But today is different. Lei Manhe is the conferred lord of Ruirong County, and his status is different. Wu Qingqing feels that no matter how arrogant Xia Luotong is, he should not dare to block the lord of Ruirong County. After all, the lord of Ruirong County can still She has the identity of the second lady of Fengguo Duke's mansion!
The Fengguo Duke's Mansion is the queen's natal family and the prince's maternal family!
Shaoguang Pavilion is the most mysterious and most heavily guarded place in the entire palace. She has heard Concubine Xu Zi complain countless times, saying that the Shaoguang Pavilion is as well-defended as an iron barrel, and no one can get in at all. She also doesn’t know about Shaoguang Pavilion. situation there.
Xia Luotong might not allow him to go in, but with Lemanhe around, Xia Luotong would definitely not be able to stop him.
So Wu Qingqing originally had a good idea. As long as he could bring Lei Manhe into the palace, wouldn't it be easy to use Lei Manhe's identity to enter Shaoguang Pavilion?
In this way, Lemanhe's goal is achieved, and he can also get help from Lemanhe. Isn't it the best of both worlds?
However, Wu Qingqing obviously didn't know Xia Luotong well enough. Just when she looked at Xia Luotong confidently and was about to wait for Xia Luotong to give an "explanation", Xia Luotong suddenly turned around and threw herself at the two guards. An appreciative smile.
"Well done. After the change of guard, go to Zhuxuan to receive the reward."
"I would like to thank the princess for the reward."
When the two guards looked at Xia Luotong, their expressions immediately changed. They were full of respect. How could they still be a little cold and hard as before?
However, after thanking them for the reward, when the two guards looked at Wu Qingqing and Lei Manhe again, they resumed their previous attitude of keeping strangers away from them, their eyes full of defensiveness.
When Wu Qingqing saw this, he was almost so angry that he couldn't hold back the look on his face!
What do these two dog slaves mean? She is a young lady from the royal palace! He is a serious master! Why do they look like they are looking at an outsider? !
And Xia Luotong! Not only did he not punish the two guards, but they rewarded them, right in front of him!
"Princess, what do you mean by this? Is it right for these two dog slaves to keep the distinguished guest and me out?" Wu Qingqing's face already looked a little unhappy.
In fact, it stands to reason that Wu Qingqing should call Xia Luotong "Royal Wife", but Wu Qingqing obviously didn't want to call Xia Luotong that way, so he always called her "Princess Princess".
Xia Luotong didn't care what Wu Qingqing called her. Anyway, she didn't care about this sister-in-law. She seemed less close to her if she didn't call her, which was just right.
"Is there any problem in stopping you? Is this Shaoguang Pavilion your courtyard? It's this hour and you haven't woken up yet?" Xia Luotong retorted back without mercy. Anyway, his relationship with the West Courtyard is It is inherently bad, and everyone knows it in their hearts. There is no need to maintain the superficial appearance to embarrass themselves.
What's more, even if you want to maintain superficial harmony, it still depends on who you are dealing with. Forget about someone like the prince who can't fall out with him. Who does she, Wu Qingqing, mean?
Wu Qingqing's face suddenly turned red at Xia Luotong's series of replies, completely angry! And because of embarrassment!
She never thought that Xia Luotong would be so disrespectful to her in front of Lei Manhe!
"Is this how the princess treats guests? So aggressive?" Wu Qingqing's fists in his sleeves were already clenched.
"Hosting guests? Where did I get the guests? Wu Qingqing, are you kidding me? You found this person, what does he have to do with me?" Xia Luotong sneered, "Aggressive? I didn't force myself into you. yard, and pointed at your nose and said you were aggressive, are you learning the rules from Concubine Xu? The Xu family really knows how to raise their daughters, both of them are so eye-opening."
Xia Luotong looked at Wu Qingqing pointedly, with an expression that reminded people of Xu Caidi, who passed away not long ago.
Wu Qingqing didn't expect that Xia Luotong would put himself in the same category as Xu Caidi. He was almost so angry that he couldn't hold back, but his face was already very ugly to the naked eye.
Fortunately, she still remembered Xia Luotong's identity and knew that she could not compare with Xia Luotong, so she immediately moved out of Lei Manhe beside her.
"The Lord of Ruirong County is visiting our palace. Is it inappropriate for the Princess to say that? We are all visitors. Is it possible that the Princess is blocking the County Lord from the door like this? Aren't you afraid that the news will spread throughout the capital tomorrow?" Wu Qingqing looked at Xia Luo with a solemn face. Tong, she doesn't even bother to pretend at this time.
In her opinion, this woman Xia Luotong cannot judge with common sense at all. If she still pretends to be weak, she will be bullied even worse! There are no outsiders here anyway, so there is nothing to hide.
But what puzzled Wu Qingqing was that Xia Luotong was supposed to know Lei Manhe, but why did he dare to say such rude words? Isn't she afraid of the Duke of Fengguo? So what if she is Princess An? Behind the Fengguo Palace are the queen and the prince! And Lei Manhe’s sister is still the crown princess!
In Wu Qingqing's view, the prince will ascend the throne as emperor in the future! Who dares to be an enemy of Fengguo Gongfu? !
Wu Qingqing thought he was hugging Le Manhe's lap, but he didn't expect that all this was nothing in Xia Luotong's eyes.
"Are you threatening me?" Xia Luotong's eyes turned cold when he looked at Wu Qingqing.
"How could it be? I just reminded the princess." Wu Qingqing was stared at by Xia Luotong, and her heart tightened for no reason, and she suddenly felt a little uneasy.
How could Xia Luotong's eyes be so sharp...
"Everyone who comes to the door is a guest? Is it considered a guest to come uninvited? Is it possible that the robber and thief can also be regarded as a guest?" Xia Luotong mocked unceremoniously, "I said that you invited me. I have nothing to do with you, it is my kindness to allow you to lead people into the east courtyard."
As soon as Xia Luotong said these words, Wu Qingqing's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Lei Manhe next to him uneasily. Sure enough, he saw that Lei Manhe's already gloomy face became more and more clouded.
Is this comparing Le Manhe to a robber and thief?
Wu Qingqing hurriedly said: "The Lord of Ruirong County has a distinguished status! The princess must be careful what she says! And I am also the master of the palace. Why can't the east courtyard come? Why can't the guests I invite be regarded as guests of the palace?"
Lei Manhe, who had been blocked from the door and ignored by Xia Luotong for so long, was already in a very bad mood. Now after hearing Xia Luotong's words, he finally couldn't help but speak.
Ignoring Wu Qingqing who was leading him into the palace next to him, Lei Manhe stared at Xia Luotong coldly and asked, "Princess An, what do you mean?"
She already looked down on Xia Luotong's background, and she was jealous because Xia Luotong "occupied" Princess An's position. Now she was treated like this by Xia Luotong, how could she endure it?
Being ridiculed by someone she looked down upon, she had not suffered such humiliation for a long time!
