Chapter 226: What About the Prince?
As soon as these words came out, there was a feeling of embarrassment in the flower hall.
When the crown princess returned to the Weiguo Mansion, everyone realized this problem.
But in order to avoid embarrassment, everyone unanimously kept silent and did not say a word.
Xue Fangyi's face was red and white, her first thought was to escape, not wanting to answer this question, and then looked at her mother.
Mrs. Xue's brain throbbed a few times, "The prince is unwell and is recuperating, so it is not suitable to appear at such a lively banquet, so I asked Fang Yi to bring back some more gifts, and bring a message, and when I am well, I will personally come to the Weiguo Mansion to say hello to the elders." ”
This explanation is quite reasonable, after all, the crown prince is the capital of the country and the future emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there is no room for half a difference.
But Old Madam Xue didn't intend to let it go, although Xue Fangyi was also her granddaughter, and if she lost face, she would also be implicated in the Weiguo Mansion, but she didn't care.
She said, "Really? Why has the prince been sick for so long, and when he came back to the Weiguo Mansion to greet his relatives, he looked at him with a good face. ”
Mrs. Xue scolded in her heart, and patiently explained on the surface: "That day is because he is going to get married, the prince is very happy, who knows that it is about too much energy, so the second day is a little sick, the imperial doctor said that this time you must recuperate well no matter what, and you must not be tired." Today, Fangyi returned to the door, everyone was happy, it was very lively, this ...... If the prince comes, everyone can't have fun in order to take care of him, and the prince said that he will not be happy. ”
"That's right." Old Madam Xue sighed, "It's a pity that the prince didn't accompany him back to the door, which makes me feel flawed." ”
Mrs. Xue smiled awkwardly, "Mother, please take a seat, right?" Everyone is waiting to toast you and the Crown Princess. ”
"Why is your table so crowded?" Old Madam Xue waved her hand and glanced at the people at the main table, all of whom were relatives of the Sun family, deliberately laughing at the Sun family's dog slave appearance of stammering the crown princess.
Mrs. Xue's face was not very good-looking.
Old Madam Xue turned around and walked towards the empty table, a banquet like this would set up an extra table in case of emergency.
"Jinyi, Mrs. Liu, let's go sit over there."
Mrs. Xue's face was even more ugly, the old lady was the oldest in the Weiguo Mansion, and she was now in charge of the inner house, where did she sit, where was the real main table, wasn't it a slap on her and Fang Yi's face?
She originally wanted to embarrass Xue Jinyi a little, but she didn't expect that she fell into an embarrassing situation, and it was not easy to attack.
In the end, she could only hold back her anger, give Xue Fangyi a look, and motioned for her to sit with the old lady.
Xue Fangyi was unhappy, "Mother, why ......?"
"No reason, don't go yet!" Mrs. Xue scolded silently.
Xue Fangyi pursed her lips, endured her reluctance, and got up and walked towards the old lady.
Old Madam Xue noticed Xue Jinyi's eyes and didn't stop her.
The four of them sat down at the empty table, and Old Madam Xue even asked someone to remove the extra seats, "...... It's an eyesore to look at. ”
Some older people had seen the old lady's majesty when she was young, looked at each other, and some looked at Mrs. Xue sympathetically.
"Alright, let's serve." Old Madam Xue said with a smile: "Everyone eat, drink and have fun today. After the banquet, there will be the best opera troupe in Beijing to sing, please enjoy it. ”
Everyone thanked the old lady.
The maids served very delicate dishes, and the sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and everyone quickly forgot the embarrassment just now, and ate and drank and laughed to their heart's content.
However, the atmosphere at the old lady's table was a little strange.
Xue Fangyi didn't have any appetite, but she had to endure the nausea and resentment, chewing the food little by little, and those delicious things were as bitter as poison in her mouth.
Although the matter of framing the King of Chu failed, fortunately, there was a countermeasure to the failure, so she didn't need to worry about this fire burning on the head of the East Palace at all. Therefore, today she happily returned to her parents' house, firstly, to make a show for the emperor and the outside world, and secondly, to give Xue Jinyi a dismount, but why was she unlucky?
Moreover, because the affairs of the Chu Palace, all the expenses streamlined to help the poor people were used to help the poor people, which was originally going to announce the wedding of the crown prince, but it had to be postponed.
Now everyone in the capital is talking about the strange things in the Chu Palace, speculating about the murderer, how can the prince do good to talk about it?
If this matter is delayed again and again, it loses its meaning.
In this way, Queen Cai is in a bad mood, and she will inevitably be scolded more.
was bullied in the East Palace, and she couldn't enjoy herself when she returned home, she was really unlucky!
Yes, Xue Jinyi is a disaster star, so once she is implicated, she will be very unlucky!
Where can such a calamity star stay in the world, no matter how many obstacles she will encounter, she will definitely be eliminated for the sake of the world!
Xue Fangyi had just secretly made up her mind, and heard the old lady talking to her, "Fangyi, how is the prince treating you?" Didn't feel wronged, right? Although he is the crown prince, you are also a descendant of the Weiguo Mansion, if you are wronged at all, you must tell your grandmother, and your grandmother will seek justice for you. ”
When the people with pointed ears heard the old lady say this, they stretched their necks to eavesdrop.
Xue Fangyi's eyes were sour, and her throat seemed to be blocked, and she almost spit out the food in her mouth.
After the prince was punished, his body was already well after the most careful care, but no matter how beautiful and moving she dressed up, no matter how hard she tried to please him, the prince was even stingy with her eyes.
That prostitute, did you actually make the prince miss him so much?!
She inquired, Pan Niangzi's appearance couldn't compare to her at all, why was the prince indifferent to her?
As the crown princess and the second daughter of the Duke of Weiguo, she is not as good as a prostitute?
This will be preached, and her face will be trampled in the dust by the dead prostitute!
This resentment surged in Xue Fangyi's heart, and she finally couldn't help it, hurriedly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and spit it out.
The maid next to her hurriedly poured water for her.
Old Madam Xue asked with concern, "Fangyi, what's wrong with you?" ”
Everyone also understands that in just a few days, even if the crown princess is pregnant, it is not time to be happy.
Mrs. Xue hurriedly came over and explained: "Maybe I just married into the East Palace, and I have a lot to learn and do, so I'm tired, right?" Why don't you open the windows a little more and lick some ice in the house? ”
The maids and ladies hurriedly cut it.
Mrs. Xue stroked her daughter's back, asked someone to bring stools and chopsticks, and decided to accompany her daughter here.
"Really?" Old Madam Xue sighed, "There are subordinate officials in the East Palace, chamberlains and palace people, leave it to them to do it, Fangyi doesn't have to worry about everything." However, Fang Yi used to be a delicate young lady at home, and she didn't have to do anything by herself. went to the East Palace, became so industrious, and sure enough, getting married will make people grow up! ”
"......" Mrs. Xue's mother and daughter were speechless, how did this sound like teasing them?
Mrs. Xue smiled dryly: "As a wife, you naturally have to learn how to take care of your husband, not to mention that Fangyi's husband is the prince?" ”
Old Madam Xue asked curiously, "Fangyi, what have you done, tell grandmother quickly." Grandmother can also point you out. ”
Mrs. Xue was shocked, and Xue Fangyi's face became even worse.
Do what? In addition to finding a way to make the prince happy and get the prince's favor, he is planning how to frame the king of Chu, how to say this?
said that she tried everything to please the prince but to no avail, and said that she planned to frame the king of Chu but failed?
