The graceful, dignified, noble lady in every gesture raised her hand and gently touched the forearm of her personal maid, Cui'er, and slowly stepped out of the carriage.
But from beginning to end, even though it was wrapped around him, not a single sound was heard. Even the gold wire inlaid with eight treasures and pearls on the head, as well as the southern pearls, only trembled slightly twice.
With a steady pace, the dress embroidered with gold and colorful colors reflected the bright sunlight, creating layers of dazzling light waves following every move of the Duke and his wife.
Aunt Feng didn't need to be summoned. She already half-bent and hurriedly came to the Duke's wife. After bowing respectfully, she stood up and said:
"You came at the right time. The princess was so bold half an hour ago..."
Mrs. Zhen Guogong raised her hand and neatly cut off what Nanny Feng had not finished saying. At the same time, she said lightly:
"When has she ever followed the rules? And when has she not been bold? Even if she goes out of her way now, she is still in the princess's mansion, so there is no need for Mom to be so impatient."
The Duke's wife said as she started to move forward. Although the pace seems to be leisurely, the speed is actually not slow.
When Grandma Feng saw this, she secretly thought, I wonder who is so anxious now?
However, when facing the Duke of Zhenguo's wife, she really dared not speak out in anger.
"...that's what Madam said."
Aunt Feng responded in vain, took two quick steps without any instructions, and began to lead the way for Mrs. Zhen Guo in a warm and considerate manner.
The group of people rushed straight to Mingxia Residence, as if they were in a deserted place.
Naturally, there were servants from the princess's mansion encountered on the way, but not to mention those who came to stop them, not one of them even came forward to ask more questions. There were even people who were originally walking in the opposite direction, but after seeing it, they immediately stayed away from each other.
Soon after her marriage, Mrs. Zhenguo was trusted by Danyang's grandmother, now the Dowager, and she took charge of the huge Zhenguo Palace until now.
It goes without saying that the Duke's Mansion under his rule is in perfect order, and the rules both internally and externally are strict.
Not to mention the foreign visitors who come to visit, even if relatives occasionally go to the Duke's Mansion, they can't come and go at will.
On the other hand, the Princess Mansion, which doesn't even have any elders, and doesn't even need to socialize with the sisters-in-law or relatives, just closes the door and can live their own lives freely, is really unorganized to the extreme, and there is no dignity at all.
Huh, that useless princess who only had a good pregnancy, not only has a dull and unpleasant temperament, but is also in such poor health that she can't even handle the princess mansion with such a simple population.
Tsk tsk, living is really not as clean as death.
The Duke's wife kept looking around with disdainful eyes.
But her originally stiff and cold expression was due to the fact that her energy and blood were finally flowing smoothly after going through this journey? Still, my mood gradually improved, and my face became rosy.
However, when she could see the courtyard gate of Mingxia Residence, the countenance of the Duke's wife immediately darkened again.
"What's going on? Huh?"
Along the way, Grandma Feng walked with her head bowed to show her respect, and focused all her attention on the Duke's wife behind her.
This sudden, cold question immediately made her feet tremble in confusion. At the same time, he raised his head to look at the Duke's wife, then followed her gaze and looked in front of him.
Huh?
Aunt Feng originally thought she could drive straight in and deliver the Duke's wife directly to Princess Qinghe. But who could have imagined that the courtyard gate of Mingxia Residence was actually closed tightly in this clear day!
In other words, if the Duke's wife goes all the way to the end like this, she will definitely be blocked from the door. In other words, she is trying to keep the current Duke of Zhenguo away from home!
As soon as Grandma Feng thought of this, a layer of sweat broke out on her forehead.
She didn't dare to think too much at this time. She could only turn around immediately and hurriedly apologized to the Duke's wife:
"I made an oversight and didn't send anyone to make preparations before coming. Please wait here, Madam. I'll come back as soon as I go."
After finishing her words, she waited until a soft "hmm" sound came from above her head, then Nanny Feng stood up quickly and quickly ran to the front door of Mingxia Residence.
"Open the door!"
Bang, bang, bang, bang...
Nanny Feng called the door and banged the black wooden door loudly.
If it weren't for this moment, the rest of the crowd would have avoided it. Most people in the princess's residence would be shocked and stunned when they saw this scene.
In the past, when she was working as a steward in the princess's mansion, Nanny Feng, who was as arrogant as other old ladies, actually had such a panicked and anxious side.
Nanny Feng also knew that there were nefarious people watching in the darkness around her at this moment. This scene would inevitably fall into the eyes of others and would probably be spread around in the future.
But at this moment, she didn't have time to worry so much.
And as long as she follows her plan and lets Mrs. Zhen Guo take over the eldest princess Qinghe, then she will definitely get all the power of the princess palace. Who will dare to talk about it then? Then wait to be torn apart by her!
Because of the anxiety in her heart, Nanny Feng's men lost their usual sense of propriety, and it seemed that they wanted to smash the courtyard door with their bare hands.
At this moment, when she was lowering her fist with all her strength, the black wooden door in front of her opened with a creak without any warning!
Aunt Feng was unable to hold back her strength, and her whole body fell directly into the door under the inertia.
At the same time, the person who opened the door in front actually reached out and grabbed her!
It is conceivable that with the combination of the two forces, Nanny Feng was almost unstoppable and fell into the threshold in an instant.
Then, there was another "clang" behind her, a deafening muffled sound.
"Don't close it, close it!"
Grandma Feng didn't care about her waist, which she was almost hit by. Almost as soon as the sound came, she jumped up from the ground, turned around and rushed towards the backyard door behind her.
The next moment she acted, she finally saw clearly that behind the door were three maids who had been prepared and were blocking the door.
And at first glance, the face seems a bit familiar? It feels like I've only seen it recently.
But at the moment, she had no time to think about this. Seeing that her old arms and legs were not able to support the other side, Nanny Feng immediately stopped and said angrily to the maids blocking the door:
"Who allowed you to close the courtyard door during the day! Are there any rules anymore? I see that all of you are itchy, so I will open the door now! If you neglect the distinguished guests and lose the etiquette of the princess palace, I will see if I peel your skin off. Skin!"
After finishing speaking, the three maids in front of them still had expressionless faces, and their feet seemed to have taken root, not moving at all.
Grandma Feng frowned fiercely and asked sternly:
"Which courtyard do you guys belong to? You are so brave!"
And this sentence also received no response from the other party.
But before she could get mad, a gentle voice that sounded like a smile came from behind, saying:
"Mommy, calm down, they were brought back from outside by the princess. No one else can give them orders except the princess."
