Chapter 182: Leaving in Angry
Xing Zhao smiled, his eyes full of anticipation for a good show.
Shang Zhiping nodded, and followed the two of them back.
There was originally a peaceful atmosphere in the front hall.
Old Madam Gu greeted the princes, princesses and consorts with a smile.
They are people of their age who have truly experienced the heyday of the Gu family, so they feel a lot of emotion when they see Old Madam Gu at this moment.
"Mrs. Gu hasn't been here for a while. She should stay longer this time."
"Thank you, Prince De, for your concern. This trip to the north is also a show of filial piety from the children. I will spend more time with them so that they can worry less."
Prince De also had some friendship with the former Marshal Gu. Although they were not very close, they could still talk to each other.
As soon as he started talking, others joined in the fun.
Princess Yuehua said with a smile.
"The Princess's Mansion is already preparing for the Spring Outing Banquet. Madam Gu, please come and have fun."
"Thank you for the invitation, Princess. I will definitely be there."
After a few polite words, Madam Gu, who was fine before, covered her chest and had difficulty breathing the moment she saw Princess Fu.
Everyone was so scared that they rushed to help.
Especially Mrs. Guo, the shouting voice didn't sound like that of a woman in her seventies at all.
"What happened to you, old sister? Someone come quickly, please call a doctor!"
Among those present today were Doctor Wang and his family.
So after hearing the cry, Doctor Wang immediately stepped forward to take the patient's pulse and treat him.
Then, under the concern of everyone, he spoke.
"The old lady has palpitations and cannot stand stimulation. It is better to help her sit in the back and rest for a while, otherwise something big will happen."
Once he opened his mouth, who would still doubt it?
So Shang Ji stepped forward and hugged Old Madam Gu and left. When he left, he did not forget to take another look at the "culprit", Princess Fu.
Although he didn't say a word more, his meaning was already very clear.
As if her presence was so unpleasant.
Princess Fu was furious.
She was humiliated by Shang Ji at the door, and she didn't say or do anything after entering the mansion. But it was Madam Gu who started to act first.
If this wasn't an attempt to embarrass her, what could it be? But she had been in the palace for many years, so she naturally knew that she couldn't act rashly. However, she felt angry and embarrassed, and soon her face turned red.
That look made everyone present watch the excitement.
All those present had made great contributions to the Daxing Dynasty, so even though they knew that the royal family could not be joked about, they would not bow down to them.
Besides, everyone knows how Aunt Shang became the Princess of Fu.
Even though more than ten years have passed, the things she had done in the past would always be brought up again and ridiculed when she was "down and out".
So when Princess Fu looked at the expressions and eyes of the crowd, her heart was in turmoil.
But the more this happened, the more she would not leave.
You know, if she was really such a thin-skinned person, she wouldn't be in her current position.
So, after taking a long breath, he pretended nothing had happened and chatted with Princess Yuehua.
Seeing this, everyone withdrew their gazes and started chatting and laughing with the people in front of them.
Princess Yuehua was originally talking to the Crown Princess. Now Princess Fu came over and pretended to be familiar with them, then interrupted them with a smile.
"I haven't seen you for a few days. The Crown Princess looks a lot younger now. It seems like she and the Crown Prince are deeply in love."
She did have the intention of trying to please him, but the Crown Princess knew the situations of the Shang, Gu and Wei families very well, so she spoke in a balanced manner as usual.
"Princess Fu is still as beautiful as she was back then."
The Crown Princess smiled gracefully, but if you looked closely you could see that the smile did not reach her eyes at all.
Then he said lightly.
"I haven't seen my grandmother for a while, and I need to go talk to her more. I won't be accompanying Aunt Yuehua and Princess Fu. You guys can chat slowly."
After saying that, he turned around and went to see Mrs. Guo.
Such an attitude was already very obviously alienated, and Princess Yuehua was not stupid so she could naturally tell what that meant.
Therefore, he was still somewhat unhappy with Princess Fu's overestimation of her own abilities.
Although the two of them were on good terms on weekdays, that was only based on a happy and harmonious relationship. Now, because of Old Madam Gu, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister Guo's party were very wary of Princess Fu.
Princess Yuehua was also wondering whether she should distance herself from them.
Therefore, the look he gave Princess Fu was not as intimate as before.
I also made an excuse and went to another place saying I needed to change clothes.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Finally, Princess Fu was left standing there awkwardly, and the ladies who used to be on good terms with her pretended not to see anything.
No one wants her to get involved.
Seeing this, although Princess Fu looked arrogant, she really wanted to ruin the scene in her heart.
In the end, I could only find a seat and sit down helplessly.
But he still stood straight, not wanting anyone to laugh at him.
The side hall was full of people.
The two aunts from the Gu family, Gu Xiaolang, and everyone living in the general's mansion were there.
Madam Gu has gotten much better after the "diagnosis and treatment". She was just acting, so she naturally wouldn't act too serious.
She just needed to let people know her attitude, after all, she would have to have a banquet later.
If she wasn't there to guard the opportunity, many people would probably cause trouble.
So, after sitting for a while, he spoke to Shang Ji and Du Jingyi and his wife.
"I have nothing to do. I will leave after a short rest. But after today, I am sure that Princess Fu will vent her anger on you two. Can you blame me, an old woman?"
Shang Ji didn't care at all and said with a cold snort.
"Just now she brought Shang Qilang and tried to enter the mansion, but was stopped by my grandson at the door. The Gu family and the Wei family have never been on good terms. What does this have to do with grandma?"
Du Jingyi on the side also said with a firm look in his eyes.
"Don't worry, grandma. Your granddaughter-in-law will be able to deal with any problem."
Seeing that both of them were so confident, Madam Gu didn't say anything more.
The third and fourth aunts glanced at Old Madam Gu's face and spoke when they felt there was nothing wrong.
"We are watching here, you two should leave quickly. There are so many people in this room, it will be troublesome if you don't greet them."
Mrs. Xing did not come with them and is still wandering around in the front hall.
Naturally, they couldn't stay for long.
Thinking of this, Shang Ji nodded and said.
"Then I'll trouble you two aunts to come and wait for the feast to begin. I'll ask someone to come and invite you."
"Go, go, it's nothing."
After resting for a while, the couple went out.
The Crown Prince is still here, the Crown Princess is still here, and several princes, princesses, and so on are still here. It's impossible for them to just abandon him like this.
