Shen Fengxu has not seen Jiang Xiuyue since Jiang Xianyue entered the palace. However, after Shen Yulou came back from the palace, he was worried every day. Although there was nothing strange on the surface, Shen Fengxu always felt a little strange. Something is wrong.
So after the family dinner that day, Shen Fengxu stopped Shen Yulou.
"Sister." Chen Fengxu called softly.
The cold wind outside the corridor was biting, and Shen Yulou's clothes were blown up by the wind. She stood still for a moment, turned to look at Shen Fengxu, and said, "It's such a cold day, why don't Sixth Sister go back and warm up?" ?I stayed outside for a long time, so I might catch the wind and cold."
"The eldest sister cares about Feng Xu, and Feng Xu is naturally grateful." Shen Fengxu smiled slightly and asked, "It seems that the eldest sister invited cousin Xiang Yue to the palace that day? Since the eldest sister is back from the palace, why didn't Feng Xu I saw cousin Xianyue."
That day, Shen Yulou seemed to have come back extraordinarily late, when the sky was dark, and he had just returned from outside the house, but he had never mentioned it to the outside world. But the more this happened, the more doubts he made in Shen Fengxu's heart.
"Sixth sister must have remembered it wrong." Shen Yulou turned his head and looked outside the corridor, as if looking into the vast night, "I have never invited Xiu Yue to enter the palace, and I have no orders not to enter. Palace, I am just the companion of the Ninth Princess. Where can I get such power? Even if Xianyue really enters the palace, I will not be the one to invite her."
"On that day, Cousin Xiangyue came to the house specially to look for you." Shen Fengxu looked at Shen Yulou intently, "It was you who caught me. Please ask Cousin Xiangyue to come. Cousin Xiangyue has always trusted you. I didn't have any doubts, so I went directly to the palace, but there has been no news about cousin Xiangyue for three days in a row."
Shen Yulou suddenly turned back to look at Shen Fengxu, with a ferocious coldness in her eyes. Her tone was extremely cold: "Only Qing Zhi is my personal maid, what the other maids say has nothing to do with me? What's more, In addition to Liu Mei, has anyone seen it? Liu Mei, please don’t talk nonsense!"
The implication is that Shen Fengxu's testimony is naturally useless.
"Sister." Shen Fengxu turned his head and looked at Shen Yulou, "I'm not the only one, cousin Xiangyue also knows it very well."
"She won't say it. Even if she does, no one will believe it." Shen Yulou took a deep breath, "Besides, I have never invited her."
With the fourth prince Ming Yan here, this matter will naturally develop naturally and has nothing to do with Shen Yulou. Even if Jiang Xiuyue really dishonored the matter and spilled the beans, who can Jiang Xiuyue's testimony be? Will you believe it?
There have been countless people who have climbed on dragons and attached to phoenixes since ancient times, not to mention that Ming Yan was there to deal with Shen Yulou's aftermath, leaving no evidence at all. Even if Jiang Xiuyue identified Shen Yulou, Shen Yulou could still escape.
What's more...
Shen Yulou believed that Jiang Xianyue would not identify Shen Yulou.
Jiang Xianyue will definitely not bear to let Shen Yulou's reputation be ruined.
"Yeah..." Shen Fengxu sighed softly. Although she didn't know what happened, it was not a good thing for Shen Yulou to invite Jiang Xianyue into the palace for no reason.
At this moment, Shen Baitang came over from the side and said, "Feng Xu, I just heard about something."
As she was walking over, she suddenly saw Shen Yulou beside her, and her eyes suddenly turned cold.
Chen Fengxu smiled softly and said, "Second sister, what did you hear?"
Shen Baitang withdrew his gaze towards Shen Yulou and said softly: "Jiang Xianyue has entered the palace."
Shen Fengxu didn't understand the meaning of the word "enter the palace" at first. He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Shen Baitang with a hint of probing: "Enter the palace?"
Shen Baitang continued slowly: "Three days ago, Jiang Xianyue was honored by the emperor in the Caiyue Palace and was granted the title of Beauty. She is now one of the concubines."
