Chapter 363 Whoever is slapped in the face will feel pain
The emperor was still unconscious, and the two men came out of Changchun Palace and left the palace smoothly.
Lu Xinran has always been very courageous. While the emperor was still unconscious, she assigned the affairs of the court to several powerful officials. She directly instructed the coachman to go straight to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Zhang Shuier has been detained at home for some time and cannot go anywhere.
The news that Lu Xinlan wanted to divorce reached the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion almost immediately. Because of her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Qiu didn't want to talk about it any more.
So every time Zhang Shuier shouted that she wanted to go out, she was stopped by her.
Tang Wanrou had been so embarrassed these days that she didn't even want to go out of her room. When she thought of the things that had happened to her about Liu, she was so ashamed that she couldn't even raise her head even though she was already a married woman.
She resented Lu Xinlan in her heart, and she hated Lu Xinran even more for being so outspoken and not considering the reputation of the Liu family, who was also a woman.
Liu didn't dare to go out, so how could she dare to leave the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?
Whenever she thought of people talking about her behind her back, discussing whether she was like Liu and had learned how to serve men from the madam, she wanted to bang her head against the beam and die.
Mrs. Qiu has been feeling very complicated these days. Originally, she was very satisfied with Tang Wanrou as her daughter-in-law.
But with those rumors, she always felt that this daughter-in-law was not as pure and clear as she seemed.
A daughter raised by a mother like that...I'm afraid she would be the same kind of person.
Unfortunately, the son was very satisfied with his wife, and it happened that he went to the border at the beginning of the year and would not be back until next month.
I wonder if he will feel resentful when he hears these rumors after he comes back.
Thinking of this, Qiu began to feel somewhat dissatisfied with the Lu sisters.
If Lu Xinlan hadn't wanted to divorce, and if Lu Xinran hadn't expressed those thoughts outside Qingxin Palace, wouldn't their house have encountered these troubles!
"lady."
A servant came in hurriedly and whispered something in her ear.
Just as Qiu was beginning to feel dissatisfied with the Lu sisters, she heard from the servants that they were seeking a meeting outside the mansion.
She wanted to turn this person away, but things were different now and she couldn't afford to neglect Lu Xinran's current status as a princess.
So no matter how annoyed she was, she still told the servants to quickly welcome the person to the house, and then she got up, changed her clothes and prepared to go to the old lady's yard.
When Zhang Shui'er heard that they had come to the Duke's Mansion, she excitedly lifted her skirt and ran to the old lady's room.
She didn't bother to care about those rumors, nor would she be bothered by them.
She only knew that she was going crazy from being trapped in the house. She was going to become insane from facing the servants in the house every day.
As soon as I ran to the old lady's gate, I saw two figures walking side by side from afar.
She lifted her skirt and ran towards the two again: "You are so mean. You didn't miss me after such a long time."
She can't go out, so don't these two guys know to come and see her?
Lu Xinran rolled her eyes speechlessly at her, "I don't want to be turned away and be laughed at by others."
"Who dares to stop you at the door? Don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Shui'er walked up to her and hugged her arms, but Lu Xinran just smiled and said nothing, her eyes were on Qiu who was walking towards her.
Qiu pretended not to have heard their conversation, walked forward and exchanged a few words of greeting, and then the group was led into the side room.
They came at an inopportune time as the old lady had just finished her lunch break. Older people hate to be woken up from their sleep. Even though Lu Xinran was a princess, she could only wait here for her to wake up.
Qiu looked at the two smiling sisters and felt a little uncomfortable.
Tang Wanrou has been claiming to be sick for some time and dares not to see anyone in the mansion. As her mother-in-law, she feels both distressed and concerned.
I always feel that this good life has been disrupted by the two people in front of me.
[Why is Qiu looking at me like that? Don't you think it's shameful to have such a relative? ]
[However, Liu Shi is indeed not worthy of being on the stage, so it is reasonable for her to despise her. ]
Qiu's inner thoughts almost made him spit out the tea in his mouth.
Can't this guy see what she's thinking through the system?!
Is it Liu that she dislikes?
Forget it, she also despises Liu.
But that kind of thing is a private matter within the boudoir. How the couple behaves is their own business and has nothing to do with outsiders like them.
She exposed other people's boudoir secrets, making it so that Liu and Tang Wanrou cannot see anyone from now on. Is that right?
Lu Xinran flipped through her booklet and snorted inwardly at these thoughts.
[No one else can tell what she wants to do. I used to be too lazy to read these and would just quickly flip through them.]
[But she cannot be hypocritical and use extreme standards to demand others. ]
[Qiu was so dissatisfied and felt sorry for Liu because Tang Wanrou lived in their house. If Tang Wanrou was the daughter-in-law of someone else's house, she would probably enjoy watching this excitement more than anyone else.]
Qiu, whose thoughts were guessed, coughed lightly. This kind of thing is no different from a slap in the face, whoever gets it will feel the pain.
Zhang Shui'er no longer had the excitement she had just had. She looked at Qiu, who seemed a little uncomfortable, and then at Lu Xinlan, who had kept her head slightly lowered since she entered the room, and a sense of melancholy gradually arose in her heart.
"Madam, the old lady has woken up."
"Oh, I see."
The servant's voice rescued Mrs. Qiu from her awkwardness, and she immediately stood up and left the room first.
Zhang Shui'er hung her head and stood beside Lu Xinran, humming.
"My mother, hey, my mother has had a hard time recently."
A woman’s reputation is so important, what should I do in the future?
Lu Xinran smiled, raised his hand, patted her on the shoulder, and walked out of the room.
Yes, a woman's reputation is so important. It is not impossible to maintain it. Who would be willing to be criticized by Li Luoren?
When they felt annoyed and helpless for Tang Wanrou, who truly understood Lu Xinlan?
In the main room, Old Lady Zhang was sitting on a soft couch, with the servants helping her put on her headband. When she saw them coming in, she smiled kindly and said, "Sit down, don't be polite, let's sit down and talk."
The series of inner voices just now woke her up from her light sleep.
Unlike Mrs. Qiu, who was still worried about trivial matters such as the woman's reputation, she immediately thought of their purpose when she heard the servants say that they came from the palace.
The two sisters politely performed the junior's greetings before sitting down.
Lu Xinran looked at the increasing number of people gathering in the room, and immediately activated the Heart Voice Dharma.
[How can I talk to the old lady alone? How long do I have to wait with so many people here? ]
Qiu and others: "..."
It seems unnecessary for them to come here specially.
The old lady chatted with them for a long time with amusement, and then signaled Qiu and the others to leave first.
Zhang Shui'er looked back every few steps as she walked. What was being hidden from her?
"Tell me, little girl, when you came out of the palace, did you bring a message for my granddaughter?"
