[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life

"Why don't Madam Rong and Princess Anyang leave?" Concubine Liang looked at them with a puzzled look.

Zuo, who was walking in the middle of the crowd, had a changed expression, with a hint of worry on his face.

As expected, Princess Anyang said, "My Lady, Madam Rong and I are about to say goodbye and leave. We can't talk to you anymore."

Concubine Liang frowned slightly, "The banquet hasn't even started yet, why are you leaving?"

This time, before Princess Anyang could say anything, Zuo spoke first: "My Lady, this matter is my fault. I had some misunderstandings with Madam Rong just now, which made Madam Rong unhappy. Therefore, Madam Rong was going to take Princess Anyang away. I was trying my best to persuade them to stay with you ladies."

Hearing what Zuo said, Rong Enqing couldn't help but frowned.

"Some small misunderstandings", does that mean she is petty?

"Take Princess Anyang away", does it mean that she ignored the overall situation?

"Together with all the ladies, we tried our best to persuade her" means that she is ignorant and arrogant?

My goodness, just a few casual words, but she was accused of so many crimes.

As soon as Zuo finished speaking, Cui said quickly, "My Lady, this is not Madam Zuo's fault. It was all the fault of one of the maids. Madam Zuo's daughter-in-law has already brought people to apologize to Madam Rong. But Madam Rong still won't give up. Even Madam Zuo herself can't stop her."

At this time, Madam Meng also echoed: "Madam Rong is indeed a bit too much. She doesn't even give face to us old ladies."

Concubine Liang's face darkened slightly as she looked at Madam Yu and Madam Zheng who had not yet spoken.

Madam Yu glanced at Madam Zheng and said calmly, "The Third Young Mistress of the Yang Family did apologize to Madam Rong in person before."

This seemingly insignificant sentence actually confirmed Cui's words. It was also a disguised way of standing on Zuo's side.

The last one left was Madam Zheng. She sighed leisurely and said self-deprecatingly, "My Lady Imperial Concubine, I won't comment on this. After all, Madam Rong and I are future in-laws. No matter what I say, it will seem like I am deliberately favoring Madam Rong."

Concubine Liang smiled slightly. What else could she say?

What Mrs. Zheng meant by this, translated, is that no matter what she said, it would only be beneficial to Mrs. Rong.

Concubine Liang looked at Rong Enqing and asked calmly, "Madam Rong, do you have anything to say?"

Before Rong Enqing could say anything, Princess Anyang spoke first: "It was obviously Madam Zuo who did it on purpose..."

Before Princess Anyang could finish her words, Concubine Liang shouted in a deep voice, "How dare you! I didn't ask you a question!"

Princess Anyang was startled and wanted to speak again, but was stopped by Rong Enqing.

Rong Enqing bowed to Concubine Liang, and then he spoke dignifiedly about the embarrassment and humiliation he had suffered when he first arrived. "Madam Zuo deliberately made things difficult for me at first, and then tried to fool around. After I exposed her, she tried to use the power of the old ladies to coerce me.

"I just want to ask, Madam Zuo did something wrong, but she can't even say an apology? Instead, she wants me, the victim, to sympathize with her?

"Is it her Zuo family who is superior? Or am I, Rong Enqing, really inferior?"

Rong Enqing's tone was filled with anger and his expression was sorrowful, as if he had suffered a great injustice, which made everyone present silent.

Zuo's face changed drastically, and she said in fear and trepidation: "My Lady, it's not as she said..."

Before Zuo could finish her words, she shut her mouth under Concubine Liang's all-seeing gaze.

"This is just a small matter." Concubine Liang smiled and made a ruling on this farce. "Since Madam Zuo was at fault first, she should sincerely apologize to Madam Rong. Madam Rong, please let this matter go for my sake."

"Yes Yes."

Zuo and Rong Enqing both responded.

Zuo walked up to Rong Enqing, bowed her head, knelt, and bowed. She said humbly, "What happened before was all my fault. I apologize to Madam Rong. I hope Madam Rong will be magnanimous and forgive me."

Rong Enqing quickly reached out his hand to support her, and replied with a smile: "Mrs. Zuo, you are too polite. Please stand up quickly."

Seeing that the two had completed the process, Concubine Liang smiled and said, "Okay, it's over. Everyone, follow me upstairs."

As she spoke, she waved to Princess Anyang, "Anyang, come and help me upstairs."

Princess Anyang secretly curled her lips, somewhat reluctantly, but when she saw Rong Enqing winking at her, she reluctantly let go of Rong Enqing and quickly walked to Concubine Liang.

Concubine Liang pushed Cui's hand away and put her hand on the arm of Princess Anyang.

The group then started to walk upstairs.

"Are you blaming me for not letting you speak for Madam Rong just now?"

Concubine Liang caught a glimpse of the reluctance on Anyang County Princess's face from the corner of her eye and asked with a smile.

Princess Anyang was not embarrassed when her secret was exposed. She answered straightforwardly, "So many of them can say bad things about the Madam, why can't I say a few good words for her?"

Concubine Liang smiled and said nothing. She then asked, "You have a good relationship with Madam Rong?"

Princess Anyang nodded: "Of course! We are close friends regardless of age! Absolutely good friends!"

Concubine Liang was surprised and asked, "Aren't you good friends with the fifth young lady of Shun'an Marquis's Mansion? How come you are also good friends with Madam He Rong?"

"Miss Yun Wu is simple and lovely, and Madam Rong is humorous and open-minded. They are both people worth making friends with. Therefore, they are all Anyang's friends!"

"What about my son Hongyang?"

After hearing this, Princess Anyang was immediately panicked, stumbled, and almost tripped over the stairs. Fortunately, Concubine Liang helped her up.

Princess Anyang was ashamed and embarrassed for losing her composure in front of Concubine Liang. She was about to apologize, but when she looked up, she saw Concubine Liang's smiling eyes. Her panic was immediately relieved.

"So the unbridled, free-spirited Princess Anyang also has a moment of being at a loss? Hahaha, very good! I like it!"

Concubine Liang and Princess Anyang were walking in front, and their voices were not very loud. Except for Cui, who was walking behind them and was closest to them, almost no one could hear their conversation.

It was not until the end that Concubine Liang deliberately raised her voice, and everyone heard her laughter and the last sentence, "Very good! I like it!"

Cui almost tore her handkerchief into pieces, and all the way, she glared at Princess Anyang with hatred.

She had not forgotten that her daughter's fiancé was snatched from Anyang County Lady. Seeing that her daughter's wedding was approaching, what would she do if Anyang County Lady always made trouble?

Originally, there was the Imperial Concubine behind them to keep them in check and provide them with support.

But now, looking at the Imperial Concubine's attitude towards Princess Anyang, it is hard to say who she will help at that time.

I really don't know how this little bitch caught the attention of the imperial concubine. I'm so angry!
