Xia Zhilu was too lazy to pay attention to Mrs. Li, and she knew in her heart that Ms. Li now had no time to pay attention to her.
Mrs. Li is now focused on the child she just conceived, and is constantly suppressing Sun Jiaolan and competing with Mrs. Xia in a battle of wits and courage.
Xia Zhilu knew in her heart that Mrs. Li disliked her even more now, but she would still care about her brother Xia Hongzhang from time to time, but she didn't care about herself at all.
Xia Zhilu gritted her teeth secretly, it didn't matter if she lost her mother's concern, her father would help her anyway! As long as she enters the palace and has the prince's favor, who cares about her mother? !
Seeing Prince An protecting the woman and walking towards the palace after getting off the carriage, Xia Zhilu could only give up the idea of going forward to talk. She grabbed the handkerchief and thought about how to approach Prince An when she arrived at the banquet hall.
What Xia Zhilu didn't expect was that the Xia family was actually assigned to the same seat as Xia Luotong!
For this wedding banquet, men and women were rarely seated separately. In fact, it is rare for men and women to be seated separately nowadays. Even at more formal banquets in the palace, it is rare for men and women to be seated separately.
Everyone didn't know why the prince made such an arrangement, but since it was such a stipulation, everyone could only abide by it. Fortunately, although they were seated separately, they were in the same banquet hall, with separate seats for men and women in the left and right halls. The room was not far apart, and the Xia family was assigned to the same table as Xia Luotong.
Although Xia Luotong is the eldest daughter of the Xia family, the difference in her relationship with the Xia family has reached the point where no one in the capital knows about it. Ordinarily, in order to avoid embarrassment, the master should separate them, but this time The wedding banquet was to arrange them together.
Xia Luotong is now Princess An, and has an extraordinary status. As the wife of the Minister of Etiquette and the second-grade imperial concubine, Mrs. Li has an equally high status, so the ladies and ladies at their table are all of high status.
At this time, their table was already full, and they were all well-informed people. They naturally knew about the relationship between Xia Luotong and the Xia family, especially with Mrs. Xia, so the faces of the ladies from each family had some expressions. subtle.
Some were waiting to see the good show, and some were looking for topics with embarrassed faces, but without exception, they all paid most of their attention to them, just waiting to see if they would be as good as before at the prince's wedding banquet. So tit for tat.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that the show actually started from the moment they sat down.
Li had just led Xia Zhilu to sit down when she stopped Sun Jiaolan, who was also wanting to sit down. The expression on her face was undisguised contempt and disgust: "What is your identity? Do you dare to sit down on such an occasion? Concubine. You just don’t understand the rules!”
As soon as Li's words came out, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone at the table. Even Xia Luotong looked up and saw that it was Li who was scolding Sun Jiaolan.
Xia Luotong was not surprised at all that Sun Jiaolan, a noble concubine, could attend such a banquet, because she already knew about it before coming.
Moreover, when they were at the gate of the palace just now, although the two parties did not say hello, Xia Luotong still noticed the Xia family's party for the banquet and Sun Jiaolan among them.
Sun Jiaolan had already grasped Xia Zhihe's thoughts, so it didn't take much effort for Xia Zhihe to offer to take her to the banquet.
After Mrs. Li learned about this, she naturally made a fuss, but in the end it had no effect at all. Xia Zhihe was determined to get Sun Jiaolan to attend the banquet.
Mrs. Li was really angry about this for several days. When she got the chance, she naturally wanted to punish Sun Jiaolan. Besides, today's banquet was for men and women separately. Without Xia Zhihe to protect her, she had to deal with a concubine. Not easy yet?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Li sneered in her heart. Looking at Sun Jiaolan, whose face turned red and who was standing behind her to set the rules, she said without any polite words: "If you hadn't been so obsessed with me, I would have let me take care of you." You came to the banquet, do you think you are qualified to enter the palace just because of your status as a concubine?"
"Don't think that the master loves you so much that you can be so ignorant of etiquette. When a lady is dining, her concubine can sit at the same table? Since you have to come, then just wait on the side honestly and don't let others see it. What a joke, saying our Xia family has no rules!"
Mrs. Li scolded Sun Jiaolan one sentence after another. Seeing Sun Jiaolan standing behind her with her head lowered, she felt extremely happy.
Normally I can't get any favors from this bitch, but now that I'm out of the house, let's see how this bitch can still compete with me!
If Sun Jiaolan dares to make trouble with him outside, then Xia Zhihe will have no reason to spare Sun Jiaolan, and he can also see Sun Jiaolan's hypocritical face clearly!
Mrs. Li hated the fact that Sun Jiaolan put on a weak and lovable look all day long and made Xia Zhihe confused. Xia Zhihe believed whatever Sun Jiaolan said, but no matter what she said, Xia Zhihe didn't believe it. .
Since Sun Jiaolan insists on showing her face today, don't blame yourself for not giving her face!
Mrs. Li kept scolding Sun Jiaolan. The ladies and ladies at the same table were watching the excitement, but Xia Zhilu's attention was not here at all.
When she saw Xia Luotong sitting alone at this table, she couldn't help but look around the hall, searching for that heroic figure.
This is a rare opportunity right now!
Prince An is not with Xia Luotong, doesn't it just give her a chance to get close to Prince An? !
Normally, Prince An could not be found at all. No matter how much Xia Zhilu inquired, she could not find Prince An's whereabouts, so today she had to seize the opportunity!
Just when Xia Zhilu was thinking about what excuse to use to leave the table and what reason to use to approach Prince An, a lazy and familiar female voice interrupted her thoughts.
“Mrs. I'm so excited." Xia Luotong said coolly.
Anyway, now we all know that we are at odds with the Xia family. It just so happens that we don’t have to play around anymore. Naturally, we can do whatever makes us happy.
Li's face darkened, and her good mood immediately disappeared by half. She wanted to retaliate on the spot, but the current situation was too inconvenient, and Xia Luotong's status was too high, so she had to worry about it no matter what. Point the power of the Prince's Mansion.
But if she were to endure it like this, she felt unhappy. Her mind wandered, and she suddenly thought of a direction that could attack Xia Luotong.
"It makes the princess laugh. Maybe she is pregnant now and has a bit of a temper. She is afraid that the concubine at home will offend all the ladies, so she is a bit anxious." Mrs. Li smiled with pride, not hiding her intention to show off at all. , "Actually, I am very satisfied with having a son and a daughter. Who would have thought that I would get pregnant again."