Chen Fengxu looked shocked: "What did you say? Jiang Xianyue...?"
Jiang Xiuyue only grew hair last year. Although she has reached the marriageable age, how old is Ming Jin this year? At Ming Jin's age, being Jiang Xiuyue's father is more than enough, even if Jiang Xiuyue can win Ming Jin's favor , but how many years are there left for Ming Jin? When Ming Jin dies, what’s the point of guarding the ancient Buddha with green lantern every day? But if you don’t have Ming Jin’s favor, then your days will be like years, and the people in the palace will , she flatters the superior and suppresses the inferior, and follows the trend. With Jiang Xiangyue’s temperament, how can she defeat those scheming concubines in the palace?
Shen Baitang nodded slightly.
When she first heard about this, she had the same reaction as Shen Fengxu.
But Shen Yulou, who was beside the two of them, turned his head and said calmly: "Xiu Yue is lucky enough to be favored by the emperor, so he will naturally bring glory to Yi'anbo Mansion. I think this is also Xiu Yue's own wish."
Shen Fengxu vaguely felt that there was something wrong with Shen Yulou's invitation to Jiang Xianyue to go to the palace, but she never expected that it would be like this? Shen Yulou actually let Jiang Xiuyue become Ming Jin's concubine?
Why?!
Shen Yulou had no reason, so why did he let Jiang Xianyue enter the palace as a concubine? Shen Yulou knew that there was no benefit to him. When Jiang Xianyue entered the palace, Shen Yulou lost a big arm. Shen Yulou had been treating Jiang Xianyue all these years. As his own shield, how could he be willing to let Jiang Xianyue enter the palace?
Shen Fengxu turned to look at Shen Yulou: "Eldest sister is very close to cousin Xiangyue every day, but she doesn't care about cousin Xiangyue at all?"
But Shen Yulou did not look at Shen Fengxu, but looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and said in a very calm tone: "Now that Jiang Xiuyue is a concubine in the harem, she is not allowed to leave the palace easily, and you guys Without the imperial edict and unable to enter the palace, there will naturally be no chance to see Jiang Xiuyue in the future. Instead of caring about Jiang Xiuyue, it is better to care about yourself."
After saying that, Shen Yulou walked towards the outside of the corridor.
For some reason, when she heard the news, she should have felt relieved and lucky. After all, as long as Ming Jin brought Jiang Xiuyue into the harem during the non-draft period, she would no longer bother Shen Yulou. Otherwise, the DPRK would The public officials will naturally criticize Ming Jin with words and writings. Although Ming Jin is not a wise king, he is by no means a fatuous and foolish king.
But her heart was inexplicably filled with worry.
When she thought about Jiang Xianyue's situation in the palace now.
Jiang Xianyue's entry into the palace in such an unexpected and inexplicable way will definitely attract the attention of the concubines in the palace, and she may become the target of public criticism. By then, she may not even be able to save her life.
Seeing Shen Yulou leaving, Chen Fengxu's eyes fell on Shen Yulou's back, as if he was drifting into the boundless night with Shen Yulou.
"Feng Xu." Shen Baitang called softly.
Only then did Shen Fengxu come back to his senses and looked at Shen Baitang: "Second sister, let's go back."
"good."
…
Everyone knows that Jiang Xianyue entered the palace.
In the Yi'an Bo Mansion, Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Li, could no longer sit still. Jiang Xianyue was her beloved daughter. Naturally, she was reluctant to let her daughter enter the palace and become one of the many concubines of Ming Jin. She washed her face with tears every day.
Yi Anbo cried.
But Yi Anbo said impatiently: "I also want to meet Xiang Yue, but now Xiu Yue is already a concubine in the palace. She and I are monarchs and ministers, and we are separated by the palace gate. How can it be so easy?
Go see it!"
His ears were almost calloused.
"Why is Xiang Yue still in the palace? She clearly went to Dongningbo's house that day, so why did she go to the palace at night?" Mrs. Li cried, "Only Jiang is the only one in Yi'anbo's house.
