Before Lord Wei and others could take a step forward, a deep female voice stopped everyone.
"Princess Changping and Lord Wei are here. Why don't you send someone to tell me?"
There was such a big commotion in Yun Qiuqin's yard, and the fight between Lord Wei and Xia Chiwan was not small either.
Naturally, it is impossible for the Duke's wife not to know that such a big thing happened in the family.
The Duke and his wife can ignore other matters and even leave it to Zhou Fengxian to handle them all.
However, it is absolutely impossible for Mrs. Guo Gongtai to leave the matter between Yun Qiuqin and Hong Zhilian to Zhou Fengxian.
No matter what happens today, she will not let Mr. Wei and Xia Chiwan take Yun Qiuqin and Hong Zhilian away.
If these two people cannot be saved today, Mrs. Guogong knows that tomorrow, not even anyone in the Duke's mansion will be able to work, let alone the emperor.
"But people are already here, so why rush to leave? Why not stay and have a light meal?"
The Duke's wife did not look at Hong Zhilian, who was beaten all over, nor at Yun Qiuqin, who was in a state of embarrassment. She just glanced at Zhou Fengxian, as if to say: If you don't succeed enough, you will fail more than you can.
Seeing the gaze of the Duke's wife, Zhou Fengxian's already depressed chest became even more stuffy.
"Why, Lord Wei and Princess Changping are not willing to give me this face?"
The Duke's wife tapped her faucet-headed cane, her face was solemn, as if she was saying don't be shameless.
The status of the Duke's wife may not be much higher than that of Xia Chiwan and Lord Wei.
But when it comes to seniority, there are not many people in the entire Great Zhou Kingdom who can be higher in seniority than the Duke and his wife.
In the great Zhou Kingdom, which governs the world with filial piety, senior people like the Duke and Mrs. Guo still have an advantage in speaking and doing things.
"How can we refuse the grand invitation from the Duke and Madam?"
Mrs. Guo Gongtai is a woman, and Xia Chiwan is also a female, so Xia Chiwan opened her mouth and took over Mrs. Guo Gongtai's words.
More importantly, Xia Chiwan knew that Lord Wei and his wife were at odds with each other.
If Lord Wei had to deal with the Duke and Madam, they would probably start shouting at each other without even saying a few words.
Lord Wei frowned when he heard Xia Chiwan's response, but still left the matter to Xia Chiwan to handle.
Lord Wei did not even open his mouth to stop Xia Chiwan. As a "minor official", Song Yunjie was naturally unable to interrupt and kept his mouth shut.
"Princess Changping is indeed very kind and considerate."
Upon hearing that Xia Chiwan agreed to stay at the Duke's residence for meals, Mrs. Guo's wife was satisfied.
The Duke's wife did not expect that after Xia Chiwan became a princess, she would be much more polite than before.
At least, Xia Chiwan now understands the four words "respect the old and love the young".
"However, right now we have something important to report to the Emperor. The Duke and Mrs. Guo Lai are the most observant of the rules, and they understand the principles of the emperor and his ministers. Once we have completed what the Emperor has ordered, we will definitely come to the Duke's Mansion.
, chat for a while."
Xia Chiwan smiled and said.
It's not impossible to invite them to dinner.
However, everything must be done first and then later.
Unless the Duke's wife dares to say that her meal is much more important than the emperor's life.
Then Xia Chiwan will definitely stay and eat this meal with Mrs. Guo Gongtai.
