Immediately, servants came forward in the courtyard and carried down the things on display.
"Tang Ning..." Princess Leyang was about to speak.
Rong Yue directly took Tang Ning's hand, as if he didn't see her wanting to speak, and directly raised her voice towards the flower hall and said: "The banquet is ready, please take your seats."
"Tang Ning, the weather is a bit hot. Go and ask people to put more ice basins in the table so as not to overheat the guests."
Tang Ning nodded: "Okay."
Princess Leyang saw that her aunt and nephew Rongyue avoided her directly and invited everyone in the flower hall to sit down. Tang Ning even turned around and left with an excuse. But she had almost given up on Tang Ning's various attempts to show her intimacy just now. On the bright side, she was unmoved and refused like this, and her face suddenly turned ugly.
"Princess, Mrs. Rongguo is obviously not far away from getting married, and this Song Tangning didn't even accept the queen's advances, and even blamed the Lu family. I'm afraid our young husband is..."
"What are you afraid of?"
Princess Leyang turned her head and gave a cold look. There is nothing difficult in the world, but she is just a little girl without a father and a mother. She really thinks she has reached heaven because of a eunuch? She didn't believe that her majestic Princess Mansion couldn't take her down!
Thinking of the people sent by Queen Lu just now, Princess Leyang snorted coldly: "Go and ask someone to stop Jin Zhi, I want to see her."
…
When Rong Yue and Tang Ning were greeting everyone at the banquet, they heard Nian Xia say that the envoy from Princess Leyang's mansion had sent word that the princess had left in advance.
Tang Ning frowned tightly: "What is this eldest princess doing here?"
She was so nagging that she came uninvited. She pestered her aunt for a long time and pulled her to tell her something. Now she left immediately. She didn't even know how to say goodbye to the host. She sent someone to say a casual word and left. If he hadn't been a member of the royal family, he would have been wrapped in a sack long ago.
Rongyue was disgusted: "What else can you do, they are just flies that smell like meat."
When I see the benefits, I just want to keep them in my pocket without asking anyone if they are willing.
Seeing Tang Ning looking at her doubtfully, Rongyue took a deep breath and said:
"Princess Leyang's consort once discussed marriage with Xie Yin, and she also had some business dealings with Xie Tianyu. After Xie Tianyu died, she got attached to me and wanted to trade the marriage proposal with Xie Yin for something. The good thing is that I have rejected her, so you should ignore her and stay away from her when you see her in the future."
Rong Yue didn't want Tang Ning to know about the dirty things, which made her feel disgusted, but Tang Ning guessed something from the look of disgust on her face.
I remembered that just now Princess Leyang had pulled her to praise her, and she also brought her youngest son along with her words.
Tang Ning was both stunned and speechless.
Could it be that Princess Leyang wanted to exchange Xie Yin's marriage for hers?
Is she out of her mind? !
…
Jin Zhi was still full of surprise when she was stopped by Princess Leyang's people. When she heard what Princess Leyang said to her with her chin raised proudly, she was just stunned.
When she returned to the palace and saw Empress Lu and told her about this, Empress Lu was a little speechless.
"You mean, Le Yang fell in love with Tang Ning and asked me to help her?"
Jin Zhi whispered: "Princess Leyang said that she likes the temperament of the county lord and has a good rapport with her. Since the queen loves her and she owed Tang Ning the Lu family affairs before, it would be better to provide her with a good marriage. He also said..."
"What did you say?" Queen Lu raised her eyes.
Jin Zhi was a little hesitant. When the queen looked at her, she whispered: "Princess Leyang also said that the Lu family does not treat you as well as before. The fourth prince is also in trouble in the court now. If you can help her get her wish, she will win the title of county head." This daughter-in-law, when the time comes, she will definitely let the county master repay the favor of the empress and His Highness, and win over Governor Xiao for you..."
"Ah!"
Queen Lu almost laughed angrily.
