556. Chapter 556 The Osmanthus Feast in the Princess' Mansion Surprised [02]
The only person not included in the invitation was Princess Yan.
And Princess Yan didn't want to come to her house as a guest at all, so as not to look at each other and hate each other.
However, Shen Mingzhu didn't want to go to the eldest princess's mansion. After all, something could easily happen on such an occasion. Moreover, she would have to see the Queen and even Xiao Che. She felt that she didn't want to see Xiao Che now.
Xiao Che is not among her immediate enemies yet. She wants to keep him and let him grow slowly, and then deal with him when he is able to confront her.
Now - he's still a little green!
Just when Shen Mingzhu was thinking about how to politely refuse, she received a decree from the Queen. Aunt Lai personally came to deliver the decree, telling her to attend the Osmanthus Banquet.
Seeing that there was no way to escape, Shen Mingzhu had no choice but to accept the invitation. She had to go to the eldest princess's mansion with the old lady, Madam Liu, and Shen Yunluo.
Fortunately, only legitimate daughters are eligible in the eldest princess's house, and concubines like Shen Mingxuan are not eligible.
In this way, she also saves a lot of troubles, so as not to meet some concubines who obviously have no substance but are good enough. She will lose her value by arguing with them. She is not as familiar with them and annoyed by them. Sometimes she is like a naughty child. It will make people want to slap it flat with the palm of their hand!
In order to go to the eldest princess's mansion, the mansion had to make new clothes for the ladies. But now that Mrs. Liu is in charge, the mansion is already stretched thin and there is not much money left to make luxurious clothes. Mrs. Liu has no choice but to take out the old ones and renovate them. Just trying to make ends meet.
Shen Mingzhu didn't have to wrong herself. She took out her mother's ivory pearl headband and matched it with her new skirt. It was perfect.
Her skirt was designed by herself, and then she found an embroiderer and a seamstress to make it. It is low-key and luxurious, and would not be called luxurious or shabby, but if you are a discerning person, You will know that her dress is extremely luxurious.
But when you go to the eldest princess's mansion, you can't go empty-handed. You must bring gifts. Shen Mingzhu doesn't expect Mrs. Liu. She asked someone to bring her letters and prepare a batch of gifts to give to the eldest princess when the time comes.
In the blink of an eye, the official day came. Early in the morning, Shen Can had someone pack up the carriage and check it carefully to avoid breaking the axle or frightening the horse. He also asked the leading nurse to bring more people on the road. Protect the ladies and ladies from encountering reckless men or people with ulterior motives who want to destroy the reputation of the ladies.
Everything was ready, and the large group of people set off in a mighty manner. The people on the road looked curiously, and even the families of the second and third grade officials were jealous. After all, the eldest princess's mansion rarely held banquets.
But they were not qualified to participate, which showed that their family had no face.
In the important place of the capital, at the feet of the emperor, even the first-rank officials and princes were numerous in number.
The carriages rumbled and the autumn wind blew, all looking at the magnificent eldest princess' mansion.
The eldest princess is dressed in red, and the eldest grandson's consort is dressed in white. One of them is gentle and handsome, while the other is heroic and gorgeous. They are truly a perfect pair.
However, some people say that the yin in the eldest princess's palace is strong and the yang is weak. The prince-in-law is gentle and the princess is brave. It is conceivable that the talented heirs are not prosperous.
However, Shen Mingzhu knew that the eldest princess was actually damaged when she gave birth to Sun Xian that year, and she would no longer be able to raise her again.
