The county lord of Mingzhu turned pale, so angry that he didn't know what to say. Shen Nanzhi took out the matter of praying for blessings as a pretense, she naturally couldn't continue to be so aggressive, otherwise she would be said to have no idea how to devote herself to worshipping the Buddha...... She can't afford to make a big fuss.

Stunned, she finally shook her hand arrogantly and walked to the back angrily.

"You can speak well, but you don't know how to resist!" The eighth princess on the side looked at Shen Nanzhi in disbelief and snickering, "If you take some thought out to deal with the pearl county lord early, where do you need this princess to come out?" ”

Shen Nanzhi chuckled, if she was outside, her background would definitely not be bad, but now in the face of many clans, she has become the one with the worst background, and she can endure it on weekdays, and she never wants to go toe-to-toe with others, let alone on such an occasion? If it weren't for the pearl county lord despising herself, she wouldn't want to do this, so as not to let the pearl county lord cause any more trouble.

People gradually poured in, all of them were well-dressed and elegant upright young men and flower-like girls, Shen Nanzhi was dazzled, and by the way, he also felt that thanks to the eighth princess, she had transferred her and Meng Xian's positions to her side, otherwise wouldn't she have tasted getting up and pretending to have a "deep sisterhood" with these people she didn't know?

However, Shen Nanzhi didn't know any of these people, she saw Wang Qianqian who walked in with a shelf, wearing a blue dress and a long tassel of grass and pear blossoms on her head.

If the seats were only arranged according to their background, I am afraid that Wang Qianqian would have to go to the back, but the eunuch who led the way actually brought people directly to the front, and under the expressions of surprise on both sides, she sat on the left hand side of Shen Nanzhi and Meng Xian.

"Grandpa Xia, how do you arrange this seat!? She Shen Nanzhi wants to sit in such a good position, and she also has to see if she is worthy, right? As soon as she sat down, Wang Qianqian asked in a loud voice to Gonggong Xia, who had brought her over, "I remember that it was the lord of Mingzhu who was supposed to sit here, why, there were also doves occupying the magpie's nest at the dinner party in the northern suburbs?" ”

"The dove occupies the magpie's nest and doesn't dare, it's just that we are just sitting here with the eighth princess on the order of the eighth princess," Shen Nanzhi had a cold face, and was already very unhappy when he saw Wang Qianqian sitting beside him, but he had to listen to her come up and sneer, "But why is the sister of the Wang family sitting in front?" ”

"My position was naturally arranged by Concubine An herself! The concubine takes care of me, how can people like you envy me? Wang Qianqian snorted coldly, her eyes contemptuous.

Meng Xian is very aware of Wang Qianqian's temper, the two have been classmates in Hanlin for a long time, but the relationship between the two has never been hot or cold. Mainly because Meng Xian's eldest brother is Wang Ge Lao's subordinate, even if she doesn't like Wang Qianqian's personality anymore, it is not easy to offend her openly. Although the court and the inner house have nothing to do with each other, it is not good to owe favors after all.

It was because she saw that Shen Nanzhi and Wang Qianqian were already tense, and she was a little at a loss when she was caught in the middle, so she had to smile at both ends: "Okay, okay, sister Nanzhi, don't quarrel, it's just that one has inherited the love of the eighth princess, and the other has won the love of Concubine An, and it is not a good thing to quarrel at the banquet......"

Shen Nanzhi didn't want to embarrass Meng Xian, she knew that she didn't want to offend Wang Qianqian, so she smiled shallowly: "Sister Meng said yes." ”

Wang Qianqian refused to appreciate it, tilted her head and snorted coquettishly: "Forgive me how to seduce Little Prince An, won't you still be happy with Concubine An?" ”

In this kind of matter, Shen Nanzhi didn't bother to quarrel with her at all. He simply turned his head away and didn't leave her again. If it was really after a while, Wang Qianqian lost any fighting spirit, and she was depressed.

After a while, I heard the voice of the eunuch outside: "The emperor has arrived—Concubine An has arrived—"

Everyone stood up together, and everyone stood up and looked at the gate of the Tianhe Hall in a regular manner, only to see a few palace people coming in outside, and after entering the door, they stood respectfully on both sides of the gate and waited respectfully, and then saw the emperor, Concubine An, Shen Jiading and Lu Yunqi walking in together.

I haven't seen the emperor for a long time, but there is no big change, and Concubine An is as shrewd and capable as ever, what surprised Shen Nanzhi was Shen Jiading - but I haven't seen it for a few days, Shen Jiading actually took off a layer of skin and was haggard, with two black blue now, and his face was as yellow as paper, and the young man who was full of energy in the past seemed to have changed in a few days. Even if he dresses neatly and his hair is meticulous, it is difficult to hide his sluggishness.

Not only Shen Nanzhi, but also some others were surprised, and after meeting with the emperor, they couldn't bear to ask: "What's wrong with Little Prince An?" Why are you so emaciated!? ”

Shen Jiading narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "I was seriously ill a few days ago. ”

The clans here basically grew up outside the capital, so naturally they won't know that a few days ago the capital said that An Xiaowang made a big fuss, and those who are here are in the capital, and when they hear that An Xiaowang said this, they will not say anything for no reason to disgust. Everyone naturally believed it when they heard it, and they expressed their concern for Shen Jiading in their hearts.

Shen Jiading only walked forward with a light smile, hesitated a little when passing by Shen Nanzhi's position, and looked at Shen Nanzhi a few more times, as if he was a little distracted.

Shen Nanzhi had already heard Wang Qianqian's sneering voice, and when he was at a loss, he heard Lu Yunqi's voice: "Little Lord An, your seat is on the left-hand side, sit down quickly!" ”

Shen Jiading was stunned for a moment, then he came back to his senses, and smiled bitterly at Shen Nanzhi, that smile was extremely distressing: "Little fourth sister, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Shen Nanzhi hung her head and bowed to say hello, she knew that if she behaved more enthusiastically, she was afraid that Concubine An would not be able to eat her alive.

Everyone sat down one after another, and after the emperor sat down, everyone sat back one by one, Lu Yunqi and Concubine An were next to the emperor on the left and right, because Concubine An wanted to be closer to her son, Lu Yunqi sat on the emperor's left hand, that is, closer to Shen Nanzhi and them.

Shen Nanzhi winked at the man from afar, even if he was grateful. Lu Yunqi was not polite, the corners of his lips were hooked, his eyebrows were raised, and he looked like he had done a great favor and was waiting to thank him.

Shen Nanzhi rolled his eyes with a smile, and selectively didn't see Lu Yunqi's small expression. Lu Yunqi also smiled lightly, turned his head and waited for the emperor on the throne to speak.
