Chapter 120 No Mercy
"It's time to go." The wife of the Duke of Huguo said, "The Ji family is so sinister and vicious that they dared to humiliate the princess and make her suffer so much. Fortunately, they saved her in time and got out of the fire pit. We have a hundred-year-old ginseng in our warehouse. You can take it to the palace later to nourish the princess."
Liu Zhenzhen nodded obediently and said, "Okay, Mom."
"Then go ahead." Lady Protector of the Country looked at Liu Zhenzhen, who was sitting next to her and showed no intention of getting up and leaving, and urged.
Liu Zhenzhen: "No hurry, I want to hear what the wife of Marquis Jing'an is here for."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the maid enter the room, bowed to the wife of the Duke of Huguo and reported: "Madam, the wife of the Marquis of Jing'an wants to see you."
"Please ask her to come in." The wife of the Duke of Protectorate brushed her skirt, sat up straight and said.
The maid responded and went out to ask for help.
Soon, the wife of Marquis Jing'an walked into the room with a smile on her face. She looked at the wife of the Duke of Huguo who was sitting at the head of the table and bowed slightly: "Madam."
The wife of the Duke of Huguo nodded slightly and said expressionlessly, "I didn't know Madam Sun was coming. I apologize for not welcoming you in person."
The tone was distant and cold, which made Lady Jing'an Marquis stunned for a moment. She said hurriedly, "I dare not. It's my sudden visit. I'm rude."
"Madam Sun, please sit down." The wife of the Duke of Huguo said, and then told the maid to serve tea.
Liu Zhenzhen bowed to the wife of Marquis Jing'an.
"I wonder why Madam Sun came here today?" asked the wife of the Duke of Huguo.
Upon hearing this, Lady Jing'an's hand, which was about to drink tea from the cup, paused, her face showing indescribable embarrassment.
This... is it so direct without even a greeting?
There's something wrong with the attitude of the wife of the Duke of Protectorate.
Madam Jing'an put down her teacup, took a deep breath to suppress the weirdness in her heart, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Madam, and I miss you very much. I have some free time today, so I came to visit you."
Logically, she should have handed the visiting card to the wife of the Duke of Protectorate and informed them in advance.
But Lady Jing'an Marquis's wife felt that because Liu Xichao loved her daughter, Lady Huguo Duke treated her with special favor, so she considered herself special and their relationship did not need to be so distant, so she came directly.
There is also a little bit of superiority in my heart.
Look, your son is determined to marry my daughter. I am different from others. No matter when I come, the Duke of Protectorate’s Mansion must welcome me politely.
Of course, Lady Jing'an Marquis did not dare to reveal this thought.
"Besides, I would like to ask Madam when she will go to ask Master Yuanzhen to combine the birth dates of the two children?" After a pause, the wife of Marquis Jing'an continued.
The implication is that why there is no further news from the Duke of Huguo's Mansion regarding the marriages of the two children.
The wife of the Duke of Huguo snorted with a fake smile: "Since Madam Sun is busy, there is no need to come. Besides, if there is any marriage between our two families that requires matching horoscopes, Madam Sun may be suffering from hypochondria."
This is a very merciless statement.
The smile on Lady Jing'an's face could no longer be maintained, and it was like a wind-dried stone wall, cracking inch by inch.
She stared blankly at the wife of the Duke of Huguo, and it took her a long while to find her voice again: "Madam... Duke of Huguo, what do you mean? You told me at the beginning that you intended to propose marriage to Qian'er on behalf of Xi Chao."
what for?
The anger that the wife of the Duke of Huguo had suppressed since she met the wife of the Marquis of Jing'an suddenly ignited. She slammed the table heavily and said in a cold voice: "I would like to ask what the Sun family means. My fourth child has deep feelings for Sun Ruqian, but she treats Xi Chao as a fool and teases her. You really raised a good daughter."
The Duke had ordered not to alert the enemy, but when she saw Luo, she thought of how Sun Ruqian had played his son around and tricked their Liu family without mercy, and she gnashed her teeth in hatred.
I really can't stand it.
Luo actually had the nerve to ask her about their marriage...
The wife of Marquis Jing'an looked at the angry wife of the Duke of Huguo and was shocked and frightened. Her mind went blank and went blank.
"What's the meaning?"
Lady Jing'an Marquis's wife asked in a daze, a surge of silent fear in her heart. Her body went limp and she almost slipped off the chair.
Qian'er... What on earth did Qian'er do to make the wife of the Duke of Protectorate so furious?
"Go back and ask your good daughter who she is working for to frame our Liu family." The wife of the Duke of Huguo said gloomily, "Come here, send the guest away."
The wife of Marquis Jing'an didn't know how she left the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
She was supported by a maid as she stood beside the carriage. She looked back at the solemn and dignified gate of the Duke's Mansion and felt her hands and feet cold and her whole body shivering.
"Hurry... hurry back home." Marquis Jing'an's face was pale and his lips trembled.
She wanted to ask Qian'er what had happened.
What does it mean to work hard for others to frame the Liu family?
How is that possible? How dare she?
"Mother, didn't father find out that it was the Ninth Prince who did it? Why did you ask Lady Jing'an to go back and ask Sun Ruqian? You could just expose the truth and make her feel ashamed."
The wife of the Duke of Huguo said, "The less she knows about what Sun Ruqian did, the more uneasy she will be. Other people's words are not as good as her own questions. I also want to know if it is as your father found out."
Liu Zhenzhen nodded in acceptance.
Then she stood up and said, "Mom, I'm leaving."
"Well, bring your guards and be careful."
Fu Yunyao's face looked rosy, and she didn't seem depressed at all because of the divorce.
In fact, when she could remember, the old prince was still alive and the Pingyang Palace was at its peak and had not declined. As the princess of the palace, she had a noble status and was the apple of everyone's eye. The education and training she received since childhood would not make her risk her life for a man who did not love her and even wanted to kill her.
When she likes, she can give it her all.
But once Fu Yunyao knew the true face of Ji Yuanwen, she would not linger on him for long.
The Ji family had brought this upon themselves.
She has a grandmother who dotes on her, parents who love her, and a younger brother and sister-in-law who protects her. There is nothing she can't cheer up for.
The maid led Liu Zhenzhen into the house.
Liu Zhenzhen bowed to Fu Yunyao.
"I've met the princess."
"Miss Liu, please get up quickly." Fu Yunyao raised her hand and said, then ordered the maid to bring a stool and serve tea.
Liu Zhenzhen sat down, took the brocade box from her personal maid Mu Jin, and said to Fu Yunyao: "This is the hundred-year-old ginseng prepared by my mother. It is for the princess to recuperate. I hope the princess will recover soon."
"Thank the Duke's wife for me." Fu Yunyao said with a faint smile.
As they were talking, the voice of a maidservant greeting was heard outside.
"The princess of the county."
Soon, Gu Zhiyin slowly walked into the room.
As soon as Liu Zhenzhen saw her, she showed joy: "Sister Gu."
"Zhenzhen." Gu Zhiyin smiled and nodded.
The maid swiftly brought a stool and placed it next to Liu Zhenzhen, then brewed a cup of tea and brought it over.
Liu Zhenzhen was a little unfamiliar and polite when facing Fu Yunyao, but after seeing Gu Zhiyin, she instantly became a chatterbox and talked non-stop.
