"Third cousin!" Hua Rong stomped her feet angrily, "Why do you keep talking for her!"
Xie Xun said angrily: "If I don't speak for her, will I let her poison you?"
"She dares!" Hua Rong looked at Chen Anning with disdain, "If she dares to poison me, the emperor will cancel your marriage to her!"
Xie Xun sighed: "Third cousin, what are you doing? After she poisons you, even if the emperor cancels my marriage to her, you will not survive."
Hua Rong snorted coldly, "So what? I'm not afraid!"
Hua Jin's slightly drooped eyes flashed with light.
Xie Xun and Chen Anning both captured this light very well.
Chen Anning joked: "What a sister."
Hua Rong sneered: "Do you think everyone plots and frames each other like you and Miss Chen?"
Chen Anning looked into her fearless eyes and chuckled: "I only admire one kind of person in this world."
Lu Yueyun asked: "What kind of person?"
Chen Anning raised her eyebrows slightly, "A person who is stupid and doesn't realize it."
"You're laughing so hard." Hua Rong mocked, "Who knows who is stupid."
Chen Anning held her cheek with one hand, "If you say that, I will take back my consent for you to go to the ranch to check the accounts of Xie."
Hua Rong snorted: "Who do you think you are?"
Chen Anning joked: "Who am I? I am the person who was granted marriage to your third cousin by the emperor."
"Shameless!" Hua Rong cursed.
Hua Jin glanced at Xie Xun and stopped him calmly: "Rong'er, don't say evil words."
Chen Anning smiled softly, "I am so shameless, and the emperor even gave me a marriage to your third cousin. You are so shameless, but the emperor didn't give you a marriage to him. Shouldn't you reflect on it? What's the problem? Where?"
Hua Rong opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word.
Chen Anning curled her lips and said for her: "Are you trying to say that the emperor granted marriage to me and your third cousin just because I am the only remaining disciple of the Medicine King Valley?"
Hua Rong said: "It's good if you know!"
After Chen Anning tilted her head, she glanced at Xie Xun and then at Lu Deqiu, "Is the Emperor really so superficial?"
Lu Deqiu did not expect that he would be a part of this excitement. He quickly clasped his hands in the direction of the capital and said respectfully: "The emperor is so wise and powerful that he is the most powerful in the world. How can he be so superficial?"
Chen Anning raised her eyebrows at Hua Rong, "Your Majesty is not superficial, so why would you let outstanding women like Miss Hua and Miss Hua San not marry Sir Xie, but marry me to him? Yes?" It’s impossible, the excellence of Miss Hua and Miss Hua is just what they think they are, but it’s just an illusion?”
Lu Yueyun agreed: "It's very possible!"
Lu Jingyun said: "I have long seen that they are only superficial."
"The Emperor was able to grant marriage to Second Miss Chen and Third Cousin because His Majesty has a discerning eye and saw that Second Miss Chen is better than all of us." Hua Jin said quietly, "Rong'er collided with Miss Chen Second, In fact, I don’t have any good intentions. I just grew up with my third cousin since I was a child. I feel that my third cousin is more talented and wise than anyone else. When I met Miss Chen Er at the beginning of this day, I didn’t have the discerning eye of the emperor, so I couldn’t tell that Chen Er The young lady is better than the young lady next to her, but she feels that she is not worthy of her third cousin, and she feels aggrieved for a moment, and that's why she is like this."
"I would also like to invite Miss Chen Er to have a large number of elegant guests. Don't argue with her."
Mrs. Lu glanced at her approvingly: These words are truly beautiful!
Not only did he compliment the emperor, but he also used her as a spearhead to secretly demote all the ladies. If he were not at the prefect's mansion at this moment, but at a banquet, just this sentence could attract many enemies to Chen Anning.
In addition, she also praised Xie Xun, making it impossible for Xie Xun to help him. He also borrowed the words "Knowing Eyes and Beads" to insinuate that Chen Anning's excellence is something that no one can see except the emperor. To put it more bluntly, her excellence is not even superficial!
Compared with the childish quarrel between Chen Anning and Hua Rong... Mrs. Lu took a look at Chen Anning. After all, she grew up in the countryside. Compared with the noble daughter of an aristocratic family who was carefully raised since she was a child, she was indeed more than a step behind. .