A girl named Xianyue is still a little girl, how can she enter the palace?"
"But she is the emperor's wife now! What's the use of saying all this?!" Yi Anbo said solemnly. He only felt that Mrs. Li had long hair and short knowledge. When he first heard that Jiang Xiuyue had entered the palace, he was angry and confused.
I was anxious, but then I thought about it, and this seemed to be a good thing. If Jiang Xianyue was lucky enough to be favored by the emperor, wouldn't the Yi'anbo Mansion also rise with the tide? The reason why the Hu family is prominent is because there is Queen Hu.
Although Jiang Xiuyue is not as beautiful as Shen Yulou, she is still very beautiful. Empress Hu has lost her beauty with old age. Jiang Xiuyue can definitely do what Empress Hu can do.
"So what do you mean by the master, let Xiang Yue become the concubine in the palace?" Mrs. Li had stopped crying and just looked at Yi Anbo blankly, feeling that her heart was cold.
"Otherwise? What else can you do? Are you going to let Xiu Yue come back?" Yi Anbo's eyes were deep and cold, "Even if Xiu Yue comes back, she is no longer a virgin and has no value."
But Jiang Xianyue is also your daughter!
Li moved her lips, but did not say anything. Thousands of words finally turned into a sigh.
There is already endless coldness in my heart.
After a moment's pause, Mrs. Li spoke again: "Xiangyue will not enter the palace for no reason. Even if Xiangyue wants to enter the palace, she will not be able to enter without an edict."
Jiang Xianyue's unprovoked appearance in the palace must have been framed by someone else.
Yi Anbo's face darkened: "I know."
"That day, Xiangyue went to Dongningbo's Mansion first." Li gritted her teeth and recalled everyone in Dongningbo's Mansion in her mind, including the eldest lady, the second lady, Shen Yulou, Shen Baitang, Shen
Feng Xu...
It seems that everyone is suspected.
"None of these are important." Yi Anbo said without hesitation, "I am afraid that when Xiu Yue comes to the palace, she still doesn't understand anything. You pick a few sensible people and send them to Xiu Yue to teach her what to do.
Do."
Although he and Mrs. Li couldn't enter the palace, they could still send some maids in for Jiang Xianyue.
Originally, when a beautiful girl entered the palace, she was always surrounded by maids. Although Jiang Xianyue was a bit special, she still had everything she needed.
Mrs. Li nodded silently.
"The winter banquet will be here in a few days. You should take care of these things earlier. Otherwise, someone might make some gossip at the winter banquet." Yi Anbo gave a cold command, then stood up and opened the door.
And go.
Rumors?
Such a thing has happened to her, how could there be no rumors? No matter how well she takes care of it, she can't suppress such a thing. But Li doesn't care about this anymore, she only hopes that Jiang Xianyue
Don't suffer too much grievance.
…
On the day of the winter banquet, Shen Fengxu got up early in the morning and went to Princess Shunning's house with Shen Baitang.
The eldest princess Shunning is the only eldest sister of the current emperor Ming Jin. She was married as early as the Jian'an period. However, in the third year of Yongping, her consort died of illness. As a noble princess, she naturally did not have to die for her consort, but she could After the death of the consort, the eldest princess Shun Ning had no intention of getting married, so she lived alone in the princess's mansion. She rarely participated in various banquets on weekdays, but every winter, she held a winter banquet at her princess's mansion.
Princess Shunning's mansion is located in the east of Beijing. After the carriage stopped in front of the princess's mansion, a maid led Shen Fengxu and Shen Baitang into the princess's mansion.
The weather today is quite sunny. Although it is still as cold as ever, there is no heavy snow and the air is fresh and pleasant.
But because it was winter, the banquet was not held in the open-air flower hall, but in the hall. There was a stove to warm the hall. As soon as Fang stepped in, the coldness on his body was driven away, and he just felt warm and pleasant.
After entering the hall, people from various families naturally came.
Li Qingru and Yan Ting were naturally also in the main hall. When they saw Shen Fengxu, they walked over together and started chatting with Shen Fengxu.
