It was not until the ladies were talking that Xia Luotong spoke sarcastically: "Ladies and ladies, who have just been talking so enthusiastically, do you really come from aristocratic families? Why don't you remember the order of hierarchy clearly? I am the concubine. I suggest that you study it carefully after you return home, so as not to bring trouble to your husband's family."
As soon as Xia Luotong said this, the ladies and ladies who were speaking enthusiastically paused for a moment, and then immediately changed their faces. They never expected that Xia Luotong, who was so denounced by everyone, would dare to talk back? ! Are you really not afraid of offending so many of them? !
Some people became increasingly angry, but others reacted quickly. Xia Luotong's change in her self-identification made them think of something in an instant. Sure enough...
"According to the laws of our dynasty, the rank comes first. Prince An, as the only prince in the Zhou Dynasty, is of the first rank. And as Princess An, who is on the royal jade plate, she is also of the first rank. So calculated Come on, do any of you here feel that your rank is above this concubine? If so, you can stand up and I will give up my position."
Xia Luotong's tone was calm and his eyes were slightly cold, and his expression remained unchanged even when facing many ladies from aristocratic families with rich backgrounds. The fingertips lightly touched the table, and the sound, which was not loud, seemed to hit everyone's hearts. A powerful aura spread instantly, shocking everyone present.
Is this really the daughter of a village woman who has been raised in the countryside since she was a child? ! With such a powerful aura and compelling momentum, not many of the ladies present may be able to practice it, let alone the ladies who have not yet left the government!
It was only then that everyone present couldn't help but start to take a serious look at the eldest daughter of the Xia family who had been reduced to dust by the entire capital. It seemed that she was really completely different from what the rumors said.
But no matter how everyone thinks of Xia Luotong at this time, they all have to admit that what she said is true, and it also forces them to think of her other identity, Princess An, the first-class lady.
No matter how reluctant they are, they have to admit that Xia Luotong's rank is higher than theirs, so she really deserves the top position!
Even if her aunt is present at this moment, whether she gives in or not depends solely on her own wishes. Even if she doesn't give in, others can't say she's wrong at all!
At most, one can only mock her behind her back for disrespecting her aunt, but looking at her posture at this time, does she seem to care about what others say about her? If you really cared, there wouldn't be such a drama about fighting for seats!
Among the ladies present at this time, none of them had a royal title comparable to Xia Luotong's. Even the Xia family's aunt, Li Shi, just followed Xia Zhihe's status as the second-rank minister of the Ministry of Rites and was granted a second-rank imperial title. That’s all.
For a moment, everyone was speechless. After all, no one could refute. During the moment of silence, the scene was very embarrassing. Even the ladies and ladies who were just eating melon felt a little uncomfortable. Only Xia Luotong One person seemed not to be affected at all, and even calmly greeted the maid not far away to serve him tea.
Mrs. Li gritted her back teeth, trying her best to be patient, but in her heart she was thinking bitterly, let's see how long you can stay proud! Maybe if you can't wait until tomorrow, you will become a corpse!
She never thought that after allowing this despicable bastard to marry into the palace, one day he would come back and step on her!
However, no matter how angry she was, Mrs. Li had to adjust her emotions as quickly as possible. She opened her mouth to smooth things over and called all the ladies to take their seats. After all, she was the host of this wedding banquet. If she didn't handle it well, , maybe she won’t have to wait until the next day, and she will become the laughing stock among the powerful circles in Beijing!
With Li's help, everyone quickly returned to normal, as if the dispute just now had never happened at all.
Everyone is a frequent visitor to various banquets. Who hasn’t experienced big storms? I have seen more exciting scenes than this. This kind of small dispute is no big deal. I can just turn around and continue talking and laughing.
However, everyone seemed to be chatting in small groups, but their attention was invariably focused on the main seat. After all, today's provincial wedding banquet would never be that simple. Everyone knew this. I just don’t know how it will develop in the future?
Mrs. Li greeted a circle of guests, and when she was about to sit down, she was unwilling to sit under Xia Luotong. After all, how could she, who was pampered, considered herself to be of noble birth and valued face, endure it?
Finally, Mrs. Li called a maid, moved a chair and placed it next to the main seat, flush with the original main seat, and then she reluctantly sat on it.
Xia Luotong looked at Li's actions with a calm expression, and sneered in her heart, but she didn't care where Li sat in the end, it was just a seat. For her, the purpose of doing all this was just to make Li not Just comfortable.
She is really not anxious at all. She will get back bit by bit the hatred that Li and Xia Zhihe, mother and son, have done to her mother, Sun, and the Sun family.
She won't let them die too happily, after all, it would be too cheap for these scumbags...
Being among the powerful circles in the capital, Xia Luotong was undoubtedly a foreigner who suddenly intervened. Not only did he not know anyone, but he was also isolated due to what happened just now.
The ladies and ladies were chatting about their own affairs and had no intention of paying any attention to Xia Luotong. She was left alone to sit on the main seat that she had "robbed". The ladies and ladies of the Li family even deliberately put her in the chair. Isolated, she was like an isolated island...
However, all the ladies and ladies who were waiting to see the joke never imagined that Xia Luotong, the so-called Princess An, who was sitting alone in the main seat, was not affected by this at all, and even looked particularly happy and comfortable...
Because at the moment, she was happily eating all kinds of fruits, and she didn't even bother to look at everyone, as if the food on the plate was more beautiful than them...
As the saying goes, as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed!
Xia Luotong was obviously in such a situation at this time. She looked like she wanted no one to disturb her eating, which really made many ladies and ladies feel a little embarrassed.
However, many of them secretly laughed at her, saying that the vulgar Princess An was like a starving ghost reincarnated. She ate the most at the banquet just now, and now that she got off the table, she started eating all kinds of things non-stop. Planting fruits and vegetables as if they have never eaten anything in their lives.
Originally, these mocking voices were just in private. After all, Princess An really frightened many people with her way of fighting many ladies with one block. It's not like everyone really has any grudges. There is no need to fight with this person. Face to face with the arrogant and unreasonable Princess An who doesn't care about face, that would be a real joke to others.
But among the many ladies and ladies present, Li was not the only one who had a grudge against Xia Luotong. In fact, there was another person who forcibly and independently "made" a grudge against Xia Luotong.
That is Xia Zhilu...
