The Ding Prince's Mansion is also among the invitations from the Sixth Prince's Mansion.

However, it was not that Princess Xiangshan was grateful to Su Yiqing for her and invited her specifically, but that she could not be missed by the rules.

There are some banquets, whether they come or not, and whether they don’t invite them is another matter. Even if they know that they don’t come back, they still have to post them. They can’t be careless at all. Many new wives offend people because of their poor grasp of this.

When the Sixth Prince's Mansion came, he did not expect the Princess to come.

However, when Su Yiqing sent a servant to reply and said that she would go to the appointment on time if she was not surprised, Princess Xiangshan couldn't help but be stunned.

This should be the first time that Princess Ding attended a banquet from another family after she rushed to the border, right? She actually gave face to her?

Could it be because of the friendship that night? Or maybe there is another reason? Princess Xiangshan was a little nervous for a moment, and she vaguely felt that this was a big deal.

Princess Ding has not left the mansion for a long time, let alone to go to another family to attend a banquet. This will inevitably give the outside world a signal that Prince Ding's Mansion will be in good terms with the Sixth Prince's Mansion.

For her, it may be a good thing. Those who are joking will think a little bit more. If they think farther, they will think about the relationship between the Meng clan and the Great Zhou. Even if they are closer, it will be no harm to the Sixth Prince's Mansion when they are in good contact.

But why did Princess Ding agree to come to the banquet?

Princess Xiangshan felt that Princess Ding didn't look like she suddenly felt pity for her. It wasn't that she felt that Princess Ding was not in a good mood, but she just felt that she didn't look like someone who cared about such trivial matters. If she wanted to help, she would help a lot. Come and block everyone's mouths and let her suffer less gossip. In fact, it was not very helpful.

Moreover, that night, Princess Ding suddenly appeared and saved her from danger, which was even more strange. Unexpectedly, Princess Ding had martial arts and was particularly good at light skills, and she didn't look like an ordinary lady from a family.

But for a while, there were too many facts that happened to her, and the changes were too fast. For a moment, she almost thought that she wanted to get rid of the identity of the Sixth Prince's Concubine, regain freedom, return to her hometown and find a real man to start her life again.

That night, the carriage was approaching the city gate, and it seemed that it was only a few steps away from the gorgeous cage. As a result, she was only a few steps away from her. She was going to become someone else's deceased soul. Even if she died, she probably didn't know who was harmed by her.

She thought about it for a long time afterwards.

There are too many people who have the motivation to kill her. The first thing she thought of was Lian Yufeng. Lian Yufeng insisted on provoking war between the two countries. As long as she died inexplicably on the streets of Dazhou, the violent clan would have to raise an army to punish her. This represents the dignity of the violent clan. Even if she knew that the chance of victory was not great, she would have to fight. Otherwise, how could the violent men still look up?

Lian Yufeng wanted to kill her. Princess Ding knew about this and wanted to stop her. She happened to appear and saved her again. This is the only reasonable explanation.

She once wanted to write a book to tell her father about this, which made her father wary, but in the end the letter was not written. Aunt Feng, whom she trusted the most, died. She could not trust anyone now. If the letter accidentally fell into the hands of others, it would cause an uproar. Anyway, the relationship between the Meng Clan and the Great Zhou is so tense now, so there is no need for too many reminders.

Of course there is another more reasonable possibility, that is, the night happened purely a play. The Ding Mansion first sent a killer to chase her, and then asked the Ding Princess to rescue her, gain her trust, and then use her trust to do something.

That night, Princess Ding said, recalling in her mind over and over again, she generally doesn't believe too much about what a person she is not familiar with, but at the same time, she is also a woman. As a woman, sometimes she believes more in her intuition than rational judgment.

Princess Xiangshan’s intuition told her that Princess Ding is a good person, not like someone who planned a bloody drama.

Anyway, she was ready.

A banquet in a few days is no longer a banquet to deal with for her.

...

It was early morning of the day when we went to the banquet.

Su Yiqing asked Lu Teng to put on her delicate makeup, while Luo Cao was helping her comb her complicated hair bun.

Next to her was the gorgeous clothes she had just made two days ago, embroidered with gold and silver thread, and the shiny purple gem jewelry on the dressing table. She probably shone brightly.

