Immediately, the ladies started laughing, but the normally talkative Grandma Zhangda's face turned red. "Don't tease me like that, this old face of mine doesn't care, but Sister Qing is still young …"

Lin Shu walked in amidst the laughter, and the moment she walked in, many people's gazes landed on her. Originally, she did not reveal herself often, and even if she had gone out to be a guest, Lin Qian and Lin Lian had stolen her limelight, and now, everyone could see, the young lady from the fifth house of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion was extremely spirited, and looked like a lady from a noble family!

First Princess Pingning's mouth formed a faint smile, as if he was proud of something.

This was her future daughter-in-law!

Lin Shu gracefully walked forward to pay respects to the elders, and they couldn't help but praise him again.

Although Grand Madam was angry at her for coming too late, but it was hard to reveal it in front of everyone. He could only put on a caring and loving grandmother look, "It's getting late outside, hurry and sit down and rest."

Just as Lin Shu was about to leave, First Princess Pingning waved at her. "This child is Sister Shu right? When I was at the Forin, I kept listening to my eldest wife bring it up. Come, tell me to take a good look. " Aren't you being a little too hasty!

Lin Shu stepped forward with a smile on her face and blessed her body before calling out "First Princess Pingning" with a smile.

First Princess Pingning nodded in satisfaction, and said: "He's a painful child."

She was the direct daughter of the Assistant Minister Lin, the granddaughter of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion … She was becoming more and more satisfied with the marriage.

No one took Lin Shu seriously, and changed the topic, especially the Mrs. Guo, he started to make fun of the Grandma Zhangda again, causing both the Grandma Zhangda and Zhang Yuanqing to feel embarrassed.

First Princess Pingning was also in a good mood. He picked up the tea Gu and took a sip, before slowly saying: "... Don't tease the Grandma Zhangda, be careful that when the Third Prince sees you in the future, he will not be nice to you all! "

These words were very clear.

Grandma Zhangda only looked at First Princess Pingning in shock. After a long while, he still had not recovered his senses, his mouth moved, but in the end, he did not say anything. It was not that he did not want to say it, it was even more so because he did not dare say it.

Who dared to say no to the Emperor, Empress Zhang and Empress Dowager Wang's intentions?

Even the Mrs. Guo was surprised. Zhang Yuanqing was going to give it to the third prince? This, the Third Prince does have a Chief Consort … Could it be that Zhang Yuanqing will become the Lateral Consort?

Her mind raced as she thought about how the Third Prince had already started helping the Third Prince manage the household's affairs with the help of Miss Man Jing who was assigned to him by the Empress Dowager Wang. Everyone knew that this Miss Man Jing would probably be conferred the title of the Lateral Consort's Empress by the end of the day … Then not only was Zhang Yuanqing's marriage not a good marriage, it could not even be considered normal.

For a moment, the usually clever Mrs. Guo felt that his brain was not enough to handle the situation.

Not to mention that Zhang Yuanqing's hands, which were hidden inside his sleeves, were tightly clenched into a ball, and his fingernails were already embedded into the center of his palms, yet, on the surface, he didn't even dare to reveal the slightest of displeasure.

It was just that she felt that she didn't show it on her face, but all the other madams and mistresses present seemed to have seen it clearly.

It was as if First Princess Pingning didn't see the astonishment on everyone's faces. He said slowly, "Even I only just returned to the capital and knew that Miss Zhang Family was a famous and talented woman in the capital. The empress dowager and empress must have thought that the Third Princess was born to be mediocre, and the third prince didn't have anyone by his side to talk to.

It was obviously Empress Zhang's idea, but she pulled him in as well. He really didn't forget to pester Empress Dowager Wang at all times, "But let me say, although it's the third prince's Lateral Consort, it's still a bit unfair for Miss Zhang Family … Based on Miss Zhang Family 'intelligence and appearance, it is enough for his to marry the Third Prince and become a Chief Consort. "

The wives sitting around were all born into noble families, and then they married into noble families. Since young, they would often enter and exit the imperial palace, so they more or less knew some of the secrets of the palace. Marrying a member of the imperial family would be much harder than marrying an ordinary person, let alone becoming a Lateral Consort.

The Lateral Consort Empress … Even if they were addressed respectfully as the 'Empress' when they went out, they would not be able to walk through the main gate or wear red. In other words, they would just be a concubine with face belonging to the imperial family.

No one dared to reply, and only looked at Grandma Zhangda with a bit of sympathy.

On the other hand, Mrs. Guo laughed dryly and stuttered: "Third Prince … "The Third Prince is an excellent person, and is often praised by the Emperor at a young age. Even our Old Master said that the Third Prince is a person of great talent, and his future is limitless. I'm afraid that our Sister Qing will have some good fortune in the future."

Grandma Zhangda could only force a smile and say: "Then I'll have to count on your blessings."