Not long after, a maid said: "Princess Shun Ning has arrived——"
Everyone turned around and looked around when they heard the sound. Princess Shun Ning walked in slowly from outside the main hall. Her steps were light and her posture was dignified. Although her clothes were light and plain, she was very luxurious and graceful. She was surrounded by her maids. come over.
Shen Fengxu looked at Princess Shunning, a dark emotion flashed in her eyes.
In fact, Princess Shun Ning's consort did not die of illness, but died in the hands of Princess Shun Ning. Everyone said that Princess Shun Ning had a plain personality and never cared about worldly affairs. After her consort died of illness, she lived alone in the princess's house, except every year. Apart from holding a banquet in winter, it has almost no sense of presence in Beijing.
But in the 19th year of Yongping, that is, seven years later, Princess Shunning committed suicide after her reputation was ruined.
Nothing, but that year there were assassins causing trouble in the capital. Ming Jin was furious and ordered a search. However, after sealing off the entire capital, the whereabouts of the assassins were not found. In anger, Ming Jin ordered Qing Lin Wei searched house to house, not even sparing nobles from aristocratic families.
Naturally, it also includes Princess Shunning's Mansion.
Princess Shun Ning had no intention of treason, but the assassin was indeed in Princess Shun Ning's house.
Because... that is Princess Shun Ning's male favorite.
Since the death of the consort, the princess has kept a male favorite in the palace. Princess Shunning has been having fun with her male favorite every day. The reason why she has never married is also because of this male favorite, but Princess Shunning does not Unexpectedly, the male favorite had treacherous thoughts, and she was determined to protect her male favorite. But Ming Jin was so angry that she naturally did not let go of any place in the capital, not to mention Princess Shunning's mansion, or even the Empress Dowager Lian. In the palace, Ming Jin also ordered people to search every inch.
After searching the mansion of Princess Shunning, the matter could no longer be concealed. The fact that Princess Shunning kept a male favorite in the mansion was also made public. The world began to speculate about the cause of the death of the consort. Various speculations include: Coming like a tide, coupled with all kinds of strange looks from others, Princess Shunning could not bear the criticism from others, so at the end of the 19th year of Yongping, it was also a snowy day, and she committed suicide by drinking poison.
This incident was widely circulated at the time and everyone knew about it. Shen Fengxu had naturally heard of it. Now that he saw the eldest princess Shunning again, he suddenly felt like he was in another world.
It's not an illusion anymore.
Princess Shunning held the wine cup and raised her glass with a smile. Everyone naturally raised their glasses in response, not daring to show any disrespect.
The banquet was held as usual.
When the wine was half full, a girl suddenly said loudly: "I heard that the girl from Yulou has unparalleled dancing skills, why don't you perform one or two in front of the public?"
Shen Fengxu looked over and saw that the person speaking was Hu Xianzhi, so he smiled slightly.
At this moment, Hu Xianzhi was naturally very jealous of Shen Yulou. She wanted to be the companion of the Ninth Princess, and she had made full preparations. She thought that the strategy she wrote that day was excellent, even for Shen Fengxu. People who had always been at odds with her all recognized her outstanding literary talent, but the person who won the first place was Shen Yulou.
Hu Xianzhi was naturally unconvinced.
Not only was she unconvinced, but she was also extremely jealous. If it weren't for Shen Yulou, she would have been the one who could enter the palace and become the ninth princess's companion.
Shen Yulou frowned slightly.
Someone on the side agreed: "Yes, during such a festive season, if you don't see the Yulou girl's water sleeve dance, no matter how good the delicacies are, it will be hard to swallow."
Shen Yulou couldn't help but feel a little hesitant. It was good to be in the limelight on such an occasion, but it was Hu Xianzhi who suggested it, which made people feel uneasy. Although she was not familiar with Hu Xianzhi, she also vaguely knew Hu Xianzhi. It's not easy to deal with.
Then Shen Yulou said: "Miss Xian is so complimentary. Among all the girls present, which one is better than Yulou? How can Yulou bear the word "unparalleled"? Naturally, I don't dare to show my embarrassment."
