Zhao Ruxi smiled and held her cold hand: "You are so kind, beautiful and talented, and your temperament is so good. There will always be people who know how to cherish. We are not in a hurry, and we will choose slowly."

Xiao Ruotong shook his head: "I don't have this idea for the time being, and maybe I will never have it in my life. Let me tell you, the past few years after I got married and stayed in the British government, it made me depressed. My master treats me very badly.

I have an opinion. Because I am in a bad mood and can't concentrate, my calligraphy has not improved. I want to be like Mrs. Cui and live alone and don't want to get married."

Zhao Ruxi smiled and said nothing.

Maybe.

But if Xiao Ruotong meets someone who likes her again and she likes her, this idea will change. So it is better not to set flags casually.

"Miss, the banquet is about to begin. The old princess and the princess have asked you to come." A maid came in and reported.

Xiao Ruotong shook his head: "I'd better not go. As soon as I go out, others will talk about me and criticize our palace."

Zhao Ruxi pulled her: "Go, how can you not go? Do you plan to hide like a mouse from now on and never show up? The one who did the wrong thing is the British government, not you. You are my granddaughter,

You didn't even show up at the old princess's birthday party, so you didn't make others gossip, and you showed that you were guilty and sneaky, which made the old princess and the princess embarrassed. Besides, this is a good time to explain everything clearly in front of everyone. It's over.

This hurdle is over, and your life is back to where it started."

Xiao Ruotong was thoughtful.

She stood up and smiled at Zhao Ruxi: "You're right, not going will make me look shady."

She turned around and told Aunt Yun: "Bring me my red dress. I want to put it on and go to the front to pay my grandma's birthday."

Grandma Yun breathed a sigh of relief, smiled gratefully at Zhao Ruxi, and quickly went to work.

After a while, Xiao Ruotong was dressed up. Zhao Ruxi also dedicated her superb makeup skills to give Xiao Ruotong a beautiful make-up, making her look beautiful and energetic. The two went to the front hand in hand to pay their birthday to the old princess.

"Ah, isn't this the head of Qingyang County? Isn't she..." As soon as someone saw Xiao Ruotong, they started talking, but they kept their comments to a minimum.

Xiao Ruotong is extremely aloof at heart and can be said to be clean-minded. Ever since she was a child, few of the noble ladies present who she knew or didn't know could catch her eye. When she heard other people's comments, she blinked.

Don't even blink, just ignore it.

However, Zhao Ruxi had a character that was determined to take revenge. She whispered a few words in Xiao Ruotong's ear, and Xiao Ruotong laughed, nodded her forehead and said: "Narrow ghost."

She led Zhao Ruxi straight to the woman who just pointed at her and screamed, and said to Zhao Ruxi: "Xiao Xi, you don't know many people, right? Let me introduce to you, the person who was talking about me just now is

Mrs. Xue, the second young lady of Mr. Li’s family, Minister of Household Affairs.”

Zhao Ruxi smiled and nodded at the blushing Mrs. Li, "Nice to meet you."

"Let's go to the front." After Xiao Ruotong said this, he ignored the others and pulled Zhao Ruxi away, leaving a group of people standing there stunned.

Along the way, if anyone pointed at her, Xiao Ruotong would be picked up by Zhao Ruxi and led her to identify them. It didn't matter if she didn't recognize the person. Aren't there still Granny Yun and Xiao Ru?

Although both of them were smiling and polite, looking from a distance, it was Xiao Ruotong who changed his previous indifferent personality, became polite, and enthusiastically introduced Zhao Ruxi to people.

But she ignored other people and only introduced those who pointed or talked about her to Zhao Ruxi. This behavior was very interesting.

Princess Zhennan loved her daughter as much as her eyes. The old princess also loved her granddaughter very much and always sent people to pay attention to her.

By the time they reached the old princess, the two princesses already knew what they had done along the way, and both the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were laughing so hard.

Princess Zhennan held back her laughter and whispered to her mother-in-law: "It must have been the idea given by that child Xiao Xi. Ruotong has such a temper that he only ignores others but makes himself angry."

The old princess nodded: "That child is smart. With such a child as a friend, Ruotong will not get sick from boredom."

As she spoke, her eyes were slightly cold.

Those people came to her family's banquet and gossiped behind her back. They really didn't take them seriously.

"Those people Ruotong pointed out today will have a banquet to post in the second half of this year. Don't post to them." She ordered, "Whether to post next year will depend on the situation."

"Yes, I think so too." Princess Zhennan said.

The current emperor does not have many brothers in total. Although Xiao Yuan, the king of Zhennan, is only Xiao Ge's cousin, his status is particularly different because he supported him when he ascended the throne and went on many expeditions on his behalf.

Therefore, their Zhennan Palace banquet is of a very high level in the capital. It is an honor to receive their invitation. With such a punishment, let's see who dares to bite Xiao Ruotong's tongue behind their backs.

"Let's go, the banquet is ready over there, let's go over there."

Princess Zhennan stood up and helped her mother-in-law move to the hall where a dozen banquet tables were set up.

As soon as they sat down, Xiao Ruotong and Zhao Ruxi came in. Xiao Ruotong walked up to the old princess, bowed to her, and gave her his birthday wishes and gifts.

The old princess reached out to her, pulled her to the front of everyone, smiled and said to everyone: "I think everyone knows about the British government affairs some time ago. My granddaughter cannot have children. If my biological mother discussed it with us, we wouldn't

If you are unreasonable, you can adopt a child, take a concubine for the British prince, or divorce. There are ways to solve the problem. But his family just bullied our family to talk, and did things like beheading them first and then forcing them.

Come."

She pointed at Xiao Ruotong: "Everyone knows that my granddaughter is a disciple of Master Qin Zhe. She is noble and arrogant, and can't tolerate sand in her eyes. She has now reconciled with the British prince. From now on, our family will no longer be the same as the British prince.

In-laws, I would like to take this opportunity to tell everyone that I hope you will not confuse our two families again."

Today, no one from the British Duke's family came to the old princess's birthday party. Everyone had various speculations about Xiao Ruotong's marriage. There were already a lot of discussions, so when they saw Xiao Ruotong, some people would not control their voices and let Xiao Ruotong and Zhao Ruxi

hear.

Now that the old princess has made the matter clear and clear, everyone is no longer interested in gossiping. Coupled with Xiao Ruotong's flirtatious behavior just now, everyone has changed their minds and said that the British government is not here.