Why do you like Tang Ning's temperament? He just sees the benefits in her and dares to make trouble with the Lu family.
She and the fourth prince are in a bad situation now, but it's not up to that idiot Leyang to ridicule her. Does she really think of herself as some kind of eldest princess? !
Seeing that Queen Lu was angry, Jin Zhi hurriedly whispered: "Queen, please don't be angry. This slave is just wishful thinking when looking at Princess Leyang. The Lord of Yiyang County and Mrs. Rong Guo do not look down on the young man in her house. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have found a slave girl out of sheer whims, so just ignore her..."
"Why ignore it?"
"ah?"
Jin Zhi looked up in shock.
Empress Lu sneered. She was worried about how to make Tangning willingly enter the fourth prince's house, when Leyang bumped into her. It would be a waste to not use the ready-made chess pieces.
Tang Ning was proud and arrogant, and Rong Yue hated the Lu family even more. It was impossible for Tang Ning to marry the disfigured fourth prince. She had been thinking about how to make them willing to get married. Now Le Yang said It gave her an idea.
Leyang is a fool and will do whatever it takes to benefit Tangning. If she can make Leyang go crazy and do something, Tangning will be destroyed in Leyang's hands.
When the time comes, she will let the fourth prince greet her as a concubine, taking into consideration the past relationship. Rong Yue and Tang Ning will definitely be grateful to her and devoted to her prince.
Empress Lu waved towards Jin Zhi and whispered a few words to her as she approached.
Seeing Jin Zhi suddenly raise his head in surprise, she said in a deep voice: "Remember, don't leave any clues to Leyang, don't say anything, just guide her to know the good things about Tang Ning."
"Tell Leyang that Tang Ning is a good boy, and the academy benefits students all over the world. Knowing that she is of noble character, there are many people who want to marry her. I have already been looking for a suitable husband for her. Her son and Tang Ning is not a good match, so let her give up this idea early to avoid embarrassment for everyone..."
Leyang also has her eyes set high above her head, and is proud of her status as the eldest princess. She is obviously stupid, but she is always smart, thinking that her two good-for-nothing sons are better than anyone else.
Empress Lu knew very well how to lure her into the trap. As long as Le Yang knew that Tang Ning was not coveted by her family and knew the benefits that Tang Ning could bring, she would be in crisis. She would definitely find ways to get Tang Ning and her son together. , If you can't do it openly, you can only do it in crooked ways.
Jin Zhi whispered: "But Madam, all the people in this palace are members of Governor Xiao. If anything happens, he knows that this slave has met Princess Leyang, so he may be suspicious of you."
Empress Lu's eyes flashed slightly and she said warmly to Jin Zhi: "Don't worry, Xiao Yan is busy investigating what happened back then and has no time to care about these things. Besides, I just rejected Leyang. Even if he knew, could he still blame me for not helping?" Did Leyang get his wish?"
"Besides, this palace is also for his own good. If Tangning and the fourth prince can succeed, he won't worry about the fourth prince turning against him after he ascends the throne, right?"
Jin Zhi frowned, always feeling that there was something wrong with this matter, but seeing that Queen Lu had made up her mind, she could only say: "That slave will go later."
"Be careful and avoid other people."
Empress Lu took off a golden hairpin from her head: "During this period, you have been running around for me, and I will remember it in my heart." She inserted the golden branch into her hair, "You usually dress too plainly. , this hairpin is perfect for you."
"Your Majesty..." Jin Zhi was moved and knelt down and said, "My life belongs to your Majesty. No matter what you do for your Majesty, I am willing to do it."
The queen's face showed tenderness when she heard this: "I know that you are the most loyal to me, and you are the only one I trust the most in these years. Don't worry, after the fourth prince becomes the great treasure, I will definitely settle down with you." , he will also remember everything you did for him."
She will definitely give her a good coffin so that she can leave in the most dignified way, and her more than twenty years as master and servant will not be wasted.
