I'm afraid not only Xia Zhihe doesn't care about Li's mood at the moment, but also her children, Xia Hongzhang and Xia Zhilu.
Xia Hongzhang has long developed a character that only cares about himself. Even if it is his mother Li, he has never thought of looking back to see what happened to his mother.
Not to mention Xia Zhilu, she has already seen her mother's thoughts clearly. Since her mother only cares about her twin brothers, and in her eyes, she is just a person who helps pave the way for her brother, then why should she care about her mother?
However, Xia Zhilu was also in a very bad mood at this moment. During this period, she was baptized by all kinds of looks, all of which were derogatory. She was even invisible ostracism from the circle of noble ladies. No matter where she went, everyone seemed to Stay away from her like the plague and make her suffer!
This is all because of what happened some time ago!
Including what happened at the gate of Prince An's Mansion, and during this period, all kinds of news about the Xia family were spread throughout the capital, making her the object that everyone avoided.
Xia Zhilu never thought that she would have such a day. Originally, she still had some status in the circle of girls in the capital, and there were many young ladies who were trying to curry favor with or befriend her. Now, But only some young ladies from small official families were close to her. How could she accept this?
And all this is thanks to that woman Xia Luotong! And her good mother is also one of the people who put herself in this situation!
Her mother's partiality deprived her of a lot of support in her struggle to become Princess An, and it was the culprit that caused her to lose her position as Princess An!
Whenever she thought of this, she couldn't help but resent her mother, and the incident at the jewelry store also affected her, causing her to suffer a lot of cold looks from the ladies these days.
But fortunately, now she has her father to help her, and she even got help from the prince with his father's help!
Thinking of this, Xia Zhilu couldn't help but raise a faint and proud smile. Now that she has the help of the prince, who can stop her?
When she takes the position of Princess An, who will dare to look down on her in the future? Who dares to wink at her?
And now these people who look down on her will have to support her, look at her face and speak, and be careful everywhere!
Even in Xia Zhilu's eyes, with the help of the prince, the position of Princess An is already within her grasp!
Xia Zhilu was still smug, trapped in her sweet dream, unable to extricate herself, but she didn't notice at all that Xia Luotong, not far away, had already noticed something was wrong with her.
Looking at the look on Xia Zhilu's face, Xia Luotong keenly sensed something was wrong. She pondered for a moment, then turned to give Lindong some instructions.
Lindong nodded cautiously and took the order to retreat without disturbing the others. Only Wu Zechen who was beside him noticed her movements.
Looking at Lindong leaving quietly, Wu Zechen asked Xia Luotong beside him in a low voice: "But what happened?"
"It's okay, I just have something I'm concerned about. Let Lindong check it out." Xia Luotong shook his head gently.
Wu Zechen nodded when he saw this, and just warned: "Don't let Lindong leave for too long. It's okay when I'm by your side. I'm just afraid that I will have to leave after a while, and you won't be safe alone."
Xia Luotong nodded in agreement. She also knew that it would be difficult for Wu Zechen to stay by her side at such a banquet, so she had to be more careful.
Today's reception banquet, many courtiers came. Soon after everyone arrived, the emperor showed up. After the eunuch announced that the banquet had officially begun, it was the turn of the envoys from various countries to enter the palace one after another.
The first person to enter the hall was the prince of the Ancient Dan Kingdom. He had short curly brown hair, blue eyes, deep facial features as carved by knives and axes, and clothes full of the style of the Ancient Dan Kingdom.
As soon as the Gudan Kingdom envoy stepped into the main hall, they immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the most eye-catching was the Gudan Kingdom Crown Prince.
The appearance of the people of the Gudan Kingdom is quite different from that of the people of the Zhou Dynasty. They can be distinguished at a glance. As for their acceptance, it all depends on the individual. At least in Xia Luotong's eyes, The prince of the Gudan Kingdom is really too handsome.
Even compared to Wu Zechen next to him, he was no less generous.
Perhaps Xia Luotong's gaze of appreciating beauty was too direct. The hand that was originally resting on her leg was grabbed by the man next to her and pinched, as if as a warning.
Xia Luotong turned around in confusion and saw the disgusted look on his man's face, and almost stopped laughing.
"You still dare to laugh? You are looking at other men! Look how I will deal with you when I go back at night!" Wu Zechen was so angry that he gritted his teeth and warned, almost covering Xia Luotong's eyes with his hands.
Xia Luotong's face turned red, and then he replied with a smile: "I just think that the prince of Gudan Kingdom looks good and kind."
It's strange to say that she actually feels a bit familiar with this person she saw for the first time. Could it be that it's just a matter of fate?
"What kind of face is there? You just think he is handsome, right? Can he be better than your husband?" Wu Zechen said in a depressed voice, "Don't stare at him anymore."
"Okay, okay, don't look anymore. My husband is the most handsome. Just look at my husband. That's okay, right?" Xia Luotong looked at the man next to him who was rarely showing off his temper in a funny way, and coaxed him nicely.
Wu Zechen listened and nodded with satisfaction.
However, Wu Zechen's eyes darkened when he saw the crown prince of the Gudan Kingdom who came forward to pay homage to the emperor. Speaking of which, Xia Luotong's biological mother, Sun Shi, was said to look a bit like a mixture of people from the Gudan Kingdom and the Great Zhou.
It's just that so many years have passed since this incident, and the Sun family in Anyuan Town was bloodbathed by the Li family, the Xia family, and the Li family, and there is not much authentic evidence left. Therefore, there is little progress in the investigation of Xia Luotong's life experience. It’s been tough…
Just when Wu Zechen was thinking about expanding the search scope and tracing the old events of the Sun family, the prince of the Gudan Kingdom, Ino, had already completed the etiquette and returned to his seat.
The person who entered the palace after Gu Danguo was Sati, the prince of the Northern Man tribe. Although Xia Luotong only glanced at this prince in the restaurant, she could easily remember it with her memory. The appearance of Sati.
At this time, she didn't think much about seeing each other again in the main hall, but she unexpectedly discovered that when Prince Sati walked towards the emperor, he seemed to glance at the seat of Fengguo Duke's mansion inadvertently.
Prince Sati's glance didn't last long, but it was still caught by Xia Luotong.
Xia Luotong was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, with a meaningful smile on his face.
Because she thought of the scene when Ruirong County Lord Lei Manhe "thrown himself into the arms" of Prince Sati when they were in the restaurant.
