Chu Yunfei had no time to pay attention to Jiang Ying's thoughts and walked directly to the west hall. Several princesses gathered around her and congratulated her happily:
"Congratulations to Sister-in-law Ninth!"
"Congratulations to the ninth brother and sister!"
Even Rong Jinyue did not dare to be as hostile to Chu Yunfei as before, but cautiously showed her kindness: "Sister-in-law Ninth, it was me who did not know what is good and what is wrong in the past. I hope that Sister-in-law Ninth will not remember the faults of villains. Forgive me." I was young and ignorant.”
Chu Yunfei glanced at her lightly.
She and Rong Jinyue had never been friendly. These days, the status of the fifth princess had plummeted. She had suffered a lot at the hands of the upbringing nanny. From those days of learning the rules, she was deeply aware of the bad situation of the imperial concubine. So I humbly apologized.
Chu Yunfei knew that her apology was not sincere, so she did not generously say that it was okay, but just hummed.
After all, if the situation turns around in the future, Rong Jinyue will only come back with revenge tenfold, and there is no way she will change her attitude just because she was friendly today.
"The fifth princess has learned a lot lately." She smiled lightly, "She looks completely different from before."
Rong Jinyue froze and turned slightly pale.
The methods used to educate the nuns in the palace are simply unacceptable. How dare she not learn to behave?
However, what Chu Yunfei said made people feel heartbroken.
Isn't it just that I was lucky enough to marry a prince who could fight? What's so great about her, why should I speak to her in such a condescending tone?
When the mother-in-law favored the Sixth Palace, she was a noble and distinguished princess with unlimited glory. At that time, Chu Yunfei, as the daughter of the Minister of Chu, was not even qualified to drink tea with her.
As a daughter-in-law, her mother-in-law didn't like her. She didn't think of any way to please her mother-in-law, but instead tried her best to please the queen.
Sooner or later, there will come a day when she won't be able to laugh anymore for such a villain who is so greedy for profit.
"Congratulations to Princess Zhan." Qin Zhilan stood up, her eyebrows slightly lowered, "I was a little disrespectful with my words before, but I still wish to see Princess Zhan Haihan."
Disrespectful words?
It should be right.
Chu Yunfei looked calm: "It doesn't matter, I don't take it to heart."
Qin Zhilan looked slightly stiff, then sat down, lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea.
Good thing I didn't take it to heart.
The aloof Princess Zhan does have the qualifications not to take others into consideration at the moment.
"The Ninth Brothers and Sisters are now in great glory, and their status has risen. It's really enviable." Princess Chen said insincerely, "These days, I am still worrying about my mother and concubine day and night. I didn't expect that the Ninth Brothers and Sisters would make the Queen so happy. It's really surprising. .”
Chu Yunfei looked calm: "A hot face cannot stick to a cold butt. The imperial concubine does not like Rong Cang, which proves that Rong Cang and her have a weak relationship, and you cannot force such things as fate."
Jiang Ying's expression paused, and then she smiled sarcastically: "Is it possible that the King of War and the Queen are closely related?"
"It's unknown whether the relationship is deep, but the Queen's wisdom is definitely real." Chu Yun Fei's eyebrows showed a cold look, "Rong Cang can win battles on the battlefield, investigate cases off the battlefield, and his martial arts and strategies are unmatched in the court. Like King Chen, he is full of dirty thoughts and only plots against his own brothers."
"You!" Princess Chen's face turned green, "Chu Yunfei, even if you have the Queen's favor, you can humiliate people like this?"
"What does the Sixth Emperor's Wife mean by this?" Chu Yunfei seemed puzzled, "I'm just stating the facts, right?"
"No matter what, all parents in the world are bad." Princess Chen frowned, unable to hide the condemnation in her eyes, "Even if you think the Queen is good, you should first seek the consent of the mother and concubine. After all, the mother and concubine is the biological mother of the King of War. She is your biological mother-in-law, how can you erase the kindness of raising her?"
When Chu Yunfei heard this, he looked at her with a half-smile.
"What are you looking at?" Princess Chen was a little embarrassed, "Isn't what I said the truth?"
Chu Yunfei suddenly came close to her ear, lowered her voice and said, "Jiang Ying, I don't want to argue with you. If you continue to be unjust, I don't mind letting Qian Qi come out to see my father."
Princess Chen turned white, and the blood faded from her face little by little. She looked at Chu Yunfei in shock. She didn't expect that she was holding a Qianqi in her hand to threaten them.
Chu Yunfei spoke in a low voice. Others only saw Princess Chen's face turn pale in an instant, but they didn't know the reason why her face turned pale.
Several princesses glanced at Princess Chen, but were not curious about it.
There are some things they shouldn't be involved in. The more they know, the less good it will be for them.
After Chu Yunfei said this, regardless of Princess Chen's expression, she looked away and turned to look at Xie Danshu who was standing not far away.
Meeting her gaze, Xie Danshu smiled: "Congratulations, Princess."
Chu Yunfei walked up to her and sat down with her: "It's a little early to say congratulations."
Right now it's just an adoption, it's not yet time for mother and son to officially recognize each other.
Chu Yunfei's eyes fell on the main hall. The concubines were still accompanying the queen and saying some words of congratulations. In the east hall, King Chen's face seemed to be covered with a layer of haze. Everyone in the west hall here also had their own thoughts.
Prince Chen and his wife felt unfair, envied Rong Cang's good luck, and hated him for adopting the queen as his mother for the sake of the throne. Didn't even the important officials in the court who followed him to the Qinzheng Hall to discuss matters not have some ideas?
Some people may think that Rong Cang should at least hesitate. They must be thinking that a filial son should not abandon his mother so easily.
The King of War has always been unyielding and should have his own perseverance and pride.
But who knew, it was precisely because he knew that his biological mother was the queen that Rong Cang recognized her so easily.
The truth is still unclear, so I don’t blame them for thinking this way.
Chu Yunfei thought silently that the day when the truth about Rong Cang's life experience would be revealed would be the time to say congratulations.
And this day shouldn't be too far away.
"Princess Zhan." A gentle voice suddenly interrupted Chu Yunfei's thoughts, "Congratulations."
Chu Yunfei turned around and met Mrs. Xie's eyes that seemed to understand. The corner of her mouth raised slightly: "Mrs. Xie."
Mrs. Xie looked calm: "I have something I want to talk to the princess alone."
"Mother?" Xie Danshu was puzzled.
Chu Yunfei patted her hand, stood up and said, "My wife and I will go to the small garden behind for a stroll."
Mrs. Xie nodded, ignored the curious glances from the side, stood up, and walked out with Chu Yunfei.
"As expected, people are all seeking profit." Rong Jinyue looked at the two people leaving with a sarcastic smile on her lips, "I remember that Mrs. Brother Nine Emperors, she can’t wait to get close to Sister-in-law Nine.”
Xie Danshu said calmly: "The fifth princess is right. After all, two months ago, the fifth princess had always had a arrogant attitude in front of Princess Zhan. She never took the emperor's sister-in-law seriously. Just now she didn't take the initiative to apologize in a low voice. ?"
Rong Jinyue's face turned green, and she instinctively wanted to get angry, but when she was about to speak, she suddenly realized her situation and swallowed back her angry words.
She glared at Xie Danshu coldly, lowered her head and drank her tea.
Xie Danshu didn't understand her, and frowned slightly. She looked up at the direction where her mother and Princess Zhan left, feeling puzzled.
What important matter did mother and Princess Zhan have to talk about alone and away from others?
