Leng Lanzhi played with the fine jade pendant around his waist. Hearing this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Zhao: "Shen Lin'an ate two crabs that day and wanted to eat a third one. I just tried to dissuade him with good words, and the child... He kept crying and said that my adoptive mother treated him harshly.
Mother-in-law, after you arrived, you scolded me indiscriminately. Even if I gave an explanation, you didn't believe that I was doing it for his own good. You also said that I was clever and coquettish, saying that even though I was a princess, I couldn't care about human relations or treat my children harshly. . "
Her beautiful eyebrows were slightly raised, and there was a smile on her beautiful face, but it was inexplicable that people didn't dare to look down on her: "Mother-in-law, won't you forget all this?"
Zhao hesitated: "This..."
Leng Lanzhi's voice was lazy: "My mother-in-law asked me to take charge of it. How do you plan to let me take charge of it?"
Mrs. Zhao felt weak after being asked, and she became angry after being so weak: "Are you questioning me? Is this the way you talk to your mother-in-law?"
Shen Yizhi on the side had already understood.
It turned out that it wasn't that Leng Lanzhi didn't care, but that her mother was blocking her and she couldn't control it.
But he doesn't think this is his mother's problem.
As a princess of a country, if the young mistress of the Hou family doesn't even have this ability, what kind of princess is she worthy of being? What kind of young mistress should you be?
So he didn't speak, but looked at Leng Lanzhi with cold eyes, full of condemnation.
Leng Lanzhi naturally felt the reproach in his eyes.
There was a sting in her heart, and she just felt ironic.
When she was young, her mother often told her that her future prince-in-law didn’t need to have high status or outstanding talents, as long as he was sincerely good to you and really had her at the forefront of his heart.
The queen mother also said that although Shen Yizhi was talented and famous, there was no love in his eyes when he looked at her. If she insisted on marrying him, she would have to endure hardships in the future.
She didn't believe it then.
He is the most famous young man of the Shen family!
Even if there is no love in the heart, there is still reason and restraint.
She believes that as long as she respects her parents-in-law and treats him well after marriage, he will feel her kindness sooner or later.
Only now did she understand that her mother was right.
Some people's hearts are cold, their blood is cold, and they cannot be melted.
Some people are not blind, but they are selectively blind.
She suddenly lost interest.
Suddenly, a voice as clear as jade sounded: "How bold! How dare you despise the princess! Someone, push this old woman down!"
Gu Zhan's unparalleled handsome face was as cold as a thousand-year-old glacier, and his dark eyes were like the deep gaze of an abyssal beast that chooses to devour people. Looking into his eyes, Zhao felt as if her liver and gallbladder were splitting.
The two Jinxing guards entered the dining room quietly and walked towards Zhao with expressionless faces.
Zhao's face instantly lost all color: "How dare you! I am Mrs. Pingnanhou! Who dares to touch me!"
Gu Zhan's lips raised a sarcastic arc: "Who is Mrs. Pingnanhou? Can she be as powerful as the first-class princess of the current dynasty?"
Leng Lanzhi was a little surprised. He didn't expect Gu Zhan to be so unwilling.
After a moment of surprise, she didn't say anything more and just continued to play with the jade pendant around her waist.
Seeing that the two Jinxing guards were about to capture the Zhao family, Marquis Pingnan couldn't sit still. He quickly stood up and said with a false smile: "Gu Diansi, you have something to say! You have something to say!"
Shen Yizhi stood in front of Zhao and looked at Leng Lanzhi: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Leng Lanzhi had a puzzled look on his face: "I'm afraid the prince-in-law has stayed out for six years, and everyone is dumbfounded. The person who wants to punish my mother-in-law is Gu Diansi, what does this have to do with me?"
She slightly raised her lips: "What's more, my mother-in-law was punished because she despised the emperor's authority. Gu Diansi is right. As a princess of a prosperous country, I should set an example and not cover up."
What a good person who can't do anything to cover up!
Shen Yi's face was as sinking as water.
It was clear that as long as she spoke a word, the matter could be resolved painlessly, but she insisted on taking Qiao!
She clearly wanted to force him to bow his head!
Force him to pamper her!
Ah!
He will bow his head.
But he bowed to the supreme imperial power, not to her Leng Lanzhi!
He will not pamper her even more!
How could he be blind in the first place and think that this woman was so similar to his Jiaoer?
Such a vicious-hearted woman can't even compare to one of Jiao'er's toes!
He looked at Leng Lanzhi coldly, and suddenly clasped his fists and saluted: "My mother doesn't understand the rules of the court, and she is too old to be frightened. I am willing to be punished on my mother's behalf. Please show mercy to the princess."
He knows who is really in charge today.
Although that Gu Zhan is a mad dog, he is not as knowledgeable as a housewife.
What happened today was just what Leng Lanzhi ordered Gu Zhan to do in order to give him, the husband, a chance to show off!
Again.
He will compromise under the imperial power, but never let him compromise with a woman like Leng Lanzhi!
Leng Lanzhi saw the turbulent unwillingness in his eyes and smiled slightly: "The prince-in-law made a mistake."
Shen Yizhi frowned.
Leng Lanzhi said indifferently: "I have never thought of holding my mother-in-law accountable. It is Master Gu who wants to maintain the principle of respect and inferiority, and my mother-in-law just doesn't understand dignity and is reckless and shameless."
Do you understand?
It was because your mother committed a crime that she was punished, not because I wanted to torture her.
The person in charge is Mr. Gu, not this princess.
Shen Yizhi gritted his back teeth and tightened his cheeks, but he had to turn to Gu Zhan: "Master Gu, please forgive my mother for not understanding the affairs of the court. I promise that this will never happen again in the future." Such a thing."
The tall man suddenly bent down and said softly and respectfully: "Princess, do you see?"
Shen Yizhi: "!!"
There was a smile in Leng Lan's eyes, but there was still a condensed look on his face: "Since the prince-in-law knows his mistake, let's stop here. Thank you for your hard work, Gu Diansi."
"Yes, princess."
Gu Zhan looked at Shen Yizhi indifferently: "Since the princess will not pursue it, let's forget about today's matter for the time being." His eyes gradually became fierce: "If the Bendian Secretary knows again that someone is interested in our noble and unparalleled Jia Princess Luo is disrespectful, even if that person is the consort himself, this Dian Secretary will still arrest him!"
After Gu Zhan left, the atmosphere in the Hou Mansion became very strange.
Leng Lanzhi didn't seem to feel it, so she got up and walked out of the dining room.
Shen Yizhi watched her figure drifting away coldly, his eyes getting colder and colder.
Mrs. Zhao looked like she had been fished out of the water, dripping with sweat: "That Gu Diansi, he's so scary!"
Shen Yizhi looked away and frowned slightly.
He didn't expect that Gu Zhan's mad dog who didn't recognize any of his relatives not only knew Leng Lanzhi, but also listened to her words.
What is the relationship between these two people?
Could it be that during the years when he was away from Beijing, she had been hanging out with that mad dog in private?
The thought of this possibility made him feel extremely sick.
Mrs. Zhao was frightened and had to say something to vent her anger. She couldn't help but ramble: "This daughter-in-law is too much! She should not have been allowed in in the first place!"
Shen Yizhi frowned slightly.
On the side, Marquis Pingnan scolded: "Okay, what do you, a woman, know?"
"Why didn't I know? If An'er's mother were my daughter-in-law, she would never contradict me!"
Shen Yi's heart moved.
An'er's mother.
