Chapter 178

There were two ice basins in Gao Rongyue's room. The ice basins were piled high with ice cubes. As soon as they entered the room, a chill hit their faces.

Cui Yuzhu sat in this luxuriously furnished, cool and comfortable room, eating the fruit she had just taken out of the ice cream on the table, with a flash of uncontrollable jealousy in her eyes.

But she was good at pretending, and she quickly put away her jealous look, and asked Gao Rongyue with a smile: "Sister Gao, is Zhou Ran here?"

Gao Rongyue nodded, "She's already here. I've prepared everything else. Just wait and see the show. I will definitely make her lose face today to stay in the capital and stay with Ye Ximing."

Cui Yuzhu smiled and said: "I believe Sister Gao will be able to achieve her wish."

The two stayed in the house for a while. When Mrs. Gao called someone to call, Cui Yuzhu had already received a bracelet and a hairpin from Gao Rongyue.

Cui Yuzhu was quite satisfied with this. She followed Gao Rongyue to the waterside pavilion and stopped following Gao Rongyue to offend Mrs. Gao.

Gao Rongyue stayed beside Mrs. Gao, but her eyes glanced in Zhou Ran's direction from time to time.

Zhou Ran's seat was not next to Mrs. Anyuanhou's, but she wasn't too far back. She didn't know anyone at the entire flower-viewing banquet, so she sat there by herself, thinking about Gao Rongyue's intention, and admiring it. The view before my eyes.

I have to say that the scenery in Gaofu is very good.

The whole mansion is full of pavilions, gardens and pavilions.

Especially this waterside pavilion is even more cleverly built.

The weather at the end of June is very hot, but ice basins are placed in every corner of the water pavilion. When you are in the water pavilion, the wind blows from the lake from time to time, bringing bursts of coolness and the fragrance of lotus flowers in the pond.

If I didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Gao Rongyue Gourd, I would really enjoy staying here.

Sensing Gao Rongyue's glance towards her, Zhou Ran looked back, but Gao Rongyue immediately withdrew his gaze.

Zhou Ran couldn't figure out Gao Rongyue's plan and could only wait and see.

When she withdrew her eyes from Gao Rongyue, Zhou Ran noticed another look on her. She followed her gaze and saw that it was Mrs. Wu. She smiled at Mrs. Wu and nodded, as if I said hello.

Mrs. Wu did not expect Zhou Ran to appear at the flower appreciation banquet of the Gao family. Most of the people present today were the family members of officials above the fourth rank, or the in-laws of the Gao family. Her status here was considered low, but Zhou Ran Ran appeared here, which surprised her.

After seeing Zhou Ran greeting her, she also nodded to Zhou Ran.

Since it is a flower-viewing banquet, it is natural that there should be flowers and a banquet.

Everyone was admiring the scenery and talking for a while in the waterside pavilion. Mrs. Gao was about to order the maid to serve the food, when suddenly a maid came to say that the eldest princess was here.

Mrs. Gao stood up in surprise. Although she sent a message to the eldest princess, she never expected that the eldest princess would come.

The eldest princess has never liked to attend various banquets in the capital. They never left a message for the various banquets held in the palace before, but the eldest princess has never attended.

I don’t know why the eldest princess came today.

Next to Mrs. Gao, Gao Rongyue was a little panicked when she heard that the eldest princess had arrived.

I hope the arrival of the eldest princess will not affect what she wants to do.

The eldest princess was welcomed in, and everyone present stood up and saluted. After finishing the salute, Zhou Ran carefully raised her eyes and glanced at the eldest princess. She was a little curious about the appearance of the eldest princess.

The eldest princess is the sister of the late emperor. The late emperor loved the eldest princess when he was alive. Otherwise, the eldest princess would not have been able to save Mr. Fei, who had offended the late emperor, from the late emperor.

Emperor Hongsheng also respected his aunt, the eldest princess. It is said that the reason why Emperor Hongsheng was able to rule personally was because of the support of the eldest princess.

Moreover, Emperor Hongsheng was seriously ill before, and it was the eldest princess who invited Mr. Fei back to the capital to rescue Emperor Hongsheng.

When Zhou Ran saw the face of the eldest princess, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.

how come? How come the eldest princess looks exactly like the woman he saved?
The eldest princess seemed to be aware of Zhou Ran's gaze and looked towards Zhou Ran. Zhou Ran quickly lowered her eyes and looked away.

After sitting down in her seat, Zhou Ran thought about it carefully and felt that Mr. Fei had stayed in Nanxing County before. It seemed very reasonable for the princess to go to Nanxing County to find Mr. Fei.

But when Zhou Ran thought about it again, it didn't seem to matter whether the person was the eldest princess or not. Anyway, she would not go to the eldest princess to repay her kindness.

After thinking about it, Zhou Ran put aside the matter of the eldest princess and turned her attention back to Gao Rongyue.

Since the beginning of the banquet, Gao Rongyue's eyes have been staring at her.

Zhou Ran was on guard against Gao Rongyue. Even though the dishes at the banquet looked very delicious, she only moved her chopsticks intentionally and did not actually eat them.

Unfortunately, even though Zhou Ran was as careful as possible, an accident still happened. A maid in charge of serving food accidentally spilled a bowl of soup on Zhou Ran.

Gao Rongyue, who had been paying attention here, immediately scolded the maid: "How did you do things? Why don't you apologize to Mrs. Ye quickly?"

The little maid apologized in a low voice.

Gao Rongyue didn't wait for Zhou Ran to speak, and quickly said to Zhou Ran: "Mrs. Ye, it's all the maids at home who are rash. I'll have someone take you down to change your clothes."

Although Gao Rongyue tried her best to make the expression on her face full of apology and sincerity, her acting skills were not good, and Zhou Ran still saw excitement in her eyes.

Zhou Ran knew that it was useless to refuse at this moment, so she nodded, thanked Gao Rongyue, and followed the maid beside Gao Rongyue to leave the banquet.

That maid was the one Zhou Ran had seen before.

Zhou Ran knew that Gao Rongyue had bad intentions, so naturally she would not foolishly follow Gao Rongyue's maid to change clothes.

After getting a little further away from the place where the flower viewing banquet was held, Zhou Ran observed the surrounding environment and prepared to find a suitable place to get rid of Gao Rongyue's maid. She first found a place to hide and see what Gao Rongyue wanted to do. What.

But before Zhou Ran could find a suitable place, Gao Rongyue's maid suddenly stopped, hugged her stomach and said: "Mrs. Ye, I'm sorry, my stomach suddenly hurts. Please wait here for a moment, I'll look for you again." Someone will take you to change clothes."

After saying that, the maid turned around and ran away without waiting for Zhou Ran to speak.

Zhou Ran looked around and saw that it was not a remote garden or a deserted yard. There would occasionally be servants passing by.

Zhou Ran felt that Gao Rongyue wouldn't be here even if she wanted to do something, right?

But just in case, Zhou Ran didn't stay here anymore.
