In addition to Princess Zhennan and Princess Shang Dechang, there were also several married women sitting in the room. Seeing this scene, they all looked at Zhao Ruxi seriously again.

Although Suiping's residence has fallen into decline and is not in their eyes, the little girl Zhao Ruxi is capable.

Not only was she accepted as a disciple by Mr. Kumu, but she was also given a very good job by the emperor. She was famous and profitable. Not to mention the one thousand five hundred taels of silver each, but the people who studied painting with her in the future were not. He would call her master, but the relationship between master and disciple was real, and no matter what, there was always a passionate love. This was comparable to Master Peng who was offering wine at the Imperial Academy.

It is not yet known whether the students taught by Master Peng can become officials. Zhao Ruxi taught all officials. In this comparison, she is even better than Master Peng.

Not to mention that today Zhao Ruxi received the old princess's blessing and a string of Buddhist beads from her.

The old princess is the most blessed person in the world - the queen mother and empress in the palace have higher status than her, but they couldn't bear the fate and died at a young age. The old princess now lives to be seventy years old and is still in good health.

Despite her always smiling face, she seems to be quite kind to everyone, but apart from Princess Shangde, there seems to be no outsider who can catch her eye, get her to praise her or even give her beads.

It can be seen that this girl Zhao is blessed.

So these ladies instantly switched modes and began to consider in their minds the children and grandchildren who would be a suitable match for Zhao Ruxi.

Seeing Zhao Ruxi exchanging a few words with the old princess and preparing to leave, a lady sitting downstairs stood up and echoed the old princess with a smile: "The old princess has sharp eyes and can tell who is lucky at a glance. Zhao With the blessing of the old princess, the girl will definitely be in good health in the future."

After coming to celebrate her birthday, she stayed here and never left. It was said that there were many people talking to the old princess. Princess Zhennan would not introduce them to everyone who came to celebrate her birthday, so as not to waste time and avoid anyone looking at her. It was a place where I could meet people and make connections, so I kept going more and more, increasing the congestion here and annoying the old princess.

Now seeing the lady running out to make her presence felt, she simply pretended not to notice and turned around to talk to Princess Shang De.

Zhao Ruxi had no intention of making friends with these ladies, and coming to the old princess was just a formality, so she nodded to the lady and said, "Thank you for your kind words, old princess," and then prepared to leave.

The lady was anxious and quickly introduced herself: "Miss Zhao, haven't you seen me before? I am Mrs. Pingnanhou. I have heard of her for a long time. When I met her today, I realized that she is so outstanding."

As she said that, she stood there smiling, waiting for Zhao Ruxi to flatter her.

Because Marquis Pingnan was favored, there was usually a group of low-status wives of military commanders who praised her for their bad feet all day long. The Suiping family was a military commander, and his wife Pingnan Marquis also fell into this category.

Furthermore, why is the son clamoring to marry this girl Zhao Wu? This girl must have seduced her son. Since she wants to marry into his family, then come and curry favor with him!

Just now I saw that she was praised by the old princess and the Zhennan princess. If the flattery is good, it is not impossible to consider letting her marry the eldest son. This girl is capable and can make money. Her status is still low, so I dare not show off in front of her. It seems to be quite suitable for her eldest son.

When Zhao Ruxi heard the words "Mrs. Pingnan Hou", she really stopped and looked at her intently. But after only one glance, she turned around and followed the maid named Xiao Ru out.

Out, gone, gone...he didn't say a word to me the whole time!

Mrs. Pingnan Hou stood there, looking at Zhao Ruxi's leaving figure, her face turned red and white, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

There was silence in the hall.

Few of the ladies present liked Mrs. Pingnanhou. She was from a low background, her words and deeds were vulgar and superficial, and she was as showy and self-righteous as the nouveau riche. But for the sake of Pingnanhou and Fu Yunkai's great military exploits

, everyone kept a polite distance from her and would not embarrass her.

Now seeing Zhao Ruxi directly insulting her, everyone felt secretly happy.

Princess Zhennan usually disliked Mrs. Pingnanhou very much, but when she was a prince, King Zhennan also led troops to fight, and now she is still serving in the Ministry of War. Pingnanhou is another upstart supported by the current emperor. The old princess

It would be a bad idea not to invite Madam Pingnanhou to the birthday banquet, so I posted this.

But just now she stayed here and refused to leave, and now she jumped out to increase her presence, Princess Zhennan couldn't bear it.

She said aloud: "Mrs. Pingnanhou, are you bored here? Why not go to the back and talk to those ladies, it will be more lively." After saying that, she didn't wait for Mrs. Pingnanhou to say anything, and

He turned around and told the maid, "Take Madam Pingnanhou to the garden behind."

The maid stepped forward and gestured to Mrs. Pingnanhou: "Madam, please."

Mrs. Ping Nanhou had lost face and didn't want to stay here anymore. Moreover, she wanted to see what kind of confidence that Miss Zhao had. She dared to lose face to herself and not give herself face.

She smiled at Princess Zhennan, said a few nice words to the old princess, and then followed the maid to the garden in the backyard.

But looking around, he didn't see Zhao Ruxi. Instead, he saw the old lady of the Suiping residence and his wife, Mrs. Zhu, sitting in the corridor, talking to the wife of the Duke of Wei and the Peng family.

She rolled her eyes, walked over, and smiled at Mrs. Zhu: "Mrs. Zhao, why isn't the daughter here? I just saw her at the old princess's place. I wanted to say a few words to her. Who has ever

I ignored her and turned around and left. I didn't see her here."

It turned out that because Zhao Ruyu was entangled with Fu Yunlang, Mrs. Pingnanhou had met Zhu at other banquets. She said that Zhao Ruyu was not worthy of her son and wanted Zhu to flatter her. Zhu would not do that.

In order to bow his head to Mrs. Pingnanhou for Zhao Ruyu, he usually didn't like to talk to her, and would always take a detour when he saw her.

Recently, because Fu Yunkai often invited her husband to dinner and treated him with great courtesy, she originally wanted to take this opportunity to express her gratitude to Mrs. Pingnanhou. But when she heard the meaning of Mrs. Pingnanhou's words, Mrs. Zhu's face suddenly changed.

The smile that floated fell.

There were only a dozen people sitting here from the three of them, and there were many people standing and sitting in the yard. Mrs. Pingnanhou’s voice was so loud that she could be heard all over the yard. Wouldn’t this ruin her daughter’s reputation?

?

There are many maids from Zhennanwang Town standing under the corridor, just to deal with various emergencies.

At this time, an eldest maid was worried that the two sides would quarrel and affect the atmosphere of the old princess's birthday banquet. She quickly answered with a smile: "My Qingyang County Lord has good relations with Miss Zhao Wu. He sent the eldest maid Xiao Ru next to her early in the morning.
