If Qin Jiaoyue hadn't held her tightly, Peng Jiaren would have jumped up and made trouble with those women who were talking nonsense.
"That's nonsense. Which of their eyes are watching me clinging to the princess? Ah?"
Qin Jiaoyue said calmly: "Sister, don't be angry. They say what they say and we do ours, right?"
Thinking of what they had finally agreed upon, Peng Jia calmed down a little, but she was still very angry. She took the maid's handkerchief and put it under the table, tearing it violently to vent her anger.
The palace banquet came to an end quickly, and Peng Jiaren did not have a suitable opportunity to come on stage.
Even though Mrs. Shangshu shamelessly went to find the final piano player and wanted Peng Jiaren to play the piano with her.
But before the piano master could reply, he was summoned by the maid next to the Queen Mother.
When the pianist came back, he had a straight face: "Today's piece has been rehearsed by five pianists for more than a month. Let alone one more person, even if Princess Meng'an comes in, it will disrupt what I have arranged.
Qu, I hope Madam Shangshu will not embarrass us!"
So Mrs. Shangshu had no choice but to return to her seat in dejection, pretending that nothing had happened, and then mother and daughter tore the veil together under the table.
When the palace banquet came to an end and everyone was staggering and gathering at the palace gate, they suddenly heard a female voice saying sharply: "Oh, where is my lady's coral bracelet? Miss, are you wearing the bracelet?"
Almost at the same time, Shang Fengyi's voice also sounded: "Who stole my girl's red sandalwood fan?"
Most of the girls who received rewards at the banquet resisted itching to play with the rewards they received, but on the way home after leaving the palace, most of them couldn't help but pull them out and play with them on the carriage.
So it is most normal to look for something at this time.
But it’s also the most abnormal.#@$&
Who would a normal thief choose to steal something at this time?
Soon, the maids and women surrounding the carriage on both sides were in a mess.
"Look carefully, how could such a big thing fall without even knowing it?"
"My coral bracelet is just that, but your lady's is a fan. Wouldn't it make a sound if the fan is so long and big and falls to the ground?"
"Also, who is free to take my girl's fan out of the box?"%&(&
Shang Fengyi's voice stood out in the chaos: "Who else are the maids and wives that I have just contacted? Is it true that I have brought so many guards in vain?"
"Didn't you listen and see that something was wrong? What? The maid kept it? The maid kept it and you didn't bother to look at it?"
"Why are you crying? Did this girl hit you or scold you? It's just a fan. If it hadn't been given by the Queen Mother...forget it, look for it quickly!"
After this, the ladies who had previously been interested in the Shanghou Mansion all stopped thinking about it.
"It's better not to think about it..."
"My bastard is probably not suitable to join the Shang Hou Mansion!"
"Although we are a small family, but..."
Shang Fengyi stood with his arms akimbo at the candlelit palace entrance and scanned the surrounding carriages and sedan chairs.
Suddenly, it wasn't just someone who shouted: "Ah, how could my girl's bracelet fall under this carriage? It's obviously so far away!"
Qin Jiaoxi, who had just walked out of the palace gate and heard the noise here, raised his eyebrows.
For no other reason than that, the maid who spoke was standing beside the carriage not far in front of her.
That's the Prince Regent's carriage.
Axiu's face changed slightly, and she opened the curtain of her carriage in front of the maid.
Under the illumination of the surrounding lanterns, the red sandalwood fan was lying in Qin Jiaoxi's carriage, with a faint stream of light flowing across the fan body.
