting on Xiao Mingzhu's side and drinking tea idly, even if she does not move, she also has a sharp beauty. That kind of beauty is what these women who grew up in the greenhouse do not have, with heroic spirit and chic, which makes people envious but dare not look directly and dare not compare.

In fact, it's not that these ladies don't have knowledge, it's really that Xu Chu has experienced a lot, plus he has been a human being in two lives, so his experience is incomparable to ordinary people. What's more, because she has been in contact with corpses and cases all year round, she has already developed a cold heart, and only in front of Xiao Qinglang and Xiao Mingzhu and others, as well as colleagues in the Three Law Divisions, can she still be softer.

Moreover, she got along with Xiao Qinglang a lot, and his coercion and actions also imperceptibly affected her, making her unconsciously reveal a bit of a rare woman's bearing.

In this way, how can the thoughtful ladies present compare with her?

Today's saint is not obsessed with beauty, and he is even more scornful of the draft, so after he took the throne, he changed the rules of the draft. Nowadays, the Great Zhou Dynasty has a draft every ten years, and only officials with more than five grades can participate in the draft. During this period, there are marriageable women from official families who want to marry, and they are not restricted.

A few of them were originally at a marriageable age, thinking of finding a good family with the right family, but recently heard that the Qi Wangfu wanted to find relatives for the two sisters-in-law. Coming and going like this, aren't these people moved?

Qi Wangfu can be regarded as a famous family in the Great Zhou, except for the god of war, it is still the existence of royal blood, and it is a hereditary throne. Even though only one of the two concubines under King Qi can inherit the throne of King Qi, as long as there is royal blood flowing in his body, he is still worried about having a future?

Even if it's not good, you can get the position of the king of the county, right?

They also wanted to be directly friendly with the lord of Mingzhu County, after all, who in the world doesn't know that the most favored daughter of the royal family is the only descendant daughter in the royal family? However, the lord of Mingzhu is rarely far away from the ladies of the capital, and there is no special person who is particularly friendly, so they really can't find a suitable opportunity to intersect with him. Second, when she has free time during the day, she will run to the yamen or the three law divisions, but for them, that place is very unlucky, how can a woman go to those places to show her face? If you are discovered, you have to be embarrassed. Thirdly, the lord of Mingzhu County has always been arrogant, and he will do it if he disagrees, and poking people's faces is the true biography of King Jing'an, so no one dares to set up a bureau to get acquainted. After all, if it is done, it is fine, if it is exposed, I am afraid that I will have to leave a scheming reputation in the Qi Palace......

With such a total reason superimposed, they naturally didn't dare to act easily.

However, they can't find an opportunity from the Lord of Mingzhu, so they will naturally look for others to help match the bridge.

Anyone in the capital who has some ears and eyes knows that Princess Qi has a brother Tang Haoting who is a hussar general. In addition to his identity as a hussar general, he also saved the life of the King of Qi, so the daughter of the family, Tang Jiaoer, naturally won the high opinion of the Qi Palace.

As the cousin of the Qi Palace, she naturally accompanied the Pearl County Lord in the Qi Palace, and was raised under the princess for a year when she was six years old. In this way, it is obviously not a noble life experience, but it has also been promoted a lot because of the opportunity with the Qi Palace.

It's also a shame that Mingzhu has never been close to the ladies in the capital, otherwise I am afraid that I would be able to tear her face if I know that she is calling friends outside in the name of Miss Qi Wangfubiao.

Today, she originally didn't want to come to Fenghe Garden to touch her head, but a few new ladies from the noble family kept pouting, and the meaning of the words revealed that flattering her was just to get to know the lord of Mingzhu?

She is not stupid, she can naturally hear the meaning inside, but she is reluctant to be sought after and embraced.

After all, if she was just the daughter of a hussar general, how could she attract so many noble ladies from so many families to be so eager to have a relationship with her.

However, although she was embarrassed, she thought about it, although Xiao Mingzhu's girl was very arrogant and domineering, she was also a person who took the overall situation into account. Today's Changyue banquet is obviously to celebrate her upcoming family affairs, if the banquet is messed up, I am afraid that she will also lose face, so she should not impulsively lift her old bottom in front of others.

Besides, who doesn't know that the second prince and the fourth prince have brought the princess to the scene today, and King Jing'an also came in person, so it is estimated that the king of Qi and the princess of Qi will not allow her to play tricks on such a grand banquet.

After thinking about it like this, coupled with the constant urging of others, she really led someone to break into the Wind Lotus Garden. As for the subordinates and maids who wanted to stop them outside the courtyard, Tang Jiaoer naturally didn't pay attention to them.

