Chapter 343 Shen Lanzhi, He is the Proof
Chapter 343 Shen Lanzhi, He is the Proof
When I turned around, it was indeed Lucy Liu and Chen Wan'er.
"I was wondering why I didn't see you two just now. I thought you took advantage of the chaos when Prince Li arrived and left. I didn't expect you to sneak in!"
"How courageous and shameless you are!"
Seeing Liu Yuling approaching, someone greeted her enthusiastically, "Sister Yuling, Sister Wan'er, do you know these two? Whose families are they from, and why are they so barbaric? Hua Gu and Yun Mei were bullied by them and cried!"
"Hmph, what young lady? They are just two daughters of merchants!" Liu Yuling looked arrogant, with contempt in her eyes.
"Just now outside, they even tried to sneak into Shanghe Mansion with a fake invitation, but Xuehan and I exposed them."
"Who knew they would sneak in while Prince Li was there, taking advantage of the chaos outside! They're truly ruthless!"
"Ah? Sneaked in?" Someone was surprised and couldn't believe it.
How could Shanghe Mansion make such a mistake?
"Lucy Liu, are you itchy again? How about I slap your right cheek too, to save you from having to cover yourself up with layers of red rouge?"
Zhang Zhirou looked at her coldly, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her mouth. This woman really only remembers to eat and not to be beaten!
Because she had been slapped by Zhang Zhirou before, she applied thick red rouge on her face to cover up the red fingerprints.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes stopped on Lucy Liu's cheek.
I had just thought her makeup was a bit too heavy, and thought it was because her maid had been too heavy-handed. Unexpectedly, it was actually to cover up the marks of a beating.
Who is this woman across from me? How dare she hit Lucy Liu?
Is she really just a merchant’s daughter?
Liu Yuling felt the scrutiny of the crowd, her cheeks flushed, and she pointed at her angrily. Just as she was about to curse, she remembered the situation where she was fighting four people alone outside, and the impulse suddenly disappeared.
"This is Shanghe Mansion, full of Beidi masters. Do you dare to attack here?"
"Humph, so what about the Shanghe Mansion? If you dare to pick a fight, don't blame me for being ruthless! Besides, we came in with Shen Lanzhi's invitation, not by sneaking in! Be careful what you say!"
Hearing this, everyone's face changed, only Lucy Liu's face had a very complicated expression, which was a mixture of sarcasm, ridicule, and a bit of provocation.
Zhang Zhirou couldn't bear to watch, "Liu Yuling, is your face cramping? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't act like a fool!"
Lucy Liu's face froze, and then she became angry and embarrassed.
"You said you came in with Prince Lanzhi's invitation? You are so ignorant!"
"Although Prince Lanzhi has only been here a short time, all the children of the aristocratic families in Kyoto know that Prince Lanzhi dislikes socializing. He even rejected a visit from the Prince of Zhennan! Yet you say that Prince Lanzhi personally invited you to his residence?"
"Who do you think you are? You can't even come up with a reasonable excuse. It's hilarious!"
"you!"
Zhang Zhirou was furious. These so-called ladies from wealthy families really didn't understand what people were saying!
What's so special about Shen Lanzhi's invitation?
"Where is Shen Lanzhi? Is she dead? Why doesn't she come out to explain?!" She really didn't want to say a single word to this Liu Yuling. It was like talking to a cow!
This angry shout made everyone present change color, especially the maids and servants who came with Beidi, who all looked at her as if they had seen a ghost.
Is this woman really going to die? That's Prince Lanzhi! Even the emperor has to show respect to him, and she dares to insult him!
"Who is causing a disturbance at the Spring Breeze Banquet?"
A slightly majestic voice sounded, and everyone turned to look, "Greetings to Princess Zi Yan!"
All the women bowed and saluted, but Zhang Zhirou and Shu He remained motionless.
"How dare you! Why don't you bow to the princess when you see her?" The palace maid behind Shen Ziyan shouted angrily.
Zhang Zhirou was standing aside and was about to speak when Shu He quickly pulled her behind him. This girl was angry, so it would be better for her to say less.
"The princess is from Beidi, and we are from Tianqi. Why should we bow to her?"
Shen Ziyan frowned. This sentence sounded a bit unreasonable, but after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.
Zhang Xuehan followed behind Shen Ziyan. Upon hearing this, she stepped forward and said, "Princess Ziyan will soon become the Ninth Prince's consort! You are from Tianqi, so it is only natural for you to be the Ninth Prince's consort. Why not?!"
These words made Shen Ziyan's expression ease a little, and there was a hint of satisfaction in her eyes when she looked at Zhang Xuehan.
You are right, she is the future prince's consort, so what's wrong with her being worshipped by the Northern Di people?
"Soon, that means not yet. When the princess really becomes the Ninth Prince's consort, it won't be too late for us to pay our respects then, right?"
Shu He's voice sounded soft, but in everyone's ears, it was sharp and piercing.
Didn't her words make the other noble ladies look like spineless people without any courage? Because they had just bowed down.
"you!"
Zhang Xuehan was about to speak, but Shu He raised his hand to stop her.
"Besides, King Liu of Beidi and I are old acquaintances. He told me the last time we met that Beidi is inferior to him, so I don't need to bow down to him!"
"Fifth Princess, according to your rank, you are the sister of Prince Liu. I don't even need to pay homage to him, so you, too, don't you?"
When these words were spoken, not only everyone was confused, even Shen Ziyan was shocked.
Does she know mynah?
Although Shen Zi Yan was called the Fifth Princess in Beidi, she was actually born after Shen Chuan and was the fifth princess of the Beidi Emperor, which is why she was called the Fifth Princess.
"One is a boaster, but I didn't expect the other to be so clueless! You don't think you can just casually establish a relationship with him just because His Highness Prince Liu isn't around, do you?"
Lucy Liu couldn't help but make another sarcastic remark.
Zhang Zhirou's expression became stern, and the dagger at his waist was about to be unsheathed.
Seeing this, Liu Yuling was so frightened that she hid behind Zhang Xuehan. "The person in front of you is the future consort of the Ninth Prince, Princess Nanyu. Do you dare to use a knife in front of the princess?!"
Before Zhang Zhirou could say anything, Shu He spoke coldly, "Miss Liu, as a girl, it's better for you to keep your mouth shut! If you don't understand the principle of 'disaster comes from the mouth,' go home and ask your father. He's well versed in this and will definitely be able to explain it to you."
Zhang Xuehan stepped forward coldly, "Miss Liu, threatening in public is not a good choice!"
Shu He glanced at her and chuckled, "It can't be helped. Some people are just too stupid to understand what people are saying. Clowns are funny, but if they keep jumping around, they'll be annoying."
"Liu Ruxin!!"
Lucy Liu was almost mad. This was the first time in all these years that she had been treated so humiliatingly!
If this gets out, how will she survive in the circle?
Shen Ziyan frowned, feeling that the banquet had become chaotic.
"Miss Liu, you said you knew my starling. Do you have any proof?"
Shu He gave her a bright smile, "Shen Lanzhi, he is the proof."
