Chapter 416
The eldest princess doesn't care about the commotion in the Duke's mansion.On the side of the Princess Mansion, the cheerful atmosphere did not seem to be affected, and the banquet was going on normally.More than half an hour later, the banquet was over, Qiaoyun sat in the princess mansion for a while, and then, accompanied by Chu Ruifeng, left the princess mansion and went back to another courtyard.

After Qiaoyun left, the eldest princess and Chu Kangsheng went to the study.The eldest princess took down a long scroll from the bookshelf, and opened it carefully. As the scroll stretched, the contents inside gradually appeared. It turned out that this was a picture of a beautiful woman.It's just that the people above are five or six points similar to Qiao Yun who just left.

"Princess, are you thinking of your mother-in-law again?" Chu Kangsheng came behind the eldest princess, looking at the portrait in front of him, he was also filled with emotion. "For so many years, the princess has always kept this painting. If the mother-in-law is alive, she will know how much you miss her."

The eldest princess had tears in her eyes, "Kang Sheng, you should know that the biggest regret in my life is my mother. When I was young, my mother let go and left. My mother's life was unlucky. I couldn't wait until I grew up and couldn't see you. I got married and had children, all of this is an irreparable regret in this life for me."

Chu Kangsheng put his arms around the princess's shoulders, and held a handkerchief in the other hand to wipe her tears. "Stop crying, your mother-in-law will know about your filial piety. If your mother-in-law is alive, she would not want you to be like this. Now is not the time to cry. Since Feng'er has a sweetheart, we have to give it to you quickly." They arrange marriages."

"There's also the end of the east courtyard. There's no way you'll give up so easily. You refused to take people there just now, so the old lady might be so furious. Let's go there tonight, I'm afraid I don't know how to make a fuss. The East Court has gone too far in recent years, if this is the case, fortunately, Bing Ming has recognized his father and separated the family directly, so as to save them all from being greedy."

It's not that Chu Kangsheng has no temper. In the past, he was Gu Quan's old man, and he just refused to deal with his brothers.But in the past two years, the old lady led her son and daughter-in-law, causing trouble from time to time, and Chu Kang'an and others relied on the power of the Duke's Mansion to run amok outside.No matter how good-tempered Chu Kangsheng was, he couldn't bear it.

Hearing what her husband said, the eldest princess's attention was diverted, "That's right, with the old lady's temper, she should have brought someone over to make trouble just now. But it's been so long, and the other side is so calm, It's really a bit strange. Let's all be careful tonight, I want to see what kind of moths can come out of it."

Speaking of business, naturally there was no time to be sad, so the eldest princess rewound the scroll and put it away.Then he came out of the study and ordered the people in the mansion to find a way to go to the east courtyard to find out what was going on there.Don't look at the eldest princess who doesn't care about the affairs of the Duke's Mansion of the East Court, but over the years, she has also placed a lot of people there, with a lot of eyeliner, so it is not a problem to get news.

Not long after, there was news that the old lady was really furious, and she really wanted to bring someone over to inquire about her, but she was persuaded by the girl Mo Lan.I don't know what method that Mo Lan used to coax the old lady into a circle. After some persuasion, the old lady stopped being angry and cheerfully ordered someone to prepare a dinner.

"Be careful tonight, I'm afraid there won't be a good banquet. I've seen that Mo Lan a few times, and she is very scheming, but I don't know what kind of trap they have set up secretly." The eldest princess said to the old lady I still understand it very well, that is a person who can't hold his breath, and now he can swallow this breath and not come to trouble, it can only show that there will be bigger plots behind them.

It's not early at this moment, and Chu Ruifeng just came back.The family of three discussed for a while, then packed up and set off for the Duke's Mansion in the East Courtyard.

It was already dark early in winter, but it was already dark outside at this moment. There were lights and festoons everywhere in the Duke's Mansion, and there was a festive scene in front of us.When the servants of the Duke's Mansion saw the eldest princess and the others coming, they quickly greeted them respectfully, and the group went directly to the main hall of the Duke's Mansion, where the annual reunion banquets are held.

The hall has been prepared long ago, Mr. Xu, Mr. Fan and others have also come over early, and they are directing the servants to carefully check the furnishings in the room. It looks quite grand.

Seeing Chu Kangsheng's family coming in, Chu Kang'an and others hurriedly brought their daughter-in-law over to greet them. Xu and Fan didn't see any unpleasantness at all at the moment, they were all smiling.But the eldest princess didn't rub the sand in her eyes, and she could still see that the smile on the other party's face was a little stiff.

The eldest princess sneered in her heart. These people obviously wanted to cover up the day's affairs, but unfortunately, the superficial skills were not good enough, and it was inevitable that some flaws would be exposed.Right now, the eldest princess is really looking forward to it, she doesn't know what kind of game these people set up tonight.I hope they can do a little more advanced, don't be too low, otherwise it is really boring.

Seeing through but not telling the truth, the eldest princess just pretended that she didn't know anything, but when others were not paying attention, she winked at Chu Ruifeng to remind him to pay more attention.Chu Ruifeng nodded. These people were indeed overly enthusiastic tonight. There must be something wrong with it.

While Chu Ruifeng was thinking, several young people surrounded him, all of whom were cousins ​​of Chu Ruifeng.The two sons of Chu Kang'an's family, Chu Ruiping and Chu Ruixing, Chu Ruiqi from Chu Kangnian's family, and Chu Ruijun from Chu Kanghua's family.Among these few, Chu Ruiping is the oldest, one year older than Chu Ruifeng, Chu Ruiqi is a few months older than Chu Ruifeng, and the other two are one year younger than him.

In fact, Chu Kangsheng got married very late, and the old lady was not his biological mother, so she would not help him with these matters at all.If it wasn't for Chu Kangsheng being outstanding enough to attract the attention of the eldest princess, and after the two hit it off, the first emperor personally bestowed the marriage, the old lady would have liked Chu Kangsheng to be a bachelor for the rest of her life.

It was also because of this that although Chu Kangsheng was the eldest son, he got married later than his two younger brothers, so Chu Ruifeng actually ranked third among his cousins.

When Chu Ruifeng was young, he used to play with his cousins, but he suffered every time.The key point is that the old lady is facing her grandson, no matter what happens, she will always blame Chu Ruifeng.After coming and going, Chu Ruifeng didn't care to play with his cousins, and they became more and more unfamiliar these years.In comparison, Chu Ruifeng's relationship with his cousins ​​is not as good as Qingxiao Qinglei's.
