Chapter 351 What Are You Afraid of
Lu Xiang's eyes swept between the two people and suddenly remembered who this was.
Chen Rujin!
At the beginning, Concubine Yi wanted to ask the Queen for grace in Jingren Palace to take a concubine for her son.
The reason was also very strange, because the second prince wanted to take a girl from the Liu family as a concubine, so her son also wanted one, and Chen Ruijin was prettier than Liu Anyu.
Although the second prince's concubine was finally chosen to be another concubine of the Liu family, Liu Anhui
It seems that the Third Prince has not given up on Chen Ruijin, and he has already let the Third Princess know his feelings.
Chen Rujin came to the banquet, could it be that she was invited by the third prince?
After all, the Third Imperial Concubine hated her so much that she would definitely not send her an invitation.
The Third Imperial Concubine looked at Chen Ruijin's beautiful face and wished she could destroy it.
If someone of lower birth than her was allowed to marry as a concubine, she would not be so nervous. But Chen Ruijin's birth was higher than hers. If she was allowed to marry, how would she, the principal wife, cope with the situation?
More importantly, this woman is the one the Third Prince wants to marry.
She has status and the love of men. When she has a child, the Third Princess feels that she will most likely have to give up the throne.
How is this possible?
She didn't say anything, so Chen Ruijin just sat on her knees.
The people in the pavilion were confused and looked at the two men suspiciously.
After a while, until Chen Rujin's legs were shaking from the pain, Sanhuangdao's voice, as cold as water, sounded faintly: "No need to be polite."
Chen Ruijin stood up and faced the hostility of the three imperial concubines. She walked to the back of the crowd with an expressionless face and sat down.
Seeing her indifferent look, the Third Princess became angry again.
Bitch, you dare to be so arrogant in front of her before you even enter the door, aren't you just relying on the power of the third prince?
The Third Princess suppressed the hatred in her heart and put on a forced smile to deal with everyone.
Suddenly, a maid came up to the Third Imperial Concubine and whispered something in her ear. The Third Imperial Concubine then said to the ladies in the waterside pavilion:
"I have to leave for a while because of something. Please feel free to go. The flowers in the garden are blooming beautifully. You may want to go and take a look."
Everyone responded and stood up to see him off respectfully.
After the three imperial concubines left, many young ladies stood up and went out in twos and threes.
"I heard that the Third Prince invited many young masters from aristocratic families to play today. Are they in the garden now?"
"You'll know after you go and take a look."
"Let's go, let's go."
Song Zhenzhen walked up to Lu Xiang and said with a smile, "Miss Lu, would you like to join us?"
Lu Xiang smiled and shook his head: "No, I'm fine sitting here."
Being with Song Zhenzhen, who knows what this guy is up to.
Seeing Lu Xiang's refusal, Song Zhenzhen shrugged and left with her followers.
"Who dares to reject your invitation, Zhenzhen?"
"You really think you are the daughter of the Queen. How dare you be so arrogant as the daughter of a mere vice minister."
"I don't know what you are so proud of."
"You guys, please stop talking." Song Zhenzhen said in a helpless yet tolerant tone.
Several people spoke up for Song Zhenzhen one after another. Their voices were not loud, but they were not far away and were clearly heard by Lu Xiang.
Lu Xiang glanced at his lips speechlessly and didn't take it to heart.
When most people in the pavilion had left, a noble-looking woman came in, arm in arm with another person with a slightly bulging belly, chatting and laughing.
After walking in, I found that it was the Second Imperial Concubine and the Sixth Princess, and Concubine Xu who followed behind the Second Imperial Concubine.
"Greetings to the Second Imperial Concubine, greetings to the Sixth Princess, and greetings to Concubine Xu." Those who remained stood up and saluted.
"Everyone, get up." The Second Princess said with a smile.
Everyone stood up.
Someone looked at the Sixth Princess and said, "Princess, you are pregnant. Please sit down. It looks like you are four or five months pregnant."
The Sixth Princess chuckled and nodded: "More than four months."
"Ah, I haven't heard of this before."
"When I first became pregnant, the fetus was unstable. The imperial physician had been trying to keep me healthy, but the situation did not improve until three months later. The prince consort was worried, so he forced me to lie in bed for a month before he felt relieved." said the Sixth Princess.
When she talked about her children and her husband, her whole face was filled with a happy smile.
Lu Xiang hid behind the crowd, and when everyone was surrounding the Sixth Princess and asking about her well-being, he quietly slipped out.
Neither the Second Imperial Concubine nor the Sixth Princess were people worthy of her making friends.
Lu Xiang left the water pavilion and wandered aimlessly in the mansion. After asking the servants in the mansion, she walked towards the lotus pond.
The garden of the Third Prince's Mansion was very large. Lu Xiang walked and stopped, marveling at the scenery in the garden.
There is a separate area where lush peonies are planted, standing tall and graceful in the wind.
I could hear the laughter of men and girls. They were reciting poems and composing couplets in front of me, and there were also applause and praise, as if someone was competing in archery.
Lu Xiang walked in the opposite direction of the bustling noise. She originally just wanted to have some quiet time, but when she heard voices behind the rockery in front of her, she felt unwell.
"I wonder what instructions the Third Imperial Concubine has for me?" The person who spoke had a clear and pleasant voice.
"Chen Rujin, I warn you, stay away from the Third Prince, or I will not forgive you.
Chen Rujin glanced at the Third Imperial Concubine calmly and said, "The Third Imperial Concubine should tell the Third Prince to stay away from me and stop wasting time on me."
To the Third Princess' ears, these words were clearly Chen Ruijin's boasting.
It's not her who is pestering His Highness, but His Highness who is pestering her, Chen Ruijin.
The Third Princess clenched her fists in anger and said, "Don't be complacent. His Highness is just interested in you for a while. After a while, he will forget about you."
When the Third Princess said this, she herself didn't believe it.
But she cannot be discouraged, otherwise she will lose to Chen Ruijin in momentum.
Chen Ruijin was unmoved by the Third Royal Concubine's words: "The Third Royal Concubine specially sent me a message and called me out to talk to tell me this? Since you said that the Third Prince was just attracted to me for a while, then what are you afraid of? He is just a man, and it is not worth it for you to spend so much time to deal with me. The Third Royal Concubine is so capable, why don't you go to the Third Prince to make trouble? You don't dare, right? The Third Prince doesn't have deep feelings for you. If you make trouble again, it will only wear out his last bit of patience with you, so you can only come to embarrass me."
The Third Princess was so angry that her body trembled, and she raised her hand and slapped her.
"Who are you, you bitch? How dare you speak to me like that?" The Third Imperial Concubine roared in anger, "Come here, Chen Rujin is committing treason, slap him in the face."
Her face was grim. Chen Ruijin's words were heartbreaking for the Third Princess.
The third prince likes Chen Rujin, how can she not be afraid?
After she knew about this, she didn't dare to go to the Third Prince to make trouble, otherwise, as Chen Rujin said, she would use up the last bit of friendship that the Third Prince had for her...