Although it was most likely that the Third Prince would ascend the throne now, the Third Prince would inherit the throne one day, and his own daughter would at most be a concubine … The empress dowager and empress dowager sat on top of the beautiful ladies who had just entered the palace. It would be difficult to endure, not to mention that Man Jing, who was standing beside the third prince, was not so simple either …

If it wasn't in front of everyone, she would have hugged her daughter and cried loudly.

Slowly, Zhang Yuanqing and his daughter lost the mood to talk.

However, the party's liveliness did not turn cold because of them. The ladies chatted for a long time, talking about a few common topics, but everyone was enjoying themselves …

There was even a lady who asked Princess Changze why he did not bring him out today, saying that he had not seen him for a long time.

Princess Changze forced a smile, "The sun is too big now, Chun Geer is still young, and he was afraid of getting hurt from the sun, so I didn't carry him out."

If she had the chance to, Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion would definitely bring Chun Geer here. But now, even if she brought Chun Geer here, Auntie Zhong wouldn't be able to see this fortune anymore … Furthermore, all she was thinking about right now was his own son, how could she have the mind to care about Chun Geer's life and death?

She felt even more agitated, so she took Maid Du out.

The hall was really cramped. She just wanted to go out and get some fresh air. If she stayed any longer, she would definitely go crazy.

Lin Shu watched her leave and followed her out. Sure enough, she saw Princess Changze under a fragrant camphor tree in the backyard.

Although this was the backyard, it was only a wall away from Lin Pei's study. In the past few days, Lin Pei had reported to the imperial government that there was something important here, but she could guess that Lin Pei was actually bringing people to find Lin Geer. Not knowing what the Maid Du was saying, he just passed a handkerchief over to him, gently comforting him.

Princess Changze had his back facing Lin Shu. In Lin Shu's impression, Princess Changze had always been somewhat plump, but ever since she had returned from the manor, he felt that the difference in strength between Princess Changze and before had decreased by a lot. Right now, her thin shoulders were shaking, making her look quite pitiful.

Lin Shu only felt that it was very sarcastic, the normally haughty and haughty Princess Changze actually had such a side to him, "What is the Princess Changze doing here?"

Unfortunately, Princess Changze was only weak for that single moment. When she turned around to look at Lin Shu, his brows carried a haughty look, but his eyes were still red. "Fourth Miss is listening to the play in the parlour, why are you out there? Were they not here just to look for me? "

It had been a long time since the two of them had fought, and thinking of the consequences of Lin Shu in just a few days, she did not even place him in her eyes.

Lin Shu nodded, and said sternly: "Princess Changze is smart. I have something I want to say to you alone. "

Maid Du stood at the side as if he did not hear anything.

On the other hand, Princess Changze instructed, "Maid Du, go wait at the side!" She didn't believe that a mere little girl could create such a storm.

Waiting for Maid Du to leave, she gave a cold laugh, "Fourth Miss, what do you have to say? Was it because of what I said a while ago? "And now Baba has followed him out to beg for mercy?"

"I never thought that after so many years, the Princess Changze would still have so much confidence in himself!" Lin Shu was not short, and currently, she was slightly shorter than Princess Changze by half a head, but she did not lose in terms of momentum, "I can tell that Princess Changze's expression isn't too good. Presumably, it's been a few days since she couldn't eat or sleep because of Lin Geer.

What she wanted was to use the Lin Geer to threaten Princess Changze. Only by cutting off First Princess Pingning's retreat, would she be able to do her best.

Princess Changze's face changed, but in the next moment, she seemed to have realized something, and revealed a look of disdain, "Fourth Miss, what are you saying, how can I not understand?"

Her long nails that had been smeared with nutmeg caressed her face as she smiled and said, "My complexion has indeed not been very well these few days. It must be because of the Wang Family incident!"

This man, once he became flustered, he became flustered. If it was in the past, where would she have said this much nonsense to Lin Shu?

Lin Shu only said: "At first, I thought that Princess Changze would really want to hear about Lin Geer, but I never expected that I would overthink it. Since Princess Changze is not interested at all, then just treat it as me putting on an act."

With that, she turned and left.

On the other hand, Princess Changze watched her figure that leisurely left, and immediately panicked. Since Lin Shu could say such words, wouldn't she already know the inside story? How did Lin Shu know …

For a moment, Princess Changze felt as if he had returned to that day at the Tzu Ning Palace, where Lin Shu had forced her to choose between the two of them!

Lin Shu was not anxious at all, she knew that the Princess Changze cared about this child, and Lin Pei cared about this child. Even if Princess Changze agreed, within three days, the Princess Changze would definitely come looking for her.

But who knew that after walking a few steps, she would hear the shrill voice of the Princess Changze behind her, "Lin Shu, hold it right there!"
