As soon as Liu Wenxian finished speaking, she reached out and patted Feng Hengzhi's hand.
Feng Hengzhi glanced sideways at the people in the inner room, then turned around and looked at Liu Wenxian, saying casually, "Mother, it won't take a moment. She will come to see you after she finishes her work."
As he spoke, he pushed Liu Wenxian out.
Liu Wenxian didn't react until the people around her disappeared.
She pointed in the direction Feng Hengzhi had disappeared, then turned to Jin Rui beside her and asked, "What's going on? Hasn't he always looked down on Sang Luan? Why is he speaking up for her today?"
Jin Rui lowered her head and answered cautiously, "Perhaps the young master was captivated by the young lady's charm, and he..."
Before Jin Rui finished speaking, Liu Wenxian couldn't help but sneer.
She raised her right hand slightly with her index finger raised and gently placed it aside. Jin Rui then stepped forward and supported her.
Liu Wenxian looked nonchalant, her tone quite casual, "Don't be ridiculous, she? What kind of charm can she have? I think my son has been bothered by the trivial matters of the court recently, otherwise why would he pay attention to the affairs of the palace!"
She paused for a moment, then continued, "Forget it, forget it. Since Zhi'er has already spoken, I will give Sang Luan this chance. If she hasn't come in an hour, I will come and bother her again."
Jin Rui smiled and said, "Madam is truly the best mother-in-law in the world."
Liu Wenxian snorted coldly, "The best mother-in-law? Everything I do is for their benefit, but in the end, they may not necessarily accept my kindness."
"Young Madam will understand. By the way, Madam, today the Madam of the Gu family invites you to have tea."
Liu Wenxian paused, "Madam of the Gu family, which Gu family?"
Jin Rui: "To answer Madam, it's the wife of the Chief Censor, Gu Shouqian, Lord Gu."
Liu Wenxian was a little suspicious. "Gu family? Okay, let's go."
After taking a few steps, Liu Wenxian spoke again, "Send someone to tell Sang Luan that she can temporarily skip studying today. We'll discuss everything after I come back."
When the master was still in the court, Gu Shouqian had been saying some unpleasant things, both openly and covertly.
Ever since Zhier became the Prime Minister, the other party has become much quieter.
In the past few years, Gu Shouqian's wife would organize gatherings for noble ladies whenever she had time.
The other party always goes along with her, and she hasn't been there for a long time.
This time, it’s no big deal for her to go.
Half an hour later, Sang Luan came out of the side hall.
She put a new lip balm in her sleeve with great satisfaction, intending to bring it to Meng Youning when she had time.
Sang Luan stretched and immediately felt a lot more comfortable.
Front garden.
Sang Luan looked around in confusion. Shouldn't Liu Wenxian be here at this time?
How come there is no one here except the servants?
Seeing this, the maidservant closest to Sang Luan couldn't help but ask, "Young Madam, are you looking for Madam? Madam has gone to Gu's house for tea and may not be back for a while."
"Before Madam left the house, she specifically told me that if the young lady has any questions, she can first think carefully about what she said to you before. She will come to you when she returns."
Sang Luan paused and asked tentatively, "The Gu family, the one that belongs to the Chief Censor?"
The maid nodded and said, "Young Madam is really amazing, it's that Gu family."
Sang Luan waved her hand, and the little maidservant returned to her original position.
At this time, Sang Luan's joy after coming out of Furong Courtyard had faded a lot.
Instead, there was a hint of sadness between his eyebrows.
She frowned and bit her lip lightly.
Seeing this, Yupo beside her couldn't help but ask with concern, "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Sang Luan shook her head, turned around and looked at the maids around her, and shouted loudly: "Has anyone of you followed mother to the Gu family? Take me there quickly."
As soon as the words fell, a little maidservant not far away weakly raised her hand, then trotted forward and timidly said, "Young Madam, I've been there."
Sang Luan raised her hand with a cold expression, "Lead the way."
Seeing her serious expression, Yupo didn't dare to ask any more questions and just followed her obediently.
Sang Luan remembered very clearly that in the original book, there was a time when Liu Wenxian went to attend a tea tasting party hosted by Mrs. Gu.
At the tea tasting party, Mrs. Gu mocked Liu Wenxian openly and covertly in front of all the noble ladies.
In Shengjing today, there is a rouge shop that is growing rapidly.
The ladies spent a lot of effort to get the rouge from this rouge shop.
Some asked their maids to buy it early, while others spent a lot of money to buy it from other people.
The products of this rouge shop gradually became a tool for comparison among noble ladies.
Liu Wenxian had always been supported by others in the past, so she naturally didn't think anything of Mrs. Gu's invitation.
But that time, Mrs. Gu had someone order all the new products from that rouge shop early on.
She and other noble ladies discussed matters related to the rouge shop, which not only left Liu Wenxian speechless, but also brought up Liu Wenxian's background.
There was not a single smile on Liu Wenxian's face throughout the entire process.
Liu Wenxian felt insulted, and after returning home, she immediately ordered that all the rouge in the maids' rooms be searched out and destroyed together.
According to the time, it should be this time.
She had to hurry and make Madam Gu shut up before she mentioned Liu Wenxian's background.
Otherwise, she would lose all the new products she had worked so hard to develop.
Thinking of this, Sang Luan's pace became faster and faster.
Fortunately, the distance from the Prime Minister's Mansion to the Gu family is not very far.
An incense stick later, Sang Luan and his companions arrived at Gu's house, panting.
Sang Luan held up the hem of her clothes with one hand and looked up at the plaque in front of her.
"Young Madam, why don't we use a carriage?" Yu Amber suddenly spoke.
Sang Luan, who was trying to calm down, paused for a moment, then waved her hand, "It's not important."
She closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, and after a while, she finally felt better.
She waved to the maid leading the way and said, "You go back first."
The little maid just nodded lightly and retreated quietly.
Sang Luan rubbed her hands in preparation and rushed towards the Gu family with the jade amber.
"Hey, hey, hey, the ladies are having a party at the mansion right now. How dare you barge in like this? Have you asked us?"
Sang Luan blinked impatiently, tilted her head, and gave Yupo a look.
Yupo, standing by, raised her neck and put her hands on her hips. "Look carefully! This is the wife of the Prime Minister. Are you sure you want to stop her?"
The two guards looked at each other, not daring to speak.
Sang Luan immediately lost her patience and walked inside first.
The guards on both sides subconsciously stepped forward to stop the people.
Sang Luan glanced over with a cold look, "Get out of the way."
