Ning'er looked and saw that in front of the flower garden that Lu Kui pointed out, more than ten palace maids in soft green short shirts and copper-blue pleated skirts were surrounding a woman in a dark apricot long gown with wide sleeves.
Ning Er mouthed to him, "Is it Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
Lu Kui said softly, "I'm not asking you to look at her. No matter how noble the princess is, she has nothing to do with you, young master. Look carefully, the last one in the second row to the left of the princess."
Ning'er looked again and recognized the figure that she hated to the core among the pile of silks and brocades.
She clutched Lu Kui's sleeves and said in a low voice, "It's her."
Luo Miaoyun!
She was so angry that her eyes turned red. Xinyuanhou Mansion actually brought her out!
Lu Kui sneered, "Don't be angry, let's just wait and see. If she hadn't come, the Shen family might have been able to keep a bit of dignity. Now that she's here, after today, the Shen and Luo families won't have any more face."
Ning'er was angry, and he was even more dissatisfied in his heart. Although he knew that today's event was deliberately arranged by His Majesty, he could see the intention of the old lady of the Shen family after a little probing.
Taking fish eyes as pearls, but ignoring the real jade, Lu Kui stared coldly at the person below, saying that Old Madam Shen Zhu was really a foolish person who discarded the pearl and picked up rubble, and was strong on the outside but weak on the inside!
At this time, she clearly knew that Luo Miaoyun was plotting to murder a concubine's son, abducting a woman, and attempting to poison her husband, but she was still concerned about the dignity of the Marquis's Mansion and the face of the Shen family.
For the sake of the pair of grandchildren whom she loved to the core, she would rather disobey her son and take such a big risk to release Luo Miaoyun in order to preserve the dignity of the mistress of the marquisate and her legitimate grandson in the royal family and the noble circles of the capital.
Haha, it’s a pity that she doesn’t know that the pair of boy and girl are not her own flesh and blood, and the more she cares about something, the more completely she is destined to lose it.
If she could have some genuine love for Ning'er, and feel some remorse for Luo's evil deeds, she would be willing to sacrifice herself for him and do her best to repay the blood and tears of the innocent victims.
Then, perhaps His Majesty will give her another chance because she is Ning'er's biological grandmother.
Thinking of this, Lu Kui hurriedly reminded Ning'er in a low voice: "No matter how much the old lady cries and loves you in the future, you must not take it to heart. Don't take it seriously. And remember, in her heart, she only cares about the honor and dignity of her husband's wife. For this, she can endure any deep hatred."
Ning'er looked at him intently, her eyes seemed to be saying, do you need to remind me of this?
She sneered, "How do you know that in Mrs. Zhu's heart, her son comes first, Shen Chengying comes second, Shen Ruyao comes third, and everyone else has to stand aside. What kind of wishful thinking do I have? Do I dare to expect her to love me?"
Lu Kui hurriedly said: "There are many people who love you, so why would you need her?"
At this moment, both of them were hit on the shoulders at the same time. Chu Yue laughed and said, "What's the matter with it hurting or not? Why are you two hiding here like girls and talking in private? Tell me."
Ning'er was startled. Lu Kui quickly brushed his hand away and said with a smile, "What, have you had enough fun?"
Chu Yue said, "It would be unpleasant if Brother Lu didn't come, but my uncle just sent someone to say that my aunt is coming, so let's go back to our seats according to the second place in the main banquet."
Ning'er looked at Lu Kui: "Where are we going to sit?"
Lu Kui raised his eyebrows: "Young master, just sit still and someone will come to invite you."
Chu Yue didn't expect that in front of him, Lu Kui didn't even bother to hide his feelings and openly called Master Ning "young master"!
He could not hide the surprise in his eyes. Everyone in the world knew who Lu Kui's master was. He called him "little master"...
Chu Yue suddenly thought too much. Could it be that he really had some relationship with that person?
Lu Kui and Ning'er didn't pay attention to Chu Yue's inner turmoil. She thought quietly for a moment, and suddenly asked Lu Kui: "Can you think of a way to let me sit as close to the female guests as possible?"
Lu Kui knew in his heart that when His Majesty came, Ning'er would most likely sit with him. Although she seldom showed up, there were still many female guests he knew.
"Aren't you worried?"
Ning'er shook her head. After just half a day, she seemed to have understood the true meaning of her identity.
She gave a calm and cunning smile. What if they saw it?
As long as she entered the garden openly, in the eyes of Lou Qi, in the eyes of Chu Yue, in the eyes of everyone, she would be Young Master Xiao Ning from the outer capital, then he would be.
Even if she was standing in front of the Shen family now, she was afraid that they would rather believe that a young master who looked like Miss Ning suddenly appeared, and would never identify her as the lady of the Marquis' Mansion in front of the princess and everyone else.
Because he was a distinguished guest personally invited by the Duke of England, the young master of Lu Kui's personal companion, and the young master of Qingyuan Garden.
Because of his identity, he was recognized by them.
This is power.
Because of power... one can call a horse a zebra and confuse right and wrong.
Why can Luo Miaoyun easily manipulate her mother's life and death? Because she is the daughter of a minister and a marquise.
And why, after the failure, Shen Chongyan could easily punish her? Because he was the Marquis of Xinyuan, her husband.
Their status, their power.
Ning'er suddenly understood Lingwei's painstaking efforts.
Why did he send her men's clothes, why did he want Lu Kui to accompany her all the way, why did he give her an independent villa, why did he accept the invitation of the Duke of England for her and socialize with so many strange men and women...
Ling Wei wanted to give her not only splendid clothes, gold, silk, pearls, jade, and beautiful buildings, he wanted to give her...
Status, power, and freedom.
Ning Er suddenly asked Lu Kui: "Do I look like Ling Wei now?"
Lu Kui was stunned by her question. After he reacted, he took a quick look. Miss Ning, not Mr. Ning, was of course very pretty, lovely and beautiful, but she was completely different type from Your Majesty.
He coughed twice and praised insincerely, "Looking closely, the eyebrows and eyes are quite similar."
Ning'er asked, "Really? Take a closer look."
Lu Kui gritted his teeth and said, "They are indeed somewhat similar. You and the master both have long eyelashes. It's just that his is too majestic, while yours is softer." He felt that his words were very clumsy and stiff, but Ning'er believed it a little.
She reached out and touched her eyelashes, thinking to herself, is Chu Huan lying to me? In my previous life, I was really his younger brother?
She laughed and shook her head. She even believed such words. If Lingwei knew, she would laugh at her again.
Ning Er stood up and bowed to the Duke of England: "The Duke is here."
Seeing that they were getting along very well, Lou Qi was pleased and said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting, Master Ning. The banquet is about to start, and the eldest princess is about to come over and wants to meet you. I'd like to trouble you to move aside and talk with her."
Ning'er nodded, temporarily parted ways with everyone, and followed Lord Lou with Lu Kui.
She suddenly realized that Chu Huan seemed to be much more powerful than his brothers. As they were both sons of royal palaces, Lou Qi was much more friendly and casual towards Chu Yue.
But when it comes to Chu Huan, Lu Kui, Han Guang and others, needless to say, seem to be a little afraid.
He seemed to really, especially, very, extremely care about himself.
