291 Self-righteous Misunderstanding
"Mom, this prince has just arrived in Yuancheng. If what he wants in his heart at this time is not to completely control the northwest military power, then my daughter thinks that he is not worthy of her." Wu Ruoshui's tone was light, with a look on his face.
She is arrogant, and since the Lantern Festival, the threshold of the Wu family has been crossed by people seeking marriage. Of course, as the eldest daughter of the Wu family, she has absolutely reason to reject those she doesn't like.
Mrs. Wu glanced at her proud daughter: "So you are saying that he is focused on his career, that's why he didn't even mention it."
Wu Ruoshui picked up the tea cup and took a sip before saying: "Mother, you don't have to worry, your daughter has her own sense of proportion."
The two of them talked for a while, but the maid next to them walked in with four-color snacks and said: "Madam, Miss, this is a return gift."
Wu Ruoshui had someone send a pot of good tea before. According to their status, those few people should come to thank them in person, but they didn't want to just send four-color snacks as a return gift, which would be too disrespectful to the Wu family.
In the bar, Mrs. Wu's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, "Then have you asked the background of those three people?"
The maid shook her head in embarrassment. In fact, those maids were not talkative, and she didn't even have a chance to inquire.
Mrs. Wu's face darkened and she scolded: "It's useless!"
"Okay, mother, it's not her fault." Wu Ruoshui comforted her softly.
The maid couldn't help but show a grateful look. The eldest daughter of her family was different. She was beautiful and talented. The most important thing was that she also had a good temper. She never showed off in front of the servants.
When Mrs. Wu saw her daughter speaking, she stopped caring. She waved her hand and asked the maid to stand up. She turned her head and glanced at the people below: "It seems that there are more and more people coming to see the flood this year. Hey, isn't that the Crown Prince of Qin?"
?”
Wu Ruoshui followed Mrs. Wu's gaze. Even though there were crowds of people, the dark clothes were still the most eye-catching. His figure might not be as strong as that of a man from the northwest, but his figure was as tall and straight as a green pine.
When driving a horse, even in the middle of a crowd, he can still control it steadily and will never hurt a single person.
A slight smile appeared on Wu Ruoshui's lips, because she saw that the horse was heading towards Wangjiang Tower.
"Ruoshui, you see that the Prince of Qin is here at Wangjiang Tower. Could it be that he heard that you were here and came here specially?" Mrs. Wu smiled very happily. The main work scope of Governor Wu and Shangguan Jue on weekdays was
The difference is that the two people rarely have the chance to meet each other. After the Lantern Festival, even Governor Wu rarely met the prince who came to Beijing, and today's chance encounter inevitably made Mrs. Wu think too much.
Wu Ruoshui smiled and said nothing, no matter what, today is really a good day.
Mrs. Wu quickly ordered the mother-in-law beside her: "Go and see, which wing did Prince Qin last enter?"
The woman responded quickly and hurried out.
When Shangguan Jue walked into the wing with Xiao Fanzi, Qingluan and the others were leaning against the window, looking at the commotion below. When he saw the makeup of Murong Yuran beside him, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch. This evildoer should really be found.
They took him into custody to prevent him from poisoning his Aluan family.
"A Luan." Shangguan Jue changed his expression and stepped forward to stop Qing Luan's waist.
Qingluan couldn't help but feel a headache when she saw him taking it for granted. Shangguan Jue was too childish sometimes, but she couldn't do anything about him.
"The Crown Prince is here, do you need us to give this room to you?" Wei Xin'er teased with a smile.
Qingluan blushed slightly, but heard Shangguan Jue say: "It's best if you have this consciousness."
Qingluan was completely defeated by his shamelessness and directly ordered Xia Zhi: "Everyone is here, let the waiter serve the food first."
Murong Yuran shook his head and sat down with a helpless look on his face: "Girl, I'm sorry for you. You have to live with such a shameless person who regards sex as a hobby. On behalf of all the fellow disciples of Tianji Sect, I would like to express my gratitude.
.”
Shangguan couldn't help but grit his teeth and said provocatively: "If you have the ability, find someone. I think you are just jealous. Aluan, let's ignore him."
Qingluan and Wei Xin'er exchanged a look. The man was really childish.
This wing is busy with people coming and going, but the atmosphere in the Wu family's wing is not so pleasant.
"Have you really seen it clearly? The Prince of Qin entered the Orchid Hall in the middle?" Mrs. Wu's expression darkened slightly. Just now she was thinking about which family the people in the Orchid Hall were from, but who knew when she turned around and saw the Prince of Qin?
Entering there, there are three women inside. What on earth is the prince of Qin doing as a grown man? What is the relationship between them?
"The old slave is definitely not wrong. The Crown Prince of Qin has indeed entered the Lan Hall." The old nun said.
Wu Ruoshui's face lost her smile at this time. After a moment of silence, she raised her head and looked at Mrs. Wu: "Mother, didn't you say before that when the prince came to Yuancheng, there was a woman with him? Could that be the one wearing the same clothes?