Chen Anning tilted his head and looked at her disapprovingly, "What does she have that I should care about? She quarreled with me just because she was dissatisfied with the emperor's marriage to Mr. Sir?"
Hua Jin's heart tightened.
Hua Rong looked at Xie Xun subconsciously.
Chen Anning also turned to look at him, teasingly: "Have you seen enough of Mr. Xie's liveliness? If you have seen enough, you might as well tell me, in your heart, who is more important, me or them?"
Xie Xun smiled and said without hesitation: "Of course you are important."
Chen Anning couldn't help but jump behind her eyebrows and looked at Hua Jin and Hua Rong.
Hua Jin resisted the sting in his heart and said with a smile: "Since the emperor has granted marriage to Second Miss Chen and Third Cousin, of course Second Miss Chen is the most important in Third Cousin's heart."
Chen Anning secretly clicked her tongue twice and looked at Xie Xun jokingly.
Xie Xun looked at her clear and clear eyes, which were almost free of dust. After raising his eyebrows slightly, he put down his wine glass and stood up and said: "I have read a lot of account books today. You can take a rest for two days. You can pack them up while I take care of them." You go to Washington and find your way."
"I won't go." Chen Anning refused.
Xie Xun smiled and said: "An ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her parents-in-law, so hurry up."
Chen Anning glanced at him: "Who do you think is ugly?"
Xie Xun said: "I'm ugly."
Chen Anning snorted, stood up and left.
Xie Xun nodded slightly towards Lu Deqiu, then chased after her and said: "We will set off in half an hour, pack up slowly, don't be in a hurry."
Chen Anning didn't look back.
After Hua Jin and Hua Rong also left.
Lu Wenjun and others immediately looked at Lu Deqiu and Mrs. Lu.
Lu Yueyun asked first: "Second Miss Chen has gone to Washington, do we have to go find her tomorrow?"
Mrs. Lu did not answer in a hurry, but asked first: "Tell me carefully about your interactions with her today."
Lu Wenjun opened his mouth and explained everything in detail.
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu turned to look at Lu Deqiu.
Lu Deqiu asked: "What do you think, madam?"
Mrs. Lu said: "Some are smart and know that their biggest reliance is the emperor's marriage grant."
Lu Wenjun glanced at Lu Yueyun, who was about to interrupt, and asked, "What does mother think of Mr. Xie's attitude towards her?"
Mrs. Lu smiled, "I have always heard that the third young master of Guangling Prince's Mansion is so amazing and talented. After seeing him these two days, it is true. As for his feelings for Miss Chen Er... Judging from the look in his eyes when he looked at Miss Chen Er, it should be... There is some affection, but it’s not deep.”
Lu Wenjun frowned and said: "What mother means is that Mr. Xie doesn't treat Hua Jin..."
Mrs. Lu interrupted her, "Mr. Xie should have no affection for Miss Hua, otherwise he would not be able to tolerate Miss Chen Er's verbal humiliation of Miss Hua."
"In other words, Mr. Xie prefers Miss Chen Er to Miss Hua?" Lu Wenjun asked puzzledly, "But Mr. Xie is so talented and pure, how can he fall in love with such a vulgar person as Miss Chen Er?"
Lu Deqiu said disapprovingly: "I have eaten too much delicacies from mountains and seas, so I have to eat some coarse vegetables and light rice to relieve my tiredness."
Lu Wenjun didn't understand, but he didn't go into detail. He just said, "Then should we go to Washington to find her tomorrow?"
"There's no need to go yet." Mrs. Lu said shrewdly, "Sending help in times of need is more precious than adding icing on the cake."
"Based on the performance of Miss Hua and Miss Hua tonight, I'm afraid that Miss Chen's life will not be easy when we get to Washington. After a day or two, when she has no chance to resist, you can go over and help her. , will make her cherish the 'friendship' between you even more."
Lu Wenjun nodded in agreement, but just thinking of Hua Jin, Hua Rong, and the bunch of people in Washington...she shook her head secretly in her heart.
Mother said that Mr. Xie had some affection for Miss Chen Er, but she didn't think so.
Mr. Xie really has feelings for Miss Chen Er, why would he take her to Washington?
