Not only Mrs. Zhao is confused, but many people are also confused: "Isn't today the day when the princess officially recognizes the young master? Why hasn't the young master come yet?"
It was the Prime Minister's wife who spoke.
Leng Lanzhi also looked at the greeting with some confusion: "Mother-in-law, where is An'er?"
Zhao frowned: "He was still there when I first came here... I guess he went to play with friends, right?"
Ms. Zhao felt that according to the playful nature of children, it was nothing for Shen Linan to go play with other laughing friends.
But the people in the room frowned when they heard it.
On an occasion like today, Shen Lin'an, as the absolute protagonist, cannot leave the princess's side.
Even if you want to play, you have to wait until the princess recognizes you before you go, right?
Now that the banquet has begun and the princess is about to introduce everyone, the protagonist Shen Linan is missing?
This is not only disrespectful to my aunt!
It is also disrespectful to the princess!
What are the people in Pingnanhou Mansion doing?
Everyone looked at Ms. Zhao with more and more contempt.
Leng Lanzhi seemed to sigh, showed an inclusive smile, and smoothed things over: "An'er is still young and has never experienced such a grand occasion. It's understandable."
All the wives could only nod: "Yes, it's a child..."
Zhao: "..."
She just said that children are playful, and these people looked at her as if they were looking at some monster.
Leng Lanzhi said that children are playful, but these people agree?
Don't be too double-standard, okay?
Before she could get angry, Leng Lanzhi asked gently: "Mother-in-law, does she know where An'er went to play? Everyone is waiting to see him!"
Ms. Zhao was angry, but she had to endure it and replied firmly: "It shouldn't be too far. I'll ask someone to look for him right now."
Leng Lanzhi nodded slightly: "Xiaorou, you can go too."
Xiaorou responded: "Yes."
Soon, Xiaorou followed several maids, wives and servants to look for Shen Lin'an.
The atmosphere at the banquet was still warm.
Although it was not a formal banquet, due to the security of men and women, several screens were used to separate the men's and women's seats.
Some of the male guests could no longer hold themselves back and wanted to get close to Gu Zhan.
After all, it was Gu Diansi who held great power and even dared to teach His Highness the Crown Prince a lesson in person. Although he was selfless and iron-blooded, it would be beneficial to his future if he could be related to him.
Gu Diansi seemed to be very talkative today. He did not offend the ministers who came to toast them.
In the female guest seats, many little girls were looking around. If you observe carefully, you will find that the direction they are looking at is the frontmost direction of the male seats.
Although there are screens blocking the view, most banquets have the same layout for men and women, and even the food on the table is the same. The only difference is that there are more drinks at the men's table, and more drinks at the women's table. many.
Countless little girls looked forward to it.
Although Gu Diansi has a bad reputation, he is really good-looking.
And he holds great power.
Rights are a man's best betrothal gift.
It's a pity that Mr. Noriji, who was stared at by countless ladies in the boudoir, focused his eyes the most on the room with the most noble person in the world.
If he didn't want to cause trouble to her, he would really like to stand behind her and protect her like he did that day...
Tsk, the Prince Consort and Ping Nanhou Mansion are really annoying.
If he were in the palace, outside, or even in the princess's mansion, why would he need to worry so much?
The man thought and lowered his eyes.
inside the house.
A newly married woman smiled and said: "Zhenbao Pavilion has recently launched a lot of new jewelry. Among them is a set of Phoenix's head and face, which is very beautiful! It is inlaid with 128 South China Sea pearls. The gold used to make the Phoenix alone is It’s so heavy, I don’t know how many people are greedy for it!”
Leng Lanzhi became interested: "Oh? I have also heard of that mask. Which lady or lady did it end up in?"
The lady sighed with regret: "The boss of Zhenbao Pavilion said that he only sells it to people with a predestined relationship, so the set of noodles is still in the display cabinet on the third floor."
Leng Lanzhi followed her words: "I don't know who is so lucky to get such a face in the future."
Jewelry, jewelry, and beautiful clothes are the eternal topics of conversation for women at banquets.
Leng Lanzhi didn't need to join the discussion. He only needed to give an occasional response so that these ladies could have a lively discussion.
Ms. Zhao became increasingly speechless.
It has only been more than 20 years since the Pingnan Marquis Mansion was established. The ancestors of the old Marquis were eight generations of poor peasants. The current generation of Pingnan Marquis also came from poor families. Only Shen Yizhi's generation can be regarded as a serious nobleman.
But how can nobles raised by uncultivated families compare with ladies and ladies who have been nobles for generations?
This is also the reason why Mrs. Zhao is not popular with those ladies.
After all, her status is neither above nor below, which is too embarrassing.
They had nothing in common with her and couldn't talk together at all.
But if you keep her cold...she is the princess's mother-in-law.
They were not afraid of her, but they could not help but be wary of the princess.
Zhao looked at Leng Lanzhi, who could get in on any topic, and at the ladies who were led by her, and felt as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly.
That's all, he endured it for the sake of his good grandson!
It won't take long for her sweet grandson to become the kind of master who can talk to anyone.
Suddenly, Xiaorou walked in hurriedly, followed by several maids and women.
Everyone in the room could tell at a glance that these were the people responsible for going out to find the young master.
Now these people look different. Could it be that there is something wrong with the young master?
Gu Zhan glanced at the leader Xiaorou, raised his lips and lowered his eyes.
It was worth waiting for him for so long, the show was finally about to begin.
she……
Have you been waiting for a long time?
Leng Lanzhi saw that Xiaorou looked wrong and asked, "Where is the young master? Why do you look like this?"
Xiaorou looked embarrassed: "Princess, the young master, he...he..."
"What happened? Could it be that something happened to the young master?" Leng Lanzhi's voice suddenly dropped.
Xiaorou knelt down: "Nothing happened to the young masters, but he..." Xiaorou hesitated again, but gritted her teeth and said: "He found his biological mother!"
"What?" Leng Lanzhi exclaimed.
Xiaorou's voice was not small, and everyone close to the room heard it.
There are no seats for men or women.
For a moment, everyone showed surprised expressions.
If they remembered correctly, when the prince-in-law brought the young master back, he seemed to have said that the young master was the child he accidentally rescued from the frontier.
Then, his parents should also be from the border.
Now he appears in Shengjing?
No matter how you think about it, it feels unreasonable.
Leng Lanzhi also showed a puzzled expression: "An'er's biological mother is in Shengjing? And she came to the Hou Mansion?"
The color on Zhao's face suddenly faded away.
