Chapter 1080 Zheng Ling is in trouble again
When the eunuch heard that the princess was still asking questions, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really scared just now, and he even felt beads of sweat on his forehead.
He tried hard to recall in his mind the events concerning the fifth princess and the fifth prince consort, but he found nothing.
The eunuch's voice was trembling: "Princess, I know very little about this matter."
"But everyone says that Mr. Deng is very kind to the Fifth Princess."
"But I have noticed that every time the Fifth Princess came to the palace, she came alone. I have never seen this Master Deng accompany the Princess."
The following words were naturally what the young eunuch was thinking.
He also clearly saw the lonely expression on the Fifth Princess' face.
I realized that what I said was a bit abrupt.
He shook his head and looked at the princess in front of him sincerely: "But this Master Deng has a profound family background and a public office. Perhaps the official duties in the court are piled up like a mountain, and he really can't spare time."
Having said this, he almost knelt down.
For some reason, when facing Princess Yong'an, even though he was afraid, he couldn't control himself and spoke out what was in his heart.
Lu Xingwan stopped his action, and the little eunuch quickly let go of his hand, not daring to have much contact with the princess.
But when he stood up, he secretly looked up at the princess's expression. Seeing that the princess showed no signs of anger, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Xingwan's gaze was still looking in the direction of Deng Yi, her eyebrows slightly raised.
She just stood there quietly, in silence for a long time. The eunuch next to her felt less frightened when he saw the princess' expressionless face. He looked at Princess Yong'an and found that she didn't seem like an unreasonable person.
He also heard about what happened in the kitchen just now. The princess must be a very kind person.
Otherwise, she would have been furious the first time she learned that the Ice Lotus was lost.
But she went to the kitchen to help find Binglian.
Lu Xingwan was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the eunuch beside him and said, "You go and do your work first!"
The young eunuch was as if he had been pardoned, and he bowed deeply: "Thank you, Princess."
After saying this, he turned around and left the Xuanfu Palace.
He had already wasted quite a bit of time just now, and he was afraid that he would be scolded if he returned to the kitchen like this.
However, it is also his honor to be able to do something useful for Princess Yong'an.
As the young eunuch turned around and left the Xuanfu Palace, Lu Xingwan turned around to look at his back, feeling her heart in a turmoil.
She knew in her heart that it was impossible for her to understand the truth based on just a few words from others.
But in her heart, she was really worried about her fifth sister.
Forget it. Although it is immoral to snoop into other people's private affairs, she still decided to use her spiritual power to go to the Fifth Princess's Mansion after the palace banquet to see how Deng Yi and the Fifth Sister get along with each other on a daily basis.
Now that she has discovered that her fifth sister is not normal, she will definitely take care of it.
Lu Xingwan's gaze fell on the fifth sister. Seeing that she seemed to be much more active under the influence of the fourth sister beside her, he felt relieved.
She prepared to walk towards her mother.
I have already wasted quite a bit of time in the kitchen just now. I think my mother must be waiting anxiously. If I don't leave soon, I'm afraid she will be worried.
Just when Lu Xingwan was about to take her first step, two young ladies from aristocratic families suddenly came from outside the hall beside her. For some reason, they bumped into each other.
Lu Xingwan was very unwilling to be affected by these things, so she subconsciously took two steps back and distanced herself from the two people in front of her.
There were many people at the palace banquet, so collisions were common.
So Lu Xingwan had no plan to stay. She didn't even look at the two of them. She turned around and continued to walk towards her mother.
"Are you blind?" Just as Lu Xingwan took her first step, one of the two women who had just collided spoke in a sharp voice.
Lu Xingwan could only see her profile, but she was dressed gorgeously, and the pearl hairpin on her head must be worth a lot of money.
But now, just by looking at her profile, she could see that her face was somewhat distorted by anger.
After hearing this, Lu Xingwan couldn't help but frown.
The young ladies from the aristocratic families in the capital have all received a good education since childhood.
Now this woman has spoken such vulgar words in public, which is really beneath her dignity.
Lu Xingwan always thought that she was an unruly person, but even if she was unruly, she would not say such vulgar words.
Lu Xingwan felt a little upset. She subconsciously raised her hand, gently touched her forehead, and shook her head slightly, as if she wanted to clear all the upset from her mind.
The other woman who bumped into this woman was dressed quite simply.
She was wearing a simple green dress without any extravagant decorations.
But he looks very calm and composed.
When she saw the other party was angry, she did not show the slightest bit of anger.
She even knelt slightly and saluted the person who scolded her, and her tone was also somewhat apologetic: "Sorry, I didn't see it just now."
After saying this, she took a step back and prepared to turn around and leave.
But she didn't expect that the woman would become even more arrogant after seeing her being so humble.
She took a step forward and blocked the woman's way.
She even raised her voice: "Will just apologizing be enough? Now we are at the palace banquet. You did such a thing. Even if you apologize, I will not forgive you."
When Lu Xingwan heard the voice, he felt it was somewhat familiar, so he turned his head slightly to look over.
Sure enough, this person was Zheng Ling whom he had just met in Wenying Palace.
The mother and daughter must have soiled their clothes in Wenying Palace just now. I think they also know the palace rules, so they changed into clean clothes before coming to the banquet.
I just thought that what happened just now would have taught the mother and daughter some rules.
But I didn't expect that Zheng Ling was still so bold and presumptuous.
After all, this is the Xuanfell Palace, and her making such a noise is really disrespectful to the palace.
Thinking of this, Lu Xingwan raised his eyebrows slightly, and was willing to watch the show, so he stood leisurely to the side and did not step forward to stop it.
The person who was stopped by Zheng Ling before, although she looked thin, was not someone who could be bullied. She raised her head slightly and looked firmly at the arrogant Zheng Ling in front of her.
"So what do you want? Do you want me to pay you money?"
Having said this, she perhaps felt that her voice was a little loud, so she slowly lowered her voice: "This girl, my father is the Minister of War. If the girl has anything to compensate, we can discuss it later."
"Today is the palace banquet to welcome Princess Yong'an. The guests are all well-known figures in the capital. Please don't cause trouble here."
There was a little more admiration in Lu Xingwan's eyes when he looked at the woman.
