The crazy look of the pink-clothed girl made the madam frown. She noticed the looks of everyone around her and felt resentful in her heart. She could not help but continue to embarrass herself. She immediately glanced at the personal maid beside her.
The maid understood this, and immediately together with the other two maids who were attending the banquet, dragged her young lady to a wing not far from the banquet hall, so as not to cause further commotion in the banquet hall.
It wasn't until her daughter was taken away that the lady looked at Prince An and Princess An, and asked angrily: "Should the prince and princess give an explanation? My daughter came to toast the princess with good intentions, but now she is being That poisonous sweet soup has made her look like this, her appearance has been completely ruined, how can she get married in the future?!"
At this time, she had made up her mind. This daughter was considered useless, but she couldn't let it go to waste. As long as she could force Prince An to join the palace, even if she was just a concubine, she would be considered to be relying on Prince An. This big tree, as for whether her daughter could be favored, was not at all within her scope of consideration.
After all, his appearance is so scary, how can he still be favored?
In fact, many people had witnessed the dispute between Princess An and the girl in pink. Now I saw the lady saying this and specifically mentioning the matter of marriage. How could I not see her intention? She was planning to rely on Prince An, and wanted Prince An to bring her daughter into the palace!
But would a cold and powerful person like Prince An really be coerced by her into bringing her disfigured daughter into the palace? This is not a question of raising one more person, but whether you are willing to admit this loss!
Just when everyone was speculating, Xia Luotong was about to respond, but Wu Zechen tightened his arms to stop her from speaking.
Wu Zechen looked at the lady with cold eyes and said, "No wonder you can teach your daughter to be like that. It turns out that your mother is also a shameless person who confuses right and wrong."
As soon as these words came out, the lady's face immediately changed, and she was very embarrassed. After all, she was said like this in front of everyone, and it came from the mouth of the dignified Prince An. No matter what the final result was, she was completely humiliated.
Wu Zechen was reluctant to let Xia Luotong start a verbal quarrel every time. Even if she did nothing wrong, she would be called arrogant and strong in the end. Although she didn't care about other people's opinions at all, he didn't want to She was so criticized by others.
He continued in a cold voice: "It was your daughter who came to toast the princess herself, regardless of the princess's physical safety, and even openly offended and threatened the princess with words. After that, she brought the maid with the sweet soup herself and spilled the sweet soup. It’s her who’s the one who’s hurt, how can she blame this king on me? If I hadn’t protected the princess, I’m afraid the one who’s injured now is the princess. Can you afford this crime?”
"You actually have the nerve to ask me to take responsibility for the consequences she caused herself?" Wu Zechen snorted coldly, glanced at the Xia family next to him who had been holding a nonchalant attitude, and said softly, "As for that sweet Why is there poisonous weed juice in the soup? Then you have to ask the people in the Xia Mansion. The king and the princess are also guests of the Xia Mansion today, so they don’t know much about this dish."
Li didn't expect that Prince An would suddenly pull them out. Originally, they had deliberately lowered their presence and wanted to let the two houses fight. Unexpectedly, they were brought up. Obviously Prince An didn't want to see them hiding comfortably in the house. Watch the excitement from the sidelines.
The Xia Mansion is the master's house. Something like this happened at the banquet today. Regardless of whether it has anything to do with them or not, there must be an explanation. But who in the aristocratic circle in Beijing doesn't know about these tricks at the banquet? Accidents often happen at banquets on weekdays, but no one specifically blames the host. After all, if someone really wants to cause trouble at the banquet, it will be difficult for the host to prevent it.
There were so many guests coming and going at the banquet, plus the personal maids brought by each family. The number of people was so large that it was impossible for the host to send servants to follow them one by one, otherwise wouldn't it be like a spy?
Because of this, Ms. Li didn't panic. She had already expected it and made preparations in advance, sending her servants to investigate. So at this time, she calmly glanced at the nanny beside her.
The mama understood and immediately stepped forward and said: "Return to the prince and concubine, madam, my wife has just sent an old slave to investigate. The sweet soup is the last dish of today's banquet. It was originally supposed to be the servant of my house. People were brought there one by one, but the maid next to the young lady just now went to the kitchen in person and brought out one of the freshly cooked sweet soups in advance, and then this happened. The sweet soups were all made by the same person. It was cooked in one pot, and other sweet soups have just been served on the table, so I will let the doctor check them one by one."
After that, the grandma led the newly arrived doctor to check each table one by one. She saw the doctor shaking his head one after another. Is there anything else that everyone doesn't understand?
The nanny just made it clear that the sweet soup containing poisonous weed juice on the main table was brought by the young lady’s own maid, but the sweet soup on the other tables did not have poison. In this case, except for the young lady herself , who else can put poisonous juice into sweet soup?
Coupled with what Prince An said just now, the truth of the matter has gradually become clear. It is clear that the young lady deliberately wanted to toast Princess An, and then when the toast failed, she wanted to splash the princess with poisonous sweet soup. He pretended to be surprised, but unexpectedly it ended up hurting himself.
Such a drama about a thief shouting to catch a thief immediately caused everyone to look at the lady with nothing but contempt. After her daughter had done such a thing, the lady actually wanted to use this opportunity to go to Prince An's Mansion and seize the opportunity. If his daughter is sent to the palace and behaves like this, does he really think that Prince An is easy to bully?
At this time, everyone unexpectedly remembered what Princess An said just now, saying that the young lady went to Prince An and said she wanted to toast Princess An, but in fact she wanted to attract Prince An's attention...
With such a connection, what else doesn't everyone understand? The feeling is that this young lady was jealous of Princess An and wanted to enter Prince An's palace, so she staged such a drama, but in the end she suffered such a huge setback that she would never recover.
Everyone who understood the truth was talking a lot at this time, and all kinds of eyes fell on the lady, which only made her feel ashamed.
Seeing that the truth was revealed, Wu Zechen looked at the lady with cold eyes and said: "Since the lady of your house has suffered the consequences, I will not punish her for her evil thoughts and offenses against the princess. But if you If you continue to pester me, don’t blame me for being strict with you!”