The so-called "rich family smells like wine and meat", and the road is frozen to death. This is a portrayal. After getting married, she has several large boxes of gorgeous clothes, which has not been worn for most of the time. However, she still has to make new clothes all year round. Once there is a banquet, she has to make new styles in the city a few days in advance.

This is why the great families in Yancheng, especially noble families, will lose so quickly once a man is not in his hands to hold the power. Without the power, he will naturally have fewer investments. However, the people in the mansion have become accustomed to the expenses after glory. It is not an exaggeration to say that spending money is like flowing water.

No matter how rich your family is, you can easily spend it in just a few years.

She didn't want to be so extravagant, but Lu Teng said that all noble families are like this. If the princess doesn't want to attract attention, it must be like this.

Some women in the inner hut are very bored and pay special attention to some details. Princess Ding only has two masters. If they are too frugal and the expenses in the mansion are small, there will inevitably be people who doubt what to save for?

Some people who are shallow in mind only laughed at each other behind their backs, saying that the princess grew up in the countryside and the nature of a wealth-guarding slave is harmless. Some people who are very scheming will doubt whether the money is short of money in the mansion? Without big expenses, the money is short of money. Where has the money spent in the Dingwang Mansion been spent? Deeply, the consequences are terrible.

The princess is kind-hearted. If she uses money to do good deeds, it won’t work. She will be said to be seeking fame. A man with too much power in her hands will not be a good thing at first sight.

Therefore, in addition to spending this money yourself, it is not enough to keep it moldy.

There is no way, I can only do the clothes all seasons, eat what should be eaten and what should be used. Not to mention it is too extravagant, it is just not much worse than other noble ladies of the same status.

I spent almost a morning dressing up, learned from the last time I met Du Juan, and put on heavy makeup, and I must ask myself not to recognize myself on the camera.

It would be better to be laughed at by others than to see something. When she is at her current position, her taste can no longer affect the overall situation.

A small flaw may make people feel more at ease. People will be more afraid of those perfect people. If she is good, others will think that she is Lian Yufeng's virtuous support, which will easily cause trouble.

In this way, after Su Yiqing finished dressing up, she went out under the first hustle and bustle of maids and servants.

She was greeted by a cousin of the Sixth Prince. Her surname was Han, a wife of the declining Marquis’s mansion. If she wanted to continue to maintain her declining nobles, she had to curry favor with the right people, but everyone who was in power rushed to curry favor with her, and it was not her turn. As a last resort, she could only covet those who were not very powerful.

There are no elders in the Sixth Prince's Mansion. When there are banquets, they are all close elders and sisters-in-law who help to cook. But recently everyone has avoided Princess Xiangshan. Princess Xiangshan doesn't want to ask others. Fortunately, Mrs. Han did not show too distant, probably because their family is far away from the center of power, and it is already like that. It won't be worse.

Maybe I also want to have a gamble and burn the cold stove. If the Meng tribe and Dazhou make up again that day, and now I will please Princess Xiangshan, there will be great benefits in the future.

Mrs. Han doesn't look so good at socializing. Seeing Su Yiqing dressed up in a good manner, she seemed a little reserved. She said a few words on the scene, but she seemed a little nervous, probably because she was afraid of offending others. Nowadays, the outside world said that this Princess Ding doesn't have a good temper, especially after giving birth to a child and sitting firmly in the position of princess, she has an extremely domineering personality. While Princess Ding is away, she drove all the maids who are already a little bit of color out of the mansion.

The elders of Beppu came to the house and did not give him any face and would not see him.

Su Yiqing didn't know what Mrs. Han was thinking, but someone like her who was not very sensitive to clothing could easily see that the clothes Mrs. Han was wearing were obviously outdated and the quality did not look very new. It can be seen that the Han family was indeed not able to wear several clothes that could not even wear them.

Along the way, the two did not talk much. Su Yiqing didn't want to have too much contact with people, while Mrs. Han couldn't find the topic and dared not speak. She just remained silent all the way and came to the flower hall. There were quite a few people in the flower hall.

But Su Yiqing glanced over and knew fewer people. And judging her identity based on her clothes, these ladies, who were dressed in decent clothes, were obviously one level lower than those who attended the banquets she attended in the past.

The slightly familiar face is Li from the Prince of Guo County’s Mansion, and the Prince of Guo County and the Prince of Guo County did not come. I listened to the introduction again.

