"Miss Jiang is really very majestic. I wonder if Concubine Li knows what you did today."
Nangong Jin glared at the woman in front of him.
Jiang Wenyu was also trembling when she saw Nangong Jin. Nangong was from a centuries-old family and they were not someone they could afford to offend.
Today, she beat Nangong Jin, and the Jiang family will definitely not have a good time in the future.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Mr. Nangong, I didn't know it was you." Jiang Wenyu looked at Nangong Jin with some trembling.
Nangong Jin pressed his tongue against his slapped cheek, his narrow eyes slightly glanced at Xu Yu beside him, and said angrily: "Listen carefully, the two of you, I invited the Song family's wife here, and you bully her and hit my Nangong family in the face. Although my Nangong family is not powerful, we still have a say in the palace. Remember today's horse race, don't let me see you again, otherwise it won't be such a simple end."
After saying that, Nangong Jin hurriedly pulled Xu Miaomiao away.
Song Weiwei hummed with satisfaction and left with the two of them.
Jiang Wenyu and Xu Xiang were still a little frightened. They had just offended Nangong Jin.
Nangong Jin was a young man, but he had already achieved great success. In addition, the Nangong family had been loyal to the court for generations, so their foundation was very deep. To offend the Nangong family was equivalent to sentencing his family to death.
Jiang Wenyu kept staring at the hand that had hit Nangong Jin, feeling somewhat unbelievable, with eyes full of fear.
Seeing this, Xu Xiang, who was standing by, immediately said, "Today's incident was caused by you alone, sister. Don't drag me down with you."
Jiang Wenyu looked at Xu Xiang with dissatisfaction after hearing this: "It was you who said Xu Miaomiao was a vulgar person and unworthy of attending this banquet, and dragged me to target her. Now you want to blame me for everything. No way."
Although the two were sitting far away, everything was seen by others.
Princess Duan Jing, who was sitting on the main seat, naturally noticed this change. She looked at Jia He and said, "Who is the young lady taken away by Nangong Jin? She can make Xu Xiang and Madam Jiang unhappy."
Jia He, who was standing by, poured a glass of wine for Princess Duan Jing and said with a smile, "Mother, you may not know that Madam Xu is very powerful! But Jiang Wenyu is also very capable. She even beat Nangong Jin."
Princess Duan Jing glanced at Jia He who was standing beside her, smiled, and whispered, "It's not that she can beat Nangong Jin, it's Nangong Jin who put her face forward, trying to do Madam Xu a favor."
"What the mother said was true, but the child didn't even notice it."
Jia He spoke up with a look of grievance on her face, but when she thought of something, she clung to Princess Duan Jing's arm with a look of dependence: "No matter how you put it, he is just a rough person. How can he be like me? I am the daughter of the prince, the only princess in the southern country."
"You," Princess Duan Jing smiled and tapped Jia He's nose and said, "It doesn't matter whether Nangong Jin's thoughts are on you, but you must remember that as the wife of the Nangong family and the daughter of the Prince of Jin's Mansion, you must not lose face."
"Don't worry, mother. Jiahe will never let those despicable people get on my head."
"Hahaha, this horse club is so lively!"
There was a noise coming from the door, and everyone gathered around curiously. They saw a man wearing a jade crown walking slowly towards them, followed by Song Wushao in a white robe.
When everyone saw this scene, they stood up and saluted, except Princess Duanjing who was sitting on the main throne and did not move.
Jia He, who was standing by, saw the man and said without disdain, "Why is the Fifth Prince here?"
Princess Duan Jing glanced at the man and said, "He is just a useless prince who relies on his royal bloodline to show off in front of me. You should learn from him, otherwise you won't be able to control the people under your command."
Princess Duanjing glanced at Princess Jiahe beside her and said.
When Jiahe heard this, he couldn't control the smile on his face and nodded: "Yeah."
The fifth prince slowly stepped forward and saluted Princess Duan Jing: "Greetings, aunt."
Princess Duan Jing sat up straight, and without asking him to bow and stand up, she said, "You have always been weak and don't like to attend banquets like this. Why are you here today?"
"It is precisely because I have never been here that I am curious about why this Jockey Club is so interesting. I hope my aunt will not blame me for my sudden visit today."
"Okay, get up." Princess Duan Jing spoke with a condescending look, "You are the weakest and you were poisoned a few days ago at the Jockey Club. If something happens at the Jockey Club, I won't be able to explain to the emperor. Someone send the Fifth Prince back to the palace."
After just a few words, everyone around understood what Princess Duan Jing meant. It was obvious that she wanted to drive the Fifth Prince away!
But the man was not angry. He just stood there and looked at the person in front of him with a smile.
"Why is it that my words are useless now?"
"I said to send the fifth prince back to the palace." Princess Duan Jing looked at the servant beside her with dissatisfaction.
Xiao Si was frightened by these words and immediately stepped forward: "Fifth Prince, please."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" The man was not angry after hearing this. He directly unfolded the fan in his hand, waved it twice, and said, "I came here today just to see the horse racing meeting. My father said that I have reached the age suitable for marriage, so he asked me to come."
"Oh?" Princess Duan Jing raised her eyebrows and continued, "Since it is the emperor's wish, then grant the Fifth Prince a seat."
When everyone heard this, they were so nervous that their hearts rose to their throats. After all, not everyone could use the term "grant a seat".
Princess Duanjing's words were a slap in the face of the Fifth Prince and showed that she looked down on him.
If it was any other prince, he would certainly be angry and turn against her, but the Fifth Prince was always patient. When he heard Princess Duan Jing say this, he responded, "Thank you, aunt."
As soon as the Fifth Prince and Song Wu Shao sat down, they saw Xu Miaomiao being grabbed by Nangong Jin and sitting aside.
When Xu Miaomiao saw Song Wushao, she was actually a little excited and waved to Song Wushao quickly.
But Song Wushao turned his head away, pretending not to see Xu Miaomiao.
Just as the woman was still wondering, Song Zhijin and a man came up to her and said, "Madam Xu, so you are here. It took me a long time to find you."
Song Zhijin was a little surprised to see Xu Miaomiao and Nangong Jin standing together. She concealed the jealousy in her eyes, forced a smile and looked at Xu Miaomiao.
Xu Miaomiao responded by bowing to the two people in front of her. The man beside her also bowed immediately upon seeing this and said, "Mr. Qiao greets Madam Xu."
"Song Zhijin." Nangong Jin called the full name of the woman in front of him and said, "Since you brought Madam Xu here, you should be responsible for her instead of letting her be bullied by Xu Xiang and Jiang Wenyu."
