Mrs. Meng's face looked anxious. A thought just flashed through her mind. If the princess could marry her son, it would be a great thing. "Why don't we just sit here again."
At this time, the princess had already stood up, leaning slightly sideways, not daring to raise her head in shame, "Mom, this~~~"
"It doesn't matter if you sit down or sit down." Mrs. Hou looked more and more satisfied with Meng Tianqi, "Don't stand still for Tianqi. Sit down and talk."
Meng Tianqi sat next to Mrs. Meng. He was so confident and arrogant. Opposite him was the timid princess. After all, Mrs. Prince was a married woman. He looked at Meng Tianqi openly. After seeing it, it seemed serious.
She laughed out loud, "Drink tea, drink tea," she embarrassedly tried to justify her gaffe.
Everyone picked up teacups and drank tea, and there was no sound for a while.
"I would like to pay my respects to Madam Hou, the Crown Prince, Madam Prince, and the Princess." A clear voice sounded loudly in the pavilion of Jing Jingzi. Xu Ruoshui looked up and saw that Wang Mengjiao was here!
She is dressed in a hazy silver Luo Su brocade dress, with a huge pure gold peony bracelet on her lily bun taking up most of her head, gold wire hoop earrings hanging on her ears, and a white jade bracelet on her wrist. She is dressed like this.
It was so gorgeous that it was dazzling, but none of it belonged to her. Xu Ruoshui saw it and swore that she would spit it out.
Then he glanced at Fang Liying and saw that she was proud of herself. The smile on her face seemed to say that you, a bitch, are proud of you. Let's see how you are embarrassed today.
"Who is this?" Mrs. Hou asked, pointing to the half-bent Wang Mengjiao.
Mrs. Meng cast a sharp look at Wang Mengjiao, but she still smiled and said, "This is also Tianqi's concubine."
"Oh~~~" Mrs. Hou said in a long voice, "I thought she was the serious young lady of some young master's family. Please get up and talk." Her voice was very unflattering.
Meng Tianqi was looking at Wang Mengjiao angrily, but she didn't notice it herself. When she entered the pavilion, she said, "Madam, Second Master, Mengjiao is late."
"You said you weren't feeling well, why did you come out again?" Mrs. Meng asked deliberately.
Wang Mengjiao was a little confused by the second monk, and asked, "Madam, who told me that I have always been in good health, and the second master also knew it last night."
The atmosphere suddenly cooled down. The princess stood up and said softly, "Mom, let me go out and get some fresh air."
Everyone could see that the princess was extremely unhappy, "Okay, let your sister-in-law accompany you out, and be careful," Mrs. Hou looked after her lovingly.
"In late autumn, you and Ying'er go for a walk with the princess. Take more people with you so that nothing happens." Mrs. Meng confessed, leaving aside the newly arrived Wang Mengjiao.
"Madam, please let me accompany you to serve the princess," How could Wang Mengjiao not want this opportunity to climb up the ladder?
I thought Mrs. Meng would agree, but unexpectedly, Mrs. Meng ignored Mrs. Hou's presence and scolded, "If you stay, my wife and I will still need people to take care of us."
After hearing this, Mrs. Hou smiled with an unknown smile, "My wife's arrangement is very good." She knew her daughter Mo Ruomu. She saw her daughter's shy look, but her daughter has always adhered to a principle these years, otherwise
It's not like I can't get married.
Xu Ruoshui and others followed the princess and left. She didn't know anything about what happened in the pavilion. Meng Tianqi also left without interest after they left. Mrs. Meng asked Wang Mengjiao to boil water for tea. When the water boiled, she asked her to
When pouring water, Mrs. Meng was angry with her for ruining the good atmosphere, so she moved her hands and feet when pouring water, so that the hot boiling water poured on her white and tender hands, and then the fine purple gauze teapot fell to the ground.
, the hot water porcelain pieces exploded under Wang Mengjiao’s feet.
"Ah~~~" This scream was enough for the entire Jingxuan to hear clearly.
Xu Ruoshui was accompanying Princess Shang Peonyhua. When she heard the cry, she asked Yan'er and others to go to the pavilion to investigate. When Yan'er came back, with a cunning look on her face, she whispered to Xu Ruoshui's ear what happened to Wang Mengjiao.
After hearing this, I was really relieved. This was Xu Ruoshui's first reaction after hearing this. Wang Mengjiao, not all people are as stupid as Xu Ruoshui, let you be self-righteous.
Wang Mengjiao went back in such a dejected manner, and staying here would only make her look even more ugly.
Princess Anyang was wandering around absentmindedly, not thinking about the peonies at all. This could be seen from the way Mrs. Shizi spoke to her, her eyes always looking towards the Chengwang Pavilion outside.
From time to time, a man's hearty laughter could be heard from Chengwang Pavilion, and the voice of the Marquis praising Meng Tianqi became louder and louder. The princess only felt like a little deer in her heart.
Mrs. Shizi saw her sister-in-law's thoughts and pulled her aside, "Why is Yun'er so absent-minded? You couldn't hear me several times when my sister-in-law spoke to you. Could it be that she is feeling unwell?"
The princess blushed and shook her head.
"Is there something on your mind?"
"Sister-in-law~~" the princess stamped her feet and ran away, "Don't ask, I~~~ you should let Yun'er speak."
"Okay, okay, if you don't ask, don't ask." Seeing that the prince's wife, like the two elders of the Marquis, cherishes this sister-in-law, "Yun'er, sister-in-law asks you, what do you think of Meng Tianqi?"
"What's going on?" The princess pretended to be dumbfounded, twisting her handkerchief uneasily.
"You child, you are really..." The prince's wife is already over thirty, and the princess is a daughter of the marquis in his old age, so the elder sister-in-law not only treats her as a younger sister but also treats her as her own child, "
We won’t go into detail about Meng Tianqi’s good reputation. Now that you have seen his character and temperament, what do you think?”
"Sister-in-law, how do you want Yun'er to answer," the princess said coquettishly, her face so red that she almost bled, "You know my principles, how can you break the promise you made."
"You are really stupid. My sister-in-law told you that no one has answered your couplet for so many years. If you wait any longer, all that good time will be wasted."
"But...it's not just for this reason, sister-in-law, he is already married to his wife," the princess lowered her beautiful eyes and looked quite disappointed.
"Yun'er, in my sister-in-law's opinion, my mother is very satisfied with the second young master. You know her thoughts somewhat, and she sent us all away. I'm afraid she has something to say to Mrs. Meng.
"Mrs. Shizi said with confidence, "Sister-in-law thinks that the second young lady's departure is strange, and Mrs. Meng seems to be indifferent. There is probably something fishy in it."
The princess thought carefully about the words of Mrs. Shizi, and she tore off the peony branches in the flower statue without realizing it. She knew that Xu Ruoshui came over with a smile and said, "Princess, lunch is about to start, I will accompany you to sit down."
"
The banquet at noon was naturally held in Jingxuan. Because the princess was unmarried, there was a gauze screen between the two banquet tables. Only the outlines of people could be seen, but their expressions could not be seen.
