Because Ji Shaocheng and Lu Beichen were also protecting her, her identity became even more precious.
After a while, someone shouted loudly: "Princess Zhan is here!"
Everyone's eyes were all directed towards the door.
You must know that the War King has outstanding military exploits and is second only to the Emperor in the court. Princess Zhan became even more famous because of her favor.
But today, Ji Sangwan, the legitimate daughter of the Hou family who Ji Yunrou had been promoting everywhere because of illness, was standing next to Princess Zhan, seeming to elevate Ji Sangwan's status to a higher level all of a sudden.
Ji Sangwan's mother's family was powerful, and she was the legitimate daughter of the Hou family. She stole the show every year at the banquet, and all the princes and grandsons knew her.
Everyone is feeling regretful today, because recently, there have been more and more rumors about Ji Sangwan in the capital.
Ji Yunrou intended to ruin Ji Sangwan's reputation after leaving the Hou Mansion, so Ji Sangwan's appearance attracted even more attention.
And what Ji Sangwan wore was not ordinary brocade. It was treasured by Princess Zhan's treasurer. It was a treasure given by the emperor, not even the empress in the palace.
She just stood there and easily took away all the edge.
Ji Yunrou was fidgeting with the handkerchief with her hands, and just now she was pitifully telling the circle of young ladies that Ji Sangwan had a bad temper and left the Hou Mansion to live alone, implying that Ji Sangwan's misbehavior made even her brother tired of her. .
The next second, Ji Sangwan was so high-profile.
When Liang Han saw Ji Yunrou, he was extremely happy. He grabbed Ji Yunrou's wrist and said calmly: "Yunrou, you haven't met my mother yet. According to your seniority, you should also call my mother aunt!"
Ji Yunrou responded and walked towards Princess Zhan like a little bird.
Princess Zhan knew Ji Sangwan had been wronged a few days ago and wanted to take it out on Ji Yunrou. However, today was a grand event in the palace. Princess Zhan would restrain her temper no matter what and would not embarrass Ji Yunrou in the palace.
Why did Ji Yunrou take the initiative to come to the door?
"Yunrou has met her aunt!"
Ji Yunrou had a smile on her face, as if she was trying her best to get Princess Zhan's recognition and regain her face.
Little did they know that Princess Zhan didn't even raise her head, and stretched out her hand to straighten the strands in Ji Sang's late hair.
"Wanwan, my aunt told you not to be in a hurry. Look, your steps are crooked!"
Princess Zhan's every move and gesture showed her love for Ji Sangwan, and she completely turned a blind eye to Ji Yunrou who was kneeling on the ground.
This time did not last long, but Ji Yunrou was kneeling like this in front of everyone, and Princess Zhan ignored her. She felt very embarrassed, but she did not dare to stand up, so she could only kneel down in the same place, like a little quail. I can't even lift my head.
Ji Yunrou didn't know that she was obviously a daughter of the Hou family, so how could Princess Zhan not give her any face?
At this time, Liang Han also felt embarrassed and pulled Princess Zhan's sleeve.
"Mother, Yunrou is still greeting you. You can't let her kneel here all the time."
"Cousin, what right does Ji Yunrou have to call her aunt? If aunt agrees to her, then she really doesn't care about her own face!"
Ji Sangwan's voice was clear and clear, and he didn't look sick at all.
Liang Han was unbalanced: "Ji Sangwan, you dare to bully Yun Rou here. I'm afraid the lessons I gave you in the past few days are not enough!"
Liang Han was indignant, thinking that he had done a great good thing, but as soon as he finished speaking, Princess Zhan slapped her in the face.
"It's such a disgrace that you dare to speak arrogantly on the Queen's territory. Why don't you go back and reflect on it?"
Princess Zhan stood where she was, showing no anger or authority.
"Mother, it's obviously Ji Sangwan who is embarrassing Yunrou. They are both daughters of the Hou family. Why are you so partial to Ji Sangwan?"
Liang Han covered his painful cheek, feeling extremely aggrieved.
"Wanwan calls me aunt because she is my biological sister's only daughter. Why should I recognize this despicable girl in front of me who doesn't know where she came from?"
Ji Yunrou stood up angrily, with tears in her eyes, as if she was about to cry.
"Even if my aunt wants to protect my sister, she can't insult me like this. Although I am not as noble as my sister, I am still the daughter of the Marquis. I was fostered under the eldest lady's knees. It is also polite to call you aunt.
Yunrou knows that she is not as important as her sister, but aunt..."
Ji Yunrou was about to cry. Before she could finish her words, she was slapped hard by Ji Sangwan.
"Things that are embarrassing cannot be put on the stage. Don't slander my mother's reputation. When did my mother take you under her lap?
Everyone in the capital knows that my parents have a deep love for each other. After marrying my mother, they never took a concubine. Where did you come from? Do you need me to explain clearly? "
Ji Sangwan's words caused everyone to talk about it.
"Sister, how can you insult me like this here?"
Ji Yunrou's tears fell heavily.
Ji Sangwan frowned and wanted to slap her again.
Looking around the capital, which family would bring a foreign girl to such a banquet? Since her father and brother did this, no wonder she boldly taught Ji Yunrou a lesson.
Just as Ji Sangwan's hand was raised, it was suddenly caught.
A tall figure with a jade tree facing the wind was in front of him, appropriately protecting Ji Yunrou behind him.
"Sang Wan, you have to be merciful and merciful. With so many people watching, you don't want to lose the face of Yong'an Marquis Mansion."
The voice in front of him was clear and gentle, and Ji Sangwan raised his head. It was his uncle, the War King Liang Huaibin.
Prince Zhan was famous in the court and was extremely busy on weekdays. Ji Sangwan rarely saw him. When I was young, I felt that he was as gentle as jade in front of my aunt, and he was a good talker.
But now, although the War King's tone was gentle and calm, a sense of oppression came with it, making Ji Sangwan have to be stunned for a moment.
"Husband, you are here too."
Princess Zhan walked to King Zhan with a smile and glanced at Ji Yunrou displeasedly.
"Don't get angry over irrelevant people. Since your sister-in-law has married into the Hou family, you have to give the Hou family some face. Don't be childish like Sang Wan.
Yue'er, you are already an elder! "
The King of War naturally put his arm on his wife's shoulders and rubbed her ears together.
Although Princess Zhan has a straightforward personality, she will also give Prince War face outside.
Princess Zhan immediately took Ji Sangwan's hand. Ji Sangwan would not suffer from today's matter, so they agreed.
"Wanwan, let's go and sit at the Huxin Pavilion for a while. We hurried over here. Now I'm a little thirsty!"
Ji Sangwan agreed and walked towards the Huxin Pavilion with Princess Zhan one behind the other. Lu Beichen and Ji Shaocheng immediately surrounded him, concerned about Ji Yunrou's situation.
The King of War just glanced back, without saying a word to Ji Yunrou. He whispered a few words to Liang Han in a low voice and left in a hurry.
Ji Sangwan fell into deep thought again. She wanted to save her aunt, but she was not sure that the poisoning was related to her uncle.
She didn't know why she thought of this. Before she could think of anything else, the Queen arrived.
