Chapter 523

Mrs. Cao glared at her younger brother angrily, endured and endured, but still did not lose her composure in public.She glanced at Shangguan Jing who was sitting shoulder to shoulder with Xiao Jingheng, suppressed her anger and said, "After the banquet is over, you go back with us, I have something to ask you."

Chen Qiyu was a little strange. He looked at his brother-in-law, then at the elder sister with an ugly face, and finally nodded.

The eldest sister has never been a violent person, Chen Qiyu thought, maybe there was some misunderstanding that made her unable to bear the anger on occasions like the East Palace banquet.

Chen Qiyu turned around to greet the other young people who were attending the banquet, and at the same time felt that his eldest sister was angry at the banquet in the East Palace, and felt a little sorry for the prince and princess.So as if looking for a reason for himself, he couldn't help but look up at Shangguan Jing's face.

Just when his eyes fell on Shangguan Jing, Shangguan Jing was sweeping the entire Chongzheng Hall with casual eyes, and in an instant, Chen Qiyu met Shangguan Jing's clear eyes, which made him blush immediately.

He felt that the princess's gaze seemed to look into his heart through his eyes, leaving a deep imprint on his mind.

Mrs. Cao, who was already angry, saw her brother's expression, and immediately became furious again.She felt that Shangguan Jing did it on purpose!Deliberately seduce his brother in front of her!

In fact, Mrs. Cao really wanted to get up and go to the harem immediately, to complain to her aunt, and let her know how restless the princess is.But she held back.

Mrs. Cao knew that her aunt had been coerced by the Crown Princess and the Empress Dowager in the harem recently, and her life was very difficult. She didn't want to disturb her aunt any more, so she decided to talk to her brother first.

When the banquet was over, because Mrs. Cao was pretending to be troubled, her face was always ugly, so Cao Pengju took her to bid farewell to the prince and princess. He was very afraid that his wife would lose her composure in front of the prince.Chen Qiyu also had to bid farewell to the prince early with the Cao family and his wife because his sister said he had something to do.

Although the Cao family is a hardcore Chen party, they have a lot of confidence in the court.But because of his younger sister, Dong Gong had some quarrels with Cao's family, and Cao Pengju didn't want to have another dispute.

Mrs. Cao held back her anger and bid farewell to the prince and princess. At least she was not rude, but she was really unwilling, and her face inevitably showed some color, which made Shangguanjing very interesting.

After the Caos turned and left, she couldn't help but poked Xiao Jingheng's arm and asked, "Did you see that just now? Mrs. Cao's eyes seemed to eat me up. Think about it for me, Where did I offend her?"

"What else can it be for? For Cao's daughter's marriage!" Before Xiao Jingheng could answer, Shangguan Yuan, who came to bid farewell with the Su family brothers, couldn't help but roll his eyes. Mrs. Cao kept secretly glaring at her sister during the dinner, She had discovered it a long time ago, and she had long endured the anger.If she didn't want to spoil the palace banquet carefully prepared by her sister and brother-in-law, she would have found fault with Mrs. Cao and made a few insinuations.

Cao's daughter was also one of the aristocratic daughters who had a hasty engagement at the palace banquet for the New Year's tribute envoys at the end of the year. However, she was very unlucky. The fiancé hastily settled on her head.

Aunt Cao's grandma is a poor person. She married well in the early years, but unfortunately her husband died early, and her father-in-law, as the hardcore Chen Party leader, has often been embarrassed by the Lin Party in the court for several years, and his official position has been repeatedly demoted.

The in-law's family blamed Cao Zongzhengqing and Chen Chengxiang for their refusal to help, so they felt very embarrassed for this aunt Cao, so she was in a very difficult situation in her in-law's family, and naturally her daughter's marriage could not be arranged very well.

In the end, it was the uncle of the Cao family who came forward and ordered the girl to a son who served as a censor.

The future son-in-law's family background is not high, but he has good talent, and he looks very upright and responsible, but Cao's grandma and Miss Biao are not dissatisfied, and they think that it is enough to live a stable life.Who would have thought that during a palace banquet, the son of the servant Yushi would become Miss Cao's fiancé, and would be chased by the emperor to make a marriage proposal.

All of a sudden, Miss Biao, who was inexplicably robbed of her fiancé, was just unhappy, and Cao's daughter was also very upset because she was about to marry the son of Shi Yushi.Compared with the noble girls who were engaged on the spot at the palace banquet, this husband's family can be regarded as the lowest rank.

Shi Yushi is a small official from the sixth grade, and the daughter of the Cao family who thinks very highly of herself thinks that marrying such a family is really wronged herself.She was angry, aggrieved, and sad, and also felt very sad because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally facilitated this matter.

Of course, Cao's daughter has never complained about the crown prince. She feels that everything is the responsibility of the crown princess Shangguan Jing. If she hadn't planned all this black-heartedly and viciously, she would not have fallen to where she is today.

Feeling resentful and humiliated, Cao's daughter stayed behind closed doors all day and cried at home every day. She blamed the crown princess, her parents for not being considerate, and the elder sister-in-law who came from the prime minister's mansion for not being able to protect her. He even blamed his cousin and aunt for not being up to date, how could he tell his cousin such a low-status fiancé, and finally got it on her head.

Although the matter of the Cao family has not been reported to the outside world, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. As time goes by, all the noble families in Beijing have heard the rumors, and of course the Su family has also heard of it.Not only did Shangguan Yuan from the back house hear about it, but even Su Chaoyun and Su Qingyun also knew about it.

Su Chaoyun who never gossips, after hearing what Shangguan Yuan said, he didn't feel that she was inappropriate, but followed his younger siblings and added: "Your Majesty, don't pay attention to Mrs. Cao Shao. She is probably taking her anger on Madam because of family affairs. Cao’s daughter has fallen into the current situation, obviously because of her delusional thinking, but even today she doesn’t know how to reflect on it, and instead blames innocent people, what’s the reason for that.”

"What Chaoyun said is very true." Lin Sixing who came to say goodbye together nodded, "It's just that Mrs. Cao is the empress's niece, and she has always been very fond of Empress Chen. Judging by her expression today, I am afraid she is unwilling to let it go. The empress is in the palace recently. You still need to be very careful.”

Shangguan Jing was quite surprised that Su Chaoyun and Lin Sixing, who were always cautious, would support her with such a clear stand.She put on a smile and just wanted to say a few polite words, thank you for your concern, Xiao Jingheng who was sitting next to her put his arms around her waist, and opened his mouth before her.

"Thank you both for your concern." Xiao Jingheng smiled brightly: "It is the duty of a husband to protect his wife at all times. What's the use of others not letting it go, I will protect my wife with all my heart. "

Su Chaoyun froze slightly, but he responded very quickly and smiled, and cupped his hands at Xiao Jingheng: "It is reassuring to have His Highness around."

 ---Here is the dividing line for Mrs. Cao's miserable life--
  She just didn't like Xiao Jingjing's face, and she didn't do anything immoral against Xiao Jingjing, but she was targeted by a group of unscrupulous dogs.

  What bad luck! !