Hu Huizhi frowned, looked at Hu Xianzhi, and said, "If you want to perform, why don't you just go up and lift the Jade Tower?"
Although Hu Xianzhi is her sister, Hu Huizhi's relationship with Hu Xianzhi is average. Compared to Shen Yulou, she and Hu Xianzhi are more like strangers, and her words are even more sarcastic and ruthless.
Hu Xianzhi choked, but she only looked at Hu Huizhi deeply and said: "This is not my idea alone. If you don't believe me, just ask others if they all want to see the Yulou girl perform?"
Hu Xianzhi said, glanced at Shen Fengxu, and asked: "Miss Fengxu, do you think so?"
At this time, Shen Fengxu naturally would not object, so he smiled slightly: "That's natural, the eldest sister's dancing skills are the best in Beijing. When it comes to dancing, there may be people in Beijing who can compare with eldest sister, but if we say Shuixiu Liu Yun Wu, there is only one eldest sister in Beijing."
Shen Fengxu's words made all the noble ladies look askance.
What does this sentence mean? Don’t you take others seriously?
But Shen Fengxu just looked at Shen Yulou, his eyes full of admiration and said: "Sister is not only outstanding in the water-sleeved flowing cloud dance, but also in the Lingbo dance, the neon dress dance, the folding fan dance... she is also top-notch. Everyone present is afraid that she will even Not even 10 or 20% of what my eldest sister is."
When Shen Fengxu said these words, his eyes fell completely on Shen Yulou, with an expression of admiration and envy, as if he was praising Shen Yulou from the bottom of his heart. But as Shen Fengxu's words fell, everyone All eyes fell on Shen Yulou unconsciously.
The male guests present were fine, but the ladies from aristocratic families present all showed dissatisfaction.
They are more or less noble girls from aristocratic families who have learned the six arts since childhood. How come they can't even compare to Shen Yulou? In the past, they often heard others mention Shen Yulou, but now they don't even stop to attend a winter banquet.
Many noble girls from aristocratic families present were born in the shadow of Shen Yulou. Since childhood, they have listened to their parents and brothers praising Shen Yulou of Dongning Bo Mansion. When they grow up, when they grow up, whenever the people they meet mention Shen Yulou, We all have to say that Shen Yulou has an unparalleled appearance, talent and beauty.
Anyone who listens will have calluses on their ears.
Shen Yulou knew that something was wrong, so he stood up and said: "The younger sister in the family is just talking nonsense, Yulou is just a little trick, how can she be compared with all the elders and sisters?"
"My eldest sister was also chosen to be the Ninth Princess's companion." Shen Fengxu added with a smile.
At the male guests' table, Ming Shu shook his head and laughed.
He just felt that Shen Fengxu had gone too far. Pushing Shen Yulou to the highest position on such an occasion was just to watch Shen Yulou fall down heavily. He didn't know what this Yulou girl had done. Shen Fengxu wanted to take such excessive revenge for something that made people angry.
If it were not in front of others, Shen Yulou would definitely turn around and give Shen Fengxu a hard look, but at this moment, there was no inappropriate look on his face, he just said: "Yulou's dancing skills are unsightly, there is really no wind." Xu said it so beautifully."
The eldest lady also said: "Thank you all for your love for Yulou. It's just that Yulou has only been studying for a few years. It's really difficult to get into the elegant hall. How can you taint the eyes of Princess Shunning?"
Princess Shunning frowned slightly and said, "It's okay if Miss Yulou doesn't want to perform. It's not that there are no dancers in the house, so there's no need to embarrass Miss Yulou."
She also didn't want to see Shen Yulou being made difficult by others.
Princess Shun Ning had spoken, and everyone could only stop their activities.
Afterwards, a dancer came to the hall and danced a song in the hall. Although it was nothing extraordinary, it could be regarded as an average performance.
Seeing that the plan failed to succeed, Hu Xianzhi's eyes showed disappointment, but she was not discouraged and was still ready to wait for the opportunity.
