However, Wu Zechen seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, he was not calm in his heart. He was inexplicably thinking about what Xia Luotong and Liu Zimo said, and why they deliberately avoided the maid he sent to her. The coming of winter...
His slightly lowered eyes glanced at Liu Zimo involuntarily. Seeing the latter's gentle and friendly manner chatting and laughing with the guests around him, a certain guess couldn't help but arise in his heart.
Does she like this?
As soon as this idea came up, he couldn't help but feel angry. He wanted to ask her clearly for no reason, but he couldn't tell what he wanted to ask...
The irritable mood made the air pressure around Wu Zechen become more and more depressing. Liu Zimo, not far away, seemed to be aware of it. He glanced over with a sneer in his eyes.
Xia Luotong didn't know the situation on the male guest's side. She only knew that she should make sure that the plans of the Li family and the Xia family could proceed smoothly.
As the protagonist of this wedding banquet, Xia Luotong attracted the attention of most ladies and ladies as soon as he stepped back into the waterside pavilion, including Li and Xia Zhilu.
"It's been so long since I've been in the clean room, and it's really rude to keep all the ladies and ladies waiting like this. Just now, my sister advised my sister to eat less. Not only did she not listen, she even scolded her. Now I know my sister's good intentions. ?" Although Xia Zhilu already knew her mother's actions, she still couldn't help but sneer when she saw Xia Luotong's bright and beautiful face.
She wants to do anything that can make Xia Luotong embarrassed and embarrassed!
"Eh? Did my sister just remind me with good intentions? Those who didn't know thought that my sister felt sorry for Qianzi!" Xia Luotong said with a look of surprise on his face, "It seems that my sister really needs to learn the skills of speaking in the future, otherwise it will be so... Her words and tone of voice might make people think that my sister wants to quarrel, but that would be a misunderstanding, right?"
Seeing Xia Luotong's frightened expression as she patted her chest and lectured, Xia Zhilu was so angry that she just wanted to step forward and tear her hypocritical and charming face to pieces: "How could my dignified minister of rites be short of such a small amount of money! Sister, don't want it. Spewing blood!"
Xia Zhilu did not refer to Xia Luotong as a member of Xia's family. Naturally, all the guests could hear this, but no one was surprised at all. After all, everyone in the capital knew about Xia Luotong's situation.
But what surprised everyone was Xia Luotong's reaction. Even she didn't care about the Xia family's rejection of her, and she even made no secret of her conflicts with Li and Xia Zhilu.
In the eyes of the world, whether you can stand firm in your husband's family depends on the strength of your mother's family, and whether your mother's family values the daughter and is willing to be her daughter's support. Therefore, the status of your mother's family is extremely important in the hearts of all daughters. of.
But Xia Luotong's words and deeds clearly indicate that he has no intention of getting along with Li and Xia Zhilu, and is not even interested in maintaining a superficial harmony. And judging from Xia Zhihe's behavior, it is obvious that he does not care about Xia Luotong. This made all the ladies and ladies present suspicious.
Judging from the reactions at the table just now, is it possible that Prince An really loves Xia Luotong, Princess An? Is that why she doesn't care about her parents' family so much?
Prince Ke'an's special love for Liu Yingxue, the legitimate daughter of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, was noticed by all the nobles in the capital. Although the two of them had never been seen together recently, the fact that they had traveled hand in hand several times before had attracted everyone's attention. It was obvious to all that Prince An was interested in Liu Yingxue and even valued her.
As for whether she is more important than Princess An's Princess Xia Luotong, after everyone thought about the so-called princess's background and the reason why she married into the palace, everyone felt that this question did not seem to be a problem at all.
Therefore, everyone could easily come to the conclusion that Princess An must have a bad mind...
Facing the strange looks from everyone, Xia Luotong didn't take it to heart at all. She walked to the main seat and sat down. She immediately noticed the unusual smell in the air around her.
Broken blue leaves...
really! The Xia family finally took action!
A cold smile flashed across his eyes, and Xia Luotong continued to speak, pretending not to notice: "Really? I thought it was to save money and cut corners on the table, otherwise why would I be so uncomfortable? You know, this has never happened before in the palace."
Seeing how well Xia Luotong never left the palace and how well Prince An treated her, Xia Zhilu and Mrs. Li were so angry that they secretly gritted their teeth. Now they even wanted to throw dirty water on them, especially when they saw that there were After hearing what Xia Luotong said, the faces of the ladies and ladies were not very good, and the mother and daughter were even more angry.
"If my eldest aunt can't speak, it's better to be cautious. Our Xia family has always been well-known for its hospitality. The banquet is made of fine materials. Perhaps you have never had such good food in your daily life. So you may not be used to it for a while." Ms. Li's expression dropped and she warned in a deep voice.
Xia Luotong didn't care whether Mrs. Li was angry or not, he just smiled faintly. Although the disdain on his face was light, it could not be ignored: "Looking at what mother said, is it possible that the banquet at Xia Mansion can be better than that at Prince An's Mansion?"
Deliberately emphasizing the words "Prince An's Palace" is nothing more than telling Li that that is the only prince in the Zhou Dynasty and a true royal family. Is it possible that the food and clothing can't be compared to the family of a mere second-rank official?
Mrs. Li's face turned dark. She looked at Xia Luotong, whose personality had changed drastically. While she was holding back her anger, she couldn't help but secretly wonder why the effect of this medicine was so slow? It is said that this bitch has been fed poison for more than ten years, and the poison is deeply rooted. He should have an attack as soon as he smells some medicine. How can he talk to himself so sharply?
"Of course mother didn't mean that. She was just curious whether my aunt's life in the palace was really that good."
Xia Luotong didn't miss the flash of doubt and anxiety on Li's face, and he sneered in his heart. Anyway, the time was almost up, and we really couldn't delay it any longer, otherwise these people would become suspicious.
"My life in the palace is naturally good, but the prince..."
Just as he was talking, Xia Luotong's face suddenly changed, and then a mouthful of dark purple blood spurted out from her delicate red lips. Then he was caught in the horrified gazes of all the ladies and ladies, and fell to the ground with a pale face. He never said anything again. Any movement!
This incident happened so suddenly that everyone in the waterside pavilion was shocked, and they reacted immediately. Then there were screams one after another, and many young ladies in the waiting room were frightened!
The person who was talking peacefully suddenly suddenly vomited blood and fell down!
Even Mr. Li, who had done this, paused for a moment before reacting, trying hard to suppress the ecstasy in his heart so as not to show any trace of it on his face.
Done!
