Chapter 279 What pot goes with what lid
For some unknown reason, Xiao Xiao suddenly showed a sinister smile to Lu Xiang and said to Miss Qian, "What do you mean we are so proud? It's just that the fourth daughter of the Lu family is the concubine of my eldest brother, so I invited the Lu family."
In Xiao Xiao's opinion, being favored by the Empress is not as good as being the niece of Concubine Shu.
Who knows when you might accidentally offend the queen and end up being disliked?
Xiao Xiao's voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was loud enough for everyone in the pavilion to hear. The room fell silent in an instant. Everyone looked at Xiao Xiao with strange expressions, then at Lu Xiang, all of them were stunned by the news.
Because they haven't heard of it.
Miss Qian looked at Xiao Xiao's smug expression as if she had seen a ghost, and she felt terrible.
This person is probably stupid. Even if he wants to bully someone, he should consider who the target is.
Miss Qian suddenly moved away from Xiao Xiao in silence.
She didn't know anything else, she only knew that if Lu Xiang went to complain to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother would definitely kill those who bullied Lu Xiang.
After all, the news that Liu Anyao was punished by the Queen had spread throughout the palace.
Although she was not qualified to enter the palace.
Lu Xiang raised his eyes and looked at the pretty girl in front of him. She was as annoying as ever. In his previous life, he had tried hard to please her, but she would be friendly on the surface and then turn around and plot against him with Lu Mingzhu...
"Young Master Xiao suddenly went to the Liu family to propose marriage in a high-profile manner when he was already engaged to my fourth sister, which caught us off guard. My fourth sister is only the daughter of an assistant minister, and a concubine. How can she compare with the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Liu? She had no choice but to be a concubine. Why does Miss Xiao have to ridicule us? After all, my fourth sister is also wronged."
From the person: “…” This sentence contains a lot of information!!!
"What does Miss Third mean by this?" someone asked in astonishment, feeling that his imagination was not enough.
Lu Xiang shook his head helplessly: "I'm sorry for making a fool of myself by saying something that I didn't say."
He looked like he didn't want to say more.
But this makes people imagine even more.
It was shocking enough that the daughter of a minister became a concubine of a merchant's son, but who would have thought that there would be such a twist?
In order to curry favor with the rich and powerful, Xiao Muheng went to the Liu family to propose marriage without canceling the engagement. Afterwards, the Lu family found out and had to endure the consequences because of Prime Minister Liu's power.
As for why the engagement was not cancelled, no one could guess.
But it doesn’t affect their understanding.
In the final analysis, it was Xiao Muheng and Liu Anyao who forced his good fiancée to become a concubine.
Even if she is a concubine's daughter, she can't be treated badly like this, right?
Some people looked down on Liu Anyao in their hearts.
She is really shameless. First she had an affair with a man, and then she stole someone else's fiancé to preserve her own reputation. Why did I always think that Liu Anyao was so high and noble?
It's true that you should wear the lid according to the pot.
Didn't Xiao Muheng marry Liu Anyao, whose reputation was damaged, just for the sake of power?
Unconsciously, Lu Xiang framed Xiao Muheng and Liu Anyao.
Xiao Xiao looked at the people sitting there looking at him strangely, his face turning pale and blue, and he hurriedly explained: "No...it's not like that, don't listen to her nonsense."
Originally, this matter was only known to their family and the Liu family. Now that Lu Xiang had exposed it in person, Xiao Xiao knew that he had gotten into trouble. Even if these people didn't dare to say anything in person, they would definitely be talking about it behind his back.
I'm afraid it won't be long before it gets out.
Lu Xiang, this bitch, is she here to cause trouble on purpose?
"It doesn't matter whether I'm talking nonsense or not. Now Young Master Xiao is going to marry Miss Liu, and my fourth sister will become a concubine." Lu Xiang shook his head gently and said.
"I don't think it's nonsense."
"Well, didn't you see that Xiao Xiao's face changed?"
"It's not too heavy, isn't it? It's a done deal. If I say too much, will Liu Anyao give up the position of legal wife?"
"Are you kidding? The Lu family is also unlucky. Who would have thought that Xiao Muheng is such a shameless person."
"Hush, stop talking. The Liu family is extremely powerful. If they hear this, everyone sitting here will be in trouble."
After the words were spoken, everyone nodded sympathetically, shut their mouths wisely, and quickly changed the subject.
For the sake of his own daughter, he forced someone else's fiancée to become a concubine. Who would dare to offend Prime Minister Liu?
After Xiao Muheng and Liu Anyao's shamelessness, Liu Xiang was once again given the reputation of being a tyrannical and tyrannical person in everyone's mind.
Xiao Xiao bit her lip tightly and wanted to explain something, but when she heard them talking about other things, she would be accused of being vague if she brought the topic back, so she could only glare at Lu Xiang hatefully.
The ladies around her all moved away from her at the same time, chatting about their clothes and jewelry, and no one paid any attention to her anymore.
Xiao Xiao suddenly felt very aggrieved.
A bunch of unpresentable people, they don't even know whose house they are sitting in, and they actually ignore her, their master.
No matter how thick-skinned Xiao Xiao was, she could not sit still any longer. She hurriedly said that she would go back to change her clothes and left as if escaping. The gazes of those people who fell on her intentionally or unintentionally were like invisible slaps in the face, making her face burn.
When he went out, he ran into Mrs. Xiao.
"Xiaoxiao, why aren't you inside accompanying the guests?" Mrs. Xiao pulled her daughter and said unhappily.
Xiao Xiao's face stiffened slightly: "I'm tired." After saying that, he left without looking back.
“This child…”
Madam Xiao frowned as she watched Xiao Xiao running away, then smiled and walked into the waterside pavilion: "Everyone, please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
Everyone looked at Madam Xiao and couldn't help but smile meaningfully. They said politely, "Today is your son's big day, and Madam Xiao is bound to be busy. It's good for us to sit here and chat. Madam Xiao doesn't have to worry about us."
And now, I suddenly learned a big piece of gossip.
Mrs. Xiao had no idea what everyone was thinking. She only thought that these people were trying to please her because her son had married Prime Minister Liu's daughter. Little did she know that everyone was silently laughing at her.
After sitting for a while, Lu Xiang saw Lu Yao coming slowly.
After entering the pavilion, Lu Yao saw Lu Xiang at a glance and walked towards her.
Lu Xiang sat aside and made room for Lu Yao.
"Third sister, how long have you been here?" Lu Yao asked after sitting down.
Lu Xiang smiled and said, "Just a little while, just finished a play."
Lu Yao looked at her suspiciously: "Starting the opera so early?" Aren't you going to wait for the bride to come in?
Lu Xiang chuckled and whispered into Lu Yao's ear what had just happened.
Lu Yao suddenly showed an expression that didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"But then again, I didn't see the fourth sister."
Lu Xiang said: "The Xiao family will not let her appear at this occasion today. Taking a concubine before marrying a wife, and letting a concubine appear at the wedding, isn't this a slap in Liu Anyao's face?"
