After Princess Fengrong and Princess Rui arrived, everyone in the cabinet focused their attention on them, and no one paid any attention to Huang Tingshan's embarrassing incident.
But Huang Tingshan didn't think so. Whenever there were people whispering to each other, she felt they were talking about her. Whenever someone laughed, she felt they were laughing at her.
The embroidered ridge under her butt seemed to have thorns, making her unable to sit still.
He even felt that everyone around him was watching his own joke and secretly laughing at himself.
Huang Tingshan's expression kept changing, but her ears were still perked up masochistically, trying to catch every word that Princess Fengrong said to Shen Tianshu.
"You look much better than the last time I saw you."
It seems like they are really old acquaintances?
"It's okay for you to go home. Why don't you stay in Wuchang Mansion for a longer time this time and come over often to keep me company?"
I have come to the palace to visit the concubine several times, but the concubine has never said such intimate words, and she has never even said politely that she will come again.
Who is Shen Tianshu that he knows the concubine so well?
Before she could figure out the reason, Princess Rui also said, "Don't worry about home. I'll ask someone to deliver a message to your house later. Just tell me."
Huang Tingshan felt extremely sour after hearing this, and even there seemed to be a vague sour taste in her mouth. It was such a good thing to be close to the prince, and it was too late for the Shen family to be happy. Could they still refuse?
How could Shen Tianshu win the favor of the concubine and the princess? He had always tried hard to make the concubine happy and followed the concubine's wishes, but he still couldn't keep up with Shen who refused to say a few words. Tianshu!
Princess Fengrong didn't have time to think about what Huang Tingshan was thinking. There were so many people visiting her every day. If she didn't want to give the imperial concubine some face, she wouldn't even want to see the Huang family's mother and daughter.
However, the imperial concubine's face is only worth so much, and it is not enough for her to take the initiative to express her closeness.
What's more, anyone with a discerning eye can tell the thoughts of the Huang family's mother and daughter. Although she is old, she is not an old fool. How could she marry such a thing to her only grandson?
The Crown Princess will be the mistress of the palace from now on, and Huang Tingshan's character is far from her.
What's more, this banquet was not about choosing a wife for Li Zian, it was originally about Shen Tianshu, and the others were simply foils.
Now that it has been confirmed that Shen Tianshu is Lady Tong, the others are naturally less important.
Concubine Fengrong sat in the Xinlai Pavilion for a while, which gave all the female family members face, and then she was ready to leave.
"Old sister, we are too old to be as young as them. We are too stiff and tired in front of others. You can come with me to the back to rest for a while."
Chen Lao Fengjun understood what Concubine Fengrong meant and stood up and said, "I would like to thank you, Concubine Fengrong, for your consideration. I'm getting older and I can't stand sitting for a long time."
Concubine Fengrong was about to stand up. Naturally, others did not dare to sit down. Everyone in the pavilion stood up and prepared to see off the concubine.
Unexpectedly, after Princess Fengrong stood up, she reached out and grabbed Shen Tianshu's hand and said, "Girl Shen, you come with us too, just to play with Zihan for a while, so that she won't keep talking about you."
Shen Tianshu knew that Concubine Fengrong probably wanted him to treat Chen Lao Fengjun, but if he left...
She looked back worriedly at the corner where Shen Yunhui was sitting.
Seeing this, Princess Rui quickly said: "Miss Shen came with her sister, right? Don't worry, just follow the concubine and ask her to come to me. I will take care of you here!"
Hearing this, Fang Fu hurriedly led the somewhat panicked Shen Yunhui forward, until he walked to Princess Rui.
Shen Yunhui didn't expect that she would be so close to the concubine and the princess. She was so nervous that her upper and lower lips felt like they were stuck together. She almost forgot to salute and say hello.
Shen Tianshu winked at her, and she quickly knelt down and saluted.
When Princess Fengrong saw Fangfu, she immediately smiled and said to the princess: "You are still worried about others. Look, Zian is still thoughtful and sent his personal maid to accompany him a long time ago."
Princess Rui was also a little surprised. Although her son was very attentive in handling political affairs, it was rare to see him be so attentive to others, especially a young girl.
Looking at Shen Tianshu's pretty face, Mrs. Guo couldn't help but feel a little in her heart. Could it be that her son was actually tempted?
But thinking that Shen Tianshu might be able to help the prince's condition, Guo was immediately relieved.
There is no doubt about Li Zian's filial piety towards Prince Rui. For this matter, he has been traveling around a lot in the past few years. Whenever he hears about a famous doctor somewhere, he will invite him to treat Prince Rui regardless of the distance.
Now that Shen Tianshu has real abilities, it is obviously logical for Li Zian to take more care of her.
But after hearing this, everyone else in the pavilion couldn't help but look at Huang Tingshan secretly.
Everyone could hear clearly what Huang Tingshan was saying to Fang Fu just now.
Previously, everyone thought that Fang Fu was Shen Tianshu's maid. Some people thought that it was too much for the Shen sisters to bring three maids with them. Others only brought one maid into the house.
However, no one expected that Fang Fu was not Shen Tianshu's maid at all, but the personal maid of the Crown Prince Li Zian.
Huang Tingshan froze completely.
There was only one thought in her mind at this time - it was over.
He actually yelled at the prince's maid, scolding her for being unruly and uncultured, and saying that as many masters as there are servants.
As long as Fang Fu goes back and talks about it, how could the prince still have any affection for her? It would be better if she doesn't ask people to drive her out of the palace.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was really dead.
"Mom, I, I'm not feeling well, let's go back..." Huang Tingshan said in a very small voice.
Yuanshi had no idea that her daughter had not only scolded Fang Fu, but also brought Li Zian with her. She just thought that she was still minding the embarrassing thing she had done before. She was about to offer some words of advice when she turned around and realized that Huang Tingshan was in a state of disgrace. It's really not right.
Her face was pale, her lips were much lighter than before, and there was a thin layer of cold sweat on her forehead.
Yuanshi took Huang Tingshan's hand and found that her hands were cold and her palms were even clammy.
This was obviously really uncomfortable, not just an act.
"Tingshan, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Yuan's voice was very loud, and Princess Fengrong, who was about to leave, naturally heard it clearly.
But she didn't even pause, and left Xinlai Pavilion with Chen Lao Fengjun and Shen Tianshu.
Watching Princess Fengrong leave, Huang Tingshan's little heart, which was already riddled with holes, was hit hard again. As soon as her vision went dark, she fainted in Yuanshi's arms.
