Cen Yurong was stunned, as if she had been struck by lightning.
Seeing the expressions of everyone around her change, Liang Qianqian couldn't help but take a few steps back, "What happened? My grandmother has not recovered from a serious illness. How could she go to someone else's house to be a guest? She doesn't like to give gifts. People are causing trouble!"
Cen Yurong saw Xiao Junlan looking over, and she couldn't help but raise her voice, "Miss Liang, stop joking. If the Duke's wife hadn't promised, how could you be here?"
She couldn't believe it. Could it be that she was being played by Liang Qianqian?
"I took two days off to come and get my notes from Jin'er! Did the princess misunderstand something?"
The movement here had already attracted the guests inside, and she immediately heard a burst of whispers.
"It turns out that the prince is going to entertain people from the Duke's Palace and Prince Pingnan's Palace. No wonder he prepared so carefully!"
"But it's too strange. Your Majesty has always been thrifty. Look at the vases, calligraphy and paintings, you shouldn't..."
These words sounded unabashedly sour.
What's more, they began to suspect that the diligent and frugal style of the wise king was not just an act!
It seems that there are no distinguished guests at all, but the Xian King and Xian Princess have made them wait for so long in vain because of such a misunderstanding!
This shows what?
It shows that they are not noticed at all!
Cen Yurong felt her hands and feet were cold, and there was a bang in her head, and she didn't know what to do.
"Miss Liang, I'll give you some notes." Nanny Huang had already hurried to find Song Jin'er. Now she came out and looked around strangely.
"Jin'er, you know, right? Why didn't you tell the prince in advance? Could it be that you wanted to embarrass the prince and let others see our jokes?" Cen Yurong almost lost her mind. This was the first time she had reprimanded in public. Song Jin'er.
"I don't understand what you mean. Aunt Huang asked me before, and I also told her that Miss Liang never told me about coming as a guest."
There was no emotion on Song Jin'er's face, and this expression made it even more obvious that Cen Yurong was the one making trouble without reason!
Aunt Huang's eyes flashed, and she lowered her head tremblingly in the sight of Xiao Junlan.
"Preparations started in the mansion this morning. You obviously have many opportunities to resolve this misunderstanding!"
They must have colluded just to make her a clown!
Song Jin'er glanced at Cen Yurong impatiently, as if she was too lazy to explain, but Xiao Junlan was the first to speak, "Let the guests take their seats. I had planned to entertain the two adults earlier."
His voice sounded extremely calm, but Cen Yurong's pupils were filled with endless fear.
Song Jin'er was usually taciturn in the house. She always shut herself in the room and ignored what was going on outside the window.
In Cen Yurong's view, her identity was fundamentally unacceptable, so he deliberately isolated her and made her a marginalized person in the house.
Now, Cen Yurong blamed Song Jin'er for not stopping her from preparing for the banquet, which was really making things difficult for her.
"Jin'er, I'll explain it to you later." Liang Qianqian lowered her voice and said in Song Jin'er's ear. She just nodded, but she wasn't angry in her heart.
Even if Liang Qianqian told her the truth from the beginning, Cen Yurong would not believe her.
Song Jin'er didn't understand the stakes, so she didn't take it seriously.
…
Liang Qianqian is playing tricks on her!
The Duke's wife actually helped Liang Qianqian play tricks on her!
And the old princess, they were colluding from the beginning!
After the entire guest banquet, Cen Yurong's mind was filled with only boundless anger and anxiety before the violent storm.
Even when several ladies said goodbye to her, they had the idea of letting them leave later.
The originally bustling house suddenly fell into an eerie silence. The servants, who had been in high spirits before, were all quietly immersed in their work. No one dared to mention anything about today's events for fear of being implicated.
The princess prepared such an expensive banquet, but in the end, the important guests did not come, and instead they took advantage of those who were insignificant!
The prince's face has been completely lost by the princess!
"Damn Song Jin'er, you actually helped an outsider harm me! I knew this girl had ulterior motives for the prince. Did she think that the prince would accept her if I made a mistake?"
Cen Yurong's angry voice came from the room, but the hands in her sleeves were trembling.
In order to satisfy the Duke's wife and the old princess, she worked so hard, took care of everything, and spent a lot of money to prepare all this, but in the end, everything was in vain!
Why? !
She couldn't remember where she had offended them!
Is it for Xia Yunxian?
A ridiculous idea flashed through her mind, and soon Cen Yurong sneered.
How could it be possible? Even if Liang Qianqian and Xia Yunxian were on good terms, the Duke's Palace and Pingnan Palace wouldn't offend the prince for a little prince's wife, right?
Cen Yurong really couldn't figure it out. At this moment, Aunt Huang came to her timidly, "Princess, the prince is waiting for you in the study."
The woman in front of her suddenly turned pale. She took a few deep breaths before slowly moving forward.
In the long corridor, Cen Yurong looked strange and her steps were no longer as calm as usual. She was in a state of confusion and did not notice Jiang Yurong in the dark at all.
Princess Xian actually missed it!
Jiang Yurong stayed in the unattended guest room for a full day, waiting for Princess Xian to send someone to summon her to show up and expose Xia Yunxian in front of the Duke's wife and the old princess!
I didn't expect such a big mistake to happen!
Hehe, it was obvious that he had an attitude of being determined to win before!
At this time, she quietly looked at Cen Yurong's retreating figure. The original disappointment disappeared and was replaced by uncontrollable schadenfreude.
Even the gentle and wise king would definitely not be able to spare her now, right?
The virtuous princess that everyone envied, turned out to be scared sometimes.
Jiang Yurong hesitated for a moment and then had the courage to follow her. She really wanted to see Princess Xian being scolded.
Unexpectedly, a gust of cold wind blew past, and a black shadow silently appeared in front of her eyes, and a big cold hand instantly covered her mouth and nose...
The candlelight in the study was still on.
Xiao Junlan's tall figure stood in front of the book desk, holding the wolf hair straightly in his hand, and quietly swaying his vigorous and powerful fonts on the rice paper.
The flashing light fell on his gentle and gentle handsome face, his deep pupils were as sinking as a deep pool, and his half-smiling mouth made it hard to fathom his happiness and anger.
Cen Yurong froze in the corner and finally plucked up the courage to speak.
"Your Majesty, Jin'er doesn't know what An's intentions are. She actually teamed up with bad guys to frame Yu Rong. The key is that the prince is so kind to her, but she still turns her elbows outward..."
"Jin'er will not betray me."
Unexpectedly, Xiao Junlan spoke very calmly, then stopped writing and looked at her with a smile.
"how about you?"
