Chapter 260 Dealing with the Old Princess
"Miss Jiang is not bad either. I heard that when the general was not around, the matchmaker was about to break the threshold of the general's mansion!" Princess Cong also protected Feng Aoqing.
Everyone knows that she is not afraid. She doesn't depend on anyone anyway. As long as her industry can provide her with food and clothing, that's enough.
"Oh, I saw my shameless cousin delivering gifts yesterday. The gifts were delivered, but I didn't see the person. There were also Master Chen, Master Wang... so many people!" Princess Ting has always disliked Jiang Nuannuan's clingy and pretentious look.
"Princess, Lord Lu treats you like a bouquet of flowers. This one is enough. The ones that are surrounded by a group of flies are either eggs with cracks or..." Feng Aoqing didn't say the word "shit", but everyone understood and couldn't help laughing.
Everyone can be sarcastic. Jiang Nuannuan, if you want to use words today, I will accompany you. If you want to use violence, I will also accompany you.
Jiang Nuannuan gritted her teeth.
In order to let Han Lang know that she was not unpopular, she had indeed arranged for many people to come to her house to propose marriage in the past few days. She also happened to meet students from Beijing Middle School discussing poetry in a teahouse, and then someone came to give him a gift.
He didn't expect that Han Lang knew about it, and Feng Aoqing also knew about it.
Everyone was much more interested in Feng Aoqing's clothes than Jiang Nuannuan. Soon no one paid any attention to her, and she left the pavilion to look at the flowers.
Everyone also asked about the butterfly-shaped pearl flower in Feng Aoqing's hair. The butterfly on the pearl flower trembled slightly as she walked, which was more interesting than the swaying feeling of a hairpin.
Feng Aoqing started selling again, telling them that it was available at Jinchuan Silver House.
At this time, Nan Yanhou's wife arrived with the Crown Prince's wife. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are ten pairs in total, and I've ordered them all. After all, I have so many daughters-in-law."
"Please give me one, please give me one!" Princess Ting had just been clamoring to buy one, and now she rolled into the arms of the Marquis' wife.
The two families are related, so they are very familiar with each other.
"Okay, okay."
When women get together, they always talk about these things.
I was happily chatting about makeup and hair when the majestic voice of an elderly woman sounded behind me.
"Shut up! The king has long ago issued an order requiring the royal family, ministers, and the wives of the nobles to be polite and frugal. Yet you are still gathered here to talk about jewels and fine clothes. You simply do not respect the king!"
The person who came was the old princess of Prince Rui's Mansion. The old Prince Rui was the king's uncle, and he was the only one left of his generation. When the king ascended the throne, the old Prince Rui played a very important role, so the king respected both of them very much.
Everyone knelt down and left the pavilion.
Feng Aoqing smiled and said, "Waiting for me here! I felt bad for my son and didn't show up. I asked the old leader to come out. I'm so scared!"
"Feng! You are the culprit!" The old princess pointed at Feng Aoqing and shouted.
"Feng, why don't you come out and kneel down!" A maidservant beside the old princess stepped forward with extraordinary momentum.
Feng Aoqing was originally sitting upright, but when she was called out like this, she leaned against the armrest of the chair, showing no intention of getting up.
An Ke had already seen her eyes, and flew directly from the pavilion to the old woman and kicked her away.
Giving slaps is not our style.
"How dare you point at my master?" She took a step forward and, before the old woman could even cover her stomach, she broke the finger she was pointing at.
There were bursts of exclamations from the women.
"Old Princess, Feng? I pretended not to hear, otherwise, my Miss Ke would cut off your tongue." Feng Aoqing picked up a candied date and put it in her mouth.
The old princess was shocked.
"King Yu and I have no engagement, no matchmaker, and no formalities. He doesn't even dare to call me Feng!" Feng Aoqing said gritting her teeth.
"Well! It's because Prince Yu indulges you! That's why you are so domineering! Now you even dare to commit violence in the Prince's Mansion!" The old princess didn't dare to reach out her hands again and could only move her mouth.
"He indulges me, and you go and point at his nose and scold him, and see if he will chop off your hand. I think even the queen has never pointed at his nose and scolded him! Are you more powerful than the queen?" Feng Aoqing said with a smile.
Zhou Jirou had already reached the garden gate, but when she heard the old princess scolding Feng Aoqing, she stopped and retreated to the wall.
"Crown Princess, don't you care? Will it be..."
Zhou Jirou smiled and said, "Who will suffer the loss? Anyway, I have done what my mother asked me to do. I can't control anything else. You should keep an eye on Ji'er and don't let him enter the garden."
The old princess's wife, now Princess Rui, saw that her mother-in-law was unable to win the argument, so she stepped forward to help.
"Is this the rule that Prince Yu taught you? You are so disrespectful to my mother. I don't think even the emperor would speak to her like that."
"He said that I don't need to learn. My rules are the rules." Feng Aoqing stood up and raised his chin.
Everyone couldn't help but shrink back.
"This is simply lawless! You two have no engagement, no matchmaker, and no formalities, yet you live together in the same room and do things indecently. How can you be allowed to rule the country?" The old princess cursed again.
"Hey, in your place, is living in the same yard the same as living in the same room?" Feng Aoqing smiled.
"Of course!" The old princess stiffened her neck.
"Then there are fifty men and two hundred guards in your house, you are even more miserable!" Feng Aoqing calculated seriously.
Someone among the female members laughed out loud. It was Princess Ting.
Feng Aoqing continued, "How are these ladies who are kneeling on the ground supposed to deal with this? From now on, there won't be another man in the courtyard. Otherwise, if the old princess sees them, she'll be scolded for being promiscuous!"
"You!" Princess Rui stretched out her hand halfway but did not dare to extend it further.
At this time, An Wan leaned over to Feng Aoqing and said something in her ear.
"Oh, and you, Princess Rui. Changleju, this courtyard is well named." Feng Aoqing said with a smile.
The women began to whisper to each other.
"The rumors turned out to be true..."
"That's right! Prince Duan is still denying it..."
"I heard that the two of them were playing their own games and didn't care about each other..."
"Really......"
Both were defeated.
The old princess glared at her daughter-in-law and prepared to leave in anger.
"etc!"
When An Ke heard Feng Aoqing's call, she reached out to block the two of them.
Feng Aoqing walked down from the pavilion, her face already stern. "You just gave me such a big blame, I must explain. An Wan, go and invite the Crown Princess."
At this time, Zhou Jirou had no choice but to stand up.
She smiled calmly and said, "What are you all talking about? Why are you all kneeling? The old princess feels sorry for you. Please stand up after the ceremony!"
Everyone then stood up.
"Crown Princess, the first day the old princess saw me, she gave me the name of a troublemaker for the women of the family. I can't bear this. I need to talk to you in person."
"Feng Huajun, there is no need to do this..."
"Yes." Feng Aoqing's voice told Zhou Jirou that she would not tolerate any objection.
"Please go ahead," was all she could say.
"First of all, the dress we're talking about, as I've just explained to the ladies, is only one-tenth the price of Fuxuezhi. How can it be considered extravagant? It's clearly a transition from extravagance to frugality! You're also wearing Fuxuezhi. Does that count as extravagance?"
