Chapter 720 has to be contrarian
Mrs. Lu was frustrated again and again, and even the faint smile was very reluctant, "This is not good, you are the princess of Chu, and the girl who has no name or distinction is not famous now, so she should come to salute you." ”
"No need, I'll go see her." Xue Jinyi's tone was slightly accentuated.
"Princess Chu!" Mrs. Lu raised her tone and kept giving her eyes to the ladies around her.
The ladies of the Lu family hurriedly agreed.
"Princess Chu, this can't be done!"
"Etiquette can't be abolished, it should be a smile to greet you."
"Yes, yes, just now I asked Princess Chu to enter the Lu family through the back door, which is already a big sin for concubines, and we must not lose any more courtesy."
“……”
Everyone said a word, and they were noisy like a duck farm.
Xue Jinyi smiled and watched them talk, the tea cup in her hand shook and shook, and she never took a sip.
After the ladies of the Lu family said for a while, someone saw Princess Chu's expression and felt that something was not right, so they hurriedly coughed a few times and signaled everyone to shut up quickly.
The flower hall was instantly quiet, and the ladies of the Lu family peeked at Xue Jinyi in a bit of a panic.
Sometimes the calmer you appear to be, the more angry you are.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Xue Jinyi put the teacup on the small table on the side, and asked with a smile: "Miss Lu is a child of the Lu family, and now she is pregnant with the crown prince's heir, which is the emperor's first grandson, and the gold is extremely expensive. ”
The ladies of the Lu family choked, and Mrs. Lu opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but her mouth was stunned and didn't say half a word.
Xue Jinyi shook her head and sighed, as if she was feeling sad and sympathetic for Lu Yunrong's situation.
"No, it's not ......" Mrs. Lu glanced at Gonggong Ning in a panic, swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva with great difficulty, and finally knew how to explain, "The concubines are just too afraid of losing their manners and making the palace laugh......"
Gonggong Ning smiled: "The palace won't laugh at Miss Lu, Mrs. Lu don't worry." ”
When the ladies of the Lu family heard this sharp voice, and then took a closer look at the clothes, they found that the person who was following Princess Chu and did not raise their eyes was from the palace, and they were busy acting in fear.
"Okay," Xue Jinyi waved her hand, the purpose of her coming to the Lu family was to find out if Lu Yunrong was pregnant, she had wasted enough tongues at the back door before, and now that the Lu family bowed her head, she didn't want to waste time, "Don't worry about this kind of trivial matter, this is some gifts from the Chu Palace's palace to Miss Lu, congratulations to her." ”
Qinglan took out a gift list and handed it to Mrs. Lu, and the other Lu family ladies stretched their necks curiously, wanting to see what good things were on the gift list.
After Mrs. Lu looked at a few things, a smile flashed in her eyes, and she looked at the boxes piled up at the door, "The princess is so generous, the concubine has thanked the princess on behalf of the princess." ”
"No need to be polite," Xue Jinyi said: "In the future, if Miss Lu enters the East Palace, we can be regarded as relatives, so there is no need to be so polite." ”
"Eh, eh." Mrs. Lu agreed, and glanced at the box again.
Xue Jinyi glanced at her eyes and smiled slightly.
She specially instructed the guards that the placement of the box was a bit particular, so that the Lu family could not see the seal on the box.
When they wanted to do something, they saw the seal of the royal gift, and they had a headache.
Xue Jinyi coughed lightly, "Mrs. Lu, will you take me to see Miss Lu?" ”
"Yes, Princess Chu, please." Before leaving, Mrs. Lu glanced at her younger siblings, and then led Xue Jinyi to visit Lu Yunrong with a smile on her face.
Sure enough, gold and silver treasures are the most pleasant things.
Xue Jinyi still had a soft smile, and she looked gentle and elegant, and followed Mrs. Lu through the verandah and through several doors unhurriedly.
She looked at the guards around her.
The guard nodded slightly, signaling her to reassure.
After walking for about a moment, the group finally came to the gate of the courtyard where Lu Yunrong lived.
The courtyard door was closed, and there were two strong mothers-in-law who guarded the gate on the left and right, even if they came over, they were watching with great eyesight.
Mrs. Lu said: "Open the door quickly, Princess Chu has come to visit Miss." ”
The two mothers-in-law hurriedly saluted, and then pushed open the courtyard door.
Xue Jinyi looked in, the courtyard where Lu Yunrong lived was full of flowers and plants, the breeze made the dark fragrance float, and the light gauze curtain gently fluttering under the corridor made the yard like a fairyland, which was the most common arrangement in everyone's ladies.
A few maids stood under the porch and listened to the instructions, and another housekeeper's mother was carefully decocting the medicine beside her, and the posture seemed to be a rare treasure of the decoction that was "gurgling" in the pot.
It can be seen from this that the Lu family values Lu Yunrong now.
Lu Yunrong is not only the hope of the rise of the Lu family, but also the foundation for the prince and the Cai family to continue to be arrogant.
Xue Jinyi didn't have a little displeasure or boredom in her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Look, Mrs. Lu still loves her daughter very much." Therefore, there are some etiquettes now, and if you can avoid it, you should quickly waive it, so as not to delay and affect Miss Lu's recuperation. ”
"Yes, Princess Chu said yes." Mrs. Lu laughed dryly, feeling that her face was a little painful.
Obviously at the back door, I only slapped it so much, why does it hurt so much?
Everyone entered the courtyard, Xue Jinyi didn't take a few steps, stopped in the middle of the courtyard, and said to Mrs. Lu, "What is Miss Lu doing now?" ”
"I just found out I'm pregnant, so let's stay in bed." Mrs. Lu replied.
"Okay." Xue Jinyi instructed: "You go into the house first, and tell Miss Lu that you don't have to get up, you don't need those false courtesies." ”
"This ......" Mrs. Lu subconsciously wanted to refute, but the faint pain on her face made her close her mouth with interest, owe Xue Jinyi, and ran into the house with a smoke.
Xue Jinyi took advantage of this effort to look around like a view.
In the courtyard, nothing out of the ordinary.
However, Xue Jinyi is well aware of what is meant by "calm before the storm".
The Cai family will not want to miss this opportunity, and in order to enter the palace as soon as possible, the Lu family wants to publicize this matter through her, and secondly, they want to obediently be a dog who listens to Cai's words.
When Mrs. Lu came out of the wing, Xue Jinyi looked down at the ground.
Between the flowers and plants, a winding path led to the wing, and she leaned against the hem of her skirt to cover it, and gently kicked the pebbles on the ground without revealing her movements.
Firmly embedded in the mud, it doesn't seem to be easy to loosen.
"Princess Chu, I've kept you waiting, please come in!" Mrs. Lu said loudly.
Xue Jinyi squinted slightly, looking at the soles of her feet that came all the way quickly, and there seemed to be nothing unusual.
She looked at Mrs. Lu, who came to her face and turned better, nodded, and then continued to walk forward with slow steps, every step she took, she felt the pebbles paved on the path with the soles of her shoes.
Somewhat slippery, but really not loose.
Xue Jinyi did not let down her guard because of this, and when she slowly came to the bottom of the steps, she finally felt that something was wrong!
