Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 1139 Looking for trouble

Concubine Zhao didn't take it seriously and said: "Even if you are angry, it is only temporary. I am doing this for his own good. He will understand in the future."

Originally, she was also very angry when her son went to the border alone without listening to her advice. Isn't it okay now?

How can mother and son have an overnight feud?

The confidant Nanny was still a little worried, but she didn't dare to say anything more. After all, this was a matter between mother and son. She, a servant, couldn't say too much, so she could only do as she was told.

Concubine Zhao's people were very efficient in handling affairs, and Jiang Jiuniang quickly received the invitation. It was a chrysanthemum appreciation banquet, which was held in Prince Jing's villa.

Jiang Jiuniang could guess that Prince Jing was looking for help from Concubine Zhao. If Concubine Zhao could help, it would be better. At least it would be able to retain some of Prince Jing's image. If she helped create some opportunities, it would be possible for them to see each other. big.

"You take your mother with you so that I can keep an eye on you."

Lu Baichuan didn't want her to attend that kind of banquet. After all, the situation was still unstable and there were too many uncertainties at the banquet. It would be bad if she was hurt.

But he knew that he couldn't stop it, and he also knew that she had good intentions and wanted to help, so he had no choice but to compromise. He had heard people say that a woman's mood is the most important thing during pregnancy, and he should follow her wishes to keep her happy. Only when the condition of the unborn child is better.

"I thought so too."

Jiang Jiuniang nodded without refuting. The banquet was the center of the gossip, and I believe Ms. Sun would be happy to go.

Soon the day of the banquet came. Jiang Jiuniang and Mrs. Sun went out early in the morning. Mrs. Sun knew that this was a banquet specially organized by Mrs. Zhao for Prince Jing. She couldn't help but sigh: "It's pitiful for the hearts of parents in the world. Prince Jing has not yet given birth to a child at such an old age." Concubine Zhao must be very anxious about getting married, and she must want to make some moves at today's banquet to enhance the relationship between His Highness Prince Jing and Miss Na Mei."

Halfway through, Ms. Sun said with some melancholy: "But Prince Jing probably won't be able to stay in the capital for too long. After they get married, they will probably have to go to the border or to the fiefdom. It will not be easy for Miss Mei to return to her parents' home in the future." .”

"Hahahaha, you're thinking too much, right? You haven't even written these horoscopes yet!"

Jiang Jiuniang couldn't help laughing, but Mr. Sun rolled his eyes and ignored her. The two chatted and laughed and soon arrived at the other courtyard where the banquet was held. At this time, many ladies and ladies had arrived. Everyone greeted each other and entered the courtyard together. .

After all, it was a banquet hosted by herself. Mrs. Zhao arrived early and was surrounded by a group of people talking. Jiang Jiuniang and Mrs. Sun stepped forward to salute. Both sides said some polite words, and then Jiang Jiuniang excused herself to leave. Then he went out.

Concubine Zhao didn't like Jiang Jiuniang. She didn't like her very early. When she beat her son like that at the little princess's banquet, she would remember that hatred for the rest of her life.

It's just that now the son is getting closer to the couple, and the Lu family is now very favored in front of the emperor. Even if they don't like it in their hearts, they still have to maintain superficial peace.

Jiang Jiuniang also didn't like Concubine Zhao. Although she had only met her a few times, her face looked quite mean. She didn't want to have too much contact with her and would avoid her if she could.

After coming out, she found a place to sit and asked Sun to talk to her old sisters.

Mrs. Sun was a little moved, but she still said, "I came here today to look after you. What will you do if I leave?"

"Don't worry, I'm just sitting here and not going anywhere. Besides, there are Yueshu and the others watching, and everything will be fine. You go find more people to talk to, and tell me if you come back with anything new."

She wanted to drive Sun away. The little old lady was a little naive and there were some things she didn't want her to know.When Mrs. Sun heard that it was feasible, she told Yueshu and the others to keep an eye on Jiang Jiuniang and not let her run away, and then she took the two little maids to chat with her old sisters.

As soon as she left, Jiang Jiuniang told Yueshu: "Arrange someone to keep an eye on Miss Dianmei and Concubine Zhao. Come back and report to me if there is any situation."

Since you agreed to help Prince Jing, it was necessary to pay more attention to the situation of those two people.

She has never been in contact with Mrs. Zhao and doesn't know much about her personality. If she lets people see what she can do and then cooperates herself, she might get twice the result with half the effort.

As soon as Mei Lanyi arrived, she was called to see Mrs. Zhao. There were not many people in front of Mrs. Zhao at this time. Coincidentally, the only people there were all unmarried girls who had some thoughts about Prince Jing.

This arrangement is somewhat intriguing.

Mei Lanyi didn't think too deeply about it. After arriving, she bowed respectfully to Mrs. Zhao, and then gave her a seat.

"I heard that there is some misunderstanding between Prince Jing and Miss Mei. It is really presumptuous for me to invite Miss Mei to come here today under the pretext of admiring chrysanthemums."

When Taifei Zhao opened her mouth, she lowered her posture as if she wanted to personally apologize to Prince Jing.

The faces of the girls next to her were a little embarrassed for a moment. Based on this look, Mrs. Zhao must have fallen in love with Mei Lanyi. So, is there something wrong with them staying here?
But it's not appropriate to leave now. They can only lower their heads as much as possible to reduce their sense of presence. After all, if Mei Lanyi really becomes Princess Jing, she will be someone they can't afford to offend. If you have illusions, you cannot show off your power at this time.

Mei Lanyi's face also looked a little unhappy. When she got the invitation, she knew that it was probably for her. It was probably Prince Jing's idea. She thought of various ways to refuse, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Zhao would put her How could she react to such a low posture?
She had a look of panic on her face, and said hurriedly: "The concubine's words are serious. It was my daughter who bumped into His Highness Prince Jing, and caused His Highness Prince Jing to fall into the water and catch the cold. She really deserves to be punished!"

As she said this, she looked up and saw that Mrs. Zhao had an unkind look on her face, and realized that Mrs. Zhao was angry.

And it's the kind of anger that's undisguised and shown directly on his face.

Her knees softened and she knelt directly on the ground.

Others also noticed something was wrong and immediately cheered up to watch the fun.

It depends on whether Mrs. Zhao really hates Mei Lanyi or if she is just pretending to scare her. Maybe they all still have a chance.

In front of so many people, Concubine Zhao didn't want to go too far and spread the word to her son. She waved her hands and said: "Get up, although you do deserve the punishment, I didn't ask you to kneel, otherwise Soon Prince Jing will come and blame me for bullying you."

Mei Lanyi's face was ugly. She knew that Mrs. Zhao was deliberately trying to embarrass herself. She was panicking, but she pretended to be stable on her face. She stood up and sat down again.

But I heard Mrs. Zhao say: "Miss Mei is very capable. My son has never been so interested in any woman in these years. I don't know what you think. If you are interested, I will ask the emperor to give you two a gift." Marriage is just that, if it's unintentional, let's make it clear earlier, don't let my son worry about it by being divorced all the time."

This was meant for Mei Lanyi, and also for the few noble ladies around her.

Concubine Zhao was openly telling everyone that Mei Lanyi was deliberately hanging on Prince Jing.