Sure enough, those who came were all the wives who were not very powerful in the various deeds, or those who did not control the family, such as the second son's wife, the daughter-in-law of the other branch, which could barely represent the various deeds, which gave the Sixth Prince face so that they would not offend others. No matter how the Sixth Prince was, they were still the emperor's son, and the emperor gave the house to the house and it was difficult to give face.

Compared to Princess Xiangshan, the group of ladies obviously wanted to curry favor with Princess Ding who is now in power.

Unfortunately, Su Yiqing's face was always faint, and she felt a little bit like she was keeping others from afar. They didn't dare to act too hard to avoid backfire.

When all the guests arrived, Princess Xiangshan ordered the banquet to start.

The meal was delicious and the banquet was not for eating. If the host was active and there were a few of the guests invited to speak and speak well and liven up the atmosphere, it would be fine, but if the host was taciturn and could not even force a smile, how could the guests dare to speak first? Most of the visitors this time had a low status and were sent by the family to make up for the numbers, so they were even more afraid of flattering and slapping on the horse's legs.

In such a dull atmosphere, everyone only knows to eat, and the food on the table consumes much more than the weekly banquet.

After having a meal, Princess Xiangshan, who is the master, has to take everyone to visit the new house.

The group of people was in groups of three or three, and slowly, some of them were dispersed.

At this time, Princess Xiangshan walked to Su Yiqing, and the two walked among the dense bushes of flowers and trees. The maids seemed to be behind, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Princess, look at my garden, how is it arranged?" Princess Xiangshan said these irrelevant topics.

Su Yiqing looked at it. The flowers were full of green willows. In fact, she never had a high taste for the layout of the surrounding scenery. She was worried and uneasy in her early years, and then she lived a wandering life. How could she have the leisure to study these things? In other words, when she was in Yuanping Bo Mansion, she learned some appreciation, etc., but she also learned it all in a little bit.

If someone asked this, Su Yiqing might have searched her heart and tried to go to a banquet a few words. However, after that night, they didn't talk about each other and knew each other more. Even the more artful and elegant style seemed redundant, and she said, "I'm not very proficient in these things. Anything that is lush with trees and bright flowers is almost the same in my eyes."

"Is that? I also like flowers that are particularly good-looking." Princess Xiangshan said and smiled, "I grew up in the Meng tribe. Wild flowers are everywhere on the grassland and in the forest. I have seen the most brilliant and charming flowers. On the grassland, there are a large area of ​​wild flowers as tall as a person. On the grassland, there are a large area of ​​wild flowers that are as tall as a person. They ride horses in the sea of ​​flowers. Occasionally one or two of them are particularly high. The petals brush across their faces, just like the mother's hand when they were a child... That was the most beautiful thing in time. My mother was a noble girl from Dajing, and her hands are very soft. They are different from the Meng tribe women. I will always remember..."

Princess Xiangshan said, her voice lowered, and there was a faint light in her eyes.

Su Yiqing thought about it for a while. It seemed that in the past few decades, she had never heard of the Meng clan and Dajing. If she was really the noble daughter of Dajing, she would have been in the Meng clan... there might be only one reason, she was abducted or was captured during the war. When she listened to Princess Xiangshan's tone, it seemed that her mother had passed away for a long time, and she had been vaguely remembered her mother's hand.

I think Princess Xiangshan is also an unfortunate woman.

The biological mother is a foreigner. She must have been cursed by the Feng Clan. This is probably why, even though she was obviously used as a chess piece, she still wanted to seek benefits for the Feng Clan, dealing with her carefully, and even swallowing her anger to please the noble ladies who flattered the Zhou Dynasty.

Su Yiqing remembered when she was married to Lian Yufeng as a relative princess.

At that time, I had never seen Lian Yufeng. The Great Zhou was described as hell by Dajing. Men were savage and rude. However, in fact, many customs of Dazhou and Dajing are similar, not that scary, but because of inconvenient transportation, some women in the inner husband thought that foreign tribes were really that scary.

Thinking about it again, when she was married, she had no family and country in her heart, and she had never thought about fulfilling her obligations to maintain the friendship between the two countries. She was thinking about how to escape after marrying, and the only little so-called kindness was to think about how not to implicate the dowry servants.