A woman in aqua blue clothes.”
Among the three women, only the one wearing aqua blue clothes is dressed as a woman. Although Yuancheng's restrictions on women are not so strict, the dress of girls and women is still slightly different. Could it be that the woman belongs to the prince?
Concubine room.
The prince of the Qin Dynasty came to the northwest from Beijing. He was still young, and it was outrageous not to have a woman by his side. However, he actually condescended to accompany a concubine to watch the tide. This was too much, or that concubine.
There was a means to win over the Prince of Qin in one fell swoop.
Wu Ruoshui and Mrs. Wu looked at each other, and they obviously thought of somewhere.
Mrs. Wu said: "Go to Lanting Hall and hand over the greeting card to Ruoshui, and we two will go and meet this remarkable person for a while."
Wu Ruoshui had a high self-esteem and was not willing to join in the fun, but she was also very curious in her heart. If that woman was the concubine of Prince Qin, then it would be a stumbling block for her, and she wanted to get rid of this stumbling block.
, knowing yourself and your enemy is a good strategy.
"Mom, go and call the second sister and the third sister over." There are some things that the mother and I cannot say, so it is most appropriate for the two ignorant concubines to say it.
Mrs. Wu nodded and said, "Let Ruoxiang and Ruoxin come back."

Qingluan and the others were halfway through eating when they received a greeting card from Mrs. Wu.
"Mrs. Wu? Is she the wife of Wu Xiao, the governor of Wu?" Shangguan Jue frowned slightly. Today he finally had time to accompany Aluan to watch the wonders of Yuancheng. He really wanted to see Wei Xin'er and Murong Yuran.
After kicking out all the troublesome guys, who knew that a group of even more annoying ones would appear.
"Yes, we had a meeting at the door just now. After a while, someone sent someone over there to bring a pot of tea. I asked someone to bring four snacks back. Unexpectedly, she handed them over again this time.
Greetings." Qingluan was also very strange in his heart, but after just meeting each other, Mrs. Wu seemed to be eyeing them.
"If you don't want to meet, just refuse." Shangguan Jue said nonchalantly. This Governor Wu can be said to be a veteran in the officialdom. No matter it is him or the statement, he will not be offended, and of course he will not be upset because of this refusal.
Evil.
Qingluan shook his head. Shangguan Jue had just arrived in Yuancheng. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. The Wu family has been operating here for so many years. It would be best if they could have a harmonious relationship.
"Change the banquet table and invite Mrs. Wu and others to come over." Qingluan ordered.
After a while, the half-eaten banquet was pulled down and quickly replaced with a new one. After a while, Mrs. Wu came in with her three beauties.
"Your Majesty, Prince Qin, I'm sorry." Because she thought Qingluan was a concubine, Mrs. Wu went straight to Shangguan Jue.
Shangguan Jue said with a smile on his face: "Mrs. Wu, you are so polite. If I had known that Mrs. Wu was next door, I would have posted an invitation first."
Murong Yuhan couldn't help curling his lips when he heard his hypocritical words, and thought to himself, they are indeed quite fake.
After exchanging pleasantries, everyone sat down again.
Shangguan Jue habitually took the handkerchief and carefully wiped Qingluan's ebony chopsticks, and then handed it to her hand. His actions naturally attracted frequent glances from the Wu family. Shangguan Juequan pretended not to notice, he just
He likes to serve his wife, and no one can care about her.
Wei Xin'er and Murong Yuhan had long been accustomed to his behavior, and they started to eat without any surprise.
Shangguan Jue put some of Qingluan's favorite dishes on her plate. He looked up at Mrs. Wu's frown and asked, "Mrs. Wu, but this dish is not to your liking?"
Mrs. Wu was shocked, came back to her senses, forced a smile and said: "No, it's not." Shangguan Juedang, a prince, must have doted on this concubine too much. Mrs. Wu couldn't help but glance at Qingluan, but
See her looking calm
, obviously accepted it as a matter of course, and she became more and more unhappy in her heart. Originally, eating with a concubine was enough to lower her status, but now she has to watch the dignified prince serve a concubine. What does this sound like?
Even the two concubines of the Wu family were shocked. They heard from Madam Wu that this woman was the concubine of the Crown Prince of Qin, but this concubine lived as decently as the Madam, no, even more honorable than the Madam.
Decent, they have never seen their father serve Mrs. Wu like this.
Wu Ruoshui frowned almost invisible. Could it be that this was another deliberate gesture by the Crown Prince of Qin? When he went to Beijing to destroy his reputation, he did not hesitate to praise a brothel girl, so this time he would treat a concubine like this.
For what reason it is hard to tell.
Thinking of this, Wu Ruoshui's brows relaxed slightly. It didn't matter that the male protagonist was flirting with her before marriage, as long as he devoted himself to her after marriage. Anyway, she was still confident that she could control Shangguan Jue.