She originally came triumphantly, and she was a radiant and sought after style, but as soon as she entered the door, everyone's eyes were led by Xu Chu, who did not speak. When she saw the man's face clearly, she immediately felt envy and jealousy in her heart.

Somehow, she suddenly remembered that she had seen King Jing'an treat her gently, and her jealousy naturally deepened.

Earlier, she had heard that King Jing'an had cast blue eyes on the daughter of an inspector, and seemed to have allowed the woman to enter and leave the palace at will. At that time, she observed for a long time and was sure that the rumors were true, so she was sure that it was probably King Jing'an who changed his temperament and saw the woman's good ......

That woman is just the daughter of a judge, and she can't be on the stage at all, and no matter how she says it, she can be regarded as the cousin of the Qi Palace, and she is quite valued by the princess. With such a comparison, she felt more and more that she was more suitable to be the hostess of Jing'an Palace.

At that time, her mind was full of King Jing'an's holy favor, and Jane was in the emperor's heart and powerful enough to be worshiped by the feudal officials from all over the country, so she didn't care too much about the rumors of King Jing'an's cold-blooded and cold feelings in the rumors outside. She only thought that as long as she entered the Jing'an Palace, it would be an existence above ten thousand people under one person, and the lord of Mingzhu County would be a head lower than herself.

In order to get what she wanted, she prepared for a long time, and even boldly confessed at a palace banquet. But she didn't expect that the man who was beautiful and beautiful, and Shen Yun could make her lose her soul with just one glance, glanced at her coldly, and skimmed over as if he was looking at a dead thing, not only did he not respond, but he didn't even listen to it at all.

At that time, she was not angry, and wanted to go up and entangle, but the man who listened to her coldly ordered the guards to throw her out.

was in the palace at the time, and she secretly left the banquet to tell Xiao Qinglang about her friendship, but she didn't expect to be treated coldly. However, before she could react, the guard carried her all the way to the palace gate and threw her out of the palace......

Since then, she has not been allowed to enter the palace for three consecutive palace banquets.

Fortunately, it was her own idea, and no one touched it. In addition, King Jing'an is not a selfish person, so others have no way of knowing.

After being treated coldly by Xiao Qinglang, she didn't dare to go out for many days. Then I heard a lot of ruthless rumors from others, and the rumors that King Jing'an was not close to women was probably because of the habit of Longyang, and her heart of shame and anger slowly recovered. It's just that after that incident, even if she encounters King Jing'an's frame again, she will most likely take a detour.

No matter how bad it is, after the clan relatives got the holy decree of marriage, she secretly sighed that she made a fool of people, but she didn't expect that a person as handsome and powerful as Xiao Qinglang was also inhumane.

But she really didn't expect that one day she would hear the emperor's holy decree to marry King Jing'an, and the holy decree was personally requested by King Jing'an.

If she just asked for a holy decree, she would guess in her heart that King Jing'an wanted to find someone to cover up, so that the reputation of Longyang's fetish would dissipate.

But she never expected that when she came today, she would see such a gentle King Jing'an. It's as if at that moment he was not a noble and powerful prince, but just an ordinary rich son who wanted to please his fiancée.

This contrast is so strong that when I met Xu Chu again, the jealousy and rejection in my heart couldn't be suppressed.

Tang Jiao'er was looking at Xu Chu, and Xu Chu's gaze naturally swept over her.

Because of the proximity, Xu Chu could easily see the disgust and jealousy in her eyes.

Xu Chu raised his eyebrows, looking at the woman with a gentle and soft smile on her face, but her eyes were already full of hatred, and secretly said in her heart, isn't this Xiao Qinglang's rotten peach blossom again? After all, this look is exactly the same as the look of Zhang Fu'er she met at the beginning, and she can't wait to peel her skin and cramp.

As soon as she thought of this, she couldn't help but sneer, and her eyebrows, eyes, and faces, which had been smeared with rouge, instantly came alive. A face that was very cold and sharp just now instantly dispersed a little cold, but it was a little more profound.

"What are you laughing at, how can you be so proud that you have just received the holy decree of marriage?" Tang Jiao'er couldn't help jumping to her feet when she was looked at by Xu Chu's meaningful eyes, and her barely restrained emotions burst out in an instant, and her words took on a little meanness.

Xu Chu's eyes swept over her, and he didn't answer, obviously indifferent to this brainless deliberate fault-finding.

But it was her fluttering glance that made Tang Jiao'er more and more angry in her heart, and her beautiful face turned red with anger.