There was no chance to see Shen Yulou in the past. Now that she was in the palace, she didn't even go to White Deer Academy. Taking action at the winter banquet was the best opportunity!
The stove in the main hall was warm, and the chatter and laughter of many people could be heard in his ears. Shen Fengxu felt that it was too stuffy, so he said something to Shen Baitang, stood up and walked out.
Stepping out of the main hall, Shen Fengxu felt a little more comfortable as the cold and biting wind and snow hit his face.
Dansha supported Shen Fengxu and said, "My maid will help you go to the guest room."
"No need, just take a walk in the yard." Shen Fengxu shook his head gently.
"It's so cold outside, why don't you go to the guest room to warm yourself up?" Dansha whispered, "My servant is worried that the girl will catch the cold."
Shen Fengxu smiled and said: "Why are you so delicate? Let's go. The weather is just right today and it's not that cold."
Dansha had no choice but to follow Shen Fengxu and walk casually along the path.
Shen Fengxu was not the only one to walk out of the hall. The boys and girls from various families either didn't like the atmosphere in the hall or were too drunk. In short, Shen Fengxu also saw a lot of people on the road.
When Shen Fengxu walked to Wangxue Pavilion, she saw Gu Xiangning standing alone in the pavilion, and there was not even a maidservant around her. She was the only one standing here alone.
Chen Fengxu walked up.
"Miss Xiang Ning." She called softly.
Hearing this, Gu Xiangning turned to look at Chen Fengxu, with a calm expression on his face, and said, "Why aren't you in the hall?"
"Isn't it the same with Miss Xiang Ning?"
Gu Xiangning tilted his head and whispered: "I didn't want to come."
Gu Xiangning really didn't want to come. It was just because Gu Cifu and Mrs. Gu forced her to bring Gu Xiangning to attend Princess Shunning's winter banquet. She came as a last resort. She didn't attend the winter banquet last year. It would be rude to come, so Mrs. Gu naturally ignored her daughter's wishes and brought Gu Xiangning.
"Now that we're all here, Miss Xiang Ning shouldn't be here with a sad face. It only lasts for a day. It will be fine when we go back in the evening." Shen Fengxu said with a smile.
Gu Xiangning sighed softly.
Gu Xiangning didn't seem to be as distant and cold as others said, but he just never took the initiative to talk to others. After going back and forth, naturally no one had a close relationship with Gu Xiangning.
Shen Fengxu knew Gu Xiangning's future direction in life, so he felt a bit regretful in his heart.
"By the way." Shen Fengxu suddenly asked, "I heard that Miss Xiang Ning's brother is engaged to the eldest daughter of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, but is it true?"
Gu Xiangning's elder brother's name is Gu Jingzhong. He is also a talented young man from the capital. He is the eldest son of Gu Cifu. Just a few months ago, he was engaged to Zhao Jinrong, the eldest daughter of the Pingyuan Hou Mansion.
One year later, it will be the day that Gu Jingzhong gets married.
In terms of family background, Gu Jingzhong originally wanted to marry Zhao Jinrong, the eldest daughter of the Hou family. However, Zhao Jinrong was from the Hou family and was the most noble eldest daughter in the family. However, these two got engaged. It is indeed a great anecdote in Beijing.
"Yes..." Gu Xiangning said calmly, "My brother wanted to marry Miss Jinrong. My parents were originally worried that Pingyuan Houfu would refuse, but they never thought that the eldest lady of Pingyuan Houfu would come to marry him personally. "
Although the expression on his face was light, his tone could not help but reveal some doubts. Not to mention Gu Xiangning, even Gu Jingzhong himself did not expect that Mrs. Pingyuan Hou not only agreed to the marriage, but also came to the house to propose marriage in person.
However, while Gu Jingzhong was happy, both Gu Cifu and Mrs. Gu were a little worried. If something went wrong, there must be a monster. If Zhao Jinrong was really the legitimate daughter of Pingyuan Hou Mansion, how could the people of Pingyuan Hou Mansion let Zhao Jinrong marry her? To Gu Jingzhong?
