Zhao Letong also had no concrete evidence. "I just felt uncomfortable looking at her. I had a hunch that she wasn't a good person. Of course, Your Highness can experience it for yourself. You don't have to worry about what I think."
Even if she was his biological mother, Zhao Letong would not let her listen to him unconditionally, let alone the eldest princess.
The eldest princess seemed to be thinking about something. "Of course I trust you. People who practice cultivation have sharper intuition. Since you don't like her, it must be her fault."
Zhao Letong was a little touched by his unconditional preference for her. Human emotions were so wonderful. He loved her so much even though they were not related by blood. Zhao Letong felt that she had made a great deal in this reincarnation.
"Your Highness is so kind to me. I really wish I had a mother as kind as Your Highness who would always love me."
The eldest princess blushed and said, "Stop talking nonsense. It will make people laugh if it gets out."
It was because he was afraid of being laughed at by outsiders, not because he was unwilling. Zhao Letong smiled even more brightly. It seemed that there was going to be another happy event in the family.
The eldest princess has already taken action against Zhao Biao. This man will never take the initiative unless he is forced. He looks mighty and stern, but he is actually quite stupid.
As for Old Madam Qi, the eldest princess had lived for so many years and had her own judgment. She asked Madam Kong to send the servants away and took Zhao Letong back to the flower hall by a detour. She found a secluded bush to hide in and happened to hear the conversation of everyone in the flower hall.
Zhao Letong gave a thumbs up. The princess was great. She actually eavesdropped. Although it was indecent, she liked it.
Someone was heard saying, "I wonder what magic medicine the princess took to become so beautiful. She seems to be ageless."
"Who says it's not true? This princess is the only one who can return from the Northern Rong. It shows how much the emperor loves her. He searched all over the world to find a magic medicine to make the eldest princess happy. After all, she has a good brother."
"But the princess accepted it calmly, which is ignorant. She has already served countless wild men, and that face is the root of disaster."
"Ahem, be careful with your words."
It was then that Old Madam Qi spoke up. She stopped them because she saw they were talking too much. She had been listening very attentively before. Why didn't she scold them earlier?
The eldest princess sneered. It turned out that she had been away for too long. These people didn't take her seriously anymore. They dared to make such plans behind her back. It was not easy for the queen to manage these ladies.
Madam Qi added, "The Princess is a very kind person, very nostalgic. It is an honor for my family that she came to celebrate my birthday. Please be careful with your words and don't let anyone spread the news and bring disaster to the other families."
Some of the ladies were stubborn: "This is the truth, everyone is talking about it, can the princess still stop talking about it?"
"Okay, today is Madam Qi's birthday, a happy occasion, so let's not talk about these unlucky things. Didn't they invite the Tan family to perform? I love listening to their operas."
Zhao Letong suffered for the eldest princess and sacrificed so much, so why did it become bad luck?
These ladies are really living such a comfortable life that they are bored to death.
Seeing Zhao Letong's angry expression, the princess felt warm in her heart. "Good girl, I know there are a lot of rumors out there. I didn't want to bother with them, but I didn't expect that my indulgence would only make them more daring. Let's be more high-profile today and let them know that my gossip is not so easy to swallow."
You still think she is unlucky. The eldest princess is also angry. You are unlucky. From now on you will be the sinner of the whole family. Let you taste the feeling of being abandoned by everyone.
The eldest princess stood up and walked out leisurely.
The flower hall was suddenly so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The ladies all opened their mouths in horror. How could the eldest princess actually eavesdrop?
Madam Qi was also shocked and almost fell off her chair. "Your Highness, where have you been?"
The eldest princess had a cold look in her eyes. She really cherished her friendship with Old Madam Qi. Perhaps it was just her wishful thinking from the beginning, and she didn't really regard her as a friend.
"I was looking for a place to take a break and cool off, but I didn't expect to have an unexpected gain. You ladies are quite dissatisfied with me.
Come on, I'm here. If you have any complaints, tell me directly. Don't gossip about me behind my back, as if I'm cruel and can't listen to anyone. "
The noble ladies knelt down and said, "Your Highness, please forgive us. We know we were wrong and have offended you."
"What have you done wrong? It's me who's wrong. I shouldn't have come back. I should have died outside."
"No, I dare not think so."
"You really don't dare? Now that you've said it, stop being so hypocritical."
The eldest princess was determined to get to the bottom of this matter, and everyone was trembling with fear.
Madam Qi pleaded, "Your Highness, today is my birthday banquet. We drank a little and talked a little boldly. Your Highness, please give me face and let it go, okay?"
The eldest princess had a complicated look in her eyes, "When I got married, I wanted to take away many daughters of court officials as dowries, and they were also Teng's concubines. You were one of them. I couldn't bear it, so I kept you.
I never thought that many years later, you would be the one to stab me. Today, I will not pursue the matter any further, and our friendship ends here."
Old Madam Qi's face was pale, as if all her bones had been drained out. She also tasted the pain of loss.
"Your Highness's kindness has always been in my heart and has been cherishing it all these years. How could Your Highness misunderstand my feelings?"
"What's the point of thinking about me? But there's a letter or a gift? Everyone can express their thoughts with words. Let's go."
He pulled Zhao Letong away without looking back, and the banquet could not continue. Everyone went home to discuss a solution with their own masters.
As a result, they were scolded by the masters, and some were even beaten. Every family was in a gloomy mood.
