After the tender beauty was reborn, the husband of the god of war competed for favor

Chapter 21 Making things difficult

After the group from Duke Guo's Mansion arrived at Prince Duan's Mansion, someone immediately informed them, and then Prince Duan and Princess Duan personally welcomed them out.

However, King Duan did not see Yan Shubai, and his eyes were a little disappointed, but he quickly covered it up.

Princess Duan is the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, and Concubine Xiao in the harem is Princess Duan's biological aunt. With the help of the Xiao family, Prince Duan can compete with the prince.

King Duan asked Yan Shubai with concern. After learning that Yan Shubai was unconscious again, he showed a worried expression on his face.

Song Jiuxi gave him a few perfunctory words and then followed Princess Duan to the backyard where the female relatives were waiting.

When I sat down, I don't know if it was intentional or not, but there was no room for Song Jiuxi in the seats assigned to the Duke's Mansion.

Yan Yuening sat down unceremoniously and glanced at Song Jiuxi, waiting to see her show.

"Is this the eldest lady of the Song family? She said she is married to General Ming?"

"What kind of marriage? It's just a sedan carried in through the back door. It's not even as good as a concubine."

"It's said to be a blessing, but I heard that General Ming is still in a coma, and I'm afraid he will be a widow soon."

Yan Shubai was not here today, and they heard that Yan Shubai had fainted again, and they didn't know when he would wake up this time.

So they looked at Song Jiuxi without scruples and laughed wantonly.

They had long heard that the eldest daughter of the Song family was illiterate, vulgar, and domineering.

Those present here are either on good terms with the female relatives of the Duke of Guo, or they are good friends with Song Wanwan.

Naturally, he was happy to see Song Jiuxi make a fool of himself.

Song Wanwan's eyes flashed with satisfaction. Song Jiuxi rarely came to such banquets, and she didn't know many female relatives in the capital.

In the eyes of outsiders, she, the eldest lady of the Changping Marquis Mansion, was inferior to Song Wanwan in every aspect.

Song Wanwan had painstakingly cultivated his reputation outside the country over the years, and everyone knew that the second young lady of the Changping Marquis Mansion was well-educated, courteous, and polite.

And under her guidance for so many years, Song Jiuxi has become a being that everyone hates.

Song Wanwan lowered her head to drink tea, hiding the sarcasm in her eyes.

Song Jiuxi stood among the crowd, glanced around coldly, and then asked: "Is this how Prince Duan's Mansion treats guests?"

Princess Duan did not show up, leaving a nanny behind. The nanny seemed to have just come to her senses and said hurriedly: "Mrs. Yan, this old slave has not arranged the arrangements well and has neglected Mrs. Yan. Come quickly, give it to Mrs. Yan."

Bring in tables and chairs."

As if receiving instructions, the two maids immediately brought a table, but they placed it near the door.

Sitting next to that seat was the female family member of a fifth-rank official in the imperial court. Auntie said apologetically: "Mrs. Yan, there is really no place elsewhere. Please forgive me, Mme. Yan."

With a "poof" sound, someone laughed, and others also laughed unabashedly.

The women who were friends with Song Wanwan deliberately said: "Song Jiuxi, you are just a concubine of General Ming. You are not supposed to be able to attend the banquet at Prince Duan's Mansion. It was Princess Duan's kindness that made her post for you. People are valuable.

If you are self-aware, if I were you, I would sit outside the door."

"Yes, Song Jiuxi, didn't you not allow Wanwan to eat with you at the table before? Have you experienced this feeling now?"

Song Wanwan said hypocritically: "That's all in the past. My sister was just unhappy at the time..."

"Wanwan, you are so kind-hearted." Lin Yixian, the eldest lady of the Changping House, said, "Song Jiuxi bullied you not once or twice, but you still spoke for her. She is a woman with a snake-hearted heart, don't let her

Cheated."

Upon hearing this, Yan Yuening said deliberately: "Sister Wanwan, I finally understand your suffering. Since Song Jiuxi entered the palace of our country, he has become extremely arrogant with a little knowledge of martial arts. He doesn't listen to discipline at all, and he can't do anything at all."

You contradicted your elders and almost touched my mother yourself. How could you stay with such a person for such a long time?"

Song Wanwan lowered his eyes with a sad expression.

In these years, she used Song Wenzhi's help to prevent Song Jiuxi from going out. And she could slander Song Jiuxi as much as she wanted outside. In the eyes of everyone, she was the one being bullied.

Song Jiuxi sneered and looked at the person who spoke at the beginning. "You said I am a concubine?"

The woman had never seen such a cold look. She panicked and said, "Isn't it? It was just a sedan that was carried into the house casually. Do you have the three rules and six etiquettes?"

Song Jiuxi suddenly said angrily: "Here comes someone. Catch this person. She slandered Princess Duan and even said that Princess Duan was just a concubine. She is so bold that even killing her with a stick is not too much."

"You, what are you talking nonsense?!" The woman pointed at her angrily, "When did I say Princess Duan?! Don't talk nonsense!"

"Everyone has heard it!" Song Jiuxi curled her lips and smiled, "You said I was a concubine, but His Majesty personally granted me the marriage, and the imperial decree was also stamped with a jade seal. You said that His Majesty personally granted me a concubine,

Prince Duan and Princess Duan were also married by His Majesty himself. Doesn’t that mean that Princess Duan is also a concubine?"

"You, you're talking nonsense! That's not what I meant!" the woman explained hurriedly.

"Then what do you mean? You think His Majesty's imperial edict was wrong? Your Majesty personally granted the marriage, but you are not satisfied?"

Defaming the imperial edict was a serious crime. The woman was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, her legs trembling.

"I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it..."

If the Holy One finds out what happened today, according to His Preference for General Ming Xiao, she will die regardless of whether she means this or not.

She collapsed on the ground in horror, and soon the ground became wet.

Song Wanwan next to her frowned in disgust. It was useless. Song Jiuxi scared her and she actually became incontinent.

Princess Duan happened to come out at this time, glanced around everyone, and asked: "What's going on?"

Mammy immediately knelt down and apologized: "It's not my fault, I forgot to arrange the position of Mrs. Yan. Now Mrs. Yan is not satisfied. This... delayed the banquet carefully arranged by the princess. It is my fault that I deserve death."

.”

This nanny was blaming Song Jiuxi for delaying the banquet.

Princess Duan said: "It is indeed your fault. I will pull you down and punish you with twenty battles."

Mammy lowered her head and was quickly pulled down. Then Princess Duan looked at Song Jiuxi and said gently: "Mrs. Yan, it's my fault that I haven't disciplined my servants well. There really is no spare position now. Look at you.

Where do you want to sit?”

Princess Duan posed this problem to Song Jiuxi. If Song Jiuxi refused to let go, then others must be driven away.

If she didn't want to offend anyone, she would sit back behind the small table by the door.

Whether she wants to offend others or wrong herself, Princess Duan wants her to make her own choice.

No matter which one she chooses, she will lose her face today.

Song Jiuxi didn't remember that she had ever offended Princess Duan, but as soon as she came over today, Princess Duan gave her a slap in the face.

She squinted her eyes and was about to speak when a voice suddenly interrupted.

"Song Jiuxi, I haven't seen you for a few days, princess. Why are you being bullied like this?"
