Wei Fu nodded obediently and followed them. Long Yin followed reluctantly. The old couple obviously wanted to intimidate Wei Fu, but they would definitely be disappointed.
After Wei Fu entered, she greeted the two people according to the rules she learned in the palace. However, after greeting them, she stood up without waiting for them to ask her to excuse herself. Then she turned around and asked the Crown Prince's Consort: "Aunt, where should Fu'er sit?"
Princess Zhong snorted coldly: "The princess is too rude!"
"You got up before I told you to. You went to someone else's house and insisted on sitting down before the host even asked you to. How did your mother teach you?"
Wei Fu asked doubtfully, "Do you want to talk to Fu'er about the rules?"
Princess Zhong always felt that there was something wrong with what she said, but she was indeed following the rules with General Wei Fu, so she just hummed and said sternly: "It is very rude of you to greet your elders without even leaving the curtain."
Wei Fu only heard Princess Zhong's "hmm" and automatically ignored the rest of the words.
She immediately became fashionable: "If we talk about etiquette, my uncle is the emperor, and my grandmother is the empress dowager. Aren't they more noble than you, Princess Zhong?"
How could Consort Zhong dare to compete with the Emperor and the Empress Dowager? She immediately said, "I'm talking to you about the rules, why are you bringing up the Emperor and the Empress Dowager?"
"Just say yes or no."
"The Emperor and the Queen Mother are naturally more noble than me."
"That's right! Fu'er's grandmother is of the same generation as you. If my grandmother is more noble than you, then I must be more noble than you! I am the daughter of a legitimate princess of the royal family. Although I have a different surname, my uncle said he would change my last name. I am also of noble status. I don't have to bow down to anyone, and I don't have to be afraid of anyone."
"If others treat me with courtesy, I should also show some courtesy to others. This is politeness and self-restraint, but it doesn't mean I need to be polite to others."
Princess Zhong choked and was speechless after being retorted by Wei Fu. Prince Zhong was the brother of the late emperor. He and the late emperor were born of the same family, but when one became king and the other became emperor, the hierarchy was already determined.
When Wei Fu came to pay his respects to them, he followed the Meng family's seniority etiquette and did not talk about the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects.
So after Wei Fu was sure that Princess Zhong wanted to teach her the rules, he discussed the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects with her.
Prince Zhong, who had been silent until then, saw that Princess Zhong was choked by Wei Fu and could not speak, so he smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Fu'er, your great-aunt is a little majestic, but she has good intentions. She is just worried that you will lose face for the royal family if you don't know the etiquette outside."
"The emperor is protecting you, so you should also be considerate of him."
Wei Fuxiao frowned, thinking that this grandpa's words were really strange. He spoke strangely when she first met him: "She is worried about her own worries, why does she have to mention Fu'er!"
"Fu'er didn't lose his manners just now. He even gave you face because you are his elders."
"Also, I didn't understand my uncle. That's what my uncle said himself! If my uncle felt that Fu'er didn't understand him, then he could have said something to Fu'er, criticized Fu'er, and taught Fu'er. But my uncle never thought that I didn't understand him. He always praised Fu'er for being capable, sensible, and well-behaved!"
"So, what exactly do you want to say? Fu'er is still young, so just say it directly. Fu'er won't understand if you keep beating around the bush!"
Long Yin almost laughed out loud when he saw Prince Zhong and Princess Zhong's faces, both of whom were choked by Wei Fu and couldn't help but lower his head to hold back his laughter.
The Crown Prince's Consort smiled and said, "Father and Mother are just concerned about the Princess."
Wei Fu was even more confused. "If they care about Fu'er, shouldn't they ask if Fu'er is happy recently, if he is feeling well, if he has eaten, what he has eaten, or send Fu'er something?"
"Oh, Fu'er understands. Maybe you don't know how to care for others? It doesn't matter. Fu'er has already taught you how to care for others!"
She originally planned to stretch out her hand, but after looking at her own fat claws, she could only speak and order: "Listen to the rain..."
Tingyu had served Wei Fu for such a long time that she understood some of his ways of doing things. She put her hands together, bent down slightly, and spread them out towards Prince Zhong and Princess Zhong, making a gesture to ask for something.
The Crown Princess was stunned.
Prince Zhong and his wife were also confused.
Long Yin could no longer hold back his laughter.
Princess Zhong glanced sharply at the Crown Prince's wife, blaming her for not knowing how to speak. The Crown Prince's wife felt very bitter, because it was clearly her father who said that he cared about the princess first!
But as a daughter-in-law, she naturally didn't dare to say anything. She could only grit her teeth and take off the bracelet on her hand and put it in Tingyu's hand: "This bracelet is my gift to the princess!"
It hurts, but this is good stuff!
But after she gave the things, Tingyu did not take her hand back, but looked at Prince Zhong and Princess Zhong with a smile.
She has always been serving the Queen Mother, so she is very confident.
Especially since these three people had clearly invited the princess to come and solve the problem, but they still wanted to make things difficult for the princess. As elders, they were disrespectful. She felt angry. The Empress Dowager, the Emperor, the Empress, and the Princess were all held in the palms of her hands. How could she let others bully them?
Since they have the guts to bully the princess, just spend money to avoid disaster!
Princess Zhong could only pull off a bracelet from her wrist with a sullen face and a forced smile. Prince Zhong could only pull a jade pendant from his waist and order the people around him to give it to Tingyu.
Tingyu then withdrew her hand.
Wei Fu also smiled and bowed to the crowd: "Thank you all for your concern. Fu'er received it."
"Since you haven't prepared a place for Fu'er to sit, then Fu'er will go and show you the house directly." After she said that, she walked out directly.
Princess Zhong and Prince Zhong had no choice but to follow quickly.
In fact, they prepared a place for Wei Fu to sit and also symbolically prepared snacks. It was true that they wanted to show Wei Fu their power, but since he was invited by them after all, they didn't want to go too far.
Because Prince Zhong had previously stood up for Prince Ping, the Emperor began to neglect Prince Zhong's Mansion. Prince Zhong's son was a good-for-nothing, so the situation of Prince Zhong's Mansion in the capital became a bit awkward, especially since Prince Ping had become a target of public condemnation.
They were quite happy that Wei Fu chose their mansion this time, but Prince Zhong wanted to re-establish the prestige of Prince Zhong's mansion, so he wanted to give Wei Fu a warning.
However, he failed to show his power and Wei Fu took away the things.
In this situation, they didn't want to keep Wei Fu and say anything more to her. They just hoped that there was no problem at home. After Wei Fu saw it, he left quickly to avoid being upset.