Although Gu Jingzhong is a young talent in Beijing, the Gu family does not have a title. In the future, Gu Jingzhong can only rely on his own efforts instead of inheriting the title.
Could it be that Zhao Jinrong had some flaws? That's why Mrs. Pingyuan married Zhao Jinrong into the Gu family?
But he agreed on a whim at that time. He couldn't break off the engagement without any reason. Even if Gu Cifu wanted to break off the engagement, he had to ask Gu Jingzhong what he meant.
"Miss Xiang Ning, don't worry." Shen Fengxu sighed softly and said, "Mrs. Pingyuan Hou just wants to choose a good marriage for Miss Jinrong."
Although Gu Jingzhong's background was average, Gu Jingzhong and Zhao Jinrong loved each other. If they could be together, it would be better than Zhao Jinrong marrying an unknown man and seeing each other every day.
and……
Mrs. Pingyuanhou's health is deteriorating and she is now on the verge of death. Most of the rights in the house are now taken care of by Mrs. Side.
After Mrs. Pingyuan Hou died of illness, no matter whether Pingyuan Hou renewed his marriage or straightened up his wife, naturally no one would care about the two legitimate daughters she left behind, Zhao Jinrong and Zhao Jinyu.
Therefore, Mrs. Pingyuan Hou must arrange the marriages of her daughters before she passes away, otherwise, they will become a tool for marriage in the future.
Even if Mrs. Pingyuan Hou died, she would not want to see such a thing happen.
Gu Xiangning nodded slightly.
While the two were talking, a maid suddenly walked over quickly and said, "Girl, go back quickly. Madam is already looking for you."
The person who came was the maid next to Gu Xiangning. Gu Xiangning looked embarrassed, glanced at Shen Fengxu, and said to the maid: "You go back first and tell your mother that I am with the sixth girl of the Shen family, so she doesn't have to worry. .”
"Miss..." the maid called again, "Madam has been asking the maid to look for you."
Chen Fengxu then said softly: "You'd better go back. Mrs. Gu must have something to ask you."
Gu Xiangning nodded and said, "Then I'll leave first."
Seeing Gu Xiangning leave, Shen Fengxu stood in the snow-watching pavilion, and Cinsha also said: "Girl, let's almost go back. We have stayed outside for a long enough time."
"It's too early to go back now." Shen Fengxu smiled and said, "If we go back now, I'm afraid the fun hasn't started yet."
"A good show?" Dansha couldn't help but asked doubtfully.
"Yes, it's a good show..." Chen Fengxu breathed out lightly and said.
Hu Xian is narrow-minded and will definitely not let Shen Yulou go. Previously, she only had a few quarrels with Hu Xianzhi, and Hu Xianzhi could always hold grudges. Now Shen Yulou has snatched Hu Xianzhi's companionship. Hu Xianzhi will definitely not give up.
Naturally, the position of accompanying reader was not taken away by Shen Yulou, but in Hu Xianzhi's view, it was no different from what Shen Yulou had taken away.
Shen Fengxu was really curious as to what methods Hu Xianzhi would use to deal with Shen Yulou.
When the two of them were chatting in the snow-watching pavilion, suddenly a lady in rich clothes came over from the side. Chen Fengxu was leaning casually on the balcony of the pavilion. When he saw the visitor, he straightened up a little.
She bowed: "Feng Xu has met Princess Ning."
The person who came was none other than Princess Ning.
With a light and gentle smile on her face, Princess Ning looked at Shen Fengxu and said, "I'm just going out for a walk, there's no need to be rigid."
There was no way she could act informally in front of Princess Ning. Although Shen Fengxu knew that Princess Ning had a peaceful personality, she was not familiar with Princess Ning, so naturally she couldn't be presumptuous.
Therefore, Shen Fengxu said very humbly and respectfully: "The princess has a noble status, and Fengxu naturally does not dare to surpass her."
For some reason, Princess Ning originally had only a slight interest in Shen Fengxu, but the more she looked at her, the more she felt that Shen Fengxu was also a well-educated and sensible lady, so the smile on her face became softer.
