The people who were saved on the streets of Suzaku did not take Song Shuwan to heart.

The next day, the Xinguo Mansion suddenly sent a post, inviting Song Shuwan and Pei Huan to go to the family banquet together.

As soon as Song Shuwan saw it, she knew that she was uneasy and kind again, so she thought about it and told Pei Huan about the post.

"I've been busy lately, so I don't have time to go."

Song Shuwan raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and her scrutinizing gaze swept over Pei Huan: "Should the prince of the world, what are you going to do dangerously?" ”

Pei Huan's movements paused slightly, feeling the undisguised gaze, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Why do you say that?" ”

Song Shuwan laughed: "If it is not dangerous, the prince will not interfere, but the ugly words are ahead, if the prince is seriously injured, ......"

She didn't finish her words, but the rest of the meaning, Pei Huan was clear, and said in a light tone: "Don't worry, I won't joke about my own situation." ”

Song Shuwan looked at him deeply: "The prince had better do what he says." ”

Pei Huan: "......"

It's just that the previous problem did lie with him, so Bento didn't hear it.

Thinking about it, Pei Huan closed his eyes.

Two days later, Song Shuwan took Baicao and Flying Kite to the Xinguo Mansion, and Zhong Rou came to the door to greet her for the first time: "My sister rarely returns home, why didn't the prince come?" ”

Song Shuwan glanced at her, ignoring the eyes of the other guests around her, and said in a calm tone: "He has been busy lately, so he can't find time, and today's Xinguo Mansion is quite lively." ”

When she mentioned the Xinguo Mansion, the smile on Zhong Rou's face disappeared for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

"Today, the Xinguo Mansion invites nobles from all provinces in Beijing, it is lively, sister, please come in, my father and my mother are still waiting for you."

Song Shuwan's footsteps paused slightly, shouldn't there be a calculation for today's banquet?

"What is my sister looking at me like this?" Zhong Rou frowned and asked, a little stunned by Song Shuwan's gaze.

Song Shuwan smiled: "It's nothing, I just think that my sister today is different from usual." ”

Leaving the words, Song Shuwan left without waiting for Zhong Rou to respond, and it didn't take long to see Duke Xinguo and Duchess Xinguo, both of whom were full of smiles.

While talking with the surrounding guests, Duchess Xinguo suddenly saw Song Shuwan and waved at her with a chuckle.

Seeing this, Song Shuwan walked over, and as soon as she stood still, she held her hand.

Duchess Xinguo's tone was full of enthusiasm: "It's back, look at your appearance, you've been a lot plumper recently, you have always had an unappetizing appetite in the Xinguo Mansion, and now look, the meal in the Hou Mansion is still to your liking." ”

The ladies around listened and looked at Song Shuwan with a little doubt in their eyes, much plump, does this princess rarely go back to her parents' house?

The corners of Song Shuwan's mouth twitched slightly, and she let the Duchess of Xinguo hold her hand to show concern, and when her voice fell, she spoke slowly: "Thank you Madame for your concern, the meal in the Hou Mansion is indeed better than that in the Xinguo Mansion, there is no strange taste, oops, look at my mouth, don't you care, madam, in fact, I still miss the meal of the Xinguo Mansion, I wonder if I can let me taste it again at this banquet today?" ”

The smile on the face of the Duchess of Xinguo stiffened slightly: "What did the princess say?" How can meals on weekdays be delivered to this banquet? ”

Song Shuwan suddenly said: "Also, ordinary food can't get into the mouths of distinguished guests, madam, I understand, I will pay attention to it in the future." ”

The two of them went back and forth, looking very eager, but only they knew the hidden edge in the words.

What kind of meals in the Xinguo Mansion, those are clearly some rancid leftovers, and the so-called concern is just a falsehood that is exposed on the surface and admired by outsiders.

As the two talked, the expressions of the ladies around them gradually became strange, and the smile on the face of the Duchess of Xinguo gradually faded, and she could only maintain a superficial appearance.

Soon, she changed the subject.

"Don't talk about the past, at today's banquet, I have prepared a lot of your favorite food, you have to taste it."

Song Shuwan bowed: "Got it, madam." ”

At the banquet, Song Shuwan was pulled by the Duchess of Xinguo by her side, and a pot of warm wine was served on the table, and the Duchess of Xinguo poured her wine with her own hands.

"Wan'er, I respect you."

Song Shuwan lowered her eyes, looked at the cup handed by the Duchess of Xinguo, moved her hand down slightly, and lowered the mouth of the cup in her hand to the bottom: "What Madame said, I should respect you." ”

As he was talking, there was a sudden noise outside.

Song Shuwan didn't care, after drinking the wine in the glass, her eyes moved over, and the next moment, surprise flashed in her eyes.

Yue Hong and Xie Youxing also wrote to the Guogong Mansion.

Xie Youxing was dressed in white today, walked all the way, greeted everyone with good etiquette, and showed a little bit of a handsome boy, completely different from the high-spirited young man in the past. she

Yue Hong is in a red dress, walking beside him, but it looks a little dull.

Song Shuwan frowned slightly, and she didn't know if it was her delusion, she always felt that the relationship between Yue Hong and Xie Youxing was strange.

said that they had a bad relationship, but Yue Hong's love and shyness towards Xie Youxing were not fake, if they had a good relationship, Yue Hong looked and behaved very strangely every time she saw Xie Youxing.

Just like now, Yue Hong kept her head down and didn't say a word.

Song Shuwan was still thinking about it, Xie Youxing and Yue Hong had already greeted Xin Guogong.

Fortunately, soon, the banquet allowed the guests to move around at will, and Song Shuwan went to find Yue Hong: "Miss Yue is in a bad mood today?" ”

Yue Hong pursed her lips, and the smile on her face was a little stagnant: "No, by the way, I heard that the scenery of the Xinguo Mansion is very good, I wonder if the princess can take me to take a look?" ”

Song Shuwan would not refuse, and took Yue Hong around the garden of the Xinguo Mansion, and was about to turn around, when a maid suddenly appeared and blocked the way of the two.

"Slave and maid red medicine, I have seen the princess, Miss Yue."

Song Shuwan looked at the clothes of the servants of the Xinguo Mansion on her body, and frowned slightly: "What's the matter with you?" ”

Hongyao smiled and looked up: "The slave maid saw the two of them enjoying the flowers here, so she thought about sending a flower, princess, you see, how is this flower?" ”

She took out a red flower, the delicate color was accompanied by a rich fragrance, Song Shuwan and Yue Hong were choked by this fragrance very uncomfortable.

"Hmm, what kind of flower is this? Why is the fragrance so ......" Yue Hong covered her nose, and before she finished speaking, the whole person suddenly fell to the ground.

Song Shuwan felt strange and was about to check her situation, when suddenly her eyes went dark and she fell to the ground with a "bang".

"Miss, it's been dealt with."

Hongyao looked behind her, Zhong Rou stepped out of the shadows, she took out a paper bag from her arms and handed it over, her eyes full of malice.

"Go as you were arranged."

After a while, a maid walked into the hall in a panic: "Madam, Madame is not good, you go quickly, go to the backyard stable and see, the princess, the princess, she has an accident!" ”

Duchess Xinguo's eyes turned slightly, and she quickly got up and walked to the backyard, and the guests around her looked at each other and chose to follow.

What happened to the princess?
