Chapter 801

All the courtiers in the hall looked at Princess Pearl in disapproval.

As a royal princess, she didn't care about what to do, and she lowered her style.

After listening to Lu Jiao's words, Xie Yunjin let out a long groan, and then asked Lu Jiao, "Ma'am, what happened earlier? Made the princess think that you were bullying the old lady of Zhao Guogong's mansion."

Lu Jiao knew that Xie Yunjin was asking her to tell what happened earlier on the spot.

The face of the old lady of Zhao Guogong's mansion changed slightly, she was not naive like Princess Mingzhu, she knew that if she said this, she would be ashamed.

The old lady of Zhao Guogong's mansion immediately smiled and said: "It's nothing, just a few jokes, Mingzhu is a child who doesn't understand, so she loves me."

Lu Jiao nodded in agreement: "Yes, just a few jokes."

Seeing that Lu Jiao responded to her words, the old lady of Duke Zhao's mansion breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a little complacent in her heart. It seems that this Mrs. Xie is sensible and knows that it is not good to offend the Zhao family.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she thought about it, Lu Jiao spoke again: "The old lady of Zhao Guogong's mansion and the old lady of Zhongyong Hou's mansion asked me if I abused the second prince?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the main hall became indescribably condensed.

Although there were rumors in Beijing earlier, they were just rumors. The dignified old lady of Zhao Guogong's mansion and the old lady of Zhongyonghou's mansion went to ask the rightful owner. Isn't this clearly a problem? One or two people of this age actually ran to embarrass the younger ones.

In the main hall, many courtiers looked at the old lady of Zhao Guogong's mansion, and the old lady of Zhongyonghou's mansion.

The two elders didn't expect Lu Jiao to say such a thing.

The two elders just felt ashamed. They didn't think much about it at first, they just couldn't understand Lu Jiao, and wanted to trouble her and make her lose face, but they didn't lose face, they were the ones who lost face.

Pei Shoufu directly disagreed and said: "As the wife of an important minister in the court, you still have to pay attention to your image. If these words are spread to the public, what will the people say about us, set an example, set an example."

In Zhao Guogong's mansion, Zhao Guogong's eldest son was stationed at the border far away, and the rest of them looked a little unhappy after hearing Pei Shoufu's words.

The Zhao family is currently in charge of Zhao Guogong's younger brother, Zhao Li, who is serving as the Minister of the Ministry of War.

"My sister-in-law likes to joke the most. She is joking with Mrs. Xie, but such jokes should be avoided in the future."

Can't we talk less about the second prince?

Zhao Li thought unhappily.

In the main hall, the queen looked at her mother with a slightly uneasy expression. Today is her grandson's big wedding, so there must be some troubles, and the queen is still holding back without seeing her.

The old lady of the Zhongyonghou Mansion shrank her head, and dared not say a word, she didn't know that this Mrs. Xie was a tough guy, and she wasn't afraid of them at all.

No wonder my daughter couldn't do anything with her, it was really hard to deal with.

The first queen said: "Okay, just a little joke, Mrs. Xie, don't take the jokes of the two old ladies seriously, they are old and careless."

Lu Jiao turned her head to look at the queen, and said flatly, "I didn't take it seriously, but the princess did."

The queen turned to look at Princess Mingzhu and reprimanded her: "Mingzhu, as a royal princess, in the future, if you don't listen to the wind, it will rain. You are a noble daughter of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you must have your own demeanor."

The queen knew that Princess Mingzhu was the worst person to listen to preaching, and if she said this, I'm afraid she would hate Lu Jiao even more.

Princess Mingzhu's face was ugly to the naked eye, but when the queen spoke, she couldn't refute, so she snorted, but she remembered Lu Jiao fiercely in her heart.

Seeing Princess Pearl's expression, the queen was extremely satisfied.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's start the banquet."

The queen can't leave the palace for too long, after she arranged a banquet at Prince Jin's mansion, she was ready to leave.

Everyone respectfully sent the queen off, and sent the queen away all the way.

I didn't want the group of people to just leave the main hall when they heard someone in Prince Jin's mansion yelling in panic: "It's not good, it's flooded, it's flooded."

The queen and the people behind her turned their heads in disbelief and looked towards the northwest corner of Prince Jin's mansion, there was really thick smoke rising.

The queen's face was indescribably ugly, and she shouted sharply: "What's going on?"

The steward of Prince Jin's Mansion quickly ran over to report: "Empress Empress, I don't know why there is a fire in the stable?"

After hearing this, the queen felt a little confused. She always felt that this matter was not simple. She ordered the steward in front of her in a deep voice: "Don't take anyone to put out the fire. Today is the day of the prince's wedding. If anything happens, don't blame me for cleaning it up." you."

The steward's face turned pale, and he responded quickly.

Someone behind the queen suddenly said: "Let's go over and have a look. If it's urgent, let's put out the fire together."

Prince Jin's Mansion is a mansion just given by His Majesty, and there are not too many servants in the mansion, so this man's proposal is reasonable.

So this person opened his mouth, and the others agreed, and they all turned around and walked northwest of Prince Jin's Mansion.

The queen opened her mouth to say that you are not needed, but the mighty people walked to the stables in the northwest direction.

At this time, the queen has no way to say that you are not needed, so she can only follow.

In the northwest corner of Prince Jin's Mansion are the Chaifang stables and other places. Because of the running water, the horses in the stables screamed in panic.

At this time, the servants of Prince Jin's Mansion put out the fire and rescued the horse, and the scene became chaotic.

The courtier who rushed over immediately ordered the servants behind him to go up and help.

The fire was quickly extinguished, but the remaining temperature was still there, thick smoke rose slowly, and everyone dared not leave for fear of igniting the fire again.

Fortunately, the fire was extinguished in time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and someone muttered: "Fortunately, nothing happened."

"It's fine, but if it's fine, how can it go into the water?"

"Today is King Jin's wedding day, and the mansion is flooded suddenly. It doesn't seem very good."

Everyone was muttering, the people in front saw the flames of the fire, and saw that the residual temperature in the back seemed to be no longer on fire, and they were about to leave, when they suddenly heard a small voice coming from a row of stables.

The faces of the people in front suddenly changed, and one of them shouted nervously: "No one will enter the stable to feed. They didn't have time to escape. They were burned. Hurry up and rescue them."

As soon as the man finished speaking, several people rushed into the innermost room of the stable. When they rescued the horses, they only looked around and saw that there were no horses in it before retreating. Who knew there would be a person inside.

The stable is where the fire started in Prince Jin's Mansion. Although the fire was extinguished, the smoke was still heavy, so the servants who rushed in couldn't see the situation in the stable at all, but the few people who entered vaguely felt that there were two people inside.

A few people hurriedly carried the two people out. When the people outside saw that the people inside had been rescued, they couldn't help but surrounded them and shouted: "Check to see if there are any injuries."

But don't let anyone die, today is the day of King Jin's wedding, if someone dies, it will be unlucky.

It was just that when several people gathered around and saw the two people who were carried out, they were speechless for a moment, and all of them were dead silent, and then someone subconsciously backed away.
